My heart. I've been listening to the collection version for years and that intro gets me every time. Spent a lot of time around Balamb Garden as a kid.
Absolutely love this piece. One of the loveliest of Nobuo's career. Many thanks, as always, for your wonderful performance. FF8 was lacking in a few ways compared to 6 or 7. But music was not one of those ways.
@jordocote because a lot of the lore is not in your face like in other installments of the franchise, which is really unfortunate because it's at least as deep and good, 8 will forever be my favorite one. A lot of players also didn't like to have magic be a consumable and many either didn't understand the junction system or didn't care about it enough to learn to like it
It's kind of surreal to think that listening to this takes me back over 20 years now. Thanks, Kara, for sharing your talents with us. I do lots of time traveling with you, but now I get to share it with a few others, too.
Great performance Kara. I haven't enjoyed this song till recently, after playing the game for the 5th time. Now I loved it, it has a lot of emotion and it's one of Uematsu's best
Thanks for the nostalgia trip. Point in the game when the main characters are reflecting on their connected childhood inside a school that just got devastated by a missile attack. So much emotion.
I love this song! I always loved how in FFVIII although Laguna and Julia never ended up together, their children Squall and Rinoa did. It's like fate kept all of them together. Great work!
I'm honored that you thanked me for requesting this during a Twitch stream! The live performance was amazing, but I'm sure that you managed to top that with this recording! This one is extra special for me. 💗🎹🎶
Youre playing all my childhood favorites as they sparingly were and youre the girl of my dreams. You have to enjoy these beautiful songs from Final Fantasy, 8 had some particularly wonderful songs in general. These video game/japanese composed tracks seem to truly make your piano come alive.
Love this! Thanks! Ami or Breezy are staples on my backgound music playlists and will continue to be through 2023. I hope you're having a great Christmastime with friends and family, and I look forward to whatever you feel like posting in the new year!
Simply breathtaking. Watching your passion and grace is always refreshing and inspiring. Your talent is such a blessing, you move your hands over the keys like a sculptor shaping a masterpiece. Thank you for your art.
Its such a pleasure to listen your absolutly perfect play, thanks a lot! 🙏 I am happy for every upload you made, a dream for me would is to have you all Uematsu's Songs played 😅
Hi Kara, Ami is quite relaxing and many thanks for publishing this great RUclips video! I’ve been very busy lately but I plan to attend your live streams more often this winter, especially to listen to some Nutcracker music and everything else. I hope you have a nice weekend! Sincerely, Edward
Thank you Edward! thank you for being so kind to me. And I'll never forget meeting you and your family! The nutcracker performance is this Saturday at 2pm on twitch. Hope you can come!!
I would love to see her play in a Distant Worlds or Final Symphony concert. Awesome performance Kara! As always. Ami is also one of my dearest an most emotional tracks from FF8. Its power to take someones mind away into the past is similar to the one Ellone has.
This may be one of my favourite final fantasy theme rendition's. It's nice to see that I'm not the only one at 31 years old still enjoying music from these wonderful old games. If you had to choose, which would be your favourite?
FFVIII's music holds a special place in my heart, and as always you play it beautifully! Here come the leg cramps again 😅
Lol, channeling Laguna's spirit, I see XD
You will not regret looking up a game called "The Legend of Dragoon" on ps1 that is a classic jrpg and the OST is so dope check it out! :D
I love all FF soundtracks, but VIII is also my favourite. At the time, it kind of sounded more like music for a movie than for a video game.
My heart. I've been listening to the collection version for years and that intro gets me every time. Spent a lot of time around Balamb Garden as a kid.
This was perfect!
One of the best pieces from all of Final Fantasy. Such a beautiful song.
So soothing, and so well played 😊VIII is full of beautiful songs
The Final Fantasy VIII soundtrack never disappoints.
And you never fail to impress me with your covers 😁
Glad you have decided to record one of my dearest pieces. This takes me back and fills me with sweet, warm feelings. Thank you ❤
Awww 🥰
Nobuo is such a rare genius. What a great job you did as well Kara! Thanks
Absolutely love this piece. One of the loveliest of Nobuo's career. Many thanks, as always, for your wonderful performance. FF8 was lacking in a few ways compared to 6 or 7. But music was not one of those ways.
ff8 will always be my fave
@jordocote because a lot of the lore is not in your face like in other installments of the franchise, which is really unfortunate because it's at least as deep and good, 8 will forever be my favorite one. A lot of players also didn't like to have magic be a consumable and many either didn't understand the junction system or didn't care about it enough to learn to like it
Nice Job Kara! these songs create a nice backdrop for ambience the way you play them.
FFVIII is one of my absolute favorites because of Uematsu's amazing music. Thank you for this. SO MUCH.
