"Expose someone to anger long enough, they will learn to hate." ~ Monsoon The lyrics she invented actually fit the original really well, and good on her for it.
@@wesleyward5901 I haven't watched the video where she explains that she isn't the one flexing her creativity in these videos. You'll have to link me that one before you go making a claim like that.
@@ModernAegis why would it be her? this is a band, not just a singer. It's not impossible or even that improbable she had some part in it, but your claim of it being all her is certainly unfounded to at least the same extent as the mention of likely writers
@@nerdyspinosaurid Why wouldn't it be the singer, though? Isn't it more efficient if the singer writes the lyrics and the other members write the music? I realize this is a cover, but it should still hold true here. Besides, the point is more that a group of dedicated writers is just ludicrous. It's infinitely more likely that someone in the band, probably the singer, did this, and they didn't just ask someone else to give them new ideas. These guys have soul.
As a longtime fan of the Metal Gear Franchise, it makes me happy that even after so many years, there are still people out there making content around it. And with Metal Gear Rising being one of my favorite games, and 'It Has To Be This Way' as one of my favorite songs, this cover brought me so much joy. To the singer, guitarist, and everyone at GO!! Light Up! who made this possible, thank you and keep on rocking!
fuck man, the parralels between armstrong and raiden are so fucking cool!! like, you're goals don't conflict, but your morals do. Thats what the fight is about. morals. not power, not hierachy, not revenge. morals.
The lyrics of this song are so insanely deep because the theme of the game (while very anti-war) is very: “Choose violence when you have no choice, choose overwhelming violence.”
@THE LORDE it’s written at a high level that most videos games just aren’t. The fact that some people have unironically said that “Raiden should joint Armstrong” missed the actual content of his speech. They got pulled up by the clear propaganda aspect of it and the reason Raiden doesn’t is because he was one of those “weak” people and he’s heard it all before. Raiden/Jack one of the best written characters in the history of video games.
@@matthewwolfe9417 Eh, not quite. At the end Raiden realizes that he saw himself as one of the weak people while Armstrong saw Raiden as always having been strong. Raiden saw weakness and strength in external terms: oppressed and oppressor, small and large. Armstrong saw strength in terms of character and soul: Raiden didn't break, didn't fall apart, managed to claw his way back to sanity from being a child soldier. To Armstrong, the weak are those who harm others in order to sustain their decadence, those who exploit others. In Raiden's eyes, I'm sure that he would see the military-industrial complex as the strong oppressing the weak, while to Armstrong it's the weak oppressing the strong, keeping them from being able to exercise their inner strength. It's why in the end Raiden is using Armstrong's own lines, and why the argument finishes with Raiden simply declaring that he'll kill Armstrong: he didn't have a rebuttal. Armstrong may have died, but he won the argument, and passed his values on to Raiden.
@@harryfalalov9419 @Harry Falalov oh alright, keep in mind some of them are a bit hard to make out for me too, so here goes standing here I realize, theirs no right no wrong, we all sing our song the sun will rise, without us, but with our lives at stake I think we'll both agree, that hatred breeds hatred, but in the end it has to be this way I've cut my own path, you've followed your wrath, but since we are both the same the world has turned and so many have burned [ok not entirely sure what she said here either but I think its something like "his hands are wielding the blame"] he staring across this baron wasted land, I know new life will be born beneath the blood stained sand.
@@arturodonofrio855 I'd say hard rock and heavy metal the closest to the well-known version. If you really like the trumpets in the original, I might recommend symphonic metal.
“So many have burned, Its high time we take the blame” is an insanely good addition to this already amazing cover, considering Raiden and Armstrong *both* have somewhat good intentions and *both* go about them in ways that put the world in harms way, Armstrong obviously more than Raiden. Really drives home that this song is from both Raiden and Armstrongs perspectives. The extra verse is an example of what really smart artistic liberty looks like, great job👏 .
