The FF14 community is filled with amazingly talented people, and we'll always have a place for you (even if you didn't like Mortal Instants/'neath Dark Waters - we'll forgive you for being wrong)
This is our community Jesse. It's an amazing group of people. Husky's 1000 players sing is also a great one to do if anyone ever recommends it. But the community is just awesome and full of wonderful people.
@@Ladywizard the 1000 person 1 yes. It might have been on Alex’s channel and I misspoke. Sadly I can’t edit the OP as that will delete the like from Jesse. Changing an OP a channel owner likes will delete it so you can’t ninja edit something offensive in.
@@Varizen87 Yeah, confirmed it. The 'Close In the Distance (with 1000 singers)' track is on Alex's channel... but it was a project both Alex and Husky wrangled. Also +1 for viewing that one before moving on... it's an amazing piece.
I forget where he mentioned it, but it took him somewhere in the triple digits for hours of editing (and he did do it himself). This video, his other medley and Alex Moukala's community medleys are the embodiment of music bringing people together. Different walks of life, nationalities, languages, ages and genders... they all come together to play out of love for this game and music- and it is the most wholesome thing to brighten your day.
What’s so wild to me is that I started playing FF14 when you first reacted to its music on your channel, so you’re ingrained into my mind as a piece of the community. I know you don’t even play it, but you’re an honorary warrior of light to me dude! Congrats on your growing success!
I had the honor of lending my voice to this project! Seeing it come together was absolutely astounding and I'm blown away by how much work went into it. Everyone did an incredible job -- including the time and patience that must have gone into editing it all together. I'm delighted you enjoyed it!
Jesse I am on my knees, after watching this I truly truly need you to watch the 1000 singers close in the distance cover. You’ve listened to close in the distance, but the giant fan cover is so insanely good and you need to see it
Limsa Lominsa, Ul'dah, and Gridania are the 3 starting cities, so seasoned players have probably heard those for hundreds of hours, and all players would have heard them when they started game. It's awesome to see you recognizing so many of the tracks now despite never having played :)
Husky is SO talented. He's organized several of these community projects for XIV and they're all excellent. I hope you get to check out more of them as time goes on. I know I've listened to this when it came out, but listening to it again made me start spontaneously tearing up. Damn onion ninjas invading my office again.
The other video of the community singing "Close in the Distance" was a really great tribute to Endwalker and the culmination of the journey leading up to that point.
Stuff like this is how you know a game is special. When it can bring a community together like this to create something so epic... I've never experience anything like it. So glad I've been playing for the last 10 years.
@@Katzyn This and the other 1000 singer collab video gets me every damn time. You need me to cry on cue? Just play "Through you we live; tales of loss, and fire and faith..."
I have to imagine Husky arranged it, then managed the project, contacted 199 artists, picked parts for them... and THEN edited them all together while self-imposing a deadline for the 10th anniversary. He shreds in this video, sure, but the logistics of this impress me too.
I'm so glad you found it worth making an exception. This is perfect timing since the 10th anniversary is still going on in game. Thank you for showing the 14 community love and we can see you're just as passionate as we are! You're excitement in this reaction is palpable and so fun to watch you enjoying and sharing in our adventure even if it is only through the music! Heres to 10 more years!! "That's a fine accomplishment lad. Young and lusty as you are, no doubt you'll achieve much and more in the years to come. I look forward to hearin' all your deeds." - Jonathas, Master of the Rolls, Old Gridania
I have to say "Thank you!" to the people who made this request in my stead. Literally, the second thought that popped in my head after watching was that somebody should totally request this video for Jesse's Auditorium. I'm glad I got to see this today!
I fully expected the request to be shot down with the "No covers" rule. Glad you and Husky have talked, y'all both work so hard and now I'm hyped for collabs! I can't fathom the work that went into making this, the composing, arranging, editing, finding people of all skill levels a spot to shine, just a tremendous effort. Agreed, everyone here has balls for putting themselves out there like this. I've watched this video too many times and am still finding and hearing easter eggs. 69420 niiiice. edit: glad you were able to "turn off" and just enjoy the show for a bit. You say nostalgia, and it hits everyone a bit. Yo that sax btw. Don't say "couldn't do." say "haven't done yet"
There are a ton of amazing musicians and artists in the community. the talent is unreal. Also spot on, this is exactly the sort of cool shit that belongs on youtube. Maybe one day you'll get around to watching the one with all the vocal covers for the game. It's super cool as well!
