This one sounds the most accurate to the Metal Gear Solid 2 version of the theme out of any other orchestra recreation: th-cam.com/video/FlYXVND-3gs/w-d-xo.html But this version has an awesome guitar throughout the whole thing: th-cam.com/video/laENCVp_aPQ/w-d-xo.html I still agree with you that this is the best orchestral version of the MGS 2 version of Tappy's theme & The MGS 3 & 4 theme. My only gripe is that the choir makes it a kinda hard to hear the instruments, but that's just a nitpick.
My mom financed and tolerated my obsession with videogames, including this masterpiece. The game and this awesome version of the main title brings back so many pleasant memories. Unfortunately my mom died in 2008.... Thank you for everything! 😭
Too bad... we won't be seeing nor hearing this anymore (unless you have a copy of the OST... which, I have). Goodbye MGS, goodbye Boss... and... #FucKONAMI
Llevo escuchando este tema desde el 2007 cuando no existían los comerciales en TH-cam y soñaba con jugar el MGS4. Hoy 13 años después sigo aquí emocionándome como siempre.
This is probably my favorite performance of this theme. VERY emotional performance and adding the visuals from the game made it that much more heartfelt.
He didn't really make the theme of Metal Gear Solid, it was in the original Metal Gear Solid on the PS1 way before Harry Gregson-Williams was involved with the Metal Gear Solid Series. (1 came out in 1998 and 2 came out in 2001)
benjgoughreturns I know that, but Harry's interpretation of Tappys work is extraordinary. MGS 2 intro theme is, for me personally, one of the greatest intros to any game in history. th-cam.com/video/QvEDSkK3GQU/w-d-xo.html
I'm so jazzed right now; I have one more shot to jump straight to Calculus 1 for my first semester of College. I was only a few points off on my Compass Exam this time, and I have one last test date next week. I'm done with fooling around, this is my final window, to save on college funds. Times like these... call for dynamic action, a reply that must be massive to react to the call to duty. It's time to make these hours *count.* (Opens up tab after tab of college algebra formula sheets and practice tests) (Turns on MGS music) *Let's go to work.*
Semyael No, that footage was taken from a trailer. The Subsistence stuff you're thinking about was shown at E3 2005. There were plenty of MGS4 trailers starting from as early as TGS 2005.
:) Goose bumps and chills since 1998 when I first played MGS. :) This series changed by entire way of experiencing videogames! Played the storyline games through a minimum of 4times/game. Absolutely a great series!
Everybody that took part in there is a Legend. At that time they couldnt imagine how many people would see this even 16 years later they wrote history to be remembered by millions of people sharing the same passion for a videogame series that has taught us a lot of things. We are proud of this accomplishment!
SuperArppis to make a copyright claim someone has to infringe someone else's copyright ownership. Did Metal Gear artists stole some sort of composition from Russians?
Since I found this piece of art years back, I still enjoy it today! Metal Gear Solid will never die. As long as we keep it alive, my brother and sisters in arms.
Never expect that iam gonna hear this song again after my father passed away. Shit its all feel mixed so much for me remembering the days he bought me the PS 2 and a MGS 3 at that time. Shit why you do this to me.
This video has had so many views since I first saw it! Haha how time flies by, by the way there are comics on youtube by a youtuber named hiimdaisy who gave the best parodies of the first three MGS games and you MGS fans really need to watch it. There are only about a hundred thousand views and that leads me to assume that there are some of you guys haven't watched them. Just type in hiimdaisy metal gear and have fun watching! :)
ainsley toledo I know them, and I've seen them. They're hilarious as well, I just prefer the comics (the voices I imagine aren't quite the same I hear in the dubs) ;)
Listening to this theme will always remind me of the last thing my dad ever bought me before he passed away. That game is MGS4!
+Phantom Boss "phantom boss" is the name I put in my Mother Base logo in MGSV.
*Salutes*
This saga is emotional enough the way it is! Good luck man.
I couldn't imagine a better thing to associate with the passing of a loved one. Life long feels. Salute.
Phantom Boss DON'T BREAK ME MAN
To this day, this is still the best interpretation of the Metal Gear Solid soundtrack made by an orchestra available to watch in TH-cam.
This one sounds the most accurate to the Metal Gear Solid 2 version of the theme out of any other orchestra recreation: th-cam.com/video/FlYXVND-3gs/w-d-xo.html

