Chrono Cross Scars of Time

[@umuterdem9826]

One of the first videos I saw when I discovered youtube. Immigrated, had kids, lost my dad and still share with people at my 30s.

[@roarkoo4648]

2020: Still the best time's scar play!!

[@keiy9262]

[@hexshadowman]

14 years on, and this is still the best cover. The brilliant arrangement, the expertise of the pianist, and the excellent sound quality all come together beautifully. 👏

[@rathk1270]

still the best piece on Scars of Time on youtube.

[@SergioGonzalez-yf4ob]

[@TomAndersonn]

Yup

[@neoasura]

7 years later and the comment is still true.

[@ChimpFlipperJr]

I went through a bunch of comments and some people have tried to point people to places where they can get this sheet music. I'm just posting another way to get it in case it helps anyone out. This is Okeiko's arrangement of Scars of Time. For some reason I have it in a folder of Chrono music arranged by a Japanese guy named Zohar. Just Google "zohar sheet music" (without quotes), the first link is a Reddit post with a link to a ZIP file with a bunch of Zohar arrangements. There is a PDF of Scars of Time arranged by a person named Okeiko, it is exactly what this person is playing. I am sure there are many other places to find this music too if you look through Google results, some commenters have mentioned youtube description pages that have links, but this is the way I obtained the sheet music.

[@VSK314]

Thank you so much for your time looking for this, i've just downloaded it!

[@akim2442]

thanks for the awesome info! I'm a bit surprised he's playing from an online composition because it looks like he has a proper piano book open, so I assumed it was an official sheet music book

[@avitron142]

@@akim2442 It's possible Okeiko's version was transcribed from this video. By the time I found the sheet music (a few years ago), it was hard to tell.

[@TheLynx30]

THANK YOU!

No one on Earth has done this song justice like you, I literally get shivers when I watch this.

[@hellomoney333]

we like this cause he plays all the background music meant for percussion,wind instruments and basses on the piano i love it!!!!!

[@thiagobueno2032]

Holy shit!! I literally cried with this one... Unbelievable

[@JerveeBS]

And yes, last April 7, 2022, the release of remaster of this games across multiplatform had took place. Definitely the most memorable and heart piercing game that gives you all kinds of feel. The depth of emotion in this game is so hard to explain. I really love this game.

[@greywolf1632]

The best arrangement so far! Amazing!

[@Hylxg]

Kamaro not anymore

[@kazdaman01]

Which one then?

[@Hylxg]

kazdaman01 Ru’s piano version

[@devilishlyzexy]

Absolutely gorgeous!!! I have never heard music that's as heavenly as this. I'd have to say without a doubt that this has to be the best song and game soundtrack ever created for a video game. It really is in a whole realm of it's own. I haven't even played the game, but I always listen to the soundtrack when I'm walking somewhere. Thank you to the composer, the pianist and the Chrono Cross team for creating such a wonderful thing.

[@kcfob]

he is one of the main creators of it, pay atention, damn he didnt "got" it somewhere, he DID it

[@ChickyKiller]

Anyone here in 2019? Still love this piece!

2023 still winning this masterpiece

[@Andlekin]

2022 checking in, still the best rendition of Time's Scar.

[@ArtasYan]

Amazing! I quote this as "The best Scars of Time - Chrono Cross Piano" on KZbin. Not only that...his keyboard is fackin insane to the max. I've never seen a keyboard with sound quality to match a real classic piano O_O !!! His skills, and the errorless video recording is just 2nd to none from the many many Scars of time Piano vids.

[@tigereyes0209]

Always brings tears to my eyes, such a moving piece of music, i love it!

[@adboxerz28]

First let me say, amazing job! Definitely one of the best out there I've seen for this song. For those interested in eventually learning this, it's actually not that hard once you have a good base understanding of piano. Practice your scales and arpeggios every day AND learn to understand the theory behind them,learn as an many varied classical pieces as you can and songs like this will be a cakewalk.

[@emt3889]

Under cerulean skies...

[@hakan1]

u wanna know how badass this video is.. it doesn't even have an hq button and it's high quality without it, sharp and crystal clear not to mention how amazing the song was :D

[@spirallogic13]

Oh man, I got chills once you got to the fast part. And the soft piece of the song was played beautifully. Wonderful job!

[@bk3k]

This remains my favorite piano rendition of this song - and I think I first watched this video when it was new

[@jadyn23200]

beautiful... just beautiful i wish i could get it on my i-pod i would listen to it over and over what a wonderful song

[@avitron142]

Thank you for sharing my video! :D I had a difficult time finding the sheet music, and I didn't want anybody else to have a hard time :) Thanks and all the best!

[@mistaLE4point0]

my fav part is the bass drop at :28 - :30...that shit is so smooth. gotta love old games and good music, thanks for playing!

