I love this song! I don't even really know why I love it so much since the original is so short and repetitive. Even despite those flaws, I think this song is a stroke of genius. It sounds like some kind of lost Zelda song to me. I wanted to honor this song properly by extending it and making it sound much larger with an orchestral cover. If any of you are fans of the game, I hope this cover satisfies!

I have a lot of dreams, both daydreams and night dreams, about songs I've "made" that sound really awesome to me during the dream, until I wake up discovering that they don't actually exist yet. This song is about bringing those songs into the real world, and hey, maybe this song was one of them?
