Backstory: With the beginning of my Junior year of college just around the corner and my parents embarking on a trip to Poland (taking the video camera with them), I had to rush to record my Final Fantasy I-III VGdrum videos as well as my first VGdrum request/birthday present to my good friend Jade, the Shadow of the Colossus drum cover. Unfortunately, because of this, both this video and the Final Fantasy medley have syncing issues, so I will be placing Final Fantasy on the backburner until I have access to the camera and my drums.

Forgive the syncing issues in the beginning of this cover, I didn't even have to time to make an opening click-track to this song so I enlisted in the help of my friend JoeO to press Play on my iPod (thanks man!). I also felt that I could've added some variations to the fills I do and tighten up my drumming at certain points. I promise you all that I will revisit this amazing composition and make a better rendition of it alongside the Final Fantasy medley. So take it for what it is, and I wish Jade a very Happy (early) Birthday!!

After revisiting this request in the coming months and finishing my Final Fantasy medleys, I will officially be taking requests (I'll make a video announcing this).

The music of Shadow of the Colossus (Wander and the Colossus) was composed by Kō Ōtani and performed by several people. The Playstation 2 game was developed by Team ICO and published by Sony Computer Entertainment.

I can't wait for The Last Guardian on Playstation 3!
