TheMegas Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 If you're not a fan of lyrics, you'll find 2 tracks on our album to your liking. Unfortunately, those tracks clock in at 0:18 and 0:10 apiece. 'Tis a shame that the other 35 minutes aren't for you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leliel Posted April 1, 2008 Share Posted April 1, 2008 I rarely feel the need to chime in on a song (q.v.: post count) but yeah, this is _extremely_ well done. I've never heard lyrics fit into a Remix as well as you guys have managed here. Eyeing that merch page now. Kudos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antanaraxia Posted April 23, 2008 Share Posted April 23, 2008 To take such a familiar song and to have the stones to put lyrics to it, bravo. It just flowed and not once did I forget that I was listening to a VG song. Great mixture, I'm gonna check out the rest of your stuff.

Tziufu Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 I just got that "I am my own biggest fan" joke. Classic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elrinth Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 I love this song I'm not to fond over his voice, but it's ten times better than I sing so it's all great... The lyrics are really great at times and at other times, not as good. - My fav part is: "Do you know, what it's like to be built this way with only the power to push others away" The drumworks in the song could definatly be improved. The pace of it sometimes goes from slow to fast at a not so brilliant place. As for the song as a whole: Highly recommended, and I just love it. Their metal man remix also rocks "Welcome to my level, my name is metal man, I throw metal blades from my metal hands. I dance around with style and finess, better watch out for these blades or you'll end up headless" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marmiduke Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 This is awesome. it definitely succeeds in creating a blaring rock rendition of a Mega Man classic, and also developing a lot of personality at the same time through the lyrics. I always find sympathetic perspectives of villians really interesting, so the mix (and the album) was always destined to be right up my alley. While I wish the sound and the vocals could have been richer, what's here does the job well. It plateaus in intensity quite early, which isn't exactly a problem, especially since it is capped off with the terrific accompanied spoken section. It provides a nice ending and incorporates the build structure that the majority of the mix lacked. I would say the end section is crucial in allowing this mix to be more than just well-produced rock with some conceptual garnish. I'm pleased that it's much better than that, as I'm sure a lot of people are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bjnartowt Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 To me: I don't know how this ReMix achieves "being so emo that it's not emo", but it does. Every time I hear it, I want to dance and laugh at the same time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
42 Posted December 27, 2009 Share Posted December 27, 2009 As a semi-direct consequence of this, I went out and got the rest of the album and haven't regretted it. But this (and the rest) are truly awesome songs. What I love is how they greatly expanded the robot masters' personalities, turning Airman into a pained being bent on destruction because of how his design curses him to live a life of forced solitude. This is one of those mixes whose depth of enjoyment isn't just limited to mere musical arrangement but to the philosophical expansion of a personality of a character, in this case Airman from MM2. This piece comes so highly recommended. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rahmoon Posted October 18, 2010 Share Posted October 18, 2010 I heard the acoustic version of this...and I have to say, these guys are the real deal. I personally like the acoustic version better, just because it conveys airman's sadness remarkably well, but you really can't go wrong with either of these works. Good job, Megas! I hope you guys make an acoustic version of each album you release, the vocal work is really solid and I love the harmonies you guys throw down.

Jaybell Posted February 9, 2011 Share Posted February 9, 2011 I hadn't listened to any OC ReMixes for ages, and just this evening I've been perusing random ones, and I stumbled back upon this one which I used to listen to all the time, and it still sends chills down my spine. So: yeah it's pretty awesome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crulex Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 Absolutely love the Megas ReMixes and work in general. The lyrics fit Air Man so well, puns and all. This type of rocking arrangement is great for this source and the overall arrangement for this ReMix is damn near perfect. I've listened to both versions of this, but either way, Air Man gets justice with this song. Awesome stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
