These days, I am not into video games at all, but once I came across an awesome song (rather, a remix) from a video game. It happened this way. On another forum, a user posted a thread asking to find an error in his proof of something like 9 = 0. The proof was a whole page of formulas full of square roots. It seemed completely impenetrable. It reminded me of the following music score, called "Faerie's Aire and Death Waltz" by John Stump, that I saw somewhere on the Internet.
I also recalled seeing a YouTube video playing this or a similar score. After some search, I found this video:
[video=youtube;JOW2JpPi6Wc]Relationship between "Faerie's Aire and Death Waltz" and "U.N. Owen Was Her?"[/video]
of a different song being played by a sheet music program. That score was also full of fragments like these.
However, though there was a reference to the "Death Waltz" in the video title, this is a completely different song. It is a remix of "U.N. Owen Was Her?" (I have no idea what this means) from a Japanese video game "Touhou: The Embodiment of Scarlet Devil". The relationship between the "Death Waltz" and "U.N. Owen Was Her?" is explained in
this video (briefly, calling the video game theme the "Death Waltz" was a careless mistake by some YouTube poster).
However amazing the score of the video game remix seems, there is an
actual performance of (admittedly, a version of) it on the piano.
Anyway, while I was researching this and thinking about a sarcastic reply something like, "Your proof looks like this score", another user calmly pointed out the line with an error. It was as impressive as performing that score on the piano.
