Kingdom Hearts - Dearly Beloved 2013

[@t2nerb721]

10 years later and still my favorite rendition of Dearly Beloved.

[@fruitsnacks155]

10 years+ ago and still making me feel all warm inside. thanks kyle.

[@johngoldfield6602]

best cat video I've ever seen

[@gold-src6388]

lol

[@selena-rq9pv]

John Goldfield llol

[@darthplagueisthewise6832]

The 2013 rendition is by far the best.

[@freegoldbug]

Obviously James And 2010 the second best.

[@wingchueng1]

Obviously James Agreed, it still is my favorite one after listening to 2016 version. also the only one I bought. New year, new chance to better looking forward tot 2017 version. like every year :)

[@baconman1919]

The 10 year may have been the best though

[@JesusChrist-qi8yo]

2019 and i still rank 2013 as my fav, 2010 as my second :)

[@byddv656]

In my position here my ranked after play them : 1) 2010 --> Just the best because the feeling in the end is just epic and incomparable. We hope a day an update ! 2) 2013 --> Ofc this is just breathtaking. As a whole the piece is incredible. 3) 2016+2012 --> Those are very beautiful with lots of variations that make them charming.

[@MrFlame5402]

11 years late but forever a fantastic version. truly draws out everything e flat major has to offer

[@MrCrasherdog]

I like how the scenery is placed. The outside world doesn't notice the soft atmosphere within a certain house. The outside is cold and winterish while the inside is warm and cozy.

[@caiusactinunwise1412]

I come back here once a year or so to appreciate this very art. Exquisite.

[@markfowlermusic]

lovely, wish my cat would stay near me whilst I play piano for inspiration, like you seem to be getting from him/her, or maybe its just relaxing for you both :) although your cat seems completely oblivious to any piano playing, its rather intent on washing itself, amazing.

[@WastedTalent83]

its not nice for you to listen to music while taking a bath?^^ isnt that the same for his cat?XD

[@markfowlermusic]

andrea piro didnt look at it like that, good point though ;)

[@WingedWithFireyMana]

To be honest, the cat seems to love the piano. Look at kitty's ears twitch towards the sound.

[@alee8685]

My cat sometimes listen to my playing on my knees :)

[@TeamPownageByGuides]

oh kyle.... never stop plx you changed my life in a very good way

[@TeamPownageByGuides]

ps: could u do a version again with matt? i loved your first where u derped at the end xD

[@MrEDWIN316]

I still remember the preformance of this song and love to came back an hear it. More then 10 years, time pass to fast. Hi from Mexico

[@ponpopo9499]

Square Enix should hire you, so you can play the menu title song for KH3. Just imagine..... It would be already Game of the year, only casuse everyone was stuck for a 2 hours in the menu.

[@marialvarez7954]

Oh my god hahaha i did that with the first kh game- id turn it on and leave it playing til i fell asleep- and kyle should do the music, he adds a soft yet strong touch in his music ;)

[@TheMrspacenerd]

Maria Alvarez Yeah, a soft version would be great for the final game. Sets the mood to look back at all the older games. And when the stronger part comes up you see how awesome the new game has become !

[@sidraines]

haha

[@MagicPaddles]

oohhhhhhhh kh3.. oohhhhhhhhhhh how my body yearns

[@Delsoonbye02]

Pon Popo sadly square enix NA is only a promotions branch. The real branch is in japan and they hire rarely : C

[@unusband]

Watched this at least 100 times over the last decade

[@Ryan692.]

6:46 lmao your cat is watching like "holy shit, this guy's good"

[@a.maxime]

It's a cat, he is thinking "dam those scampery fingers look delicious but that would involve getting up so..."

[@darializzyclaritadimitri130]

😂😂

[@juliapplefreak]

I feel like this song just took me on a journey... A majestic, beautiful, and intense journey...

[@TheSolidlad]

This is why whenever I want to listen to any kind of emotional piano piece on youtube, I first check Kyle's channel...

[@fair2guy]

GUYS- before you go looking for the sheets; take a second and observe- Kyle is not using sheets. Why? Because Kyle is using the music within his heart. Oh Kyle. Play for me. Play for me Kyle. Play for my heart.

[@Shuey272]

+fair2guy :'-C

[@Blasteroid01]

Bottom left of the screen on the wall, it's sheet music (possibly this piece but I'm not sure)

[@ryanspring5303]

+Vi The King Yep your right he keeps looking at it now n again. So fair2guy is either stupid or blind.

