Twilight princess is far from my favorite Zelda game, but this piece still resonates with me after all these years since playing it for the first and last time. It's so simple but works so well and is just perfect for this part of the game. It's usually the simple pieces that end up sticking with me I think, and it's ALWAYS the simple pieces that let me get super creative with a cover arrangement idea. I'm gonna go out on a limb and say that this may be the most creative I've gotten with a cover since Corridors of Time or Easton Kingdom.
After I laid down the clean parts in the middle with that nifty little tremolo effect, I was about to start doing my usual "look I can do blues/jazz stuff too" dance when an idea occurred to me: this would probably be incredible with a sax here. Luckily for me, I'm friends with the immensely talented insaneintherainmusic who not only laid down a spectacular lead for the clean part, but even had an idea for the post-metal trem picking part after it. He even put up with me asking questions about trying to mix sax with metal like an idiot. Seriously, go check out his channel if you like incredibly well-done sax-oriented jazz type stuff.

Speaking of mixing, I also tried to step up my game with my mixing and mastering; I hope you can tell. Special thanks to MaximumHamburgers for feedback and pointing me in the right direction since I have no fuckin idea what I'm doing. Go check out his channels as well; he's got a solo channel as well as his band channel (Tetrimino VG Band):

Supertron Check out TesseracT - Calibi Yau
Supertron Trioscapes
jrtakesthesky27 I normally kinda discourage redirecting people to other artists on my videos, but I fully endorse promotion of Trioscapes. So fucking good.
RichaadEB Yeah but
Why discourage that? Just wondering.
Psylo Productions Well, I'm gonna be a transparent jerk here but...
most smaller (and a lot of bigger) UA-camrs / artists like me are that way. It's cuz we just barely managed to get some attention on our video after working our asses off to produce it, then other commenters (wanting to share the love) unintentionally redirect people AWAY from our channel. There's no harm intended and it probably does minimal amounts to begin with, but in my mind I'm thinking "c'mon, they're already established musicians or artists. They already have all the love in the world. Let people familiarize themselves with me for a bit before sending them off elsewhere." Sharing other artists is amazing and encouraged but, like... just try to avoid it in the channel comments if you can help it.
However, Trioscapes are fucking amazing and horrendously underrated so I don't care a whole lot.
is sexy metal a genre yet
because after this song, it should be
***** wanna make out
RichaadEB this goes without saying
"Sexy metal"
uuuuh . . .
I'm sure japan has something for you . . .
*feels sick*
ugh, Japan you . . . you make a lot of good, but jesus
and the worst part is PEOPLE WANT IT.
That progressive take on Midna's lament is truly awesome, you really got me when insaneintherainmusic came in with the sax. Fantastic work guys !
I tweeted this video to Peanut Butter Gamer. Evidently he's watched a few of your videos today after seeing this and he really likes them. Just thought you'd like to know :)
+SquishyTheTitan This Guy and PBG would be the best of friends
Cool beans bro
I still come back to this AT LEAST weekly and it continues to slap me in the face with nostalgia. so good.
I always come back too, this version is the best
This very well might be my new favorite from you. Great work my friend! Also Carlos you are amazing.
ToxicxEternity he is p qt tbh
Best thing I've heard in a long time. Major props to both of you!

