Purplepuppet The creations of Japan, especially anime and games, have been the moral Mr Miyagi's or Yoda or whoever is your guy, of so many of us. I learnt to not give up by watching Bleach, I learnt to care about people from Naruto, I learned what adventure is from RPGs. If japanese game and anime were just slightly incorporated into school systems all over the world, just about 30 minutes a day, the world would be in peace.

"I always talked about you, Zidane. How you were a very special person to us, because you taught us all how important life is. You taught me that life doesn't last forever. That's why we have to help each other and live life to the fullest. Even if you say goodbye, you'll always be in our hearts. So, I know we're not alone anymore. Why I was born... How I wanted to live... Thanks for giving me time to think. To keep doing what you set your heart on... It's a very hard thing to do. We were all so courageous... What to do when I felt lonely... That was the only thing you couldn't teach me. But we need to figure out the answer for ourselves... I'm so happy I met everyone... I wish we could've gone on more adventures. But I guess we all have to say goodbye someday. Everyone... Thank you. Farewell. My memories will be part of the sky..." - Vivi

Hearing this in the car in FFXV brought me back here, and this rendition instantly brought me to tears. The generation that grew up with Final Fantasy learned so many positive lessons and values from these games at a time when they weren't recognized as anything but a childish waste of time by most of our parents. It's funny to think how deeply wrong that notion was. These games are master works of art, easily surpassing the depth of many other mediums, and more than that, they bring out the best in all who are touched by them. I'm thankful that they will always be a part of me.
@XiongGou7 жыл бұрын
Christopher Wilbanks hearing your description is exactly how I have always felt. Especially about people believing there is no significant value because it's a silly waste of time, it's just a video game. It's not though, these games teach about sacrifice, love, selflessness, honor, overcoming fear and doubt and doing the right thing just because! That is why these games have the following they do. Just wish modern games would grasp this concept of a game being more than just a game.

Nobuo Uematsu is genius. I met him at Distant worlds. Such a happy and inspiring man. He is everything you hear in his music. I asked him what this song meant, he replied: " This song is about making it through the rough. Remembering you have somebody out there when times are rough. " When we heard it play a little later in the night, I cried. It holds so much sentiment!

Some people, like Kuja were so afraid to die it drove him to do insane, evil things in order to prevent it. In the end I felt so sorry for him, because he felt so alone and had no hope. He was the real victim. If he were not so afraid, would he still have been a villain? And nope, you are not alone. I appreciate you.

This conductor is everything that a conductor should be. I've heard it said that with professional musicians like this, you really don't NEED a conductor - they're perfectly capable of playing the piece in unison without the baton. But this guy... he's not exactly directing the music, he IS the music. And that's how I want to live my life... I am not directing the music, I AM the music. We are part of it, it is part of us! So what is the difference? You are not alone! This brought tears to my eyes today.
I'll never forget this song and the moment in FFIX that it accompanied. It was such an incredible moment, both heartbreaking and beautiful to see Zidane try to forsake his friends and handle the burden himself. But after everything he's done for them, they'd never let that happen. It was wild to see one of the most positive main characters in the entire Final Fantasy universe take a turn and really hit rock bottom, only to have his friends save him.

The original was very conflicting in nature as it emphasized Zidane's confusion about who he really was. This one is very nostalgic and somewhat mournful at the same time. It's starts off almost as if it's trying to bring back a sad memory and then trying to showcase the good hiding beneath it towards the end. Both are great in their own right, and it only showcases the fact that Nobuo Uematsu is one of the greatest composers in video game history! Thank you Uematsu for having shared your musical talents in one of the most popular video game and video game franchises we have ever seen!
@My2Cents111 жыл бұрын
I agree. The original was really conflicting. It was part sorrow and despair, and (at least what I got from it) anger and frustration. This version gave a bit of a different feel. They seem to do this often when transferring Uematsu's work to a full orchestra medium, in order to make full use of the ensemble. This time it worked beautifully, but other times not so much. Sometimes it totally alters the mood for which the music was originally written. Like with "Aeris Theme". The original track was the musical manifestation of pure sorrow and grief. All the instruments wept in heart wrenching harmonies as if the world has lost the only thing pure that was left in it. The orchestral remake is all bombastic, full of timpani rolls and piatti crashes. I thought that was a total botch.
