Hiya. Here's the well-known Godot's Theme played with real instruments.
Me on alto saxophone and my friend on electric guitar. We used a program to add an echo effects and give some finishing touches to it. Unfortunately, we didn't count with a bass guitar for the rythm.

ENJOY!

:godot: Click me!

Aternately, you can listen to it on Youtube:
:javado: Click me!

UPDATE:
I have recorded the song again, this time with both parts played on the saxophone, and played together in real time to avoid artificial linking. I hope you like it more than the previous one!

:godot: <---- Download song

:javado: <---- Listen in Youtube

Your link didn't work- but I've heard it before.

It is THE sexiest theme song that ANY character has EVER had.

And it's not cause Godot is my favorite PW character. It's swoon material. Saxophones played right is *drool

Good song. I really like how you've turned Godot's theme into a piece of music with actual instruments. Only constructive criticism is the guitar, I think it is...It's not very clean and there's an annoying 'ring' to it. Also, are you using a alto sax for the first part? I find Alto to be much better and clearer for that part.

P.S: In reality, I liked the way you hyperlinked the link to the :godot:

sig more.

. Kidding, but I never thought of linking like that before...

Well, I'm glad you liked it. Regarding the guitar, maybe it's unclear due to the echo effect and the tempo in some parts. I'd have to ask my friend about the ring.
And yes, I used an alto sax. It sounded quite different to the real song because they use a metal mouthpiece, and I have a plastic one, that sounds very differently.
LOL I also find it funny to use the Godot for the link :godot:

I quite like it. You're a pretty good sax player (A lot better than I ever was!). Keep practicing and it'll sound just perfect!

This sounds good for my ears.Especially the sax part but I don't really like the guitar part kinda have 'ringing' sound and it hurts. Keep practicing and this would be absopusitutely perfect :redd:

Really, really good. :pearl:

The guitar part kind of came in very suddenly and a bit randomly, imo. I would have just done the whole song with the sax, but that's more a personal thing for me, so yeah.
The sax is my favourite instrument, by the way. Wish I could play as good as you. :maya:

Hehe you all said the same. I feel flattered, really. I didn't know I played so good (must be cause my bro plays much better than me)
And you all complained about the guitar. I'll have a word with my friend *grabs gun*
Anyway, I'm glad you liked it!

Nice. It feels very magical, with the low, soft vibe of the tune. Although it's not the clear melody of Godot's theme, it's very nice however there is a problem with either some notes you were playing or the tool you used to record the performance as at some parts, it turns into garbled mess.
