Marc! Hope you are well and you've all had a great NY and Christmas What are you doing this year, any new stuff on the horizon? Thanks for all your work so far, I keep coming back to what I imagine is your University stuff... The FF4-9 catalog, it is all 100% pure prime beef :D
@@DailyCorvid Hey there ! Sorry for the late answer, I'm only seeing this comment now 😁 Very glad you've been enjoying my FF medleys ! Ultimately I'd like to make one for every FF (well, at least all the ones that I've played ^^) so who knows, maybe in the future a new one will pop up 😃
Years keep passing by, yet I'm still here listening to this masterpiece.... Thanks man for giving us this piece of art (and of course thanks to everybody who collaborated with you) 😊
AICabal AICabal the settings in this game, all being pre rendered backgrounds, will probably look good forever. This and the older resident evil games share a similar style and they all hold up visually in that respect. It's pretty cool.
8 years later and I still listen to this medley. It is so special to me, FFVIII is one of my favorite FFs and you all did it justice. This medley evokes a great feeling of nostalgia on me, it makes me relive some great moments of my life and can't thank you enough for creating it.
Nobuo Uematsu's music certainly played a huge part in me enjoying this series so much. The fact that he's now done with the series, empties its soul a lot.
I really hope all of you folks watch this and feel really proud of yourselves. This is a really inspiring effort and I hope folks start to pay more attention to your incredible musical and artistic skill!
I just love your Fishermans Horizon cover so much. I can't even tell how much strength this song is giving me whenever I'm feeling helpless and unmotivated!
Thanks a lot, that surely means a lot to me ! And I have good news for you today, just click on the following link :) th-cam.com/video/x6-gosPE_5M/w-d-xo.htmlsi=fC-NveZnkT3pcULl
Bravo à tous les musiciens qui ont participé à ce Medley ! Rahh ce moment de nostalgie ! Tiens j'vais me refaire FFVIII pour la 36ème fois ! Très impatient de découvrir la deuxième partie en tout cas !
Fisherman's Horizon comes in and so do a couple tears. Incredible work as always, Marc, and bravo to everyone who contributed their talent here. This is why I subbed.
Many thanks ! 10 years after we have just released a full 7-min version of our Fisherman song :) th-cam.com/video/x6-gosPE_5M/w-d-xo.htmlsi=HgYsa2l0CYFIL36L
Truly epic. My greatest respect to all the great musicians who contributed to this and incredible work from Marc. The amount of talent and time it requires to arrange, organize and finish this is beyond words.
To Zanarkand was a good song, but the overall soundtrack of FFX wasn't up to par compared to FF6-FF9, and that's probably because it's the first game that Uematsu wasn't the primary composer on. He did a few tracks like the Battle theme, To Zanarkand and some others, but otther than those he shared composing duties with two others. Honestly, in my opinion the soundtracks of FF games haven't been nearly as good since Uematsu left the series, but I have hope for FFXV because it's the KH composer who actually does really great music as well. I will also say that the composer for FFXIV:ARR does a really great job imitating Uematsu's style.
I don't agree. I think FFX's soundtrack is just as good as FFVII - FFIX. Nobue Uematsu does not have to be the sole composer for the soundtrack to be good. Consider that he picked the composers on FFX. Also take a look at Chrono Triggers soundtrack by Yasunori Mitsuda.
FFVIII will always have a special place in my heart as the game that introduced me to the franchise. I've played several since, but in my opinion VIII has some of the best music in the series. Fantastic cover, wonderful job putting this together :) Gave me one heck of a nostalgia trip!
7years later, hope all is well and that you had a great NY :) I always thought that 8 had the best town themes, that was the only area 7 didn't have a blockbuster with too! Unless you count the coastal theme but even that's not really a town theme. The last best one before fishermans horizon was probably Home Sweet Home from 5 all the way back in 1995!
@@DailyCorvid Hello and thank you for the comment! I had forgotten about this video, so thanks also for calling me back to this lovely medley. Hope you also are well even in these crazy times. At least we have fantastic music to comfort us in isolation!