Very grateful for the artists for this mind-blowing project. Thanks for the exception to make the video, and glad you enjoy. And you covered a lots already. This community is really such a precious place, and I am quite sure you are well involved.

It definitely felt like TH-cam was meant for this I'm so glad you checked it out I still need to play XIV for real at some point (and continue after A Realm Reborn this time ;-;)
I now you have probably heard this before but the free trial starting next week now goes up to stormblood (the second expansion) so lots of content for free. Also they cut out a lot of the arr fluff so you may have a better experience this time
Ahhhh the medley's always ALWAYS hit me in the feels. I don't know what it is about them, I even shed some tears during the Endwalker trailer... anyways, been following your channel since your first few reacts to the game music and I've enjoyed them all since. I think it's about time to welcome you to the FFXIV community as an actual member! You might not play the game but hearing your appreciation for the music of the game is awesome. Would love to see some collabs with you, Husky and the gang. *There's a FFXIV playlist on Spotify with 670 songs starting from ARR that run through SHB* Crazy to think there are still so many different songs to listen to! Can't wait to see some more reacts..
I've been looking forward to this since you mentioned it in an earlier video. One thing I really enjoy with react videos is seeing if songs from the game have the same emotional impact without the context of the moment it comes from. This collab has me choking down sobs every time, I really hope you enjoyed it
I'm so glad you got to do this! I know you haven't listened and you caught it in the list, but there's 4 versions of Heroes -- Heroes, Heroes Never Die, an orchestra version of Heroes, and a Primals band version of Heroes. Had I the time or money I'd slap all four together in a request 'cause I'd love to hear what you think of any of them. Related to those songs I'm surprised no one has requested Revenge Twofold or it's orchestral counterpart, they're like the Torn from the Heavens of the Heavensward expansion (so expect to hear the Heavensward leifmotifs!). Surely one way or another those songs will reach you someday! Thank you for doing what you do and I'm so happy you got a glimpse of FFXIV's musical community.
I'm so glad you did that. That brought tears to my eyes! It wasn't just the music and the memories of the game. It's really about watching people coming together who share a love for something and making something great together. Separately we may not run into anyone like us with our interests and talents, but TH-cam gives us so much reach to find your community and feel understood and seen. I hope you feel like that, even a little bit with us watching your reactions.
Thank you for reacting and listening to this! That was a great surprise! Husky did do such an amazing job with this. Kudos to him indeed! It was an honor to play a bit part in this and will always gladly do it again if I get another opportunity. Also, I've tried to get one of these guitars too but they were sold out so quickly, I had no chance.
Players have gone through the journey of the story, & memories of playing the game. Some, even fresher to it than you are your first reaction. You've gone on your own journey to get here, & while not through the game, it's also been w/ it, so we're bonded through the music. Great work dude. Here's to keeping it up & continuing to grow.
So many talented people indeed. I can play several instruments but I can't really play them all that well. I can sing... but I'll never have the singing voice of many of these people. It's not just talent, though. It's a testament to hours upon hours of bleeding fingers and damaged vocal chords :)
Hi Jesse. I just saw your reaction to Wild Arms again and, after hearing you say about the Dollar Trilogy, I just searched TH-cam for the theme and loved it. Them I remembered, I really think you would love The Sawmill from The Outlaws.
Another fantastic vid Jesse. Gonna echo what everyone else has said and say you owe it to yourself and your ff14 musical journey to listen to community sings close in the distance
What a pleasant surprise! I agree with you about it feeling like classic TH-cam videos with it just being a video of people being talented and sharing what they love with the world. Also Husky Jesse collab hype!
Now you HAVE to watch close in the distance with 1k singers. And you said this is why you love youtube. For me, it was video game music videos. I loved whatching them when I was younger and even tried to make some of my own. Have you considered checking out video game music vids? Theres alot of incredibly well edited vids out there
Husky also made another one, where he got 1000 singers together, among others the woman who sang the deeper voice of A Beautiful Song for Nier Automata. You should check that out to, even if it's just to watch/listen by yourself without putting it on the channel. Something I find fascinating is the spread of people you see here. From youngsters, to people using vTuber avatars to people beyond 40 years in age, all united by a single "game" albeit calling FF14 merely a game falls short to what it means to many of us. I love the shirt of the guy who plays the Xylophon with just one hand. ^^ I wish someone could get Soken and Yoshi P into a room, show them this medley and record their reaction.
