my english teacher played this during class. he's my favorite teacher

"To me, a hero embodies the “virtue” that we all have in our hearts. We all have it, but most of us are too embarrassed or scared to show it. In that sense there’s something childlike about heroism. Heroes are the people who are proud to show that side of themselves to others. They have a lonely existence, and they will bear any burden-even when not being watched over by others-simply because it’s the right thing to do. I like heroes with that childlike purity and idealism. Someone who can still believe in what’s right, even when others says “that’s not realistic.” I think when a person encounters a hero like that in art, they can learn a lot from them. That’s the kind of hero I wanted to create in Mega Man." -Akira Kimatura Designer, planner, and programmer for Mega Man 1.

Nostalgia+Orchestra = probably the strongest combo in the world.

No one told me what I was about to hear in 4:23. I was unable to contain my tears. Those where many. That was my childhood right there. Swedish musicians gave me the greatest gift of them. Thank you very much.

Megaman has one of the best video game musics of all time!! This is every 80's/90's kids childhood!!

my god this is awesome! Finally a good orchestral version of megaman!

Not just one of the best Mega Man orchestras... This damn near beats many of the other orchestras I've ever heard. The upbeat and light tones of it just gives it a magical feeling. Makes me proud to live in an era where games existed.

I'm 18, I didn't grow up with NES and SNES games, but I know excellence when I hear it.

Im crying .

Elec Man's theme at 6:35 gave me the biggest chills I think I've ever felt and nearly brought me to tears. I love this so much

I love that they included friggin' Top Man. Nobody's favorite robot master, but always been one of my favorite themes.

sounds like the greatest movie I've ever played. 😋

When it broke into Elecman's theme all triumphantly, I had a nerdgasm and teared up.

I hope the original composers get to hear these and realize how insane these tunes were. 😍

Live last night in Norrköping! Spark Man and Elec Man 🎉

When people believe Megaman scores can't compete with Final Fantasy, then you show them this.

I don't think 80s child me could ever comprehend that one day such an amazing orchestra could play these songs and give me chills.

2:45 I'm crying tears of Joy...THE FLUTES ARE BEAUTIFUL!

This video holds the record for the longest period of time I've felt goosebumps

most of these guys have probably never played a video game in their lives, and yet here they are. making gamer's hearts sway and swoon. what a world we live in...

I'm so glad I live in a world where this is possible.

Outstanding performance. Elecman's part legit gave me chills.

This is probably the best orchestrated rendition of Mega Man soundtracks. Video Games Live seemed like a rock concert rather than orchestrated music, compared to this.

The Elec Man part gives me chills every time.

The Top Man Stage is just beautiful.

Nothing like going down the rabbit hole and finding a gem like this

OMG THANK YOU KZfaq RECOMENDATIONS! I SMILED THE WHOLE TIME!

how would I go about legally marrying this video?

This is my favorite thing they've done! Simply amazing! I'd love to hear a Shovel Knight one!

4:35 Pure passion from the conductor.

Superb orchestral arrangement of NES Megaman chiptunes by Andreas Hedlund. He really told a story here. Unbelievable. I'm Old-School, so this suite is simply MAGICAL for me. You don't understand what it means for a child of that generation to hear these early console themes skill-fully woven together from many games and over many years in a superb orchestral medley. It strikes a very sentimental nerve. Orchestrator/Arranger Andreas Hedlund deserves an Order of Nostalgia for this work. Full props to the musicians and conductor as well.

I keep coming back to this, it's actually my favourite orchestrated music for a game ever, it's SO good!

Without a doubt the best Mega Man orchestral cover I have ever heard. Perfect. Impressive. Magnificent. Tear worthy. It's also a crying shame that, like the rest of the world, they ignored everything but 2 and 3. That also made Elecman's theme's appearance so much more special. I'd probably give my entire life for this same thing done to 6, 5 and 4.

this is a perfect Megaman medley

This suite not only brings back childhood memories, but gives you a feeling of "epicness". You can just hear that this was written and arranged by the original music composers (who are heroes of my youth, brought me to making music, and can‘t be sufficiently credited!). No one else who covered/orchestrated these themes has ever really understood them. The result is just PERFECTION!

this brings tears to my eyes.7 maverick robots disliked this....

Absolutely Phenomenal. Magical. Whimsical.

The Elec Man theme just gives me chills. So fitting as the finale!!!

I am absolutely impressed by this arrangement because some of the song selections I feel are underrated but they really sat and listened to all of these soundtracks and knew how to arrange this . I know people only think there was 1 original Mega Man song but they threw in that final Wily boss fight music in for a bit . I am still so so impressed by the use of the Mega Man 3 Wily stages and also Top Man and Spark Man’s levels . This still gives me chills and makes me cry as a very long time Mega Man fan this made me so proud ❤️

I was just hit with a huge-ass wave of nostalgia. This is honestly one of the best Mega Man orchestral performances I've ever listened to. I love all the songs featured in this performance, but it really would've made my day if they did Air Man's theme, or Galaxy Man.

Legit one of the best VGM arrangement medleys I've ever heard. They make the themes fit so naturally with the orchestral sound, you'd think they were originally made for it

Maaaaaaan This Just Solidified That My Childhood Was Beautiful

4:23 .... holy shit

Best performed melody in 2016 so far!

