I feel like this is perfect timing to cover a newer Touhou track since Touhou 17 has been announced. Hype! Jo'on and Shion's Theme is really special, I love the way it sounds reckless yet calm at certain parts, perfectly representing both of the Yorigami sisters, so I did my best to definitely implement it in this cover.
I honestly expected this song to be a walk in the park, yet I underestimated it once again. I dunno where that idea came from but I really wanted to make it an overall longer song with a lot of variety between sections and I'm really happy with the way it turned out! I hope you guys enjoy my take on this awesome final boss theme. Thanks for watching! ^^
There's also a brief reference to Immortal Smoke! (and a super tricky to spot Kaguya's theme hidden in the harmonies to the point that it doesn't count anymore lol) I don't know why I went all out with Imperishable Night references here haha!

More songs on my *Touhou Album!* 🎵 *LISTEN NOW:* ampl.ink/Q0mkZ Hey, guys! Touhou 17 announced, hype! Perfect timing to cover a newer Touhou track! Here's my take on the sick theme of the two Yorigami sisters. First of all I'd like to thank you guys for your patience. I didn't expect this song to be so time consuming, matter of fact I expected it to be an easy one to do (I was wrong lol). I wanted push this arrangement to it's full potential by using every single section the original has to offer, changing things up and yet staying true to the original (including the crowd applause lol). Thanks for watching! I hope you enjoy and Tell me what you think! 👋 Next week's video is gonna be a special one. Stay tuned! 😁

[@michaelfett3]

Love you man! Every last bit of your music is keeping me from suicide! True happiness and joy :D

What's the weird things about yorigami sisters Joon a rich human which reimu is very obsessed about her money no wonder why no one is visiting hakurei shrine cause they don't want to tip the donation box guess where are the money goes to reimu precisely only stealing money from the residents of gensokyo Yukari: wait are you telling me if i poison some money and throw it at reimu she won't dodge deliberately Ran: it's a interesting theory but it could work Shion covered by talisman all her body acting like jiangxi like yoshika probably could become best friends and doing anything joon asked
