Why has this not been posted? Well, at least not that a search could tell. Anyway. Now it has been. "Now learned men, who use the pen, have wrote your praises high... ♫"

Have a Killiburn Brae to go with that. I can never tell if it's a sexist or feminist song

Akly, s'far as style goes there's quite a bit of stuff similar on OCRemix... and some of the more chiptune stuff things roaming around the net probably falls right in line with that, even if it doesn't fit OCR's submission standards. Nothing right off the top of my head, though.

E: Speaking of requests, though, anyone know of stuff along the lines of this?

Rudimental and some other folks.

Pretty awesome video, and song, not sure why but it seems the more "commercial" music is starting to improve in quality, or is it just with greater number of artists there's a higher chance there's something likeable in there?

Emotional sword fight between two rivals on a cliff in the middle of a storming sea.

Given Dave Brubeck's passing, time for some jazz.

Blue Rondo à la Turk by the Dave Brubeck Quartet. Gaming music geeks might find some of this strangely familiar...

Take Five, because why not.

Oh man really?

Well that's a bummer, seeing how his stuff is some of the rare jazz that I really really enjoy (mostly because it's light and carefree, plus I haven't been looking into jazz all that much).

And speaking of dead people, have some Gwydion Pendderwen, the only druid to ever die in a car crash.

And it's no, nay, never!
No nay never no more
And I'll play the wild rover,
No never no more

man, you just reminded me of this band

that's a fucking irish rebel song

badass

[Pnx]

Well if you're talking about rebellion songs, this is a classic, though I know it's annoyed a lot of people in the past.

Oh god no... that's one of my most hated songs of all time.  Most repetitive and musically bland song I've ever heard in my life, with an unprecedented ability to get stuck in my head for entire months.  It was overplayed on the radio for a couple years when I was in my mid-teens.  I also don't get any sense of rebelliousness from it.  Never says anything about standing for or against anything.  Just about getting knocked down (presumably by all that drinking) and then getting up again... over and over.  Strikes me as more of a party song than a rebellion song.  I've heard the band considers itself anarchist, but that song permanently turned me away from ever exploring that claim.

Anyway... I was dropping by to leave this here.  One of the most epic songs I know.  Would be a blast to get some of my Rock Band playing friends together who have never heard it and sing it for them, but not much epic concept album metal is on Rock Band, unfortunately.

So, this is pretty cool. Anyone know of something good similar to it?

Check out the Touhou rearrange thread, the creator of the Touhou game composes some awesome midi style tracks, and there's "remixes" in every style imaginable by fan groups. (all the stuff I linked was songs and their cover versions from the single game which I have played a lot, and there are ~13 games in the series).

Earthbound - Fourside/Moonside

[Cthulhu]

Crossover time, this thread seems to get more attention than the metal thread and this song needs more attention.  Everything about this song, from the pacing, to the vocals, to the instrumentation, to the art deco poster, is perfect.

[Frumple]

I'm not entirely sure what the blue christ I'm listening to, but it's disturbingly pleasing. And entirely too... cute.

Can only guess the style's a bit more common in... other places. Or something. I've actually heard similar vocals (from parts of it, anyway -- some of the male chorus bits I've heard very close lyrics in... christmas music, I think.) in western stuff, but...

Anyway, time to listen to it for the sixth sequential time. I'll burn out... eventually.

E: Amusing part is that track apparently powered a fleet destroying superweapon. Folks involved were kinda', uh. WTFing. A little.
