"Eyes on Me" from Final Fantasy VIII by Dale North

This is my contribution to Successor: Final Fantasy VIII Remixed, a new project from the Materia Collective.
Liner notes:
I feel that Eyes on Me is one of the most beautiful love songs ever written. What makes it special is how it sways back and forth between shyness and boldness, both lyrically and musically. I wanted to try to capture that unique kind of movement and feeling in my arrangement and performance, so I put myself on that stage in my mind, and sang like someone special’s eyes really were on me.

Never thought I'd hear Squall sing! This is fantastic!👏🎶

[@DapperDevNull]

This is the only version I can listen to now because of the "Was it real or just my final fantasy" line

[@smoothplay9756]

"Was it real or just my FINAL fantasy?"

[@xenyadot]

I do like how he worked the extra syllables in.

[@darkwulf2k]

Why can't I love this like a million times!!!

[@ShadG]

What a beautiful rendition of that song! Thank you.

[@gilgamashu1435]

FF8 remastered is close and lead me here to this beautiful version.

[@RosieSquall]

Wow, just wow.

[@BinnyBongBaron_AoE]

For years 've hoped for a 'full' version of this song, Man, you'd make my fucking day if you ever did that.

[@Red88Rex]

This is probably my favorite song from the album.

[@hotdoh9325]

HOLY SHIT! This is the first male version I've heard, and the verdict is: OUTSTANDING!

[@roygalvan154]

I LOVE IT! It sounds like it should be the main theme of a good kdrama

[@TomHord]

So, so great. Brings back all those fragments of memories, amirite?

[@GrayFoxGamingHD]

Fantastic , thanks for reminding me how much of genius Nobuo Uematsu is. Great Cover.

[@Mechawill735]

listening to your voice makes me feel very nostalgic, I remember the first time listening to your Wind Nocturne or Luna's boat song many years ago.

[@elementfayt]

Incredibly haunting, wonderfully exquisite.

[@alonsojett]

This is really quite wonderful.

[@ar.1491]

I love your cover of everything's alright. Keep up the awesome job!

[@InfiniteOniGaming]

Dale, this is quite beautiful. I've told you several times, but I just absolutely love your work! I've heard this before, but felt compelled to this again. Again, thank you!

[@kingmaker3936]

Beautiful rendition, Dale. Thank you for sharing with us. Can't believe I found this only recently.

[@MarkCerqueira]

Really awesome rendition of this song! You are quite talented with that buttery smooth voice of yours!

[@theysaidimasian9766]

Take my money already! no srsly, good job mate, really stepped up to a whole new level, keep it up, you deserve so much more. More power to you my friend!

[@heyjeySigma]

very beautiful cover! i like how original you make it sound. First i loved your Earthbound "Home again" remix i listened to many yrs ago, and now this. great talent =)

[@smoothplay9756]

Damn, this is beautiful. FF8 should be remixed with music remixed like this :)

[@kairili]

As usual, your vocals are wonderful and smooth. great cover of Eyes on Me for the Successor album!

[@DameanBerry]

Amazing...

[@katherinekennedy3882]

Damn Dale! Your vocals sound like those awesome 90s Disney film vocals. Awesome cover :D

[@VuVHO]

Wow it feels like months since your last video. Glad to hear your skills only got better with time.

[@Leon-tv5xq]

[@HatchuneMiku01]

[@arkane9b]

Gonna get me a dose of that honey voice.

[@Dreamfall71]

Honestly better than the original

[@Chuggington_Videos]

YES MORE DALE NORTH VIDEOS

[@GeorgeHale1984]

Never thought of a male cover of this song before, but you pull it off. Fantastic arrangement and performance.

[@edja.marthias]

I've been your subscriber since ages, Sir. And I always listen to this cover over and over again! Never get bored of it! ❤ Please kindly also cover "Melodies of Life" (OST. Final Fantasy IX), Sir 🙏🏻 I've been soooo long waiting for your cover version of it and consistently checking it almost everyday on your KZbin channel whether you have finally covered it and uploaded it or not 😭 Please, if you have free time, I would be very grateful and super happy if you would consider my request, and so would all Final Fantasy big fans worldwide 🙏🏻 Thank you very much, Sir ❤

[@TEDDYBEAR-fb1fg]

great

[@KyrieEleisonTV]

I've just found you on Spotfy and I came here to say thanks, good job, you're the best!

[@gohideto]

Wow so great, hope listen "you're not alone" or "Melodies of life "from your arrangement.

[@LunarHaruhi]

OMG did you sang this?! This is awesoooome, made me cry a bit :'')

[@PresidentialAI96]

You're the boss

[@Ashschannel1289]

Did this come off of Spotify?

[@gadzoke]

My god.. The nostalgia... The FEELS.

[@LinKeyla]

I love this version, especially your remixed intro. Would it be okey for me to also have that melody if I give you cedit for that? (I'm also working on a cover).

[@EvertheWise]

Me and my fiance are going to perform this song as our first dance for the wedding. Hope to have a video and share it to you.

[@DaleNorth]

narutostarfire I hope to see a video!

[@maynnemillares]

Eyes On Me is usually sang by a woman. It is cool to hear a male version. Thank you very much.

[@barbouille0082]

Juste. ..magnifique ! magnifique travail. dommage pour le petit solo qui a été raccourci. mais bravo quand même. !!!!

[@xmeiyin]

oooooh.. :x someone hold my bucket T_T

[@DaleNorth]

xMEIYIN is that bad or good?

[@xmeiyin]

I dunno. I love you man 😭

[@DaleNorth]

xMEIYIN haha thank you 😂

[@Sabivee]

[@DaleNorth]

No you

[@mattd.8478]

This is amazing Dale, but I've been wondering what happened to Mint Potion? Alchemy is still one of my favorite songs ever.

[@DaleNorth]

Much more Mint Potion coming soon!

[@mattd.8478]

***** My hype cannot be contained Dale! YESSSSSS

[@pspspskibin]

Hello Dale!!! I like the arrangement. Where did you get the instrumental version of this?

[@DaleNorth]

I wrote and arranged, performed and recorded 100% of everything you hear

[@pspspskibin]

@@DaleNorth can i purchased the instrumental?

[@pspspskibin]

i want a cover of it too and ill credit you appropriately

[@markiplierSINGSbadly]

is your background mostly in rnb?

[@DaleNorth]

Japanese music, actually

[@markiplierSINGSbadly]

+Dale North Interesting! I find a lot of thematic elements between your stuff and, say, the FF X-2 OST that are common to each other.

[@colleennewholy9026]

I find it ironic that there's 8 dislikes

[@xMissMaveNx]

Props for trying and kudos on a great voice (Thumbs upped!) but I much prefer the original with Faye Wong- no offense, just my nostalgia fueled opinion- will check out the album for sure!

[@PQD0408]

It is supposed to be a female voice, not male voice. "Eyes on me" are words from a girl's thought to her love.

[@BossWhiteGmbH1992]

no....just NO!!!! Sorry but the Original is soooooo much BETTER!
