Mocha Posted March 30, 2004 Posted March 30, 2004 I could barely get 1/4 through the song before skipping ahead to see if it improved any. It did slightly, once the guitar entered, but otherwise I must be missing something here. Even the piano managed to be annoying. All I can think is that all the great feedback earlier in this thread got my expectations up. Quote
Zaphlin Posted March 30, 2004 Posted March 30, 2004 oh man. so many posts on this song already! I just gotta say you're my hero Star Salzman!!! Quote
bouncerboy15 Posted March 30, 2004 Posted March 30, 2004 Good ReMix. Nice vocals and beat. Star never let's me down with his mixes. 10 thumbs up! Quote
Jonathon Striker Posted March 30, 2004 Posted March 30, 2004 Well, I can't say its bad, because its more of a humorous song than a serious one, but so far I think Mocha and I are the only ones that aren't totally impressed with this song and giving it ridiculous scores. The song is awesome, but it doesn't totally theme to fit. You are using the casting song from megaman, but you are talking about useless strategy guides, and two playes in a game thats only one and crap like that. Sorry for being technical, The song is funny, but at the same time, i don't get it. Quote
ProjectSpam Posted March 30, 2004 Posted March 30, 2004 Well, $^%#. I've been waiting for a remix of this song, and finally we get one that's as amazing as this? Star Salzman is slowly propelling himself up the ranks of my favorite OC Remixers. Wow. The lyrics rock, the music rocks, and the nostalgia factor is off the charts. I really don't know what else to say. Just get it. Quote
bLiNd Posted March 30, 2004 Posted March 30, 2004 we are all good at what we keep practicing right? duh! Star has got his singing down to a science, and it never fails to impress me, and always fais to bore me. This is absolute perfection, and dj P seems to agree. Star you are just plain PIMP And prots guitar thing is pimp too, hes got that down to a science...protricity's signature sound, which i love. Great job on this one Quote
Trenthian Posted March 30, 2004 Posted March 30, 2004 At first I really didnt like this. I thought immediatly that the lack of a low end would drive me nuts, (and it still kinda does.) But overall I really dig the mix. Man, if the kick drum had more oomfh and the bass was thicker, i'd probably say I dig this mix as much as everyone else. Great work though. Quote
Cookiepino Posted March 30, 2004 Posted March 30, 2004 Wow.. Simply amazing. This work absolutely just blows me away. I registered here to praise him.. The Incredible Singing Robot that was linked on the review is also so outstanding! Lyrics are funny, and music is great!! Quote
ElZog Posted March 30, 2004 Posted March 30, 2004 Wow, this is great. Just the whole thing makes me feel happy when i hear it. NICE WORK!!!!!! Quote
TenchuX Posted March 30, 2004 Posted March 30, 2004 Flawless.....this was just simply a masterpeice. This is up there with GameOver's Lil Mac's Confession as the best vocal videogame remix's ever in my opinion. It's so professional, and as good quality wise as some of the big star hits I have heard coming out. Great Job Quote
Al Capwn Posted March 30, 2004 Posted March 30, 2004 I could hear this being played on a radio station..it's that good! Good job big homie Quote
Carrie-san Posted March 31, 2004 Posted March 31, 2004 I've never played a megaman game, and I've never heard this song before, but I can't tell you how amazed I was. This is wonderful. A great rythym with such hilarious [ I laughed,quite hard ] lyrics,sung so well! You have a great voice and a superb sence of sound and style. It's so professional sounding, like something I'd turn on the radio and hear. One of those ones that automatically becomes a big hit and then everybody is playing it and then it gets over played and everyone hates it for awhile,but then it makes a dramatic comeback and is loved forever and always. Certain parts made me think of Sonic games, for some reason totally beyond me. Maybe the chords or something. Anywho, the song, in general, was just... wow. I can't critque certain parts because the only instrument I play is a woodwind , so I can't really go into detail. To be blunt: it rocked. I already adored your other works [namely theincrediblesingingrobot, which i find myself humming constantly now], and I can add this one to the collection. Quote
Agentflit Posted March 31, 2004 Posted March 31, 2004 Awesome!Any lyrics availible? they're right there in the review... Quote
woekitten Posted March 31, 2004 Posted March 31, 2004 So very awesome. Salzman is my hero. I know the lyrics aren't supposed to have much to do with Megaman X specifically, but considering the ambiguous relationship between X and Zero, "I'll be Player One and you be Player Two" is a little awkward. XD Still, it's all in good fun. Yay! Quote