Sparkman has always been a personal favorite of mine. So exquisite hearing it played by an orchestra. Take one of my fav MM songs and make it better in every way....why, thank you!!!

dude megaman music its just so awesome and emotive, i think i was in tears after hearing this. fills u with the spirit of the blue bomber

I never knew Elec Man's theme could sound so grandiose. Absolutely breathtaking.

Elecman always gives me the chills 🥺

素晴らしい演奏です。ありがとう。

I remember this games... simple ones, with just a few buttons... a catchy tone in the background... and yet still I don't find other games that make me feel like the past. Is not just the music, not just the game play, not just the story, is all of it unite to make you feel you are in the adventure, you are in other world, where you are a hero... that details are long gone.

OMG Elecman'S Theme!!! I LOVE YOU!!!! THANK YOU THANK YOU

that brass section coming in at the beginning of elecman was EPIC!!!!!

Voy a ser sincero la verdad me dejó sin palabras la canción, no puedo creer lo hermosa que está la orquesta

UNREAL!this piece moves me to tears! The Dr. Wily entrance to the castle music is beyond words can say! My God!!

These are tears of joy on my face...... know that.

Spark Man's stage music has always been one of my favorites. I doubt any gamer or even the composers themselves ever imagined that the incredible music from these games, released in the early adolescence of the video game industry, would ever receive such a wonderful orchestral treatment as they are here.

Dude... i'm crying :'( THIS is art

I lost it, hearing Elec Man's music...that was so beautiful.

This is incredible. They rearranged it so well! I think they really did justice to the classic tunes.

So happy video game soundtracks are being recognized for their impact on culture and music. The themes from these games are brilliant.

These suites should be in the Mega Man movie

God this whole thing was done so well, the Wily Stage 1 theme got me excited, and the way the conductor was grooving... Just showed the passion that goes into these.

If a Mario Movie style Mega Man movie ever gets made, the soundtrack better be like this masterpiece

How exciting. This was a joy to hear. Oh what it must have been like live.

This is one of those [rare] moments when it's extremely satisfying to be a geek... ☺

the arranger did an awesome job on this

Wow! Easily one of my favorite videos of all time!!! Incredible musical arrangement of instruments but also amazing because of an amazing original tune! There’s a pattern with Japanese music in that this can easily be like a Miyazaki film score…moving and emotional somehow 🤯

This is what we heard as 6 year old kids as we played. Imagination and excitement took hold as we became the Blue Bomber and the music transformed us to a world of fighting robots and saving mankind. Beautifully done. Thank you all for making this possible. And thank you fellow gamers for knowing games and their music are pure, uncut, and magical art.

MORE! PLEASE! MORE!

I didn't expect to be so overjoyed to hear Elecmans theme... but it really was the highlight in an already REALLY strong piece!

this is amazing 😍

I've never cried so much of joy in my life

I legit cried nonstop tears of joy while watching this.

gotta love the "story telling"style of this composition. presentation, knot,resolution. Awesome.

This is the first time I applauded anything Ive seen on tv and Im almost 40

Elecman's theme will always bring a tear to my eye. If I was to save someones life or save the day at a clutch moment the music at 6:36 would be my theme song.

Eu amo as músicas desse jogo, desde criança, quando deixava a tela de tema tocar várias e várias vezes... Muito lindo este vídeo S2

I literally listen to this every day or every other day! Feels like the music I loved in Magaman is validated. I used the keep the screen on and just let the music roll many times, especially the Wiley stage music. ahhh so satisfying to know other people loved the music.

Elecman's theme sent me to tears... Manly tears were shed

Goosebumps every ten seconds, tears in my eyes. EPICNESS on another level.

5:46, Lord Gaben! Is that you?

Still the best music, arrangement, orchestration and performance ever. 😍

Wow this was epic never thought mega man music could become even more epic👏👏👏

Going 100% by memory here, but I think its accurate: 0:13 / MM3 / Title Screen 1:28 / MM2 / Flash Man 1:55 / MM3 / Top Man 2:42 / MM3 / Spark Man 3:25 / MM2 / Stage Select 3:39 / MM3 / Final Wily Stage 4:07 / MM2 / Stage Clear 4:22 / MM2 / Wily's Castle 1 5:50 / MM3 / Yellow Devil 6:35 / MM1 / Elec Man 7:46 / MM3 / Weapon Get

My god, this might be the best thing I've ever stumbled upon on KZfaq....

Its amazing that so many elderly are willing to play a soundtrack, well, a game! Its awesome to me!

This brought tears to my eyes, so beautiful to see these musicians.

imagine a real good movie with this music!!! the best of the best

God bless all

This is sure bring back memory! It's not just game music anymore.

Hell yeah. It's so cool to see these people at the top of their craft fully realizing these pieces that were designed around the limitations of 8-bit. And to see them fully realized. It's just so nice to see video game recognized as art. Those composers were so crazy creative in the limitations they had, and Mega Man is, in my opinion, the apex of video game music. Mega Man, no matter how good the game was in the series, the music always just nailed spot on.

Best orchestra I've ever heard. Honestly.

This is perfection..

Amazing!

AWESOME!

Looks like I gotta change my pants now

This is amazing. I'm crying.

amazing!!

awesome !!
