@@xxxmmog 'Better' is subjective though. You're entitled to feel that way; after all Omori's duet it's the original piece and actually by definition a duet. But I'd rather see it as 'different.' Both beautiful in different ways
Your cover BLEW my expectations out of the water! This is the first time I was able to comprehend the sheer spectrum of emotions a violin can express. Thanks for the amazing video!
Aww 😭 That was so sweet. This is the best rendition of Final Duet I've come across in my obsession with this game's soundtrack. Thank you for the wonderful music!
Holy crap you not only understood the assignment you went for extra credit. You encapsulated so much in your arrangement that demonstrates a true mastering of the piece. Awesome work.
This was so unbelievably cool. I remember so many feelings of when I heard this gor the first time, transforming even the music of trailers and the title theme. I am so happy that you made it your own, because art means different things to different people. So while expressing the strings of your cover, you also gave me the kind of vibes of a final fantasy waltz! Plus, it was so AWESOME to see behind the curtian of how your cover came to be! I love learning new things and seeing artists at work and this was a double-whammy of both! I really hope you do more of these in the future cuz the entire thing was fantastic! Plus your cover is so good! So beautiful and emotional! Absolutely amazing work, SPG!!
YES! This video is exactly what I was hoping your music analyses would build into. This kind of dive into music theory breakdown is what I love from artists. We hear your music, we know your talent and ability to take what you've heard and provide a unique and powerful spin on it. These videos give us a dive into the art, and the artist behind those alterations. The technical explanation behind a piece gives so much insight to both the talent to create it, and the talent to modify it in a meaningful way. Thank you, and I look greatly forward to your future works.
final duet already makes me cry, this fr has me sobbing uncontrollably on the floor... you're so talented! incredible job, this cober really pulled on my heartstrings 🥺
This song also shares some symbolism here. The added instruments symbolically being Sunny and his friends finishing Mari’s song, Trying to keep her legacy alive. That is the true reason why this is sad
Exactly what i think. It’s not really instruments that make it melancholic or simply sad - but the story behind it. I’m sure that song represents their lifes, or at least what i think it is. But i like author’s vision tho
I cried, omori is just so dark and that’s what I love about it and you taking that darkness and making it even more sadder with my fav song was just 😢😢😢 absolutely beautifully played keep up the amazing work
I love this video. Reminds me a lot of the music analysis the RUclips channel 8-bit Music Theory makes. I would like SO MUCH if you went into details with your music like that again, in the future. Thank you so much for your continuous coverage of Omori, I made no mystery of how much it means to me. After listening to your cover, I'll be honest, I didn't find it very sad at all. If anything, the emotion it conveyed to me made it sound... hopeful. The acoustic guitar replacing the piano created a sense of calmness, without the lack of resolution. Spoilers follow, for the love of God do not read this if you haven't completed the game: . . . . . . . . . . . . I feel this is something Sunny would do as an adult. Recording the individual instruments and composing the melody he would have loved to play with Mari all those years ago, giving himself closure, for good, and forgiving himself, while also making sure this music gets spread far and wide to commemorate the love he had for his sister. Replacing the piano with a guitar while also maintaining the same melody would be akin to letting the past go, and increasing the violins played in the song would make its presence more assertive, unlike what we hear in game, where the violin is shaky and uncontrolled in the final melody and outright absent in the title screen theme, symbolizing a finally found stability.
Maybe not hopeful exactly, but wistful, or nostalgic. Looking back at those memories fondly, now that they're finally in the past. The classical piano to me is a very timeless, almost immortal instrument; there's sort of an implicit layer of formality that comes with operating such a revered machine. The guitar meanwhile feels much more personal and contemporary; with direct contact between you and the entire instrument, your hands will really tell the guitar what you're feeling in the moment. The guitar's strings are your strings.
@@MetalMockingjay that also works. Regardless, you understood what I meant: it conveys a positive feeling, not sadness, at least for me, hence my interpretation.
Great cover! I'd love to see more of this style of video with analysis and arrangement. Not sure if I'd say it's sadder than the original, but as a pianist myself, I might be a little bit biased :P I do really like what you did with the guitar, though.
I started watching this omori sceries when I accidentally click one of those episode while I'm waiting at my shuttle service, and you promise that you will cover songs from it. And yes finally!!! The wait is over.
I absolutely love the breakdown and analysis, I really enjoy hearing about your thought process throughout the arrangement! Moreover, I think it's great that the core of the song was kept (piano chords + arpeggios -> guitar, piano + violin melody), and the things you added were really meant to lift that core up. Great arrangement, for sure!
I am very late but a-yes, this kind of analysis and breakdown of things is very nice. I never noticed how much the constantly unresolved chords contributed to the feeling of the piece 'til you pointed it out
