"M" FFVII Cait Sith's Theme

[dickie4thepeople]

If only it were to be played on nylon strings!

[sgtPhoenix53]

Very clever finger work. It will be a good while before I could play that clean.

[hienandrewgiang]

Is this tab on your store? I have trouble navigating

[shiskobob1]

nice guitar

[mefyx2]

see my guitar cover of lonlonjp's version - watch?v=dph4t0n2b0M

[MarijuanaGood4U]

[lonlonjp]

@MarijuanaGood4U

In my mind^^

[MarijuanaGood4U]

@lonlonjp u know something...I BELIEVE U. fantastic work.

[youtubinfool]

your style on this is the definition of chill, i wish to shake your acurate and articulate hands.

[evilbassm]

Well done!

[IwillbeWaiting]

awesome performance sir!

[Einsatsgruppen]

man it looks so cool the way you play it! like having spider hands!

[shaneevz]

I WOULD LOVE TO LEARN GUITAR TO PLAY THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[SDMFbroly]

I love that your wearing a suit for this lol awesome stuff

[kilokloX]

when I grow up I wanna be like you

An Awesome Japanese guitarrist x]

(._. in my case it would be an awesome guitarrist that lives in Japan)

[9beccalee9]

this is awesome! you're the best :) keep it up

[BewareThePipBites]

I'm trying to learn guitar, and it is not going very well. You're amazing :]

[cullotte3]

Hey Lonlon I am happy to say that I can almost play this song, Radical Dreamers, Time Scar, Yuffies theme, and some of you zelda songs. Now I'll try One Winged Angel. You do great work for your country and an amazing guitarist.

[sgtjake95]

*Stars watching* I can play this easy! *It gets to 0:17* Nevermind.... *walks away...*

[jougetsu]

great

[onionknight777]

That's just jazzy! Or mayhap bluesy? I don't know, but still, impressive playing man!

[jabre12]

@onionknight777 i'd say its a mixture of bossa nova, jazz andblues.

[kinselator1]

you sir have just about bested blitzwater. blitz is a genius but you god your like... wow. sub +1

[CreativeShot]

how could you dislike this! Awesome job! BTW What kind of guitar is that? It sounds SO crisp

[robertjconnell]

@CreativeShot : If you go to his page, he has a video somewhere about the guitars he uses in the various songs.

[Bioarmor]

this music makes me feel so slick and sneaky lol

[ralfietv]

Dude it is just perfect. Its funny because I remember meeting Cait Sith and hearing this theme but never gave it a second thought. But now hearing you play it makes it sound so remarkable.

[Finalknot]

Great job man! Favorite game of all time.

[MrWing93]

Did you tune your strings all a half step higher?

[FinalNinjaZero0]

I cant stop.

[icetouch77]

:0

Cait Sith is one of the character that i've been indifferent toward, though not always. I hated when he stole the Key Stone and had to chase him all over the place, but he stood up at the end in the Temple of the Ancient and Midgar..

But now with this cover, i started to appreciate him lol!

You are one awesome musician Lonlon !

Why don't you try to cover Judgment Day? the theme of the North Cave at the end of the game? that one always gets to us FFVII fans :)

and it seems easy too >.>

[MrRockeur]

That's so good !

It's very difficult like tab ^^ Good Job !

[superextremelaser]

love the way you ended it. it's got to be hard ro end a song that is meant to play as an endless loop;)

[rhashr]

Difficulty 'M'? You think too much of us!

[vashtriguner]

Reeve would be proud

[DZLEsmash]

This song is so Jazzy, and even feels like it's mysterious! Great work my friend!

[lonlonjp]

@DZLEsmash

Thanks! my friend, for your encouragement =)

which i always appreciate from the bottom of my heart.

[VincentVexler]

@lonlonjp id like your opinion...do you you think they will make another ff7???

[Blindheadshot44]

2nd cooles tune in the world (your mario underwater theme is first:D)

[blazeken1]

what genre would this be considered?

