Aerosithius

Well, here we go. I've floated around OCR for at least half a decade now and have sometimes wondered when this day would come. I've finally hit upon a piece so amazing, I can't resist praising it publicly, so I've finally made an account to get my word out. Thanks for that, Jake. This is a truly fantastic work, expertly channeling all the operatic drama of the original with the face-melting power of a rock ballad. I've been a fan of Virt for a while now but even so, I'm amazed that he's created something so moving and so professionally done. The piano work is touching, the choruses are charged with intensity and not a single note is out of place! This is truly a work for the ages; Freddy Mercury would have been proud! On that note, I was just as impressed with the vocals! I saw earlier that a couple people were disappointed with the vocals and couldn't help but think he sounded like Weird Al. I definitely hear the resemblance, but having been an Al fan since childhood, the resemblance doesn't bother me much. Speaking more to Tommy's vocal strength, I suppose a little more power might have been nice at times but his voice already comes off as reminiscent of a couple power metal bands I could name, so I don't think more is necessary. There's a lot of varied sections in the piece but nonetheless, I think his voice manages to fit in remarkably well throughout it! Great job to both of you! I'll be listening to this constantly for a good long while!
