Forever he will be MY hero! What about you?

It’s in my nature to be both overzealous and eager to please the GaMetal community as much as I can, so I pre-confirmed two additional songs for our first Medley Song Madness event, starting with Captain Falcon’s Theme from F-Zero GX/AX.

As mentioned in previous posts, two forms were made available for the event for people to submit their most wanted songs from past GaMetal medleys for full remake contention, a public form and a Patreon form.

For the GameCube Medley category, the public overwhelmingly voted for the Super Smash Bros. Melee Opening theme. Interestingly, the SSBM Opening theme performed fairly average in Patreon voting, where Captain Falcon managed to snag the top spot instead.

The original sounds straight up like a Christian rock song. You could easily play this in any youth church group and no one but the most astute F-Zero fans would be suspect. I attempted to heavy up this arrangement a bit, while still keeping the soul of the original.

As seen in the video, I’m joined by the one and only Samurai Goroh on vocals, with additional backup from Black Shadow. It turns out they really don’t hate Captain Falcon and rather look up to him. I always knew Goroh hated on Falcon a little too hard…
