Oh, something this cool most definitely doesn't deserve to wait for a weekend to be posted. From across the Pacific and in the sunny islands of the Philippines comes a musical genius. Move over, YouTube pianists. Here comes Diwa De Leon doing his own one-man Zelda medley orchestra routine.

And when we say one-man, we mean precisely that. He does the first voice, the second voice, the third, fourth, and from time to time, even the fifth voice, all in snych. He even does the violin part too. He says this arrangement was mostly taken from themes in A Link to the Past.



Apparently, De Leon is some grandson of a well known Filipino national music artist, and is currently working as a professional composer for TV shows and indie films. Now what say we have a Super Mario medley next, eh?

Apparently you know nothing about the Philippines. If you have money over there you get mad B*****s and it doesn't matter what you look like.

I'm a Filipino... What papajag said is false and true at the same time... uhmmm... First of all, what he said 'bout needin money to get 'em ladies is true... Everywhere in this D*MN world, some ladies dig money... y'hear? But not all filipinas are like that...

yeah, what papajag said is pretty true. I mean, you still gotta be a decent guy, but money does earn a lot of bonus points over there. Also, just being from a foreign country adds mega bonus points. You just gotta know where to go cuz there are a lot of old ways of thinking, so there are still a lot of subtle racist thoughts going around... but I guess you can't really get away from that anywhere, can you? But yea, on top of being a outwardly decent guy, signs of "higher status" help a lot.

I don't like Zelda because he always wears the same skirt and tights.

you guys sound really retarted... first off, zelda is the Princess, not the Hero, His name is Link. Second, he is not the same person in all of the series, the character just has similarities between the games and characters. Link is not really a girly name, but whatever. As far as a time line, they are different games, so no, they dont follow a specific timeline, the only ones that are similar are the 2 N64 games, and the gba titles, besides those, each Link is a different character. Anyway, the video is awesome, it's very hard to overdub yourself 4 times over, with different pitches and tones, so CONGRATS

Zelda is the game's title. Link is the main characters name. Get it right next time. Oh and "Specht", all Zelda games are based off different Link's so get your facts right. Oh and Zelda is the princess name, you know like princess Peach from Mario unless u think Mario is a girl too, then f*** me. And "rpgpro001", you know ure facts, so right on bro. Zelda was prolly around when u werent born so, go play Daxter a false look a like to Link. A game ppl actually nvr grew up with....
