[@kalcheus]

Free Bird is always fun for rhythm games because it lulls you in the first half and then cranks it up to 11. Great job

[@kalcheus]

Actually, Great job feels like an understatement, you absolutely smoked it.

[@xano3189]

@@AhmedKathiri personally refried beans are better

[@tuttiman55]

No rythm game will ever be able make free bird as daunting as guitar hero 2 did with the five options asking if you were sure you wanted to play free bird, it might not be the hardest free bird in a rythm game but it certainly makes you nervous as all hell for it

[@roboform100]

I love how the song goes "Lord knows, I can't change, Lord help me, I can't change, Lord, I can't change" around 4:30, and after that the whole scene changes to hell, visually and gameplay wise. Really drives the "you done fucked up now" message home.

[@josteventon2246]

Well I’m a 63 year old granny but I love BS and do ok normally on expert level. Downloaded this song as it’s my era and was doing ok…..until half way through. Couldn’t stop laughing when it heated up, brain cells are defo dying off😂

[@raidmastervr]

The solo part of this song (4:57) is one of the best Beat Saber experiences ever

[@AntoineMB2]

In terms of vanilla, agreed

[@whitekasl2309]

@@AntoineMB2 vanilla eh? Where’s your perfect go?

[@AntoineMB2]

@@whitekasl2309 please explain what you're first question and what "perfect go" mean. Do you mean FC?

[@miecaf]

More like the worst, every time I try to beat my arms and wrists literally die But I guess it is the best in terms of "holy shit I did not expect this wtf is going on this is so intense"

[@AntoineMB2]

@@miecaf in terms of pattern and in terms of how fun is it to play when you can play it, it is the best. In terms of not being able to play, can't say that would be good

[@phoenixDR34MR]

I swear the arc notes and the chain/slinky blocks were 100% added in to prep players SPECIFICALLY for THIS SONG. This is legit probably the best mapped song in the whole game, and those arc blocks are MADE for the sliding notes on the guitar, and the chain/slinky blocks are PERFECT for the strummed guitar notes! 💋👌🏻

[@shephardokeeffe3265]

I like how even the stage is bopping along during the solo 😂

[@MatthewTheWanderer]

This song is intense! After numerous attempts, I finally completed Free Bird on Expert yesterday!

[@mikekwarner]

For the first half I was thinking "What is Otter doing messing about on Expert" ... then the second half came and I understood 😅

[@MoneyIsSilver]

One of the harder songs to get through at expert for sure. First half is pretty easy, but that solo is relentless.

[@NoahYoudontneedtoknowmyl-kt3vc]

you were probably so scared for the 5 minute guitar solo part 😂

[@terriblegamer76]

The section at 5:20 makes me fail everytime. I've done it on practice at 100% speed from there but never in the actual song. Fair play.

[@flibber123]

This gives new meaning to the phrase "Play Free Bird!"

[@spinninglink]

I don't think non-players understand how tiring beat saber is. good job!

[@clansome]

You're playing Gary Rossington's slide guitar on your right hand almost exclusively. (I'm only 2 mins in - Can't wait to see what happens when Allen Collins starts)! EDIT Yup Switched hands initially then gave Allen Collins' solo on your right hand with Rossington's rhythm going to you left. A track that defined my teen years !! Only shame was that it faded out 10 seconds too early. The level designer was brilliant even giving you very small "rests" and as ever our @OtterWorldy did it justice. A level with just dots and no arrows would have sufficed imo.

[@chaddiusmaximus69]

You looked genuinely so happy and carefree doing this, I can just sense the playful personality through the screen. The ways in which you were moving your body just radiate playfulness, carelessness but in a good way and just complete over joyousness in general, which I wish I could have. You are genuinely exactly my kind of personality in a girl, but seeing as I’m saying this here probably reveals why I haven’t met someone like that yet.

[@vbscript2]

Getting an ~1,100 combo AND a 900+ combo in the same song is absolutely insane... Nicely done.

