Ancient Hero ~ The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker (OC Remix)

[@katevp.6612]

Through action, a man becomes a Hero Through death, a Hero becomes a Legend Through time, a Legend becomes a Myth And by learning from the Myth, a man takes action

[@Kjuio]

So let us continue!

[@carbful]

Plot of OOT and WW

[@fjoergyn]

underrated comment, nice.

[@retrohero8622]

Also Majora’s mask and Link becoming the Hero’s shade

12 years later and it's still my favorite zelda remix

[@chiribaya8553]

I thought it was me Good avatar choice lol

[@A_Degenerate_with_Glasses]

21 years later now, this remix was released on... November 29, 2003. Gosh, I feel like an Ancient Hero now, has it been that long?

[@moviegametime3891]

I normally don't like remixes but I this one is special. It has a powerful feeling. The first time I listened to it many years ago I fell in love with it and today I'm still feeling that passion. It truly shows what Zelda is all about.

[@Denis-zo6qo]

Same here. If you don’t already know, maybe you try the ballad of the Windfish remake, it’s really powerful as well and Transports the emotions of the original really well.

[@alyxxpratt678]

I completely agree. It really makes me think of Hyrule and the hero that comes with it

[@tauabn]

hey brother.. i fell u... i keep comming back to this song, from time to time... its so well writen, its so beautifull..... hope u doing well, i'm drunk af atm lol... cheers from brazil

[@jmcieslak0]

This takes me back to a time when I didn't hate my life

[@kimandreandersen4605]

jmcieslak0 Ey, dont say that

[@calabs2]

Pretty edgy m8

[@JavainMuert]

jmcieslak0 think of all that people who never heard this song. How could you hate your life after that?

[@TheLordpeanuts]

jmcieslak0 didn't ask

[@xxdespairityxx174]

TheLordpeanuts No one told you to answer

[@xeroxoid7967]

I haven't heard this in so long and much like the Zelda series itself.. this is Timeless

[@l-boi8173]

This just reminds me of how every 3D Zelda since Ocarina has been hated at launch by fans, but eventually ended up getting the love it deserved. Majora's Mask Wind Waker Twilight Princess (my favourite) Skyward Sword I feel especially bad for Skyward. It achieved something the Kinect and PS Move could only hope to achieve. And it's hated for that very reason. Was it perfect? No. But man, it gave it the old college try. And it succeeded on so many levels. For the ''start'' of the franchise story wise, it did really good. If there's a silver lining, it will eventually be a lot of people's favourite Zelda. As soon as the new one comes out and people hate it for no reason. Just reinforces the biggest problem with the Zelda community. They hate change.

[@kardasdragon123]

I totally agree. I loved Skyward, and I honestly don't see why people hate it.

[@Jacob-wu7jp]

Kaizerghidorah Xi Personally I hated it for its controls, wii stick made it unplayable for me(they should just make all games compatible with a controller)

[@__-nt2wh]

Flaming Shiruken They would have to redesign the entire game, bosses, the engine, heck, even the way the game would work.

[@granearl2438]

flashdrive Now put that kind of stuff you saw in skyward in a zelda as large as skyrim, and that's what's supposed to be the next zelda. Only time will tell if they achieved that feat.

[@TheSupergamer300Show]

Flaming Shiruken but it is playable unlike other "motion" consoles

[@katwilliams8548]

The fact that I still come back to this song after six years... So. Good!

[@HPmcDoogle]

2:50 My whole body just lights up with goosebumps during the French horn buildup.

[@darkpitgamers7769]

The part where the legend begins🗡🛡

[@joueusedelacave7798]

This remix is a legend...

[@alexs.2731]

Joueuse de la Cave I guess you can say it’s Legendary(lol)

[@ResurrectedElvenMonk]

May it reside on the internet until the end of time.

[@jorgancrath2842]

I have never heard any piece of music capture the wonder and adventure of the legend of zelda series quite like this. Purely incredible. Thank you for this utter work of beauty.

[@TwoTeenGaming]

Perfect for a Zelda movie's trailer

[@zeshpee4429]

This song is so emotional

[@cleoniarec6840]

The most epic Zelda Song that was EVER made! I heard it many many years ago and I recently had it in my mind but couldn't find it until today.. I almost cried. It's an incredible piece of music. Love it so much

[@Zilkenian_Davenport]

I actually discovered this song back in 2010. It's been a long time, but it never lost its own magic.

