Final Fantasy XI - Memoro de la Stono: Distant Worlds (Piano and Vocal Duet)

[@pokiigames4167]

Why this still hasn't blown up is quite frankly beyond me... this is incredible now as it was back 7 years ago!! Listening to it again and again lol

[@BoswenMcBastok]

Still a joy to hear, over seven years later!

[@dangerousmoogle2876]

When it comes to people covering Uematsu's work only one person has my stamp of approval and that is you. Amazing job.

[@SecondPlaceYuya]

Really awesome rendition of this piece. Both vocals and piano parts are fantastic, but the piano arrangement really is what this is all about.

[@CobaltLotus]

Five years late to this video, but thank you for doing such a beautiful rendition of one of my all-time favorite pieces of music. Depression is difficult, but being able to think back on my favorite memories of FFXI, thanks to this song, is a huge help. Again, thank you.

[@Randomname1357]

KZbin recommends this to me 9 years late, but holy cow thst was great! Bravo!

[@audio_buck]

Absolutely fantastic, I'd bet the FF composers themselves would be deeply touched by your committment.

[@amawolfangledemonandhuman3233]

Seas invite in the evening sun To light the somber abyss. Clouds dance up with the heavens' stars, Chanting an air of joyous bliss Water fades back from blue to jade, Guiding young rainbows high. Flowers bloom into reds and whites, Quenching our hearts as they run dry. Angels chained by a beast locked in slumber. Sin washed away by the swift flow of time. I may know the answers. Journeys over snow and sand. What twist in fate has brought us To tread upon this land? Blessed by light and the burden of shadows. Souls abide to an endless desire. I may know the answers, Though one question I still hear. What twist in fate has brought us To roads that run so near? Distant worlds together. Miracles from realms beyond. The life-light burns inside me To sing to you this song; To sing with you this song; To sing to you your... song.

[@KaueMelo]

Amazing how underviewed this piece of jewelry is 💙👏🏻

[@vannesgreave]

The best cover of this I’ve ever heard!

[@bonyktapludo4449]

Grandioze! Ĉi tiu versio estas vere belega, gratulon al vi ambaŭ pro via laboro

[@missmaylin4635]

Oh my sweet kupo... How dare you give me such goosebumps... O_O ♥ Bernadette's voice is pure gold. >

[@OstilMusic]

+Lee Ann Lehotsky (Maylin) A crime I do not regret committing haha. We're working on another song right now. :)

[@bernadetteegger6745]

+Lee Ann Lehotsky (Maylin) Wow, thank you for that compliment, really makes me blush ^_^ >//< :3

[@RaoPS]

[@Marc_Papeghin]

What an amazing arrangement and gorgeous performance, wow ! Bravo to both of you !

[@Thatguy101987]

I just replayed the Chains of Promathia missions, still the best expansion and sound track in FFXI

OUTSTANDING PERFORMANCE! BRAVO!

[@hmimich]

Bravo to both of you. Amazing performance. Especially that voice. Wow. Please, give me more eargasms in upcoming videos !

[@amawolfangledemonandhuman3233]

I’ve just got to say BRAVO! I’ve never heard such fine piano playing and singing before in my life.

[@dadaxxxdescamm7550]

best song from final fantasy, final fantasy 11 we love you !! please let this game on forever >

[@branxpath11]

Absolutely love the way you play. The amount of passion and emotion you put in this piece, you can definitely hear it! And not just in this piece alone, but in all the songs you've played like (eternal wind -my fav thus far). Brenedatte (sorry if I spelled her name wrong >

[@JordiFrancis]

This is insaaanely good!

[@danielstigall3373]

Absolutely outstanding the talent you have never give it up I wish I could do something as beautiful as this.

[@cloud10121979]

I love that song !

[@davidgartner9019]

Fantastic performance! Stirs great memories of FFXI! :)

[@nezkeys79]

4:54 when i first heard this melody in the game it was really hard to fight tears, especially "snow and sand"

[@Wibbletaru]

Bravo! This is my favorite version of Memoro de la Ŝtono (*'-')/

[@creandoCOSASdiy]

Bravo. Both of you are amazing.

[@BrunoHalpern]

Stupendous! That was incredible!

[@OstilMusic]

Thanks! We have a new one in the works right now, just waiting for the mastered audio. Hopefully will be up soon!