This is amazing, you definitely should do more stuff like this... Honestly for me I think the context and the fact that you have to play and get to know the game for hours before you hear the song in the game makes even more emotional for omori fans, makes it so much more meaningful and allows it to hit like a truck.
I always thought that the violín in many songs sounds like if its crying, is a irrational and very sentimental thought, and i tink that its what i like about music, things don't need to made sense at all.
I really enjoyed the breakdown of the song. It was so interesting as someone who’s learning about music. While I think this arrangement of the song is a sadder standalone piece, having such a deep connection to the game that words cannot exactly state makes the original version still more emotional for me. There’s still so much skill and effort put into this piece, however, that I just have to commend you for it. Wonderful job. ❤
I liked the cover but it kinda took away the emotions for me I think its just my musical taste but I feel like leaving a piece that is simple and easy to understand is what I feel is the most impactful. But the in depth feeling of musical emotion was great in your piece and I love it When I think about music I just think about what their trying to convey, create an image in my mind. I just feel with the more instruments you put in a piece the more impactful things are and the less instruments in a piece like a simple violin and piano the more emotional things are because of how simple yet beautiful it is. Anyways thats my rant
Great arrangement. I'd like to ask you if you could do it for the them "You're not alone" from Final Fantasy IX. It express perfectly the crisis our main protagonist, Zidane, is going through and that he doesn't want to bother his friends and wants to solve all his problems alone. And, thanks to Garnet, he learns that his friends are more than willing to help him, just like he did to them.
I must admit, I quite like it! I remember asking you to do a cover of it, and you certainly did not disappoint. well done. Though I did wonder if you were going to have a piano in this cover.
In my opinion the saddest part of Final Duet is connected with Omori's story *Spoiler Warning* Final Duet starts with a Piano (Mari). Some time after that a Violin joins the Piano (Sunny's birth). But near the end the Piano fades away (Mari's death).
Beautiful cover from and amazing game. Please release the chord sheets for the guitar somewhere, whether online or on patreon. I’d love to learn this masterpiece one day ☹️
Surely it sounds amazing and you totally did a great job, but in my Opinion it sounds less sad then the original one. But let me explain why. :D The Pinao is gone, which should be Mary. It think the original piece started with the piano, cuz Mary was born first and thats the reason why the violin starts a way later, because Sunny is the little Brother (so he just appearded later in her life). Then they continue together in perfect harmony till the piano stops (Mary dies) and the violin (Sunny) can´t continue without her and what happend. Sooo thinking the piano and violin should be them, let the other extra instruments sounds like other people would be there too. x: Maybe I just think like this, because I know the story of the game? If I wouldn´t know her and why the song is played there in certain parts, maybe I would prefer your creation as sadder. owö Sometimes songs sounds like the Instruments are given to persons/livings. Where you absolute can hear it is in the theme of Kindred from League of Legends. You totally know that the piano sounds like the lamb jumping and running around, while the cello (the wolf) accompany and sneaks around the piano. So you can clearly hear them wandering and hunting together. o: Thats why the "final duet" just with those 2 Instruments sounds a way sadder to me. x3 Maybe some will understand. :D I still think you did a really great job and I´d like to hear more, so I will leave a follow here. ♥
The cover by itself is probably sadder than the original, but it dosen't hold nearly the same emotional weight. For example getting rid of the piano, which is inportant in omori kinda downgrades the song by itself, or another example would be the ending which contained a very loud version of the main leitmotif got changed completely into something different. So whilst I think this cover is good, if you are a big omori fan than it probably won't be as good.
@String Player Gamer the reason why it made Omori players sad in the first place was the meaning behind the piano and violin. With Sunny (main character) playing the violin and Mari (mc's sister) playing the piano. Just a reason why a lot of people are asking about the piano in the comments, since the meaning of it in the game (which I will not spoil for obvious meaning) is mostly why people feel sad when they listen to it. Otherwise, the peice is not all too sad to listeners that don't know about omori. Sure you have all that musical science in the video, but that's not really the reason why the song is SAD.
The added instruments feel like Sunny's friends met after the events and made this piece with Sunny to remember Mari.
Yes
That makes the absence of the piano even sadder
5:44 the part you're looking for
Absolute masterpiece.
Thank you so much! Glad you think so.
Indeed.
it's not really a final "duet" anymore, the original one's better.
@@xxxmmog 'Better' is subjective though. You're entitled to feel that way; after all Omori's duet it's the original piece and actually by definition a duet. But I'd rather see it as 'different.' Both beautiful in different ways
Now I just need his cover of omori and I will die happy
There's so much knowledge on display in this video, and it all comes together perfectly. Brillant work
Thank you very much!