How can this have only 232k views? It's such a masterpiece
Great man! I really like how eery the part from 0:00 to 0:50 sounds... The clean guitar, delay, the cool double guitar backing track. Awesome!
Fighting against time to save the twilight princess. Oh how i love to run about hyrule field just listening to this.
Warning: Consult your doctor before listening to this song.
Side effects may include:
Eargasm
Shortness of breath
The inclination to shout, "F*ck yeah!"
The desire to headbang or move in general
Listen at your own risk.
you forgot goosebumps lol
Groomple
lol, yeah XD
XD
I cannot contain my "fuck yeah"
This is seriously amazing. Rich, you continue to outdo yourself. And yes, Progressive post-metal fusion is one of my favorite genres.
Ace Waters Dude, we gottaaaaaa start the progressive post neo-80s spacefolk band with boozy and da boys.
Get your ass out here. The moment we get you out in Oregon, the world will never be the same.
Oh damn
At the point the saxophone came in with the tremolo/vibrato guitar in the background, it sounded almost like Pink Floyd's "Money". Nice!
***** Definitely what I was going for!
Midna for the soul
Dang, guys, this is the best arrangement of this piece I've ever heard. I really like those rattly guitar chords behind the sax. I'M IN LOVE, BUT HOW WILL I CHOOSE??
boozinwalsh POLYAMORY
RichaadEB harem it up
***** We'll get you in there and make it a..... guitarem.
Every time I think I've got a favorite of your's, I end up finding another ... this is spectacular.
I was just thinking the same thing lol. I don't know how I missed this one! It's fucking perfect!
The saxophone part really complemented the rest of the arrangement- it was perfect!
Man this is sounding insanely good! Best Midna's Lament cover ever!
I can't even express in words how amazing this sounded
This is one of if not my favorite song from that game and you played it beautifully
Damn dudes, that was smooth. It gets beautiful and runs into double and halftime feels while still maintaining the powerful foundation throughout. That was just awesome man.
I bet you listen to a lot of Between the Buried and Me.
+MadDongTannen never heard of em ;)
+RichaadEB What about Opeth?
+Wendell Campbell He's kidding. Look at his vids, he has covers of them towards the start of the channel.
+MadDongTannen WAS I THE ONLY ONE TO SING: "I can't hear a thing" at the beginning?
@@raitoxote no sir
Man this is sick, I have heard Midna's Lament covers before but, this one is just so damn creative!!!
Good Goddess Hylia!!!
I've always loved how smooth my man's is with his guitar playing. I would have no one else help the classic Zelda tracks we all know and love turn into pure works of metal art.
Your slower stuff is always really nice man. It's weird being calmed by metal, but I really dig it.
Metal isn't really my thing but this... This works!
Your stuff just keeps getting better and better!
Listened to this a thousand times, still getting goosebumps at 3:35
Thank you, Rich
Yay, we have downloads - I could easily pass this off as as not-video game music
ToadProductionINC Glad you think so. I try to put my own spin on covers and make them unique, so hearing that is a big compliment :)
Oh damn! That ending solo!!! :D Sick arrangement man! Carlos was a real nice touch. Both of your styles mixed so well! Perfect you two!!!!
Oh man, this is so good. And that saxophone is amazing.
Pyrobug0 carlos is a babe
the SAX brings this to 11 honestly both of you are fantastic musicians!
I swear man, this is insane! You're my idol for playing the guitar, awesome stuff man! This is one of my favorite songs ever from a video game and you absolutely nailed it!
***** Thanks man, glad you think so! I really wanted to do this one right :)
Freaking gorgeous, and the sax really worked in there well. Expressive af my liege
That haunting intro was sublime... I think I broke the Like button on my comp.
INCREDIBLE
WOAH I was not expecting this! Nicely done!
Zant created 28 accounts to dislike this
The first half gives me some Metroid Metal vibes. Excellent!
there is now liquid running from my ears, and it isn't blood
BillyTheBard11th I think that's meningitis m8
I wasn't expecting the Sax and Guitar to go together so well but my god, it was amazing.
+Matt Graham Sax'll go with just about anything. After all, it's one letter away from sex and comes in every shape and range imaginable. Who doesn't like all kinds of crazy sex?
Awesome.
This isn't just phenomenal for a video game music cover, this is phenomenal for any form of music. This arrangement is fantastic
I got goosebumps, this is beautiful. ❤
I love this.
thank you cause this THIS IS PERFECTION
The sax reminds me of Calabi-Yau by TesseracT. Was that the kind of vibe you were going for? Amazing! Best cover of this song ever!
OdnetninAdlez Haven't listened to a whole lot of TesseracT, was going more a combination of Agalloch, M83, and Pink Floyd with that section. Glad you enjoyed it!

