Legend of Mana - Intro (English Subtitles)

[@DuwangKaizer]

Fun Fact: The opening song was sung by Annika Ljungberg (a.k.a. Mary Sue), former lead singer of the Swedish Music Group *Rednex, the guys behind their 1995 hit, Cotton Eye Joe.*

[@Zaru7t10]

As a Swedish I feel incredibly honored that the japanese feel the need to include a song in our language

[@toothlessnightfury1820]

and how do you think this Japanese singer sweetheart did with her Swedish? ..

[@ZhadTheRad]

@@toothlessnightfury1820 Who are you talking about? The singer is Swedish

[@toothlessnightfury1820]

@@ZhadTheRad yeah figured the composer is Japanese, and some Japanese singers re-made it but the original is swedish, my bad.

[@qqchan]

toothless nightfury The singer is from the group Rednex, famous for their song Cutton Eye Joe

[@RainbowEssence-c3w]

@@qqchan Really? Wow! I never imagined a singer from the group responsible for the song Cotton Eye Joe could also be responsible for this gorgeous song lol. Actually, I didn't even know Cotton Eye Joe was sung by a swedish band!

[@thesparxeffect9734]

The tears, I can't make them stop. I spent so many hours with this legendary classic back in the day.

[@Izumi70V3Naruto]

Yesss why it makes me crying too... 😭😭😭

[@noahlewis2814]

Holy shit I’m so glad it’s not just me then I hear this and the tears start coming 🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲 it’s a gorgeous intro to make a man cry

[@jamesgolden7317]

Legend Of Mana is still one of the greatest games ever. :) Also Suikoden, and Legend of Dragoon. I remember hearing the intro song of LoD by Elsa Raven, on the radio once in my life.

[@andrezafialhodearaujo6523]

James Golden Concordo 😊!Assim como Grandia e a série Tales! .

[@romariomoscon9424]

Chrono Cross too. I loved playing Legend of Dragoon and suikoden.

[@herethere8817]

o yes!!! so many gems! what a priv. to have played and replayed soooo many!

1000%

[@eduardonovais3136]

Brasil here 🇧🇷 The best game and OST I've ever seen! ❤

[@diogholuiz]

Com toda certeza! Ansioso para o remaster.

[@shikiyu]

I been playing since 2001 and when i beat the game the song wasn't japanese. I thought it was french so i let my older sister listen to the song after i beat the game. She said that it was not french.... For 16 years i finally learn this song is Swedish. My mind is blown away lol. I still love it.

[@Philkalamansijuice]

in the year 2021 i discover this song was a Swedish 😅😅😅😅

[@anomaine]

i just learn it 😭😭

[@RedHairdo]

Holy fuck, even the lyrics are good. As with the voie delivery, visuals and art direction, plus previous Seiken knowledge about what is that tree didn't all deliver a strong enough punch already! Squaresoft was the ultimate gaming company. RIP 2001.

[@themollymachine]

This song is a classic now. Still so beautiful

[@revenile]

The version of this in the remaster is great. Uses the new background art, doesn't seem to be a video file like this one was, and even runs at 60 FPS. It was a special moment when I saw it on the Switch.

[@Sly-Moose]

Why did they fix what wasn't broken?

[@budakbaongsiah]

Squaresoft was so silly at those times. I mean, you got Irish singer for Xenogears and Swedish singer for Legend of Mana yet both were not released in Europe! The HD remaster of this game was the first time it's officially available for Europeans to buy the game.

[@Sameeer_Saker]

The song is just amazing, also love the absurdity of how it represents the gameplay by showing plots of land becoming beakers and little skulls

[@indomietable]

11 years later, this song is remastered in Japanese (by Saori Hayami/ Female MC, Serafina's Voice actor) for Anime adaptation. I'm grateful to be alive until now.

[@budakbaongsiah]

She's definitely no Annika Ljungberg, that's for sure.

[@andrezafialhodearaujo6523]

Que saudades desse jogo 😊! Essa música é tão linda e dá uma nostalgia tão grande 😄!Simplesmente inesquecível 😍!.

[@RainbowEssence-c3w]

Thank you very much for making this video, I've always loved this song and game since I was a child! Just the whole opening is so beautiful, it sends shivers down my spine! Swedish is such a beautiful, magical-sounding language.

Love this game. Always done multiple plays of it, throughout the years. Nothing ever towards perfect. Decided to pull up a walk-through today, figured I'd follow it through see how it goes. Learn from it. Anyway....Always a fun, great time

[@Mizuru007]

Thank you SO much, I finally know what I've been singing for years!!

[@aaronschmidt9753]

Used to play this every morning before school to hype up. Still slaps.

