BADASS SIR!!! HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOU AND YOUR FAMILY. PLEASE KEEP AWESOME CONTENT LIKE THIS COMING🔥💪🏿.

[@jakeybarra]

This game, in my opinion, is the best piece(s) of music ever composed!

[@philstuf]

You did well.. My only complaint is that we need more of things like this... I appreciate what you do, and putting it out for all to see and hear. Your talent is exceptional and should be out there for folks to enjoy and aspire to.

[@DarkenedAuras7653]

I like that he starts with Metal Man, just like every single MM2 playthrough worth its salt. Every. Single. One.

[@jeffreywilliams7641]

I also like how he strips it down a little just to play with expectations (not sure if that was the goal but I approve) and at the end just blows quickman out of the water with how epic it is. P.S. Ollie, what is the best way to support you? I know you have a patreon. I just want to make sure the money goes as directly to you as possible and I've never used patreon before.

[@BlueCometACE]

and THAT is hands down because Metal Man has the best power in any Mega Man game ever. 8 directional shooting with a huge projectile, tiny power cost and can kill like 3 or 4 bosses with it...including Metal Man himself in the rematch!!!

[@philstuf]

To be fair, I always seemed to start with Air Man., Not sure why...

[@dalegleneagles5072]

@@philstuf to fully nerd out, I do too because he's the best to start with to proceed in a way to grab every single hard to reach item (E tanks, one-ups, etc). Plus starting with metal blade makes the rest of the game too damn easy

[@smacdad]

@@philstuf I also start with Air Man. I always found him to be the easiest to beat with the basic weapon.

[@rgr2508]

To put it simple: Capcom should remake the game, and hire Ollie to take care of the soundtrack... given it's already done.

[@MaxOakland]

That’s a cool idea

[@joeywall4657]

I feel like I've been waiting for this for 30 years! This is literally the soundtrack of my childhood. Thanks a lot pal!

[@MozesPaz]

I love this from front to back. Dunno is anyone noticed, but he plays the songs how you should fight the bosses in order and I really appreciate that. 11/10

[@rand64444]

I got all emotional when Wikeys castle came up fucking epic

[@countelmer]

I was fortunate enough to get a very good subwoofer this xmas to round out what was a high quality pair of loud speakers and receiver combo, that was just lacking that hitting, but tonal, low range. It finally showed yesterday, hooked it up today, and, after having SHMUPs rattling the house every time even the tiniest of ships exploded on screen for a few hours, I thought of you, the esteemed Mr. Ollie, and those awesome bass ukulele skills of yours. Having this complete album of MM2 awaiting was just the icing on the cake, and I absolutely love it. I would just like to commend you on the quality of covers you put out, I have been listening to VGM covers for over 2 decades and I feel by far yours are some of the best out there. From musical skill, recording quality, mixing, and instrument choices to your ability to keep the music feeling fresh while, and this part is critical, maintaining the same feeling of energy I felt when I played the games and was immersed into them via the brilliant soundtracks back in the day... on all of this you never disappoint. Plus, I have difficulty explaining why I think so, but the banjo just works as an analog instrument emulation for that chip tune sound from NES up in my brain, and it is super rad to experience. Your Bayou Billy cover is the only one worth listening to on all of KZbin, period. The only baffling part, for me, is that your videos don't all have millions of views. Well done, sir, as always. And thanks for all the music. P.S. If you happen to read this gushing review of your work, please consider putting your music on Tidal, it would be a win/win for you and anyone paying for it. Check out the dosh amount per listen over there vs. spotify or the YT shish-show if you haven't, and then it streams at a higher bitrate.

[@banjoguyollie]

thanks a lot for taking the time to write this. stoked someone's appreciating the effort in getting mixing and mastering just right :) glad you got to experience the bass part of it. I do a lot of work on this even though most people listen from their phone really

[@CZpersi]

With the new generation of artists and musicians, many of whom grew up playing videogames, the videogame music may finally get the recognition it deserves.

[@MrLegendofLP]

...Thank you brentalfloss for recommending this man’s work to me. I’m not nostalgic for Mega Man as a game series, but all of Brent’s Mega Man With Lyrics are engrained in my childhood, and while I don’t seek it out much Folk music is a favorite genre of mine when done well. And this? This is very, VERY well done. Shame on KZbin for not recommending this to me sooner.

[@megamanmarchek8293]

Thank you for all of the great work you do. Never stop making these amazing remixes!

[@banjoguyollie]

awww dude... thanks for much for the support !! first super chat on the channel :)

[@cuddlequeen3225]

Right from the beginning. It's perfect. Some of my favourite VG tracks of all time. Such great versions.

[@banjoguyollie]

thanks

[@Muriboi]

Im replaying the Mega man games at the moment and finished Mega man 2 a while ago. The music made me feel so nostalgic I just had to keep listening to it for a while after the play through so I though “maybe there’s an artist out there who covers Mega man songs on my Favorit instrument?” and that’s how I ended up here. A 27 minute long musical play through of this awesome game with zero dislikes. Let me grab my good headphones, guess I’m in for a ride!

[@fbaillargeon1983]

Holyshit that is excellent! Best game on the Nes

[@vambrozio]

Great job! I played the Mega Man II game in NES in early 90's. It brings memories! Congrats from Brazil!

[@TheYuke]

The amount of work put into this is mindblowing, just like the result! I really like the accordion in Dr Wily Stage one, genius!

[@CMF412]

Whichever of you two picked to have this be the video linked at the end of Brent's vid made a great pick. It was exactly what I was wanting to listen to next.

[@lordcrispen]

Even listening to this and not having heard Brentalfloss in like 10 years, I still hear "He's up on the f'in roof!"

[@DeformedConscience]

Thank you for not having ads inserted every 90 seconds! It really helps continuity!

Not the biggest Mega Man fan, but I really liked the Dr Wily Theme 20:12 and especially the accordion. Reminds me of the typical high tempo music you would find in arcade SHMUPs at the time, like Raiden.

[@nalicompleteworks]

Well, a happy new year to you too, Banjo Man. ...are you playing a banjo with a *bow* in Heat Man? Good grief. :D The variety of instruments you throw around is always impressive, but it's that dedication to finding novel solutions to produce the exact soundscape you want that really pushes your work over the top. Love all the cool parallax editing, too.

[@williammayberry5793]

This was awesome, my only problem was that some of the recording equipment on Metal man seemed to have caught a CRT or something in the background that really stands out when played at higher volumes.
