I think its because their cover is higher in the mix and louder because its more metal than the other two. Not too mention that FamilyJules' version he admits is one of the first times he ever did vocals on a song by himself, so his vocals are lower in the mix. Skar's screaming vocals are really good as a backing track though, I'll give it that. Edit: Richaad's has more emphasis on the guitar than the other versions do. If you watch the other covers, you'll see that they usually only have a single lead guitar, whereas Richaad's has a lead and rhythm, as well as less of an emphasis on the keyboards from the other two. Instead, Richaad plays part of the keyboard's section with his lead.
As much as I love Stains of Time, It Has To Be This Way has always had the most powerful lyrics. It’s basically saying: “you and I may have different paths and different means of getting to our goals, but we’re ultimately the same. We’re two men fighting for what we believe in. Unfortunately, there is no other way to settle this, for only the stronger man can prevail
"WHY?!?! Why won't you die?!" ".....I.....I don't know." "What?" "I mean, I'm sorry. But I've tried before. A few times, actually." [dumbfounded silence] "I know, it's not a pretty topic. I just got tired of trying to constantly lead, tired of trying to be a good example." "Dude, what the f-" "Yeah, I KNOW. I mean, what do you think this all is, Jack?" "W-what-" "Do you REALLY think. Seriously, do you REALLY think that after all the shit both of us have seen, someone wouldn't just get TIRED of it?" "Then what was with the whole child trafficking bullshit?!" "I quite literally had my soul punched out of me prior to that. My wife was an abusive spoiled bitch and she took my kids away from me that day, despite me genuinely loving her. I won't use it as an excuse, though." ".....Then, the nanomachines?" "I never got them willingly. Had an accident while I was in the navy. They fixed me up good after I got shot in the heart. It was REAL bad." "....So....all....all this time....." "Yup. Trying to find someone to kill me. Someone or someway. And that red blade you have can do it." "Dude...." "I'm tired, Jack. I'm tired and I want it to end. And I'm too "fucking invincible" to be able to do it myself." "........" "........" ".....Alright. But I have a lot of anger in me. A lot of anger I need to get out of my system. It won't be pretty." "A glorious end from the famed Jack The Ripper? I wouldn't have it any other way." "...Okay....LET'S DANCE!!!!"
And then they fought, and Armstrong finally got his wish... and Raiden carried on Armstrongs' legacy through his now altered beliefs, altered because of Armstrongs speech.
I just realized this piece of brilliance. Dark Skies: "Now find... find your own path! Don't... don't give in to wrath!" It Has to Be This Way: "I carved my own path! You followed your wrath!"
I'm going to do it definitely, but I want to wait until I can do the best I can, plus that music lasts almost 10 minutes so it's going to be quite difficult.
Lyrics: Standing here I realize That You were just like me Trying to make history But Who’s or judge From right from wrong When our guard is down I think we’ll both agree That violence breeds violence But in the end It has to be this way I’ve curved my own path You’ve fallowed your wrath But maybe we’re both the same The world has turned And so many have burned But nobody is to blame It’s tearing across This barren wasted land I feel new life could be born Beneath the blood stained sand Beneath the blood stained sand Standing here I realize That you were just like me Trying to make history But who’s to judge From right from wrong When our guard is down I think we’ll both agree That violence breeds violence But in the end It has to be this way Violence breeds violence But in the end it has to be this way
I find this cover interesting because, at least from my own evidence, ive concluded that this theme song actually belongs to raiden so seeing a cover where the sole purpose is that its for senator armstrong is both cool and fascinating
My max plank time (exercise) was roughly two minutes, i planked while listening to this and i literally made it to 4 minutes and 8 seconds more than doubling my time, what a masterpiece.
I listened to the 8 minute cinematic one and came to the conclusion that while that one is great, nothing will top this as the ultimate It Has To Be This Way. This one really hits the “final battle” feeling like no other. Especially on the repeat play at 3:10. It’s something I love about the original, that despite it just being that the music repeats, it has a totally different feel to it. The first feels like the power struggle, the intense battle, the build up when the song restarts as they take a breather and the second time it plays feels like Armstrong losing steam and eventually, finally losing the fight. This one recaptures that feeling where other remixes and mixes have failed. Very well done to you sir.
I just fucking love it when a remix doesn't change the song much at all, just improves on the concept it created I just realised, this is prolly how this song would've sounded if it was in DMC, darn
@@ogabrielsabadin i guess so, since this is raiden's theme senator's is collective consicousness and it can't be rules of nature cuz that's for the metal gears, since it also plays on the battle against grad at least that's how i like to think

