English rock cover of a Touhou song that has got to be Flandre's theme song (well, at least up through the big fight scene.)

Huh, I've seen Vocaloid covers of this before, never realised it was from Tōhō.

I...don't know how I missed this thread.

This exact cover of this exact song is the only Touhou song I have ever actually bought and paid for, and I did so months ago, with not a single thought towards UF.

It is, indeed, a small world after all.

To be fair, further reflection has led me to connect the song a bit more with other characters and universes, particularly and amusingly Velvet Crowe from Tales of Berseria (who the singer on that cover provided the English voice for, which probably helps the connection subconsciously.) It's a solid song though, the upbeat, energetic tune contrasting with the rather unhappy lyrics.

The first version I saw is all black and white silhouettes, switching back and forth between fore and background colors. The animation flows really well, considering. If memory serves, this is the original.