The funnest part of the Otamatone memes and the La Hee song memes is that the one who started it was the composer of the song itself. Soken is a hilarious guy. P.S. Jesse knows the names of these songs more immediately than I do and I play XIV and collect Orchestrion rolls in the game lmao
Yeah, for a lot of people, the thing with Soken playing otamatone starts with the pre-endwalker digital fan fest performance, but I swear I remember like a video from a fan fest in like the early heavensward era on reddit where somebody handed him an otamatone while meeting him in an open convention floor setting at a fanfest or something and he made an attempt to play it and it had been a smaller ongoing meme for a while until the la-hee @ fanfest moment.
@@kawaxiv They did, and his first performance with them was the Yanxia theme song. Obviously nowhere near as accessible to find because it wasn't streamed, but you can find cell phone footage videos up on TH-cam.
Limsa Lominsa, Gridania and Ul'dah, are the names of the three cities in which you can start the game, and the tracks with the same names are the overworld themes you hear while being in said cities. That's also why they pop up so early in that colaboration.
The first few songs, the main city songs, are super underrated because people will spend most of their time in the cities. Ul'dah ("A New Hope") is my favourite because it's one of those that feels like the beginning of a journey (I feel Ul'dah is the "canon location" where your character's story is meant to begin if you follow canon storylines) with the night time version ("Sultana Dreaming") is so gentle compared to it and really sleepy, just perfect for chilling out in.
This was so rad I must admit the slightest bit of saltiness that I had no idea this was happening or I certainly would have made an effort to submit too... but alas maybe if the game makes it to 20 years like yoshi-p keeps saying it may be time for a 20 years medley :)
2:37 - This is labelled incorrectly. It's Torn from the Heavens, and not From the Heavens. From The Heavens is a separate track based off Torn from the Heavens. This is Torn from the Heavens, though. 2:50 - I am the Sea (Limsa Lominsa - Daylight Theme) 3:03 - A New Hope (Ul'dah Daylight Theme) 3:17 - [Some other theme I don't recognize] 3:22 - Fallen Angel (Garuda's Theme) 3:35 - Return to Oblivion (Eden's Verse: Refulgence (Shiva)'s Second Phase Theme 3:49 - Under the Weight/Landslide (Titan's Theme, maybe the Eden version, same leitmotif) mixed in with Return to Oblivion 4:02 - Revenge Twofold (3.4 Dungeon Boss theme, later used for Dragon-King Thordan in Dragonsong's Reprise) 4:15 - Heavensward (The Trailer Theme, specifically the "Guide Us, O Mighty Fury, Guide Us to Victory” part) 4:29 - Heavensward (Still, the track incorporates that quick intermission of Torn from the Heavens, but played slowly) 4:55 - Locus (Alexander Boss Theme) 5:14 - Metal (Brute Justice Mode) 5:27 - Triumph (Stormblood Final Dungeon Boss Theme) 6:00 - Wayward Daughter (Timing is off in the chapters here) 7:26 - Guitar Solo (Not any specific track that I recognize) 7:41 - Sunrise (Suzaku Theme) 8:13 - Shadowbringers, obviously. Timing is spot on 8:42 - Insatiable (Shadowbringers Leitmotif, Shadowbringers dungeon boss theme) 9:03 - A Long Fall (The Twinning's Theme) 9:26 - Civilizations (Rak'tika Greatwood Theme #1 - Affectively known as "La-hee!") 10:02 - I don't recognize this myself 10:11 - 'Neath Dark Waters / To The Edge (Again, Same Leitmotif, the tempo leads me to say To The Edge) 10:34 - VERY brief hint of The Maker's Ruin (Ultima Weapon Boss Theme) 10:37 - Track doesn't actually have an official name. It's never been officially released separately. It's part of Footfalls, though. The closest I'd argue this being is "The Maker's Ruin / Footfalls", the phase 2 theme of the final boss of Endwalker 11:06 - Endwalker - Footfalls (Endwalker Trailer Theme) 11:51 - Scream (Pandæmonium 6/7 boss theme) 12:08 - Prelude
Well my comment was deleted for some reason? But hope you react to the FF14 community song as well. 1000+ people sing "Close in the distance" is so amazing
TH-cam just does that, should return soon. Typically happens when a vid is private for schedule and then releases. Idk, billion dollar company. It's been requested so whenever I get to it..
