Majora's Mask | Song of Healing for Piano Solo HD

Song of Healing seems to be the song of choice for Majora's Mask fan's. Believe it or not, despite my love for the all-time-classic Ocarina of Time, I was never able to play Majora's Mask! However, my friend insists that I borrow it, enjoy it, and beat it to completion. Who agrees?

As for my arrangement, this was my attempt to keep it to the original in the beginning, until gradually adding more ideas to thicken the texture. You may notice after the second time around there is a big surprise! =D

Raise your hand if you are a Majora's Mask fan! Tell me why you love it, and why I should play it.

Enjoy!

Your Pianist,
Kyle Landry

I was expecting a simple Song of Healing cover. Instead I found a masterpiece.

My mother passed away last year after over a decade of fighting severe illness... I still have nightmares about watching her struggle for her life in that hospital bed. It's taking me a long time to truly accept everything that happened, and I feel like this song helps and expresses that acceptance. Life can be a beautiful, cruel and tragic thing. None of us honestly know why we're here or what happens after death. If you have someone in your life who loves you, please don't take them for granted. Thank you, Kyle Landry, for this amazing rendition.

after 10 years, this is still being the best cover of song of healing out there... truly a masterpiece :(

Anyone else return to this at least several times a year? Best version of the Song of Healing tbh. Seriously brings me to tears when I need this song the most. Thank you, Kyle - you have no idea.

I return to this song when I'm in that season. We've all been to that season. This is me returning to it now. only to listen and remember all of the other times I was at this same video a time before and before. It helps me remember that just how I would return to this video when I was sinking, I could also rise out of whatever I was in at the moment. This video actually heals me. and Just as i'm returning to the video now for healing, I'm sure I will be back. Thank you for this video, Kyle. What was just a simple piano zelda medley turned into one of my major coping mechanics. The power of Youtube. I love you all.

Impossible listen to this and not end up crying lying on the floor. Thank you so much.

The emotional response this song triggers in the minds of many people in the comment section really is a testament as to the power of video games as an art form and means of communication. Even playing this song backwards, it still conveys a message that is (grotesquely, if played backwards) beautiful in a way. You have to stand in awe and what this song- but a pattern of a few simple, repeated notes - does to people. Truly amazing !

It's 02:00 AM and I'm literally crying while listening to this. Nicely done

[theSneakySasquatch]

brought me to my knees crying, literally. one of my very closest friends passed away six months ago. he shot himself. and majoras mask was one of his very favorite games of all time, and this song may have been his favorite.

i subscribe to the theory that this games theme is about finding peace with ones death, and life after it. the battle for internal, spiritual peace. and when i hear this song, i hear that struggle. i hear that melancholy we all feel deep within us. the unrest of things lost, and things unfinished.

but when i hear you play it kyle, it makes me feel that he found peace. And it brings me to my knees knowing that I've lost, but one day i believe ill see him again.

i realize this sounds cliche, and silly. plus I'm a little emotional, so that doesn't help. but i want to say thanks kyle. for playing this song the way it was meant to be played. to heal those with wounds, and sadness. to bring peace, after tragedy. thanks kyle.

This is basically the only thing my heart can relate to right now. Zelda is my favorite game series, brought to me by my grandma. We played every game together, she would watch and help as we both enjoyed the thrill. I'm 25 now and I miss her dearly. Your key strokes help me dearly. I hope you continue on.

[kylewise]

This song is so numbing... Just wish I had the attention span to say how this song makes me feel. It's sad, then happy, and then Kyle messes with our heads and puts kokiri theme in there... ;) It's like losing someone you love more than anything in the world and they're just happy they got the chance to be with you... You're sad but happy that you have the memory of true happiness. Content in your sadness that you once knew happiness.

After 3 years my girlfriend ended our relationship. I am devastated and depressed, almost drop out of every project I was... My life will never be the same, I am scared of the future but then I listened to this song. You touched my heart with your play. I'm still afraid, but now I remember there is a lot to go on with life. This is a really healing song, because it healed me. Thanks a lot.

When you go to the triplet feel at 1:45....geez. One of the coolest things I've ever heard. AMAZING!

[Levhighi]

I was cooking and listening to this song... needless to say. After I was done with the potatoes... This became the Song of Peeling.

[haise]

I love how he plays with passion and energy. It's amazing

[andycizek]

This was stunning. Incredible composition and performance. Bravo.

[kaneda]

3:44 caught way of guard but it somehow blends in with the song perfectly

[fiddlesticksmeow]

I always find the song of healing a bit creepy and sad, and you portrayed that perfectly, I have never seen a pianist as good as you!

[CrimsonOptics]

This piece is absolutely stunning, and it does for me exactly what its canonical purpose is: healing for those in grief. My father died three days ago, and I've felt quite lost since then. I've been trying to write a testimony at his funeral, but words are escaping me. The Song of Healing is quite magical in the fact that it's helping me come to terms with it, even if it's slow. Thank you for posting this. It's been helping me through one of toughest moments in my life.

This is beautiful. Just insanely beautiful. Makes me feel sorry for people who will never understand just how impactful video games can be in one’s life.