100% agree, this one is extremely close and the feel is spot on
For sure my friend. 3:12 until the end just could change your life❤
End of 2023, your statement is still true.
Yes, the legacy continues. Some will forget, but we will remember!
That drummer was feeling it lol
Yeah, noticed that XD
+Kevin David You know if any one of us watching this video was put in his shoes, we'd be doing the same thing haha.
he is awesome.
He fackin was.
I like the cut of his jib
"snake.....had a hard life....he needs time to rest."
Gwen Hale already!!!!. MGS V is the last project of KOJIMA
Gwen Hale "Don't even get me started about Kojima!"
+Gwen Hale a manly tear was falling in my cheek when otacon said that :'c
+Gwen Hale That line...gets me every damn time without fail :'(
He really need to go dog mushing
Obsessed with this even 8-9 years later

Same

12 years.
Nearly 13 . One of my first liked videos on youtube . Good times...

may your mom RIP, my friend. God bless you and your family ! I salute her !
I give you my condolences. May she rest in peace. I'm glad that this series has a special place in other people's hearts like it does in my own heart.
@@delta1962 thank you, my friend!
@@chocov1233 thank you, mate!👍
I remember when I watched this same video 6 years ago... Still amazing and crazy
+Rivality Flames goosebumps all the way
+Flames - Gears of War ooooh yeah :)
+FoxThree yeah
lol i same i remember how excited thos song got me when mgs4 came out lol i swear tht game had the most hype imo for any mgo
Almost ten years... yet the spirit of Metal Gear lives on
I literally cry everytime I hear this song. This song is chock full of memmories, nostalgia, and emotion.
+niftymoth723 1:13 to 1:30 u can feel the epicness when solid snake show up with the melody :´)
it really is...its what separates art from just a videogame
one of the most epic game series in all history of video games... with the equally epic music.
Too bad... we won't be seeing nor hearing this anymore (unless you have a copy of the OST... which, I have).
Goodbye MGS, goodbye Boss... and... #FucKONAMI
HenSt1985 us fans will keep it alive by passing it down to the next generation
Who else is crying here in 2020 remembering the initial trilogy?
Fuck konami
You feel it too don't you
*salute
@@abhijaik70 Silent Hills... The missions I've lost... they won't stop hurting...
@@Metalora It's like they're still there
87 years later, this particular performance still makes me weep.
I wish that I was as memorable as this theme.
2:14 I love how that one drummer is vibing to the song and gets into it
Please play this at my funeral... And bury me with a olive-green bandana
When it's over, should we have David Hayter stand over your grave in a military uniform, salute, and shed a single tear?
I wanna die just to have such funeral... Bury me with a Foxhound flag over my coffin man
me to man! me to
I won't scatter your sorrow into the heartless sea. I will always be with you.
Robert Kreiling yeah then get kiefer sutherland come steal his uniform
This is still my favorite arrangement out of all the others. The little inner horn part around 1:36 sends chills down my spine.
This is the best video game soundtrack ever produced in my opinion, so many memories flooding back, always gives me butterflies
Almost 10 years later... still enjoying this masterpiece, still in love with these melodies. What an arrangement
This is still the best rendition of this music I have ever found. So goooood!
This is the only orchestra piece that I can relate to.
me 2 kind of! plus: silent hill orchestra and uncharted!
Big Boss? How can you still be alive?
I'm one of his... fans.
bigboss3110 SOLID response Sir .
here here
Even after 9 years I still search TH-cam for this video. As beautiful as ever. By far the best version of an amazing theme!
9 years later and I'm still listening to this in the shower
Roberto Yulee Imw stilllllll in a showerrrr
Roberto Yulee quite intense showers you must have
Kobe Michilot 🤣
Have you escaped the shower yet?
actually...
3:56 is pretty much impossible to improve upon, it's absolutely perfect
Jeez... I remember watching this when I was younger and back in 2007.... 7 years ago, wow... I can't believe so much time has passed.
Hahaha in 2007 the game was already a few years old, too. It came out during my freshmen year of college.
The way the rest of the orchestra joins after that guitar solo, Christ.
Llevo escuchando este tema desde el 2007 cuando no existían los comerciales en TH-cam y soñaba con jugar el MGS4.
Hoy 13 años después sigo aquí emocionándome como siempre.
We are all the guy at 2:16 lol
B1ackout ahahahahaha
LMAO you killed me
This gives me chills every time. Long live Metal Gear.
Love that music !
I watched this video for first time in 2008, and I still see it in 2019 !
Goosebumps = achieved
Goosebumps, every time I relisten it. I wish I had the chance to attend this concert back in '07.
4:12 ffs guy on guitar. You had one job
ICantSplel u sure it wasn't on purpose?
Munzu Don't think so, sounds out of key and he looks down after he does it.
ICantSplel yeah! was a "guitar fails"!
ICantSplel I don't think it's wrong lol
ICantSplel nop...his job was to do the guitar solo, wich he did
That drummer makes this. Fucking sick really into it
This is probably my favorite performance of this theme. VERY emotional performance and adding the visuals from the game made it that much more heartfelt.
Harry Gregson-Williams is a LEGEND.
He didn't really make the theme of Metal Gear Solid, it was in the original Metal Gear Solid on the PS1 way before Harry Gregson-Williams was involved with the Metal Gear Solid Series. (1 came out in 1998 and 2 came out in 2001)

