Stones from Ultima on Piano

This is my attempt at playing Stones, a song from the Ultima games. Sorry about the quality of the webcam feed and audio, I need to get a new webcam. It is also hard to position this piece of crud, so I did my best to show my hand coordination on the keyboard.

Ultima is a very old RPG game, probably one of the seminal video game series of the genre. This song was composed by David R. Watson (aka Iolo FitzOwen) and his wife Kathleen Jones (aka Gwenllian "Gwenno" Gwalch'gaean). The song is about Stonehenge, which was possibly the site of a moongate on Earth in the Ultima games. Stones first premiered in Ultima V: Warriors of Destiny.

I'll see if I can record something in a better quality.

This makes me sad :( I MISS THIS GAME

[DariakFrostmourne]

Ya, there will never be another computer role-playing game like Ultima. Even though the franchise is pretty much through and through, it feels like it is still pretty incomplete. I don't know what it would take to fill that void. A remake may make things worse, and at the moment wouldn't be easy to pull off with copyrights flying between two parties.

Long ago ran the sun on a folk who had a dream

And the heart and the will and the power:

They moved the earth; they carved the stone; moulded hill and channeled stream

That we might stand on the wide plains of Wiltshire

Now men asked who they were, how they built and wonder why

That they wrought standing stones of such size

What was done 'neath our shade? What was pray'ed 'neath our skies

As we stood on the wyrd plains of Wiltshire

It brings tears to my eyes
