Yuki Kajiura - Open your heart (live)

[@courtneycolvin6226]

You can always see Yuki Kajiura having so much fun when performing. She's always smiling from behind her piano. Like she knows she chose the perfect people to sing her songs, just the way she wanted them. :D It's moving and awesome.

[@TheSeeking2know]

I enjoy watching the lives to see her smile.

[@dg3584]

多重の構成力という面において、梶浦氏は本当にすごいと思います。

[@TheSeeking2know]

Kaori's charisma is all over the stage and made this performance more memorable than it might have been otherwise.

[@summerlove9860]

open your heart to eternal dimension open your heart for love and affection open your heart your every emotion open your heart for tears and rejection come to the grace of heaven's eternal fantasy come to the grace of earthly devoted harmony

[@jahlaha]

Saw this at AX2012 live, was amazing. It was particularly good because the entire audience actually stood up for this song and "participated" and also got the singers to respond -- everyone opened their hearts in a sense.

[@mayusocarina]

That's awesome man. I've listened to this concert so many times in my life and Yuki helped me get through them. This concert is special to me and I've seen it so much, what I am certain on is that there was magic in the air, everyone was not just pinpoint on it that day, but were in total harmony with eachother. Kajiura seemed to have some ease in her mood, a lack of tension, I wonder and fear if modern day she's lost spirit.

[@bluejjay]

I absolutely love the little head nod Kaori does at 1:23 It's like she's really in the rhythm and charismatic in getting the audience immersed.

[@TheSeeking2know]

Yeah that head movement was so cute like she was really telling them the lyrics. Kaori is really good at that kind of audience interaction - she's the best of this group.

バイオリンもエレキも、そして当然、歌姫も素晴らしい。また、この夜のよう世の中が来て欲しい。そんな願いが一層強くなった。五分すぎのハイトーンのコーラス、本当に素晴らしい。生で、もう一度聞くまでは、絶対・・・・・。

[@ami66316631]

四人とも感動する歌声で…泣きそうになるね。サントラと声変わらないとこもすごいけど、バイオリンもすげぇ

[@TheSeeking2know]

3:22 My favorite part of the song as they all come in singing the same words so it’s powerful. 4:18 This part too, with the voices together. ❤ 5:50 The voices, the slowdown led by the drums, and Kaori’s charisma and tracking the drum’s final heavy hit with her hand movement. Kaori loves performing. No shyness it seems.

[@symphony534]

This is seriously the prettiest song I've ever heard. This live version is amazing as well. It's not very often that the live version of a song can capture the same emotion as the studio recording. Good job guys! :D

[@drinkdrownsoda]

Dot Hack Sign has such a good soundtrack

[@TheViewingspectator]

Its one thing to hear a recording, but to hear an actual performance live... absolutely astounding.

[@bellealengasa8853]

October 2019 but still watching this 😊☺️ and loving this song

[@samsungapple4840]

600k views are mine only lol

[@rainbowrei]

KAORI is so cute,and the chorus is amazing. I didn't notice about this song before,but I found it more and more enchanting after listening many times.

[@TheSeeking2know]

1:55 See Keiko looking towards Kajiura and smiling. When Kajiura returns with a grin, Keiko seems to feel a little shy/embarrassed and turns towards Kaori; maybe she was feeling emotional because she touches her eye as if wiping away a tear. That was a touching interaction. 2:06 Keiko and Kaori turn to Konno Hitoshi on the violin and notice how Kaori (and immediately) Keiko both start to dance with the groove rather than just swaying as they'd been doing. Nice transition to give attention and connection to the solo/music. This is why I say Keiko was often attentive of responsive to Kaori's movements and vibe in this live. It's part of that sisterly tendency I think Keiko naturally exhibits, which reflects in her capacity to duet/harmonize with guest singers (LiSA, Aimer, etc), by adapting to their movements as well as their vocals. 2:11 Yuriko Kaida seems influenced also and starts to dance more intentionally instead of just swaying, while Wakana smiles and starts to move more with that head movement side to side. Kaori totally changed the singers' energy on stage! 3:45 Giving attention to Korenaga Koichi's solo. 4:03 As Kaori and Keiko go on a total dance off to Korenaga's playing, Wakana has this cute/funny head toss dance she's doing! She definitely improved in her dancing cues as the years went by. I personally think Kaori's presence in these early years influenced the others to be more expressive and engaging with the audience (just my thought from this first live) in a deliberate way, since she was so good at that being so young. See how she kept gazing into the audience.