honestly, I'd say on your own time, not even for a video, you might wanna check out "Skar Productions" who shows up multiple times in this video. he's done some really sick covers of a bunch of songs you've heard that I think you'd actually really enjoy
Yo you reacted to this, that's AWESOME ! If you're open to react more at this kind of medley videos from time to time, check out FreddeGredde's work it's some of the highest quality video game medleys I've ever heard, + you would learn about a lot of interesting tracks you might have never heard before.
When are you going to play FFXIV, on Tuesday 6.5 patch drops making free trail all the way through until level 70, no time limit, So you get ARR, Heavensward, and Stormblood for free, xbox beta is also dropping. The music has much more meaning when it is put into context.
Not enough Heavensward or Organ, 1/10. Being serious though, good medley, props to the artists. Then again, plenty of classical medleys everywhere lol.
Thanks for reacting to this, it was awesome to watch ! Glad you enjoyed it that much. Yeah we'll definitely get in touch for the next medley collab 👀
I'm looking forward to this already! 🤩
Adding Jesse to the crew would be awesome; as YoshiP would say, "please look forward to it." I will.
And so my watch begins.
Thanks to Husky for letting me check out the video ✌
Jesse: I've never played ff14
Also Jesse: Casually naming songs as they play 😎
The FF14 community is filled with amazingly talented people, and we'll always have a place for you (even if you didn't like Mortal Instants/'neath Dark Waters - we'll forgive you for being wrong)

@@Ladywizard there is indeed a tribute at the end towards the man himself. Overall a like 100/10 video
adding my vote for this, an absolutely amazing cover!
Jesse: "Dude how many people are playing guitar?"
Video: "Here's three more."
Honestly shed a few tears, this is epic as fuck and a perfect musical love letter from the community. Love this game so much.
there is just something beautiful about seeing a bunch of people come together for something they are passionate about.
Limsa Lominsa, Ul'dah, and Gridania are the 3 starting cities, so seasoned players have probably heard those for hundreds of hours, and all players would have heard them when they started game. It's awesome to see you recognizing so many of the tracks now despite never having played :)
Husky is SO talented. He's organized several of these community projects for XIV and they're all excellent. I hope you get to check out more of them as time goes on.
I know I've listened to this when it came out, but listening to it again made me start spontaneously tearing up. Damn onion ninjas invading my office again.
The other video of the community singing "Close in the Distance" was a really great tribute to Endwalker and the culmination of the journey leading up to that point.
Stuff like this is how you know a game is special. When it can bring a community together like this to create something so epic... I've never experience anything like it. So glad I've been playing for the last 10 years.
When I see videos like this, I always tear up. Something about people coming together for things like this always gets me.
I've seen this video at least a dozen times...probably two dozen times, actually, and I tear up literally every time
@@Katzyn This and the other 1000 singer collab video gets me every damn time. You need me to cry on cue? Just play "Through you we live; tales of loss, and fire and faith..."
As one of the peeps who took part in this, it makes me so happy to see the reactions! ^^
But yeah, huge thanks to Husky for making this happen! ^^

That's exactly what happened 😅
Each song segment names the arranger when it begins. Not just Huskey though he did put in a crazy amount of work.

this is what happens when you get that Bard Limit Break 5 XD
what's funny is the 1k close in the distance there was a visual LB bar going from the "special guests" to everyone
Even if Jesse has never played and never will play FFXIV i somehow considre him part of the community xD

Hi Jesse.
I just saw your reaction to Wild Arms again and, after hearing you say about the Dollar Trilogy, I just searched TH-cam for the theme and loved it.
Them I remembered, I really think you would love The Sawmill from The Outlaws.
man that vid tears me up so much when I see all those people sing footfalls
I'm not even at that expansion and I get the feels
Another fantastic vid Jesse. Gonna echo what everyone else has said and say you owe it to yourself and your ff14 musical journey to listen to community sings close in the distance
What a pleasant surprise! I agree with you about it feeling like classic TH-cam videos with it just being a video of people being talented and sharing what they love with the world.

