It’s time to take another stab at my favorite game song of all time: the almighty Dancing Mad from Final Fantasy VI.

I always held off on remixing Dancing Mad till I felt I was ‘good enough’ to give it a shot… back in 2014. Well I probably wasn’t quite ready yet and that version was only sort of ok (in my opinion), so this time, I’ve given it my absolute all and tried to make this the best Dancing Mad I could possibly make.

Here are some of the biggest changes from my old version (aside from swapped instrument parts and stuff like that):

Part 1: Moved everything back up to the original key (this goes for all parts), changed and added some lyrics (listed below)
Part 2: Added lyrics from the Distant Worlds version
Part 3:  Added more bass and drums, changing the entire feel
Part 4: Faster and overall heavier than before

Lyrics (mix of English and Latin):

Part 1
Deadly world of oblivion
Heavenly day
All is calm but transitory
(Forgot those days I am your Master)
Vanish

The day of terror
Day of the tyrant
The light of judgement
Will count the death toll

Gloria
Fortuna
Scorched earth
Feral rage

Discontent
Monument to non-existence
(Exterminate)
Deleo Interneco
(Arise from hate)
Poena mortis

Part 2
Vo, vo, vo, vo, vo, vo, vorto (x6)
Di, diem
Fla, flammus
No, nova
Cae, caelum

Vo, vo, vo, vo, vo, vo, vorto (x4)
Di, diem
Fla, flammus
No, nova
Cae, caelum

Part 4 (at the every end)
Gloria
Fortuna

I think I can sleep peacefully with this arrangement of my favorite game song. Now I gotta remake that old Decisive Battle remix…
