Scars of Time from Chrono Cross by Piano Squall

[Daveistify]

Hands unbalanced. You blasted the crap out of me with your left hand. Chord progressions used also kinda weird.

[FloydPinkerton79]

Squall wins... Perfect!

[MatthewAvello]

Amazing piano playing, great version.

[ddelrosario430]

good job. however i still like emcc413's cover better :/ not that yours isn't good or anything.

[Icaro5959]

Perfect!!!

[Cardcaptor1996]

ok, i just looked at one of the top comments and one implys (if thats how you spell it xD) that someone said that this game sucks

That is impossible!

That person needs to sit down and play this game and see just how awesome it is! :D

[tekyon00]

I found that inspirational. your very good. keep up the beautiful work

[andrewtran094094007]

piano tutorial please

[epicxpegasus]

I think more people should forget about the Squeenix games of today and return to the games of old, such as the masterpieces that were Secret of Mana, Chrono Cross, Vagrant Story, and Final Fantasy IV. I loved the old games better than the new ones [Though I really love FFXII because of its rare originality]. Nowadays, storyline and plot seems left behind in the graphics and gameplay.

The music was much better back then, too. SNES music was above and beyond.

[Dustnite]

Your using the damper pedal too much, your drowning out the bass clef. Otherwise, nice performance.

[RodrigoAragonSantos]

Amazing perfomance, but i think you changed a lot of the original

But still its the best arrangement of Time's Scars that i've ever heard

[enryuumakubex]

@RodrigoAragonSantos try emcc413

[VivianTheMitchell]

Amazing music.

[MasterChefTonberry]

This game just so happens to be on my number one spot of best games ever next to its predassor

[coyote7272]

he's really good lol

[omaralimohamed]

Standing ovation

[Oddjob23747]

I personally don't like the piano squall version of the song. He's great at playing, I just have a pet peeve that when people don't play a song accurately on the piano, it drives me crazy. Right now i'm learning this song and i'm trying to make it as accurate as possible to the real thing.

[xxmikaela89xx]

@Oddjob23747 I feel you haha the back part just bugs the hell outta me but kudos to actually playing the insane chord thing I running chords lol

[roshidon]

@Oddjob23747 Improv! It makes the world go round.

[Oddjob23747]

@roshidon Can't argue with that! :)

[AquaLoli]

Beautiful.

Learning to play this as of today.

[iluvKH4eva]

I'm glad to know there are people out there like me who play anime and game music.it IS it's own genre.

[TheOpposedMan]

wow... this music tell us a hole history.

that's amazing

[Urmbort]

The game IS awesome.

[KanzakiYuri]

Amazing~! i wish i could play like that

[AZZALINAROKSENA]

Theres a guy named emcc14 something that plays better than him.

[cryptoranium]

196 people loved this video.

6 people suck dick very hard

[kreendurron]

This game was memorizing...

[ongpohheng]

epic! i love where u are able to control the playing when 2 differnet melody r running

[AZZALINAROKSENA]

You do realize he doesn't and won't answer back okay, hes got charity work. Go cactrot.

[AZZALINAROKSENA]

epic professional. Gotta admit, a piano player like me as well have gotta say and being honest, Your better than me. By a fair margin........For now.

[PhantomDark221]

Just....Wow....

There are six people in the world who cannot comprehend good music.

[GAwsomeUnit]

@PhantomDark221 to tell you the truth those six are just angry and jealous because they cant play any better than him and they have no friends

[doug15712345]

you is perfect congration!!!!!!!l i love it music

[InebriatedManate]

You did REALLY good, but seriously, lay of the caffeine or something. The tempo changes kinda killed parts of the song.

[luckyhmongkey]

he looks like he's having fun playing this piece. I think that's all that matters in reality.

[RaynethxOllie]

that tune is really hard

[krazyman84]

Dude, what`s up with the tempo changes?

[RinkashiBish]

@krazyman84 He purposely put them in there. Its meant to be. it helps thee effect on the listener. If you look at the Opening video to the game you will see what is going on.

[krazyman84]

@RinkashiBish I played the game. I don`t mean to be a troll, Piano Squall is a very good pianist, but if we change the tempo out of all things, we mess up with the very basic structure of the music, which is the rhythm.

Keep the tempo Piano Squall, and you will be a first class musician!

[darckvasco]

1:50 LOL JUMP

[MrZombs]

not much of arrangement... sounds stiff to me

[Makiea9111inulover]

@MrZombs how do you know do you play an instrument of some soret because if so your deaf

[LyriaScheherazade]

@Makiea9111inulover I agree with MrZombs though, there's a better arrangement out there. I heard it first, so this one doesn't appeal to me.

