[Voice cover] Melodies of Life - Final Fantasy IX - Emiro Shiratori

[@raphdaray3578]

BEST Cover. Can't stop playing it over and over again.

[@simonbelmont0993]

HOW?! *_HOW_* does this only have 32k views?! KZbin, get your shit together. Fantastic cover, my dude. Keep 'em coming!

[@egoroffie]

No. Guys. Guys, you don't understand. This is perfect. This is how Melodies of Life was meant to be performed! Watch the ending cut scene for Final Fantasy 9, and you'll see that from the written dialogue leading into the end credits song, it suggests to the viewer that Zidane is the one who's about to sing. "How did you survive?" "I didn't have a choice. I had to live. I wanted to come home to you. So, I sang your song. Our song."

[@AndreSchachtner]

Ahhhh

[@OdinVonAlexanderVG]

damn, you are just right, we can say that the guy with the robe is zidane, omfg, I'm going to cry

[@ff.mychael]

you are so right! I always thought the same. Will replay for the tenth time

[@topdog2007]

i got the remaster and replaying it all over again i forgot how much a gem this game is i just got to fryea area and about to fight batrixt wish me luck cuz i know she going to kick my ass XD

[@ChanRawrer]

Its sad, but nothing really top Vivi's ending, the saddest ff moment of all time.

[@zeldein]

The moment your voice started, you earned my thumb up! Awesome!!!

[@andersonvictor3688]

Lyrics: Alone for a while I've been searching through the dark For traces of the love you left inside my lonely heart To weave by picking up the pieces that remain Melodies of life , love's lost refrain Our paths they did cross, though I cannot say just why We met, we laughed, we held on fast, and then we said goodbye And who'll hear the echoes of stories never told? Let them ring out loud till they unfold In my dearest memories, I see you reaching out to me Though you're gone, I still believe that you can call out myname A voice from the past, joining yours and mine Adding up the layers of harmony And so it goes, on and on Melodies of life To the sky beyond the flying birds, forever and beyond So far and away, see the bird as it flies by Gliding through the shadows of the clouds up in the sky I've laid my memories and dreams upon those wings Leave them now and see what tommorow brings In your dearest memories, do you remember loving me? Was it fate that brought us close and now leaves me behind? A voice from the past, joining yours and mine. Adding up the layers of harmony. And so it goes, on and on. Melodies of life. To the sky beyond the flying birds - forever and beyond. If I should leave this lonely world behind Your voice will still remember our melody Now I know we'll carry on Melodies of life Come circle round and grow deep in our hearts, as long as we Remember

[@gzilla6631]

the first male version of this song that i really like good job

[@yironavsluayon01]

I am thankful that your channel was recommended to me by KZbin. Your cover had me crying. It had me recalled memories in my youth that I cherish until now. It help me remember the faces I wish I can still see today but unfortunately they already moved to a higher place. Thank you nonetheless. :)

[@GlacierRain]

Your performance brought me to tears. Thank you truly for loving the game and for a performance that brought back the sweet memories of me playing this gem in my childhood days afternoons and the faces that have come and gone since then. Your work deserves alot of love and praise!

[@SamuraiAitrus]

Your cover of this song is AMAZING!!!

[@gordo4107]

Beautiful voice ! My fovaourite still Dragonsonf from FF14 Heavensward your cover is wonderful ! Your bass voice is awsome.

[@fransnainggolan7980]

thank you very much for singing this song, makes me remember how i decided my ambition when i was a senior high school

[@OldMysticFantasist]

Your performance gave me several waves of goosebumps. Far more than did it justice.

[@Jay-sb3rh]

Still the best cover. So magical and dreamy.

[@maurocapriotti6908]

One of the best cover of this song I've ever listened to. Your voice is amazing

[@fe.1]

Yes, indeed!

[@mommozz123]

I am a sucker for female vocals, but this is just simply the best cover of this song.

[@BlastDrummer13300]

Totally in love with your cover of this song!! The nostalgic feeling when I recalled playing FFIX during my childhood times.. Good old times.

Excellent cover of a song that holds a dear place in my heart. Didn't know what to expect but your voice is great, you're clearly skilled and I hope you get more recognition for what you do. Thanks for sharing! (and yeah that FMV where Garnet hums... Forever my favourite part)

[@polarlightwolf3735]

not know anything about those movies or games, from where it is but this song, in your perfomance, one of my favorites :) So nice!

[@AndreSchachtner]

PolarLight Wolf Thank you so much fluff :)

[@xenyadot]

Been wanting to be able to sing this for 15 years...now I know how It sounds...thsmk you.

[@OdinVonAlexanderVG]

[@mariaflor7339]

Omg Im crying so hard this is beautiful!! I never really played ff9 because I was too young at the time, but I remember watching my brother playing and how I felt enchanted by the history. Really cried at the end and my brother never understood why lol 😂😂 and now Im crying again because OMG those are some reeally old memories brought back Anyway really good cover u got there my dude

[@DrunkenRhyin]

Oh my god. I can hardly believe you sang both this song and the Dragonsong cover. Your range is amazing.

[@akoCmudshake]

This made me wanna go straight to the eshop and grab this game again.

[@hongvandamn]

just wonderful. such a beautiful cover! enjoyed it :)

[@Schraddel-87]

amazing cover i still cried best version i have ever heared

[@emduquemack7514]

Wow this sounds so nice!! Wonderful work

This was an AMAZING cover! I normally don't like male vocals but you did a great job.

[@MrOkashiisama]

This is so underrated... Keep up the good work XD

[@mago6794]

素晴らしい！ 感動的！

[@ShaspioBorderwolf]

Just got a bit of nostalgia and looked up FFIX covers again. Still one of the best covers I've heard ^^ Hope I'm gonna see you at CFz, by the way. I'll be hitting the karaoke again, naturally :3

[@katiecote5770]

wow your voice is awsome :( keep the great work :)

[@adadays3139]

This is surely worthy perfomance! Best regards, really.

[@10k-Noodles]

I'm not exactly an expert. I'd heard other male vocalists cover it and it just never sounded right. They'd have to put a twist on it [metal cover] so I didn't think it was a song a dude could really do w/o sounding like a chick. But I knew within the first few seconds that I was going to like this. Congratulations. I wanted a male cover so I knew how I should sound every time I sing this song. You're the current gold standard under that criterion. Now I just need vocal lessons and a nicotine patch and we're solid come shower time. Also. I apologize for making you wait 9 years for this comment. I didn't know you were out here all along.

[@10k-Noodles]

Arigatou, Robed Bro-sama.

[@Ixu]

So sweet. Like the song demands. I always cry with this game.

[@michaelrosenstock9187]

Try playing this video with the original song version. It's like a lovely duet.

[@Dav1d612]

I've never tired your songs. Do you have Spotify? 💕

[@stigler30]

Why can't they use songs in Final Fantasy games with male voices that aren't metal or hard rock?

[@MilesMariae]

seriously, is this the same guy singing this as Eyes on me? Seems like a different voice to me...

Great cover, but if it were a duet, like with a guy and girl singing then it'd be perfect

[@WastedTalent83]

hum... All these nice voices singing melodies of life, and none of them have got the feeling of the song :( I like his voice, but not his interpretation.
