[@OffRezWolf]

20 years later, and the music for Aeris still chokes me up inside. I remember restarting FF 7 three times because I wanted to believe there was a way to save her.

[@JupiterKnight]

OffRezWolf yes

[@MergedElement]

Well there might be that option to save Aeria within FF7 remake. Let all hope so.

[@passgo8507]

Full tilt crying for me. As a child, I was scream crying at Sephiroth for doing that. It destroyed me.

[@recca7]

@@MergedElement I don't know why you would want to change the most iconic moment in FF 7, but yea there might be a chance...I really hope it doesn't though. No eye will be dry if they use Tina's version of aeriths theme during her death. That was really soemthing..

[@reallybigjohnson]

If I recall there was a way to bring her back at the very end but you had to do some very specific stuff. I literally never finished the game because I was so pissed that they killed my first virtual girlfriend.

Only the power of an open PS1 can save Aerith😞 These inaccurate ff7 references max my limit meter and you will all suffer a painful demise😠

[@ChibiJenova]

Absolutely amazing medley! I couldn't help but cry when Aerith's Theme and Main Theme of Final Fantasy VII started playing, it filled me with so many feels! ❤️

[@jeremytichy695]

I have never commented on a KZbin video before but.......but this I felt like I had to....the way you played the boss theme filled me with so much power and then you cut to the saddest part ever and I wont lie you captured the way i felt 20 years ago watching her drift away into the water......dont ever stop what you do this was brilliant

[@Ericstone00]

"Her" death was tragic, but this just made it so much more moving, I almost cried. Thank you Tina.

[@HVYContent]

That's actually a new FF7 weapon She's attacking the whole time

[@zackgeldhof1206]

She attacked my damned heart when she started playing Aerith's theme! T_T

damn even after 15 years not hearing it i still recognise it very well done

[@truehappiness4U]

You should play the FF7 remake!

[@rodmongodwood]

@@truehappiness4U yeah i heard it supposed to be super good..... but i really really REALLY dont like the modern fight systems

[@truehappiness4U]

rodmongodwood ohh... I understand that! I don’t like to play these games either so I watch their cinematic cutscenes cause DAMN BOI THEY ALL LOOK HANDSOME AS HELL WHUUUUUTT!! Rufus, Reno, Cloud Strife, Zack, Sephiroth... HELP they are so hot! Have you watched them in the remake? Boy be prepared... especially when Reno comes in sight, the theme of the Turk plays and that sounds so sexy with Reno.... I’m a girl btw and yeah dude I cannot stand their handsomeness! I love the story as well of FF7 remake so I just watch the cutscenes instead of playing the game... I let the gamers do the gaming via streaming platform so I just watch them play and follow the story with them

[@malinibai1133]

She just keeps getting better. And better. And better. Magnificent musical performance and visual art here. The underwater part looks like a Monet water painting.

[@mikex155]

Tina, this is amazing... the costumes, makeup, and settings were PERFECT!! my childhood was filled with Final Fantasy, and VII made a HUGE impact on my life. you made me feel 14 again, from the anticipation at the beginning, to the bang your head at the dope jam of the first boss battle, Aerith (actual Japanese translation, for fellow western fans) dying, yes, we ALL cried then, don't be a wuss... all the feels came back! Thank you, Tina :)

[@mikex155]

Only thing i'd ask is a followup video with Fallen Angel (Sephiroth's theme), Yuffie, ya know... all the other tasty bits of that slice of digital heaven :)

[@CrazyDeeDee]

mikex155 Aeriths theme 😂 i totally teared up. Yup Tina got me right in the feels.

[@UnknownRemnant]

I love that she is playing from inside a Mako Reactor...

[@SageNemesis]

They all sounded great, but damn Aeriths theme on the Cello sounds so freaking good. That was my favorite part for sure.

[@BruceClark-lb1gg]

Mia Asano is always on the cutting edge of redoing all forms of rock and roll , she's absolutely the greatest violinist on the planet

[@jaredfranco5121]

just breathtaking. The music with the cello, plus an exhilirating video performance as well, floating with pink fabric in the water and playing with a dripping cello on the shore. (standing ovation).

[@someguythatwasmorbed8251]

Final Fantasy Medley, Those Who Fight Further and Aeris' Theme in one amazing and extraordinary piece. Incredible job as always, Tina!