[@leemcgavinjoey]

Gosh this was on my first ever iPod when I was younger

[@faydo2787]

+Lee McGavin Me too, me too. It was in 2011 for me.

[@tugayturkylmaz2200]

It's time to remember this song again. And this notification will do this :)

[@kingcrimson293]

Time to listen to this again

[@dragonrand100audiobook]

Also mine. I still have the iPod and somehow it still works if it's in a dock.

[@romeoalpha1116]

This makes me feel old. 2009? It feels like yesterday. Genuinely amazing though.

[@KeyboardSoda]

Seriously one of my favorite songs ever.. been a long time since I've listened to it, and I may or may not be crying from nostalgia and the pure rush of emotions that this piece gives me... :,)

[@matthewcompton8901]

Every time for me.

[@unusuallynormal231]

The music of Zelda has created a world all it's own. It's the part of the games I cherish the most, and what defines the experience for me. I play that 25th anniversary orchestrated cd in my car, and I feel awesome doing it.

[@flamevtx]

Legendary...i feel as if timelessness gets suddenly around me and involves me in an undescribably immortal feeling. Thumb up if you feel the same.

[@vaelararagi496]

I'm so glad this showed up in my recommended again.

[@AeonSolari]

Anyone else get major Groosebumps from this?

[@Poshnoodles]

I teared up. Music is one the most emotion driven forms of media, after all.

[@sisterunderstandable1717]

When I was reading this I said juicebumps bc I'm so hungry and thirsty ¯\_( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)_/¯

[@audreel1273]

I see what you did there ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

[@MHShah17]

The real question is how anyone wouldn't

[@coletrain5603]

just did

[@Chase12083]

I can hear the theme of many of the Links from throughout the series... It's amazing.. Even though WW's Link isn't of the same bloodline as the others, they're still connected... That's pretty epic. No wonder I love Zelda so much.

[@stationearthxo]

I cry everytime

[@irishboi505]

I love how Zelda games create such brilliant and joyful memories for all who play, I don't care how far technology progresses this will always be in my mind...

[@dragonrand100audiobook]

Years later and this remains one of my favourite Zelda remixes.

[@ThatLadinPlaid]

To me, no other franchise has such beautiful music.

[@humzahahmad2818]

This song gave me nostalgia for something I never experienced

[@ShadOwFax2287]

This song is sooo good, it just sums up the whole of the Zelda franchise which is indeed the most beautiful, Epic and genius game franchise in gaming history.

[@BraeBraeLicious]

Listening to it for years... and still Toon Link is one of my absolute favourite characters to cosplay... shall my love for this franchise never be lapsing

[@smmoom1212]

i think i've been listening to this song since i first heard it back in 2010 XD feels like a different time!

[@mikauanaki4866]

How do you cosplay someone like Toon Link? Do you have to wear a big head or something? I can see someone doing maybe normal adult Link, he has normal proportions. Toon link has a head as big as his body!

[@BraeBraeLicious]

You don't have to wear a big head, his arms are also pretty long for his body and do I have long arms? No. It doesn't care if your body proportions are not "perfect" for a character, if a cosplay would be perfect the person needs to be polygons or totally flat like paper :D

[@RosaLopez-jr9kg]

This is absolutley my favorite Zelda song. Thank you. This is so beautiful i thought it was actually in Wind Waker as is.

[@Poshnoodles]

God when the oboe comes in for the solo. Tears man.

[@jb512137]

Courage need not be remembered...for it is never truly forgotten.

[@m3o0othi]

Probably the best thing I've heard, EVER!

[@newmaster95]

The first time I heard this remix i just sat there and listened, nothing else. By the time it was over I nearly cried. This mix is a master piece, a true work of art!

[@smb-c3po]

31 people shouldn't have done that. 31 people have met with a terrible fate, haven't they?

[@mitchellalexander9162]

oh lord... Randomly on an unrelated note im absolutely terrified to name Link in Wind Waker BEN because of the water thats everywhere in that game...

[@smb-c3po]

***** At least Slendy doesn't have a perverted fandom of furries like Freddy.

[@smb-c3po]

***** I have Majora's Mask 3D and I was tempted to name him BEN, but went with CapriSun like I always do.

[@smb-c3po]

***** I would actually just play the game normally like I am.

[@smb-c3po]

DragonKoal The funny thing is I just opened my Ganondorf amiibo for the first time and Wisp turned into Ganon just as I was told.