My favorite Line is "The sun will rise without us" Doesn't matter how hard you fight, how much peace we sow, how many people burn... In the end, the sun will rise, whether or not any of us are here to see it
@@fahkodolab270 the game still holds up really well, even compared to games released now. I don't think it needs a remake tbh. And I doubt a sequel would happen as well but it would have been really cool
By far, the best cover I have listened of this song, you guys not only did such a great performance, but also added your own part on the second verse, I have no doub this is the true ultimate version for This song, Excelent job, please keep going and I hope to see more stuff like this with the other Metal Gear Rising songs
"One day every person in this nation will control their OWN destiny. A land of the truly free, dammit. A nation of action, not words. Ruled by strength, not committee.” -Senator Armstrong.

I LOVE THIS!!! mgr is one of if not my favorite games of all times and one of the reason is the amazing music, every single song is amazing and thats why im always so sad to see the lack of covers, you cover bringed joy to my heart, armstrong is THE final boss of any game and the final theme is one of the best final boss themes of all the videogame history, the remix and your voice were a wonderfull mix, thanks for creating this!!!
I had waited almost 10 yrs for a girl cover of this song since i saw Little V's version and holy crap i was just checking in my bi yearly search of covers of it and here it is!
Wow, that encore hits hard. I've always interpreted the original lyrics being about how Raiden is coming to terms with the fact that he might be the same as Armstrong, yet pushing forward despite the uncertainty. The additional lyrics have a really fatalistic touch, more reminiscent of credits Raiden rather than Armstrong-fight Raiden, acknowledging all the things he hadn't quite come to terms with during the battle. _There's no right no wrong_ , _It's high time we take the blame_ and _I _*_know_*_ new life will be born_ are all great spins on the original lyrics that flip the whole theme of the song on its head. Really, what a great cover!
At first I was like- wow this sounds great, but the run time is too long, are they really just going to repeat the lyrics again? And then the second verse kicked in HOLY *[NANOMACHINES]* This truly is the _mother of all covers_ right here!
I'd love to see a cover of Stranger I Remain. I feel your voice is perfect for that song. as for thoughts on this cover I loved it the inclusion of those original lyrics caught me off guard when I first heard it.
This is now my favorite version of this song. Your voice works so well with this song and the additional lyrics add an amazing amount of depth to an already amazing song.
It's crazy because at some points in the song it seemed like they weren't doing anything crazy with the vocals to stay on the "safe" side-- but then she hit "BENEATH THE BLOOD STAINED SAND" with SUCH intensity, and it was FANTASTIC. Seriously gave me chills. Really hope we get to hear more of that all-out, risk-taking earnestness going forward.
“Making the mother of all covers here, Jack! Can’t fret over every lyric!” Seriously though, this is the most beautiful variation of “It Has to be This Way” I’ve ever heard. All who worked on this did a phenomenal job!
Definitely one of my favorite covers of the song now, vocals were amazing and the guitar was killer. So happy to see MGR having such a strong resurgence.
I'm just gonna say......WOW, im literally out of words right now, its amazing how the lyrics got so deep because of the meaning of the battle against the senator is practically that "when you don't have a choice, violence is the only solution".
"You've guaranteed the epic covers of Metal Gear songs will continue... doin covers of songs will continue as an institution..." In all seriousness I loved this, I can't wait for the next one! What're you guys doing next(I know A Stranger I Remain is out)? When does it come out?
This was the song that got me to subscribe after a lot of just viewing of the channel;This one is a step above an already great catalogue! Thank you for all the work in Vocals,instruments,Editing,The new lyrics and anything else that contributed to this greatness!
my mind is blown away from this i missed metal gear rising vengence so much im glad its brought back and this music a beautiful fine remastered no not just remastered a improved upgrade i hope you make more songs from MGR Vengence im in tears of joy such outstanding memories from it
I wasn't expecting that second half being more unique, pretty neat. Being in a different scale kinda makes it a bit more special in that cover, I enjoyed a lot, 9,5/10.
The second verse had me FLOORED. Lyrics were perfect add-ons to the original, the voice is immaculate, the guitarist is top fucking notch, the drums are peak performance, and the video was masterfully edited. 11/10!! SPECTACULAR!!
Надеюсь вы читаете комменты, продолжайте в том же духе, очень скоро ваш канал выстрелит в рекомендации ютуба (у меня уже). Спасибо что поражаете ютуб своими шикарными каверами.
