Thanks The_Kusabi_ , ValoFilthc3 and necrogenesis1981 for requesting this song!
I loved this character and always used it when you get the chance to do so. I think this is the first game I "revisit", but I couldn't help it, some people requested it and particularly The_Kusabi_ was pretty insistant on the GameFAQs board haha! But its okay I love the song and I really enjoyed arranging it. Hope I didn't ruin it hehe

you sir, have taken one of the most epic tunes from one of the most epic games of all times and turned it into something even better! hats off to you!

[@Chayraz2]

Lucca: "Hey, Magus, why did you invade Guardia in 600 A.D?" *Japanese version.* Magus: "It was to strengthen my odds of defeating Lavos. By the time you arrived, I had all that I needed to avenge my sister and put that parasite down for good." *English version.* Magus: "Teh luz." :3

[@Numinor31]

luz?...

After all these years, this is still the best Magus theme cover out there. No unnecessary frills and BS to put your spin on it. Just the beautiful theme made metal. Superb work.

[@Janos23]

That's awesome :D. Magus' theme is one of the most memorable in a game full of memorable music, and you played it amazingly. Kudos to you dude ^^

[@ferdk16]

@RosenRakuen Thank you!! :) No I don't have originals yet, but I will eventually release some originals on this channel in the future ^_^

[@s4tchm0j0n3s]

"The black wind begins to blow....." This gave me chills. Awesome arrangement. Awesome playing. Just awesome.

[@Verdegrand]

the dark wind howls strongly with this one.

[@chocobo92]

Just discovered your videos today, you've really inspired me to try and get back to my hobby of guitar. This was a brilliant cover - I also would totally love to learn how you get such a great, clear sound in the end. Good work!

[@ferdk16]

I understand. I don't use iTunes myself either, but the other platform (Loudr) doesn't sell individual tracks from within an album. I'm sorry but at the moment I don't have any other means of publishing this song.

[@ferdk16]

@SchlossRitter Thanks!! Yes of course I've heard them!! I love their versions :) Wow you think my versions are near the quality of his? thank you!! but I don't really think so haha, he's the king of them all! :)

[@drakesylvan]

Definitely need to put out an album man, I'd buy two copies just to support this.

[@ferdk16]

@supershigi Thank you so much Laura!! :) I'm glad you liked it ^_^

[@ferdk16]

@drakesylvan Thanks for the support, I really appreciate it! I plan to compose and upload my own music to this channel some time in the future, these covers will be free as they should :)

[@SplitableInfinitive]

Oh..... my lord. My mouth legitimately dropped open. This is amazing! I have a very special bond with this game and I have to say this does absolute justice to Magus. The biggest bad ass EVER. Great job!!!

[@MoonsideResident]

Definitely the best cover of this song I've heard. Excellent job!

[@sandman19822]

you hit some beautiful notes there at the start, perfect, not overdone, just right.

[@stefanhorvatits5646]

This made my day. Thank you for this awesome version of this classic!

[@RoseFielden]

Awesome i love this track when i first played Chrono Trigger and heard this i instantly fell in love with it

[@necrogenesis1981]

You sir are officially my hero. Amazing work as always!

[@Zythrone]

The best thing about Magus' Theme is if he he is in the party during the Queen Zeal boss fight he is so badass that he replaces the boss music with his own theme.

[@Firstone33]

Ah never forgot magus theme always good listening to it especially now!. If only nomura knew you do this.

[@TheRemster]

Your video editing is reaching higher levels of awesome.

[@DapperWoof]

Wow, great cover of this! The metal really makes it sound powerful.

[@sirstricker3738]

For me your version of Battle with Magus is the best remake I never heard until now ;)

[@Ahluk1]

I'm glad to see your videos are finally getting more views, keep at it!

[@satanfuksgodintheass]

This was fuckin awesome, love what you did at the end with the clean guitars, absoultely genius.

[@unclefestus]

DUDE! That is awesome! Makes me want to pick my guitar back up and learn this song.

[@Jackcabbit]

Thankfully the DS version entirely took out the loading time issue, plus it added even more stuff.

[@kdizzleg6]

That was great!!! Brought back memories. Square needs to remake this

[@kchorro2012]

OMG This is so awesome!! Downloading it right now! (Nice Nightwish poster you have there)

[@Frothenbath1]

First, awesome cover. I'm absolutely blown away and thrilled to hear this song beautifully played out by you. Your passion sends chills down my spine, really. Second, NIGHTWIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIISH. Third, favorited and made incredible and subscribing. I hope that your love for music will be shared with everyone for many, many, many videos and songs to come. I may be speaking preemptively as I haven't yet gone through your channel, but any original pieces from you? :3

[@Myc3li3rix_Th3_Fractal]

@Puremindgames don't worry you can download the super nintendo emulator and the chrono trigger ROM , play it is a great game!

