FF8 Maybe I'm a Lion (30000 Subscribers Special) Music Remake

[@oshkeet]

Always liked the irony in Squall having a thing for lions versus say, wolves. Lone wolves are a popular (if misnamed) trope, but lions only work as well as they do in a *pride* with others.

[@DiegoSouto-fy9su]

Well, in the course of the game he goes from lone wolf to the head of a lion pride. He learns the value of relying and caring about others. Remember the options and speech during the Gardens fight? FFS, he carried Riona halfway across the world on foot. That's some character work right there. A theme that was well carried into FF9 too, Zidane also has that evolution.

[@hypn00s197]

They kept the wolf for Cloud in Advent Children.

[@Darklatinus]

My favourite remake sound of FFVIII, it's the massive epic final battle we've all to go through eheh

[@dforbay]

This is one of the best remakes of this theme I've heard. Every other one has been overpowered by guitars but this one you can hear all the small details that made me fall in love with the original. Great job!

[@ordnaelshideout]

One of my favorite songs in the whole Final Fantasy saga. Awesome remake!

[@VandalHeart26]

I wish FF8 would finally get a proper remake it deserves, underscored with such fantastic music, which gives the amazing original compositions new life! Thank you for this super cool remix!

[@LyntzbartzkyPerez]

The name of this song has always caught my eye. Griever has always been Squall’s idol, the main thing he looks up to. He says lions are known for thier “pride and strength” and he’s constantly chasing this impossible standard to be brave and strong and invincible. The only way he knows how to achieve this standard is to fight, bleed, and be alone, until he meets Rinoa. Thats why he fights Seifer, thats why he can’t back away, he fights to prove himself worthy, to show himself that he is good enough, that he is a lion. Bleeding for the sake of finding worth is a story i know far too well. Thats why Squall is my ultimate comfort character, because I’ve never related to anyone like I’ve related to him. He got me through a lot….

[@rhianlloyd368]

the title caught me too, but in a different way. Growing up, I've always struggled with self confidence. "Maybe I'm a lion" personally to me was "Maybe I CAN do it" throwing all people's view of yourself and capabilities to the wall - and I'm happy to say I did do that :) I guess the impossible standard is the same actually. I love this piece and I love this remake. It's the drums.

[@LyntzbartzkyPerez]

@@rhianlloyd368 i think it all means the same thing. It means that maybe we are all stronger than we think. It’s really incredible all the different ways this story has touched other people’s hearts

[@rhianlloyd368]

@@LyntzbartzkyPerez decided to listen to this again and remembering we're lions

[@rhianlloyd368]

I relate to that view SO MUCH

[@InDzienInTampa]

Squall sure has some good Boss music! ...also, Kimahri has a sick Trance mode!

[@spencertang5155]

Hmm, interesting concept…

[@ZealKingdom]

There's no "maybe," you really ARE a lion for this. Great work.

[@1632_seeker]

Rinoa = Ultimecia theory.

[@wktang76]

This just appeared while I was at work. Never had a full body stunned with this charged ecstatic goosebumps experience before.

[@Octovisuals]

This comment made my day.

[@zuboranaden]

これが一番好きだーーーーー！！ありがとうございます！！

[@mrBagels210]

that moment when you realice maybe im a lion means squall is the real legendary leon

[@mirkogreggs]

Sempre odiate le campane nella musica, sempre adorate quelle in Maybe i'm a lion. Un tocco di inquietudine bellissimo, gran bel pezzo.

[@michellekristolia3758]

Oh my God THIS IS FANTASTIC!! One of my absolute favourite FF8 scores handsdown! 😭 Congrats on 31k also!! You deserve a lot more attention man!!

[@norbertoenrique8340]

We dont need a petition for FF8 remake...we just need to send them this song!!!!

[@kairon156]

Very well done. FF8 doesn't get enough love sometimes. :)

[@gmwng]

I am astounded everytime I hear your work. You never disappoint.

[@bruhat_patra]

Someday this Gem of an RPG will have a remake. The awesome team back then will pass the torch on the new ones to re-create this masterpiece.

[@LyntzbartzkyPerez]

That team can’t be recreated. The perfect remake seems to be something we can only dream of, because I’ve truly lost hope in square enix

[@wakaitsuwamono]

"I shall junction myself unto Griever!"