I heard this randomly on Spotify I loved it but I was busy at the time and couldn't see who it was from then while I was mopping floors at work I wanted listen to a 'It has to be this way' cover and Low and behold it was the first one that popped up amazing cover keep it up
"I said that my sword was a tool of justice, not used in anger... not used in vengeance... But now I don't know anymore... and besides... This isn't my sword." - Raiden (Metal Gear: Revengence) 2013
Been absolutely dying waiting for a kickass cover of this for years! Bloody awesome! And was that second verse and chorus wrote by you? Because it fit right in. Went above and beyond with this one
@@GOLightUp i feel like the second verse is more so Armstrong's POV as raiden is unsure that him and Armstrong are ideally the same, whereas Armstrong more sure that they have same ideals just different methods.
INSTANT subscription. oh my goodness it is so hard to find covers of this song that aren't just weaker versions of the original. you have the lungs and talent to do it justice and the guitar is SICK! my heart was RACING when you hit the long note and I feel like I could throw a MG Ray!
I love this theme so much and also this cover is just brilliant. I haven't expected it would turn out this awesome but I guess you've proven me wrong. Keep up the awesome work 🔥
Это просто удивительно сколько шедевральных каверов на ютубе собирают незаслуженно мало просмотров. У тебя просто великолепный голос и я очень рад что открыл сегодня для себя твои каверы) очень жду полное собрание боссфайтов из MGR))
Just found your channel with this suddenly appearing, and looking back on MGR due to the scheduled return to meme relevance probably put you in my front page recommends. Either way, your cover is amazing! The added lyrics were also a treat! You've got a new fan in me!😊
O mais legal dessa música em específico é que no jogo ela fala sobre o que o Raiden sente em relação ao Senador Armstrong. Tipo no começo "Standing here i realize you are just like me" (bem aqui eu percebi que você é igual à mim). O que é muito legal, já que eles dois realmente se identificavam e ambos tinham o mesmo objetivo que era acabar com as guerras, a diferença é que eles usavam métodos diferentes para isso, e por isso precisaram se enfrentar.
i must say the lyrics later in the song, near the end, is a nice change, yet still in line with what the song itself was trying to say "you are just like me, trying to make history, but who's to judge, the right from wrong, when our gaurd is down i think we'll both agree that violence breeds violence" the original lyrics are a good view of human nature, who gets to decide who's in the right? maybe no one is; but acts of violence can only lead to more acts of violence "standing here i realize; theres no right - no wrong; everyone sings their song" that is exactly what i meant; perhaps theres no right or wrong, we simply 'sing our song' "- i think we'll both agree: that hatred breeds hatred" indeed, violence and hatred tend to go hand in hand and can both be self perpetuating
It's effectively a conversation between the protagonist and the final boss of metal gear rising. How both characters are doing what they do to change the world for the better and shouldn't be fighting eachother.
And how both understand EXACTLY why they fight. But the world one wants is fundamentally antithetical to the other. And they both willing, maybe even eager, to die for their ideology. Hence: "Standing here, I realize You are just like me, trying to make history [...]"
You've won my subscription, something only one other musician on youtube has done. I look forward to what you cover in the future as well as songs you make. ^^

It's crazy because at some points in the song it seemed like they weren't doing anything crazy with the vocals to stay on the "safe" side-- but then she hit "BENEATH THE BLOOD STAINED SAND" with SUCH intensity, and it was FANTASTIC. Seriously gave me chills. Really hope we get to hear more of that all-out, risk-taking earnestness going forward.
“Making the mother of all covers here, Jack! Can’t fret over every lyric!”
Seriously though, this is the most beautiful variation of “It Has to be This Way” I’ve ever heard. All who worked on this did a phenomenal job!
At first, I was like, ehhhhh. Not bad.
But as soon as the singer bellowed:
"Blood-stained SAAAAAND,"
I was sold.
Definitely one of my favorite covers of the song now, vocals were amazing and the guitar was killer. So happy to see MGR having such a strong resurgence.
I'm just gonna say......WOW, im literally out of words right now, its amazing how the lyrics got so deep because of the meaning of the battle against the senator is practically that "when you don't have a choice, violence is the only solution".
Mandando um oi do Brasil, seu canal é incrível continue assim!
Metal gear rising foi um dos jogos mais marcantes da minha vida toda :)
É um dos melhores Hack'n slash!
