FireWhale Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 Totally entering this. Uematsu was a huge influence on me when I was younger and still is to this day. It's absolutely no problem to support him, especially since that official page has so few fans! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WingsofMana Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 Uematsu will always be one of my favourite music composers, and that puts him at the top in my mind with others like Hans Zimmer or Danny Elfman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cloakedvalkyrie Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 Uematsu has taken music to a whole new level, and helped prove that games are more than just beeps and blips on a screen, even for the SNES, you never forget the music years afterward. I have the Distant Worlds CDs and loved the concert in Baltimore a few years ago and wished I had heard of this years 2011 concert there in time to buy tickets and go again. I love Final Fantasy Distant worlds and I would love to win this contest! Meeting Nobuo Uematsu would be a great honor and the thrill of a lifetime!

gabecube Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 You now, I am not one to participate in contest and I rarely ever even Like Facebook pages... but this is a worthy cause. And you know, makes me want to check if Yasunori Mitsuda and Akira Yamaoka have Facebook pages... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kfonatoko Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 Nobuo Uematsu made the Final Fantasy series fun and exciting. Even when he could only work with 8-bit music, he made the soundtrack better than almost every other game soundtrack coming out today. He is truly one of my greatest inspirations as a musician.

Ryuk the Kid Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 Oh man hearing some Nobuo Uematsu sounds freaking amazing. Gotta love his music and all the Overclocked Remixes. Hope I win so badly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LuckyXIII Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 Final Fantasy 6 was the first (and so far only) full-scale RPG I've beaten. And that without a strategy guide. I was living in Georgia at the time and had really not wanted to move there from North Carolina, so I spent a lot of time seeking out Espers and such. The story, the characters, and particularly the music have stayed with me ever since. Uematsu has created a series of classic scores. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kukiko Ichigo Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 Nobuo Uematsu inspired me to make music myself. Thanks to him, from an early age I taught myself how to read and write music, and then how to use various MIDI programs and instrument packs to bring it all to life. I would love to meet the man responsible for these aspects of creativity in my life. ヽ(´▽`)/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archleone Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 The music of final fantasy was the sound track of my childhood...and even to this day when I pass a test I still hear the victory fanfare in my head. This is a good contest as it honors a worthy man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tepid Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 I have a lot to thank Nobuo Uematsu for, both as a great composer and a man with a fantastic personality. I had absolutely no hesitation in clicking the 'like' button on his pages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

touchoftritoch Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 nobuo changed the way i perceived the music in a video game. my first FF game was Mystic Quest. between storyline and soundtrack, hands down the best. after that was FFIII. my. heart. stopped. the moment i head Toki No Horousha (sp?) or Terra's Theme, i nearly wept. it's one of the most moving pieces i've ever heard. yes, im posting here for the contest, but i'm also posting to support one of the best musical geniuses the world has been blessed with. thank you Nobuo!

Jamphibious Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 Posting because I GOTTA. What an amazing opportunity! Nobuo Uematsu is a pretty inspiring composer to me. He's written some absolutely incredible themes over the past few decades. I would be so honored and thrilled to win this, the meeting or even just the music!

Monobrow Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 Hi, I guess I am posting to enter. Before I had the internet, or really the ability to in any way, find any video game soundtracks... I used to record Nobuo Uematsu's music while playing Final Fantasy when I was young. I would spend hours replaying games I had already played numerous times, just to have a chance to record the music onto my tape player. I'd get to a point in the game where I knew new music would be introduced, and hit the record button, play the song 2 or 3 times (depending on how much I liked it, which was usually every song), and then I'd fade out with the volume. If the take wasn't perfect, I would reload my game and try again. When I finally had a tape ready, I would play it every night before bed on headphones and drift to sleep. I held these tapes with reverence for many years in a way that most of my peers could never understand. But I loved the music so much, and I am happier for experiencing it. Thanks for inspiring me with your music! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