Etant née dans les années 90 (pile cette année là en fait mwaha), je me souviens encore parfaitement de ce jeu car il m'a le plus marqué. J'ai débuté mes premiers jeu et à devenir Fan de la saga FF avec cet opus et par la suivre, continuer à suivre et jouer aux jeux de Square Enix (SquareSoft à l'époque). Merci beaucoup, c'est un très bon medley, bravo ! Ce FF est mon préféré, je continue d'ailleurs à y jouer de temps en temps. J'aimerais tellement une version HD avec les moteurs graphique d'aujourd'hui mais on peut toujours rêver XD
My favourite game of my childhood aswell. If I ever should be rich (like really, really rich) I would propose to Square Enix to make a proper remake and would pay for the development so they don't need to worry about return of investment or some corperate bullshit... but yeah, we can only hope about such a think to happen on it's own. Maybe with some remakes of their best era (FF6-10), maybe they would realize what made those games so good and special and maybe they would make a good game again... but they definetely turned to the worse after they fused with Enix.
You've really outdone yourself this time Marc! I'm so glad to have been a part of this epic collaboration spanning more than a year and so many talented artists! Here's to many more epic collaborations!
could you make that fisherman's horizon an actual song just like that one? i really loved the way you guys arranged it. its very emotional to the point that it makes me cry :'(
I seriously can't get enough of listening to this! So much memories of this game compiled in 20 minutes! So glad to have been a part of this genius work, Marc, and alongside all you other fantastic musicians! Each note was where it was supposed to be!
I've listened to this and other medleys of yours while working, for hours. Years after it came out. This arrangement is so precious to me. You shared your love and passion for the video game, the series, and music, to thousands of people. Some come once and have a great time. Others, like me, don't forget and stick around. I don't know much about who you are. Don't know much about your politics, your beliefs, and maybe I could be disappointed by you like I was by J.K.Rowling for instance. But just for making what you make, you are one of my favorite persons around! Thank you so much!
This is ridiculously amazing... I can't even.. GREAT job on arranging and putting all this together. Wow p.s ladyreemz86 vocals and lyrics are just beautiful~
I watch this video just about every day. I don't know how many of these epic medleys you plan on making, but let's hope that it is one every year for the rest of your life. I honor you all as musicians and appreciate all the time you must have dumped into this video. What are the chances of a Kingdom Hearts medley? I may soil myself if that were to happen. A Legend of Dragoon medley would probably cause me to soil myself as well. I tip my hat to all of you who made this happen. P.S. Marc (or whoever composed this) your transitions are seamless, impressively so.
although FFVI and FFIX have my favorite soundtracks in the series I have to say this is my favorite of your medleys just due to the increased production value and more instruments added with each one you make. Can't wait for Part 2
Final Fantasy VIII is my first and my favorite FF series. It is also my first RPG games that I played. I guess thats whats made it left so much impression to me. As a 13 yo kid when I first played this, I never thought a game could left so many emotion to me when I first played this. Truly a great game. Even though a lot of people don't agree how great FFVIII is, (since its more of a futuristic setting rather than a fantasy like FFIX) it still holds a high place in my heart. And listening to this brings all the nostalgia back. Thank you for this awesome medley...
Magique ! J'ai écouté le medley du IX en boucle pendant un moment, maintenant le VIII vas me hanté pendant un moment ! Liberi Fatali est juste incroyable, et le solo de guitare sur le thème de Linoa m'a donné un sourire idiot, les larmes aux yeux et la chaire de poule à un point ! Merci à tout les artistes de cette vidéo, j'ai ressenti à travers cette vidéo toute les émotions que j'ai pu avoir en jouant à ce jeu dans mon enfance, merci pour ces 19:42 de voyage à travers le temps, et vivement la seconde partie !
Everytime I come back to this Medley I'm just blown away all over again. Also I'm yet again amazed how it doesn't have more views when you see how much work went into this and. how epic it is. Meanwhile you have ridiculously dumb videos made in 5 minutes that have millions of views. Seriously though can we talk about how much of an ABSOLUTE BANGER that cover of Man with the Machine Gun is?! Think I almost snapped my neck from head banging.
