When I played Majora's mask as a kid, I didn't get much so I was cool with it. When I played it again as an adult it freaked the shit out of me, it's so different and unique.
+Josh JeanJacket Jaeger The new zelda hasn't got any creepy enemies or places. I'm disappointed because of that. It would have worked so well in that game: Redeads, poes human stalfos, places like ikana, kakariko well...
Man Koji Kondo must have put himself in a real dark place to embrace this games feelings of hopelessness and death to compose this beautiful music. This is a fantastic version too!
Its almost insane that the man didn't get insanely depressed from working on it. This is the man that made soundtracks for yoshi games around the same time as this one. Yoshi games.
@@maks_____ -points out that actually all of zelda series has those themes of hopelessness, loss, and anguish if you really pay attention. just Majora's mask is more overt about it.
@@nemooceansoul1137 kinda, though I'd still say that despair and hopelessness are central themes for this game. That's something that definitely can't be said for most of the zelda games.
when i was a kid,once i had a nightmare, behind the skull kid's mask there was this heart shaped face, with the same eyes as the mask, but no skin, it was all muscle, and it had a smile on his face, oh but not a nice smile.. no.. and it started laughing with that horrible laugh of nightmares today im 22 and i still can clearly see that face and that smile as if i just wope up from that nightmare....
I had a multiple reoccurring dreams about the tree inside the moon, the belt of mountains, the field. The little hill. Before I ever reached the moon. The day I reached the moon, my jaw dropped in shock and I left the room. I got big Truman show vibes. It’s was too picture perfect. I know it’s such an archetypal image but that was the greatest shock I ever had. I felt like it was a memory but not mine. It’s a strange feeling.
The original song has always been a personal favorite of mine from MM, and hearing it here...wow. You got the mood just right. The thunderstorm throughout...the slow, methodical pace. With the loud piano about halfway through striking chords. And that ending. I got goosebumps as it started to get more intense. As if to say 'This is the end...a fiery, cataclysmic end that you can't stop.' You slowly await the end of the song as it gets more intense, and then dies out slowly...Bravo on making quite frankly, the best remix of this song I've ever heard.
Imagine a post-apocalyptic setting, you're standing somewhere up high, and you're looking down on the wasteland us humans have created while this plays. I'd feel so much regret and sorrow :(
You feel this is end, you think there is no more time to wast, you know that there is nothing you can do for it, everyone is whatching to the sky buring by a giant wave of fire, you start having despair, no one can handle this, you know death is near you. But at the end, you realised that you had a good life and bad things that made you stronger than before, Accept the reality and don't fear whats is beyond death. Good night everyone
Damn, this music was the only thing I wanted to hear when I finished Majora's Mask ... It have this feelings that the world's end and you can't do nothing ... Itt's sad to see that everybody's about to die in this game ... So depressing #NostalgiaFeels
idk what it is, but whenever i listen to the final hours theme, i have a feeling of..... being hopeless.... knowing that i am going to die, and there's nothing i can do to stop my fate to come....... there's nothing i can do to stop any of it, since im only human.... but then, i realize to accept it. to accept my fate, and scream, "bring it on!", in death's face
My favorite song in MM by far, gives off the gentle sweet melody in the beginning with the hidden meaning of doom and hopelessness for those who haven't ever played the game, but otherwise so suspenseful and worrying as you try to finish up with what little time you have left. My favorite game by far
They bring health to the soul, They wake you from sleep. They sooth a child's anguish, They, a promise keep. They build an army, They unfold your wings. They slow the doom The third day brings. Time ticks by, Fate draws near, O Giants, hear my songs, And save my friends dear. I am not good at poems.
1. Song of Healing. 2. Sonata of Awakening. 3. Goron's Lullaby. 4. Oath to Order/New Wave Bossa Nova(?) 5. Elegy of Emptiness. 6. Song of Soaring. 7. Inverted Song of Time. I'm guessing that's all the songs mentioned in order. Did I get it right?
A true great tragedy is the inability to have a heart that bleeds tears of sorrow for the many when there is no life to connect to that can provide comfort no more. It is then replaced with destruction carnage and despair. Fear will ravage the mind and love shall be distanced from the many. We will be abandoned lost. The third kingdom the kingdom of man will be no more. This will be a day we are no more this is the song of many endings. May we find rest when justice shall avenge the many that have been betrayed by the world of greed hate lust and murder of the sick and twisted. The heart truly yearns greatly through times of peril. It's a sad story really.
The music is great. Well done. However, it's at a bad time because I just got off of work and just walked into the house where my wife is only to tell me that my children's grandmother is dying and that she was in her final hours. Not even 5 minutes later. This music shows up in my recommendations with the title of final hours. I know that our phones listen to us, but in this case it almost feels like a cruel joke. I will not bash the music however because it is indeed. Well done❤😢
