Vangelis - Rachel's Song (Cover) From Blade Runner Soundtrack 

Thank you very much!

Thanks so much for your wonderful comments, which really help to get these videos before more people. Comments like yours really keep me going when the process gets tedious!

Indeed I am! Thanks for your comments.

Many thanks!

Thanks for your kind comments!

Thank you very much! I do hope you were able to find my other Vangelis covers, including those from Blade Runner. You may also enjoy some of the Making Of videos, especially The Sounds of Blade Runner. I do hope to do more from this amazing soundtrack.

Great channel, congrats ❤

Somos dois!

Thanks for your comments! I've never been to Argentina, but my father-in-law has been going there the last few years to your amazing fishing. It sounds beautiful.

Thank you for your comments! As a keyboardist, you may find my "Making of a Cover" videos interesting. I mostly make them for keyboard players. Synthesizers are such fun. Best Regards.

Thanks so much!

Muchas gracias! I hope to see your beautiful country someday. My brother has visited there, but I have not. His wife is from Brazil, so he goes there too. I think Vangelis tapped into a deeper beauty than what we experience day to day. Those of us who have been blessed to enjoy that beauty are lucky. I hope that others can experience it too. I hope you enjoy my various other Vangelis covers as well.

Thanks for your comments!

Thank you very much for your beautiful and encouraging comments!

Thanks so much!

Thanks for your comments. No; 100 years is not even close.

Thanks so much!

Many thanks!

Many thanks!

Thanks! Obrigado!

Thanks so much! I wish he could have seen some of my covers.

Thanks! Your comments help to encourage RU-vid to promote it!

Thanks so much! I hope you enjoy my others by Vangelis as well.

Many thanks!

It was a great pleasure to work on such a beautiful piece and perhaps equally enjoyable to know that people like you will enjoy it!

Grazie mille per i tuoi commenti!

Thanks so much for your comments! You are an amazing guitarist.

Thanks so much for your kind comments!

Many thanks for your comments!

Thanks so much!

Thanks so much!

Thanks. I hope you found my other Vangelis covers.

@@TaurusTarkus I did , how many years it took you to find the sounds , notes ,,all of it , I wish I could listen to it live

@@robertaguilera4042 I'm really glad to hear that some viewers like you recognize how long the process takes. The Vangelis videos always take so much longer than I think they should! (...especially End Titles and La Petite Fille de la Mer.) It helps that I really enjoy making the sounds; I find that part pretty gratifying when it goes well. Figuring out the notes, and then making notes about those notes, etc... gets pretty tedious and isn't as much fun. Any favorites you'd like me to tackle?

Thank you very much indeed for your very kind comments. This music is worth preserving!

Thanks for your comments! We going to see my daughter today in New York. You have a big advantage in being able to sing; I usually need to involve other people for that.

@@TaurusTarkus I am 62 years old and have no child. You are so blessed to have such a beautiful daughter !!

Yes, I'm very blessed and very lucky. Children are so much work when they are young, but it is wonderful to see them growing up and enjoying life.

Many thanks! Yes; it's a pleasure to work with her, and I hope we can again in the future. I used to back her up more when she was growing up (and wasn't as good); now that she's older, I don't see her as much.

@@TaurusTarkus Maybe you can do a remote collaboration like everyone's doing these days but not as cool as right there in the studio. But, yeah, I can imagine -I don't see our (18 yo) as much and he still lives with us! lol.

Thanks for your comments. The amount of time that we get with our kids after the age of 18 is pretty depressing. Some estimates are that the total amount of in-person time after 18 is only 4-10% of all the time we will ever spend with them. I think it is even worse with sons, at least it is for me.

@@TaurusTarkus Yeah, that's a interesting figure/%. I figured that's the way it would go so I tried to volunteer for just about everything our kid was doing. It's great that you have music in common with your daughter as you'll both be able to always share that.

Many parents who can't or won't make the time end up spoiling their kids with money. It's exhausting to be a parent, but you will be glad that you spent all that time and energy.

Thanks!

Thank you so much!

Many Thanks.

Many thanks!

Many thanks!

Many thanks!

Many thanks for your comments!

Merci pour vos commentaires.

Thanks so much for your comments! Please check out my Vangelis Playlist for more from Blade Runner. www.youtube.com/@TaurusTarkus/playlists

Many thanks! She is having a wonderful time.

I see you are very knowledgeable about cameras. I struggle with the best settings for shooting videos like this. What F stop would you use? I used to use auto focus but now try to lock focus with manual to avoid the constant attempts of the camera to refocus. Thanks!

Thanks!

Many thanks!

Many thanks!

