Sad Video Game Music 1: Ballad of the Wind Fish

I am a sucker for video game music, so I decided to start a series of videos about VGMs. This particular series celebrates music that brings about feelings of sorrow and sadness. Thats right, as according to the title, we will be focusing on Sad songs. My videos will focus on Zelda, Mario, Phoenix Wright, and the Tales series.

Ballad of the Wind Fish may not sound at first like a sad song, but for those who know about the circumstances of the song, they know how truly heartbreaking it really is. This video is split into three separate songs.

Link and Marin's Song: 0:06 - 0:40
Ballad of the Wind Fish: 0:41 - 1:24
Ballad of the Wind Fish (Alak): 1:25 - 4:27

The first two songs are played in the game. The third song is a guitar remix by Alak made as a tribute to Zelda. It is in this video to invoke the true sadness that the song portrays. Enjoy.

NOTE: I am not Emo. I am quite cheery and happy and so forth. I just so happen to have an affinity to Sad songs because they are powerful and beautiful. I hope others share my opinion.

Whenever I can I whistle. Often I whistle video game music. Whistling this is hard to attempt without so many instruments.

I see the resemblance when the London children choir is singing. The song is pretty sweet and touching.