[@KingsUndone]

Awesome break down.

[@JapasLord]

So amazing!!! Congrats!

[@ferdk16]

on iTunes you can buy individual tracks if I'm not mistaken

[@ashrakkrazlegan6114]

This cover should have 20 million views

[@OttotheOtter97]

Nice job man! I love the intro, then it just goes into heavy :) Super cool :D

[@Folian87]

That was nice man. Got a song suggestion for ya: The Decisive Battle from FFV, maybe you can make it a double where it fades into The Last Battle from the same game?

[@kevinsayahofficial]

This is brilliant! You definitely earned my subscription!

[@FrioneeeL]

awesome version dude! nice ending

[@Darkproducer]

Ohhhh... so THIS is what epic sounds like.

[@bukyalfredo]

Buenísimo juego, hace una semana que lo empeze apenas, que buen cover te echaste (Y)!

[@RobLBUTM]

beautiful.

[@Aurachan787]

Holy crap. Amazing.

[@Fenrir190]

I was so gonna ask if you guys where selling this and would have gladly paid for it. Then I saw the link. Thanks guys!

[@Ghost0744]

One of the greatest fucking games ever made. Jesus I love the memories of Super Nintendo. Beat this game so many times. Still got my original copy of the Snes version :). Sadly had to sell my Earthbound a year ago.

[@RueLazzaro]

There was actually a really short OVA featuring Nu and Spekkio. Crono and the team show up as cameo's in the background -- I didn't particularly care for it though. In fact: watch?v=2fsryis_2B0

[@P4D3LL05]

i love the ending

[@Natural11001001]

Great job! Loved it.

[@pinksock1337]

You should re-do this, but spice it up with some guitar solos. And boy, I know you can. (Huge fan over here hehe)

[@Guardiandown895]

This remix was amazing. Great job!

[@ferdk16]

@mySnowflakes91 hehe, I got bored of it and I think people just want to see the cover right away, so I dropped it =P You're the first to notice ;)

[@ferdk16]

@Ajaxxx15 Thank you my friend! :)

[@ChronoPhoenix]

i'd love Jeff Walker's bass effect on Corporal Jigsore Quandry on this song.

[@cabanaho]

More chrono trigger songs! Rubo theme and corridor of time?

[@DragonMasterXZ]

Magnifique.

[@fenix_hero]

My god dude this was epic as hell, very very VERY nice job on this one. If I use this in a video and link to your channel would that be alright with you?

[@wickedvahndyl]

That was awesome!

[@srakin9528]

Very well played. Also, Nightwish rocks.

[@yanorochi]

The black wind begins to blow... Fine, give me your best shot. IF YOU ARE PREPARED FOR THE VOID! Dude... you're the fucking man.

[@cbillini]

AMAZING JOB!! Keep it up!!!!

[@ChronoPhoenix]

ok after this second video you won my subscription.

[@erichcrowley8603]

that is uber-fuking-cool man i got chills

[@MiniTapp]

Holy fuck, this was brilliant. Well done.

[@Riffa22]

Sounds just like the black mages :-) love it

[@freyfrey08]

Fuck yeah \m/

[@2145665558]

Awesomely beautiful. (fan tastic)

[@chexloxd]

Excelente son muy buenos, simplemente me encanto

[@MaxStrike1988]

This is Epic!

[@CarterG4Y]

Great job!

[@sirstricker3738]

Just too epic

[@Puremindgames]

awesome, for some reason I wanna play Chrono Trigger... but I can't because I don't have a PS that can play copied games any more. hope we get it when they start releasing US imports on PSN.

[@rodrigomaximoml]

So fucking good, man... Congratz

[@marvvvey]

the best of the best!

[@yamiakechi]

Too much epicness.... I cant handle it :,)

[@ferdk16]

Not really, the PSX re-release of the game had some anime-style cutscenes added to it (made by Akira Toriyama, as you can tell by the obvious Dragon Ball Z resemblance hehe). Aside from those, the game is pretty much the same as the SNES version (only with awful loading times due to being a CD).

[@hikkiwastaken]

That was epic!

[@hamolechon]

Epic boss fight, epic song. Best game ever!!