You sure did an amazing job making this video scary AF. THAT DAMN MOON, ESPECIALLY THE MASK SCARED THE SHIT OUT OF ME. Ok I'm having nightmares tonight... for some reason this game was just "eh another zelda game" when I was younger but now it freaks the shit out of me because I just realized how dark and damn freaky it is
Do not hasten yourself, for the last sand has fallen. Accept the end with grace, and wait for the last beat. Do not falter, for the end is inevitable. In the end, You've been met with a terrible fate, have you not?
On the third day, the final day, the clock rings true. But the moon comes falling down on top of you. And the Skull Kid sings for the day is done. And the drums beat in time with our hearts For only Death can save us now From the eternal darkness This may be the final hour No new day will ring But together we lived and together we will fall. Goodbye, fair Termina...
You've met a terrible fate You look above you and see the moon staring down at you, ready to end your world At times like these you pray to God that some miracle will save you, but it is far too late You are in the final hours, you cry, panic, run, then you see you are left empty, with no emotions or thoughts, you then see the end is inevitable You go to your loved ones, you hug them, kiss them, you tell the children everything will be alright, when you know it's over So tell me... You've met a terrible fate Haven't you Link?
If it were the end of the world, I...I don't know what I would do. Almost every fiber of my being says "You're going to run, run as far away as you can and as fast as you can!" But then there's this tiny part of me that says "Stay, stay and watch the majesty of the end, then think to yourself, 'Is this really the end? Really and for Truly?' What should I do?"
I just finished going through all of your videos today, and I've got so much I'd like to tell you that I'm going to split this into two comments. I think your work is absolutely fantastic. I listen to a lot of video game remixes (I have one playlist with 1800 of them, and that's only the best ones), and several of your renditions have been the best renditions I've ever heard, even beating out the originals and/or Nintendo orchestra versions. They're not always the catchiest, but....
....but your instrument/production quality, and your arrangements, set the standard that others should strive for. I'd also like to sincerely thank you for including the composer credits in the descriptions, and for allowing us to DL the songs for free. That's the true spirit of the remix community. And if I may ask, it'd be really nice if you mentioned the game that the songs are from too, and included some links to the images that you use in your videos. (if they're fan art, that is.)
3:24 is so beautiful it makes me weep. If they completely remaster Majora's Mask, this part should be in it as the moon is breathing down on the clocktower.
that's true. did you see the comment section of the original music ? because there is even more poets but I noticed this kind of comment only on the final hours' musics
This is the song that shall play when Ragnarok begins, the beginning of the end as Surtr raises his burning sword swearing war against all the gods in Asgard and Midgard. Though he too shall fall, he will strike the world with a final blow, sending it all aflame. This world will burn away, and from its ashes, a new world shall be born and thus the circle begins anew. So it goes.
Your time is almost done But that doesn't meant you haven't won For thou art truly a hero of time And has restored many to their prime Soon twelve will strike And that is you time to fight Fight the demons Slay the evils Call for your friends With their help this land you shall cleanse Through many hardships you still stand Over ice mountains and grass lands Over pirate seas and a ghost town And now you face the moon You will not die Though you've met a terrible fate You will continue to stand on high Because this is you life you can create
Yes, but it can look at my soil all it wants. It will still sprout seeds regardless of whether anybody is watching the soil or not. ;) (But yes, I do know what you meant to say.)
Love your stuff, actually wish your ocarina songs were actually in the games. I couldn't help but notice though that you got every ocarina song from Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask, except for 4 of them. You missed the Song of Soaring, Sonata of Awakening, Goron Lullaby, and New Wave Bossa Nova. Perhaps we'll see these sometime in the future? It's an idea at any rate.
Gahiram's theme from Skyward sword would also be a great one but sadly I don't think hylian Ensemble is coming back, it's been almost a year and a half. A shame, his music pieces are one of the best things I've ever heard.
When I played Majora's mask as a kid, I didn't get much so I was cool with it. When I played it again as an adult it freaked the shit out of me, it's so different and unique.
Damn straight it is!
+Josh JeanJacket Jaeger The new zelda hasn't got any creepy enemies or places. I'm disappointed because of that. It would have worked so well in that game: Redeads, poes human stalfos, places like ikana, kakariko well...
It doesn't!? darn... i was hoping for some scary as heck redheads and ikana type places when i got my hands on the game...
Hunter Fort Scary redheads, eh?
Hunter Fort I think you mean redeads, haha