Brasileiros podem saltar doble ;)
BRASIL SIL SIL SIL
MEMORIES BROKEN
"You've guaranteed the epic covers of Metal Gear songs will continue... doin covers of songs will continue as an institution..."
In all seriousness I loved this, I can't wait for the next one! What're you guys doing next(I know A Stranger I Remain is out)? When does it come out?
We usually release the songs closer to the end of the month!
This was the song that got me to subscribe after a lot of just viewing of the channel;This one is a step above an already great catalogue! Thank you for all the work in Vocals,instruments,Editing,The new lyrics and anything else that contributed to this greatness!
This is everything I wanted from a cover of this song! And the added lyrics are so awesome!
my mind is blown away from this i missed metal gear rising vengence so much im glad its brought back and this music a beautiful fine remastered no not just remastered a improved upgrade i hope you make more songs from MGR Vengence im in tears of joy such outstanding memories from it
Very good! It's such a shame this song has almost no covers in RUclips, I hope you guys cover the rest of the soundtrack, great job!
Next cover: STRANGER I REMAIN.
spoilers
@@GOLightUp sorry
@@GOLightUp YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
_LETS GO!_
The first full cover of Mistrals theme baby!
I wasn't expecting that second half being more unique, pretty neat.
Being in a different scale kinda makes it a bit more special in that cover, I enjoyed a lot, 9,5/10.
The second verse had me FLOORED. Lyrics were perfect add-ons to the original, the voice is immaculate, the guitarist is top fucking notch, the drums are peak performance, and the video was masterfully edited. 11/10!! SPECTACULAR!!
*"Making the mother of all covers here, Jack- can't fret over every songs!"*
Amazing cover, Raiden and Armstrong must be proud
i LOVE how these MGR songs are FULL LENGTH!!! Deeper Lyrics, solos and riff fills. amazing!
Making the mother of all remixes here, Jack! Can’t fret over every note!
Here after discovering the Only thing I Know and have to repeat how well done your covers are.
Congrats.
Надеюсь вы читаете комменты, продолжайте в том же духе, очень скоро ваш канал выстрелит в рекомендации ютуба (у меня уже). Спасибо что поражаете ютуб своими шикарными каверами.
большое спасибо!
The guitar rips are amazingly sick. The voice as always is perfect. Love yalls work.
Beautiful cover. Gave me chills
oh my god you added extra lyrics! this was really really good! big ups!
So many years and this song is still so epic.
I heard this randomly on Spotify I loved it but I was busy at the time and couldn't see who it was from then while I was mopping floors at work I wanted listen to a 'It has to be this way' cover and Low and behold it was the first one that popped up amazing cover keep it up
"I said that my sword was a tool of justice, not used in anger... not used in vengeance... But now I don't know anymore... and besides... This isn't my sword." - Raiden (Metal Gear: Revengence) 2013
Beautiful cover! Both of you has a powerful interpretation!
Been absolutely dying waiting for a kickass cover of this for years! Bloody awesome! And was that second verse and chorus wrote by you? Because it fit right in. Went above and beyond with this one
Thank you very much!
Yes, second verse and chorus are written by us!
Utterly fantastic. If my say it's one of the greatest covers of the song.
@@GOLightUp i feel like the second verse is more so Armstrong's POV as raiden is unsure that him and Armstrong are ideally the same, whereas Armstrong more sure that they have same ideals just different methods.
1:42 just blows me away, you absolutely smashed that part and I love it
The additional lyrics might not be canon but what a nice touch, I've gotta say. It simply is a nice touch.
INSTANT subscription. oh my goodness it is so hard to find covers of this song that aren't just weaker versions of the original. you have the lungs and talent to do it justice and the guitar is SICK! my heart was RACING when you hit the long note and I feel like I could throw a MG Ray!
I'm just going to go ahead and say it. This is the best cover you guys have ever done for a video game
I love this theme so much and also this cover is just brilliant. I haven't expected it would turn out this awesome but I guess you've proven me wrong. Keep up the awesome work 🔥
Nanomachines, Son!
Fabulous version as always
the "beneath the blood stained saaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand" part was beutiful
Yessssss! I so wanted this for so long. I'm not even sure if I pleaded them to do this a while back ago.
