"You will know the pain and suffering you caused the emperor, AND FIORA!!!" Damn it, I loved Xenoblade back in the day. I should give it another whirl sometime.
The great thing about Engage the Enemy is it always accompanied the dramatic moments. As soon as you heard it, you knew whether what was to come would amaze or break your heart. That it would be hype as hell.
Oh my god you have no idea how excited I was to see this pop up in my notifications, this song absolutely means so much to me and all of Xenoblade fans. So many insane moments that happen are accompanied by this song and getting to listen to your cover was an absolute gift. Also funny how this is number 7 when there’s a certain somebody who goes by that name by the fandom
I got the first Xenoblade Chronicles on Wii literally because I heard those opening piano notes on somebody's Project M setup at a tournament and was immediately sold. It's been a wild ride since.
Some of the best voice acting I've ever seen in video games. Apparently they kept them in the dark as to what was happening until it came time to record the voice lines, just to make his reactions seem more genuine.
"Loss" A catalyst for a set of emotions so powerful and sorrowful, most people feel its the end, the lowest point in their lives, like there's nothing worth going on for anymore. Shulk however, was able to turn the feelings of loss into courage, and the strength to seize his destiny, and finally found out the truth. Thank you for doing this song justice, its beautiful.
Incredible song, the moment it first played in the game was when the whole game turned around for the greater. Love this franchise so much. Outstanding performance as usual!
I’ve been replaying XC1 recently, and it’s been awesome. Music is wonderful, of course; I damn near cried when I walked into Agniratha and it just so happened to switch over to nighttime at that exact moment.
Xenoblade will always be amongst my favorite OST in all of gaming. Please tell me you’re thinking doing “GOD SLAYING SWORD” soon! I know you’ll do Justice!
The first time I heard it was in the definitive edition. Haven’t played 1 before. Only played 2. And man…. The first scene this song popped up I damn well put my controller aside and was in awe by how spectacular it was with that heart wrenching scene and scream of shulk.
@@WillieG-jh6jzshulks voice actor goes so fucking hard in that game, elevates the whole experience. still the best protag from the series, with the best voice acting. his casual conversations are full of personality, he nails emotional moments, and he puts his whole soul into those screams.
@@timestopMachinist oh yessss! Absolutely loved his work on shulk. He was amazing! I played while alternating between English and Japanese dub and to my surprise BOTH of em are very well done!
This song is such a sparkin banger! Brings me back to my teenage years and being absolutely blown away by Xenoblade's amazing and emotional soundtrack. Xenoblade 1 is my all-time favorite game to this day. Love it!
this is eeriely amazing , the original theme's first guitar howl felt like an Alpha Raptor circling its prey and taunting it with a roar as it gets ready to devour it , but in this video cover , the first howl of the guitar at 13 sec mark felt like a Giant eerie phantom wolf circling its prey instead , i love itttt
Engage the Enemy has always been my favorite dramatic moment theme in the XBC series - don't tell Counterattack and Carrying the Weight of Life I said that! Wait a second, isn't there a badass theme that regularly plays right after this in the cutscenes? What was the name?
You're probably thinking of One Who Gets in Our Way (or whatever it's called nowadays, the majority of the soundtrack names were translations by fans when I downloaded it)
@@SkittleE275 The specific song is either "One Who Gets in Our Way" (Which is the name I use) or "An Obstacle in Our Path." If there are other names for it, I do not know them.
Jules, idk if it's you or me, but you have been KILLING it lately. Just REALLY nice sounds, really nice moods, great goddamn music comin' out of you. Thanks for another great track.
Yay, a song from my no1 soundtrack! There are so many songs from this soundtrack that brings out so much emotion. It's great to have a new arrangement to listen to. Amazing job! Fingers crossed that there is another track from the OST on the top 20 list.
With two xenoblade songs in the top 20, I can only think weight of life would come soon. But, we’ll have to see. Amazing cover, cannot wait for the last 6.
Easily the most underrated track in the game, and it's not even funny. ...Well, no, I lie; Unfinished Battle is actually the most underrated of the two, but both are still unnecessarily overshadowed by the more popular tracks of the game, so yeah.
Now that he has done Engage The Enemy and Counterattack I will be waiting with excitement for Carrying The Wight Of Life.
YESSSS