benjgoughreturns

th-cam.com/video/QvEDSkK3GQU/w-d-xo.html
Patrick Fox Agreed
2:14 the guy's face is my face everytime I hear this part :D
he's like "yeah this is metal gear!"
GBlaugrana He`s probably thinking: "All the painful months/years of learning to read music notes just to play this....finally.....fucking worth it!!"
Snake, quit messin' around... Snake? SNAAAAAAAAAKE!!!!
Still gives me chills. Legendary.
This is one of those songs which just provokes so many good memories of childhood gaming, which no games these days can compete with.
damn good job drummer
Makes my heart flutter every single times I hear this masterpiece

Did it work for you mate?
@@baeckergott Nope, they found his dead body in front of his monitor, with this theme playing on repeat.
Still the best version of the theme I've ever heard, these guys killed it.
JODIDAMENTE ÉPICO!!!
Hola
Yo dije que lenguaje es ese jajaja.
Oh god. 2007. There is no mgs4 and HD mgs2-3 :D Pretty good times
If this was uploaded in 2007, why is there MGS4 footage in the video? Is it from E3 maybe?
Toshiro Onchi there is mgs4 trailer on one of mine mgs3 subsistence discs. But, it made on ps2 power.
Toshiro Onchi
There is MGS4 footage because nanomachines, son!
MrBeaux
Dude, there's a simpler explanation.
TIME PARADOX!
Semyael
No, that footage was taken from a trailer. The Subsistence stuff you're thinking about was shown at E3 2005. There were plenty of MGS4 trailers starting from as early as TGS 2005.
after 16 years this epic music is still relevant send chill and the best music ever made. 🎉....it will be always have special place in my heart.
I still have my MGS game's, I didn't want to trade them in, it's just one of those games that keeps you on edge. MGS1 needs to be time capsuled!
This gave me an eargasm
Symphonies are underrated. It's amazing how all of those people work together to make one piece of music.
Man the MGS games were all so expertly crafted and executed. I wish I could go back and play MGS 1 and 2 for the first time again.
I haven't even played MGS and I get goosebumps listening to this.
Kiyo same here
Fix that. Play them.
That moment when Boss dies in the field of flowers!
Spoilers, spoilers everywhere in this video
Instant ejaculation
+Kobe Michilot Um, Whut. o_o
That was the best craziest moment i had
I was like
Whoooaaa 😲
I am from the year 2016. This video will still be the best there is on TH-cam !
still the best MGS3 song ever 16 years later.
2:16 - 2:54 ABSOLUTELY EPIC!
awesome....goosebumps everywere
:)
Goose bumps and chills since 1998 when I first played MGS. :)

