We literally spent a week in the Studio. I know what you mean on some of them. But the three that I sang, May's, Baiken's, and Johnny's theme, just needed to be less lyrical. When all of the original lyrics were translated into english then jammed in the song, it sounded ridiculous and less like a real song and more like a cheesy nintendo rushed song. trust me. I calmed it down into something listenable. And I enjoy your passion over the songs, they are fun memories for me. Jay had cont
@Trophykiller1 I don't know if you're still here on youtube, but I would honestly like to know how you guys came up with the catchy lyrics. I can't get them out of my head😂 I wanna teach myself to come up with songs but I don't know where to start
Jay had litte to work with and did a fantastic job producing. The Japanese producers were incredible too. This was such a "done on the fly" thing. I re-wrote this song and sang it in the studio in one night. Never hearing it before ever. We also had no background training on GG or what anything meant. We didnt have back story or pics of our character's either. But to be honest I did know it was a dude reading a letter that a chick wrote to him. Thanks for listening.
Man, if this really is you on the vocals, I wish you could've done the vocals for all the tracks. The other guys take some getting used to, but you the tracks such good justice
Dark7Knights1, Thanks for posting this and other GG tracks from 2004. You must like them if you posted them, and I appreciate that. We worked hard recording these songs and know that there are fans out there somewhere. Life goes by fast and you have to cherish these moments and memories. These songs are special to me, and always will be. Our band was called General X, and then it changed to Not forgotten. But be careful, there is another band called Not forgotten that sucks bad. youl getit
Its such a treat hearing your backstory to how these songs were recorded! You put a ton of soul into them! I am an aspiring producer as well and have a plan to start recording Guilty Gear covers once I can afford the software and equipment. You are a huge inspiration!
@@srzeta5617 Building up a basement studio is a slow process. Currently saving up for 2 sm57s and some drums. I'll probably be at it for a while before I actually get a cover going but it will happen eventually haha!
Thanks for noticing. I thought it was one of the coolest too. Personally I am in Love with Baiken's Theme. I had the most fun recording that song, and writing out the translations. It was some hard core dark rock. Just to let everyone know, My band who I will not name here, is working on some brand new Video Game tracks for some very big games at the moment. Which I am obligated to not name. If you want all new songs for all new stuff, you can check out the posts I will leave here l8r.
This song gives me the impression of Johnny reading a love letter from May, with May embarrassed and looking up a Johnny while the rest of the crew is sneaking peeks around at the two of them. Just for extra hilarity, May's letter are the lyrics to the song.
I love how my comment was flagged as spam. I am the singer of these songs. Funny! unbelievable. My name is Mike. Seriously. I just recently found these tracks on TH-cam and didnt even know they were posted. This was years ago. hhaha. Spam. That's cool. Anyways everyone, thanks for the positive comments and likes.
You told a lot of heart warming anecdotes, but you provide little evidence to prove that anything you said was true. Don't you have any links to stage performances or whatever? Does your band have a social media presence yet? I really wanna believe that you're the vocalist credited as MIKE, but anyone can say they're the singer for a niche album for a niche game.
my brother would be so mad that I would pick may and win every time. We would play for chores money and even sometimes food and I’ll win every time don’t make it better I choose this level music every time lol ah the good days
Vinny, I seriously love your stage name I told my whole band about you and we are gonna check out your stuff. I wont take your name to start a band, it is yours, i was just kidding )). But damn it will always be one of the ones I wish I made up! See what a cool name can do! Keep Dominating VR!
well no May maybe bubbuly but dont forget shes still a pirate and thats what pirates besis Potemkin is thuth he prabuly just have a sure back for a few days
