Ok, Whoever did the Frank Sinatra impersonation, Kudos to them; That is spot-on!
Benny benack III, vocalist and trumpet soloist
lol 😂 I think it was just him singing but yeah
@@heroabove8824watch the music video, he plays the trumpet solo
That the Great Benny benack The thrid! Ring a ding baby!
It's finally here! Also, nice integration of the strings, pretty sure that wasn't in the original recording
Thats true it wasn't! I wrote string parts after the fact for the live shows since we use a string section, and so I figured I'd include them incase anyone wanted to do the same. Just threw some MIDI strings on this video for example purposes
Now all of the trilogy includes the full orchestra :D
I have always loved this one. ❤️
I'm making a note here,
HUGE SUCCESS
congrats guys!
I missed the "maybe Black Mesa... That was a joke. Ha ha. Fat chance" but loved the big band style
It's been decades now since I last had chance to play piano with a big band, but just following the piano part along here made me want to pick it up again!
If I learn to play an instrument, this will be the first song I will learn
The kazoo. You hum in it, it makes the exact same sound but funny.
Thanks for this, Charlie! Loved every single Portal cover arrangement.
Portal was the first game that really made a lasting impression on me as a kid. Thanks for bringing me back to that era
Thank you so much for posting the score! I love the Portal covers you did
don't have enough words to express how awesome this is!
I LOVE THIS SONG!!! THANK YOU FOR SHARING THE MUSIC SHEET!!! U GUYS ARE AWESOME :DDD
SUCH GOOD TIMING!!! I'm trying to do this for my senior recital in November, and this literally could not have been more perfect. THANK YOU!!!!!!!
I'm watering at the mouth rn omg thank you so much for this.
The original is a bop, and this is a bop and a half! Great work!
Masterful arrangement right here, just all the right things
The song was already awesome, and your arrangement is amazing. Thanks for sharing the sheet music!
I have been subscribed to this channel ever since 2021 before I graduated from highschool, and I just wanna say that when it comes to videogame rearrangements, you guys always knock it RIGHT out of the park!
I'm not all that sure if you guys take requests or anything, but it would be INCREDIBLE if you guys did "A fish hit" from Sonic Adventure! I was recently listening to it and I think it would sound great, AMAZING even, if you guys were to do it!
Keep up the fantastic work! Can't wait to hear the next 8-bit BIG HIT!!! 💖
Great suggestion!
Could be a good mini arrangement for a short.
I’ve been waiting so long to play this on my sax! Thank you for releasing the sheet music
Great song! Great interpretation :D
Dude the algorithm is DESTROYING these guys. how is this the first time I've been shown these videos!? Absolutely insane performances on all of your videos, and the way the compositions are written is extremely impressive. Enjoying everyone I've listened to. Thanks for doing this!
This is such a great arrangement!
Thank you so very much, now I can study this piece and learn jazz composition!
Incredible !!
Finally, I'll be able to bully my friends into playing this masterpiece together ^^
Also this was the song that introduced me to the 8BBB and I have loved the ever since so seeing the score for it is really noice :D
Amazing!
Awesome work.
This is AWESSSOMMMEEEE.
You guys are so skilled.

This was a TRIUMPH
Ooooh thank you 8Bit ♫♥
Hopefully i can get my school's jazz band to play this
wonderful
I beg my bands to play this no joke
Thank you ❤❤
Love this!!! I first subbed when I saw your Swing Jazz version and INSTANTLY fell in love (This was back early this year). AMAZING. Can you do an orchestral view of it? PLEASE 🥺🥺🥺🥺
The great thing about this song is how true it is
Absolute banger
OH THANK GOODNESS
Sehr geil
This has given me Nelson Riddle vibes.
I cannot thank you enough Charlie! Our jazz band is playing the fnaf chart and I really wanted to take a look at this one :D
They should really do a big band cover of digital circus
This was a triumph!
THANK YPY SO MUCH FOR THIS!!! i'm actually gonna ask my jazz director if we can play this
Love the little quotes from one of Frank Sinatra song

YAAAAAAS
It's hard to overstate my satisfaction!
Dang you really said Swang It Out at 92. 😂 I love seeing the little notes you add to your parts.
Charles, Pixies & Elves.
Thank You!

YEASSSSS
Cool
Make me miss that robot putting us though puzzles trying to kill us such a sanit 😅
I could hear this playing in front of the Rockefeller Center
Lol just yesterday I told my friends this would be a fun version of the song to play if we can find sheet music.
Do Chrono Trigger theme next. Id love to play that song at my school.
YOOOOOOOOOOOO
Still a triumph ;)
Finally, I can do this at jazz band
I play Bari Sax (Bari better than other Saxes)
I've got a bunch of gigs lined up with a Sinatra impersonator. I wonder if I can get him and the band to play this....
Definitely do that
Do it!!! There might be Portal fans in the audience for at least one gig.
I loved this and the 2 og songs as to me its like the twist ended of the old twilight zone or tale from the darkside where in the end we helped IT & this was like the haunting birth message like at the end of law mower man, his/it birth cray was the ringing of al phones (it was the 90s) point is like the crazy genocidal "king old lady" SG! let free, "all debits are paid."
Can you guys do "Can You Feel The Sunshine" like you did at magfest.
hi, would you ever do the credits theme for transformers:devastation?
Was that "I've Got the World on a String" in the intro?
You got me haha
waiting for moonlight sonata
no fucking way you share this masterpiece for free what
I would love to here y’all play some music from cup head.
oh hey, a harp piece I can actually learn lol.
High school jazz bands rejoice!
Please a Five night at freddy 1 sheets.
They already exist on our website, and theres a video of the full score of that tune on our channel