THIS SHIT IS EPIIIIIC ! C'est une dingue coïncidence que je finisse mon let's play de FF8 le même jour :') Merci beaucoup de rendre un bel hommage à cette OST de magie ! GJ Sir !
this sure brings back memories, i played this back in 2000 when i was 10, even though i didnt know what i was doing, this is the game that introduced me to final fantasy and RPG`s ,thanks for making this awesome tribute to a very underrated ff game, in my opinion the best :D
Dude! You're seriously talented at arranging these medleys! If I didn't know anything about Final Fantasy, I would actually believe that these were original compositions! I'd honestly place this one (the whole 43 minute version) up there with big epic pieces by Dream Theater and Neal Morse! Keep on making awesome music!
I've been listening to this and Part 2 since they came out... honestly, several times each week since then. This music really helps me focus on my programming and brings back memories growing up even though I was already 18 and on my own when this game was released.
theawesomeness453 I've read mixed reviews on the Steam version so I'm holding out on a proper HD remaster. I know there are mods, but it's not quite there yet.
Absolutely amazing, your FF8 medley is part of my playlist on Google PlayMusic for 2 years now, I go to your youtube page to leave a comment and find out that there is a FF9 and FF 10 medley !! Omg best Christmas present !!
This is amazing. I'm so glad someone reworked all of this great music. You're a talented musician, glad you chose to use your abilities for such a good cause!
This is amazing! Both parts are fantastic. A great tribute to an amazing and underrated soundtrack! Thank you and everyone else for doing such a phenomenal job.
Holy shit... I just found out about this and I gotta say you made me very happy. So much nostalgic feelings hearing these tracks. I could still name some of the tracks I like. I had lots of memories on the PS1 with Final Fantasy VIII! Thankyou!!!
Ah, memories. This game popped my RPG cherry, tho i was raised with mom playing the nes/snes SEEDs growing up. Within a week of discovering this game at 16 I was hellbent on going to Fullsail to become the first American character designer for Squaresoft. 13 years later I work maintenance at a Marriott; poignant nostalgia. :-) Thank you truly, this is a well executed effort my friends. Nobuo Uematsu must be delighted.
Une pièce magnifique! Merci à toi Marc et à tous tes invités pour votre travail! Un sacré voyage grâce à vos interprétations magnifiques. Hâte d'avoir la suite, mais prenez votre temps pour faire encore de plus belles pièces!!
I honestly waited EAGERLY for an entire year for your next medley. I'm a huge fan of Nobuo and a huge fan of you. Once again, you've done an absolutely amazing job. Please keep going man!
I am speechless, Marc! Everytime I watch your new video it turns out to be the greatest game music collab cover EVER! Can't even imagine how much work went into this. When can we expect Part 2?
C'est clairement la plus belle version de Fisherman's Horizon que j'ai jamais entendu de toute ma vie. Même meilleur que la version Orchestral de Distant Worlds. DU bon travail, je suis vraiment fan
Merci beaucoup ! Pour célébrer les 10 ans du Medley, voici la version longue de la chanson :) th-cam.com/video/x6-gosPE_5M/w-d-xo.htmlsi=HgYsa2l0CYFIL36L
Je n'ai pas connu le jeu hélas... Mais heureusement grâce à vous je découvre ces petits chefs d'oeuvre. Magnifiquement executé, tout le monde envoie du lourd, les voix sont sublimes, les sons maitrisés. Le tout est très cohérent et s'enchaine si bien que je devine à peine les transitions. Un vrai régal du début à la fin ! Bravo j'achète !
I'm at a loss for words. I grew up with these soundtracks. I can't even begin to imagine how much time and effort went to this video and I'm only at Part 1. You deserve at least ten-fold the views for this masterpiece. The cutting, the transitions, all those different musicians and instruments, all cut together without any flaws. Simply fantastic.
Marc, I can't even imagine how much work went into making this video. (and it's only part 1!) Fantastic, just fantastic. It was good seeing Songe here, too!
