Highly requested songs (and my thoughts on them) (Patreon)
Content
Believe it or not, I actually do read 99% of the comments on Youtube. I pay a lot of attention to the requests everyone makes. Today we're going to look at some highly requested songs and franchises and my thoughts on them. I'd also like to hear your thoughts on them too!
1. Unfounded Revenge (Mother 3) - I don't know if something Earthbound related has happened recently, but for whatever reason like 10+ people requested this in the comments of Mewtwo Battle. I've also had a lot of requests for Natural Killer Cyborg which is pretty awesome. I'm lacking in the Earthbound department (only having done Pokey Means Business) so I'll probably end up doing one of these really soon. Maybe even mix the 2 together?
2. X vs. Zero (Mega Man X5) - A lot of requests for this song lately. Enough to say that I'll be doing this song very soon. You can never have enough Mega Man!
3. Splatoon - When it comes to actually playing games, I really only have time to play one or two at a time. For the past couple of months I've been playing a lot of Splatoon, I've been getting a ton of requests to do a song from this game and as much as I like it, I definitely will be.
4. One Winged Angel (Final Fantasy VII) - Whilst I do love this song, I've been kind of staying away with it for a couple of reasons. One, because it's one of those really obvious songs that a lot of people have done, and two, because the Advent Children (Black Mages?) version is REALLY good. It's been getting a lot of requests lately, so I'll be keeping my eye on it.
5. Shovel Knight - I'm about due to make a cover for this, it's been requested for a long time. I haven't seen any specific song in particular, but Strike the Earth! seems to be the most popular, so it'd likely end up being that one.
6. Xenoblade Chronicles - The XC requests probably aren't going to stop, but I just recently did one so It'll be a while till I do another one. The question is: Engage the Enemy, Gaur Plains, or Zanza?
7. Kirby - With Masked Dedede being the most popular GaMetal song by a landslide (more than twice the views of the 2nd most popular song, Dark Star Core), a lot of my fan base is now comprised of Kirby fans, meaning I get a ton of Kirby requests, but that's ok because I also love Kirby music! This too has been a mixed bag with the highest requested being Marx's Theme, C-R-O-W-N-E-D, and Dirty and Beauty. It'll be a few songs later till I do another Kirby song, I just did Dark Meta Knight like 4 songs ago.
8. Bravely Default - I had no idea this game was so popular. Song requests have also been kind of mixed with This Person's Name Is having the most, and it almost won the Patreon Poll, so we're going to get to this next month.
9. Touhou - Another franchise popular for song requests, again mixed in terms of a specific song. UN Owen Is Her is a bit overdone, so the current lean is towards Nuclear Fusion.
10. Fire Emblem - Together We Ride and ID (Purpose) are the 2 most requested. Personally I prefer Together We Ride, so I'm probably going to do that one soon.
11. Zelda - I actually haven't done a Zelda song in a while. I've been meaning to do Molgera Battle for a while, so maybe we'll get to that one soon.
12. Smash Bros - If I'm not playing Splatoon, I'm playing SSB4. I do plan on doing a medley of the main themes from the SSB series this year. It's just a matter of getting to it. xD
13. Lightning Battle (Kid Icarus: Uprising) - Insane song. I'm a huge KI:U fan, I've been deciding between this song and the Boss Battle theme from the same game to do for the next KI song.
14. Adventure's End (Mario & Luigi: Dream Team) - As I mentioned earlier, Dark Star Core is the 2nd most popular GaMetal song, so I see a lot of requests for songs from the Mario RPG's. I see this one the most, it's a pretty cool song. Someday.
15. Sonic - Another series with several different songs requested (there's a lot to choose from), I'm not sure which Sonic song I'll do next but it's one of my favorites to do so it'll definitely show up soon.
So that's the first few I can think of off the top of my head. Are any of these songs you've been wanting to hear? Let me know!