[@fair2guy]

ryan spring Do you also think that I am seriously requesting Kyle to play for my heart, knowing that my heart does not have ears? Yeah THATS RIGHT I AM

[@arksendis3211]

+fair2guy Own it!! :D

[@SrMiausis]

This is my favourite version of Dearly Beloved since I first heard it 10 years ago

[@Emblem113]

I could not stop staring at the cat the whole time because of how it looked like he was bobbing his head to the music, which made me love it even more. I hope you and your kitty live very long, fruitful, and happy lives Mr. *****

[@YouGotLikesFromMe]

This is by far my favourite dearly beloved cover

[@mrodrenzo]

The snowy cat background really makes this a vibe

[@catplantASMR]

I love this so much gahhh. I feel shivers.

[@EagerBadger]

Catplant ASMR very much so 😊

[@tarz1109]

Oh heck, even you’re here

[@IanSymons74]

This is still easily the best rendition you've had! i get goosebumps from every rendition but this one i could listen to for hours on end. You're a legend.

[@TheDarkenedRose]

This makes me want to say something that I always wanted to tell someone that I lost in my life. No matter what...darkness can be in our lives even if we don't want it to. No one has a perfect life and we all know that, but we have to go on no matter if the darkness gets the better of us. He would want that for me...he would want that for all of us. There is times when were down and sad but that's why we have bonds or our family...they help us feel better in our daily lives. I'm not going to let anyone make me feel small or weak...I want to be strong for the people I care about...I want to find the light in my life and I know I will find it someday. I have to move on...I can't keep mourning you...you understand...right? :)

[@_Smirky]

No words can really describe how amazing and gifted you are at this. You're so inspiring to listen to. Thanks so much for sharing this with everyone, Kyle!

[@tovacheney8507]

As a giant fan of Kingdom Hearts myself and kinda wanting to learn the piano myself... This was super inspiring. Though I am mainly a Cello guy Piano was always really cool to me.. All I can say is that this was awesome and incredibly cool to listen to... Have fun playing the Piano Kyle :) And good luck!

[@HughMungusWang]

Tova Cheney imma cello guy who found piano playing to be really cool too, HIGH FIVE :D

[@tovacheney8507]

Yaaaaaaaaaa :D

[@TheArcticKitten]

Tova Cheney yeah I can play piano but I'm only right handed and I'm also in orchestra :)

[@animegurl23579]

heyyy it's smirky!!! :D

[@Ognized]

still the best rendition

[@LordRump]

I loved that you added Xion theme to it. Two beautiful songs that happen to be in the same key. That mix so well.

[@haanswinn]

the cat took the spotlight yo kyle ru gonna take that shit

[@ayenawnomis944]

I'M WAITING FOR MY CHRISTMAS PRESENT KYLE. (Dearly Beloved 2016)

[@koekipper3757]

That cat has the best seat in the house.

[@KGTV-jj1yl]

lol😻😻😻😻

[@fuahuahuatime5196]

Wow, this sounds great. I can tell this guy really likes Xion's theme. That bit that he plays is really the most beautiful part of it. It all is but I get the most goosebumps hearing that part lol.

[@fufupower]

It's impossible not to see the years of work and dedication when listening to the development of these pieces. You're getting better every year, don't ever stop playing Mr. Landry. You're an inspiration to musicians and non-musicians everywhere.

[@DaveTheMedic]

At 6:35 the cat suddenly realized that you are amazing at playing the piano.

[@samapak7]

Without listening to Kyle's soothing music, I wouldn't have been able to survive senior year of high school. And considering I am still alive, I am grateful.

[@MoisesNieto]

Beautiful arrangement Kyle, it's incredible how much variation you can apply to a song mantaining its original feeling ;w; Definitely the best Dearly Beloved cover I'ever heard!

[@morgantyr]

Kyle everytime I hear you play I regret giving up on learning the piano. I lost so much motivation through my early teenage years. But every time I hear you play it makes me want to pull out my olf keyboard and practice. You have an amazing talent, thank you for playing these beautiful songs!

[@kcsoup3]

This rendition, with its quick little integrations of Kingdom Heart's most beautiful songs, was absolutely breathtaking. I never thought anything could surpass my favorite of all of your recordings, Dearly Beloved (Soft Version), but this was incredible. It brought tears to my eyes. I bought this a few minutes in. One of your absolute best. Kyle, bravo, and thank you for delivering once again!

