God, this whole video just breaks my heart. The idea that Zack and Aerith would come back from the dead, so to speak, to save Cloud from his own depression and make him whole again is both sad and beautiful. My favorite part is at the very end when the lyric "I come to you in pieces..." comes on and it shows the scene where Cloud is struggling to crawl to Zack's side as he's dying. *SOBS* I love their friendship. Fantastic job. I friggin love it.
still give me chills and feels 10 years later and more. I truly love the friendship Zack and Cloud had. Its the greatest gift a friend can wish and hope.
When this video came out I was going through a lot of stuff in my life and this song and this video with cloud and Zack reminds me of all the hardships I went through my life after it's been so long 10 years.
So, when Cloud screams, I do like the same and just...the chills man, the movie, games...the feels are real. HUGE THANKS FOR THIS VIDEO! Yes, it makes me kinda sad, but in a good way. Can't remember of just ONE music video that makes me feel this way.
seeing Cloud's sad face makes me want to cry and give him a tight hug. i've never seen him make those kinds of expressions before and they are beautiful but sad. he should let his emotions out more. he keeps everything inside :-(.
@@RM-tj6ju ...i came across this video when i went to an internet cafe in 2008 or 9....its more than 9 yrs for me...but the comment was 9 yrs old...i'm 26 now.....
That's why even though he did save the planet, he still has that feelings of regret for not being able to save them. Then the story continues to ACC where Cloud left out of regret for not being able to safe anyone. It was Tifa who keeps on urging him the most to move on. Then with both Aerith and Zack saying the same, he was finally able to be forgiven. So at the end, Cloud does end up with Tifa. He does care for Aerith, but it was more of a mother figure, emphasized in ACC.
Well it's been years since I first faved this video, and i am still just as much in love with it now as I was then. Ihave to say it's one of my favs of cloud... hell it IS my fave of CLoud-o... It shows him in all his emotions, his torment and his uncertainties. Simply stunning and beautiful. Glad you took the time to make this. Thank you.
I like this video so much whenever I hear "Pieces" I mentally fill in all the voice lines and it's harder to imagine this song without them. As if the video made the song, which is truly special.
Ohhh... watching this again after a few months... this video makes it all feel so real. The characters have become like real people to me, and this vid was a big influence on that happening. Beautiful, and beautiful music.
The game FFVII is designed to have a love triangle between Tifa, Cloud, and Aerith. The reason why Cloud wanted to be a SOLDIER in the first place was to impress Tifa. But then when Zack's memories come to imprint on him, that's when Aerith come in because she used to be Zack's lover. Throughout the game, I do believe that Cloud himself come to care for both Tifa and Aerith. However, with Aerith's sacrifice, he blames himself for not being able to save her alongside with Zack
been watching this video for years now, and everytime i get the same sadness. In my mind this truly captures the pain and suffering cloud put himself through thinking that their deaths were his fault, and his guilt washing over him.
SO this was the first ever amv for FFVII I saw way back when I was 14, and 12 years later I'm watching it again and holy shit the nostalgia!! Thanks for basically getting me into the series, angst still cutting me deep lmao. I cant wait for the Remake!!
I Cried when I first saw this video, and now i'm crying even more. It may not mean much but here I go, you made this video on my little brother's birthday in 2007, and you remade it last year on my birthday Jan. 7. It's crazy to me. This song has a very strong message to me, and thank you. Maybe one day i'll find that message.
truly sad and beautiful. awesome vid! cloud went through so much, but he always comes out smelling like roses in the end. a true hero never to be forgotten.
"Maybe something will happen that can never un-happen; that scares you, doesn't it?" For those who dis Cloud for this, as a person who lives with this every day, getting out of that kind of mindset is hard, if not impossible. You freeze every time, and it takes so much to move again and face it.
It’s absolutely amazing how well this song fits with the video. It’s perfect for describing all the hell Cloud goes through as a character and why he’s so traumatized and distant most of the time.
The moment you're still subscribed to a youtube channel that hasn't uploaded anything since 10 years but you just can't unsubscribe because you're emotionally attached and still got hope they will come back someday
he never loved Aerith it was Zack who loved Aerith and cloud has a part of Zack inside him. Tifa is the one CLOUD loves. This has been made very clear by the creators in the FFVII guide saying that Tifa is the lover and Aerith is the mother figure.
