A gathering of all versions of Forces by Susumu Hirasawa (minus 1.5.2), plus a little doujin surprise.


(0:00) 'Forces' - Original version composed by Susumu Hirasawa, part of the 1997 Berserk series original soundtrack.

(4:10) 'Forces II' - Quite different version from the original, what can be considered the 'Dark Age' variant of 'Forces'. It was composed for the Berserk Dreamcast game 'Sword of the Berserk: Guts' Rage' ('Berserk Millennium Falcon Arc: Chapter of the Oblivion Flower' in Japan). The soundtrack album was released in late 1999.

(8:12) 'Forces (Piano Version)' - Doujin piano version of Forces published on niconico. It has quite a fast tempo compared to the original score, which makes it a very catchy piano interpretation. [ Ссылка ]

(11:06) 'Take The Wheel' ('Kaji wo Tore' in Japanese) - Considered as the prototype version of 'Forces'. While they are lyrically different, they share the same instrumental basis. Released in 1994 on 'Aurora'.

(15:47) 'Forces 1.5' - A little known remix appearing on 'Solar Ray' published in 2001. It features more electronic elements and is sung in a lower octave by Hirasawa.

(19:57) 'Forces (God Hand Remix)' - Doubtlessly the most popular arrangement of the song, featured on the 'Forces' single released in 1997.
