DragonForce released Through the Fire and Flames in 2006 to critical acclaim. Many people know Through the Fire and Flames as the playable bonus track in Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock, where it was known as one of the most difficult tracks of the time, even being called the most difficult by Guinness World Records. It has received a legendary status due to its difficulty in Guitar Hero, and endured renewed popularity because of its inclusion in the game.

This awesome impossible piano arrangement remix of Through the Fire and the Flames is one of the most incredible things we've done and we're sure you'll love it. Is it the best impossible piano arrangement ever?

Lyrics:
On a cold winter morning, in the time before the light
In flames of death's eternal reign we ride towards the fight
When the darkness has fallen down, and the times are tough all right
The sound of evil laughter falls around the world tonight

Fighting hard, fighting on for the steel, through the wastelands evermore
The scattered souls will feel the hell bodies wasted on the shores
On the blackest plains in hell's domain, we watch them as they go
In fire and pain, now once again we know

So now we fly ever free
We're free before the thunderstorm
On towards the wilderness our quest carries on
Far beyond the sundown, far beyond the moonlight
Deep inside our hearts and all our souls

So far away we wait for the day
For the lives all so wasted and gone
We feel the pain of a lifetime lost in a thousand days
Through the fire and the flames we carry on

As the red day is dawning
And the lightning cracks the sky
They'll raise their hands to the heavens above
With resentment in their eyes
Running back from the mid-morning light
There's a burning in my heart
We're banished from a time in a fallen land
To a life beyond the stars

In your darkest dreams see to believe
Our destiny is time
And endlessly we'll all be free tonight

And on the wings of a dream, so far beyond reality
All alone in desperation, now the time has gone
Lost inside you'll never find, lost within my own mind
Day after day this misery must go on

So far away we wait for the day
For the lives all so wasted and gone
We feel the pain of a lifetime lost in a thousand days
Through the fire and the flames we carry on

[Guitar solos]

Now here we stand with their blood on our hands
We fought so hard now can we understand
I'll break the seal of this curse if I possibly can
For freedom of every man

So far away we wait for the day
For the lives all so wasted and gone
We feel the pain of a lifetime lost in a thousand days
Through the fire and the flames we carry on

SMB: Actually playing this on the piano with your hands is impossible
That one person who just finished 3 tons of cocaine:

[greyfoxeye]

thanks for letting me know when to activate my star power, they never include it in the sheet music

[noahcaddeo]

Fun fact: when recording TTFAF, the lead guitarist actually broke a string. When playing live and coming to that part in the song he just kicks the guitar really hard and hopes he breaks a string, but it never works.

[TeutonicViking]

The thermal energy created from people managing to play this is enough to make the piano instantly combust into flames.

[kmartwifi]

Fun fact, Herman Li (lead guitarist of DragonForce) loves guitar hero, but he cant beat TTFAF on expert

[missckitty]

Kid: Mom mom guess what I learned on SMB today!
Mom: What did you learn honey?
Kid: *How to kill a piano*

[matthewwatanabe]

Thanks for making this. I feel like the 30 fingered community hasn't been represented enough in music, so we appreciate this.

[TheRealGuywithoutaMustache]

Herman Li's parents: Okay, now play it backwards

[SheetMusicBoss]

Thank you LyricWulf! ❤️ Your editing skills are 💯💯

[stamway]

"I wanna play this!"
My fingers, 2 seconds later:



gone. Reduced to atoms.

[coursaire]

finish this song:
1: grab an octopus.
2: give him 2 extra legs.
3: teach him the song.
4: RAISE HELL ON THE PIANO!!!

Lyrics for anyone interested

On a cold winter morning
In the time before the light
In flames of death's eternal reign
We ride towards the fight
When the darkness has fallen down
And the times are tough alright
The sound of evil laughter falls
Around the world tonight
Fighting hard, fighting on for the steel
Through the wastelands evermore
The scattered souls will feel the hell
Bodies wasted on the shores
On the blackest plains in Hell's domain
We watch them as they go
Through the fire and pain and once again we know
So now we fly ever free
We're free before the thunderstorm
On towards the wilderness
Our quest carries on
Far beyond the sundown
Far beyond the moonlight
Deep inside our hearts and all our souls
So far away we wait for the day
For the lives all so wasted and gone
We feel the pain of a lifetime lost in a thousand days
Through the fire and the flames we carry on
As the red day is dawning
And the lightning cracks the sky
They'll raise their hands to the heavens above
With resentment in their eyes
Running back through the mid morning light
There's a burning in my heart
We're banished from a time in a fallen land
To a life beyond the stars
In your darkest dreams see to believe
Our destiny is time
And endlessly we'll all be free tonight
And on the wings of a dream
So far beyond reality
All alone in desperation
Now the time has gone
Lost inside you'll never find
Lost within my own mind
Day after day this misery must go on
So far away we wait for the day
For the lives all so wasted and gone
We feel the pain of a lifetime lost in a thousand days
Through the fire and the flames we carry on
Woah, woah, whoah
Woah, woah, whoah
Now here we stand with their blood on our hands
We fought so hard, now can we understand
I'll break the seal of this curse if I possibly can
For freedom of every man
So far away we wait for the day
For the lives all so wasted and gone
We feel the pain of a lifetime lost in a thousand days
Through the fire and the flames we carry on

[Cranefluff]

That starpower effect was a nice touch

[pedroaugusto]

Lmao i cracked up at 1:42. He even added star power

[jrexx]

YOU ROCK!!!
Notes Streak:Over 9000
Accuracy:100%

[drewconleymusic]

I cannot believe that whoever notated this has a good enough ear to write down those shred solos. One of my favourite songs ever to be written

[williamP]

Dude that star power at 1:42 really got me. Gave me chills all over.

[ChavvyChannel]

I lost it at 1:40 with the starpower. God I miss this game.

I once saw a guy from the audience go on stage and play this on the hardest level at a live video game music concert. He was sooo close to finishing it; he failed in the last few bars. It was still epic.