Just remember that BoTW II is said to just be as dark or darker than Majora's Mask, so be ready.

How exactly? Game isn't even out yet

today im 22 and i still can clearly see that face and that smile as if i just wope up from that nightmare....
Too bad that behind the mask is just a bunch of straw, beady eyes and a tiny beak
I wish I had your nightmares.
Can you draw it? I wanna see it!
I had a multiple reoccurring dreams about the tree inside the moon, the belt of mountains, the field. The little hill. Before I ever reached the moon.

But it refused...
Now this theme truly sounds like Armageddon.
haha...hah....AHAHAHAHAHAHAH
sorry.
Yeah, the soundtrack of WW3, it's coming
You've met with a terrible fate, haven't you, Hylian Ensemble?
Damn, this music was the only thing I wanted to hear when I finished Majora's Mask ...
It have this feelings that the world's end and you can't do nothing ... Itt's sad to see that everybody's about to die in this game ... So depressing #NostalgiaFeels

Beats me.
At least you picked an awesome profile picture before death, so you're covered. :)
XD oh god thats awesome. made my day
You're welcome. :)

Sad, Epic, Powerful, there's everything needed in this track, very nice work
They bring health to the soul,
They wake you from sleep.
They sooth a child's anguish,
They, a promise keep.
They build an army,
They unfold your wings.
They slow the doom
The third day brings.
Time ticks by,
Fate draws near,
O Giants, hear my songs,
And save my friends dear.
I am not good at poems.
Jeffrey Stanley Seemed pretty good to me.
1. Song of Healing. 2. Sonata of Awakening. 3. Goron's Lullaby. 4. Oath to Order/New Wave Bossa Nova(?) 5. Elegy of Emptiness. 6. Song of Soaring. 7. Inverted Song of Time.
I'm guessing that's all the songs mentioned in order. Did I get it right?
Moira Palace
It was New Wave Bossa Nova. The second to last line was meant to be "song" not "songs", as in Oath to Order.
Jeffrey Stanley Ah. My bad. ^^;
Moira Palace
No no, don't worry! You weren't to know. :)
i actually started crying listening to this...dont know why...
Maybe because it is about the end of the world. It doesn't get more tragic than that - and this piece conveys the emotion perfectly
wow, what are you guys 6? just enjoy the music, its beautiful man
Ben Gorter i was just joking man :p
+Ben Gorter that prolly why he cried, beautiful childhood memories
A true great tragedy is the inability to have a heart that bleeds tears of sorrow for the many when there is no life to connect to that can provide comfort no more.