[@slicksonrevolver9618]

This is another great way to introduce new generations to the wonderful music of Lynyrd Skynyrd… And the right number three all-time greatest guitar solo… Written by Mr. Larkin Allen Collins

[@PieOfEpicness]

Looks like a fun but EXHAUSTING song. Can't wait to try it lol

[@shannonrave9112]

It’s very fun but the solo kicks ur ass after ur done😂

[@B-902]

The Guitar Hero flash backs are real from this song lol

[@agentshillbot]

Incredible! How does she do it? Probably the best beat map yet from beat games!

[@npmallmail]

BS is much easier when you get to play to real tunefull music, rather than the horrible noise BS passes as music! Oh right.. WOW, impressive solo combo! I'm off to play it (but not on Expert level!)

[@LukaSolncev]

It's just wonderful, watching your videos on this game, I bought Oculus Quest 2 for myself. The game replaced fitness for me, 1 hour of play burns 700 kcal.

[@The-EJ-Factor]

I died seven minutes and a half into the song on expert. That felt painful 😢

[@ac8074]

Exactly where I keep dying! After 7:40 it's just impossible for me... for now!

[@chrisdickerson3786]

Now you playing the Good Music keep it going PLEASE!

[@GryphonRonas]

Have you seen her play Bohemian Rhapsody? It's a beautiful video and an incredible performance

[@ukktor]

Beat Saber does Dad Rock. I just came here to see how you felt at the end of playing Free Bird. Arms falling off? That looks about right. Plus, you did it in boots! You need a score bonus just for that.

[@goattea9080]

You did fantastic on this! I love when Free Bird gets added to these music games. I failed so hard at this. Put it on no fail to get to experience it and I was laughing hysterically at how crazy it got. I hope I get this down someday but still I had a lot of fun with it.

[@MrMattMagoo]

That was bad ass Otter!! Some killer combos! Happy Christmas and a Merry New Year to you! 😊

[@layol692k7]

bout damn time beat games released some real rock music

[@AlwaysStreams]

Excellent video. True story, I played this song for the first time last night - discovered I might have asthma 😅

[@Mandis13]

Holy freakin' workout! Way to handle bizness on one of the rock classics!

[@ac8074]

I CANNOT get past the 7:45 mark on Expert and it is KILLING ME! Great job!

[@SamxWorldo]

Same it’s so hard for me this honestly just inspired me tho lol😭

[@maxipes]

Those combos... just wow 😳😳

[@geoffowen7627]

Awesome, I normally fail at 4:53, just as it's getting going. You nailed it first try fantastic Have an otterly fantastic Xmas. 👍👍👍🎄🎄🎄🎄🎁🎁🎁🎁

[@The_Dark_One784]

One of the greatest songs ever. Another amazing video Otter. Never a dull moment

[@CriminalJellyTTV]

That quickly went from "Ok OK" to "Oh NONONO" LOL Well done!! Many entertains!!

[@kcg795]

Just passed this one today on Expert. Might record it in mixed reality in the next day or so, but I'll probably keep failing it. My best runs seem to be when I'm NOT recording.

[@Ekzou17]

I discovered your channel today (happy new year 2024 by the way, best wishes) and I must admit that I am in awe of so much talent! I've already tried beat saber and it's really not easy, so congratulations!

[@taylorbertrim7625]

I picked up a Quest 3 and Beat Sabre two days ago. It's a lot of fun, I can almost beat Freebird on hard... I used to play all the Guitar Heroes and Beatstar.

[@Spot67124]

That was one of the most impressive things I’ve ever seen 😂

[@ExtremeOdyssey]

watch an expert plus

[@BeatsUniversalOfficial]

00:56 Great stuff. Salute

[@Th3Shrike]

I sight read this song on expert plus after I bought it, the guitar solo was uh, an experience

[@solangreymane1556]

lol can totally tell that you're ZONKED at the end of the song! Well done!

[@sagetx]

Haven't played in a while. First time seeing the multiple block stacks and the tracers between blocks. Gonna have to hop back in

[@Runescope]

Effin Amazing! That is a workout for sure!

[@MalpasDan]

Holy shit this video just sold me on the whole rock mixtape

[@Grubnar]

If there ever was a song with a "good beat", this is it!

[@person4119]

I love everything about this “PLAY FREE BIRD!!”

[@CtrlOptDel]

The “CHCK” sound from the game just made me realise how awesome it’d be to see a military unit do a drill to Free Bird. Probably need to be special forces to survive the solo.

