I wouldn't usually create a thread for one of his songs, but this is absolutely insane. The amount of work this must have taken is mind boggling.

Karsticles · Sep 8, 2014

I love this guy! Listening now!

GulAtiCa · Sep 8, 2014

That is excellent.

Gormless Noodle · Sep 8, 2014

This guy is da shit, seriously, so is his crazy-ass beard. His cat also deserves special mention. Great work as per usual, though it lacks a bit of the oomph that made the original so great.

Ferrio · Sep 8, 2014

Buh buh buh buh

Magnus · Sep 8, 2014

Impressive. God damn.

JB2448 · Sep 8, 2014

Though not as technical as his arrangement of "Mt. Pyre Exterior", this is still absolutely excellently done.

Holy Order Sol · Sep 8, 2014

Amazing, but I don't think I could handle this guy staring at me with those eyes. XD

Manu · Sep 8, 2014

Holy shit. He's always great but he knocked it out of the park with this one.

Absolutely amazing.

Sophia · Sep 8, 2014

There's like 17 or 18 different versions of him in the video. I think that says how absurd this is from a technical level. o_o

Doctor_Thomas · Sep 8, 2014

Absolutely amazing.

I also completely forgot Sephiroth has a move that destroys the entire Solar System.

Minions · Sep 8, 2014

Great cover! I love all of his covers and occasionally watch his live streams when it plays random games. Pretty cool dude.

Yoshichan · Sep 8, 2014

Love the guy. This song in particular is one of his best work.

Ambience7817x · Sep 8, 2014

All the work he put in this shows, and it paid off. Its incredible. Easily one of my favorites

Imm0rt4l · Sep 8, 2014

I think this is his most impressive one yet.

sixteen-bit · Sep 8, 2014

A true artist

Lulubop · Sep 8, 2014

Dancing mad next please, all 16 or however long minutes of it.

atr0cious · Sep 8, 2014

I didn't see a thread for this, and I don't want to hijack this one, but I just found this, and I think this should get some attention as well:

http://sammusmusic.bandcamp.com/album/another-m

It's a rap album done in the first person by Sammus as Samus. Think MIA with mcchris beats. Really well done. I'd make a thread but I'm on mobile.

Soma · Sep 8, 2014

Damn, great rendition as always.

Dude always seems like the nicest guy on his streams.

Chocolate & Vanilla · Sep 8, 2014

Very impressive

TyrantGuardian · Sep 8, 2014

The only thing I don't like about this is some of his pronounciation of the latin parts. Fucking crazy aside from that, god damn!

VanillaCakeIsBurning · Sep 8, 2014

One of his best.

How many years later and I'm still finding out there were more summons in this game that I didn't get.

jman2050 · Sep 8, 2014

Excellent video as always.

If he can somehow get a Dancing Mad video out he'll be my hero.

Wyndstryker · Sep 8, 2014

This is easily one of his best ones yet.

manzoman96 · Sep 8, 2014

One of his best.

Sinatar · Sep 8, 2014

I guess we know why he hasn't put anything out in awhile, this probably took forever to do.

That's what I've been waiting for as well. One Winged Angel was also on my list of songs I most wanted him to cover.

Easy_D · Sep 8, 2014

Call me a nagging nagger but god damn. The soft R's ruined it for me.

Einhander · Sep 8, 2014

Spectacular rendition. He honored it splendidly.

Oh, and the "solar system destroying" ability is funny. The fucking sun is like 20 feet away from the party, and they survive from that. JRPG logic is cute.

meltingparappa · Sep 8, 2014

Someone slap me if I'm completely wrong, but didn't he post a video showing that what he does is basically sample his own voice and then plays them via a midi track?

So he's not actually singing each note like you'd expect from what you expect from a college or barbershop acapella group, and he's more or less 'lipsyncing' the sequenced tracks in the video.

Which hey, more power to him since it keeps his output pretty steady, but I think calling it acapella is very misleading.

Arion · Sep 8, 2014

Incredible. This is easily his best work to date.

Jesus Christ, that is insane.

Timeaisis · Sep 8, 2014

That was great, but I still like his take on Spark Mandrill best. Those drum hints, man.

I'm pretty sure that's only what some people think he does. I mean, that wouldn't even make sense, it'd be a million times more work to do all that than it is to just sing the parts and clean it up in post-production.

Brazil · Sep 8, 2014

Smooth McGroove's is probably my favorite channel on YouTube.

Seriously. This one is perfect.

Still one of my favs as well!

Nohar · Sep 8, 2014

If a TvTropes troper is reading me, I think it's high time to deify him and add him to the Music Pantheon.

Gosh, that was awesome.

I like this one too.

My favorite has to be his version of Corridors of Time from Chrono Trigger.

majik13 · Sep 8, 2014

watching a 2nd time, childhood mems...

sappyday · Sep 8, 2014

He just reached 1 mill subscribers. Well earned. Should have a lot more.

I still love his rendition of Ice Cap Zone and Issac Battle Theme more than the original.

Aesthet1c · Sep 8, 2014

Love this guys videos. Listening now.

Diablohead · Sep 8, 2014

Is this his biggest one yet? really good job.

Don't feel bad, his Genesis videos still sound somewhat off to me because the FM synth style sound seems to be the one thing he has trouble adapting to an acapella style. But hey that's just me.

Sydle · Sep 8, 2014

Highly impressive. Makes me want to play FFVII again.

I stumbled across the guy on Twitch and thought he was a bit eccentric. I had no idea he did this kind of stuff. Will take a look at his other stuff.

kewlmyc · Sep 8, 2014

Always been a fan but this is his best one by far. Fantastic.

mocolostrocolos · Sep 8, 2014

Internet Jesus never disappoints.

bigbaldwolf86 · Sep 8, 2014

That was impressive.

jacksepticeye · Sep 8, 2014

I was wondering if he was ever gonna do it, this was awesome

I love his channel

Lee Chaolan · Sep 8, 2014

Haha, Groovin'.

Sadist · Sep 8, 2014

Goddamn

This is amazing.

And they made him a Lord of Cinder. Not for virtue, but for might. Such is a lord, I suppose. But here I ask. Do we have a sodding chance?
