FFVIII - Don't Be Afraid - Remake #50

[@nonsense021]

"Squall, you still remember?" "The R1 is the trigger." "Pull it just as you strike." "Same for the Renzokuken!"

[@suddenstorm8]

“T-Rexaur!!! Squall, be careful! Sometimes it's better to run!”

[@JNieto2511]

Lion's Heart

[@elisanchez5480]

***** "They have Shiva!?"

[@Cloudcolin]

That BGM should be "Force Your Way" when they fight Ifrit.

[@KoopaXross]

More like pull it as the actual slash effect appears from the sword strike happening a second before.

[@qr5393]

I'm 8 years in the future from when this was posted and im playing the remaster of ff8 and this is still the greatest rendition of Dont Be Afraid on youtube. Truly a masterpiece.

[@ChthonicRemains]

Looking back, FFVIII had one of the most epic normal battle theme songs. This is a timeless masterpiece.

[@DamianAhmadi]

I always thought this song would bring me the latest news,

[@bobmcbob49]

I prefer for my news to be broadcasted by Shuyin.

[@philippkaufmann1371]

cant be unheard you bitch :(

[@SolidMGSnake]

Lol thats hilarious dude.

[@theprophet1915]

BREAKING NEWS: "Hello, I'm Squall Leonhart." "And I'm Quistis Trepe. There is a gigantic T-Rexaur outside of Balamb Garden! We advise all students to remain calm and stay in your rooms as Squall and I kick some ass!!"

[@MikoYotsuya292]

Its missing Quistis' whip sound.... :P

[@MajorShepard]

*Whatish*

[@eddiegness]

Also the "pukpuk" from Zell's punches

[@Solidude]

And Irvine's "BANG"

[@Vincent-kb8lq]

+AkemiHomura93 Also the thonk of Selphie's nunchuks. ... No? Just me? Aw...

[@KaigaiProject]

Selphie, the best third wheel in FF8

[@NightlyJin]

I've seen tons of remixes an re-orchestras. But this tops em all! Reason being is 1. You stay true to the piece yet still manage to make it sound original. 2. You replaced the artificial instruments with a full band and orchestra. And 3. Music like this puts a smile on people's faces no matter how many times they hear it. Regular musicians make regular music. But only true ARTISTS can re create a song into a true masterpiece! Excellent work. Well done.

[@kirasaji]

"T-Rexaur!!! Squall, be careful! Sometimes it's better to run! Use the L1 and R1 buttons to escape!"

[@isaacogni]

+Kirasaji Nokamura Equip sleep ST Attack

[@zstechbuzz6172]

+Isaac Ognibene i go with blind ST attack, it work most of the time,

[@zstechbuzz6172]

+Kirasaji Nokamura i think its L2 and R2 :D

[@FamilyOnTrip]

+Kirasaji Nokamura cast sleep + blind. Use magic attack. it'll be defeated in no time. :)

[@xxazureangelxx8024]

[@rhoo9460]

0:07 you forget the Quistis' whip..

[@redzmanrazak3196]

[@seyfersnake]

Regardless of who might be in your party, in my head i always hear squal swinging his blade, and Quistis whip

[@josejaviergomizruiz5898]

This made my day.

[@jeremyngpiano]

LOL.

[@thomasadolf5210]

OMG so true :D

[@jerelcermak9698]

Flawless remake. Thank you. This my favorite regular battle music out of the whole final fantasy series and this version can't be topped.

[@DukeRaven]

All of your remixes are getting added to my Awesome FFVIII Remixes playlist for sure! Keep making MOAR!

[@NekoSasoriKirei]

wow, at last something better than the original soundrack, i would engage every monster in the field with this remake XD awesome!

[@Gldmrd]

This song was the thing that fascinated me most in my first play-through as a 10 year old kid. I'd hum the melody to myself and even to my friends to show its greatness :D Even heard it in dreams. And this is the best version ever.

[@loszhor]

Nice, this and Blinded by Light are my favorite FF regular battle themes.

