Oops... Sorry. When I went to delete the "s" from https, I accidentally left that in and deleted the ":" instead. I just fixed it.

OH - for anyone else - this goes nowhere. Don't use this link.
ACTUALLY - it redirects to wix logomaker, hitting the back button it goes to https://10.trackints.com/ .
Is this another one of your traps. JAck?
No. It's not. Wix, as far as I know is a legit website where you can create your own website for "free"... I'm sure there are strings.
"10.trackints.com" looks pretty damn suspicious though.
This really has me curious why the hell you'd be getting to either of those sites from a link here. Do you have malwarebytes installed? You should run a scan and make sure somebody else isn't redirecting you places you aren't trying to go.
Do none of my other videos post for you? That youtube link should work fine. I haven't laid any traps since the Roomba got banned. I certainly wouldn't put it in here with a bunch of friendlies.

SIX: So how on earth did this lead you to finding good video game music?
His was not exactly my kind of music, so I went looking online until I found a LOOOOONG video that I mostly liked. But I got the idea from him.
Oh... lol. Interesting. Thanks for filling in the blanks from A to Zed, because I wasn't following.

As I've mentioned, I really don't listen to music a lot. Usually when I'm doing something tedious that requires my eyes and hands, but not my ears, like kitchen work. So I kind of bumble around and have missed whole decades of music! Which is why I appreciate your choices: they introduce me to music I might not have otherwise known.
I never got into country myself either. My stepdad listened to it but by that point my musical tastes had already been established and Country wasn't working for me.
I did, however, always love this song when it came up on his tape in the pickup truck.

Final Fantasy has too many great songs to list...
A lot of their intense songs for tense parts are great, but my favorite usually is the chill music. You could really just put on all the chill FF music and fall asleep to it.
And I really love how so many talented artists have taken some of my favorite songs from the 80's and 90's that only had the limited capabilities of 8bit and 16bit machines and gave them proper orchestrial scores.
Final Fantasy IV "Boss Theme" ORIGINAL (Super Nintendo 1991):
Final Fantasy IV "Boss Theme" ORCHESTRAL COVER:
======================================================
EVOLUTION OF FINAL FANTASY PROLOGUE
Final Fantasy I "Prologue" ORIGINAL (8bit Nintendo Entertainment System 1986):
Same song as above but used in the 4th game 5 years later...
Final Fantasy IV "Prologue" ORIGINAL (16bit Super Nintendo 1991):
Final Fantasy IV "Prologue" ORCHESTRAL COVER:
======================================================
EVOLUTION OF FINAL FANTASY'S MAYOTA'S CAVE
Final Fantasy I "Mayota's Cave" (Nintendo Entertainment System 1986):
Final Fantasy I (Remake) "Mayota's Cave" (I believe this was a Playstation remake of the game in the early 2000's.)
Final Fantasy I "Mayota's Cave" COOL "TWINSTRUMENTAL" REMAKE:
Lot's of love for these 35 year old tunes.

Pity would be no more,
If we did not MAKE men poor - William Blake
THUGR posts about Putin so much, he must be in love.
Outside of my mother's love of Elvis and rock from the 50s the other music when I was growing up was country. Johnny Cash, Hank Snow, Wilf Carter and the like. My dad liked Wilf Carter and Hank Snow both of whom were Canadian. My mom it was Patsy Cline, Loretta Lyn, Tammy Wynnette, Johnny Cash, Marty Robbins.
Now for myself because I grew up surrounded by it all through high school and into my 20s and 30s, I couldn't stand it. But I started hearing Billy Ray Cyrus then Tim McGraw and decided their stuff wasn't too bad. Also Alabama and Alan Jackson.
As I've said I've been surrounded by it all my life from my mom and a friend of hers with classical. So my own tastes now run from classical to rock with just a tinge of metal.
So, I'm always glad to expand someone's musical knowledge.

Hey Jack - here's what (I think) happened to your link.
My router was in the early stages of what eventually became a catastrophic hardware failure. But for some reason, it was gagging on that link, and only that link, repeatedly doing the same wrong thing and redirecting me through the same wrong series of websites to end up at the same wrong place ...
... until after a few hours the router cascaded through a quick series of more random and global failures into not working at all.
So, that's why it looked like a bad link. (However, I haven't tried it again! just because ... superstitious, I guess.)
And that's why I haven't been here. I just got the new router delivered and set it up, and I'm back!

Welcome back.
That's some weird shit. I don't blame you for not trying it again.
Thanks for the update though.
