I LOVE this song. It's so freakin wicked it drives me nuts. Thanks so much for tabbing it Doom, great job :)
@Kabukibear 15 years ago
Yeah good job Doom, it sounds great. Just a point of interest, why did you put this in 6/4 ?
As I was looking at the tab I saw all the dotted notes, was there any particular reasoning behind this?
@TheDoomOfAllFires 15 years ago
In that case 6/4 is just clearer than 4/4 (well, at least for the arpeggio, i don't really like to see tabs with bunches of n-tuplets... Just a matter of taste XD).

I'd beg you to reconsider. Have you tried actually tapping your foot to this? It's almost impossible to keep time. Plus, the triplet patterns help people understand that it should "feel" in 3's. If a person turns on the metronome this is going to throw them all off as they'll be playing staggered 8th note triplets.

Ok, i will update the tab.

I like compound time. In this song they feel like triplets to me, but I have no problem counting with a dotted eighth / dotted quarter beat in general.

Sure, but when you're playing this you're not counting the dotted 8ths as dotted 8ths in 6/4, I'm sure you're counting them as 8ths in 4/4 with every two 8ths on a beat. If you were really counting this as dotted notes in 6/4 you've got notes playing on all parts of the beat.
That being said, because you're not going to be actually playing this as it's written, there's no reason not to write it as you're going to play it. It's more accurate and looks better than having dots everywhere and triplets that aren't marked. It's just a matter of removing the dots, adding triplet marks, and writing 4/4 at the beginning. It's not a huge deal but if you've got the metronome going to keep tempo it will probably screw people up.

@generalmartacus 15 years ago
I have been looking for a tab to this song for a LONG time. Finally I have one to play with. Thanks, Doom!
@KaminaSora 15 years ago
I've been dying to play this! Thanks a lot. Your tabs are really great, you tabbing all FF songs that haven't been tabbed, so far an awesome job. PLS do keep it up. How about a tab of Succesion of Witches or (FF8) Castle?
@Brave Toaster 14 years ago
I get very intimidated with all this technical talk between great masters. But, well, I liked this arrangement very much. It's one of my favorite duets in this site. Everything is perfectly placed! You made it dense and playable at the same time!
Thank you for sharing it with us!

Going to 5 star this business fo sho.
The midi chords in the opening sound a little cloggy, maybe just because they're rolling arpeggiated instead of hit squarely on. I'll probably record a sample take and see if it's just the rolling-ness of them, or if they really are cloggy. It could be the midi sound itself too. Midis just never sound as good as the real instrument.
@Macabremcmxci 4 years ago
Gotta love this tab. I couldn't distinguish what the piece was from the title and just started playing the tab. Hell yes i remember this - amazing work, thank you.
