Forever Rachel from Final Fantasy VI on piano

[sharkmaster99]

Awesome job man! I've always loved this song and you play it so well.

On a side note anyone that is reading this, NEVER listen to this song after a breakup. It will end badly.

[labizau]

The world is square.

[33pyma]

great !

[lCheatAtGolf]

You've really never played the game? There are many other good songs in it. How did you hear about it, then?

[shockwave0eternal]

0:44 is my favourite part

[bobayoga23]

That song is beautiful and you played it extremely well.

[highvoltmc]

first of all you played this beautyful and hard piece very well, respect.

What disturbed me, is that at 0:33 there is a melodie, that you play with the left hand, that also exists in the song of gothic 3 vista point (reprise). The melodie is played right at the beginning of the piece, and here i find it again. Interesting^^ I think maybe they stole it from FF6 oO but anyway both songs are incredbly beautyful. And FF6 was an incredible game.

Nice playin man.

M.

[AckbootIV]

I really enjoyed that. Good job!

[RemoraNoFlora]

Looove seeing beautiful people play beautiful music. :)

[ff2paladin]

Was this from Collections? I hate the arrangements in that book. And I ask that because this arrangement sounds odd.

[CurtainGuy]

I don't believe it's from Collections.. I think this is a piece arranged by Michael Huang from his "reborn" collection.

[BortCalledYou]

@ff2paladin I also HATE the final fantasy collection arrangements. The only good one is mystic forest.

[MotherofGodeatbabies]

@BortCalledYou I agree.

Most of them should have a symphony playing instead like the Kefka theme and The Decisive battle but there are good songs on the album besides the mystic forest. Terra, Coin song, Spinach Rag(Auction house theme) and Celes's theme aren't bad.

[Dridokof]

@ff2paladin It's a VERY good take of the original song, also he played it well enough.

My point is, if it sounds odd, it's all you.

[ff2paladin]

@Dridokof

Whether or not it's good, most of it is unrecognizable

[Dridokof]

@ff2paladin He's playing the song, what is unrecognizable about it?

[Aurelius27x]

Nobuo Uematsu really knows how to take you to a different world... I have yet to encounter a composer that takes me there.

[leesha]

I agree, although Debussy's Clair de Lune almost does the trick :P

[francoofme]

tks for playing this!! KEEP IT UP!!

[mikescott27]

such a classic in every way.

\

[gbonifant]

never played the game?? man you're missing out, one of the most classic snes games ever

[Hidratos]

its like an interactive book =)

[mikescott27]

i really want an after years addition like part 2.PLEASE SQUARE-ENIX

[drdst17]

This brought me waaaaay back to 1994. Great song, great game.

[PsychoticGeek23]

amazing playing!

i cried at that part in the game.. it was so sad! but the music is awesome.

[SectorSevenCosplay]

Locke: ....Rachhheeeeeelll!

lolz. I love Rachel and her theme...it's good to see someone out there play it so beautifully. :3 Keep up the awesome work!

[VideoGameG0d]

a few noticeable mistakes but nonetheless very well played ... this has quickly became one of my favourite VideoGame Peices recently, mainly because i picked up 6 again and absolutly annihilated it with a No Esper/ Level Cap Challenge xP.. I play the same version as you from Fantasy Reborn although I play it slightly slower. But to each his own ^^ 4Stars

[ArkFromTerranigma]

sweet and sad song. you play it very well. I agree that FF6 is the best of the series. it changed my life! :)

[tuffasgong]

one of my favourite parts in the game, you did it justice

[jym16]

Wow, you're good. :)

[flanboyan]

Nice job. You should post a video of Mystic Forest

[calunio]

I can't believe she's dead. :(

[thatguy431]

I have yet to play this game, but ive heard so many pieces from it, and the music is incredible! Maybe if i play through it, whatever song gets stuck in my head, ill make a uke arrangement, or at least attempt to, haha.

Again, very well played! :D

[try0me]

Beautiful! Definately one of the best songs in the game, and the best game in the series.

[beamuth]

i dont know if im alone but ...final fantasy 2,6 and 7 influence me so much when i was young...for me square soft is a little bit responsible of my love for this planet hearth and my respect for all living creature on it i got an enurmous respect for the old final fantasy serie for me these game was educative and at the same time so funny and all my bad english ...i learn it from final fantasy :) im a french from montreal im playing crisis core right now... where my good old game????????

[amiante2000]

Good old game... I learned a lot of things too.

On doit se soutenir entre francophones:P

[boxcarguy07]

I agree!!!

FF6(3) really helped shape my childhood... sounds weird lol but true

[churupitaa]

the game is so beautiful..

this cene, what can i say ???

its magnificent, now i can cry a lot, one of the best's cene in game + a great version on piano.

sorry about my english, im brazilian and my english is not the best.

but a i can say in 2 languages:

SUA VERSAO É MAGNIFICA

UR VERSION IS MAGNIFICENT

[CurtainGuy]

Haha thanks man!