[@ugapucca]

This song has so much sadness because of the nostalgia you get by listening to such a timeless tune to the KH fandom. It's a great honor to be able to see you play.

[@philam64]

Kyle, have you considered running a Kickstarter or some fundraiser for a grand piano that you undoubtedly deserve?

[@TheWhitePianoKeyProductions]

wow, this is actually an amazing idea! Would also have to include money for recording equipment

[@xswooshx]

Different donation levels could include free and/or signed CDs, inclusion in credits on the next album, Kyle performing an exclusive session for the highest contributors, etc.

[@TheWhitePianoKeyProductions]

private google hangout maybe, there could be a lot. I really think this can happen, just think if everyone donates just 1 dollar he will have more than money enough even. Everyone should just think of it as: I'm getting free 270 covers by kyle for 1 dollar that I donated.

[@FullExtension1]

Awesome idea! Hopefully he sees this and truly considers it, im sure everyone would be more than happy to donate more than 1 dollar ahhaa, i certainly would

[@albaberna1408]

Lewis Todesco I would certainly donate a dollar

[@SamYungOfficial]

Stunning as usual!

[@w-iz]

That’s gorgeous

[@w-iz]

It’s been 12 days I have been sleeping to this wishing to dream abt me playing piano like that

[@standfirm5506]

Bro im still hearing this time to time, love it ever since 2013

[@phat_cat_5485]

Welp i just discovered your works and am incredibly impressed. Going to buy your 2012, 2013, and 2015 on Itunes. I have played versions of this songs for all my daughter when they were baby's to lullaby them to sleep. And now the combined 30min min with those 3 performances will be their new melody to whisk them away into the land dreams.

[@LuioRose]

You don't know it, Kyle, but your dancing fingers have been guiding my feet and arms for years. You've saved me.... Again. One day, I hope to meet you so I can personally thank you for saving me... from myself.... Dearly beloved.

[@lara6683]

5:18 ohhhhh yesssssssss

[@alessandrociarrocchi7246]

E si, è molto bravo!

[@chyo4077]

ALESSANDRO CIARROCCHI Beh,non si può di certo dire che sia un ragazzo senza un dono. Nice :)

[@user-vy8wj5wb2i]

Enjoy the music on your twitch streams, amazing piano too.

[@raulbenlliure8778]

the best version ever. Over the last ones. Please move to spotify

[@apollinarian]

This.... Just.... Nostalgia all around everyone, all around. QuQ

[@FandeJay]

My grandfather just passed away, not two days ago. Your music helps me get through it. Thank you so very much for sharing your incredible talent.

[@CeceDoesArt]

It's like he's serenading the cat

[@pheonixfyre1634]

Omg I literally burst or laughing when I saw your comment lol XD

[@L30NK3NN3DY]

This made something lurch within my body; try to separate itself and go through the door your music opens and I can't follow. There's no describing the feeling your compositions give me. You are my favorite sound.

[@skeetbarlow3350]

snowing outside. cat on the windowsill. cozy piano nook in the corner, surrounded by books. damn thats a comfy feel

[@angryprogrammer7788]

This is the best version you've made for dearly beloved, amazing!

[@austinsirois4099]

This is so beautiful; I cried. Thank you Kyle, for gifting this world with your beautiful music.

[@dylansnyder1034]

The only thing I can't understand about this whole image is why there would be any dislikes on this video... Even if someone didn't like this song, the talent it took to play it deserves a like, or at the very least, not a dislike. Great job Kyle.

[@lara6683]

5:00 prepare for turbulence. The good kind.

[@mulleralban4703]

Wow, 7 years ago and you're still rocking on youtube!

[@briannariederer059]

You CANNOT feel stressed, tense or scared when you look at a sleeping cat....or really, it doesn't matter what the cat is doing, just looking at him/her makes you feel serenity

[@hithereimrice]

You are insanely talented! Now... Where's Dearly Beloved 2014?

[@hithereimrice]

Hopefully! o: Looking forward to it ^^

[@hithereimrice]

***** So I forgot to make that last comment a reply xD

[@GuitarLordB]

Kyle, I really hope you read all of your comments, because seeing all of these people crying because your music is so beautiful must be amazing.