[@katapilaro1823]

Du talentaj musikistoj ! Dankegon ambaŭ.

[@OstilMusic]

Thaaanks!

[@budakbaongsiah]

katapilaro Whoa, actual Esperanto speaker

[@revol113]

Perfection. Well done sir!

[@ScheherazadEify]

This is honestly such an amazing arrangement~ I subscribed 30 seconds in! :P

[@sergiodrumon6287]

omg amazing, should have 2 milion views... keep the good job

[@Peter-w3o]

I enjoy this so much. Thank you to the both of you.. Remembering Evelyn ❤️

[@standeely]

This is so beautiful, just.. wow. I got goosebumps.

[@Farflonger]

beautiful! bravo! the most fantastic ffxi piano ive seen played and the vocals were mesmerizing & hauntingly beautiful. As someone that lived in this world for 7 years online, this couldnt be a more amazing experience!

[@gendr3]

Totally agree with that 😥 so much memory coming back to my mind

[@stormlord1984]

That is some amazing piano music! I dare say, I prefer it to the original! You sir are a Magician!

[@Drakub]

Incredible!!!

[@AlbionLegend]

Magnificent, both of you.

[@chrisbabb8043]

I can't wait to see more. Both of you are amazing.

[@chrisbabb8043]

+Chris Babb a quick note - Bernadette you really need to advertise yourself more. You are excellent!

[@OstilMusic]

+Chris Babb Thanks! I'll let her know you said so haha. I'm actually doing some travelling next month and planning doing a stop over in her country. We're thinking about doing some music while I'm there, trying to figure out what song to do. Hopefully it works out. :D

[@bernadetteegger6745]

+Chris Babb Thank you very much :3 I'm glad you liked it :D

[@chrisbabb8043]

+OstilMusic What about doing something from Final Fantasy Vocals I: Pray? It would be amazing to hear you guys figure out Promised Land. Amazing song!

[@OstilMusic]

+Chris Babb I've never heard of Final Fantasy Vocals. I just checked it out and that's pretty sweet. The Promised Land rendition is really cool. I think we settled on doing Suteki Da Ne, the Distant Worlds II version.I need to start writing/practicing cuz I'm running out of time haha. >.

[@salsa3499]

very good,her voice is like an angel,your a good player for music, I wish u a good day

[@Neterim69]

Amazing, thank you guys ^^

[@Composer1992]

Beautiful work!

[@corumjaelhenirsei344]

Bravo ! Quelle interprétation ! Bravo !

[@rhone733]

Beautiful.

[@rie2905]

omgg i love her voice!

[@OstilMusic]

Me too! :D

[@rie2905]

+OstilMusic Are you the one who's playing piano?

[@OstilMusic]

+xXItzCakethatGalXx Yes that is me playing the piano in these videos haha. :)

[@rie2905]

Wow! really? You're really feeling the music!

[@sephress]

Bernadette Egger, You sang wonderfully...You got more one fans now

[@bernadetteegger6745]

Thank you :) :)

[@WarrenHall12]

yep, i love it

[@crystalclear8813]

Amazing.

[@daigoro789]

This was just fantastic guys! :)))

[@firnnovien]

The piano part is awesome，would it be possible to share the piano sheet?

[@Stealtham7]

This is my favorite FF song of all time and this piano arrangement is amazing well done sir. I would pay you a ridiculous amount of money to make sheet music to your arrangement (very serious) I would love to play this at a recital.

[@euchale]

Very nice as always :)

[@OstilMusic]

Thaaaanks, alttab represent!

[@RenatoGrigoli]

Mankas esperantaj vortoj. Bona versio, tamen =)

[@Q4M4Q1]

let fall some tears

[@Forae_]

OMG that voice though 😮

[@OstilMusic]

Kristy Hiscox We did another song you can find on my channel as well! Aaaaand were actually working on another one right now. That should be done on a few weeks hopefully. Thanks for listening! 😊

[@RaoPS]

Both of you were excellent! I've gone to the distant worlds concerts on multiple occasions and the piano arrangement is something I've wanted terribly bad to learn. Your edition is near 100% and so I'm hoping to learn by ear and sight from your video! Would you happen to have the unedited video too with you both just playing and her singing? I'd love to study both separately if possible for a potential improvisation. :^)

[@OstilMusic]

+phillysmost911 Thanks! I don't think there are many piano arrangements out there for this distant worlds version unfortunately. I haven't really checked though haha. Unfortunately I don't have the individual video files anymore though. :( Hopefully you can somewhat see what's going on with my poor video footage haha...good luck!