[@METROHHH]

I can't believe I didn't realize that until now, I really think she shed a couple of tears at that moment :´)

[@NguyenTrong1801]

I totally understood the reason why this song was chosen before an encore…. United heart.

[@gummydh]

Kaori's voice is always awesome.

[@ImpossibleCarl69]

for real, although I like all of the singers, Kaori is easily my fav out of the four

[@XxWillScarletSoundxX]

Kaori is precious 🥺❤️

[@TheAoyoc]

Always will remind me of 2007, riding the city bus to university everyday. I had an hour to kill on the bus everyday and I LOVED listening to the .Hack OST

[@minhakos]

still loving .hack and it’s amazing ost in 2020 😢 the feels i get from this song 😭

[@AlreadyOver1]

I listen to this song at least three times a day. That and Angel Gate. They are both really beautiful songs that I am absolutely addicted to.

[@JayeMallard619]

Something happens to Kaori's voice when she sings the "tion'' bits in "redemption" and "emotion" at 1:12 and 1:32 that makes her sound eerily like Wakana.. ;) I just adore how versatile she is.. :)

[@TheSeeking2know]

You are right! Kaori was having fun with her vocal tone in that entire vocal line, just switching and modifying her vowels. That's why I enjoy her doing separate dual-harmonies with Keiko (low notes and weighty belts), light and fragile high notes with Yuriko Kaida, and now she mimics Wakana too. I still say that my favorite 3-part harmony in FJ is Yurioo-Keiko-Kaori, because of the blend.

[@kazezutto]

I love Kaori's voice :D

[@XxWillScarletSoundxX]

She's amazing 😍

[@Spamdalf91]

I can hardly watch this without tearing up, this song is pure bliss and nothing but.

[@jackfruitnim9148]

The world needs a Yuki Kajiura and Yuko Suzuhana collab.

[@TheSeeking2know]

The world can't handle that kind of awesomeness! But I can!

[@14cheetah14]

I think I am madly in love with Kaori Oda. I'm sure I'm not the only one... Beautiful in all possible ways.

This is one trippy song. Feels really good to listen to it while inebriated.

[@fitriaahsani1286]

ahhh how i miss young Kaori. She, along with Keiko, was so cheerful and high-spirited, contrast to the calm anego Yuriko Kaida. she was also high-spirited in Sanhora's Roman...... the last time i remember seeing Kaori, she wasn't this cheerful, both in YK live and in Sanhora's live. well i didn't check her solo works yet....

[@Xeakerr]

What happened to kaori?

[@TheSeeking2know]

Kaori was a ball of energy and expression. Very Charismatic and had the vocal chops to back it up. I wonder where she's from in Japan. Her work in Sound Horizon is what made me know her quality as a performer and vocalist, when on the same stage as heavyweights like REMI, RIKKI, Mari Endou, Haruka Shimotsuki, and MIKI Masuda (my personal favorite). I realized she was much more than just the belter in Fiction Junction. Revo's vocal requirements are a bit more demanding in terms of stamina, role playing, character work, vocal range and stylistic / genre variance for each singer. Yuki Kajiura's work is more complex harmonically. I mean Kaori singing virtually the whole of "The Endia Knights" (not sure if that's the correct name, or at least all the leads ALL BY HERSELF, was a great feat on its own. Her magnus opus in my view is her performance of "Miezaru Ude”. She explored her range and dynamics and expression in an all-out energetic performance.

[@MyAzhra]

That is what i like with live because it does give a new dimension of the song ^^ I just love this song !!!^^ My gratitude to you for the share ^^
