Burning Blood (Final Fantasy Legend II) on piano

This is "Burning Blood" From Final Fantasy Legend 2 (known in Japan originally as SaGa II: Hihou Densetsu). Music composed by Nobuo Uematsu.

I got really lucky this time, I love the soundtracks of all the GameBoy SaGa games, and Final Fantasy Legend II was the first RPG I ever played, so I have a special connection to its music. These games are rarely properly appreciated, many dislike the first one because of its weaknesses, but you have to keep in mind it was the first ever portable RPG and despite its limitations regarding script length and other problems, it has an amazing, thought provoking and deep storyline. The second one was a better game as far the game mechanics go, and it improved a longer soundtrack as well. The music of all three games is amazing. The pieces are concise and striking and do their job remarkably well. As for the arrangement, I tried to deviate from the character of the original a bit, as note repetitions aren't really my strength, so instead of being authentic, I tried a "pop piano" style arrangement.

By the way, if you haven't seen it already, check out the Final Fantasy Legend I piano medley that I have on my channel if you feel like it, the music in the first one is great as well.

@CleverDjembe Hey, sorry that I'm not properly replying to all your guys' comments these days, as you can imagine I'm 'quite busy' lolz. Anyway, just wanted to quickly say, could it be "Hard to say I'm sorry" from Chicago? Doesn't have 'dry my tears' in it, though. Funny coincidence, though, the FFL1+2 soundtracks have a piece called "wipe your tears away" haha

I've Gotta say, I love your version of Burning Blood. It's calm, peaceful, beautiful, and also enjoyable.

There are some times when you wish you could do more than just "like" something. This is that damn good. Thank you.

@CleverDjembe I see a resemblance to:

Cutting Crew - (I Just) Died In Your Arms Tonight

Specifically the intro part here with:

Woah, I just died in your arms tonight, it must have been something I said.

[LordKoKuyou]

Beautiful. I really don't know what else to say.

[RyanLies]