[@LAJHS]

this is the best piano version of scars of time, and i've seen many :P i LOVE it ^^

[@Nutbarrel]

what can i say... i've played this game since i was a kid and it had such an impact on me that once, the game was LIFE to me and the music of this game was SOUL to me....i don't know maybe it still is

[@jadyn23200]

i would kill to get this version of the song on my ipod you are a musical genius thank you so much for putting this on here for all to hear

[@marcosffoliveira]

I don't know if you still read the comments on your video, but I really think I need to express myself here. I heard/watched this video 5 months ago, playing my favorite instrumental music ever and got amazed. I can tell you that I already have my musical keyboard and started learning since two months ago. Coming back to KZbin and bumping into a lot of ChronoCross Scars of Time covers and watching most of them, and yet I came back to this video. For me, the best Scars Of Time cover we can ever find on KZbin played on a keyboard by a single musician... One single instrument. You know what, I'm used to ever like videos to support youtubers I like making more videos, but I think it's been more than two or three years than I used that 'add to favorites' for the last time. Perhaps this makes no difference on your life, you maybe just don't even care, but you played this amazing song that deeply touched my heart successfully I was a kid in such a way that leaves me speechless. I have three main goals as a keyboardist/pianist, and one of them is just playing this one song as good as you do. Your video really motivates me. See you!

[@eyerule123]

I am in awe at how great that sounds. Scars of Time is one of my favorite gaming themes ever, and you nailed it. Seriously. 100% nailed it.

[@izrafel1989]

so awesome...is one of my favorites songs!!! so cool great playing.

[@scifiknux]

So basically this is one of the best video game songs of all time, and I give you huge props. I'd die for the sheet music of this arrangement. This kind of stuff is what makes me proud to be a pianist.

[@sumitdas9428]

Very well played..its hard to resist the melody of this song.

[@OneSneakyBastid]

hands down the best i've seen, 5th time listening to it in a row!

[@-RenRen-]

This is GREAT! This is by far the best rendering of the song via piano that I had came across on youtube. The timing is so precise and right on the spot. Please do uploaded more of your performance ^^

[@fawziakbarsury2770]

2018...still listeing this beau music

[@The32deadrabbits]

Wow. I'm so jealous! You're fantastic!

[@marcoaranas]

OMFG i saw this vid a year ago and im still surprised how good he is! O.O the first time i heard this song i was like WHOA! and everytime i listen to it it never get's old! that is how good he is!

[@seri-ously8591]

When I first heard this more than a decade ago (I can't believe it) and even now, I find many people covering this not comparing close to this tita, the editor of this piece's. Many play it well but they tend to ignore the other instruments like the chimes at the start of the song and most of all the lower notes when played are not as intense which in the original piece, the bass of Scars of Time is very loud and heavy. This one is notable in that it sounds close to the original soundtrack.

[@kibashlee13]

it sounds so pretty and calming...i love listening to it. And good job, it must've been hard

[@Caio_Sono]

are you the fucking master Yasunori Mitsuda-sama!!????? it's absolutely perfect! T_T ridiculously gorgeous!

[@RisottoNero-z1w]

To começando a suspeitar que ele não vai responder.

[@SheepDiAsia]

I've been looking around for a good piano version of this song on youtube, and you don't disappoint me at all. Actually, I'm rather amazed, excellent!

[@PunCala]

Still a beautiful song. And I still think KZbin should have a policy that if you post a beautiful piano video you should always provide the sheet music or else the staff will eat your legs.

[@ravenchris001]

this piece is really toched and beyond emotional. It makes me speechless, good play!

[@AMCope37]

Still one of my favorites by you to this day.

[@nghiakhoihoang6824]

man that's very good wish i can play like that too..... i am learning it too but might take a while! Plus i love the game but never beat it...... keep going u rock!!!! ^_^

[@Chris0012222]

No problem, thanks for finding and sharing the sheet music! Yeah, I noticed where your version differs from the sheet music; it just sounds like there are some extra notes at 0:28 in this video, I'm sure I'm just not playing it correctly and need to work on it a bit.

[@diogoxrocio]

Congratz! You were PERFECT! The best I ever seen.

[@jirikivaari]

Surprised to see such a high quality piano piece on KZbin. Also well played altho the end was rather swift. I don't know if you boosted up the bass levels but it feels like the comping on low end is a bit too dominant. Anyway great job, I like the bit of impro on the melody. I also got Yamaha S90 ES and it has a great piano sound.

[@chubby2t7]

you are one of my inspirations to get better at playing my piano!

[@fajita2]

THIS IS ABSOLUTELY MAGNIFICENT

[@tc213]

Perfectly played, it could be featured on Chrono Cross Piano Collections if there was such thing lol

the most impressive thing of this whole video is how those chorono cross jewel cases didnt go flying off the keyboard at 1:09 .. at least 2 tubes of superglue were used in the making of this video

[@Kantizon]

best Time's Scar for solo piano I've seen ever.
