No matter what song or game is being covered, you have to instantly stop everything when purpleschala drops a vid and go watch it :)

oh gosh Jimmy you give me too much credit ahhh thank you!!!!

well deserved credit lol ;)

[@pesky2119]

Ok this is definitely unironically the best rendition of fodlan winds on the piano I have seen yet. The song just works so well on the piano for some reason

[@RadiantMantra]

unironically?

why unironically?

Last year on this day an important personal battle began... Long story short, I’m nearing victory now, and this song and it’s many covers has helped. This specific cover is helping me through the final phase, and I’m loving every second

ugh seriously I'm not joking when I say you're piano goals

[@DettolObsessed]

I watched so many video of this piece... you're literally one of THE few people that actually play this timed correctly :/ Good job.

[@Frenzyshark]

@@purpleschala The practice paid off. You're super special amazing!

[@Exalt21]

You are one of the best piano players I’ve seen on KZbin. My sisters and I were listening to your three houses covers and we were in shock at how good you are. I and my younger sister almost teared up

[@purpleschala]

thank you so much! Have fun with it, it's such a great song!

[@brendanwelch7496]

Phenomenal! Any chance you can do “Shackled Wolves” from the Cindered Shadows DLC? I absolutely love that theme!

[@kodym8652]

Leaving your incredible piano playing out of the equation, your ability to capture the heart of these pieces is masterful. Every important beat, memorable chord and “texture?” Is captured remarkably well. Thank you for your arrangements.

[@purpleschala]

This is seriously the greatest compliment ever and truly means so much!! 😭 thank you!!! Arranging and recording these themes is really a labor of love for me as I love the games and OSTs so much and it really means a lot that you can hear that communicated as well. Thank you, thank you so much again for listening!!! ❤️❤️❤️

I just started playing this game after buying it three years ago and the first thing I thought when I was in Fódlan Woods in that first battle wasn't "Oh, great song!"

[@purpleschala]

aww thank you so much!!!

[@FrankyM_Piano]

Oh, THAT one! I don't play Fire Emblem but I'm obsessed with this piece for the dumbest reason: it's one of the tracks that play in Tetris 99's FE theme (and I play A LOT of that... like really). I can't believe it took me so long to find your cover but I'm loving it, you truly did the piece justice despite everything that's going on and the tricky rhythm. Well done!

[@purpleschala]

LMAOOOOOOO!!! I had no idea Tetris 99 had FE themes omg!!! that's hilarious!! Thanks so much Face hahaha, this is one of my favorite themes in the game!!

[@FrankyM_Piano]

@@purpleschala Yeah! Tetris 99 tends to get promotional themes for most of the major Switch exclusive games (FE3H, Animal Crossing, Xenoblade...) as well as a few historic Nintendo franchises such as Zelda or Mario. It's just cosmetic but I kinda liked the look of the FE3H theme, and especially the music! I was so happy to find covers on your channel. This piece here is the first track that plays at the start of online battles, then it switches to "Tearing through heaven" when you get to the top 50, and finally (fittingly enough I guess) "The Apex of the World" for the final top 10 shootout. I was so happy to find out you had covered all three of them!

aww thanks dude. Do you like the OST better the more you played the game, or is it about the same?

[@reguba3534]

I think I was thrown off because I wasn't expecting the different vibe that I got from this OST, but I now definitely appreciate it more for what it is. I never like letting nostalgia affect my judgement but it happens, haha

[@estebangomezllata9642]