this song is so good, i wish Americans were real
As an American I agree
Me too 😂
As an American, same here.
As a Welsh that speaks American I also agree
Before you ask I watched American stuff when I was a kid so it’s language is stuck in my head forever
I just love that the song really FEELS like a final battle
Maybe because it actually is? Lol
@@doctorstarline5647 Some musics just dont fit a final boss battle, but this one fits perfectly, thats what he's saying.

Imagine that you fighting Armstrong but he on fire and can breathe fire and summoned mentor from the sky

I can’t believe how much RichaadEb and Tre watson’s cover overpowers the other two.
I can hear all of them at once
That's because it has to be this way

we gotta get Gianni and Wes on this asap
"Wants to die but has never been able to" is always such a fucking sick villain motivation when done right
The one error I see in this is that wouldn't Sam have killed him years prior?
"HAHAHA THIS IS THE GREATEST FIGHT OF MY LIFE"

me on my 18th replay: THIS IS THE HARDEST FIGHT OF MY LIFE!
"My blood is Red, White, and Blue, Jack. I wonder what color yours is."

It sound like Senator Armstrong himself is singing with Raiden
It does sound like that.. yoo
Lyrics:
Standing here I realize
That You were just like me
Trying to make history
But Who’s or judge
From right from wrong
When our guard is down
I think we’ll both agree
That violence breeds violence
But in the end
It has to be this way
I’ve curved my own path
You’ve fallowed your wrath
But maybe we’re both the same
The world has turned
And so many have burned
But nobody is to blame
It’s tearing across
This barren wasted land
I feel new life could be born
Beneath the blood stained sand
Beneath the blood stained sand
Standing here I realize
That you were just like me
Trying to make history
But who’s to judge
From right from wrong
When our guard is down
I think we’ll both agree
That violence breeds violence
But in the end
It has to be this way
Violence breeds violence
But in the end
it has to be this way

Am so hyped for this!

My max plank time (exercise) was roughly two minutes, i planked while listening to this and i literally made it to 4 minutes and 8 seconds more than doubling my time, what a masterpiece.
In the end, Armstrong passed his ideals onto Raiden as both come to realize they are the same; Men trying to change the world
Armstrong is the kind of guy to get a fire mix like this. 🔥🔥🔥
I swear i cant stop coming back this is just one of the best mix ever
Thank you ❤️
3 months were worth the wait
you know its a good song when it still sounds great at 0.75x speed
DUUUDE this is epic and i love it
this is so good bro

If this was the actual battle theme I’d be busting it down metal gear style🕺🪩
God DAMN THIS GOES HARD
pov: you fight Armstrong in revenge mode without upgrades
THIS IS AMAZING HOLY SHIT
i ain't seeing nobody talking about the background that you animated, it's pretty neat
Thanks❤️
Here before 1k views, this sounds great btw!
This must be one of the top covers for this track, gloriously epic af
my god, it's beautiful, your mixes are as perfect and so incredibly epic as ever
This song goes hard in response to entering your ears🔥🔥💯🥶🥶💯💯
A year later and it still hits hard
this is the most metal metal metal song
Nanomachines son, it hardens in response to the beat, you can’t outpitch me
Amazing, comrade!
As usual
And you did a custom extended version
Amazing
Good job
THIS. IS. GREAT.
this is fire you made on of my favourite songs even better

now this feels like boss music
What is this eargasm I'm having?!
Holy fucking shit what a mashup! Incredible!

Solid 9 out of 10. This is BADASS man
Making the mother of all omelette's here Jake, Can't fret every other egg.
Metal gear solid 10/10 ngl
Feels like true determination raiden vs god of end
New P rank for MGR? PSYCHEDELIC!

I love this.
I love how it genuinely sounds like Armstrong singing instead of Raiden!
Wait, in the original it was suposed to be raiden singing?
@@ogabrielsabadin i guess so, since this is raiden's theme
senator's is collective consicousness
and it can't be rules of nature cuz that's for the metal gears, since it also plays on the battle against grad