[@MllGilfy]

OMG! This cat and this song are awesome! *A*

[@woaaap]

It's one of the amazing things in the world.. some guys want to tell me, there is no magic in this world, no piece of peace :D but there is. sometimes, i loose myself in the dark. but there are people, sharing their talents. it gives me hope, everytime.. it's a pity, that so less people know you, kyle. you are rly amazing! never stop, please.

[@kupotenshi]

I love that you mixed some of Xion's theme into this, thank you for putting an unique twist on this song every year. Happy New Year Kyle!

[@BGirlKitKatt]

Kyle this makes me cry.... every year i love your rendition of this. I know that when i get married I will have you there playing the piano for me.

[@BenChanViolin]

Breathtaking. You're one of the most creative and gifted pianists I've ever known, and that's honestly saying a lot coming from me!

[@Kitejrpaladin]

I am a huge fan of your Violin and Kyle's Piano you should both do a cover together.

[@BenChanViolin]

Stephen Ramos You've read our minds... :)

[@Zucifer8]

Roshea lmao! He doesn’t have the range!!

[@nikwazowski3022]

i lost my dearly beloved yesterday.... i'm thankful to have this to comfort me

[@rowthargames]

To be honest I feel like they will use this song if you allow them in the third and final installment of kingdom hearts. Only a theory since it was announced in development in 2013. A beautiful piece, would be a great reminder of this amazing and thought experienced series that is Kingdom Hearts.

[@iasonasa]

***** spoilers mate! :P

[@beatbone96]

***** Is this the truth? I hope it's not the last, this game is legendary

[@Sanjura45]

SGMRecords It said to only be the End of the Xehanort Arc. I highly doubt it will end there since the game has obtained such popularity. I'm excited for what else they will do with the series

[@rowthargames]

That's what I meant in the first place. I meant the end of the Xehanort Saga. No one mentions anything about Kyle or if his music will be used in any future games.

[@benidouniverso3680]

with no doubt this version "Dearly Beloved 2013" is the best one you've made until now. congratulations.

[@tianlong9659]

From all of your variation of Dearly Beloved... This will always be my favorite. It is an honor to watch the growth of a great musician such as yourself... With love, your fan :)

[@hellfromshiryu]

Indeed!

[@derianlee2849]

Couldn't agree more, I come back to this video at least monthly. What makes this the best version for me is the very short, underrated transition at 4:52. It really sounds like a "spiral into chaos", very fitting for a series like KH.

[@shewinterwolf]

I was only listening and suddenly I took a look at the screen and saw the kitty and omg, I felt so warm idk... everything about this is perfect. I love you Kyle and I love your hands.

[@onobonono]

You have no idea how happy I was to see this (especially on the last day of the year)!! Also, KH 3 incoming!

[@detroxx96]

Vi este vídeo los primeros días de Enero de 2014 cuando me dirigía al aeropuerto para ir a vivir solo a otra ciudad y entrar a la universidad, vez que lo veo o escucho me acuerdo de esos momentos cuando me despedí de mi familia. Gracias kyle por darme algo para rememorar ese momento en la vida.

[@alvarofernag_art]

Happy New Year from Spain!!! Momento más esperado del día.

[@alannawalter4838]

...Wonderful. Amazing... Words tend to do no justice to music in many cases. Looks like a happy cat and a man who breathes music. Literally brought tears to my eyes. Thank you. You can see on his face when he finished that he felt it all along the way and was pleased

[@MultiPlatGamerGuy]

That was truly the best cover I've heard for Dearly Beloved. This is such a wonderful composition!

[@cristiansilva9557]

This song to me explains life as a whole from birth to death, reason I feel this way is how the song starts simple but then progresses to a more complex piece as it becomes reflective as how everything was so simple when we are young but grows more complex as we mature when other emotions intertwine and then the end as it slowly starts fading like a dying fire going out till there’s nothing left is also reflective in our elderly age dying out and withering away. Gives such an emotional but bittersweet feel that everything has to come to an end.

[@VijaMC]

It's already december, can't wait for a 2014 version :D

[@xarrox123]

+1000 Though this version is still as incredible amazing as ever!

[@KingBunnyPeople]

I played piano for about a month 6 years ago, I didn't get into to it well enough, no motivation. The simple fact that songs such as this and Clannads Dango Daikazoku are available for me to play and shown by you in all their glory has made me pick it up again. Hopefully I can complete songs as well as you!

[@tristanfava2927]

PLEASE release The Courage of Joanna! That little taste at the end was too epic to ignore!

[@kylelandry]

It's released!