[Reeceoo7]

@blazeken1 Jazz. As said in the video description

[LokIArioch]

Simply awesome! I've been trying to learn this piece by ear with little success and since ive found this vid a couple of days ago, I've been trying to learn by watching. However, I can't quit see some of the chords, do you mind sending me tabs? Would greatly appreciate it!

[Reeceoo7]

@LokIArioch for tabs just type in "Cait sith's theme tab" into google. Learn to use the interwebs :P. I'm about 9 bars into the song atm (:

[eggonater]

Wow... when I've got nothing to do I can just sit for hours and listen to your music :)

[mayflyforyou]

every single one of your song versions are incredibly fantastic! =D i wish i was talented like this!

[Neonicix]

You are so talented~ I wish I could be as amazing as you are. ^_^

[semaj132]

ur very awesome spectacular............

[jarrodbrittain]

I hated this song in the game, but hearing you play it has made me like it!

[Kotasavu]

Better than the original! :)

[TheEgotasticRipoff]

Bad ass dude. Long live Cait Sith!

[Televizzle07]

this reminds me of the pink panther for some reason, great job!

[galcha51]

SongeLeReveur is a nice musician too ! :D Thanks for your version of this song, i'ts a nice one too :)

[lonlonjp]

@galcha51 i totally agree with you^^

He is my friend on YouTube and such a nice musician =)

i always enjoy his music works :)

[galcha51]

@lonlonjp I didn't really know you, but now i'm going to listen to all your work :D

[jabre12]

How much did this guitar cost you? is it still avaliable on the market? I cant seem to find anything about it.

[erkankhan]

@jabre12 This guy gobbles major dick

[jabre12]

AWSOME!!!!!

[ToxikWaltz]

very good, well played

[shzindenPL]

one of the few arrangements with a proper rythm ;]

[MrAbbadon99]

je suis super fan, bravo bravo LONLONJP

[tjsnider02]

well you can expect to see my continued support. are you a fan of final fantasy or does particular musical pieces just catch your attention and you do your own cover?

[tjsnider02]

hey man. you're very very talented. i subscribed to you and i hope to see more. the cait sith theme sounded so dang awesome. He's my favorite character from that game too. keep up the good work.

[lonlonjp]

Thanks for your subscribing =D

[PenFan444]

This is my second favorite theme. after Vincent's. I'll give this props though, it's amazing.

[xX0Isaac0Xx]

Amazing and you can swing pretty hard too! =)

[whatdidyouexpecthuh]

[stevenmailloux]

[migduh]

So damn nice. You should try and cover the whole FFVII soundtrack like this.

[Dorgengoa2080]

omg this is so awesome,sounds exactly like the one in the game,or even better,cant stop smiling when i hear this ,its awesome

[lonlonjp]

Thank you so much for your comment ^o^

[finnishmetalfreak090]

Man, I love real instrument renditions of video game songs! Especially when they're played this well! Haha i never really realized that Cait Sith's theme was so jazzy and cool. I always just got caught up in reading the dialog and never really LISTENED to the music. Thanks for bringing such a cool song to life!

[monkeydluffyzoloful]

@finnishmetalfreak090 in that case you shuld play the game over again

[sasukeiscool14]

awesome playing^^

[haganeno76]

yeah songelereveur is one of my favorites on youtube, but i think i like your version better.

[Llynok]

Instant subscription! You made me nostalgia, then bob my head. Can't go wrong there.

Fantastic performance.

[lonlonjp]

Thanks for your subscribing ^-^

[hollowtones13]

take a look at my video response, its not near as great as lonlon's but it is something that I am proud of =)

[kakachi100]

graet plaing

[guitarobselion]

efrfcddw that was awsome!!!!

[KuraiSuzumebachi]

you are a musical genius n.n

[ImbarratoL]

Amazing work ! You are the best guitarist I've ever seen ! I can nearly do it, and the eiko's theme too !

[phadeus]

...... wow.... again simply amazing. so SWEET. 5/5

[Legliez]

amazing :)

[Stealth00Ninja]

your one of the best artist I've ever seen :O

[lonlonjp]

Thanks for your compliment, Stealth00Ninja ^o^

[Warhawk666]

So good! I don't know how you classical guitar players can control your picking thumb and fingers at different rhythms.. Its so weird and I can't wrap my brain around it. Especially when you play the battle themes and such.

