- subwarm, on 10/10/2007, -1/+22The Minibosses should be on this list too - http://www.minibosses.com/
- DeRiza, on 10/10/2007, -0/+17Nice. I love that MGS song.
- jackwaters, on 10/10/2007, -2/+17MGS: Best theme song EVER....
- unicronband, on 10/10/2007, -0/+9I'm very suprised they don't have anything by the Advantage on here. In case you haven't heard of them, their entire repetoire consists of 8-bit Nintendo songs reworked on guitars, drums & bass and featuring Spencer Seim, the guitarist from Hella on drums.

If you ever get a chance, see them live. - CUatTHEFINISH, on 10/10/2007, -0/+9Harry Gregson-Williams makes some great compilations for the MGS series. (I'm assuming he is responsible for the theme song. I could be wrong though)
- digger1942, on 10/10/2007, -0/+9The Great Giana Sisters, covered by Machinae Supremacy. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DCmY0PGgcPs
- Kazanoe, on 10/10/2007, -0/+8FULL OF WIN.
- Taedirk, on 10/10/2007, -1/+8No Black Mages, no good.
- smoothmedia, on 10/10/2007, -0/+7Nothing beats "Metal Man Goes Clubbing", a remix of Metal Man's stage theme from Megaman II by a guy at OCremix named "Disco Dan"

Orgasmic. - VtmnR, on 10/10/2007, -1/+7Duracell, Space Harrier and Turrican:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2QfwKqy3LyY
And no The Black Mages for Final Fantasy? I know Uematsu's involved, but still! - xerus, on 10/10/2007, -0/+5I love their SIDology songs... sid metal perfection.
- satx, on 10/10/2007, -1/+6Quickman's Spanish guitar theme FTW.
- metapop, on 10/10/2007, -1/+6love the megaman covers... that music never gets old, especially MM2.
- invertedtwisted, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4What about Tokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra's cover of the Tetris theme song? Everyone loves TSPO!
...nope? Just me? - sl3eper, on 10/10/2007, -2/+6FAIL.
Its not a top 10 video game music covers without POWERGLOVE!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iA2hMGN8nis - tidu, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4Thanks, Brendon.
- PotoinMan, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4wow...the MGS song gave me chills. Nicely done!
- acdcfanbill, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4Machinae Supremacy kick ass!
- MattTS, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4http://files-upload.com/414858/MetalGearMetal.mp3.html Metal Gear Solid theme by a friend of mine.
- bluebirdgm, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3Calling the Hikaru Utada number a "Kingdom Hearts cover" is kind of silly, since she's the original performer of both the English and the Japanese versions of the song *for* the video game; one doesn't often consider a live performance by the original artist a "cover." And while one has to forgive him for his ignorance, the commenter on the article who marveled at the "American accent she's mastered" apparently never thought of the possibility that Utada spent much of her life in the United States and speaks English without an accent.
- dpl_, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3You can find a mostly identical song on the MGS3 soundtrack:
http://dl1.ffshrine.org/soundtracks/dl/249/1698ac/Metal%20Gear%20Solid%203%20Snake%20Eater%20Original%20Soundtrack/102_''metal_gear_solid''_main_theme_(metal_gear_solid_3_version).mp3 - MooD2, on 10/10/2007, -1/+4Bah, Megadeth's Duke Nukem Theme is easily the best game song cover ever and it's not even on the list.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pxcbr3PJ76E - mattfugitive, on 10/10/2007, -1/+3Where's The Pixies cover of the theme from Narc?
- kelevra7, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2I totally agree, the MGS song is really one of the best video game songs there is although I do believe that halo should be a little higher on the list.
- thehappysymptom, on 09/20/2008, -0/+2This needs more diggs. Seriously cool.
- Legato, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2wish i could get a recording of it... or that they would play somewhere close to the midwest usa ;_;
- wattznext, on 10/10/2007, -1/+3I logged in just to say the same exact thing. The advantage is the end all be all!
- jedikv, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2The GRAW theme is also awesome
- jedikv, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2Who pissed in your cheerios today?
- BahamutBBob, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2Harry Gregson-Williams wrote all of the music for MGS2 aside from the song playing during the ending credits, and I'm pretty sure he wrote most of the music for MGS3 as well. I need to replay MGS1 to see if it has that theme in there somewhere, though I'm pretty sure it uses The Best is Yet to Come for it's theme.
- loganhid, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2nope your right
- keyboardduder, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2How about the Neskimos!
- DDRSkata, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Yeah! That should be number one.
- postalblowfish7, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1this list is *****. notice any names missing? LIKE THE NAMES OF THE FREAKIN COMPOSERS???
koji kondo? nobuo uematsu? yuzo koshiro? masato nakamura? naoki kodaka? nobuyuki hara? hirokazu tanaka?
names that are lost and forgotten to the bone-headed american "gamers" who hook up red bull IVs and shoot each other on xbox live. shameful list. pitiful list. some people actually take game music seriously folks. - Zybex, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1I like the Press play on tape rendition of the Monkey Island theme. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HjXmcyuthl0
They also do an excellent version of Warhawk from the C64 days. - Blah_Blah_Blah, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1anyone have a torrent of the classic sonic music? im getting nostalgic =[
- firedrillduckie, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Pull the stick out of your ass, then talk.
- Sabin, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Dugg for Utada. ヒッキちゃん大好き！
- Tostito, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Indeed, Utada is one amazing singer. Most of the reason I play such games as Kingdom Hearts and others is because of the music involved. I hereby dub this story: Dugg
- Ja50n, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1chrono cross/trigger anyone?
http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=2184973319978072435 - postalblowfish7, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1um... the advantage?
burried as inacurate and ***** lame.
halo music is just a ***** second rate movie score. - mikoyski, on 10/10/2007, -1/+2Minibosses HAD TO BE on this list. Check out their rendition of Contra theme: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IsNngmdPiCI
- postalblowfish7, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1i guess wing command IV's music should have been on the list?
- jedikv, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1dugg for the great rendition mgs theme
- drek, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1I agree the FF cover wasn't good, but the Zelda Big Bang was awesome.
- fuzzynyanko, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1I'll have to give it to Corporeal because they are a bunch of high school kids when they did that cover.
- sup34dog, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1the actual article's title: "Top 10: Video Game Music Covers on Youtube"
...otherwise it should be :D - fragsta, on 10/10/2007, -1/+2What about Ozma's cover of Korobeiniki (tetris)?
- joe2100, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1ochre is a genius. if you like his zelda remix you should also check out is songs 'ourcade' and 'mobilfoes' they are both 8bit inspired. And check out the rest of his stuff while your at it. Great musician in his own right.
- Haplo, on 10/10/2007, -1/+2Theme from NARC - Pixies