I had to learn how to like the song by itself. Don't really find the lyrics appropriate compared to the original song, but it stays to the beat, and that's a big plus. Awesome guitar work. After a couple of times on repeat, it wasn't so bad. Not gonna beat the original Japanese version any time soon though.
@ReiKusanagi They had fixed the license problems, but no GG is at work. probably they'll make one only after consuming the BB trademark, that would be at least 3/4 years
@Urumaka Only characters shown directly in GG2 are Sol, Dizzy and Ky. Dizzy isn't playable and is an NPC. May's captain of the Jellyfish Crew as shown from the drama CDs. She's likely still alive during the events of GG2. I-No is killed by Baiken in AC I believe. Those are the only confirmed things that happen by GG2. I personally wanted to know what happened to Bridget, I hope nothing killed him.
As with a number of these these vocals I think the English and Japanese Versions sound entirely different, like 2 different songs entirely, especially this one, and also Holy Orders, I might want to listen to one or the other....
@soey98 Taokaka is May's equivalent, not the other way around. Both are random and childish to a fault. Both throw things at their enemies, and both are cute.
@Heu3BecTHo Potemkin's been dead since AC. It may or may not be canon in his ending. Also, Johnny is another confirmed death between GG AC and GG 2 Overture.
@Vergil1Dante0 I was thinking Taokaka is May equivalent, but the comes along Platinum the Trinity for blazblue continuum shift and I think she could be May's equivalent too.
Dude, I wish my you tube name was Vinny Raptor. ghhgh. Thats what im gonna name my new band. I just have to go find some dude from Jersey with a Hawk-Mullet and long painted claws. VR you just made my week.
@BeautifuButPsychotic I never played GG2 but I'm assuming since you don't see anyone other than Sol and Ky everyone else is either dead or missing. e_o
@soey98 May is japanese and doesn't know it Taokaka and the kakaclan are clones of the grimalkin's and don't know it Both are very strong for there ages, have similar personalities, and have hidden powers.
She's got super strength due to her being Japanese. Japanese people in this game have a high percentage of Ki and can use magic in different ways thus why That Man tried to destroy Japan and kill all the inhabitants.
I always had mixed feelings about how May was raised by Johnny yet somehow she fell in love with him and yet Johnny probably doesnt realize his adoptive daughter (basically) loves him like a husband. lol
@@madskillsgamer128 yeah that's not pedophilia if May is the one with the hots. Another thing is I don't see whats so pedophilic about Guilty Gear either because I don't see anyone getting hurt and i don't see any endorsement of child porn or pedophilia either to be honest. Its just a form of entertainment they made up based on the fact that many Japanese women look young for their age.
@BeautifuButPsychotic Daisuke said in an interviwe he had already done the draws for a cyborg Potemkin and a president Chipp: probably he haven't used in GG2 'cause the legal problmes with SEGA sammy. Old story.
Probably. I'm pretty sure this song is from her to Johnny. She might actually be legal, too, if she's Japanese and Japanese people in GG universe are under the same constitution they have today... (Constitutional age of consent in Japan is 13, but most prefectures have their own laws setting it higher, usually to 18 or so.)
The music Industry is a beautiful force of nature that can also swallow up many great specimens and works of art and music. Hence my pic of the lion. The lions today aren't necessarily the best examples that have ever existed. Luck, circumstance, and the whims of a few can definitely send the best into oblivion. Well, we just might be able to pull some of it out of the abyss. With your support and comments, you can help build something beautiful. follow trophykiller1 for now and I will let you know what the official channel name will be. Your studio band cravings, i hope, will be satisfied. And plus, I can help clear up the speculation on the band members and what they are all doing. well at least what this one is doing……Thanks
Um they do exist? Black beard was an actual person. We just don't know much of the history. If there were no such thing as pirates, where would we get the idea in the first place?

