wow!

It's very rare I post something on ocremix, since my text skills are about the same level as the high of a sandwich in my stomach with some ketchup and a rotten... eh... Let's forget that! The point is that I really enjoy this remix! Though the vocals are a bit hard to hear at times.

Great remix. Love the lyrics and the vocals, some really snazzy instrumentation in there, and just overall a highly enjoyable mix! Certainly saving one of the best of 2007 for the end of an already great year on OCR.

The minute your voice kicked in I couldn't help but think of the Devil May Cry 3 theme. Your voice sounds so much like the younger singer in that song it's almost unbelievable. I suggest you give "Devils Never Cry" a listen so you can say whether I'm crazy or not.

This is an excellent mix. The lyrics are perfect for the source material and your voice is awesome. I just wish my friends could appreciate the song without laughing at the mythical lyrics, but it's their loss, not mine.

Keep it up!

Wow!

I'm diggin this tune. I had to send it to this girl I know because she's into MUDding, and she really appreciated it. The lyrics tell a story from beginning to end, perfect for a song about an RPG game. I practically put myself in the Hero's shoes. Nice Job man.

This is hands down the best vocal remix out there. I bet the guys over at OverLooked ReMiX are pretty proud of being the first site to post this song. :P

It's got everything a vocal mix should have (although in my opinion the backrub thing at the end kinda ruins the epic mood of the song).

I sooo wish that I was the one who had created this remix.
That's it, I quit!

Ya know, it's extremely rare I bother posting here. But for this song, I had to come out of hiding and actually give an opinion. I have to say, this song is quite possibly...the single-best thing I've heard come from OverClocked ReMix in some time. It's an effective collage of a few of the in-game themes (title, forest, cavern, etc.) with some slick lyrics and a nice, solid beat that never lets up. This song actually bumped me up out of my depression, it's so good. And that says quite a lot, considering I rarely bother fighting off my depression.

Anyway... It's a really awesome song and definately worth downloading. I'll make sure to rate this song 5/5 on OCReMix Radio when I get a chance. Thanks, Trenthian, for making a song good enough to put me in a great mood! :D This is so totally going on my MP3 player...

On the John-o-meter, I'm pretty sure this is the best ReMix we have, with up to 300% more John than other mixes, including some of my own. If you listen to it on the john at Long John Silver's, you may in fact OD from the sheer Johnitude."
Is it terrible that EMFB and I are considering naming a future son "Hans Evan Sean Jean Ian-Juan St.John" and nicknaming him "Jack"? And yes, this would require that he have a rap star herald with him everywhere he went.

I am quite honored sir, both that you choose to use the track as your sword against the foulest minions of depression, but also that you want to carry your sword, like the warrior of legend everywhere you go.

I hate the vocals. They're too processed. It sounds like your running the vocals through something, more than likely multiple times.He is running it through some effects board and he's processing it so it sounds a little electronic-tinged, then he's layering that multiple times so it sounds like ass.

Also as far as the recorder solo hes layering keyboards under it so its a little muddy.

I understand the comment about the vocals being a bit fuzzy, but I really like this. It's very catchy and just good fun to listen to.

I'm generally wary of mixes with vocals, but this is perfect. The lyrics are great, the instrumentation, the singing - as someone else mentioned previously, this is an instant classic. The mix embodies the spirit of OCR. I really like how the different themes are woven together, especially at 3:01. Makes me smile every time.

Trenthian and Wolfe, awesome mix, great job!!
