The point of the song isn't in the composition of a lovely ballad - it's a representaiton, it's a reflection of madness, of playing FF6 for hours, and hours, and hours - the screams, the wall of sound, is the frustration, the effects of sleep deprivation. It's not a song as much as it is an auditory experience of something a lot of us have shared. Of course, I could be nuts, but that's how I see it.

Well, I suppose that's one way to look at it. I see it as just swapping out some voices and making some very minor changes to the original piece. It's not really a remix per-se. I agree, it sounds "good", but not so much because it's a fantastic remix as because the original was so good.

For what it is and what it was meant to be, I think it's a decent piece overall. I also think the author has done much, much better material (I'm a huge fan of his Bionic Commando remix).

You know, the one thing I really love about this remix is it does everything a remix is supposed to do IMHO. It nails the original dead on so there's no mistaking it, and then it runs with the original tune into a direction completely of its own, playing off of the original, while still being different. Bravo.