Never disappointing with the Xenoblade covers, Engage the enemy always hits hard
Unlike Shulk's blade, which did not cut deep enough
@@shamussarrazine6623Or the Monado during the Colony 6 mines, so they had to try harder.
@@geers1518it was until they drowned Xord in mtn dew that they could finally deal damage
Xenoblade chronicles has one of THE BEST OSTs EVER imo
"Dunban, you'll never win! Get on your knees and worship me!"
"Never. I will strike you down and all that you have become, you wretched fool."
"The Monado will stop you. And then you will know the shame of all that you have done, traitor!
"Shut your mouth and come on!"
"Reyn, Sharla, we are Homs, and we won't just stand here, waiting to be eaten"
"I swear I won't stop, until I've scrapped each and every one of you!"

@@life-destiny1196It’s a wild ride, this passage of fate.
Us Xenoblade fans are eating good with this top 20 series, never thought I'd get to hear Jules cover this one but I'm glad its here finally!!
aw man i thought of that part where shulk screams “i’ll kill you!!!” to metal face after seeing fiora get killed. It always gives me chills
It's also at this point I realized the voice acting in this game will be good.
Unlike 2

Thank you for doing this song justice, its beautiful.
This arrangement did cut deep enough our hearts ❤️
Like a hot knife through butter
Without Carrying the Weight Of Life now, this blade didnt cut deep enough...
I see Xenoblade Chronicles I click, and this is SO EPIC!
The thumbnail to this cover is so funny as this song mainly plays at more tragic moments.
This is a great cover!
Incredible song, the moment it first played in the game was when the whole game turned around for the greater. Love this franchise so much. Outstanding performance as usual!
This franchise has some of the best VGM, this is killer
This is a very jamming interpretation of one of the emotionally hardest-hitting songs in all of gaming, great work!
I’ve been replaying XC1 recently, and it’s been awesome. Music is wonderful, of course; I damn near cried when I walked into Agniratha and it just so happened to switch over to nighttime at that exact moment.
Absolute banger. One of my all time favorites!
I also loved when Shulk proposed marriage to Zanza. Shame Egil stopped the wedding.
Engage the Enemy is by far my favorite Xenoblade track, so as you can imagine, I was very excited to see this upload.
Ah yes, one of my 5 favorite songs in the game. I usually have like 1 or 2 at most
Had a double take and clicked immediately when I noticed the thumbnail
Amazing cover as always 🫡
The amount of Xenoblade covers popping up in my feed these past few months has been amazing. Great cover, as always! Love the arrangement!
I'll be waiting Carrying The Weight Of Life🤩
INSANELY GOOD. First was Counterattack, then Engage the Enemy, that means that hopefully Carrying the Weight of Life is soon, right?
The theme of some of the most emotionally intense scenes in gaming history.
This gives me hope we’ll one day see zanza the divine
I first heard that song in Smash, and now it's one of my favorite songs in that game. Love that cover!
Xenoblade will always be amongst my favorite OST in all of gaming. Please tell me you’re thinking doing “GOD SLAYING SWORD” soon! I know you’ll do Justice!
Oh this is snuffing FANTASTIC! Amazing cover, Jules! God, the ENERGY in this one!
i dont know why but every time i hear this song i get a bit emotional cuz its that good among other songs from the ost.

