Great Fairy’s Fountain absolutely sounds inspired by Bach. Credit to the guy for knowing the OG! He might’ve been receptive to learning about Koji Kondo, but it ended up kinda awkward. “It’s a famous composer named Zelda,” is a pretty dismissive answer. You’re just assuming he won’t want to search it up later. Even old folks have heard of Legend of Zelda (Think Robin Williams.) So he could’ve been feeling like Boomer hate and just moved on. Just respond with confidence! “Legend of Zelda, baby! By the incredible composer, Koji Kondo!” or “Ocarina of Time, a true work of art in video games. You learn and play music as a core mechanic of the game!” That’s the way to do it, and warm people up to the merits in our favorite works.

I love when some people in the background hear the iconic notes and just stop immediately and be like "is that... it can't be? holy crap, i think it is" you can just see them realizing it lol

‘Is that Bach?’ No, it’s Koji Kondo. 😂 I used to play Zelda a Link to the Past on my SNES back in 1992 and have not really played another Zelda game until Tears of the Kingdom. I almost cried the first time I heard The Fairy Fountain theme playing in Tears of the Kingdom. Obviously it sounded very modern with real musical instruments but the melody was the same and immediately took me back almost 30 years. Back to my bedroom and to a better time when I was just a kid in school playing on his SNES. Very nostalgic. I love this song. Thank you for playing it.

Though at least many will still somewhat appreciate movie score composers like John Williams and Hans Zimmer, but video games usually seem so ignored. Like guys, the composer doesn't have to have died over 100 years ago to qualify as a great composer.

She also loves to make people happy so much, but she sees that someone's boss is really mean, so she takes action herself.

Early video game music and bach are actually pretty similar. Due to the technical limitations of the hardware, composers used a music technique called counterpoint to create rich sounding textures using only a few voices. Counterpoint was kind of perfected by Bach in the baroque period, and video game composers often cite him as a huge inspiration.

Thanks for this. This was incredibly nostalgic. This game (ocarina of time) made my childhood so much better. I moved a lot as a kid, and when I discovered this game as a kid, I didn't have any friends to play with in the new neighborhood. I spent all summer playing this game and exploring. It seemed so massive at the time. I'm 30 years old and I can't explain the feeling I get when I hear this music. It's just awesome.

great fairy fountain made me cry because nostalgia and emotion... thank you so much for this video

The intro to Ocarina of Time always gives me chills because it reminds me of such a great time when I was playing it. I turned the game on, listened to the intro, and couldn't keep from smiling and wondering what adventures lay ahead.

This is my second attempt watching this video. At my first attempt, Joe started playing Great Fairy Fountain, and I burst into tears. Ocarina of Time lives in my heart dearly as it is my first VG to ever watch and play as my late brother owned a N64. I would watch him play for hours and sneak on to play my own save. I tried to be sneaky, but he obviously knew as he saw my save. Thank you Joe for showing others the beautiful music from OoT.

Legend of Zelda songs are so beautiful, I'm not surprised people get them confused with classical composers works.

I'm terrified of lonely pianos in public places. Really want to play them, but at the same time I don't, plus there's always someone who actually plays right and takes the seat. Great music from composer "Zelda". 🤣

I'm from Mexico and a big zelda fan, I've been to Bristol 3 times for work and from the beginning of the video I identified the place!! Everyday I went to that Tesco, it would have been great to come out of the Tesco and listen to you play those Zelda songs, I would have stayed all day

I'm a full grown adult now, but one of my earliest memories is getting a N64 for Christmas and playing Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time with my 2 older brothers. Any time I hear the Zelda music i get hit by a wave of nostalgia, Joe, your rendition's of the Zelda music are amazing! Keep it up! I hope you do some more at different spots! While I love Anime, and that's what made me find your channel, I think the Zelda music has a much broader appeal to the public in general while doing this live outside. Little Trivia, did you know Robin Williams the famous and unfortunately deceased actor/comedian/legend loved the Zelda series so much he named his daughter Zelda! That is all, have a great day whomever read this.

I think that feeling is intentional and tied to the origin of the song in the game. You get the song by approaching a man in the windmill as adult Link and he shares with you the song a boy had played long ago to make the windmill spin faster. Go back to the past and play the song there as child Link and you literally become the origin for that song. Which I assume ties into the song itself looping back to its own beginning. At least that's how I've always interpreted it. It's a genius piece on its own but for me became so much better with the in-world lore from the game.

That one guy: "Is that Bach?" 🤣 Reminds me of one day when I was whistling Saria's Song from Ocarina of Time and my dad asked if it was Jupiter the Bringer of Jollity from Holst's the Planets. After listening to them back-to-back I actually can completely understand why he asked me that. The two songs sound surprisingly similar.

The legend of Zelda has some of the greatest iconic music in video game history.

I learned to play the piano because of the Zelda soundtrack. Seeing this in my feed instantly got me back in the mood to start practicing. Fun fact: Song of Storms, Clock Town, and The Title theme of Ocarina of time were the first 3 songs I ever performed on Piano. Seeing this video sent me down a road of nostalgia for a multitude of reasons. Love your videos man, you inspire me to practice and one day I'd like to do what you do and spread inspiration the way you have to myself and many others.

I feel so honoured to have Ocarina of Time be my first real video game experience. It was how I learned to read 😊 I remember my brother setting up my new N64 and asking if I could read yet haha because Zelda games are good for those who like to read. These songs are so precious to me.
