The Final Fantasy 7 ost has long been one of my favorite video game soundtracks. The darkness. The brooding. It has such a unique vibe. Nobuo Uematsu's use of synths along with the traditional strings creates a powerful twisted dystopian soundscape that I've always felt stands out from a lot of other final fantasy soundtracks. I figured, for the remake, I'll put out a couple tunes. This is the first of the set : )
If you want more video game covers and original compositions on the classical guitar like this one, TABS, and general acoustic remix shredding, this is the place spot for all your video game guitar covers needs. Smack a sub. Smack a bell. Smack yourself.

guitar!
That guitar is loaded with materia. Excellent.
That would be a sick sticker to put on a guitar
Yeah, probably Knights of the Round
I think he get 6 slot for the materia
That's a nice *Fire* materia I can sense
Yes! You can see clearly it's got one slot on center. Curently he got "ART" equipped. So much art and feel this guy puts in playing. Awesome job!
Damn, his lamps even run on Mako energy!
When I read "Mako Reactor Theme" I thought, how on earth could he transcribe that to guitar?! Dang man that was so cool!!
I was skeptical, also. Now I walk around barefoot on account of my fucking socks being blown off. 3rd pair this week...sigh...
This makes me want to replay FF7 for like, the 60th time
Well you know what remake is out today...
Original is so good.
zephyrmop when I saw this comment I watched like 3 hours of gameplay of the remake and damnit i think I have to buy it now, there goes my month lol
Can someone please help me, I've never played any ff game tbh, is ff7 a good game to start with? And what other ff games could be played now
@@pawankumaryadav387 there is no continuity between any of the games unless theyre direct sequels.
IE FF10-2 or FF13-2 for example. If one catches your eye play it. Theyre all good launch points.
Honestly, one of the most memorable soundtracks in the series. It's just so somber and kind of has influences based on what the reactor really symbolizes.
Genuienly one of the sickest things I’ve ever heard. Never stop doing what you do man, always look forward to your videos.
Thorin Bullen true that! I love this guy. I’ve been watching him play for a while, ever since he played medleys with the other gentleman, and he’s always just so into what he’s doing, and it’s beautiful. Keep it up, we love what you do!
He's sick? I hope he gets better soon.
This guy are sick?
Listen to Sithu Aye's Double Helix. They NEED to collaborate, dude!
I really, really appreciate the green lighting you chose. Bathed in Mako is a good look for you brother
Never thought I needed something that much in my life
The 2 people that disliked this are Shinra and Sephiroth
It would also be absolutely incredible if you did something from "The Secret of Mana"
I second that Secret of Mana suggestion.
Ice palace
Prophecy if its Secret of Mana
@@JasonSmith-os6en I feel like that song would be better suited to electric
I just went through the whole soundtrack, and I think the only one that's suited to solo classical guitar that hasn't been done to death is I Won't Forget
You're Literally Giving My FfVii Flashbacks.
You're on another level man.
Level 7, to be specific.
FF VII in my opinion has one of the most epic soundtracks on the games' world ever, that one is one of many of my favorites. You've approached with such respect and did a pretty good job! Well done friend.
"Special thanks to me." -- Sam Griffin, 2020
ライフストリームみたいなライトが楽曲と合ってて
とても素敵です
Whoa. You’re right.
That’s insanely cool.
I’d love to see a reaction to this from Nobuo Uematsu.
Probably manly tears of respect and admiration.
Mowgli G I also would like to see MaximilianDood’s reaction too
I guarantee both Max and NU have watched Sam play.
That is just amazing!! I could feel your passion.
This is one of my favorote covers of yours! I've listen to it over and over. The repeated crescendo strumming of that one low bass note gives me goosebumps every time!
Glad I'm not the only one that's always read "mako" as "may-ko"
I'm glad you chose to cover this one. One of my favorites from the original! Very nice finger work
That raw muted repeating low E that you play (at the start, and then multiple times throughout) sounds even better than in the new remake of this song.
I love it. Gives me feels.
The Remake OST over-complicated things, losing it's emotional impact, which is why this simple cover sounds more powerful.
Low C! ; )
@@SamGriffinGuitar you playing this in drop c? or c standard
He must be an Ancient. Playing that guitar as if magic comes from the tips of his fingers. Beautiful!!!
I love this song in any version , this is absolutely lovely
The dynamics are on fucking point. It sounds automated. Holy shit.
The intensity... Pretty sure Sam just keeps getting better
Too beautiful!
Literally just hopped off the playstation ... i’m loving this game so far!!
Thanks for saying Mako correctly at the end lol
Duuude, this song fits an acoustic guitar so well and you couldn't have done better with it. This is awesome. 10/10
First playthrough I pronounced it in my head as MAYKO. My brother would always laugh when I read shit like that with my prepubescent vocabulary. So much of the humour and depth of the story went over my head back then, but yet made such a lasting emotional impact that rewards revisiting. Amazing arrangement. Well done bro!
That intro leaves my brain filling in all the background orchestra with no effort.
Amazing. I have no words. I want you to put out the entire FF7 soundtrack like that
This and anxious heart are two examples of excellent covers. Way better than the originals. I would’ve never even attempted a cover of them since they never really struck me that hard in game. Those two covers make me appreciate the originals more. Sweet job!
ff7 好きです。この曲choiceするのはマニアックだ!