3:12 My Favorit
This is good ... Isn´t it
One of the first videos I watched on TH-cam back in the day. Still amazing.
Still the best performance of this by an orchestra on TH-cam
4:10 that last guy on the right seems to love this a lot.
+Jake Also the drummer at 2:15 xD
è tão perfeito que eu nao tenho palavras pra expressar o que eu sinto.
Whenever the guy with the guitar appears I can't hold myself back... Tears just start running.... One of the best themes in History
Every time, every single time I watch this I get goosebumps and tears, so fucking good.
Luv how the scene and music is fused at 1:26 to 1:46
LOL at 2:16 that drummer in the middle is rockin out
Just think not a single person in the orchestra knew how this form of media would forever grant them immortality.
I‘ve watched a few orchestra with this theme, but this is the best version of everything i‘ve heard!
I love metal gear! Its just the The best theme 👌🏽
every mgs fan at 2:16 :D
Needs a HD remake/re-shoot!!
Yeah, I was there tonight. It was amazing. Such a great finish to a great show.
This was a real pleasure to listen to, thank you to all those involved!
It's a huge shame we will NEVER hear this again in Metal Gear games. Thanks russian copyright-claims. :(
sorry can u explain me?
*****
Yeah the guitar version at the VERY end? Sure. But in MGS4 didn't have the song.
errr... Russian copyright claims?
RobiePAX
Yeah, there was a big news story about it many years ago.
SuperArppis to make a copyright claim someone has to infringe someone else's copyright ownership. Did Metal Gear artists stole some sort of composition from Russians?
And imagine that in 1080p.
6 years later your dream became true.
Oh my god, the whole thing was beautiful. And that guitar solo :')
After watching this a few years back, watching it again, it still blows my mind and still giving me the feels.
2:17 that dude knows what's up.
3:13 is the best part for me
I Highly agree, its chilling.
Still listening to it!
Since I found this piece of art years back, I still enjoy it today! Metal Gear Solid will never die. As long as we keep it alive, my brother and sisters in arms.
Funny how this guy also did the soundtrack for Shrek..
Need to buy that guy on the drums at 2:14 a beer or seven
haha Thanks Glen1n :)
Now, Glen1n, you have to pay.
This gives me everytime the feels man
Listened to this about four years ago and loved it, suddenly remembered it and came back, glad to see people are still basking in its utter beauty :D
la mejor banda sonora de la historia junto con el silent hill
This should America's national anthem. Legit
Man, now that I think about it, I grew up playing this series. Good memories indeed
I love these orchestral takes on video game music. Love em
1 week to go guys, and its Mr. Kojimas birthday today.
anyone else watching this in 2019?
Nope
2020.
2030 ... future me
One of, if not the best live video game themes I've ever had the pleasure of listening to. Amazing arrangement and performance. Wow
Never expect that iam gonna hear this song again after my father passed away. Shit its all feel mixed so much for me remembering the days he bought me the PS 2 and a MGS 3 at that time. Shit why you do this to me.
❤️❤️❤️
Happy Veterans Day

Good, but the sound and picture quality could be better.

It gives the chills every time I watch this. Simply the best. R.I.P Konami....
almost brings you to tears it's so epic.
remenber this on 2019??
