Ai Chuuseishin (Instrumental cover, original by Toshio Masuda) *Feel free to use*

I actually first had the idea for this a little over four years ago when I was first shown a delightfully mad little animé called Excel Saga, which has apparently been out for closer to a little over ten years. While I had started on it back then, I was making it a point to finish some of the previous projects I had started, and I ended up forgetting about this one until now, which is fortuitous, as the technology at my disposal and my understanding of such technology were a little more lacking back then. Even so, this isn't a perfect cover; I took a few liberties: For one, I couldn't find anything that would simulate a brass section as well as I'd wished, so I improvised, and the same goes for the left-speaker synth that's heard through most of the original song.

Unlike my cover of Again by Yui, I opted to not do the full song; rather only the cut used for the show's opening. This is because I've always felt that the third verse in the original work felt a little out-of-place; not the lyrics, but the music. Plus, since I wasn't really feeling a solo for this one, and since having even just the first and second verses/choruses would have gotten a bit redundant, I decided to go for the animé cut. Enjoy, and keep an eye out for some new original material, coming (hopefully) soon.

Addendum: Please feel free to use this for any covers/such that you would like. I only ask that you give me credit. I don't have a chance to get on my channel often, so by the time I find these requests, it's usually too late.