unironically one of the best covers I've heard
There’s something to this that feels like a bittersweet release. Like looking through old photos or childhood nostalgia.
Holy crap you not only understood the assignment you went for extra credit. You encapsulated so much in your arrangement that demonstrates a true mastering of the piece. Awesome work.
This was absolutely fascinating, I really enjoyed the analysis! And, of course, your cover was gorgeous too. ❤️
I hope to see more in the future!

Extra sad final duet doesn't exist, it cannot hurt you
Extra sad final duet:
I started watching this omori sceries when I accidentally click one of those episode while I'm waiting at my shuttle service, and you promise that you will cover songs from it. And yes finally!!! The wait is over.
this was the most beautiful piece of art that i have ever heard, thank you for your art.
"Left things hanging" i get it.
OH SHIT I JUST GOT THIS
I almost cried hearing this version of it... :(
Never have i ever cried so hard to a song. This was beautiful
This song always sounded so joyful to me! I never once considered a world where it would be even remotely considered sad.
It was made for a concert where all their friends and maybe Faraway would assist after all
Your genuine love of music and passion that you put in these videos are what I just LOVE :)
Very entertaining and informative!

THIS COVER IS ETHEREAL.
I always thought that the violín in many songs sounds like if its crying, is a irrational and very sentimental thought, and i tink that its what i like about music, things don't need to made sense at all.
Wow, this was breathtaking!! Evoked so many emotions...
Heart wrenchingly beautiful
This making me mega cry instead of regular cry when listening to final duet

Omori Spoilers?
2:31 "...giving it the feeling of things left hanging.."
Well, that's thematically appropriate, then.
Amazing work of art boi!
just amazing
When Sunny gets all alone on stage
Damn this is incredible
Absolute Cinema.
great video!
Thanks!
I must admit, I quite like it! I remember asking you to do a cover of it, and you certainly did not disappoint. well done.
Though I did wonder if you were going to have a piano in this cover.
I could see Basil playing the guitar with Sunny together, as they both accept their grief and move on together.
You can garentee your cover made my playlist.
Really interesting! I like your explanation! Please do more of this videos :)
what a masterpiece
man this was great!
F for the piano

Im tearing up..
Она скорее не грустная, а примирительная
This is wonderful! ^^
2:51 Wow rhyme!
Now I'll go in the corner and be a fruit dog.
Y'know, a melon collie.
this is beautiful! would love to see more :')
great arrangment!
Original one was sad, but this one is depressing 😢❤
So beautiful!😢🥰
*SPOILER ALERT*
2:30 ¨Giving it the feeling of things left hanging¨ BRO THAT'S TOUGH
OMOCAT needs to see this ASAP
crying
Also I love the music breakdown but it would be nice to have the music only in another video or something
damn this really put a lot of emotion into my heart HAHA
2:32 bruh :,(
there is, my deprresion comeback but
its masterpiece now
Finalmente um br que conhece Omori
In my opinion the saddest part of Final Duet is connected with Omori's story
*Spoiler Warning*
Final Duet starts with a Piano (Mari). Some time after that a Violin joins the Piano (Sunny's birth). But near the end the Piano fades away (Mari's death).
Spoiler
This is like if Mari don't use piano anymore and instead change to violin with Sunny and Hero randomly barge in with his guitar.
Or once mari had died sunny and hero play this, sunny with the violin and hero with guitar
Nobody gonna talk how he’s holding his bow?
tear.
2:32 yeah.. left hanging
Great! Now I need to cry 🙂
THINGS LEFT HANGING, YOU SAY?
Oh no- MARI-!
Even though I never got the chance to play the game, the song is still very sad and nice.
beautiful ^.^
Beautiful cover from and amazing game. Please release the chord sheets for the guitar somewhere, whether online or on patreon. I’d love to learn this masterpiece one day ☹️
"i feel my organs crying."

New favourite video on RUclips! Thank you so much for making it! Have you gotten round to playing heh game yet yourself SPG?
Someday maybe. It's not really my type of game, but the music though.
It doesnt hit as hard as the orginal for because the orginal had only piano and violin for a purpose
Good!

I refuse to be an exact copy of the original version. You can always just listen to the i original if you want the piano.