This is INCREDIBLE! I never thought this song could be played this well and sound this good on a guitar. You are a spectacular classical guitar player.
Love the Mako Green Lamp colour
Nobuo uematsu is an amazing composer, his work on Final Fantasy is what got me to play piano. Thanks for your rendition my friend, it's great stuff.
"special thanks to me" hahaha :D yes, you are killing it, sir
I started playing FFVII on ps1 for the trillionth time last week. Made me realise that it's probably not long before humanity is living in a slum underneath a technocratic pizza.
え、すごい。完成度半端ない。
This guy has got some of those Jenova cells... very cool playing
Moar liek MANKO reactor theme, m i rite? Seriously though, tough song to adapt to a singular, analog instrument, but it came out really well; awesome job!
You're making Nobuo Uematsu proud.
Its so nice to hear this be the cover. So many have done Bombing Mission. This is just incredible.
Underrated track from the game that you don't usually see covered or remixed by the community. Great job and excellent playing as usual.
one my favorites from FFVII, just dripping with atmosphere, and interestingly it's the official theme song to making spaghettios
The slide up part was so sick dude. Well done. Great vid.
No way. That was an amazing work. Excellent dynamic
This is both beautiful and ominous, I love it.
this is so awesome on multiple levels! never expected to ever listen to a guitar cover of the mako reactor theme. good job!!
Hit me right in the nostalgia
A MIDI sound from the psx age on 1997 now on the Guitar! Awesome👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I can’t believe how impassioned this is. This is amazing.
That was nuts
Guys if ur a true FF7 fan go ahead an leave some MATERIA in the comments. Give the vid a BUSTER SWORD up. If you subscribe it will be sure to LIMIT BREAK my happiness level : D
なんだ ただの天才か
This is so beyond amazing. I fucking love the arpeggiated section at 1:30. Totally captures the feel of the original.
That comment at the end touched my soul! Mako with a long A! Yes!
Goosebumps when the main melody played! 😱
Literally got chills @2:00 mark.
Man, incredible arrangement and performance as always! Really shows off your dynamic control!
Thanks for playing the song you requested! You have good taste :)
Great cover, Sam. I can't think of a better way to commemorate the new release than listening to this version.
At the end you got it. I saw you doing great covers of FFVII, this is one of the most difficult to capture, you really done it
Sick arrangement. I love this theme and you nailed it.
literally chills at the start.
Dang dude, you really know how to capture the whole atmosphere into your arrangements
I love it when smart covers make you realize things about the original song
Sometimes you don't realize how beautiful songs are until you hear someone solo it
This song is so heavy man, beautiful rendition!!!
that gave me chills
Definitely something worth waking up at 5am for. This is perfect.
Sweet...that really is impressive. He is really powerful on those strings. Gives me a new appreciation for that tune. Then at the end...he drops the bomb! Wow...great job.
My god your fingers strike with such perfect force. Truly impressive.
I tried to do this not long ago, but the Dynamics at the beginning were really really hard because it needed to sound kinda like an echo, and YOU GOT IT LIKE NOTHING 😍😍 This is why you're a true pro, keep up the good work I love the videos ♥️😁
This is one of your most impressive ones yet.
How am I supposed to add a public comment when I want to say that this version is so f***ing beautiful? Fucking beautiful song man! Fucking beautiful....
That guitar is definitely triple growth
Good control over dynamics and overall fine arrangement decisions. LIKE
This is amazing!!!!!!! You have to do all the songs!!!!!
Perfect song to choose!
Amazing as always... Can't wait for the cover album with the Danster!
Call him sephiroth. He killed it. Awesome shit dude
This is incredible. Never thought this song would work on guitar. You continue to surprise me. 10/10
I could listen to a whole album of these
Goosebumps. Hauntingly beautiful song.
Absolute legend
渋い選曲。good choice.
I just made a face of disgust, that's how good this is. I loved every second of it, thank you for making this vid !!!
Awesome job! Especially the simultaneous melodies at 0:57, which I never figured out how to replicate on solo guitar. I love the new remake soundtrack but I wish they kept that part!!!
wow, never thought i'd hear this on a solo guitar. Well played sam. Even despite the edting, you might actually be the best guitar player in the world
Not putting Sam down coz he is a beast on guitar, but check out Tommy Emmanuel if you want to see one of the best finger players
Check out Estas Tonne
What do you mean despite the editing!? His editing is great!
@@thejonguy3248 well, my point is, the audio in the video isnt one take, its put together basically
Oh I see.
this is so good im about to replay ff7 just cause of this video
All I can say is wow!
Masterfully arranged my dude, masterfully. You are honestly one of the greatest acoustic guitar players I've ever had the pleasure of listening to. Like Kyle Gass levels of awesome.
Officially re downloading OG ff7 after hearing this God damn beautiful gem!!!! *inserts savage materia*
I must have forgotten how epic this song is.
One of my favorite songs from the game, even better on guitar!
You’ve got me wanting ego back and play it again
Just incredible! Makes me feel so nostalgic, I love it!
Awesome SAM !!! You never cease to amaze me. What's it like to be able to play anything you want?!!! You must walk around with a hard on all the time lol!!!!
Sir. You are a beast and a raging psychopath! What an amazing cover! That guitar should be ultimate weapon!
Brilliant rendition, really captures the tension beautifully
Awesome!!!! I can't stop to listen