[@jesselasalle5104]

I literally got goosebumps from this remix. No remix in a very long time has ever done that. Very well done!

[@lannaivoury1302]

41 people got pots broken by Link and are exacting revenge but little do they know, they upset the Cucoos in doing so

[@VindictiveShadowWolf]

I can imagine this song playing as you've just sailed through a dark and devastating storm, the waves crashing around you, tossing you about. For a moment, you're looking death in the face as the waves crash down upon your ship, and you're surrounded by darkness..But you just keep going with all your strength. Then its over. Your sails are ripped and torn, but your boat still manages to sail through the now calmed waves, and you see the midday sun, its rays brightening the horizon, where home is

[@NdieCity]

It's so weird how this game was virtually hated when it came out due to the art style but once the HD version came out, every one cried tears of joy. (I know I did.)

[@Justjaythanks]

i never got to play wind waker. wish i could. if i had some new gamecube cords. and foudn the gamecube version. than i could play

[@mikauanaki4866]

legoguy cjman A few years back I tried to buy Wind Waker. It was going to cost me $50 dollars because of how rare it was.

[@Justjaythanks]

yeah.. personally i would just screw that and buy the wii u version..... that is if i had a wii u

[@Najmille]

I got the collector edition on gamecube and the game is great but if you dont have any of the consoles just get an emulator on Android or pc ?

[@mikauanaki4866]

Camille Lawliet An emulator? You mean *the* emulator? Dolphin is the only Wii/GC emulator. If I'm wrong, still it is the best emulator in existence. I'm talking any console, Dolphin is the most well-optimized and easy to use.

[@WolfynSeraphim]

This is the best Zelda remix I've heard so far. Those 7 people who clicked dislike either had their mouse slip, or were just being trolls.

[@Nackols]

This is so good! I love it!

[@ShariqAnsari]

I'm the guy that wrote this remix and I enjoy a good dubstep tune every once in a while. I think that it's important to not be snobby about music. People have different tastes and I don't really think it's right to just categorize dubstep as "noise." Electronic genres of music (like dubstep) are not as easy to produce or as mindless to arrange in as you may think. I think that "true" LoZ fans are the ones who know that Koji's tunes have a wonderful core that shines through in any genre. :)

[@kingkrysen]

I will forever love the Legend of Zelda series with all my heart forever and ever 💚💯🔥😍

[@GBL337]

Zelda OoT was the first game I ever finished. The original Zelda was the first game I ever picked up on my own. Zelda's in my blood and this song speaks to that legacy that just transcends generations. Thanks, FireoftheNight, for doing great justice for one of the greatest video game series of all time.

[@PrincesseMachaonMidnafi]

[@thesteamguy6171]

Remember hearing this thanks to the tf2 version

[@EF9001stormspotter]

This is a masterpiece of reorchestration. Praise aside, this version of "Legendary Hero" makes me think of an epic training montage spread out over a decade or so (and not comical in any way). Three cheers to DarkeSword! And the 11 evil forces of Ganon need to re-think their opinions a little, methinks.

[@j.rohmann3199]

I did an arrangement of this myself. This is just even more amazing. Now I feel like shit 😂

[@cinnamonrollsinpasas4890]

someone can remember this music was made for a project called Z or something like that? was an animation of link. Telling us the story of the hero, you know... the 3 goddesses creating the earth, water, and nature( 0:01 - 1:50) Then at that moment link shows up with a cloack in a place where the master sword rests ( 1:51 ) then link takes off the cloack and aproches to the the master sword and pick it up ( 2:24 ) the pillars of the sages arround the master sword starts lighting up and trails of light, surround link and teleported him to a castle ( 2:50 ) and when link aproached to the entrance ( 3:10 ) we could see ganondorf was looking for him ( 3:18 ) and then starts the fight sword with sword ( 3:30 ), as always, link wins the battle, after he pierced his stomach with the sword ( 3:56) we can see how ganondorf is losing his triforce power and in the link´s hand we can see the ganon´s triforce piece ( 3:57 - 4:07 ) and to finish we see the same lights as on the pillars and teleports link to the triforce chamber and thats the end. ( 4:08 - 4:28)

[@jf-villemure]