Это просто удивительно сколько шедевральных каверов на ютубе собирают незаслуженно мало просмотров. У тебя просто великолепный голос и я очень рад что открыл сегодня для себя твои каверы) очень жду полное собрание боссфайтов из MGR))
Waiting for The Only Thing I Know For Real (Jetstream Sam Boss Fight OST) :D
I'm gonna play this cover everytime I fight Armstrong. Hope to see another MGR cover like I'm my own master now.
You will see
Same on both levels. I managed to do a female cover of Master Now and I think I might be the first but I would die to see her do it.
Perfection..... The Extra Lyrics actually made the song even Better :D!!!!!
I thought "it has to be this way" couldn't sound better but you proved me wrong.
Just found your channel with this suddenly appearing, and looking back on MGR due to the scheduled return to meme relevance probably put you in my front page recommends.
Either way, your cover is amazing! The added lyrics were also a treat! You've got a new fan in me!😊
Saudades desse jogão top .
E vcs tocam e cantam muito .
Parabéns .
Com ctz deixaram meu dia mais feliz .
O mais legal dessa música em específico é que no jogo ela fala sobre o que o Raiden sente em relação ao Senador Armstrong.
Tipo no começo "Standing here i realize you are just like me" (bem aqui eu percebi que você é igual à mim).
O que é muito legal, já que eles dois realmente se identificavam e ambos tinham o mesmo objetivo que era acabar com as guerras, a diferença é que eles usavam métodos diferentes para isso, e por isso precisaram se enfrentar.
i must say the lyrics later in the song, near the end, is a nice change, yet still in line with what the song itself was trying to say
"you are just like me, trying to make history, but who's to judge, the right from wrong, when our gaurd is down i think we'll both agree that violence breeds violence"
the original lyrics are a good view of human nature, who gets to decide who's in the right? maybe no one is; but acts of violence can only lead to more acts of violence
"standing here i realize; theres no right - no wrong; everyone sings their song" that is exactly what i meant; perhaps theres no right or wrong, we simply 'sing our song'
"- i think we'll both agree: that hatred breeds hatred" indeed, violence and hatred tend to go hand in hand and can both be self perpetuating
This is amazing. We need more It has to be this Way cover like this!
I'm so hyped up for every single new MGR cover, as well as your job! I can only hope for more of these in the future. Thanks for another great song!
watching from Brazil good music and good game perfect in your voice.
Now there’s a pretty meme. Exquisite! Now it's "Stains of time turn"
Guess you graduated from The University of Texas ...
I am very glad to see what the numbers of Subcribers, likes and views are growing up, you really deserve it.
Nanomachines Son!!!!
Wow dude
This was amazing
Unfamilliar with this one but thoroughly enjoyed my introduction to it. Great Job
It's effectively a conversation between the protagonist and the final boss of metal gear rising. How both characters are doing what they do to change the world for the better and shouldn't be fighting eachother.
And yet they have to tho both wish it wasn't so. There's a reason this song fits so many fights with the same theme.
And how both understand EXACTLY why they fight. But the world one wants is fundamentally antithetical to the other.
And they both willing, maybe even eager, to die for their ideology.
Hence:
"Standing here, I realize
You are just like me, trying to make history [...]"
The way you held those notes is simply stellar! Bravo!
My only want since playing this game is for this song to have another verse. Thank you for doing god's work.
Making the mother of all covers here jack, can't fret over every word!
This hits different now
You've won my subscription, something only one other musician on youtube has done.
I look forward to what you cover in the future as well as songs you make. ^^
I better put to zero the game's music, sound effects and voice and play this music while i play
Cuz this is something else
Meaning awesome
You followed your wrath, I cut my own path. We are not the same.
*Straightens tie aggressively*.
oh my god i never loved a cover so much, and i loved the added part in the lyrics
not sure how this ended up in my recommended but i'm not complaining, this cover slaps real hard and i love it
What about “The Only Thing I Know For Real”, “A Stranger I Remain” and “Stains of Time” with other incredible songs from this game?
Up
They're doing them. :)
@@xkavarsmith9322 yeah, I see. Still waiting “Stains of Time”))