May is adorable and her theme is always paafecto
Facts May's peak
This is amazing. It's almost as if this person has a life and didn't care to edit the comment to correct the typo.
This song goes so hard actually. It has that vibe and that energy to it...
And it fits May very well too!
Especially Strive May since she matured more and more the years lore wise.
i really like the fact that the vocals follow only partially the guitar tune, making the song...different.
Damn, i REALLY like it.
The vocals in here are spetacular. Pure heart.
Thanks for noticing. I thought it was one of the coolest too. Personally I am in Love with Baiken's Theme. I had the most fun recording that song, and writing out the translations.

Reminds me of early 2000s pop-rock grunge
Grew on me
3:00 they done murdered Potemkin, they flee the scene
Sounds like a love song. How sweet! :)
This guy and the one who did Chipp’s/Faust’s themes are fire with the vocals.
This song gives me Foo Fighters Everlong vibes and I love it!
Hands down my favorite GG character theme - puts me in such a good mood 🙏
Oh man. It’s beautiful.
May theme has the most beautiful lyrics 😭
the lyrics stays with the beat so i'm happy
Amazing vocal cover!!!.greetings from Argentina ✌️
May ❤
This song gives me the impression of Johnny reading a love letter from May, with May embarrassed and looking up a Johnny while the rest of the crew is sneaking peeks around at the two of them.
Just for extra hilarity, May's letter are the lyrics to the song.
Bro i wish
これ最高だよなあ
The english version is almost as addictive as the japanese : /
Really great *g*
I cried
thats my GIRL right there
3:00 and then may saves dizzy by killing potemkin, the end
i think thats what Johnny sings for her
Hm...never think that way
I love how my comment was flagged as spam. I am the singer of these songs. Funny! unbelievable.

May is all grown up!
May is waifu!!!

I DONT CARE THIS IS THE BEST SONG.
Oh shit this is dope
I get an early The Offspring vibe off of this. I like this.
Agree
Vinny, I seriously love your stage name I told my whole band about you and we are gonna check out your stuff. I wont take your name to start a band, it is yours, i was just kidding )). But damn it will always be one of the ones I wish I made up! See what a cool name can do!

ok i understand. thank for the info
commence head bobbin. :p
this remember me to Crush40.
God, aliens, ghosts, goblins, any fantasy creature...
I sang Johnny's theme and Baiken's theme as well guys. Enjoy.!
Uh, just noticed... There's an ANCHOR in Potemkin at 3:01. Like, impaling his back So, is May some kind of homicidal psycho?
well no May maybe bubbuly but dont forget shes still a pirate and thats what pirates besis Potemkin is thuth he prabuly just have a sure back for a few days
Lol well, don't fuck with may and you won't get an anchor in your back.
Someone please put this on spotify 😭

Ya!!! May Fly To Sky !!!!!!!!!
Queen's "Bohemian Rhapsody" is one of the best songs of all time and it's never mentioned the "title" in the entire song. Your argument is invalid :D
@ReiKusanagi They had fixed the license problems, but no GG is at work.
probably they'll make one only after consuming the BB trademark, that would be at least 3/4 years
@Urumaka Only characters shown directly in GG2 are Sol, Dizzy and Ky. Dizzy isn't playable and is an NPC. May's captain of the Jellyfish Crew as shown from the drama CDs. She's likely still alive during the events of GG2. I-No is killed by Baiken in AC I believe. Those are the only confirmed things that happen by GG2.

early 2000s radio
@CalmtheFoxxdown Well, she IS 16. That's legal in the UK so you don't need to worry too bad.
@NefariousDreary
Ever since you FOUND ME OUT, I can hear your voice.
As with a number of these these vocals I think the English and Japanese Versions sound entirely different, like 2 different songs entirely, especially this one, and also Holy Orders, I might want to listen to one or the other....
@FenrirWerewolfe I heard that they recently overcome such problems and that Daisuke's at work making a new GG game.
Who else thinks the singer sounds like the lead guy of Foo Fighters?
@soey98 Taokaka is May's equivalent, not the other way around. Both are random and childish to a fault. Both throw things at their enemies, and both are cute.
fanx for lyrics dood
@grashbar to high? It's awsome! This world doesn't have enough imagination!
May is best girl in guilty gear. Fight me.
damn straight king
@Heu3BecTHo Potemkin's been dead since AC. It may or may not be canon in his ending. Also, Johnny is another confirmed death between GG AC and GG 2 Overture.

