Awesome, Youtube EXPLODED!

You heard me right, Youtube exploded. No, I don't mean that there is a smoldering crater where Youtube, USA used to be, I mean the website got an update a few days ago in an awesome way. If you watch a video now on youtube, it'll be in wiiiiiidescreeeeeeen! They added a little to each side of all youtube videos, and for most video's that means that there is just some black at the edges, but some video's have embraced the stretch. When I first saw Youtube's new look, I literally said, "Whoa, Youtube exploded!"

You should go check it out.

This Dark Knight Spoof is Awesome!

The Dark Knight is an Awesome movie. Sometimes, awesome things are easy to poke fun at. This is one of those times. It includes spoilers if you haven't seen it yet.

(Warning: It cusses a swear)


This is the last of my pre-done posts. November has more posts in it than any other by now. And I thought it would suffer :P

Final Fantasy Main Theme is Awesome!

This is the main theme of the Final Fantasy series. I love this song and it fills me with happy.

I hope that these past 13 days I have been able to teach you somewhat about Video Games. They aren't just about mindless Zombie killing or blatantly breaking the law. Some of them are, but there are many games that have a lot of thought and time put into it to make it something amazing, and yes, even awesome. The Final Fantasy games fall into this category of video games.



They guy who cuts in at the middle is Nobuo Uematsu, the guy who wrote all of this music.

Cloud Smiles is Awesome!

This song is from Final Fantasy 7: Advent Children, which was a movie. It is still Final Fantasy music though.

The Maria and Draco Opera is Awesome!

The next song is a freakin' opera! An OPERA! In a video game (Final Fantasy 6 to be exact)! Its called Draco and Maria. Youtube has a time limit so it had to be split into two videos.

Final Fantasy 1,2, and 3 Medley is Awesome!

This song is a medley of the songs from the first three games. Is it me, or does part of this song sound like a Disney song?

The Theme of Love is Awesome!

The next song is the Theme of Love from Final Fantasy 4. It's a very touching and beautiful song played for the characters Cecil and Rosa, who love each other very much.

Main Theme of Final Fantasy 7 is Awesome!

The next is the main theme of Final Fantasy 7. Its a very long and lovely song and I love it.

The Main Theme of Final Fantasy 5 is Awesome!

The next song is the Main Theme of Final Fantasy 5. It plays when you turn the game on and makes you excited to play it. About two minutes into this version is where the song starts in the game. They added a full two minutes onto the start of it for some reason, but thats okay, I still love it.

You're Not Alone is Awesome!

I looooove the next song. It is called You're Not Alone (the video says its "Not Alone" but I know better). This one is from Final Fantasy 9 and is played when the main character, Zidane, feels hopeless and alone. This song plays and all of his friends come to him and try to convince him that he isn't alone. I can't listen to this song without getting chills down my spine, I love it so.

The Oath is Awesome!

The next song is called The Oath from Final Fantasy 8. This song plays when the main character, Squall, is giving a speech to his comrades right before an intense battle. He knows that they are scared, he is too, but he knows that if they don't go through with this battle, that Galbadia will overthrough the world (he didn't even know the half of it). This song just makes that part so much better.

Aerith's Theme is Awesome

The next song is special because of when it was played in game. During Final Fantasy 7, a character named Aeris (Aerith in Japan) dies. She is a main character and to see her die in the way she did left many in tears. We were dumbfounded. That wasn't supposed to happen! This music played during that scene, which made it sadder. Just listen to it!

Ronfaure is Awesome

The next song is called Ronfaure (don't ask me how to pronounce it) from Final Fantasy 11. I've never played Final Fantasy 11, but that doesn't mean that the song isn't great.

At Zanarkand is Awesome!

The next song on the Tour de Japon is called "At Zanarkand" and is one of my favorite songs. It is already a beautiful song, and this only makes it better. Hope you like it.

The Tour de Japon is Awesome!

Okay, now for a more serious post. The Tour de Japon was a concert in Japan that played Orchestrated versions of a few Final Fantasy songs. They are all beautiful, and you should listen to them. There are thirteen songs that I will post about over the thirteen days. ^_^

The first is the opening to Final Fantasy 7 which was called Bombing Mission.

Youtube is Awesome! ...But there is a problem...

It's actually a little sad how many of the things this guy says are true about me.

Ignorance is Bliss is an Awesome Youtube Video

By now I should have started on my Novel, and if I haven't, shame on me!

Ignorance is Bliss is a song by a group named Jellyfish. Yep, I've never heard of them either. Someone decided to make a music video out if it, and it turned out awesome!