Damn I can't believe I missed this what a pleasant surprise always enjoy huskys xiv medlies can't wait to see Jesse killing it in the next one 🤘
Much love for Jesse and Husky
Being with the game since around patch 2.2 in 2014 has been a journey for sure.
Just to let you know, the Endwalker one just dropped
he was in it
All that's missing is adding you to this mix
Now you HAVE to watch close in the distance with 1k singers.
And you said this is why you love youtube.
For me, it was video game music videos. I loved whatching them when I was younger and even tried to make some of my own.
Have you considered checking out video game music vids?
Theres alot of incredibly well edited vids out there
“Limsa Lominsa? Never heard of that?”
Ohh my dear sweet summer child 😂
It’s a place of ill repute rofl
I love your energy 😂
whenever I hear a track in 14 one of my first thoughts is I can’t wait to hear jesse react to this one lol
Husky also made another one, where he got 1000 singers together, among others the woman who sang the deeper voice of A Beautiful Song for Nier Automata. You should check that out to, even if it's just to watch/listen by yourself without putting it on the channel.
Something I find fascinating is the spread of people you see here. From youngsters, to people using vTuber avatars to people beyond 40 years in age, all united by a single "game" albeit calling FF14 merely a game falls short to what it means to many of us.
I love the shirt of the guy who plays the Xylophon with just one hand. ^^
I wish someone could get Soken and Yoshi P into a room, show them this medley and record their reaction.
So fucking BADASS! This is what the FF14 community is!
Honestly I hope more people suggest stuff like this
There's a few very cool ones like pokemon battle themes and kirby bosses that are super cool tbh
Man that gave me chills, twice!
The funnest part of the Otamatone memes and the La Hee song memes is that the one who started it was the composer of the song itself. Soken is a hilarious guy.
P.S. Jesse knows the names of these songs more immediately than I do and I play XIV and collect Orchestrion rolls in the game lmao
Yeah, for a lot of people, the thing with Soken playing otamatone starts with the pre-endwalker digital fan fest performance, but I swear I remember like a video from a fan fest in like the early heavensward era on reddit where somebody handed him an otamatone while meeting him in an open convention floor setting at a fanfest or something and he made an attempt to play it and it had been a smaller ongoing meme for a while until the la-hee @ fanfest moment.
@@kawaxiv They did, and his first performance with them was the Yanxia theme song. Obviously nowhere near as accessible to find because it wasn't streamed, but you can find cell phone footage videos up on TH-cam.
I don't know about him being handed it, but he definitely did the Yanxia field theme with one during the Stormblood era Fan Fests! @@kawaxiv
Limsa Lominsa, Gridania and Ul'dah, are the names of the three cities in which you can start the game, and the tracks with the same names are the overworld themes you hear while being in said cities. That's also why they pop up so early in that colaboration.
We want to see Jesse in a medley next year!
The first few songs, the main city songs, are super underrated because people will spend most of their time in the cities. Ul'dah ("A New Hope") is my favourite because it's one of those that feels like the beginning of a journey (I feel Ul'dah is the "canon location" where your character's story is meant to begin if you follow canon storylines) with the night time version ("Sultana Dreaming") is so gentle compared to it and really sleepy, just perfect for chilling out in.
This was so rad I must admit the slightest bit of saltiness that I had no idea this was happening or I certainly would have made an effort to submit too... but alas maybe if the game makes it to 20 years like yoshi-p keeps saying it may be time for a 20 years medley :)
Truly, this medley has no business being as ridiculously good as it is lmao
To give everyone a heads up, Husky is playing for Lunarcon this week. I assume he's playing on TH-cam, I haven't checked how they're running things.
Thanks, it'll be on the Lunarcon twitch channel !
I love Huskys covers but with vocalists they hit even harder
2:37 - This is labelled incorrectly. It's Torn from the Heavens, and not From the Heavens. From The Heavens is a separate track based off Torn from the Heavens. This is Torn from the Heavens, though.