Do not hasten yourself,
for the last sand has fallen.
Accept the end with grace,
and wait for the last beat.
Do not falter,
for the end is inevitable.
In the end,
You've been met with a terrible fate,
have you not?
Relistening to this again, and I have tears welled in my eyes. It's simply perfect by every definition of the word.
Lowkey thinking of drafting a Majora's Mask Live Action film out of my own boredom now..
I'm pretty sure everyone will hear this at the end of the year for 2020
2022, and this is still by far my favorite version of final hours
Does anyone else find this relaxing?
"The game is ogre"
"Your out of time"
"You couldn't save these people"
"Now you'll watch them die"
Might I ask if these lyrics go to anything?
I want this to play at my funeral :)
+Placebo Effekt I totally agree 0.0
+Placebo Effekt Great idea! I like it.
You're already dead. Too late 😶😶😶🌚☄⌛
Are you still alive ?
Chilling this is epic
It's quite the coinkydink that hylian ensemble did Final Hours, and it's quite long, and he hasn't uploaded since
Also that it's been quite long and you haven't aged since, but that's beside the point :p
TheHylianJuggalo
That isn't something to bring up here.
Three months later you reply.
And yes, it is. WHERE IS THE FOUNTAIN!? TELL ME!
TheHylianJuggalo
Nu. Link told me not to tell you where the fountain is in Tangerine County, FloridaFUCK
...Florida.
Nope. Not worth it.
On the third day, the final day, the clock rings true.
But the moon comes falling down on top of you.
And the Skull Kid sings for the day is done.
And the drums beat in time with our hearts
For only Death can save us now
From the eternal darkness
This may be the final hour
No new day will ring
But together we lived and together we will fall.
Goodbye, fair Termina...
Beautiful doesn't cover it. It's powerful, urgent, and sorrowful. It's the perfect apocalyptic song. Goddamn
Great work! Have to say though, would of been better with the bells.
The damned bells.
7 people did not return to the past.
mikepro500 7 people shouldn't have done that!
And in turn 7 people suffered a fiery explosive death!!
+mikepro500 7 people met a terrible fate, didnt they?
A year later it's still just 7 people who haven't returned
with hat attitude I imagine everyone is allergic to you
You've met a terrible fate
You look above you and see the moon staring down at you, ready to end your world
At times like these you pray to God that some miracle will save you, but it is far too late
You are in the final hours, you cry, panic, run, then you see you are left empty, with no emotions or thoughts, you then see the end is inevitable
You go to your loved ones, you hug them, kiss them, you tell the children everything will be alright, when you know it's over
So tell me...
You've met a terrible fate
Haven't you Link?
... Wou! J'en ai presque le cœur serré! Super travail, comme d habitude :)
Tu as oublié ton apostrophe au mot ( d'habitude ) !... je parle d'erreurs de ponctuation même si je suis persuadé que mon syntax n'est pas bonne...
C'est ma syntaxe ;)
Lilou Chan Merci. :)
I loved the music so much, I waited for that game over.
This song.. it's like... you've failed..
But you're a Zelda player, you know that time is on your side..
If it were the end of the world, I...I don't know what I would do. Almost every fiber of my being says "You're going to run, run as far away as you can and as fast as you can!" But then there's this tiny part of me that says "Stay, stay and watch the majesty of the end, then think to yourself, 'Is this really the end? Really and for Truly?' What should I do?"
Watched this in a pitch black room on a true black screen.
Best way to watch hands down.
seriously the best remixer on youtube keep it up... and thank you
I just finished going through all of your videos today, and I've got so much I'd like to tell you that I'm going to split this into two comments.

They're not always the catchiest, but....
These are so amazing! If you plan on doing more, I'd love to hear Midna's Lament or Farewell Hyrule King from Wind Waker
I agree with both.
YES! My favorite youtuber is back in action!
The part were the drums come in is were the true feeling of armeggeddone coming
you know, this is actually HELPING my tense mood! although if it were light out i'd be less tense..
That is by far the most beautiful comment i've ever seen. You sir, are amazing.
0:32
ualglaslghalsuaguahghag *weeps* Don't do that!
Was anyone else hoping to hear the Song of Time at the very end?
Why would anyone want to hear that at the end if they are not expecting it?
Yes, I was.... :(
Me too.
me toooooooooo!
YAY! HYLIANENSEMBLE YOU'RE BACK!
epicness goes on youtube to religiously listen to this and worship its very greatness. in other words, this was amazing to listen to.
....but your instrument/production quality, and your arrangements, set the standard that others should strive for.