[@DrayxArt]

The comment section seems to be lacking in Water and Water and Water Water

[@AdlezAtnemra]

[@danielef.361]

Thank you so much! ^__^

[@Modukon92]

AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@sandofgaara12345]

Great masterpiece man!!! ^^

[@YorkshireNutte]

If they remake Final Fantasy VIII, you HAVE to be part of the sound team! It would add to the epicness!!

[@FinalFantasyFanatic-ou1wt]

hot damn this song is amazing

[@MXFoX408]

I like this, Very good job.

[@FoxDie85]

I would pay a lot to see this played like live.

[@An-jin]

Still freaking awesome!

[@dennysachs-weltenbauer6320]

Finally a good remix!

[@SuperFunJess]

The whole ff8 soundtrack > any other ff soundtrack.

[@edgarbh01]

CyberGothWannabe FFXII had very good music too! Different composer tho.

[@cannogabang1999]

+Edgar Buenfil And FFT too :) like Trisection :)

[@edgarbh01]

+Quang Thanh Yup. He is the same composer from FFXII and Vagrant Story. I recomend the OST from this last one as well! Cheers :)

[@axelvoss9653]

Um a'scuse, I recently started playing FFVII seriously, start to finish, and I cannot stop humming the soundtrack.

[@taiLs501]

God, you're amazing!

[@renandemelojorge4401]

Sweet

[@guilla5]

Dafuq, I wish if there was ever made a remake of FF8, I hope you collab into making the music, you got a pretty nice ear for it :P

[@yashasvirallabandi9070]

Man I can totally imagine Squall kicking ass while this plays in a remake.

[@soupe2000]

for the remake we'll never ever get it sadly... I played FF7 Remake for my first FF, then I couldn't stand understanding nothing so I made FF7 and it was absolutely AMAZING. So I'm actually playing FF8 and I think it's very cool too but not enough popular to get such a treatment...

[@lyndacrotty875]

perfect remake

[@MsTatakai]

TRIGGER !!! R1 R1 R1 ...!!! OVERKILL! LVL UP! xDD love this bgm

[@behemothokun]

that high pitch tone gives me a headache, except that it's really cool

[@Nelvin931217]

Man, you are good ! I like all the songs. Would be grateful if you could remake trabia garden's theme

[@HyperKadaj]

Can you do a remake of Never Look Back?

[@danielef.361]

Impressive! I hope that square enix will take to do the soundtrack for the next remake of the series

[@Piggy_Piggerson]

Crying tears of joy at how good this sounds :'D FF8 HD remake anybody? *gets shot*

[@lygiahao5310]

nice theme for a battle

[@AspieGamer1986]

Uematsu is the Main Man.

[@MrAsaCat]

Old times... :((

[@BitSymphony]

Thanks! But Mr.Nobuo Uematsu is the man here, i'm just remaking the genius he is :)

[@guymanjoni]

I can still hear Quistis whip cracking at the beginning.

[@Ba1k3n]

Four years late but I think we all can buddy, even if Quistis wasn't in our party at times, we still heard it.

[@roxas1335]

this theme missing something (whipsmack!!!!!) now its complete.

[@TheHorseman1981]

The start of this needs more Zantetsuken

[@AspieGamer1986]

lets not Forget "Yasunori Matsuda" who composed Chrono Trigger & XenoGears as well as the not so likable Chrono Cross.

[@altispinex86]

I can see your a huge fan of Xenogears just by the picture alone

[@timothyjohnson8749]

i officially love you

[@Farid.Benbernou]

Same !.. ;)

[@HollowHiro]

Can i use this song in my videos please

[@Lixeffect]

Where have you been all my life.

[@maidros85]

Although I've gotten used to it, ffX's battle theme pales when compared to this.

[@starryplatinum]

If Squall Leonhart was in Smash 5.

[@dinjay_channel2879]

14.000.605 % agree if they use this for Remaster version, but they should rework the battle sfx too for make it perfect

[@danielef.361]

I have a request: can do something for Maybe I'm a Lion?

[@Solidude]

T-REX !!!!!!!!

[@monsters181]

squire enix hire this guy his music are perfect

[@Solidude]

+Von Ngo not exactly his music :)

[@LordDeBahs]

[@grouch_gaming]

[@Nelvin931217]

"Where i belong"

[@BitSymphony]

[@leeleonhart1592]

[@Sekiria23]
