I'M REALLY COOL OK.
1. Piano Fantasy- William Joseph (
link)
PLEASE IGNORE THE ESPN GUYS AT THE BEGINNING. This was the best quality video I could find of the song so :P
Plus watching this on the TV was how I discovered the song. And this song is basically what got me started making this fanmix.
I think Piano really fits Yeager. So there are a lot of tracks on this that are predominantly piano.
Anyway, I kind of love this track to death. Piano and Violin are my two favorite instruments and they combine so seamlessly and beautifully in this. SO YEAH.
2. Kooza Dance- whoever composes the music for Cirque du Soleil derp(
link)
I tried to find a video of the actual performance in Kooza that went with this track but it alludes me. This act was the skeleton cabaret dance type thing. It was 8 kinds of awesome and the Skeleton King/Grim Reaper/whatever was like the most pimping iteration of that ever.
CLICK ME AND ALSO METhe whole dark and decadent feel of the act/track seemed appropriate. Plus flashy suits are totally Yeager's thing lmao.
3. Satisfy- Takeharu Ishimoto/Ayuko Tanaka (
link)
BASICALLY WHAT OTHER PEOPLE THINK OF YEAGER.
Also I totally don't interpret the 4th line in the creepiest way possible. No, not at all.
4. Parade- Susumu Hirasawa (
link)
OK SO I AM A LOSER AND WAS LIKE
"Luke finds Susumu Hirasawa creepy.
She also finds Yeager creepy.
...
I MUST PUT A HIRASAWA TRACK ON THE FANMIX!!"
I would try to justify this choice with fitting lyrics but they kind of don't make any sense. In true Hirasawa fashion.
YOU MAY VIEW THEM ANYWAY.
5. An Immoral Feast- Motoi Sakuraba/Hibiki Aoyama (
link)
I THINK THE REASON FOR THIS IS OBVIOUS. It plays at the Manor of the Wicked which is... Yeager's house. So yeah.
6. Howling- Abingdon Boy School (
link)
I don't have much to say about this besides that I really like this opening. Again I sort of just chose based on sound, those I suppose some of the lyrics are rather fitting.
7. For the Reunion- Nobuo Uematsu (
link)
Another piano piece. It has a different mood than the first one, and if you're familiar with the movie then you'll recall this is the scene where Kadaj uh "meets" with Rufus Shinra.
So that got me imagining a crossover cause I'm Lame. Yuri would be Cloud, the Don would be Rufus, Raven and Harry would be Reno and Rude, Yeager, Gauche, and Droite would be Kadaj, Yazoo, and Loz. And Alexei would be Sephiroth, cause he totally has the same bangs. IT IS PERFECT.
/shot
8. Imaginary- Evanescence (
link)
I'm not too sure on this one but I like imagining Yeager making paper flowers with Gauche and Droite. IT IS AN ADORABLE MENTAL IMAGE.
9. Shelly de Killer~ The Whim of a Murderous Gentleman- Akemi Kimura (
link)
Look at the name of the track do I really need to say anything more?
10. Red Soil- Dir en Grey (
link)
I felt like I need at least one incredibly violent sounding track on the fanmix. This is that track. I like the name, which I'm guessing is refering to like, ground that is so thickly covered in blood it is red. YEAH.
11. Jinn's Curse- Nobuo Uematsu (
link)
It just sounds sneaky. Yeager is sneaky, TEHREFORE YEAH. I can't actually remember when this track plays as it's been forever since I played FF3.
12. The World Stolen by a Finger- Motoi Sakuraba/Hibiki Aoyama (
link)
I'm always going to associate Yeager with Zaude more than Alexei because you fought Yeager in the pretty underwater part of Zaude.
13. Einsamkeit (Prussia Version)- Hiroki Yasumoto (
link)
I just had to include a hetalia song because I know
amberspike_sama loves it so. I like both versions of Einsamkeit but I like this one... more better. The higher pitch just seemed more fitting. ALSO IDK WHAT THE VIDEO IS THIS IS LITERALLY THE ONLY VIDEO I COULD FIND OF THE PRUSSIA VERSION. Please ignore the video.
14. 'She'- Chikayo Fukuda (
link)
I love this song like you don't even know. I have no real justification for this other than 'she' could totally be Casey if you want it to.
I have not played .hack//GU. YEAH.
15. Aria of the Soul- Shoji Meguro (
link)
MOAR ELEGANT PIANO TRACKS.
Also I made the mistake of imagining Yeager with Igor's nose and now I cannot unsee it.
16. Ode to Joy- Ludwig Van Beethoven (
link)
ENDING THE FANMIX WITH A DRAMATIC SONG~
Plus it's the only song in german that I have in my library so DERP.
THAT BE ALL~