Or even let your nails grow on your picking hand. I got like long nail phobia, I just hate having long finger nails!!

[ThalesMusician]

ITS INCRIBLE!!!!

[TheGunzy09]

nice! lol I like this!

[hollowtones13]

I posted a video response from me learning this last summer. its not near as good as yours but I would be honored if you looked at it =)

[lonlonjp]

Thanks for your video response, hollowtones13 ^-^

i have just watched your nice playing :)

Would you please write "arranged by lonlonjp" elsewhere in your description =)

cheers

lon

[hollowtones13]

of course I forgot to, I will right this very second

[noutathewolf]

Hey Lonlonjp, you play jazz nicely ;) I like it.

[bre4dfish]

One of the most talented on youtube

[lonlonjp]

Thanks bre4dfish for your encouragement ^-^

[Shhteve]

@lonlonjp I agree with bre4dfish! You record some high quality stuff here. :)

[allensingley]

great job

[mitch6033]

fantastic

[Tys29]

love the riffs in this song

[bin1127]

nice hammering. great song!

[strife725]

haha i like this its so crisp and jazzy haha :3

[keyransolo]

This song also reminds me of The Turks. 5/5!!!

[alisyed1117]

maybe because technically caith sith was controlled by a turk named reeve

[resrevereverser]

Reeve is not a turk. He was the Shinra's Director of Urban Development. This was made clear throughout the series.

[alisyed1117]

o my bad mr. technicality! jeez...

[yamibalus]

@resrevereverser Yeah it was Vincent that WAS a Turk

[bucketsoldhissoul]

wow. this is awesome.

[Tomaszek131]

Excellent arrangement.

Learning it at the moment.

Thanks lonlon :D

[Warhawk666]

Man what a great song. Nicely Done!

[santyag]

lonlon, what kind of guitar is it?

[lonlonjp]

As mentioed in more info, this is an acoustic hybrid guitar made by Ibanez^^

[Tys29]

Guitar: Ibanez EW-10A 2008 played by lonlonjp

[bpl222]

I am enjoying the Final Fantasy arrangements. Nobou rocks and so do you. Keep up all the hard work and keep having fun!

[jsjw2]

I've been watching all your videos and I really like them. Totally out of admire of your skill, I want to know does it take a really big part of your life to be this good?

[lonlonjp]

haha.. it means a lot to me of course, unfortunately however, i have got a full daytime job, which is nothing to do with the music industry, the time i can spend with my guitars are so limited though :)

[Ladderb0y]

it might just be me but i think that it's good you are not in the music industry. you show so much devotion for this that if you were in the industry you might not play for the love of it as much. It is hard to not get distracted but have done a great job of bringing us what we love.

keep up the good work!

[AKLMac]

very nice cover man 5 stars!

[lonlonjp]

Thanks for your high rating =D

[tatoulovitch]

i'm french, sorry for my english ^^'

so, i have look'd a many of your vid's and my conclusion is : your the best ff'players man !! So beautiful song's !

I have learn a few of theme, thx again for your talent, your a god guitar player.

Amicalement, de FRANCE !

[lonlonjp]

Merci!

i cannot speak French, but i do love your country and visited more than 10 times =D

i have got a deploma of Sommlier, wine expert as my 2nd hobby, next to guitar xD

[vinzer72frie]

NICE  *0* 5+

[lonlonjp]

Thanks a lot!

[AshISMusicallyHungry]

how is lonlonjp?

i havnt spoke to you in w while my good friend.

best regards, Ash =D

[lonlonjp]

Thanks ash ^^

Great as usual :)

i have just uploaded a new video today ^^

Please watch it and enjoy!

[ultramegaman555]

you know what also great played,

i would ask you too for tabs, but on this one it's useless for me because first of all i need to buy the equipment for such good songs, or do you think it's playable ONLY on pure accoustic without an amp???

hahahahahahaha, well i don't think so,

aaaaanyways,

great 5

[faustarp1]

It's playable on acoustic; though he is using an electro-acoustic. If you're bent on playing it, tune it half step up (a bit risky) as capo 1 is harder to play in my opinion

[Arez64]

Such a great song, and you did a perfect job on it!! Anyway I can get tabs? Because you did an awesome job on this song!