[Katiethewolfrox]

Amazing.

[23Polly23]

Perfeeeeect !

I love it *-*

[Mawiel1]

Your not married are you? Marry Me!!!

[scarut]

@Mawiel1 i lol'ed XDD

[aoitigo13]

神だぁっww

[FlashAutoMute]

emcc413 IS MUCH BETTER than this one,,,!

[crashman776]

i agree

[RefrishX]

you should realize the difference between the piano that he use and the other one use.

[Eltroim]

Well, he's got the goods. i wonder why hes in a tux

[Vorarlbergerhardjump]

I think it looks nice ;D.. yeah real good ... i love the way he playes this song

[RefrishX]

it's not that he's no good,

when the rush comes he feel like he lose focus over one hand partially ...

[scarut]

@RefrishX wtf are you talking

i play piano and ONE MISTAKE o some of them doesnt make you bad ¬¬

[Minnan1]

i love that song

CHRONO SERIES RULE!!!!!

[AMCope37]

Very moving....

[Xisto42]

I hope some day play like you!That music is awesome.

[XVenCantusX]

I haven't played Chrono Cross, but I just love this song!

[sokker80ii]

Very impressing, probably a professional.

[rinoa7]

holy sh- this is awesome! brings back so many memories XD

[oOnaazOo]

its juz so beautiful...brought more meaning to the song...two thumbs up!

[lilpenny2012]

wow, i wish i was this good.

[MegaSaikokira]

i just wish the game was as good as the music good job

[voltage319]

@MegaSaikokira the game and music are equally as amazing

[Minnan1]

YOU'RE RIGHT DUDE....

chrono cross is not the same ass chrono trigger...

[blakspyder]

I love this piece. Well done. Thank you.

[soccermidNAG]

part of being a good pianist is playing pieces that have already been written and making them unique to your own playing style. He has just made a personal arrangement of an already great song and made it his own. don't get upset at him, you just don't even know the first thing about music appreciation or composition.

[Eltroim]

oh just stfu. just enjoy it and stop dissing oder ppl

[smartanimegirl]

Okay, not to be rude to my friend, but she fails compared to your arrangement. ^^;

This is just amazing. I love this theme from Chrono Cross.

[Kaname441]

wow....

[jesusfreak1487]

Wow. Awesome!

I'd like to hear you do Frog's theme from Chrono Trigger.

[OmniTwilight]

Dude. Godly. You rawk.

[Pikaqiu]

They should make a chrono cross 2 for PS 3 and make kid find serge in some modern themed era =D.

[gumblebroo]

wonderful playing, but in my opinion you cannot exchange the flute with a stringed instrument :)

(I tried it too and was not satisfied)

but wonderful work!!! 5 stars :)

[thefartingdonkey]

Why was this voted down so much?

[MrsSix]

thefartingdonkey

It's voted down because even though this (and any other piano rendition) will not replace the original. It is beyond amazing and the skills should be recognized and applauded not scrutinized.

[standdownman]

You just said why it shouldn't be voted down...

[yueyuki03]

Chrono Trigger was my favorite

[Arkfeller]

Xenogears was a good one.

[Arkfeller]

Nope, Yasunori Mitsuda.

[SilverNeko82]

I wanna see if he can play "girl who the stole the stars"

[Kaibuko]

This was the best overall game I had ever played. Is there sheet music out there I can have?Please reply.

[917802]

it even says that at the beginning of the video!

[FatesGaurd]

I got chills of excitement. Your playing is gorgeous.

[moonstaff1234]

Where can I get the  sheet music? Can someone send it to me?

[XTruth]

chrono cross best game music ever. don't care if the game sucks. the music is the best ever. ever!

[Lyrad1345]

the game was awesome

[xxanthony14xx]

actually the game was one of the best and got rated 10/10 lol

[thelegendjen]

The game doesn't suck. It's one of the best out there.

[DunkleMaterie117]

@thelegendjen

The same with Secret of Mana. The good old Games. ; )

Todays games, dont matter if PC-only or on "online-consoles", are just to make money.

[shatteredreamer07]

I LOVE THIS SONG! Michael never fails to disappoint me :D

[PhoenixInTheAshes]

A beautifully orchestrated rendition of my favorite video game song. Truly awesome, I must say. Way to go, man. xD

[luigiperso]

this guy is one of my favourite musicians. And I think he's a really nice human being as well

[KnjazNazrath]

...on what assumption?

[iovandrake]

Not that it proves he is a nice human being, but he has played for many charities

[lstrikealpha]

great work as usual

[Shhteve]

Good work as always, Michael. :)

[itachilover527]

youre amazing
