Freedom denied Our people lost their pride Cast aside Existence vilified Bound and tied We lost our will to fight Forgotten in time Our birthright is denied Burning inside We would not abide We shall rise Our fist against the skies Strength combined Our rule won't be denied Let fates collide And freedom realized! Look on The shackled and oppressed We rise in arms To bring it all to an end One dream We've long forgotten That one day all Shall look and see us ascend COME ANY HURDLE OR ANY STRIFE BLOOD, SWEAT AND TEARS I'LL MAKE US RISE HIGHER THAN THE CLOUDS FURTHER THAN THE SKIES THEY'LL LOOK ON US WITH FIRE IN OUR EYES! NO LONGER CAN THEY MAKE US CRY ONE LAST DEFIANCE WE'LL NEVER HIDE THOUGH SMALL WE ARE OUR SPIRITS ARE ON HIGH STAND TALL, MY KIN AND REACH NEW HEIGHTS Despite the tears Flowing down my eyes My heart yearns To end this final fight My hand shakes With a numbing fright BUT I'LL BE BRAVE WITH ALL MY MIGHT! THIS IS WHERE I MAKE THINGS RIGHT ALL IS DECIDED THIS FATEFUL NIGHT HAMMER ON MY LEFT NEEDLE ON MY RIGHT I SHALL END THE STRUGGLE OF MY KIND! Look on The shackled and oppressed We rise in arms To bring it all to an end One dream We've long forgotten That one day all Shall look and see us ascend None shall Keep us from our fate Freedom is worth The sacrifice we will make Our goal Is ours to dictate NOW TREMBLE BEFORE THE GREAT INCHLING'S WAKE! COME ANY HURDLE OR ANY STRIFE BLOOD, SWEAT AND TEARS I'LL MAKE US RISE HIGHER THAN THE CLOUDS FURTHER THAN THE SKIES THEY'LL LOOK ON US WITH FIRE IN OUR EYES! NO LONGER CAN THEY MAKE US CRY ONE LAST DEFIANCE WE WILL NEVER HIDE THOUGH SMALL WE ARE OUR SPIRITS ARE ON HIGH STAND TALL, MY KIN AND REACH NEW HEIGHTS!
This is really good. I remember telling you a while back that you had made noticeable progress in a fairly short time, and I feel like that has only accelerated since. Would definitely like to see more paper Mario music as well, they’re some of my favorite games of all time
thousand year door was several months of my childhood eternally etched into my brain. Been trying to find more pure transcriptions of some of the music.
I've been trying to collect transcriptions for other pokemon music to do at some point. Still working through a lot of backlog of other songs, though lol
I ended up deciding to combine a bunch of various different versions partially due to the fact that "What Bloody Tears version is the real one" kinda is all of them. Especially when I was sitting around looking at pure transcript music sheets of officially produced versions.
HELLFIRE NIPPING AT ACHILLES’ HEELS! I KILL SO YOU KNOW EXACTLY HOW IT FEELS! NOTHING GONNA STOP ME TILL I TAKE YOU DOWN YOU SEE YOU’LL SEE ME BUT YOU’LL NEVER HEAR A SOUND!
Cool stuff! After reading the description I feel like you still could've added some crazy taiko drums or something as percussion if you wanted to. Merry Christmas!
Never heard of it so I went and searched it. I can hear it, yeah. It's probably the fact that both that game's compositions and this use midi VSTi and have a small instrument line up.
Yeah, I really love this song because of the uniqueness, yet that is also the problem when finding direct translations/covers. They are always... somehow off a bit. Even in vocals, the first melody is usually absent, which is just a shame as the song would be very much impacted. I'm glad this was softer on the orchestral side lol. 1:59 remains as haunting as the original, and I do like that a lot!
Thanks. I'm happy that it seems to be received well and my worries were more just me getting in my own head. It really is a case that I just have to learn to accept that sometimes I won't be able to fully translate a song. Perhaps this will grow on me once enough time passes. lol
So, you have now shown your face At last, we begin our chase Run, yes, run, do try to hide Know this wrath's now justified! Now I'm falling deeply Was this my fault or was it only fate? I can't say why, but What was once fear has turned into hate I can tell that My desire for bloodshed now has grown Yet, I will make sure That the names of the lost don't go unknown! Say, what did you expect? I could have run, except I refuse to hide now after everything you've done to me Families you've broken Lies gone unspoken From blood and tears I made this spear as sharp as I can be All of those before Fallen since days of yore I'll make sure there's no one who will have to suffer this again No longer for myself No longer for my friends With all my might, I'll end this lunatic reign! Once I would have thought it sad To have felt the pain I had Once, I searched within my heart In this world, I know my part! Now I'm standing proudly With no room in my heart for further tears I'm fighting strongly Face-to-face with my greatest of fears! Memories crackling Stained with blood are the one thing I can see Now, no more pain No more tears Let me show you how scary I can be! For all of us, you'll know our pain! Once, I felt very afraid Seeing the blood on your blade Now, in a new way I thrive Now, truly, I am alive! Now I'm flying wondrously You might think this is pure insanity But standing here now You'll know everything you've done to me! Walking in this place Have your walls been so easy to break through? Now I hope you're watching See PURE FURIES on its way for you!
We've all been born to play our part When even love and hate are blind The truth is etched On every heart And only fate can change your mind Those feeble stars are shifting soon It isn't nearly any fun To know the world Beneath the moon Yet nothing underneath the sun For one like you, who bears the chain Who lives in fear of "Destiny" This changing world Is to remain Enveloped in a mystery And no matter who decides it The string has to be tied It's a perfectly victimless crime And no matter how it plays out You're bound to leave these days out Arrested by those threads of time... From the day that you were born You're beholden to my pull There is never need to mourn The inevitable For the endless scarlet flow Giving life that feeds on death You've put on a splendid show Since your very first breath When a single string is cut Yet another three are tied This is "Fate", no matter what There's no way you can hide In the dark, you clearly see There's no sense in breaking free This is how it's meant to be *For the whole world but me!*
I will be here Through the night Even now that the moon has sunken down to rest To the end I'll wait for you To fulfill my impossible request I will be here Through the night Even now that the moon has sunken down to rest To the end I'll wait for you To fulfill my impossible request And I've been here Through the day Concealed in the bamboo that took a cradle's shape Now it flies Too high to reach And too deep and too heavy to escape... There's no reason not to try Since we both know that I won't die And have you never heard them say The fun is in the journey? Never running out of time There is no judgement for our crime So live life like you want to live Like there is no tomorrow Once your curse, it's now your blessing Don't you waste what you've been given Though you wanted to forget Remember what she told me: "Even what's impossible With time, it will become a certainty" Master, master, this is an emergency One more step, and the world is in our hold Hearts beat faster Slower drains the hourglass Leave this tale to unfold Faster, faster, losing all the urgency Fade away with a long-forgotten crime Gone forever - What's "forever", anyway? Just one moment in time All this time, and still not enough to see Born to reach these corners of eternity Now, join me in a Pure Land of fantasy Slowly breach the borders of insanity So, here and now is all of reality Leave that past, never looking back again Nothing less than "Everything" would do for me I'll wait, calmly till then...
It is a cover of the song. The original being from Touhou 1 Highly Responsive to Prayers. Unless you are asking if this is a redo of an older cover I did? In that case no, this is my first cover of the song.