Hey you! Yeah, you reading this comment. Have you liked the video yet?
thanks for the friendly reminder. I almost forgot.
I did not! Thank you for the reminder!
i have, actually :D
thekingofcardboard I didn't even think about it until I read this. Thank you
Some dude in the comments said this was their favourite cover of yours... It's definitely up there.
That little electric progression reminded me a ton of your Mass Effect 2 Suicide Mission cover.
You're amazing, man. Love your work.
wow this sounds awesome. brings me back to playin tp when i was 12. good times. great cover man.
This is like that Techno Future Metal Noir. I love it. :D
This is really good :o Like, really really good.
This sounds great for a Boss fight!
Oh. My. God. When those sweeps came in my jaw dropped.
I was so angry that this only had 5,500 views, then I saw the upload date, I'll check back in a month!
it should have millions!
***** Here's hoping! Be sure to share it around! :)
Gorgeous...
Best cover of Midna's Lament hands down, you guys made it sound more heartbreaking than it already was. Your lead playing is amazing as always (really enjoyed the solo towards the end) and when the sax came in it hit me right in the soul
Never did I think that a saxophone would contrast well with this brutal metal. You've done it again Rich, you've taken an already really emotional song, and not only make it into hardcore metal, but you've also made it into this beautiful masterpiece. Especially that part at 3:37. And Carlos did such an amazing job for this too. I think I can surely say that you're the best video game cover artist on the internet, Rich. Not exaggerating even slightly.
Christian Richardson
Where there is music there is always some intensity, however, Richard takes it to a whole new level.
that's one bad ass sax
easily my favorite thing you've done :)
I didn't expect a collab between you and Carlos to happen but it's amazing! The part Carlos plays is so sexy and your playing is stunning Richaad!
megalomania29 Thanks!
Great epic metal cover :)
I didn't even looked the video, but its the BEST IDEA EVER.
Fucking chills down my spine, dude
Remind what you did with uncharted worlds from Mass Effect. Great job buddy, as always!
Very beautiful. Well done ^_^
This is so awesome
So well done!!
Who else came back to this video because the top comment on the Gerhman theme video?
I've never played the game, but this music is GREAT!!!!
Sax metal is now my favorite music.
I can't believe how well that came out.
Check out Tesserract, one of their songs contains the sax and its amazing.
Damn... Such a powerful transition from that sax part. Made me feel things ya know ;) freakin great stuff man
Hey, I really love this cover, but I have a question about it. Is there a reason that the arpeggios in the harmony at the beginning don't mach up to those in the original song? For one, the ones here go up and back down, whereas the original's just kept going up, and two, I'm pretty sure (though not 100% certain) you're playing different notes. Once the song picks up, it sounds like the original's. Did you intentionally do this?
+Blue Darner yep. from what I recall they are the same notes as the original, except that top one would have required either an extra string or an extra finger, and I wanted to sustain all the notes I was playing so I just decided to play a variant.
You guys are savages 🔥
Chills

I read the title as being a "Metal Cover". I was not expecting saxophone, but it was absolutely gorgeous.
Go full screen and type "awesome" (don't include the quotes).
Holy crap this is good.
That was a great cover! The saxophone was a very cool addition.
SaxBro absolutely murders it on this track. Your work's awesome as always but the sexophone was a very happy surprise
i don't get why some people would give a thumbs down to something like this... you're pissed off by someone else's hard work? anyways.... killer!
I need an extended version so bad
This so epic. It should be played in the back ground of all slow motion epic battles. This is going straight into my likes playlist.
Yep, I'm fucking subbed.
This sounds like Fallujah, and it's so awesome.
I don't know what I expected.
look at you two goin all tesseract on us. niice. sax metal is best.
Within the first 20 seconds I got chills down my spine. The tone you set here is perfect.
Don't you tells me what my favorite genre is! Exquisite job fellas. Let the sea of ladies flood your rooms.
Such amazing arrangement and the combination with the sax worked out perfectly
This is like Sawano Hiroyuki's Compositions dude RichaadEB
Do you take suggestions of video game songs that could get the metal treatment?
I'm lamenting about the download links being down.
Wow, this is Good. Outstanding bass line. All the transitions are silky smooth. Sax guy nailed it, staccato reverb so retro yet fits nicely. This is my new fave. The entire arrangement is glorious! I WANT MOAR.
I see how it is...
Best Midna's Lament cover ever.
Dann Link, after all this time I have watched so many of these covers. This is now in a tie for first with flowering nights.
