[@Sapphberry]

Happy New Year, everyone! I’m so glad to have been able to share this cover of the P5 ending song with you. The messages within it hold a special place in my heart, and I hope they reach more people who need to hear these words. A big thank you to The Consouls for making this cover possible. It means so much to me. 😭

[@thehappyknight]

oh wow. It definitely reached my heart. The words were very comforting. 💖 Thank you guys for this amazing cover!!

Hey Sapphire, I'd like to ask for a favor. Could I have permission to perform this at my senior graduation for high school? It'll be in 2021, but with a year to prepare, I really think we could make this work!

[@LightKing1237]

This song hits me hard Mostly cause it’s my senior year and I’ll soon be going off to collage and won’t be coming home after I leave.. edit: this song hits even harder now. I dropped out of collage, never moved back home and kept pushing through despite all the depression i endured. The reason the song hits harder now is because all of my friends from high school are long gone on their own journey in life and i dont talk to any of them but one, who now Im not close to anymore. Remember guys if you hold on life wont change. Your friend groups have to end and your friendships need to conclude one day.

This song has a such a warm and nostalgic feeling to it. It's like saying goodbye to some friends after you spend the day hanging out and walking home as the sun begins to set. I'm a college student who lives on campus, and I find myself listening to this track a lot when I'm on my way back to my dorm at like 4am. The place is dark and empty, but it's a pleasant kind of solitude. Sure, you feel lonely now, but you got people who care about you. You'll see them later anyway, so don't sweat it. Sometimes i listen to this song after a really stressful class or studying or something and the line: "Leave it all behind me" Just clicks with me mentally and it's like I can reset the inertia of everything that's bothering me and put my mind at ease. Thanks, Sapphire. I don't know much about the construction of music, but something about your smooth, reassuring lyrics and the bluesy style of this song hits just right. Please never stop making music.

[@JackOfManyGames]

When I finally beat Persona 5, after what seemed like being stuck on the last 2 palaces for an eternity, the last cut scene played out, Joker's friends saying goodbye and driving him back home. Then came the credits. GOD I love this game! As I'm setting through the credits at 1am, feelings washed over me. Happy because I finally beat the game, but sad because I felt like a grand and amazing story finally came to an end. The story of the Phantom Thieves of Hearts, characters who I fell in love with, have escaped death, ruin, beaten countless enemies, reformed society, took down a literal God, and are finally moving on to a normal life. Can we all just take a moment to just appreciate Persona 5 and the Phantom Thieves and how fantastic this game truly is? Thank you.

Thank you for all you do, Sapphire. I've been struggling these last few months not just with all that's going on in the world, but with the unfortunate suicide of one of my best friends and most favorite people. He took his own life in early July because he felt detached from the world and depressed after not being able to see his loved ones for months. He had big dreams and was actively working on fulfilling them. I related to and love him so much, and it's this song that helps me through those tough times. I'm able to see him on the other side now, and I know that he's tearing up and bopping his head to this song too.