It's kind of surreal to think that listening to this takes me back over 20 years now. Thanks, Kara, for sharing your talents with us. I do lots of time traveling with you, but now I get to share it with a few others, too.
Nearly a quarter-century, at this point...
Wow,music from the best part - FF 8
One of the things I am more excited about 2023 is you Chrono Trigger Compilation :D Can't wait for it
It’s going to be so good, we just completed mixing/mastering the soundtrack! It’s coming soon!!
One of my absolute favorites. I learned to play it several years back but nowhere close to your level.
Thanks for sharing!
the most gentlest, loving, piece in a final fantasy game
Man the FF series just has some of the best music in existence. And it sounds amazing on Piano. Your videos made me start learning to play piano again
I love to hear that ❤️
美しいです🥲この曲を素敵なアレンジで弾いてくれてありがとう…❤
Thank you!!
So Perfect, thank you Kara you made my day. :)
I like how you smile when you get into the chorus.
Great performance Kara. I haven't enjoyed this song till recently, after playing the game for the 5th time. Now I loved it, it has a lot of emotion and it's one of Uematsu's best
Thanks for the nostalgia trip. Point in the game when the main characters are reflecting on their connected childhood inside a school that just got devastated by a missile attack. So much emotion.
Thank you for all the hard work you pour into your craft. Your covers are so beautiful and inspiring. Have an awesome day, Kara!
This is so beautiful and nostalgic in the same breath.
I love the jazzy arrangement. So peaceful and sweet, with nods to other themes as well. Well played, as usual. Thank you for sharing!
I love this song! I always loved how in FFVIII although Laguna and Julia never ended up together, their children Squall and Rinoa did. It's like fate kept all of them together. Great work!

Can't wait for next year's chrono trigger album. ^^
Great composition. Well played.
This was really beautiful, I don’t think I’ve ever heard it on the piano before you did it on your Twitch live stream.
Oh wow!!
Can't wait to hear it ❤
Nice choice, Kara! This arrangement is very beautiful. I would say to definitely play FF8 and make it a high priority. It's a great game.
Thank you Kevin!!
I would love to see her play in a Distant Worlds or Final Symphony concert.
Awesome performance Kara! As always.
Ami is also one of my dearest an most emotional tracks from FF8. Its power to take someones mind away into the past is similar to the one Ellone has.
That would be so amazing, I wish they would let me! Spread the word! :P
Very sweet! Love your playing!
Thank you Brian!!
Toujours authentique. Bravo !
Beautiful!
Beautiful
And as always Kara delivers an amazing song. Some day soon we hope to hear a concert tour announced. Have a blessed day.
Yes I would love to!! :)
Bravo Kara toujours magnifiquement interprété
Thank you like always :)
This song always gives me mixed emotions. Great work! Can we pretty please get a ff8 medley??!
You will not regret looking up a game called "The Legend of Dragoon" on ps1 that is a classic jrpg and the OST is so dope check it out! :D
Final Fantasy song are beautiful! Thanks for this! Nice performance! ❤👏👏👏👏👏
@hitmeup-karacomparetto I'd be glad to contact you ☺🙏🌹, but I don't know what your telegram contact is.
I love you,thank you very much!
Woow !! Nice !! I am on the third CD lol... 35 years old, finished 10 times
Wow, this song is pure love. Bless ❤🧡💛💚💙💜🖤🤍😼😻😸😋:-)
This may be one of my favourite final fantasy theme rendition's. It's nice to see that I'm not the only one at 31 years old still enjoying music from these wonderful old games.
If you had to choose, which would be your favourite?
It’s too hard! I love Melodies of life though :)
FF7 & 8's music is deeply ingrained in my head from countless hours of game play.
A ray of beauty on my dark morning...
❤️
Aaaaaahhh I love this soo much! Your piano always sounds soo good. Just mic'd up acoustic? Love your content and streams also
Yes that's what makes it so good- an acoustic grand piano that's perfectly in tune (I have it tuned before every recording) :) Thank you!!
Can't wait to hear it~~!
Magnificent!
Lovely
🤩
Wow as always, such a heartfelt performance. This piece so relaxing and I always go back to it. Thank you Kara for this brilliant playing.
良いなぁ・・・。思春期が終わっていない「★ティーンエイジャーがバスケットコートで、少年少女だった頃の思い出を語り合う」それにピッタリのサウンド。★ストーリー中の重要なイベント。
自分も大人になってからも冷静に子供の時の頃の事を思い出せる気がしてきました。
I see my favorite game, I mash that like button like a madman.
Beautiful! I am learning this version so this will also help me to review it :D, not that I can play it like you xD
ohhh good luck! it's such a lovely one :)
Thanks (L !!
Ff8 was always my favorite ff because it was a love story
Nobuo Uematsu ... master of FF music. And SQEX did the rest in programming masterpieces of games!
Please, play "Love Grows" from FF8 too
