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.
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.
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 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.
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 TH-cam. Get in :) Kudos all involved. Marc is a genius, BKMJMBOX (Burberry K) is a genius, check out the Black Mages too...
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'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 TH-cam.
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.
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 !
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 ;)
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!
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
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...?
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!!
There are no words to describe how well you were able to capture the very soul of that beautiful story. Thank you for the tears that flowed from my eyes. You sir, have earned great respect from lovers of this series. Thank you.
Lots of happiness, light and nostalgia while watching this one. Final Fantasy IX is my first epic game, and I just love its gentle style of videos, art and music - even understanding that it is obviously not the most sophisticated in the series, and one can find many things to criticize in this installment. I think that FF9 was the most amazing work of Uematsu, too. Thank you really much.
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!
FF IX was my first Final Fantasy I played as a kid. Even now the music is something I still remember from it. Beautiful job on this and thank you for the awesome trip down nostalgia lane :)
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.
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. :)
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.
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 :)
As FF9 is my childhood defining game, and was my favorite game of all time (played it when I was 12-14), this video is absolutely amazing. Such awesomeness, I love this man. Nostalgia hit me for 9999!
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!
+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
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.
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.
Quel bonheur auditif et visuel ! Cette vidéo mérite tellement plus de vues, ton talent me laisse sans voix. Bravo à toi pour ta créativité et ta prestation : c'est toujours un réel plaisir de visionner et écouter tes vidéos, mais celle-ci tout particulièrement, je dois l'admettre. Bonne continuation et vivement le Medley de Final Fantasy VIII :)
I listened to this once before I actually played the game (which I finished only a couple of months ago), and thought it was amazing as all hell. Now, listening to it again, I can see the true beauty of this medley. The Terra parts were mind blowingly incredible! As are the drums throughout... Thanks for this perfect piece of nostalgia!
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. :)
I don't understand how this isn'tt he most popular thing on TH-cam yet. That was purely amazing and I adore your song choice, espescially in the "second half" of the video! The Pandemonium theme gave me the chills!
BLAAAHHH I dunno how many times I've commented on these medleys now Mark but they are truly incredible. I listen to them all the time and I love watching the videos rather than playing the MP3 that I've downloaded. You're an amazing musician, please keep doing what you're doing.
I've had this video saved in my "Watch later" playlist for quite some time, saving it for a special occasion. However I fell asleep with one of the videos in said playlist playing, and when I woke up this beautiful piece was 5 minutes in. I went for a drink, and unfamiliar yet recognisable strings of notes reverberated through my ears. I thought in my drunken stupor I was imagining FFIX music...yet different. As the seconds wore on I came to my senses, and realised what I was hearing; This.

I think Celes' being emo was well developed in 6...
Vivi is enough for liking FFIX it brought a new aspect to Black magicians.
instead a pervert
ix is perfect
Of 100 youtubers watching, 100 were impressed.
They demand an encore!
even Queen Brahne was impressed! here's 9001 gil!
Lol that was funny
careful what you wish for: th-cam.com/video/A16kqWPucFE/w-d-xo.html
@@jackmetzel631Lmao!
Lol nice one!
The best FF game hands down
For me, it shares first place with FF8. Both of them are too different to choose a a clear winner.
.. i think i love you
***** mines only over lvl 98
THE BEST FF GAME is 9 any other is trash well maybe except 4,3,2 and 6 but any other is trash.
***** it is the truth. and you know it.
Man the music in this game is just truly emotional. The nostalgia. By far the best story in a final fantasy game.
Still listening to this in 2018~ And forever more~
GLOCO same here ff9 by far my favourite ff game
same here, i even changed my land, still didn't change this midley!
may kopya kaba ng game na to?
2k20
2021 I am lucky to find this amazing piece. now and forever
Uematsu would be proud :)
dragon_blade Thanks god you pronounce his name right. Yes, he would cry if he see this
@@UNOriginalDraw he dead?
You sir, made my day again.
Only 1:21 minutes into this and I already got chills.
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.
It's so good I cried
Still crying in 2021 here
September2021# real tears
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 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 honestly don't know how I made it until now without coming across this. FFIX is my favourite of the series. This is beautifully done!
The only bad thing about this, is that each part is so good that i wish they were longer.
Final Fantasy 9 is one of my favourite games of all time. I'll never forget the good ol' days of playing it back at home when I lived with my family.
I feel the same. Final Fantasy is undoubtedly related to my childhood memories.
Frederica Bernkastel Indeed.
Julie Anne It is. It has such a nice charm to it too.
THAT.....WAS......FUCKING....AMAZING!!!!!!!
And this game is *finally* coming to Steam!
And that is why this is the single greatest video featuring Final Fantasy music on all of TH-cam.
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 TH-cam. Get in :) Kudos all involved. Marc is a genius, BKMJMBOX (Burberry K) is a genius, check out the Black Mages too...
This needs more views, this is my jam!
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

Goosebumps when it got to the trasition from melodies of life to world map!!
If there EVER will be a Remake, they should definetly hire you, to help rearrange the Soundtrack. I love your Work! You are truely Awesome!
Now this what i call one person orchestra!!
*respect*
I honestly shed a tear watching this. Brought back so many childhood memories. Thank you! :)
+ConorChaos Very glad you enjoyed it ! :)
Just 18m30, FFIX is back, for a while... Remember everything in that story!!
This game and the music makes me feel feelings and it's been too long since I've felt those feelings
Only someone supremely talented in music and obsessed with FF can create something like this. What a work of art. Bravo
The Best FF Musics are all in here, Hands down
That ending cutscene always makes me tear up
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.
This does justice to my favorite Ff.
I hope you would include this amazing medley in your spotify playlist one day.
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 !
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 ;)
Never ever before i heard a musician make FF 9 so beautiful!!!! Go on, GO ON!!!
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!