2:50 - I am the Sea (Limsa Lominsa - Daylight Theme)
3:03 - A New Hope (Ul'dah Daylight Theme)
3:17 - [Some other theme I don't recognize]
3:22 - Fallen Angel (Garuda's Theme)
3:35 - Return to Oblivion (Eden's Verse: Refulgence (Shiva)'s Second Phase Theme
3:49 - Under the Weight/Landslide (Titan's Theme, maybe the Eden version, same leitmotif) mixed in with Return to Oblivion
4:02 - Revenge Twofold (3.4 Dungeon Boss theme, later used for Dragon-King Thordan in Dragonsong's Reprise)
4:15 - Heavensward (The Trailer Theme, specifically the "Guide Us, O Mighty Fury, Guide Us to Victory” part)
4:29 - Heavensward (Still, the track incorporates that quick intermission of Torn from the Heavens, but played slowly)
4:55 - Locus (Alexander Boss Theme)
5:14 - Metal (Brute Justice Mode)
5:27 - Triumph (Stormblood Final Dungeon Boss Theme)
6:00 - Wayward Daughter (Timing is off in the chapters here)
7:26 - Guitar Solo (Not any specific track that I recognize)
7:41 - Sunrise (Suzaku Theme)
8:13 - Shadowbringers, obviously. Timing is spot on
8:42 - Insatiable (Shadowbringers Leitmotif, Shadowbringers dungeon boss theme)
9:03 - A Long Fall (The Twinning's Theme)
9:26 - Civilizations (Rak'tika Greatwood Theme #1 - Affectively known as "La-hee!")
10:02 - I don't recognize this myself
10:11 - 'Neath Dark Waters / To The Edge (Again, Same Leitmotif, the tempo leads me to say To The Edge)
10:34 - VERY brief hint of The Maker's Ruin (Ultima Weapon Boss Theme)
10:37 - Track doesn't actually have an official name. It's never been officially released separately. It's part of Footfalls, though. The closest I'd argue this being is "The Maker's Ruin / Footfalls", the phase 2 theme of the final boss of Endwalker
11:06 - Endwalker - Footfalls (Endwalker Trailer Theme)
11:51 - Scream (Pandæmonium 6/7 boss theme)
12:08 - Prelude
I know you opened by saying this is unusual, but if you haven't seen the Community Sings - Close in the Distance collab it's worth checking out.
Was already about to ask you react to the one winged angel.. and realize you were already there hahahaha
Well, we got him to watch a community video. It's only a matter of time before he finally plays it! 🤣
YEEEEEEEEES FINALLY
Haha everytime i listen to endwalker i cant help but think of the final boss fight with zenos , its my favourite moment.
13:17
Heh, Nice.
Well my comment was deleted for some reason? But hope you react to the FF14 community song as well. 1000+ people sing "Close in the distance" is so amazing
TH-cam just does that, should return soon. Typically happens when a vid is private for schedule and then releases.
Idk, billion dollar company.
It's been requested so whenever I get to it..
@@JessesAuditorium Haha cool
69k, nice.
Yeah youtube is made for this type of this, i strongly feel the same
the medley music sounds much much better than the ingame music.
Need to do phase 3 of Dancing Mad Distant Worlds version 😂
honestly, I'd say on your own time, not even for a video, you might wanna check out "Skar Productions" who shows up multiple times in this video. he's done some really sick covers of a bunch of songs you've heard that I think you'd actually really enjoy
Yes, please!
Bruh, I'm just gonna drop this on your most recent FF14 vid, but you gotta check out "Fleeting Moment", from the current FF14 raid tier
Yo you reacted to this, that's AWESOME ! If you're open to react more at this kind of medley videos from time to time, check out FreddeGredde's work it's some of the highest quality video game medleys I've ever heard, + you would learn about a lot of interesting tracks you might have never heard before.
When are you going to play FFXIV, on Tuesday 6.5 patch drops making free trail all the way through until level 70, no time limit, So you get ARR, Heavensward, and Stormblood for free, xbox beta is also dropping. The music has much more meaning when it is put into context.
69.420
Noooo not the Shadow Burgers
react to p12s ost from ffxiv my guy, its great.
Not enough Heavensward or Organ, 1/10.
Being serious though, good medley, props to the artists. Then again, plenty of classical medleys everywhere lol.
Not gonna lie, bro looked like jack sparrow to me 😂.
Fun fact: ff14 actually came out in 2010.
yeah but even the devs dont talk about 1.0 lol
damn good recommendation.