[mezlabor]

@churupitaa Its a beautiful game. Its so moving in so many moments The whole thing is a masterpiece and needs to be remade.

[mrgrayf0x]

In my opinion, Final Fantasy VI/III was the best in the series. And it's this kinda music that made it so.

[bunnyang]

this is lovely!

[SporeSpawn]

Wow, I'm amazed. I was just listening to the original song and i thought, huh, i wonder if anyone has played this on YT. And i am in aw of how well executed this is. You really know how to perform well. Very great job.

[Rach0007]

haha thats awesome and you play beautifully =]

[CyrusShadowBlade]

My girlfriend's name is Rachel, so this made her really happy when I showed it to her.

[Elwood128]

This song and Zanarkand are the two saddest songs in any FF game and as such they evoke the most emotion when I listen to them. I wish I could find a studio version this song on piano somewhere :(

[andramfran]

Excelente interpretación!!!

[RisunoMeijin]

Lol, you should give the game a try, there is a pretty hardcore story behind this song actually.

[d4nch3ng]

tutorial video pls!! :)

[RockabillyJoe]

You rock man! I can't help but to cry a tear or two every time I hear your version of it. Totally fricking awesome! Almost godlike! Compared to others here on Youtube it definitly is. Keep up the aweosme work!

[ehf884]

Wow.... This is great. I'm trying to learn some FF music, but Celes's theme is really really hard for some reason. Is there any FF song good for beginners?

[CurtainGuy]

Maybe try Aeris' theme or Interrupted by Fireworks from FFVII. Also To Xanarkand from FFX.. although that's just a tad more difficult.

[Helloweeen]

I find To Zanarkand WAY more easy than Forever Rachel Reborn! , but that's just me :P

[CurtainGuy]

Oh I wasn't comparing it to Forever Rachel.. I meant in comparison to Aeris' Theme and Interrupted by Fireworks.

[Helloweeen]

ah okay ! then yes , you're right , it is a lil' more difficult :p

[Okami31]

good job

[paranormaalutrecht]

You have a very sensitive toucher. The left hand, the appergios and the albertine bass. you have to work only with the left hand, make it souplel. play the next month only with your left hand for 30 minutes each day! It works!

Or the best advice everyone you can give: PLAY BACH :)

But your touche: very sensitive... and beautiful!

[Capofer]

Rxcelente. Toda Argentina ama tu interpretacion.

Muy bueno. Forever Rachel is a nice theme

[arkblood]

ff6 best ost ever

[heart1will1go1on]

be nice dammit...this is good...i love it :'( it makes me cry for sum reason...

[AsaliahSexyBoy]

Great job !

[ktuluag]

[ouijaouija]

cetait superbe

[clstmk]

I like this song. Rachel and Lock Forever!!

[elpablo25]

my names rachel and i love you x x x

[chanceturcotte]

what a tearjerker... my favorite love song of the final fantasies... a second choice... maybe a sappy cute one from ffix or aeris's theme in ffvii

[zacarah]

yeah the final fantasy vi soundtrack was very well done. its tied for first along with chrono trigger soundtrack in my books

[ilovefirewood]

All of Final FAntasy VI's Music is amazing. I think it's the best video game sound track ever made.

[zacarah]

i love this song one of my favourites in FFVI but all of the music in FFVI is great probably best music out of all of the FF that I've played. Great job, once i get a job in going to take lessons again.

[inhert12]

The parts with the 32 notes really ruined the song for you... otherwise it was good... felt like you played slower than you should have normally done though

[inhert12]

actually i take that back the tempo was good :O i just havent listened to the actual mp3 in awhile

[Kaguio]

kool :D

[Vahnis]

I just love this song! Michael Huang did a great job arranging it, and you did a really good job playing it! =)

Nice! =D

[gettingpissedoff]

no not really. looking closely at it he only played 1 out of every 4 notes. He probably had a recording of someone else playing it or something. there's one like that of a chronotrigger song on here too

[Tsunokiette]

Looking closely, and having played many songs like this, I'd have to say he really is playing the notes. Unless you are speaking of something else. It doesn't look like his fingers are moving, but most recorders can't catch how fast the fingers are moving. EX: In one recording, at hand level, you see the keys going down during a fast section, and you barely see the fingers budging.

[sagnasty]

youre right.

i know how to play this and i can see when his small mistakes are made so yeah this is legit. it sucks when people say your work is fake.

[DarkCoffin]

wrong

[ORLYOwl]

My fav. song from FF6. Thanks for posting this!

[analiasahotmail]

this gave me goosebumps. Is there a music score available.  I don't play video games...but the music is incredible.

[NuBCaeks]

DoooD this is liek teh most uber one is there anyway u can possible get this into mp3?

[hobbified]

This is Michael Huang's "Fantasy Reborn" arrangement, isn't it? My favorite. Good job.

[krzyflipx]

this is good 5 stars for me im doing a guitar version of this

[DSupleX]

good, cant wait to see it posted
