When you gangsta soooo hard that the lyrics start playing in your head as the song plays

[@aterranrepublicgrunt9169]

For those who want to sing along but can't remember all the lyrics: As the drum roll started on that day Heard a hundred miles away A million shells were fired And the green fields turned to grey The bombardment lasted all day long Yet the forts were standing strong Heavily defended Now the trap's been sprung and the battle has begun Descend into darkness 303 days below the sun Fields of Verdun, and the battle has begun Nowhere to run, father and son Fall one by one under the gun Thy will be done (thy will be done), and the judgement has begun Nowhere to run, father and son Fall one by one, fields of Verdun Though a million shells have scarred the land No one has the upper hand From the ground above to trenches Where the soldiers make their stand As the trenches slowly turn to mud And then quickly start to flood Death awaits in every corner As they die in the mud, fill the trenches with blood Descend into darkness 303 days below the sun Fields of Verdun, and the battle has begun Nowhere to run, father and son Fall one by one under the gun Thy will be done (thy will be done), and the judgement has begun Nowhere to run, father and son Fall one by one, fields of Verdun Fields of execution turned to wasteland from the grass Thou shalt go no further it was said, "They shall not pass!" The spirit of resistance and the madness of the war So go ahead, face the lead, join the dead Though you die where you lie, never asking why Descend into darkness 303 days below the sun Fields of Verdun, and the battle has begun Nowhere to run, father and son Fall one by one under the gun Thy will be done (thy will be done), and the judgement has begun Nowhere to run, father and son Fall one by one, fields of Verdun

Finally. A piano cover that actually sounds like the song.

meh the things he threw in were kinda unnecessary

[@LightningNoob17]

@@ThroughTheGatesOfHell but damn do they sound good

[@jdhed.mcpack6947]

​@@ThroughTheGatesOfHellnah, I disagree. Although it doesn't change much harmonically, in fact I think that it just followed the same tonality of the original song, the busy and forceful movements of the baseline and the usage of open fifths, or power chords compensates for the lack of distortion or percussion. And so far, the treble line, or in this cade the right hand did remain rather faithful to the original recording except for that one part near the final chorus where the chorus' melody is moved up an octave without any accompaniment

[@SharpWind]

some parts are a bit impossible, but the composition is amazing!

[@Dunmerdog]

Rosseau could do it I reckon

[@Chrischi3TutorialLPs]

Honestly i wish Nintendo would use this as a Champion theme, theyd finally have a good one again.

Hey great arrangement! Question, in the process of making this did you happen to make the relevant sheet music for it? I'd love to be able to try and play (at least some version) of it but I haven't been able to find piano sheet music for Fields of Verdun even for arrangements not as awesome as yours.

I personally think it would work a lot better if it's played slower almost as if it were bass, but everyone has his own interpretation.
