This track was my pick! Really special song, very near and dear to my heart. Also REALLY HARD! One of the toughest tracks I’ve put together in a while. I think that’s simply because I’m trying to do proper service to the vocals. It can be intimidating when you’re working with largely synthetic instruments to try to create a track that doesn’t sound “cheap” coupled with an authentic singing voice. The percussion here in particular took a while to put together, and just to add the human element, I dubbed my own guitar playing pretty deep into the background. (I’m a beginner, so I didn’t want it to take the auditory spotlight here) Between you and me, I did the vast majority of this video the night before last night… from like 11 pm to 5 am. Really really REALLY wanted to have this out on Sunday like my schedule plans for, but Final Cut Pro has developed a glitch where it sometimes create green squares on certain frames of the screen, like for no reason. It’s really, really annoying. But that gave me a chance to clean up a few other things.
It’s really nice when you’re having a shitty day and you look on KZbin to find out that folks are understanding of your situation.
First time doing a vocal track for the channel and I wanted to make a good first impression. Crush40 and All Ends FTW. This one goes out to anyone who’s struggling to make a tough decision in their life.
Thanks for dropping in. Next up, more Kirby! Something more in-line with my usual content.

When it hits the solo and you briefly hear Knight of the wind, NICE

[@LightMetaS]

Good catch!

[@iancomtois9832]

I love how this and Knight of the Wind refute each other line by line

[@LightMetaS]

This... kind of blew my mind when I thought about it. "With me" says "You Know," and at one point, Knight of the Wind says "I know." Was that intentional by the songwriters?

[@TehRoastGod]

@@LightMetaS That was completely intentional. Knight of the Wind is Sonic's response to Merlina's version of With Me. Crush 40's With Me is Sonic expanding on that point. Both songs were written with this in mind. The poetic beauty of this game is unparalleled, unfortunately we'll never get another Sonic game with this quality of storytelling ever again. Not with 2010 Sonic Team...

[@HyperShan3]

It's rare that I come across a cover or a remix of With Me, one of my favourite Sonic Vocal tracks of all time. You did a fantastic job remixing this, I can still feel the chills after it's done!

[@symbioticsorrows3001]

Those church organs at 2:18 are just the coolest. This was already a sick mix. But that just puts it a level above

[@Parapsyche]

Here before this video even has a title. And GOD THIS HITS ALL THE RIGHT NOTES. As a die-hard fan of SatBK and the original With Me, this is such a unique and epic take - and finally, a good fucking remix besides the OG and Crush 40 versions! I love it, dude. From the Knight of the Wind/Live Life motifs to the combined vocals at the end, it's just amazing. Feels more sorrowful than the original, which kinda fits the context depending on the point of view. Also, I'm a DECENT singer, I think. Just hit me up if you want me to try and give something a shot!

[@Young_Xehanort]

The story and the music and everything is beautiful. My memories said that to me. Best flashbacks

[@reddwanjahir6364]

Honestly the Story book series was actually pretty fun. I mean sure they have flaws but I still loved them. Also the story telling was much much much better in those games then what we get now with stuff like forces or lost world for instance. Like Sonic felt like Sonic in games like black knight sa2 heroes etc. Anyhow this rendition is so good. I love it to bits.

[@scorpion40k]

If they were to port one of them over to the Switch I hope it's Black Knight

[@SRUFUS3D]

Glad Sonic is getting some coverage on this channel. The music in this series is God like.

[@LightMetaS]

KZbin gives auto-response suggestions to comments. Most of the time I feel its better to personalize it, but the pre-generated response this time was "Couldn't agree more." And that's true. I couldn't.

[@ROBDEWAND]

One of the best in the sonic series in terms of music

[@LightMetaS]

Agreed.

[@etrianregigigas1761]

This is done beautifully! I really hope they bring the game back on the Switch or a future console, it really is an underrated gem!

[@LightMetaS]

Thank you for the comment! Looking over some of the footage, it definitely has a pretty strong charm to it.

[@SamJohnnyVoices]

This is literally my favorite video game of all time. I don't care what people think, I think it's a work of art.

[@afanisthedolphin]

I know I'm 2 years late, but I couldn't live without telling you this is the best thing ever, of all time. Just as a gmv this easily the best one I've seen, your cuts are always on point with the music and fit with the current lyrics (like a whole montage of Sonic daring to fight his enemies when "DARE TO FIGHT" keeps blaring over and over). You managed to take actual gameplay and make it look awesome! Plus some transitions like the sword swings or Arthur going from 2d cut scene to 3d were really really smooth. But it's not just an GMV, it's also the best goddamn remix ever of the best goddamn song ever. You change the song so much yet stay so faithful, it's crazy. You make it sound so much more final than the original, by toning down the guitar and using a lot more orchestral instruments. Then, you also have those slower moments, where you have somehow taken corruption as a concept and transitioned it to music. I swear, I can feel Melina's entire twist in the start of the song. That's insane! And then you have that happy moment in the song where she speaks, only for it to immediately snap you back to reality. It's beautiful, it actually made me tear up. Then that last part with the lyrics overlapping, man I can't describe the ecstacy and finality. Genuinely this is my favorite video on this platform, period. I've watched it and listened to it countless times, it's a staple of my Playlist. Thank you for creating this so, so much.

[@gaIIow]

Got this game for my 10th birthday - I'm now 23 years old and this remix got recommended to me. It made me shed a tear :)

[@scouter8207]

I have a lot of nostalgia with Black knight, and this remix makes me very happy.

[@Parapsyche]

You and me both, buddy.

[@Sultanachan123]

You guys and me too. Infact it's the only sonic game i have nostalgia for. Even if my 8 year old self got filtered by king Arthur's last encounter :lol:

[@SlashCraftJack]

It's even better when you realize there are violin bits from His World in the first verse.

[@excalibursonic1925]

This game is my heart and soul of the Sonic franchise; it’s what made me a fan of Sonic and his series in the first place, mostly cause of the quote he said at the end, which was very wise for a teenager. With Me is among my top 5 favorite Sonic final boss soundtracks in the entire series. Hearing this remix of such a great song, it brings back memories, so thank you. Because of this game, Sonic has told the greatest life lesson we all should learn from: Live Life to the fullest in the time we have.

[@delinquenter]

*Yes!* Put some *respect* on Sonic and the Black Knight. This series is a burning trainwreck, but some of these are hidden gems. T'was a stellar video. Well done.

As a Sonic fan, I thank you for this wonderful remix. Haven't really found that many remixes of this song, so I'm happy there's a new one.

Maybe the cymbals could be a bit quieter at some parts, but other than that, this is good, great, awesome, outstanding, amazing! Good job, on this, Light MetaS.

[@StainedRevenant]

As one of the biggest fans of this monumentally underrated gem of a game, this song just made my year. Merlina has always been one of my favorite characters of the franchise, and this spectacular cover does her justice in more ways than one. The only thing that could have elevated it even higher would have been if she said one of her lines after she donned the moniker of Queen of the Underworld. Words cannot describe how incredible this work of art is: I only hope it gets all the views and attention it deserves.

[@LightMetaS]

Thank you for the incredibly kind words. I'm very glad you stumbled upon my remix.

This is one of my favorite games and this song is one of my favorite true final boss themes. I also think Merlina is a great antagonist as her goal, while misguided, is something anyone would want. An eternal age of prosperity and happiness. Honestly..... she's kind of a better done Xehanort in that regard.