[@JimMW1956]

WOW! Great job! Truly a classic. Can't wait to try it on easy probably though

[@resetreboot]

First time ever I see a 1000+ combo. Wow!

[@HarveyTAS]

Love this song, but I can not get through the solo part on expert. I don't have the rhythm to do the rapid parts especially when the walls come.

[@dm11933dda]

As someone that is just picked up this song on the expert. Well done. You nailed it.

[@Sand_2]

I beat this on Expert+ and I can confirm beat saber mappers were on crack while mapping this song.

[@chrisasdfghj]

This is awesome! Super nice work as always!!! I just managed to clear it with a measley C score! The Export+ level is SO much fun as well but I'm miles away from clearing that one

[@spidermonkeynr1]

That seems to be mapped very well. Awsome job again

[@OtterWorldly]

Yeah I was pleasantly surprised! I'm usually not a fan of the mapping on official maps, but they did a great job on this one.

[@spidermonkeynr1]

@@OtterWorldly i 100% agree with you on this. And i bought the pack only for this song the last few minutes was so awsome.

[@TheRarehunter84]

Otter you're Amazing! You nailed Freebird.

[@TheInspector1962]

That was AWESOME!!

[@MoneyIsSilver]

5:18 - hardest part of the whole solo

[@timterry6496]

9 mins of otter playing beat saber yes please

[@dejaeviz]

Girl comes in all Buff. You workout ? nah, ..... i beat saber. LOL !!

[@maeltv5115]

I still can't finish this song after ten tries xD I'm always stuck one minute from the end... And you do this on your first attempt omg, greatly impressed!!!

[@feldargamedev]

So awesome. I was smiling the entire time! You rock!

[@Fawstah]

in heels?! girl! what a flex!

[@fantsang8534]

WOW. Round a bout the six or seven minute mark, you lose yourself and get in the zone. Amazing!

[@BirdbrainedPhoenix]

Now that was impressive! Amazing job!

[@a.true.artist]

I'm in love with you so much now.. I can play that on guitar but I'd swope that any day just to be there when you do this . Acually Your dancing in the background the hole time is more impressive than the game you play... you can't buy cool or even learn it.. ya born with it... and you probly done even no you are.. but you are.. I dance the same but if I'm alone . And listening to mgk.. no need for alcohol.. ... ps . Don't ever change....lol

[@maureenlarsen961]

Amazing first attempt! It took me three to complete the level. It is bonkers, but so much fun!

[@KenOtwell]

Love the dancing!

[@fearlesstryhard1316]

Ive been practicing hard and getting better idk how in the world you got this good when freebird throws so many suprise inverse notes at you 🎉

[@DavidMartin-sw3wx]

Cardio leveled up!

[@robotadventures]

that just made my new years resolution... wow.

[@DFreyser]

I dont think Ive seen anyone get every single hit on that intense part ever it is so crazy when youre doing it they're flying at like mach 10

[@tomwalton2284]

Too cool, thanks for sharing

[@Elkaygee320]

HOLY CR*P! What a joy to watch!

[@Demonamic777]

Ahh it's the fade out version, I want the one that has the actual finish on it. It feels so anti-climatic without it. I haven't been able to beat it just yeah that last minute solo stretch is real hard, you miss one and you're entire rhythm goes off and you fail fast.

[@batsarecoming3463]

I was just playing this earlier on expert mode and I kept dying really close to the end so I was watching people beat it

[@user_16309]

Bravo!

[@cYNIXEXPERIENCe]

I just tried this one myself yesterday. Need to film the run now.

[@quandumphone]

That was kick ass, well done!

[@Finofinissimo]

you rock, woman. omg

[@BokuWaHikikomori]

My god, my brother and I attempted this on just Hard and it worked us up a good workout, haha! This makes me already feel pumped to try (and fail) again. c:

[@jdlessl]

Well, now I know what I'll be doing tonight.

[@sonar357]

If they ever did a Star Wars hallway fight scene to Free Bird this would be the prototype

[@paulmurray7524]

My first attempt on Expert....I only missed 149 notes 😂😂😂, it gets a bit crazy!! good job 🦦🌍🌟