So, I came back here again to listen to the whole thing and re watch all the beautiful FF8 scenes, reliving the times and hours I worked on this with you, and I couldnt help noticin some comments I never replied to and others...and I've discovered after watching this for the 50th time....is that: 1. We need a Fisherman's Horizon Solo- and i'm so Ready for that! The gamers have spoken after all ;-D 2. I , too, want a shuffle or boogie solo x-D that is definately one of my favorite tracks on there!!!! the jazzy tune, and the choir of "heys" is just super cool!
I would like to thank you for your singing on FisherMan, your voice is perfect, I have listened to your passage at least 200 times! :) (its not a joke)
Grandissimi TH-camr di tutto il mondo che collaborano per suonare dell' eccellente musica riarrangiata è qualcosa di veramente fantastico! Grazie a tutti per lo splendido lavoro.
Had to put a jacket on because of all the chillssss!!! You did amazing at mixing/playing/arranging/editing, and all of the guests were outstanding. I can appreciate how much work went into this, can't imagine editing all of this! I was so excited to see this in my feed. Can't wait for part 2 ;)
Es muy bueno lo que haces vi tus vídeos y la verdad disfrute escuchando la música y viendo las imágenes del juego. Gracias por compartir, saludos desde Argentina.
i was actually on your channel yesterday, wondering if you where still making covers, or still making videos at all. Glad to see that time was well invested. the music alone is amazing, but the editing makes it even better!
Amazing performances from everyone, the first 10 seconds drew me in and I watched the entire video. That is hard to do with a Medley that is almost 20 minutes. Where is part 2! I NEED IT!
Just to sum up here for anyone watching this or those who haven't. This is the definition of EPIC. You go to a dictionary and search the word EPIC and this video and its later sister video, (part 2) are displayed. Loved it and helps get me through the working day!
I am very familiar with the music of this game and I must say I am very impressed with the song choices, the order you played them in, and the transitions between them they are very good choices implemented brilliantly and fishermen's horizon with beautiful singing is so good! I am very impressed with this first part
it is all due to Marc's incredibly artistic talent and vision that it turned out this way, bringing so many from around the world and being such a wonderful conductor. And thank you so much for liking Fisherman's Horizon :-) I put so much of my soul into those lyrics and harmonies :)
It took you a year. Now I understand why. I like it so much. Made me remember how much Nobuo did a great job with FF8 soundtrack. Thank you for giving me a positive push to my life through your music :)

Anyone else blown away that the quality of the cut-scenes are still good by today's standards?
Yep ! Still looks beautiful to me :)
AICabal AICabal the settings in this game, all being pre rendered backgrounds, will probably look good forever. This and the older resident evil games share a similar style and they all hold up visually in that respect. It's pretty cool.
Wouldn't have expected less from a time when technology was less a crutch on art and more of a enhancement of art.
yup lol
Quistis still takes my breath away

me too! Love it so much.
found out about this channel 9 years later, and I absolutely love it. WTH are you doing YT algorithm, seriously
What can I say ? 2020 still the best FF VIII medley :)
It's the ONLY good one! Well since I heard Marc's one first, now every time I listen to another one I think it sucks :D
Still the best till today 2024
Fisherman's Horizon, what a limit break, FF VIII has a lot of calm and soothing music.
love the analogy! thank you so much!
Listening on the game's 23rd anniversary....still my favorite music ever. Brings tears to my eyes when the sax at 16:03 starts.
Nobuo Uematsu's music certainly played a huge part in me enjoying this series so much. The fact that he's now done with the series, empties its soul a lot.
I really hope all of you folks watch this and feel really proud of yourselves. This is a really inspiring effort and I hope folks start to pay more attention to your incredible musical and artistic skill!

FFVIII had the most impressive soundtrack in the series IMO. You did it justice here.
+Makoto Yuki I agree, while it's not on the top as my number one Final Fantasy game, it by far has my favorite soundtracks.
From ff6 till ff9 soundtracks are awesome!

Masterfully arranged. We need a VIII Remake already ;__;

I've read mixed reviews on the Steam version so I'm holding out on a proper HD remaster. I know there are mods, but it's not quite there yet.
