The Legend of Zelda (NES) - Title Theme (Acoustic Classical Guitar Fingerstyle Cover)

This is my cover of The Legend of Zelda (Title Theme) for NES. You can also hear the "secret sound" in the intro and the save/continue/retry screen/game over theme in the end. The music is composed by Koji Kondo.
Famicom and Nintendo 8 bit Entertainment System (NES) game Faxanadu Password Screen. First I arranged this song for two guitars as a project for school. I liked the result and ended up doing this version with three guitars. Composed by Jun Chiki Chikuma.

[@pigbeners4527]

Insane skill, playing both rhythm and lead at same time. Props man.

[@seancolbur]

+Daniel O'kane It sounds like 2 guitars were recorded. Still amazing skill

[@RonBruce]

There is another guitar. This definitely sounds like he is playing over a recording

[@KurtRombough]

+Bob _ It's good enough that I want to say you're right, but I keep watching the video - and his hands seem legit. He's picking the melody with his thumbnail while strumming. I dunno.

[@JoseLuis-ok7rl]

+Ron Jamal Bruce You're completely wrong, watch again.

[@ItzValid]

Dude, its two recordings... its obvious

[@johnwong9398]

Absolutely phenomenal. Probably the best acoustic version of this song I have heard. The only reason you would dislike this is because you are technically allowed to be wrong.

[@elrojoJazz]

Thank you for playing the TRUE THEME the Right Way!! and Nylon too!

[@JonasLefvert]

+Rion De Rochestia You are welcome!

[@ryanperson6307]

Rion De Rochestia You mean the original theme

[@IsacSalehGuitar]

The bass of that guitar sounds absolutely heavenly! ^^

[@JonasLefvert]

Thank you!

[@jasonjewell6399]

Been playing guitar for 17 years and this is one of the coolest pieces i have ever seen subbed!

[@Darkar512]

How do you pluck the individual strings while strumming? This has me mesmerized.

[@tartanhandbag]

it's called fingerpicking. this guy just does it really discretely with a tight economical right hand so it looks like he's barely doing anything. jammy bastard.

[@raphaelkelly861]

@@tartanhandbag honestly though listening to this I don't know how he does it. If you listen with headphones it sounds like two guitars that are in sync. Regardless, its incredible music.

[@richat1691]

I think its 2 guitars.

[@braderz014]

@@richat1691 nope just the one watch his fret hand

[@richat1691]

No chance.Im watching his plucking hand

[@jackblack9872]

crazy thing is, i'm classical guitarist, and this guy is blowing my mind with his stuff. He's really really really really good, not because of his covers, but this guy covers like no one else on youtube... this guy is sick!!!!!!!!!!!

[@mikeycage1587]

This guy is the G.O.A.T. when it comes to this song on YT. He was the whole reason I wanted to learn it years ago.

[@JonasLefvert]

Thank you very much! :)

[@GabrieleRiso]

Speechless... The guitar gives such a beautiful touch to Zelda's Theme. Classic. :)

[@DownwardThrust]

Amazing man

[@JonasLefvert]

Thanks a lot!

[@richat1691]

What sorcery is this, that has to be 2guitar parts over dubbed over each other! This is insane skill if he is playing rhythm and melody at same time.

[@SomeBody-rm6hf]

I like this guy's style. He wore some kinda shady ass dude robe in his Diablo video, here he wears a green shirt, he wears Hobbit clothes and a ring on a chain for a LOTR song, and some crazy pirate stuff for POTC.

[@sirturtle711]

Gave me chills. Did not expect it to sound so good. Not insulting talent, I have that much respect at least, just didn't know how the guitar would sound.

[@JonasLefvert]

Thank you Ryan!

[@Defenseman61913]

WOw, this is a classic. Love this. Sad to discover that there's no tablature for this.

[@ML-gn9jk]

absolutely incredible!

[@TauntEDSkIIlz]

BEAUTIFUL

[@CarlosHernandez-fp5je]

I love your style. I'm starting guitar i just want to impress my dad with this song. He plays drums i play guitar. You're amazing.

[@YoungTheFish]

Woah, so boom-y, maybe the best acoustic cover of the theme I've seen on youtube

[@JonasLefvert]

+YoungTheFish Wow! Thanks for your beautiful comment :)

[@salvatorevetro1743]

I second that.

[@vadunchee]

This is a beautiful, and clean cover.. just amazing! Keep up the awesome work!

[@takif1317]

I could say this is the best guitar play of the theme ever, omg thanks!!

[@antares1233062]

this is one of those videos that you just know 10 sec in that you'll subscribe :D Nice video :D

[@JonasLefvert]

Justin Miller Thank you! You must like the intro :)

[@antares1233062]

Jonas Lefvert Yeah I like the intro, but I love talent...

[@lakai2305]

You can find some new tabs on my Facebook page (Jonas Lefvert Fanclub) before they will be released on my new homepage. Lion's Pride (WoW), Sweden (Minecraft) and Priscilla's Song (The Witcher 3).

[@benslavich2292]

+Jonas Lefvert Tabs for this? Best version ever! plz tab! I learned your rogue encampment and i jam it all the time :D

[@tonymontana1818]

+Jonas Lefvert why are u using hax and cheats

[@kristinalehmann8185]

i cant find it there do you´ve got any link?

[@timvinck]

Plz make a tab of this!!!! this is awesome! I want to learn it!

[@phillipcarlroberts4640]

this was great seriously one of the best versions ever, however you did not need to throw a bass line over the save/continue bit,it woulda worked without it.

[@damonjohnson8248]

Dude!!!! This is amazing!!

[@mainecannabis7682]

I come back and listen to this again and again for years now

[@JonasLefvert]

Great to hear! :)

[@TherikVanen]

Hi Jonas! You inspired me to choose classical guitar a few months back. I am so addicted to playing, i play every night after work.. sometimes for hours.. the calluses on my finger tips have developed finally and im making real progress! Thank you for the inspiration!

[@JonasLefvert]

[@yungsully4729]

No problem.

[@sharrow44]

You are very talented, and have a great taste of covers. Especially this one, huge Zelda fan. I'm getting this guitar soon, can't wait!

[@tubsesss]

My mind just got blown by your guitar skills. Very, VERY nice! I never thought a rendition like this could be played with a single guitar.

[@rolanaweaver]

i would marry you for the soul purpose of hearing you play guitar every day. sooo good!!!!

[@JonasLefvert]

Rolana Weaver Thank you very much! In my next video will be music from Twilight Princess :)

[@rolanaweaver]

Memories of wen I first played zelda on the nintendo...One of the best covers on guitar played here..😁🤙🤙

[@henryhopkins5261]

Im pretty sure the ledgend of zelda theme is meant to be played on guitar

[@lyianx]

+Henry Hopkins Or Violins.

[@gerolstar5411]

lyianx or flute. But this means nothing. The Zelda theme is good, even if it would played on mayonaise .

[@yulianmantseng6455]

Henry Hopkins

[@ryanspears1986]

Henry Hopkins Guitar and piano are my favorite. Flute is also great.