Haha excellent !! Et quel jeu merveilleux 😃
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...?
what made ff9 best game for me :
1- music
2- world
3- characters
4- pacing
5- game play
Фанат с России, пересматривал очень много раз, это просто бомба!!!!!!
Музыка прям том, автор просто молодец!!!!!!
большое спасибо !!
French Horn players can do anything. Bravo, Marc!
its like rick wakeman and gangs play this music... progressive rock fantasy.. so awesome!!
I have been perpetually smiling the entire time I've been listening to this!
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!!
There are no words to describe how well you were able to capture the very soul of that beautiful story. Thank you for the tears that flowed from my eyes. You sir, have earned great respect from lovers of this series. Thank you.
9 años ya de este mix y no puedo parar de escucharlo!!!!!!!
Genial !!
Has visto la parte 2? 😃
Lots of happiness, light and nostalgia while watching this one.
Final Fantasy IX is my first epic game, and I just love its gentle style of videos, art and music - even understanding that it is obviously not the most sophisticated in the series, and one can find many things to criticize in this installment. I think that FF9 was the most amazing work of Uematsu, too.
Thank you really much.
During the last 5 minutes or so it always makes me cry from nostalgia lol ... such an awesome medley!
The transition from Kuja's Theme to Burmercian Kingdom...simply amazing.
I still can't wrap my head around how unbelievably EPIC this mix is! Thanks so much for making this for all FF9 fans Marc :D
Richard Isaak Thanks a lot man !
I think my favorite part of this,besides ALL of it, was the transition into "Dali, the Frontier Village." its so beautiful and well played
I CANT believe how good it is thank you so much
If perfection could be heard this would be what it would sound like.
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!
FF IX was my first Final Fantasy I played as a kid. Even now the music is something I still remember from it. Beautiful job on this and thank you for the awesome trip down nostalgia lane :)
Seriously dude, what an wonderful piece of music! Thank you for the hard work in creating something so great!

MoreImbaThanYou Thanks dude !
Thantalus was my favorite part! Love it!
I'm disappointed that this only has 200k views,but at the same time, I'm glad Im one of only of a few people who knows of this gem!
What's also great is that, you actually put in-game scenes in the video prior to the music, I just cried out of pure happiness. Thank you.
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. :)
Thank you very much :)

+Sarah Cuevas (GloriousPancakes) Thank you very much ! Very glad you enjoyed it :)
I don't think I've heard a version of Passing Sorrow that embodies the essence of that track more than the one you have here. So beautiful.
Give that man as many cookies as many instruments he plays. :D
Waouh, pas d'autres mots. Entre ces medleys de FF, et tes reprises de John Williams, tu me vends du rêve.
Merci.
This is simply incredible.
Man.. I don't have words to describe this.. It's just.. WONDERFUL!
I love how Final Fantasy IX had some Prog music in it
+Harrison Crutcher I think every FF OST has a little bit of prog :)
I love what you did with Dali, and then the transition into Passing Sorrow! Brilliant!
Your version of Burmecian Kingdom reminds me a lot of a part of a Dream Theater song, Octavarium, awesome work though :)
+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 ;)

Man this Is far better than my English could ever express!! Splendid!
We need an extended version of the theme for Treno, STAT! Such a beautiful melody played on the trumpet.
It does sound really cool on the trumpet :)
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.
アレンジ素敵すぎ!!映像センスもパーフェクト!娘に見せることが出来て良かったです❤
ありがとございます !!
Best FF IX medley I've heard so far. Love it!
SW Ng Thank you !
Here I am, almost a decade later, and jamming to this.
I loved this game and soundtrack. Amazing job . I'm only halfway through too :)

Wow, you play so many different instruments. That's so cool :) You're like a one man orchestra.
I listened to this once before I actually played the game (which I finished only a couple of months ago), and thought it was amazing as all hell. Now, listening to it again, I can see the true beauty of this medley. The Terra parts were mind blowingly incredible! As are the drums throughout... Thanks for this perfect piece of nostalgia!
Encore et encore j'écoute tes medleys de FF8 et FF9 en boucle ! Celui-là aussi mérite une partie 2 ^^
J'y pense, j'y pense ^^
Outstanding arrangement. And to evoke all those hours of memories in just 18 minutes... Un véritable Dieu de la musique!!
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. :)
I don't understand how this isn'tt he most popular thing on TH-cam yet. That was purely amazing and I adore your song choice, espescially in the "second half" of the video! The Pandemonium theme gave me the chills!
Made me tear up. Awesome man
BLAAAHHH I dunno how many times I've commented on these medleys now Mark but they are truly incredible. I listen to them all the time and I love watching the videos rather than playing the MP3 that I've downloaded. You're an amazing musician, please keep doing what you're doing.
To underrated and his passion is a hidden gem, please share his masterpiece! Very love and enjoy with my heart
let me just wipe off these tears on my eyes. thanks for reminding me this game that defined my childhood.
I'd give a kidney to have talent like that...
Man, when you mixed "Vamo' Alla Flamenco " with "Hunter's Chance" was so amazing! Congratulations, this is a great work!
I like it though I would of liked rose of may in there somewhere but still, great job!
Yeah, and "You're not alone" would have been awesome, as if this video isn't :)
I've had this video saved in my "Watch later" playlist for quite some time, saving it for a special occasion. However I fell asleep with one of the videos in said playlist playing, and when I woke up this beautiful piece was 5 minutes in.