@BeautifuButPsychotic I never played GG2 but I'm assuming since you don't see anyone other than Sol and Ky everyone else is either dead or missing. e_o
"These pirates"
He didn't mean pirates in general.
@FenrirWerewolfe Potemkin is still dead as a doornail for the time being. There's no cyborg Potemkin unless you mean Robo-temkin.
its nice some of it....just wish it had kept some of the original english lyrics of the song already.
BON VOYAAAGE
@soey98 May is japanese and doesn't know it
Taokaka and the kakaclan are clones of the grimalkin's and don't know it
Both are very strong for there ages, have similar personalities, and have hidden powers.
I think May is mexican
She's got super strength due to her being Japanese. Japanese people in this game have a high percentage of Ki and can use magic in different ways thus why That Man tried to destroy Japan and kill all the inhabitants.
@FenrirWerewolfe they did say a cross over was possible
If she is, shes singing to Johnny.
I believe Baz would sound better in this...
Well he already done that waaaaaay long before the story XD
@grashbar modern pirates do exist, but they aren't the same as in the old tales.
Not an anime. It's from a video game series called Guilty Gear.
I always had mixed feelings about how May was raised by Johnny yet somehow she fell in love with him and yet Johnny probably doesnt realize his adoptive daughter (basically) loves him like a husband. lol
etrotm12 the Blue Wolf Pedophilia in anime and anime (de)based videogames. That's what it is. That is why I stopped playing this game series.
@@madskillsgamer128 yeah that's not pedophilia if May is the one with the hots.

1:49 is he saying "Ever since you felt me up, I can hear your voice"?
You do have a point
But still,I love this XD
Mess with may, and you get an anchor in the back. lol!,
Swoon
@BeautifuButPsychotic
Daisuke said in an interviwe he had already done the draws for a cyborg Potemkin and a president Chipp: probably he haven't used in GG2 'cause the legal problmes with SEGA sammy. Old story.
I like both her and her theme...
i simply wish she may have been
as mature as Baiken,Millia,Jam
and Dizzy ,though.
Never mind that. :D
Reminds me for some reason of Mega Man X PS1 games
I've wondered is May's anchor sharpened? The design looks like its been sharpened a bit
Wait does May have a bigger 2d chest than in 3d, lol
Probably. I'm pretty sure this song is from her to Johnny.
She might actually be legal, too, if she's Japanese and Japanese people in GG universe are under the same constitution they have today...
(Constitutional age of consent in Japan is 13, but most prefectures have their own laws setting it higher, usually to 18 or so.)
needs both lol
Funny I expected the vocal's to be sung by a girl. BUT either way This theme is awesome i like the vocals it fits may's feelings
0:30 Эй пацаны вы чего
thumbs up if u think guilty gear is better than blazeblue
May no fusenshou!
This sounds like an unreleased song by Sponge
Vinny Raptor. I wish that was my you tube name.

so much hawter than the strive diesgn
why does this remind of sonic a little bit?
At first I wasn't sure what you meant but then suddenly the penny dropped as you no doubt mean like an Adventure vocal track right
@JPG816 Lol fail on me. I didn't realize the lyrics were in the description.......
GG for ps3 better have this version of may theme
Um they do exist? Black beard was an actual person. We just don't know much of the history. If there were no such thing as pirates, where would we get the idea in the first place?
@trophykiller1 I actually like Mays vocal.theme , the rest.. well you did your best..right?
What about A Simple Life?
Great song
But what band is playing this
version?
Matt Zane of "Not Forgotten"
@bag0k No I'm pretty sure it's cool to like it.