[@RaoPS]

+OstilMusic Thank you even still for uploading this arrangement! It'll take me quite some time, but your camera angle will do me justice ;D

[@lrgtheboss1034]

Ty

[@shikigami6359]

Anyone know of a way to transcribe this piece to piano sheet music? Really want to learn it

[@cocomomo5787]

感動した！！！

[@marksin4166]

[@irishjanelee8967]

If this song was more popular your version would be, too. =(

[@pinnacleexpress420]

Instead we have dudes fanboying over weight of the world and every cover of it has 100k views lol I think this song is better and just on a way less mainstream game xD

[@Margaret_Hemenway]

YAY :D

[@manofmysteryyy]

WOWWWWW

[@xCIxFreakshow]

Time to go resub FML

[@Jonaythan]

Sounds beautiful, friend. Sadly, I believe its the CT sheet music book arrangement. A great book, to be sure, but it got Peaceful Days wrong. Different key, same melody, and lacking most of the sharpes notes. Still a beautiful rendition

[@XiaosChannel]

aww i thought it would be in esperanto

[@kingbahamut6188]

Only the intro

[@zacharylawrence]

What does she have against holding notes for their complete duration haha, it's like Anthony Kiedes singing or something

[@HitoSarg]

She holds them for the proper duration. Get your hearing checked.

[@LethinGabbins]

Ffxi soundtrack is amazing,

[@Drakub]

Where can I download this??

[@OstilMusic]

I uploaded the mp3 version to dropbox for you! You can get it here: www.dropbox.com/s/k7c5xhx1ad45v4w/Memoro%20de%20la%20Stono_OstilMusic.mp3?dl=0 Enjoy, thanks for listening. :D

[@budakbaongsiah]

Real shame that you did not sing the Esperanto part of Memoro de la Štono. But then again, almost everyone who did a cover of these two tracks did not sung it.

[@Ey605]

where did you get the sheet music for piano??

[@OstilMusic]

+E Yang There aren't any. I do it by ear and write it in my head. I make a few little notes in that notebook you see on the piano but it's just tiny reminders for certain parts since the song is so long haha. :P

[@Ey605]

+OstilMusic hahah yeah the song is quite long and your transcription is really nice. by any chance do you have chords?

[@OstilMusic]

+E Yang No I don't, sorry. And what I wrote in the little book is just mainly nonsensical reminders for very specific parts haha. I don't usually write down anything unfortunately. :(

[@Ey605]

+OstilMusic nice! you have great ears. We really enjoy your final fantasy piano covers! Can you do some FF10 covers?

[@OstilMusic]

+E Yang Haha thanks a lot, glad you enjoyed them. And you're in luck! I'm actually just finishing up another collab cover with Bernadette (the singer in this video) for an FF10 song! It's just being mixed at the moment, but hopefully will be uploaded in the coming week. It's Suteki Da Ne, based on the Distant Worlds version. I think it's going to sound great, Bernadette really has an awesome voice. :D

[@el5anto]

To sing to you your song...

[@imperialzephyr1400]

I know al of the lyrics to thus song

[@pinnacleexpress420]

Ten

[@nezkeys79]

11 was so magical. it;s a shame what happened to it really

[@loomingdeath1758]

shes a bit too fast on some parts but still good

[@Barchetta_mimic]

フィック！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！

My man on the keys showed up, but the vocals were subpar at best

[@eck0_kc348]

Fluas nun sango senkulpa Sur Vana’diel, vasta ter’ Tremas la tuta mond’ Pro l’ plago en desper’ Preventas gin Nenia sort’ Haltigas gin Nenia fort’ Sed tra la nokto tempesta Brilas jen stelo de glor’! Kantrau brutala kri’ Fontas jen kant-sonor’! Stelo brilanta, kanto sonata: Revo kaj prego por ni! Vana’diel! Vana’diel! (Long line of piano then the English lyrics)

[@BlankCodeBar]

:/ I love your skills on the piano. I think this song is amazing... But I won't be coming back to this video. Something in it is grinding on my nerves.