Thanks for your comments! I had never heard that before today. Interesting stuff. Thanks!

Thanks for your kind comments!

Many thanks!

Obrigado!

Thank you very much!

Many thanks!

Many thanks!

Many thanks!

Thanks for such a beautiful comment! I hope you enjoy my other Blade Runner covers as well.

Gracias!

Thanks for your comments! I love hearing her sing and hope to do more together in the future.

Thanks so much!

Such wonderful comments! It is a great pleasure to record with Megan again. We were together today visiting family (she was saying goodbye), and I showed her your wonderful comments.

Thanks! There also a Rev2 module hiding up there on the mixer.

Muchas Gracias!

Many thanks!

Thanks so much! Please check out my other Vangelis covers. More to come.

Many thanks! Hiciste un gran trabajo al capturar la sensación de "Missing". Es algo que he pensado en hacer en algún momento. Gracias de nuevo y por favor mis otras portadas.

@@TaurusTarkus Descubrí tu trabajo. Lo analicé, y es hermoso. Eres un profesional. Por favor, sigue haciendo mas música. Saludos desde Santiago-Chile

@@patriciozamorano7034 ¡Muchas gracias por tus alentadores comentarios! No me gano la vida con la música y, como es un hobby, puedo dedicar más tiempo a trabajar en las piezas que amo.

Many thanks!

Thank you so very much! It takes me away too.

Thanks!

Kalí méra! We just returned from dinner with friends where we were talking about how much we love Greece! We will return. Here's a video of our magical trip: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-IJ9VZQuvhxY.html

She's back in New York, which loves, but probably not as much as living in Korea.

Thanks! I've enjoyed watching this one a lot myself.

@@TaurusTarkus I would imagine it's actually very hard singing into those big verbs, like timing and feedback wise, or do you do the verbs in post, stunningly beautiful either way 🙏

Sorry for the delay in answering; I’m traveling with Megan and family in Asia. I did reverb post, so Megan didn’t have to deal with that. I also played pretty quietly so that the keyboards didn’t bleed too much into her vocals. It’s better to use headphones for recording, but I like the natural look. Regards.

Thanks! Megan's singing has frequently moved me to tears, especially live.

Many thanks!

Thanks! She's been loving it there. In fact, she said that she would love to live there permanently if she didn't have family back in the States.

Merci beaucoup!

It's a pleasure to hear her live.

Many thanks!

Estoy de acuerdo. Creo que la mayor parte del poder de la película proviene de la música.

Many thanks Jon!

Thank you very much! Yes; I've always found her voice especially moving.

That means so much... especially coming from you! While working on the lead patch for my recent cover of Blade Runner Blues, I carefully watched your "Vangelis for Omnisphere" video/stream. As I talk about in my most recent cover (about programming the sounds), I was struggling to get that lead patch. After watching your video, I bought the Vangelis sounds, even though I don't own the Omnisphere! I eventually got the sound with my Prophet Rev2. I keep meaning to watch your video on the CS70M/CS-80. Best regards and congratulations on your excellent channel.

Thanks so much!

Music can take away stress- at least for a little while. Thanks so much!

Grazie!

Danke schön. Ich habe vor, diesen Sommer zum ersten Mal Deutschland zu besuchen.

Спасибо.

Thanks! It was a lot of fun, and I love the music.

That's very kind! Thanks so much!

Merci! I hope to do a great deal more traveling in your beautiful country some day.

@@TaurusTarkus I hope so !

Obrigado!

Thanks! I enjoyed your Vangelis in the Sky video and especially the beautiful videos from Hydra: where did they come from? There are pictures from there in my Greece video.

@@TaurusTarkus Thank you very much ! I live in Germany 🌎

A hour ago, I was booking a flight to Frankfurt! We are excited to be traveling to Germany for the first time in June.

@@TaurusTarkus I wish you a pleasant stay in Germany, we live near Stuttgart.

It's a wonderful country, and you are close to so many amazing cities. You are kind of central to our trip, which goes from Cologne to Baden-Baden, down into Switzerland, back up to Munich, and then on to Austria. We will have to return someday for Berlin, Hamburg, etc. Many of my ancestors were originally from Germany, but that goes way, way back.

Thanks!

Many thanks! I'll tell her.

Grazie Molto !

Thanks for the suggestion; I know that if you are asking, others would like to hear it too. I hadn't been thinking about that one. My struggle is the same as with Love Theme: the saxophone. I have a friend who is a very good sax player, but he's very busy. I have considered using an electric guitar for the lead in Love Theme, and perhaps that would work here as well? But I'd probably get some hate from some viewers for changing it!

Many thanks!

Many thanks!