Best ff8 tribute ever!! [PART1]
Absolutely amazing, your FF8 medley is part of my playlist on Google PlayMusic for 2 years now, I go to your youtube page to leave a comment and find out that there is a FF9 and FF 10 medley !!
Omg best Christmas present !!
Yes I've made medleys for FF5, 6, 8, 9 and 10 ! Plus a few pieces from FF7 and 13-2 :) Enjoy !!
Outstanding. This, along with your FFIX medley are easily the best FF music videos online. :)
This is amazing. I'm so glad someone reworked all of this great music. You're a talented musician, glad you chose to use your abilities for such a good cause!
I always come back to this. I love it. Thank you Marc and collaborators. Years of enjoyment
Du grand art en barre de fanservice, comme d'habitude.
Énorme travail !
This is amazing! Both parts are fantastic. A great tribute to an amazing and underrated soundtrack! Thank you and everyone else for doing such a phenomenal job.
Holy shit... I just found out about this and I gotta say you made me very happy. So much nostalgic feelings hearing these tracks. I could still name some of the tracks I like. I had lots of memories on the PS1 with Final Fantasy VIII! Thankyou!!!
Glad you liked it ;) FF OSTs are such big nostalgia trips :)
Ah, memories. This game popped my RPG cherry, tho i was raised with mom playing the nes/snes SEEDs growing up. Within a week of discovering this game at 16 I was hellbent on going to Fullsail to become the first American character designer for Squaresoft. 13 years later I work maintenance at a Marriott; poignant nostalgia. :-) Thank you truly, this is a well executed effort my friends. Nobuo Uematsu must be delighted.
Magnifique ! Superbe interprétation de "The Mission" notamment. Je suis impatient d'écouter la partie II :)
Merci à toi ! La suite samedi ;)
Another example of Marc's enthusiasm for excellent music! Well done :)
Une pièce magnifique! Merci à toi Marc et à tous tes invités pour votre travail! Un sacré voyage grâce à vos interprétations magnifiques. Hâte d'avoir la suite, mais prenez votre temps pour faire encore de plus belles pièces!!
Je ne me lasserai jamais de tes chansons, Marc. MERCI.
That feeling at 12:02 when the elec piano comes in with the guitar, so many chills. Amazing work!
I honestly waited EAGERLY for an entire year for your next medley. I'm a huge fan of Nobuo and a huge fan of you. Once again, you've done an absolutely amazing job. Please keep going man!
You deserve more views, likes, and subs! Fantastic arrangement
Many thanks 🙏
You are a legend
Back again to say this is the best FFVIII medley I've heard and I'm so glad Part II is here now as well
I don’t get how you don’t have 7 digit views. Keep it up, you’re my go to place for teenage nostalgia.
I am speechless, Marc! Everytime I watch your new video it turns out to be the greatest game music collab cover EVER! Can't even imagine how much work went into this. When can we expect Part 2?
Thanks man ! Part 2's on its way, working on it as I speak ;)
C'est clairement la plus belle version de Fisherman's Horizon que j'ai jamais entendu de toute ma vie. Même meilleur que la version Orchestral de Distant Worlds. DU bon travail, je suis vraiment fan
je veux dire merci :)
Merci beaucoup !
Pour célébrer les 10 ans du Medley, voici la version longue de la chanson :)

Fishermans horizon....that song never fail to bring tears to my eyes.
Thanks a lot !
Today we have actually released a full 7-min version of it :)

Je n'ai pas connu le jeu hélas... Mais heureusement grâce à vous je découvre ces petits chefs d'oeuvre. Magnifiquement executé, tout le monde envoie du lourd, les voix sont sublimes, les sons maitrisés. Le tout est très cohérent et s'enchaine si bien que je devine à peine les transitions. Un vrai régal du début à la fin ! Bravo j'achète !
+asstab Merci beaucoup ! Et si un jour vous avez l'occasion de jouer au jeu n'hésitez pas ! A l'image de l'OST, c'est une petite merveille ;)
I'm at a loss for words. I grew up with these soundtracks. I can't even begin to imagine how much time and effort went to this video and I'm only at Part 1. You deserve at least ten-fold the views for this masterpiece.