Shamefully underrated remix, at least from me; Thank you.
My Reaction : oh this is going to be a pretty rendition- *lighting flashes/ heart stops*
3:24 is so beautiful it makes me weep. If they completely remaster Majora's Mask, this part should be in it as the moon is breathing down on the clocktower.
Awesome! 1:52 sounds like a track from the film The Martian (Making Water). Great work, loving your channel.
I'm surprised that the only one that has less dislikes is this almost every video has more than 100 but this one hasn't great job
Definitely a masterpiece of a remix!
Good lord that thunder sounds so crisp.
So haunting truly captures the feelings of the end of the world amazing
amazing stuff ! thx vortexxy !
This is really great! Keep up the good work!
So beautiful
Great, as always!
that's it. THAT IS IT! i thought the original was scary but this is BEAUTIFUL!
I would like to play a game with Ganondorf using Majora´s Mask.
You wouldn't live 1 minute.
Jeffrey Stanley
Except if you have the triforce And the fierce deity
sonic fighter Yeah no. He'll put up a huge fight.
sonic fighter
Don't worry....we only need a kokiri sword and one deku shield!
Paulo Ricardo
well in that case.... you won't live 1 SECOND
This song really puts me in a goodd mood
So many great poets in the comment section XD
Midori Yakumo tru xD
that's true. did you see the comment section of the original music ? because there is even more poets but I noticed this kind of comment only on the final hours' musics
This song is definitely going on my to watch storms with playlist.
Try it along with rainymood.com ! ;)
rainymood.com/watch?v=859gcJXHtx4
Amazing work, as always! :)
Everytime I'm in the last couple of hours in school I imagine this song playing on the intercom.
Beautiful music. Thanks for posting it ! :)
and an intimidating moon... yeah you could say nothing is expected when there are only 6 hours left.
This is the song that shall play when Ragnarok begins, the beginning of the end as Surtr raises his burning sword swearing war against all the gods in Asgard and Midgard. Though he too shall fall, he will strike the world with a final blow, sending it all aflame. This world will burn away, and from its ashes, a new world shall be born and thus the circle begins anew. So it goes.
Getting serious shadow of the Colossus from this.
I love it
This shall play at the end of the earth, and when a hero comes to save the light, darkness shall be laid to rest.
Tick tock goes the clock up until the final hours
Your time is almost done
But that doesn't meant you haven't won
For thou art truly a hero of time
And has restored many to their prime
Soon twelve will strike
And that is you time to fight
Fight the demons
Slay the evils
Call for your friends
With their help this land you shall cleanse
Through many hardships you still stand
Over ice mountains and grass lands
Over pirate seas and a ghost town
And now you face the moon
You will not die
Though you've met a terrible fate
You will continue to stand on high
Because this is you life you can create
Oh my gosh. This is.. this is _wow.._!
This song went from 0 to 60 real quick.
Can't help but smile in fear and awe, good job HE!!! xD
I frickin Love this remix !!
Gänsehaut, einfach geil ! :D
That thumbnail, i need it as my background!
You guys are awesome! Keep it up!
awesome clip !!
Heck yeah, more music!!!
Feelings
Awesome. Hey, that's the mask drawn for Theophany, right?
Very good, inspired by Theophanys remix?
That's the perfect thing to put in a haunted house... Majoras mask in a strobe light
Is it just me or dose the mask look like it's staring into your soil?
Yes, but it can look at my soil all it wants. It will still sprout seeds regardless of whether anybody is watching the soil or not. ;)
(But yes, I do know what you meant to say.)
LamanKnight hehe.
"staring into your soil"
kek
haha
I don't know about my soil, but it does feel like it's staring into my soul.
i'm probably the only person who would fangirl over the release of a new Zelda game
when she leaves you :'c
Listening to Astral Observatory after this is even better.
THANK YOU :D
Love your stuff, actually wish your ocarina songs were actually in the games. I couldn't help but notice though that you got every ocarina song from Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask, except for 4 of them. You missed the Song of Soaring, Sonata of Awakening, Goron Lullaby, and New Wave Bossa Nova. Perhaps we'll see these sometime in the future? It's an idea at any rate.
The Suns song is also not there.
Gahiram's theme from Skyward sword would also be a great one but sadly I don't think hylian Ensemble is coming back, it's been almost a year and a half. A shame, his music pieces are one of the best things I've ever heard.
awesome
awesome
awesome
wow. that is awesome...
11 people have met with a terrible fate, Haven't they?
time ticks...it dosnt stop...and if thats true...then what will happen when time runs out...
The beginning scared the shit out of me! Damn that mask...
