Frungi Posted October 7, 2010 Share Posted October 7, 2010 Someone (Rabbit Joint?), somewhere, did an extended version of this song, with verses about fighting big bats in dungeons and getting the owl to help him out of the Lost Woods. Does that version exist, aside from having its lyrics posted once on one forum? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skinner3D Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 Ok correct me if I am wrong, but didn't Weird Al do a cover/spoof/parody of this song? I see the whole discussion about it not being a System song, but it doesn't bother me either way. I think it would be hysterical if Weird Al did indeed parody it, since it wan't a mainstream artist that wrote it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

docnano Posted July 10, 2011 Share Posted July 10, 2011 I believed this was SoaD for the longest time. XD Short 'n sweet, this is one of the most memorable early OCR entries, and one I'll be listening to for years to come. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crulex Posted October 6, 2011 Share Posted October 6, 2011 Hahaha, I can't believe how many people on other sites still think this is by either SoaD or Weird Al. To be fair, in some places it kinda does sound like SoaD I suppose, but the Weird Al thing, I don't hear it myself. Either way, it's a nice little tune that probably benefitted from the false label anyway by being heard by non-OCR folks, so it's a bit of a win/loss and then win again. The song is great itself and even though it's a bit too short, it's a great little bite sized ReMix. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Argle Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 It's funny. Back in the day I, like many people, thought this was SOAD. Singer does sound like Serj Tankian, or at least the manic energy and weird inflections of Serj. Nowadays it's transparently obvious that the production quality is nowhere in the league of SOAD. Plus the music doesn't sound anything like them. Yet back in the day I desperately wanted to believe that SOAD was cool enough to do a Zelda cover.

Tables Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 Ahhhhh probably one of a few songs I heard before discovering OCReMix. Probably true of a lot of people. I think it was in some Newgrounds animation? I think I remember it being a really bad sprite animation. Call me strange but this is one of my favorite ReMixes with vocals. Maybe because it doesn't take itself seriously at all (and does sound EERILY like Serj Tankian in some parts). And the instrumentation is really fun even if it's not the best quality. Not much else to say, gonna echo the 'short but sweet' sentiment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BladedEdge Posted November 29, 2023 Share Posted November 29, 2023 This mix more than any other on the site is a time capsule of a specific time, place, and culture. It's infamous not for the actual music, which is fine, but because to this day I am still encountering people who think System of a Down did a Zelda cover at some point, all because this music was labelled that way and spread around on Napster and Kazaa. This is a living artifact of a bygone world. This site has been around a really, really long time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheCD1 Posted March 23 Share Posted March 23 Link still comes to town 24 years later. Great tune that will endure Ganon again and again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