Xenoblade and Jules is always a great combo.
Ah what timing to see this as I started playing Xenoblade. Got Sharla in the party and the game has been really fun so far!
At this point I need a Jules cover of every Xenoblade song!
Cheers. Every. Single. Time.
Thank you to everyone that voted for this song. I didn't realize how badly I needed a cover of this until now.
this is eeriely amazing , the original theme's first guitar howl felt like an Alpha Raptor circling its prey and taunting it with a roar as it gets ready to devour it , but in this video cover , the first howl of the guitar at 13 sec mark felt like a Giant eerie phantom wolf circling its prey instead , i love itttt

@@fluffyeevee383 Ayyy, thanks hoss
"Your guitar, it did not shred deep enough"
Why yes, I will be replaying 1:10 repeatedly as it's one of my favourite parts in a JRPG soundtrack in the past two decades.
Ah yes... please never stop, this is great! Thanks for your Work and thanks for doing more Xenoblade recently. Those Games have an amazing OST :)
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS!!!
One of my absolute favorite tracks in all of gaming. Amazing cover!
The chills. You did amazing
Hell yeah! My favorite from all of xenoblade chronicles! Love it so much!
IT'S SHULK WITH A STEEL CHAIR!!
I really like that driving rhythm guitar around the 2:00 mark, it feels weirdly nostalgic
That was phenomenal, Jules! You really nailed the melancholy feeling of the song.
This is the hardest-sounding depressing music I've ever heard...
probably because of all the context...
FIORAAAAAAAAA
she xeno on my blade until i chronicles
what a fantastic song to drop on my birthday
love it
Two covers from two of my favorite games in a row! Thanks Jules!!
Maybe the best song in the game.
And recorded beautifully
God damn I saw Xenoblade song in notifs and I popped off. Amazing cover as usual!
My face has been thoroughly melted off after this cover
YESSSS MORE XENOBLADE
mannnnnn this hits so hard, always love these xenoblade covers
Man, thank you for your awesome covers, you've been a source of inspiration for many years 🙏
Jules, idk if it's you or me, but you have been KILLING it lately. Just REALLY nice sounds, really nice moods, great goddamn music comin' out of you. Thanks for another great track.
Yay, a song from my no1 soundtrack!
There are so many songs from this soundtrack that brings out so much emotion.
It's great to have a new arrangement to listen to. Amazing job!
Fingers crossed that there is another track from the OST on the top 20 list.
First note. And instant goosebumps from head to toe.
Ngl I already thought you did a cover of this now I'm REALLY FEELING IT
This being my absolute favorite game of all time hearing you cover yet another song absolutely made my entire year. Thank you!!!❤
Xenoblade is such an incredible game, and Jules is an incredible artist
Spectacular cover!!
I am very engaged by this excellent cover!
A banger track and banger cover for the ages! Xenoblade music is on another level of legendary!
Immediate goosebumps. Captured the essence of the track perfectly but with your epic metal touch. ❤
YES! Two out of three... The Weight of Life next?
This gave me goosebumps. He even managed to fit a short solo in...
Dayum you've been delivering some amazing stuff recently!
"He moves like... But that's impossible!"
We need more Xenoblade. This was amazing !!!!!!!!!!!!
I've only played X and 2, but so many tracks from the original are absolute 🔥
My default BGM Choice for Guar Plains in Smash Bros. You did it justice.
With two xenoblade songs in the top 20, I can only think weight of life would come soon. But, we’ll have to see. Amazing cover, cannot wait for the last 6.
Beautiful loving it! Good job Jules!
You really did just wake up and decide to cover literally all the best music lately, huh? Slaps
man, this song is heavy AF. Great cover.
I NEVER THOUGHT I'D SEE THE DAY
I. . . kinda forgot you hadn't done this one.
Babe wake up Jules just released the next top game soundtrack vid
Amazing cover as always!
Amazing one of the best out there!!
Never disappointed with these, great job!!!
Easily the most underrated track in the game, and it's not even funny.
...Well, no, I lie; Unfinished Battle is actually the most underrated of the two, but both are still unnecessarily overshadowed by the more popular tracks of the game, so yeah.
"They're..gone then whose blood is-oh no." "AH HERE AT LAST HA HA, I'VE BEEN GETTIN HUNGRY!"
Anytime I see a Xenoblade cover, from you or from ToxicxEternity, I can't NOT click.
YESSSSSS 🤘 LET'S GOOOOOOO 👏
This went SO hard
Hell yeah! More Xenoblade!

Amazing song and amazing Cover. Good job