Lord Phoenix Posted March 31, 2004 Posted March 31, 2004 Uhm.....is this some kinda shot at people who play Mega Man games, or just people who buy video game strategy guides? Either way, I don't see the point of using the lyrics for the remix to the ending credits of the first Mega Man X game. The remix itself was truly awesome, especially how the Capcom logo sound was incorporated at the right time. But I'm not sure where you were going with the lyrics, honestly. You gave more serious and thoughtful lyrics, based upon one of the game's characters, even, to the Chrono Trigger mix, so when I saw this one had been released, I was expecting the same. But everyone has their own style, and like I said, the remix itself was good. Any chance of getting pure version of it? Quote
njsykora Posted March 31, 2004 Posted March 31, 2004 You dare to doubt the Star master?! If you've heard his original's with lyrics then you know he's a great singer and produces instant OCR classics. Quote
Scotty B. Posted March 31, 2004 Posted March 31, 2004 No, I'm pretty sure I don't like this song at all. Production value was great, no doubt about that. I just don't think that this particular song was the right one for the given lyrics. That and this song was WAY too popish for my taste. I know some people like this happy-touchy-feely-snuggle-bunny sounding stuff, but I sure don't. To me, the original credit rolling song was all about, well, the end of a long struggle. The beginning solo track sounds rather forlorn to me. This remix clearly does not reflect that. Again, not a bad song by any means, and yes, the guy can sing. It just doesn't float my boat. I believe that there are several other remixes on this site that deserve such acclaim but only got a simple "recommended". One of the good things about this site is that ANY style of music can be submitted and appreciated while not catering to a particular taste. Kudos to the creator for doing something definitely different. It just didn't tickle my fancy. Just my $0.02. Quote
Sockatume Posted March 31, 2004 Posted March 31, 2004 I think it's a pretty neat song... kinda cheesy, but that's part of the appeal. Nothing particularly grand in the composition (although it has a wonderful 8-bit style to it), but more than listenable all the same. Anyone got the full lyrics? Quote
J_Lidar2k51 Posted April 1, 2004 Posted April 1, 2004 Not that what I have to say is anything to add to this discussion, but HOTTNESS! This mix = Supreme Ownage, it will never leave my mp3 player until the end of time. It's easy to see that this mix roxX0rRs, "Just figure it out you dummy." Quote
darkened04 Posted April 1, 2004 Posted April 1, 2004 I signed up so i could write a review for this remix. This is currently my favorite song I have, I've played it back to back already and thats nearly unheard of for me. Amazing Work Star Salzman. Rating: Perfect Everyone download this. Quote
Dash2110 Posted April 1, 2004 Posted April 1, 2004 This is currently my favorite song I have, I've played it back to back already and thats nearly unheard of for me. Same here. I never put songs on repeat, but I found myself listening to this song more than a few times easily the first night I downloaded it. Quote
Ice Dragon Posted April 1, 2004 Posted April 1, 2004 I don't know, the intro lyrics open up the song as amateurish, especially with the repeating of "to you." The music is good, but I'm definitey not sold on the lyrics. I downloaded this when it was released, but didn't listen to it after the first or second time. Now a while after listening to it I look at some reviews to see what other people thought and was trying to understand what people saw. After listening to just the intro I deleted it, then when I saw the reviews I restored it and listened to it all the way, but I'm still not sold on the lyrics. Quote
Spool Posted April 1, 2004 Posted April 1, 2004 awesome song! great lyrics, definately a 10/10. just a week ago I was listening to this MIDI and thinking how cool a remix of it would be, I was going to give it a try but this came and I love it. Star should continue writing songs with lyrics, he has a great talent for it. If you know me you knowq that I spend about 7-15 hours a day listening to remixes and working on my own, I play this song about 5 times a day now, I really like it. Great job star! Vine Whitefire Quote
Vortaka Posted April 2, 2004 Posted April 2, 2004 Alrighty! Wow, now that's a song that put me in a very good mood!!! Yes sir! The lyrics are very well though off (yes they are!). The song is good and the mix is just increadible! Wait a go Star Salzman!!! (Oh, and for the record, since I have so bad hears, I won't give it a perfect note... Instead, I'll give it a 9.99 on 10) Hehehe... Quote