One of most beautifull songs in videogames. Very like it. For some reason in remaster play only instrumental version.

magical to hear the intro in my language "Swedish"

[@feywinterfox9630]

Wow! I had no idea this was in Swedish! I can say it is a BEAUTIFUL song ☺️❤️

[@mcneilsuarez7794]

I thought it was latin

[@marcojacinto824]

Beautiful language! It sounds magical ❤️

[@Hakitosama]

To be perfectly honest I thought it was Gaelic ^^' my bad

[@rixiachannel3261]

Finally remastered 😭😭

[@JoeManza]

In my fanon, this entire FMV, plus the opening narration, is a dream that either Ryu (my name for the boy) or Sasame (my name for the girl) has at the start of the game. Neither of them knows what it's about, but have a feeling it's connected somehow to their destiny.

[@peloi111]

Finally got my PS1 copy, I'm looking forward to this game since months! I do watercolorpaintings, I want to get inspired!

[@nonnon6856]

Finally we will see this in HD

[@nielvincentambe837]

This song brings me back to childhood days

[@FinalHype]

And to think that many disliked this girl for singing this song in the past.(even in our own country) Tch! They don't even know when someone actually sings! I freaking loved every second of the opening of this game! I also think it's unfair to blame the singer for the weird lyrics. Personally, I think she did an excellent job of opening up this game. Few games were like this one... very few.

[@Zero-di9mz]

i like the lyrics a lot that makes the song even better

[@kricku]

@@Zero-di9mz Trust me, the swedish lyrics are _horrible_ :)

[@janemmanueldeguzman5855]

This is nostalgic... This is one of the first three fantasy games that I have played in the Playstation 1 console back in the early 2000's... This is definitely one of the best games I have played... Thank you for uploading this video :)

[@stevens1041]

Rented this game when it was released, with my friend. We were in 7th or 8th grade. This absolute banger of a song comes on and I have to pretend like I'm not completely enchanted in front of my homie. Thought the language was Chinese when I heard it.

[@joe_razor]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/oZS2gaCYiparqbs the HD version has been redrawn in many parts. I still think the original looks more charming. For comparison take the flying mailbox. The new render is inferior in lighting and application of the cell shading effect.

[@dreammfyre]

The singer from Rednex.

[@twotorches]

Had to come back after seeing the animation trailer :3

Who's here after the announcement of the remake?!

Lástima que no encuentro está canción en Spotify.😢

[@elyzaguevara8675]

I miss this game!😊

[@keselekbakiak]

I've seen the game multiple times on shelves, but i choose wild arms 2 and brave fencer musashi instead, because the box art is kinda weird. So one day, out of boredom, I decided to buy the game. And it was an amazing discovery for me. The gameplay, tangled storyline, world building, music and everything about this game is amazing. Which is probably why i hate dawn of mana, because the gameplay is different.

[@MelAncholynus]

Vackert Annika! :)

[@mitsuki7212]

One of the best Mana series but it kinda miss up with there stroy, it had no pattern, you gotta figure out which should be done 1st

[@Sugusipon_]

Omg nostalgia old memories

[@hobbygamer6220]

thanks

[@gorasul12]

Hehe remember how this intro confused my brain, as a swede so did i never expect a swedish intro in the game so i sat and quickly noticed it was not japanese and tried to figure it out for a while until it finally klicked 🤣

[@gumilanq]

Kembali kesini karena legend of mana skrng ada animenya 😭

[@emperium108]

When I was a kid I thought it was a madeup language for the game. Lolz.

[@123jazz2007]

When I was a kid, I thought it was Japanese.

[@Arlacent]

Technically, all languages are made up.

[@My2Cents1]

OMG it's Anime Jpop sang in Swedish! I'm Swedish and all I can say is the lyrics are trite and quite awkward in their implementation. But still, it has that playful "Japanese-ness" about it that makes me not care.

[@Sly-Moose]

Forget the Minecraft soundtrack THIS soundtrack is nostalgic for me 😂

[@quetzalcoaxial7280]

I'm 65% Swedish (DNA test confirmed it)... it makes me proud to hear this even though I can't spread it...

[@quetzalcoaxial7280]

I looked up the lyrics and they're pretty sad...I always ball by the end... I never do figure out..

[@JorgeMendez-rt3co]

la vida era sencilla antes 😢

[@Just-Alexiel]

when i see the " remaster " were this beautiful song has been scrapped, for another intro that i like less, and no effort in really remastering it cos it's a 2D games , and the original still hold up very well, i'll not buy it , and keep the OG one.

[@farisibrahim1044]

@@estefaniadiaz4975 I feel exactly the same way! I was so shocked to see it actually got an anime adaption, and they're even covering my favorite story line in the game! I also agree on the song too, while the one from the show is great, it can't compare to this legendary original!