So… I came here to relive the hype I had more than 10 years ago watching yet again Advent Children but having never played the games…. Now I just finished FVII Remake and god am i back here on the youtube from 10 years ago where all the emo songs are played on AC videos ! (This one was one of my favorite but I can’t find Shattered from Trading Yesterday where Zack says « Embrace your dreams and whatever happens, protect your honor » when the song is calm almost quiet !)
@creativityBrilliance You tube eliminated the HD video you made in my country :( Could you upload it again? i'm from Mexico and i really love that video you did some time ago. I would be really happy if i could just see it again. Thanks :)
Still my favorite amv type video for this game and movie although I remember a bit more stuff like the flashback with Zack talking but with the video but that's alright, did you have to redo and reupload it or something? Still really good nonetheless so good job
made me cry ... Zack's death/sacrifice usually does but this mvid is really well done good song to go with the clips used so 5* +fave and a heartfelt thank-you for sharing your vidding talent.
I come back to watch this video every single day. It's so emotionally deep, pulling at my heart strings. I wish I knew more about Final Fantasy. Cloud is a deep, emotionally scarred guy who I find myself always following his story. (btw, thanks for putting it in English ^_^) And you got me hooked on the song. Thank you, Creativity. This is absolutely beautiful... I can't find any better word.
aww Cloud man you have gone through so much and you still fight for the good you know the world holds. yet you blame yourself for your friends deaths. Cloud, I love you man^^
this video is THE MOST EMOTIONAL THING EVER! i cty every time, especially when i get up in the middle of the night to watch it CreativityBrilliance, you are truly brilliant
There are very few great songs out there that can get even better. There are also very few videos that can make a great song unforgettable. I'd have to say your video is one of those few. This is an amazing song, but as much as I like listening to it by itself, I just don't enjoy it quite as much unless I'm watching (or even just listening to) this video. Thank you for this masterpiece.
Even though I've seen this video a million and one times, I absolutely adore this video. Everytime, and I mean everytime, I watch this AMV it makes me break down. Although, I'm not sure exactly why, but I do know that it strikes that cord that not many things can. You did a very wonderful job. Immensely superb. I give you praise.
god ive played some of 7 and watched the movie over 10 times i have commented on this vid before but you truly did the best ff7 vid i have ever seen and shows cloud as he is ment to be, its so emotional and i agree with IIB3L13v3ll
this is the type of song that sweets this video and the sounds that you added makes it epic mate.hope that there were more like you!! keep up the good work and upload more with the same inspiration and more
O...M....G!!!!!!! That was one of the greatest videos that I have ever seen in a long, long, time!!!!! Freakin' AWESOME!!!!! I love how you put Tifa's line into the mix. Where you put the line gave it such a powerful connotation!
Ah... Marvelous! This really shows just how much Cloud has been through in his life... He may have lost alot... In the end that only helped to make him stronger... Cloud to me is a great hero, because how bad things got, and when it seemed all possible hope had died, and doom was near... Cloud never gave up and he beat all the odds.
Congratulations, this was from far the best video I watched about Cloud or FFVII plot. The song really goes well with video, and the original voices you added made it all better. I love all your other videos ^^ your brilliant!
Wow...that was impressive. And incredibly powerful. Cloud is one of my very favorite Final Fantasy characters, and you seem to have picked the very best song to describe him. Excellent job.
wow i was just viewing other tribute previously to this one and wasn't paying much attention to them, i'm studying for exams and I just had to stop for a moment and appreciate the emotions expressed in this vid lol wow amazing
*whipes tears* that was...thats just sooo beautiful..the best one of cloud ive seen till so far..and i have seen many..Im blown away..im in love.. Blessed be and a warm embrace
clud is by far my favorite video game character game character of all time and its nice to see someone capture what Cloud must feel like inside Great job!!!!!!!! 10000/10000
This was really well made, it was very emotional and I enjoyed it a lot. My favorite parts of your video would have to be the beginning and the end, the way you spliced the dialogue with the music was great. Keep up the good work. ;D
This came out in 2007 when I was 15, I am now 29 in 2022 and still come back to watch this.
All I ask please don’t ever take this video down I still come back to watch this video from time to time when I need to cry a little
God, this whole video just breaks my heart. The idea that Zack and Aerith would come back from the dead, so to speak, to save Cloud from his own depression and make him whole again is both sad and beautiful.