The cutting, the transitions, all those different musicians and instruments, all cut together without any flaws. Simply fantastic.
Marc, I can't even imagine how much work went into making this video. (and it's only part 1!) Fantastic, just fantastic. It was good seeing Songe here, too!
Marc, you have yet to disappoint on absolutely blowing me away with these. You and your collaborators are nothing s hort of amazing. Thank you!
Thank you very much Dylan ! Very glad you're enjoying them 🙂
So, I came back here again to listen to the whole thing and re watch all the beautiful FF8 scenes, reliving the times and hours I worked on this with you, and I couldnt help noticin some comments I never replied to and others...and I've discovered
after watching this for the 50th time....is that:
1. We need a Fisherman's Horizon Solo- and i'm so Ready for that! The gamers have spoken after all ;-D
2. I , too, want a shuffle or boogie solo x-D that is definately one of my favorite tracks on there!!!! the jazzy tune, and the choir of "heys" is just super cool!
I would like to thank you for your singing on FisherMan, your voice is perfect, I have listened to your passage at least 200 times! :) (its not a joke)
I have both this and the FF9 ones on my i-pod, and is my favorite thing to listen to when I am relaxing or looking to get my creative juices flowing.
I love the transition of the game screen combined with the footage of you and the other collaborators playing that transitions with it
this is so epic :'(
I cry for this game!
Thank you!
Grandissimi TH-camr di tutto il mondo che collaborano per suonare dell' eccellente musica riarrangiata è qualcosa di veramente fantastico! Grazie a tutti per lo splendido lavoro.
Molte grazie !
Had to put a jacket on because of all the chillssss!!! You did amazing at mixing/playing/arranging/editing, and all of the guests were outstanding. I can appreciate how much work went into this, can't imagine editing all of this! I was so excited to see this in my feed.
Can't wait for part 2 ;)
Can't wait for everyone to hear it too ;)
Es muy bueno lo que haces vi tus vídeos y la verdad disfrute escuchando la música y viendo las imágenes del juego. Gracias por compartir, saludos desde Argentina.
¡ Muchas gracias !
Ami part was so sexy and it made me want to cry. T_T Thank you for your dedication and other that worked together!
i was actually on your channel yesterday, wondering if you where still making covers, or still making videos at all.
Glad to see that time was well invested. the music alone is amazing, but the editing makes it even better!
nicely done with the Fisherman's Horizon! didnt expect that comin'!
YOU DID A DISGUSTINGLY GOOD JOB WITH EVERYTHING MAN
Amazing performances from everyone, the first 10 seconds drew me in and I watched the entire video. That is hard to do with a Medley that is almost 20 minutes. Where is part 2! I NEED IT!
I just want the entirety of "Liberi Fatali". The crew you assembled for the vocals is excellent!
This may be the best video on the internet :)
Just to sum up here for anyone watching this or those who haven't. This is the definition of EPIC. You go to a dictionary and search the word EPIC and this video and its later sister video, (part 2) are displayed.
Loved it and helps get me through the working day!
I swear, I have my hand on my mouth to keep myself from jumping and screaming in excitement! And that goes for both parts!
I am very familiar with the music of this game and I must say I am very impressed with the song choices, the order you played them in, and the transitions between them they are very good choices implemented brilliantly and fishermen's horizon with beautiful singing is so good! I am very impressed with this first part
it is all due to Marc's incredibly artistic talent and vision that it turned out this way, bringing so many from around the world and being such a wonderful conductor. And thank you so much for liking Fisherman's Horizon :-) I put so much of my soul into those lyrics and harmonies :)
This is the most epic thing i've seen in a long time
This game brings back some work related memories.
This is soooo terrific. I can't stop jamming along to in my drumset. Bravo!
It took you a year. Now I understand why. I like it so much. Made me remember how much Nobuo did a great job with FF8 soundtrack. Thank you for giving me a positive push to my life through your music :)