[@tristanfava2927]

***** Oh! I apologize for my ignorance in not following the link. The song is beautiful! Thank you!

[@michaelrush5386]

@@kylelandry Please, please, please release the sheet music for The Courage of Joanna. I am literally about to buy transcribing software to be able to print it off. I will buy it in seconds if you do!

[@Therayquazamasta]

A masterpiece. Year after year. Very few people get to be as talented as you are, kyle. We are truly blessed to have your music.

[@jtxp]

you play so beautifully, i think i have a crush on you XD your cat is lucky gets to hear it live

[@TheBatmanMan1]

I understand that this entire video is the best part of this song, but starting at 6:52 is hands down my favorite part. Anything with Xion brings me just past the verge of tears.

[@bennemann]

Damn it Kyle, you make it so impossible to pick a favorite version of your cover! Please try to be less ingenious in the 2014 one so I only have to worry about choosing between 2010, 2012 and 2013.

[@jonathancayaban7997]

Alternatively, he can make 2014 sooooooo ridiculously good that 2010, 2012, and 2013 sound like trash.

[@Multihuntr0]

Jonathan Cayaban That. Can. Never. Happen.

[@blueman07ful]

A tradition that does not need to be broken! Way to go man.

[@xplodax]

Haha, kinda weird because just an hour ago, I finally started playing Re:Chain of Memories from the 1.5 HD ReMix!

[@OfficialJab]

My condolences.

[@trademark091]

Gratz! I'm still finishing up my playthrough of KH FM. Currently on Hollow Bastion right now.

[@crazyboiT]

I got it for christmas :D

[@DeathlordMiopic]

In my opinion this is my favorite version you have made, been coming back to it ever since 2013

[@ZZazot]

They should TOTALLY use Kyle's version of Dearly Beloved for Kingdom Hearts 3!

[@Verbatimorgish]

Again, the year my daughter was born. This one is most special to me, tears every time.

[@benbraun125]

omg ... this makes me cry every f*cking time ... and of course when its played by the best piano player of the world, too *_*

[@ThatDamnSasquatch27]

to be honest, I didn't really want a Dearly Beloved 2013. I was so obsessed with 2012's version, that I thought it would tarnish the attachment I felt towards it. to the contrary, however, this just astounds me. I've never imagined this piece played like this... thank you again, sir. for lack of a better phrase, you never cease to amaze me.

[@Blubbpaule]

Happy New Year from Germany! :D

[@yukineswan]

this is my favorite cover of dearly beloved

[@amelinedebu1557]

omg, i can't stop listening, it's so powerful!

[@territerrywhite6495]

Simply beautiful sir. Dearly Beloved is my favorite song period. Got tears in my eyes.

[@pinkmoontribe]

Not only do I love the music, but your cat sitting there is also soothing to watch!

[@mavincio1844]

This is brilliant, not only does he have the skill to play the piano but the creativeness and intuition that goes along with it; and you simply cannot teach someone intuition, this is fantastic.

[@ApexPredator1000]

Nearly killed me at 6:50-7:10 - did NOT expect that theme to be merged in....holding back...the feels...

[@silviazolam]

Dark Aegyptiacus Which theme are you talking about?

[@ApexPredator1000]

It sounds like Xion's

[@BurgerKingFootLettuce69]

It's called Vector to the Heavens/ Dirge of the Fourteenth when battling her. When she dies, the variation is called Musique Pour la Trestesse de Xion (Music for the Sadness of Xion). And you can hear it throughout the whole 7-minute mark if you really listen :)

[@yanninho9]

Amazing performance Kylelandry i listen to your piano since i was 15 or 16 and im now 22 your the best

[@SergiBeCa]

HAPPY NEW YEAR KYLE !

[@turek9393]

Literally the most amazing piece of music ever.

[@firefern21]

Imagine not watching this everyday

[@chasehamrick4321]

Kyle. You have inspired me to continue playing the piano until i'm as good as you or close at least. I can't read sheet music so I have played by ear for the past 4 years off and on but i have never been inspired like i am right now. Thank YOU Kyle for inspiring me. I hope you keep playing and follow your dreams.

[@AlainChomik]

Happy New Year Kyle and thank you for all your nice videos ! Greetings from France ! Regards, Alain

[@enshk79]

05:17 to 05:24 - one of the most perfect moments in all of MUSIC. Touches my heart like nothing else! Thank you, Kyle 🙏
