What made Final Fantasy IX a perfect game to me: 1) Best ps1 graphics 2) The story and characters 3) The Music, 4) The pacing and progression 5) Comedic, with a classy touch
ntm the fact that coming off two games with a brooding protagonist, this game was a breath of fresh air with a protagonist that didn't take matters too seriously. No matter how bad things got he would try to brush it off with a certain level of snark. Then there is also the fact of a villain just as good as Kefka that makes Sephiroth look like a little bitch in comparison.
Holy. Shit. This is the most amazing thing i've ever seen in my life. Really dude, i'm crying now. That Battle 1 arrangement. That Passing Sorrow. That Hunter's Chance. That Pandemonium. That everything. Thank you for this masterpiece.
I hope if there is a FF9 remake, Square Enix looks to this medley. It is so well done. I have listened to this so many times, it is unreal. A thousand times - thank you so much for creating this and Part 2.
SarahsKnight0 either this or Burberry Komijima doing FF8 Guitar Medley; or maybe Crystal Tower or perhaps Battle On The Big Bridge. Goddamn all the orchestrated or guitar versions that are done properly are ALL the best videos on RU-vid. Get in :) Kudos all involved. Marc is a genius, BKMJMBOX (Burberry K) is a genius, check out the Black Mages too...
I continued listen to this through years and years. I won't stop. Thanks again for this pearl in the ocean. And for pt 2 and for all the great works you did.
I still come back to this medley. It’s stunning and I can’t believe it’s been 10 years since you released it. I’ve listened to this probably 1000 times by now. It never gets old Bro that drum part in Run! was so sick! From 4:11 on and then the part at 4:15 SLAPS. Your groove is undeniable!
Thanks a lot Justin ! 10 years, wow... can't believe it either ^^ After reading your comment I actually rewatched it (hadn't seen it in ages) I remember picking up the trumpet especially for this medley ! I didn't have any friend who could record it at the time so I thought "well, why not try and do it myself !" So I bought one 😁
@@Marc_Papeghin Yes! I remember you mentioning you picked up a new instrument for this one! I don’t remember where you mentioned it though. An old comment I suppose? Either way you’ve grown so much through all your projects and your “Making of” videos were really cool to see! Highly appreciate you and the content you’ve put out. We’re all blessed to have you representing our interests as a musician. Thank you! ❤️
I dont believe that you didnt play "chocobo" and "you are not alone" But overall this is very epic I am keep smiling watch this vid Feels so warm in heart and so nostalgic Thanks this vid complete my life
I played the Chocobo theme in the FFV Medley ! As for You are not alone, it was on my original tracklist ( as well as many others ) but in the end I just had to make a choice ;)
I've seen this so many times, and I still get blown away every time. Man, this is truly an epic summary of all that is FFIX! Of course, Uematsu is king of composing aweinspiring melodies, but this medley really brings it over the top. Hands down one of the greatest videos on RU-vid.
Still listening in 2020 Thank you again for composing such a wonderful and awesome medley. Filled my heart full of emotions and excitement with nostalgia of one of my favorite FF games. Thank you.
Depuis le temps que j'écoutais la musique en m'interdisant de regarder la vidéo parce que je voulais pas me spoiler, j'ai enfin fini le jeu, je peux découvrir la vidéo, quel bonheur haha
This is a masterpiece, you Marc Papeghin deserves a medal.. no a freaking trophy from Uematsu himself! This is hands down the GREATEST FFIX medley I have heard!!! Words can't describe how talented you are man!!
How the hell do videos of sneezing pandas get millions of views and yet videos of such immensely talented individuals performing such beautiful compositions like this barely have 80k...?
I think you understood this soundtrack even better than Uematsu himself, and that's a lot to say about its magnum opus. Nailed it in the best way possible.
I played ffix in around 2014 or 2015 and I had found your medley around that time as well, even before I finished the game Whilst it's been 8 to 9 years, I still return here every now and then to listen to your great work Thank you for the medley and congrats on it being 10 years old !
Today is 2021 and since 2012 I've been crying and melting my face with this epic masterpiece! I can't, I can't express my burst every time I listen. Thank you so much Marc! Will forever be grateful for your talent and dedication. I sincerely appreciate you man! More birthdays to come!
I know I'm commenting on an incredibly old video, but you're so friggen' talented bro. Thanks for this. Music is quite therapeutic, especially your covers!
Man, that was unbelievably awesome! FFIX is by far my favourite Final Fantasy with the most wonderful music ever written! You did an amazing job with this 18,5 minutes of epicness! Keep up that great work. So glad I found this :)
This is absolutely amazing! I adore everything you've done here. Thanks for making such an epic Final Fantasy IX medley. It makes my heart swell with such joy!
I listen to this compilation almost everyday, the transitions are just so perfectly done as well as the remixes themselves. Frontier village dahli is my most favorite one. :)
the You are not alone-Bran Bal-Terra part is absolutely awesome!! as well as battle themes, the Pandemonium mashup and the way you use Kingdom of Burmecia as a background melody while you play other songs. amazing work!
It's been a long time since i felt goosebumbs like i did during the Castle frozen in time part. I Swear by god, the emperor and the flying Spaghetti-Monster, that was pure genius.
We are - FinFan's, simple mortal and gamers never understand us. We are brothers, and no matter where are you from and who you are. If your heart have a FF spirit - we feel it. Final Fantasy Forever. Dear Marc Papeghin - this was awesome! Fuck! Epic music, good work!
+Karlossy Thanks man ! I'm not that surprised you heard that since DT's my favorite band of all-time and one of my biggest influences :) Plus I'm playing this solo with one of Jordan Rudess' keyboard lead sound ;)
Hats off to you man, you nailed the sound perfectly :D I'm hoping to get into Video Game Music remix/arrangement, I just need the equipment/software :P haha
Thank you for making this. I feel all to often that this game doesn't get enough love and this is like a masterfully crafted love letter to the game and the series as a whole.
When you play trumpet it has a french horn tone. It's interesting how the tone of our main instrument comes through when playing other instruments. You have great arrangements!
As far as I'm concerned you have taken some of the already great music from Final Fantasy IX and turned it into one of the greatest Progressive Rock Epics I have ever heard. I'm not gonna lie, tears came to my eyes a couple of times.
Countless listens later, I still get all misty-eyed at Frontier Village Dali. This is an absolute masterpiece, and I cannot wait for your next medley. :)