[@peachesandcream8753]

You missed out Clouds Theme which it transitioned into, so smoothly done, at the end of Aeris' Theme.

[@artisticlyill]

I didn’t even watch the video and I’m already feeling nostalgic

[@sentamericuna]

Can we just appreciate this girl put a cello underwater i can't 😂😂😂

[@chrisbuttonshaw2088]

she said it was a junker.

[@dannynguyen9382]

She’s not a “girl” girls are for little boys like you. She’s a woman.

@@danielleclough714 I was going to reply to this a month ago, but I forgot, (someone like my comment, I got curious about the conversation.) But, yea there were two voice's in my head. First voice, "That is a beautiful way to send of a Cello." And, the other voice : "NOOOOO!!! NO! NO! NO! STOP WHAT DID IT EVER DO TO YOU!!!" And then a single tear is slowly shed.

[@mowaterfowl1479]

The main theme has always been an extremely inspirational piece to me ever since I first played the game (Japanese version). Then when I heard 5:24 for the first time I was immeasurably moved and in awe. A perfect ending to a masterful performance.

[@claudiorabaglino6079]

This is the most beautiful video I have ever seen.

[@taelius2663]

Going from the performance of “Those Who Fight Further” to “Aerith’s Theme” is like going 50 MPH and then slamming into a wall.

[@danielinthemaiden9039]

A moment in the Aeris sequence actually took me back to when I was playing the game. Whether you like what this woman did here or not, she deserves to be respected, not just for her musical talents, or even her love for FF7, but also because she (or her crew) went through the effort of creating visuals that resembled aspects of the game. Bravo, Ms.Guo! Bravo to everyone who participated in making this masterpiece!

[@jeremiahbutts3893]

Absolutely stunning, you never fail to put on an amazing performance Tina.

[@saugor1]

FF7 will forever remain as one of the best jrpg games there ever was. And your beautiful medley is a worthy tribute to that game! Thank you for this wonderful performance!

[@thewanderingfairy]

I'm in tears, haha. Tina is an ethereal creature; the world does not deserve her. FFVII's main theme always puts me in a densely nostalgic mood and she captured the sweeping poignancy so well. Those last couple of minutes... ugh! So marvelous!

[@jaspr1999]

I am rarely moved to tears, but you have an amazing talent that is so emotional that it always does so. Thank you very much.

[@Duhemsounds]

So much energy in Those who fight further and that crying violin sound for Aeris Theme + the beautiful video edition, that's an awesome performance

[@ポッポやです]

凄い！、この映像と演奏に釘付けだ！ Awesome wonderful footage and performance It is wonderful this wonderful picture From JAPAN with love

[@nullshock3381]

I love listening to this while I'm riding my motorcycle.

[@djstuntfox]

Did you know she also played the main theme in the new Wonder Woman theme? Its titled "Is She with You." It's so blood pumping.

[@truehappiness4U]

If the thumbnail would be another picture, this would receive more views... as it deserves the more views because the time spend in this is just wow

[@truehappiness4U]

True! I thought in myself as well that she needs to change the thumbnail to something epic so people click on it

[@bluesdealer]

Amazing rendition and performance, Tina! It showcases both your musicality and virtuosity (traditional classical and heavy metal shredding) in such a dynamic and perfect medley. Can I like this 100x? Google, pls fix your upvote function!

[@tanyaloranca5783]

I can't watch this and not cry during Aerith's part. This whole video is amazing. Thank you for a wonderful performance. I would love to hear more FFV11 stuff, but thats just because it is my favorite game.

[@sobreaver]

Final Fantasy really was a masterpiece with it's audio (and everything else). Great performance Tina.

[@ViewtuberOG]

wow, that escalated quickly. thanks so much Tina for your rendition of my favourite childhood series.

[@DarkMagicSeptember]

Incredibly epic and beautiful. The final part where you play Aerith's theme brought tears to my eyes.

Woooowww it’s amazing, I died with the drowning cello 😭 it’s so beautiful

This is one of the most beautiful pieces and I love the rock part, but the classical start and ending is absolutely amazing. One of your best videos, too!

I’m just about to finish the game and then I find this. So cool when that happens.

[@slammerjaxlive]

I'm new to this kind of music, never really thought of listening to it, outside of hearing these in a sound track. Its incredible. I'll still listen to my classic rock, but I'm buying your cd and keeping it in my truck.
