like the title said. This thing portrays the final battle of a war or something. It would go great in a WW1 and 2 along with Civil War movies. Maybe even 300? lolz I don't know how you play that good. Now... I want to downoad this.

"Excellent."

I could vividly picture the American soldiers of WW2 on their last day of war. Thousands of men who fought against the German War machine, and again Japan's forces; their faces dirty and grimy, but the all-too familiar flicker of joy in their eyes; All of them listening excitedly to the radio, where announcers spread the news, a beacon of light and happiness for all of the men, enthusiastic rookies and hardened veterans alike: "The war is over! Our brave soldiers may now return home to their beloved families and children! It is a great day indeed!". They smile, as they are heading towards the planes and ships that will take them to their homeland. The war has ended. Good has prevailed once more, but with a dearly cost - you can see that in their eyes. Now comes peace and happiness. Star-spangled flags flutter in the wind as ships and planes head into the sunset and towards America.

Great musical piece, you have a talent that could greatly help you in your life, if the right person hears this. You get maximum score from me - but only because the limits are 10 and 5 respectively.

"Simply spectacular"

This song has a great and big atmosphere making this a great song! On top of that, this song really suites its title and it is also very exciting. The instruments used in making this song is great and is perfect. However, I hoped that the song lasted longer but other than that this was a great song that must be credited for. Fantastic job there.

Thanx for review.
The track is quite short to fit in a game without taking too much space.
I'm glad that you like my music.
