the fact that in the interview they got inspired by the "The Greatest Showman" singing scene... make all sense now.
@vaasmontenegro37288 ай бұрын
What was the inspiration behind No Promises to Keep? Uematsu: Since it is a ballad, I wanted to make it absolutely electrifying. I was asked to make the song so that the key phrase would play in repetition, and that’s when Harry Nilsson’s “Without You” came to mind. I took inspiration from it and decided to repeat a key phrase in the chorus. How did you feel when you first listened to “No Promises to Keep?” Uematsu: This is the first time I’ve heard this, and I’m glad she sensed exactly what we were aiming for. “No Promises to Keep” is a love song. I wanted it to exude a sweet feeling, but at the same time, evoke the complex feeling as Aerith confessed her feelings. I tried to build up the song as it climaxed, exactly as Loren described Was there anything you paid attention to when singing “No Promises to Keep”? Loren: I wanted to get to know Aerith well, and I also wanted to depict her relationship with Cloud. So, for me to channel her fragile and pure personality, I needed to change certain elements of my natural vocals to match up with her character. No Promises to Keep was inspired by, “Without you” I just listened to the version Mariah Carey sings in Tokyo and wow, you need to listen to it.

Could it be chance? Till the day that we meet again Where or when I wish I could say But believe-know that you'll find me Promises to keep-we won't ever need If only I'd never known All the burdens I was born to bear Lived a life without a care, in a world safe for you But that won't do Till the day that we meet again On our street, I want to believe In the chance that we'll share a glance Promises to keep-we won't ever need Till the day that we meet again At our place, just let me believe In the chance that you'll come, Take my hand, and never let me go Take my hand and believe We can be together evermore Walking city streets with worn cobblestones Struggling against the crowds and finding ourselves all alone Fate and destiny are no guarantee Still, I hope some day you'll come and find me Still, I know some day you'll come and find me

RIP Aerith. Just (finally) got through the end of Rebirth last night. The hurt 20+ years ago when I first played it and even though I knew the story, of course, losing her was still rough. My wife, who only periodically watched segments of the game, teared up at her death and the ending (emotional) scene, even.

Now I just got PC/Steam FF7 version to know how the original game is.

What was the inspiration behind No Promises to Keep? Uematsu: Since it is a ballad, I wanted to make it absolutely electrifying. I was asked to make the song so that the key phrase would play in repetition, and that’s when Harry Nilsson’s “Without You” came to mind. I took inspiration from it and decided to repeat a key phrase in the chorus. How did you feel when you first listened to “No Promises to Keep?” Uematsu: This is the first time I’ve heard this, and I’m glad she sensed exactly what we were aiming for. “No Promises to Keep” is a love song. I wanted it to exude a sweet feeling, but at the same time, evoke the complex feeling as Aerith confessed her feelings. I tried to build up the song as it climaxed, exactly as Loren described Was there anything you paid attention to when singing “No Promises to Keep”? Loren: I wanted to get to know Aerith well, and I also wanted to depict her relationship with Cloud. So, for me to channel her fragile and pure personality, I needed to change certain elements of my natural vocals to match up with her character. No Promises to Keep was inspired by, “Without you” I just listened to the version Mariah Carey sings in Tokyo and wow, you need to listen to it.

This song Aerith wrote is for Cloud, how they met in the street and how it changed her life. And btw she reassures him he has no promises to keep (the opposite of Tifa basically), as she already told him in the dream Remake when he said « I’m coming for you » and her to answer « if that what you WANT… thank you ». At the end of Rebirth, he also says « I will stop Sephiroth » and her to respond « Promise ?? » as a joke « Promise » he smiles.
