Something to Protect (Final Fantasy IX) - GaMetal Remix

We're fighting for Alexandria alongside General Beatrix and Steiner for this remix of Something to Protect (aka Protecting My Devotion) from Final Fantasy IX!

I've been seeing quite a few Playstation-era Final Fantasy requests lately (which makes me really happy), so for my first Final Fantasy IX remix, we're going to pay tribute to one of gamings most badass female characters: Beatrix.

Something to Protect is a rearrangement of Beatrixs theme Rose(s?) of May. I've also incorporated some elements from Beatrixs battle theme (The Wavering Blade, or Sword of Doubt, these FF9 song names are all over the place) into this remix.

I'm sure I'll do more FF9 in the near future. Till then, enjoy! :)

You have SO got to do Dark Messenger! The almighty Kuja shall not be ignored!

[PunkDisciple]

Love FFIX. It's such an underrated game that has fantastic music

[hogoototwilightian]

Loss of me, Rose of May. Protecting my devotion, Something to protect.

Either way. FF9 is godlike, and Beatrix is probably my favorite character arc in it.

Also, RUN FOR YOUR LIVES! LAVOS OVERSLEPT 20 YEARS AND GAMETAL WOKE HIM UP WITH HIS SICK GUITAR RIFFS! THE END IS NIGH!

[ChristopherMoom]

This channel's covers are definitely Something to Protect

[Hypercecil]

I just finished FFIX last week and this is was one of my favorite songs in the OST. Fantastic work!

[JoseOrichalcum]

Lavos?

I haven't even played Chrono Trigger...but even still, you now have my undivided attention.

[threed]

Big shout outs to the creators of the glorious Moguri Mod me and Rub used in the gameplay footage, one of the best graphics enhancing and overall mods I've ever seen, fixing most of Square Enix's shortcomings when it comes to the lazy porting of this amazing game for Steam.

[TheNamekianClown]

What?! This is legitimately my favorite Final Fantasy song!

[Mmmm-vmvn]

I would love to hear a remix of Blinded By Light

[bezoznaught]

Bruh, this music is so under represented, even though it's the turning point in FF9. My favorite game in existence! Keep it up!

[HunterPBrown]

I used to play this song on my ocarina years ago.

[Bokune]

oh boy that scream can only mean one thing... the end of the world set to amazing heavy metal music


also restating my request again
category six from fossil fighters champions
haunted zone from rakugakids
theyre such good obscure songs that id love to see given the heavy metal treatment

[grimsunrise]

Having the knowledge to play all these instruments and editing them together so well is absolutely amazing. You sir are a one-man Army!

[Flegan]

At least someone is acknowledging Beatrix’s abilities (other than Steiner). Very well done on incorporating multiple Beatrix-related tracks together. I suddenly feel inspired to use my UoC tickets to get Beatrix in Brave Exvius now. : )

Lavos has returned to disrupt the timeline of our remix enjoyment!

[gasparlares]

I WILL NEVER GIVE UP REQUESTING "GUYZOCH SPACE PIRATES/GUYZOCH SPACE PIRATE TEIO FORM" FROM THE WONDERFUL 101!! Jonny, remember what you said on Live Stream 7 on 1:55:32, well The Wonderful 101 could be on your To Do List.

[MoonSpiritChannel]

Next is a Chrono Trigger cover, of Lavos! The final battle, and I can't wait!

[Zephhi]

Yes! This theme is so epic. Steiner and Beatrix all the way!

[AlexanderDraconis]

So I was driving along listening to this, which was awesome even though I didn't get that far in FFIX, and then I heard the buzzer as usual...but then I heard….THAT. THING. I legitimately felt a shiver up my spine and I gripped the wheel tighter.

Autoplay starts up Falling Down. COLONY DROP! IT'S THE ONLY WAY TO BE SURE! COLONY DROP ON LAVOS!

[Ryuzekia]

Oh hell yea he's redoing Lavos, I was just listening to it and wishing for more covers of it.
