This was the other song I covered around the same time as Selene's Light. It ended up getting done first, but I felt more comfortable posting Selene's Light first as that was something I hadn't covered yet. Just like last time, this was ported using AddmusicK with SMW's default instruments. The one major issue I ran into when writing the MML for this (and am expecting to run into in the future) is with regards to looping - the song kept trying to play one of the melodies in a different key than intended despite not even trying to transpose the song. I think this was because I tried using the labeled loops Wakana outlined in the music porting tutorial but they weren't a good fit for this track. It also doesn't help that the SPC won't play the full song up to that point if all of the notes and rests aren't there. As a result, I had to cheat a little by having the notes leading back into the loop right at the start, but muted until after the loop.

That's not to say I don't think this turned out well. I am very satisfied with the results here, and I'm glad to have revisited this song. Hope you enjoy it!
