Team Fortress 2 - Rocket Jump Waltz Orchestra (Extended 6 minutes)

[@federicofontana1467]

I didn't expect so much success on this video, BUT I want to clarify again, that I DID NOT MADE THE COVER. All credits go to The Synthetic Orchestra (kzbin.info/www/bejne/rn25gHaNr71ml5I), I just made the version longer and added the montage with the wallpapers. That said, I want to thank Rick May, died today for medical problems one of which was COVID-19, for voicing our favorite Soldier. Go support the original artists of the cover, and let's all remember this man, together. "You were good son, Real good... maybe even The Best."

"Who was Rick May?" Rick May...? Rick May was a soldier, the bravest soldier anyone knew. He did many things. Voiced many people. He was great, not just great, one of the best. Voicing Soldier, Andross, Peppy, and many others. Though many may not know who he was, he was a great man. He was known by many as Soldier, and he was the best Soldier. A disease took his life that fateful day, and we knew, a great loss happened. However, he will live on, live on in those who he inspired, those who he voiced. That's who Rick May was. The bravest, the greatest Soldier. "You were good son, real good; maybe even the best." Goodbye Rick May, we shall always remember you.
