    This is by far the only cover that hits the original style and mood of the song. Everyone else is too slow or plays it even in a happy harmony. Thank you. This right here, is the favourite song of my childhood.

    Probably one of the saddest themes in all of Zelda and you really brought out the emotion in it. Well done! It made me emotional 😭

    • @demantim
      @demantim  4 года назад +6

      I initially wanted to keep it a little more grounded because the original isn't *that* grand, but the tune just lead me here =P . Once I started embracing the drama it went really smoothly.

    For a game that made a first appearance on a hand-held system, the music is without a doubt the most emotional Zelda song in the franchise.

    I’ve been playing through the legend of Zelda from beginning to end (haven’t played many of them before) I’m now on majoras mask. Around link to the past we found out one of our cats had cancer. So I decided I was going to play as many of them as I could while she was with us since we could lay on the couch or the bed together. She loved seeing link and other characters move across the screen and would paw at the tv. On November 8th we said goodbye to her (I had gotten to Majoras mask). So many of the moments in the games hit hard given the situation but this game really felt the most pertinent. Once I got to Ocarina of time I would whistle Zelda’s lullaby to her when she would lay down to sleep. But this song really makes me think of her. It was a dream, but when I think of her, she is still there :-)

    OMG, i love this theme. It always reminds me that night in 2017 I went in Florence to the Symphony of the goddesses concert: at the time I didn’t know this piece bet it was so powerful I just wanted to cry. I wish I could go to another Zelda concert

    I can't believe how good this is. You absolutely nailed this.
    I'm a huge Will Millar fan and this reminded me of an Irish combo track he did titled "Haunted Kenban" from a cd called Celtic Whispers. This cover has that same amazing haunting magic surrounding it (most of your tracks do, but this one is something extra special).
    Just fantastic work all around with the arrangement and performance. Thank you for all the music you make.