[@alejandrolopez6626]

Ahahaha 😆😅 i remember the "unto" lol

[@KrogTharr]

"Kurse you!"

[@speccothy]

All I ever wanted was for squall to junction himself into quistis, but noooo.

[@michaelbeale2498]

You. Shall. SUFFER!

FIRST AND MOST EXCITED!!! Finally! UPDATE: OMG!!! It was SO GOOD! I wish I knew enough about music to tell you how much this song kicked ass!

[@squall2339]

One of the best songs of this game congratulations man for this 30k people that we like your work please keep it up

[@DariaGR]

I wish you had this great remake available on spotify 😭

[@ВіталійСурич]

I like this in original, I like your remake... God, I LOVE THIS!

[@natashagayle4785]

My favorite ff game and my favorite music. When the remastered version is released I will be unreachable by phone for sure. . I'll be too busy playing 🤣

[@kayos5692]

Now all we need is the legendary beast to complete it the whole trifecta of the end. Great work. Getting me hyped for the remaster and shadowbringers.

[@x-blades2145]

Ok I now want a Griver super boss in Kingdom Hearts 4 with a theme like this to go with it. Excellent remix of this theme!

[@s-clone8964]

I've been waiting for this one *Yay* After hearing the Dissidia NT remix i was hoping you would put the same depth in the guitar portion but this is definitely more faithful to the original track well done ^.^

[@stephanenguyen8786]

Well, I'm neither a FFVIII lover or its OST ... but what you did on this track is incredible ! :))

[@Syridian]

Keep it up dude. These remakes are God-tier

[@theshinku6931]

I had a lot of hope and anticipation that you'd cover this song! Awesome job!

[@cardinaleze3939]

Agree 😏

[@2Syndras1Cup]

The only song that actually made me go wide eyed and fully focused like :" OH SNAP! SHIT JUST GOT REAL!!! *HYPE* " Poor souls here were hyped about the FF8 Remaster *PepeHands*

[@athanasegilotin1512]

It's Time to RENZOKUKEN !!! FEEL the hype before the remaster édition ;)

[@WaveOfEternity]

Awesome remake of this soundtrack, really nice job!

[@EzekielGoldbergII]

So happy to see more love for FF8. Thank you Enrico.

[@BlairTindall86]

This is beyond amazing! I've been waiting for this one for ages. I do have a couple of suggestions for future remakes: The song "Legendary Beast" from Final Fantasy VIII, which plays when you fight against Griever in the final boss battle. The final boss battle music (also known as "Grand Cross") from Final Fantasy IX where you fight against Necron. It is, without a doubt, one of my favourite pieces of music from the franchise. Keep up the awesome work!

[@Carnivourus]

My favourite song in the game after the stage is set... well now this version of yours is actually topping that. Bloody awesome work

[@Zarryon12]

Ultimecia: this is my BOSS MUSIC Squall: Hilarious...this is MINE! Ultimecia: why is he glowing yellow!? Why is his blade GLOWING WHITE !? Why is their something swirling over it!? Limit Break: LIONHEART!!! Squall: No maybe to it... I AM A LION! *proceeds a 24 hit combo on Ultimecia*

One of my all time favs. Thank you.

[@uwekirschner187]

Damn this is epic. Great Work😎 And Thank you for everything

[@Necrostevo]

I shared this with several people after hearing it. What a great job keeping the original feel but adding that extra bit in on the tempo and the guitar really made this take off for me. Well done.

[@michellekristolia3758]

Also! I would love to see a remake for FF4 boss battle theme in the future, it's SO GOOD and I think you'll make it perfect!!

[@NejiStorm]

Nice job! You should remake Magus theme from Chrono Trigger

[@5daysastranger]

I second this.

[@arctisCircle]

@@5daysastranger I third this

[@edlachowicz7068]

I don't usually join the chorus on this, because the man should make what he wants, but after hearing this one done... yeah, Magus's theme would sound great.

[@kaosknight123able]

Magus final atonement please.

[@Aussieroth7]

... I will pay money for that.

[@phoenixphantasma6253]

I was wondering if I could use your cover of "Maybe I'm A Lion" for a FF8 playthrough? I was going to use the "Roses and Wine" mod to add it to the game. If you don't know what the "Roses and Wine" mod is, it is a mod that allows a player to add custom songs to the game. The song will play, along with the sound effects of the fight. If you could answer as soon as you can, that would be greatly appreciated.