[Warhawk666]

Once, again I am in awe!

[lonlonjp]

Thanks listening ^^

[cloudstrifezackfair]

Once again. Simply Genius.

[appljdotz]

how long do you spend arranging each pirce by ear? for both ffvii and viii songs?

amazing btw. all your vids motivate me to practice more on guitar.

[lonlonjp]

haha.. usually it takes me a few days ^^

when it comes to "Gold Saucer FFVII", the latest video, it took me a few hours =)

i can not explain well how to do that... partly because of my poor English :)

[appljdotz]

its alright :) this kind of things we have to learn by ourselves otherwise i would feel pathetic haha.

[BriDirt]

Relax, your English looks perfect to me.

=)

[lonlonjp]

Thanks so much for your comment ^^

[LanIost]

Oh my god. I've seen most of your videos but here you blew my mind.

This is an amazing arrangement, even for a guitarist like you.

[lonlonjp]

Thanks listening to this video ^-^

With many encouragement and warm message, now i can play some pretty nice songs that i could have never ever arranged and played before... it's really strage but definitely true... xD

i cannot say it properly... all i can say is that it is not me... but some other will and/or power do exist somewhere between us... lol

[CanadianPride8]

Beautiful. Absolutely perfect.

[lonlonjp]

Thanks so much for listening to this video ^0^

[dsw5022]

Most excellent!

[lonlonjp]

Thanks listening ^-^

[mor13ty]

[lonlonjp]

Thanks watching my videos often ^0^

[Clifurd]

I can't stop coming back to this video, It truly is a masterpiece of a video!

[lonlonjp]

Thanks a lot ^0^

[Jadedmystery]

-melts into a puddle of goo-

[Munfred]

All your music is absolutely awesome. For some reason I liked this one especially. The original music is not particularly special, but your arrangement gave it a complete new meaning, although it's the very same music! I'm truly amazed! Keep up the great work!

Oh, and set us a place to download those masterpieces and add to our playlists!

[renzohawk2]

OMG!!! you are the master!!! :D

[Nifuruc]

omg... I'm so in love with this guitar... it sounds great and the tribe looks so nice ^^

I already told you... you are such an awesome guitar player! besides robo's theme, this is my favorite! (or am I just mesmerized by your guitar? XD)

thanks for all your videos

[lonlonjp]

Thanks listening =)

it is very fun to play this arrangement on solo guitar ^-^

[metametron]

This is a really great arrangement! Kudos!

[lonlonjp]

Thanks watching ^-^

[Clifurd]

I would give anything to be able to play this half as well as you did! You are a master of what you do!

[lonlonjp]

i am proud of your comment ^-^

[AshesOfTheWakeX]

Pure amazing

[lonlonjp]

Thanks watching ^-^

[CenturyGamer]

This song makes me think of cats for some reason :P

[lonlonjp]

haha... xD

[Nathanielguy]

これ以上ジャズ感で溢れる演奏はありえないでしょう。すばらしい­～

[lonlonjp]

Natさん、ありがとうございます☆

私もジャズの独特の雰囲気が好きです。

[viviones]

You're playing it godly. I'm jealous.

[lonlonjp]

Thanks listening to this video ^-^

[pongopigmayiss]

Great tune, your dynamics are awesome!

[lonlonjp]

Thanks posting your comment, pongopigmayiss, my friend ^-^

[LastReminiscence]

[PABguitarfan]

lonlon, you are really awesome...

thank you for all...

[lonlonjp]

Thanks very much for your nice comment, PABguitarfan ^-^

i really appreciate your remark =)

[digitised]

I love your arrangement lonlon, but the tuning (1/2 step up) wouldnt that be pretty bad for most guitars?

Ive got a martin acoustic and i dont want to damage it because i could never afford to replace it if i screw the neck up :S
