I'm suprise there aren't a lot of covers for this song!!! It's so good!

[@MaygracetheMagicalMess]

Me too!!! It's been around for so long and there's an official instrumental. I would have thought there would be more covers 🤔

[@HolyDragoon98]

Those wings... I want them too.

[@Daniel-qg2ng]

Even after 11 Years I will never forget Zack Fair and his ambition to be a Hero. In Real Life he is like a Person that helps a lot of people whatever happens and that should be a good Exaple for every Person in this World ❤

[@eyesofahriman8205]

I've waited 15 years for this. Thank you so much for making a silly man's hopes come true. What you created here is irreplaceably beautiful.

[@hedgehogsonic11]

Your original cover of Why is how I found this channel years back The growth in voice and lyricism is astounding

[@MaygracetheMagicalMess]

I really appreciate the feedback, thank you so much ❤️

Step 1: Listen to song beginning-to-end Step 2: Cry Step 3: Fav This Video

[@u.a.perfectace7786]

Holy shit. I am fucking crying listening to this again. Absolute banger and the lyrics are hitting home with my life at the moment (from the perspective of my daughter's mom. These lyrics are what she did for me despite all the pain we put each other through). I think this game had a tag line. Men cry not for themselves but for thier comrades. I won't forget Thank you. Goodnight. Zack.

[@Maverick55Moose]

Such a nice job! I love the emotion you put into this! Keep up the good work 😊

[@MaygracetheMagicalMess]

Thank you so much! It's a song that's very dear to my heart 💗

[@larcenie]

Oh my goodness… I’ve had a rough few months what with bullying and another thing I’d rather not talk about, and I just want to forget it all. This song is like a remedy for all of that, to forget it. I didn’t think so much emotion could fit perfectly into each word while staying so true to the lyrics’ original meaning. I want to forget about all of the pain and horrific things that have happened to me and listening to this almost feels as if I can, just for a little while… it’s really reassuring, it’s like getting a warm hug from someone you’ve known for forever. I love this beyond words I can describe, I’m now going to sit down with my acoustic guitar and sing these lyrics to myself and hope to feel a little better, even I already do now. everything is wonderful

[@AntiDoctor-cx2jd]

Thank you for making this. I like your softer singing better than the more aggressive original.

[@AntiDoctor-cx2jd]

easily the best version out there, but I could be biased from not understanding any japanese.

[@sanisadikovic]

Zack is an unsung Hero ❤

[@larcenie]

I teared up as I listened to this, and I cried… but it was a good cry. It felt good, like my need to worry was fading away. 11 days left and I’ll be okay

[@wrenmatrix5136]

YES YES YES!! I really loved your original cover so I’m excited to see a new one!

[@MaygracetheMagicalMess]

I'm so glad you liked my original cover. Hopefully this is a decent improvement! ❤️

[@caelumdraws6413]

You it's a good cover when it's 2am and this song got me tearing up.

[@Fain255]

Deserves way more views!

[@roseanne5835]

Are you excited for Rebirth? You did really well on this cover too!!

[@MaygracetheMagicalMess]

Thank you!! I am excited, but I don't have a PS5 yet :(((

[@roseanne5835]

@@MaygracetheMagicalMess Ah same! I’m really going to try and avoid spoilers, so I can’t wait to see what the game offers. Thanks for the response, my sister loves your music so much and we hope you continue to keep singing!

If this was on ITunes I would purchase it immediately 😭

[@laylablank563]

Girl what happened? The song is stuck on an endless loading and won’t play. Did Square make you take it down? Please I didn’t get the chance to download it! This is the best cover of this song by like 1000%! I need it back!!

[@MaygracetheMagicalMess]

Hey thank you for telling me, I didn’t realise this was happening! I’ll look into it :/

“Happiness is a losing game” holy shit that hits hard

Thank you so much 🥰

you are welcome

[@PizzaAnimation]

Amazing

[@Chorizo1]

That was lovely :)

[@GamerGirls-cx8bs]

How did you translate the lyrics? Just wondering because everyone's version has different lyrics. Also, this is the beset English version of this song that I've heard. Great job!

[@MaygracetheMagicalMess]

Hey there, I'm glad you liked my video! So I don't "translate" the lyrics. I base my lyrics on existing translations that other people have made. An English translation of a Japanese phrase will usually make it have less syllables, so you can't use them to sing the song. So I get creative and change it around a bit to make it match the music :)

[@GamerGirls-cx8bs]

@@MaygracetheMagicalMess Nice, you did a great job!

[@Suiteren.]

Me when zack dies (my mom wondered what I was sad about)

[@demonprincess9680]

For some reason, this song feels like what Zack might say to Genesis or something

[@ragnatouya5050]

Can your remake these song again!

[@sakuracardcaptor4709]

Points for trying ❤

[@SplitPegasus]

I like the rendition, so hear me say that. However, there is one glaring issue. In the verses you are flat. Such as "When I look into your eyes". The way eyes sound is a bit off-putting. Sing with more emotion and meaning and that flatness might go away. Think of the emotion Ayaka is singing with. You can feel that emotion. Similarly you can feel the lack of emotion when people sing as well.

[@sakuracardcaptor4709]

Good attempt, but here's the actual lyrics in English: kzbin.info/www/bejne/f6qaeKqce6ihpKs

[@MaygracetheMagicalMess]

Hi there, this is a common misconception. The video you've shown has a "translation" of the lyrics. What I've made are "translyrics". Translations are literal and usually don't match the tune of the song, so they sound awkward when you sing them. That's why people write translyrics- they are crafted like actual song lyrics, which rhyme and sound more poetic. This song doesn't have official English translyrics, so creators like me write our own so we can sing the songs in English.

[@pipoarnold7313]

enjoy the cover... or back to your anime.

[@KingOfHeartsTANK]

Flat and out of tune, not synced with the instrumentals, vocals balanced above them so you cant hear the instrumentals.