my love is cloud
2019 and this is still classic RUclips
Yes
2020....i was 13 when i first saw this....now i am 25... memories....i hope th creator is doing well.
@@meharsamba Ditto... and I’ve just finished playing through the Remake so the nostalgia is real right now
Wow, Cloud is so freaking cool! I love his haircut, his clothing, his way-over-the-top sword, everything!
Cloud: Are sins ever forgiven?
Vincent: I've never tried.
The scream in the beginning gets me every time.
7 years eh ?
Greatest Cloud video i have E-V-E-R seen!
Cloud is one of the best heroes ever created and you cuoght the essence of his neture and soul.
great job
When this video came out I was going through a lot of stuff in my life and this song and this video with cloud and Zack reminds me of all the hardships I went through my life after it's been so long 10 years.
Hope the creator is doing well I first saw this in 2008 I think, that 8 has changed to 20, and I am still here.
Cloud can be so... soft sometimes.... But, he's defiantly gotta be a very sweet kid inside... he's got to have a sweet soul to!
So, when Cloud screams, I do like the same and just...the chills man, the movie, games...the feels are real. HUGE THANKS FOR THIS VIDEO! Yes, it makes me kinda sad, but in a good way. Can't remember of just ONE music video that makes me feel this way.

Oh my god, this video is just perfect!!! Sums up Cloud and what he's gone through perfectly and the song fits so well. Well done!!
im looking forward to the remake but i gota agree that aerith CANT be saved, if she does then ff7 wouldnt be the same ff7 that we all came to love
When Cloud screams in the begining it brings tears to my eyes everytime its so heartbreaking :( but this video is amazing good job :)

It shows him in all his emotions, his torment and his uncertainties.
Simply stunning and beautiful.
Glad you took the time to make this.
Thank you.
this is beautifully put together. nothing can ever be more perfect! makes me cry. every. time.
you did good kid. I love the song, I love the game , and I love that movie. They all mesh and this works. good work and be proud. thanks
When Cloud Screams I swear man
The feels
every time I hear this song I get goose bumps
Cloud Strife Best FF character EVER!!!!
I like this video so much whenever I hear "Pieces" I mentally fill in all the voice lines and it's harder to imagine this song without them. As if the video made the song, which is truly special.

Absolutely brilliant! This is one of the best amvs I have seen yet, and I have seen far more than I can keep track of.
that is a beautiful video! the song fit Cloud perfectly! it was full of emotional! Fantasttic job! definitely one of my favourites!
you did a wonderful job of capturing true emotion...i cant help but shed a tear everytime i watch this
Just Bloody Fantastic!!!
Thank you so much for creating this!
been watching this video for years now, and everytime i get the same sadness. In my mind this truly captures the pain and suffering cloud put himself through thinking that their deaths were his fault, and his guilt washing over him.
I cry through the whole thing
xart.heartx ig Awe so did I
I have recently been watching many of your old FF videos, and I must say that I am in awe of your talent!
Cloud would be my hero .. .he fights for what is right and not for anger..he is like Aragorn
SO this was the first ever amv for FFVII I saw way back when I was 14, and 12 years later I'm watching it again and holy shit the nostalgia!! Thanks for basically getting me into the series, angst still cutting me deep lmao. I cant wait for the Remake!!
it's so so saddd love cloud and Zack
i watch this vid alot. its very well put together and in my opinion shows alot of emotion for what cloud feels
So sad how cloud screams and cries for zack and how he lays Aerith in water
I've no words to describe how im feeling right now after watching this video, its by far the best i've seen in a long time.
This is the deepest and saddest thing on RUclips
Change my mind
nobody replied, which means....
it really is the deepest and saddest thing

I remember crying to this..
truly sad and beautiful. awesome vid! cloud went through so much, but he always comes out smelling like roses in the end. a true hero never to be forgotten.
This is very emotional. I consider myself a pretty "strong" guy and this song made me cry. Makes me remember certain things.
"Maybe something will happen that can never un-happen; that scares you, doesn't it?" For those who dis Cloud for this, as a person who lives with this every day, getting out of that kind of mindset is hard, if not impossible. You freeze every time, and it takes so much to move again and face it.
