This song has been on my list for a while. Probably since early last year, and I've even gotten a few requests for it in that time, but it has finally arrived! You know.. I find it only proper that I should improve with every song I do, and it seems like I've done that for the past few videos. Let's hope I can keep it up. ;D
But with this song, I wanted to stay true, but also to do my own thing at the same time. The first go around is pretty straight to the song. But the second time, I whip out a new strum pattern, all kinds of assorted percussion that I recorded myself, and of course, the ocarina. And then to top it all off, a solo at the end. I find that a solo doesn't have to be all shredding to be good. Take many of Pink Floyd's solos, or Queen, or The Eagles. They have melodic, soulful solos, and that's what I shot for.
So, tell me what you think. How you like the mix, the video editing? A tried to make the video more fast paced, to show more instruments. So, overall, what'd you think? Let me know in the comments. See ya next song. :)

Still one of the best (if not THE best of any) guitar covers I’ve ever heard in my entire 24.3 years of existence
It still brings tears of beauty to my eyes every time I listen to it.
I can't believe this hasn't gotten more attention. It's one of my all-time favorites.
thank you for sharing this beautiful cover of Oki's Theme with us. Okami has a very special place in my gamer heart, and so does it's soundtrack. The second part where you gave the song your own unique spin is really awesome. It was a joy to listen to this piece *goes and hits the replay button*
I loved the way I pwned that guy.
I got goosebumps all over my body when you referenced The Sun Rises near the end :)
Every single note and chord was crisp and clean! Great balance dude. EPIC cover!
Absolute perfect mix of acoustic and electric. If anyone can top it, I don't want to hear it. This is downright breathtaking.
Oki is my favorite Okami character!
Very smooth and methodical. Thumbs up for great music.
ERMAGHERD. THOSE THREE BANDS THAT YOU LISTED ARE MY THREE FAVORITE BANDS, YOU LOVE VIDEOGAMES, AND YOU LOVE HOW TO TRAIN YOUR DRAGON. YOU SIR, ARE AMAZING.
This is incredible and I kind of love you. Thank you.
Moving Heaven and earth with the sounds of his music, eh?
I always love seeing your videos. Never forget!
This cover was Oki dokie I guess... lol terrible joke, but wonderful cover man, your acoustic tone is so amazing!
I am getting this game for Christmas. so excited
Okis theme was practically the best composed song in the whole game (though not by much) as soon as you here that flute, you can practically understand exactly what kind of person Oki is.
Once again, another great cover!
I use Elixir, the gauge being 10s or 11s I believe. They're definitely the best acoustic strings, and although a little pricier, they last for a looong time. And no problem! :D
It is going to blow your mind.
Right in the goosebumps...
your best cover by faaar!! thats awesome work dude!
Oki theme is my favorite. I'm so glad I found this.
Woo, this gave me chills man. Fantastic cover!
Wow..just wow..
You certainly deserve more views! Such a clear sound and beautiful cover.. You just let me without words. So young and so talented... You have my respect.
I'm really liking this Tuesday deal, though I thought you would do Thursdays. Great job, this is a stand out cover for sure, much more serene than usual.
You sir, are definitely improving! This is fantastic! The mix is just amazing :D
So badass. Love it!
MASTERPIECE! Reminds me of the old spaghetti westerns that Sergio Leone used to make. The balance you got is perfect!
Though some of the older covers are still my favorite, I sincerely think this was your most expertly played and put together piece yet.
Sounds fantastic, dude.
Perfect... The Okami music is so beautiful you made a great job with this song... Greetings from Ecuador...
i love okami even know i havent played it but iv watched my friend play
You should do more okami covers :)
This takes his theme and makes it seem like something in a sort of western setting.
Amazing!!!
Amazingly fantastical
best cover so far, and i know we all want this but can you please cover the sun rises ps great job
Muy bien Amigo, Very Good !!!
Ocarina, Triangle... Now all we need to complete the triad of epic is the Theremin.
awesomely played man! funny cuz i just started listening to his theme a few days ago great work here ^^
You sir have a celestial guitar instead of a celestial brush.
Even though I haven't played the game yet (plan on) I must say, GREAT rendition :D
Could you please make more Covers of Okami ? It sounds so awesome, you're a great player.
very very good :D i like it very much
Very awesome, just as every other video of yours. I've never played the game, but I'll search it. This song reminded me of Planet Caravan, by the way, don't ask me why
A little before 2:06 :D awesome work dude!
That was sick.
Very nice.
All these feels... ;~;
Omg...This is awesome...BUT IT'S WAY MORE AWESOME!!!!!

Kamui Vilage :) Love......love..
The last part of Okirumi's theme is very close to a part of 'the Sun Rises'... listen very carefully in the very last part!
A lil late on the response, but yeah! I wrote that guitar solo and included the Sun Rises theme in it. :)
jam2995
Awesome! Also, amazing work! Keep it up! :D
Nice! :D
jam2995 I have a question. First off I love the music second I would love to know if you have the tabs you use, or if you just eared it. I would love to learn this on guitar, but I am no pro. Please let me know soon.
so pretty!!!! XD I love the game so mutch and now I have the second game i just hope the third game will come out soon
Im so sad that I havent found this earlier. I mean, like, REALLY sad.
It's sad that this isn't downloadable anymore.
Hey Jam, May I ask what strings are you using for your acoustic? Thanks again for introducing me to this game!
beautiful song and well played :)
is it possible to get tabs for this? :D
Clean as fuck! Great arrangement man.

+G.A.D.S THE KING OF GAMER Nunca joguei valkrie profile mas acho as falas dos personagens bem iconicas.
solo 3 envidiosos que no le gusta, la gente es así, felicidades por tu gran trabajo
quick question dude, so for your drumming, you use an interface or something and for recording, you just get an apogee to record the guitars and bass?
I think the mixing was great.
DUDE! Please do Wonderful Life from Harvest Moon!

Who is your favorite brushgod
Appropriate you should mention Pink Floyd. This sounds like something off the Division Bell. 1000 internets for you, good sir.
Hey Jake, can you tell me the chords you used & and tunning your acoustic guitar is?
:')
TRIANGLE
Take those stickers of your monitors !
Speaking of Floyd, "Dogs" is all over this theme.
The original sounds like a traditional Japanese folk tune.
This cover sounds like Carlos Santana did this.
Still good though.
Damn right, I'm gonna get it. Hahaha
Please TABS!Need them soon!
Metroid Prime 3 and Minish Cap Please?
sun rise's plz, its my favourite soundtrack song of all time from my favourite game, if you played that you would be a new god.
