Man, I haven't played this game since I was 11. It was over 13 years ago. I forgot this song existed until just randomly. I start humming it and start singing the words I'm like. What is that? I forgot how much I loved this song. My mom literally used to play in her car sometimes😂
Beat this game in 4 hours. Have been emotionally scarred for months and will never recover. Beautiful game, beautiful song, most depressing thing I have ever experienced. Amazing how emotionally involved you get with barely any cutscenes and the main characters speaking two different languages. Such an incredible revolutionary game. Every time Yorda falls short of completing a jump and is hanging off the edge of a cliff my heart races a little faster as I pull her up.
+Kurt Stark So true... Despite most people doesn't agree with this kind of endings, for me is different. It's not like I enjoy being sad or something like that, is just that unespected endings are the best, and even more if you can trigger more than 1.
This game was so amazing ;-; I want to erase it from my mind and experience it all again omg. It's weird, the game actually makes you feel like saving Yorda... I mean it actually motivates you and makes you care about her.... This game was so amazing and powerful and now i am playing SotC haah
Whenever I recommend this to other people I am at a loss to describe the hundreds of details that make it so touching. A lost child leading a blind girl by the hand, the desolate setting, you have to ... be there.
hearing this song when I ended all the quests all the hard puzzles this game is litterally a masterpiece it doesnt give u any hints ur the one who is supose to figure evreything I wish I can play this but my ps2 toke a lot of dammage and I dont have a ps3 but well I have the memories
I don't understand why Steven Geraghty was not given credit for singing on this song. The writer Lynne Hobday was given credit, but not the vocalist. I thought this would be corrected when the HD collection was released. But his name was still left out. Shadow Of The Colossus did not have a song with vocals at the end. Does anyone think The Last Guardian will?
@Robertsmith2002 I agree. Let's just hope they don't suddenly cancel the game... 'cause it's almost like they're trying to make people forget the game exists with how long we've waited
oh, I see what you mean. I thought you meant there's still hope that we won't feel sad in the end.. like something was coming.. something to expect.. xP
@majormelthesackboy I was raised and still living in a religiously Christian family that's pretty controlling myself. But this song to them is something holy in comparison to the tons of music I listen to all the time xD Either way, this song is beautiful (as much as i'm sure you can agree otherwise you wouldn't listen to it) and the lyrics aren't vulgar so I can't help but feel bad for you
Just finished this game for the first time today. Enchanting atmosphere (both the visuals and the music) and story made for a very enjoyable time. I wasn't really wowed by the actual gameplay though. Some decent puzzles, some terrible, and annoying combat in between with manual save points forcing you to re-solve the whole puzzle or redo an annoying fight from one little slip up. And I hated the camera. The very last section of the game was definitely my favorite, with how different it was.
@absiliomundus The game ending is sad, this great music only adds to that, but the real ending of the game brings hope, and makes this music not so sad.
A nice takeaway from this game is that you can subvert the audience’s expectations and have the princess save the hero without making her a “strong female character”.
Anderson Mora Agüero OMG...I can't wait. SONY should put out another HD collection for the PS4 & include a playable demo for The Last Guardian. The wait is almost over.......almost. :)
English is a staple language everywhere more or less. The United States is one of the only countries that I know of that doesn't teach another language in Elementary Schools, or other countries counterpart of Elementary Schools.
ICO is a master piece.

Good to see there is still people here

indeed. this game was something else.
@@raihanahazmina2642 i liked it more than SOTC but both are 10
this game made me so sad... then shadow of the colossus made me cry like a baby... can't wait to see what the last guardian will make with my emotions
+Kurt Stark So true...

This is the real way to subvert the audience expectations. Not a bait and switch but with a tragic irony.

manly tears were shed at the end :'| beautiful song! goes GREAT with the game! Just listening to the OST man this game was really something else

Wow. I could never understand the lyrics, but they describe events of the game perfectly! Thank you!
I had no idea this song was sung in english. I can't understand a word without the lyrics.
Same but once you see those lyrics they become ingrained.
listen to The World God Only Knows opening
I could make out some of the words. But the lyrics really helped me follow along.
I just beat this game a couple days ago, and I must say, what an emotional work of art this game had to behold :,)
This game is sad and beutiful. The storyline is great and the ending makes sence.
Amazing game and ending and I was so relieved yorda was okay.

Great music for a pure masterpiece.....enchanting theme.
On of the best ending sequenes ever
@Robertsmith2002
I agree.

13 years ago. I'm old.
Is 'nonomori' thank you?
I love this song, it's so beautiful >w
Yes, it means thank you.
Allauyes...
Damn Great game. Damn great music.
This is a true Masterpiece..
We don’t really know what that means. It is in a made up language.
But it probably means “Goodbye”.
True, but we know there is hope :)
best......song......EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This song is fucking great.
Esse Jogo é lendário ! Quase choro só de ouvir e lembrar oque esse jogo me faz sentir....
so sad :'(
Wonderful job :')
remember have a beach in sotc that ressemble of the Ico
would be amazing if pixar or disney made a movie of this, w/this song @ the end.
It's been too long since I played this.
SO MANY FEELS
@onewingedgamersephy
Yes xD
It's probably just hard to decipher what he's singing without looking up the lyrics.
Because castrato singers are rare and expensive to hire.
I coudn't understand anything before on the japanesenglish, thanks for the lirics
This song is up there with Utada's "Simple and Clean"
I was thinking the same thing! Even tho this comment is like months late 😂
Jurvus Gee better late than never
Love simple and clean but I think you were there towers far above simple and clean.
oh, I see what you mean. I thought you meant there's still hope that we won't feel sad in the end.. like something was coming.. something to expect.. xP
イコとワンダを超えるゲームを今だ見たことがない・・・凄く美しく芸術的作品だ。
世界から絶賛された理由がよく理解できる。
次作品が待ち遠しい・・・
If you think about it enough, this song alludes to both ICO and Shadow of the Colossus, even though SotC was made after this song was written.
Yes.
I can't wait any longer for The Last Guardian!! Pleeaase, hurry! :(
Btw, this song is lovely *.*
The singer is a young Sean Garrety(sp?) .... beautiful game / beautiful song .... GREAT GAME......
D; DAMMIT YORDA!!! YOU MADE ME CRY AGAIN!!!!! D;

Eu amo a yorda, ela sempre será minha princesa.
best game
@absiliomundus
The game ending is sad, this great music only adds to that, but the real ending of the game brings hope, and makes this music not so sad.
It has a similar sound a feel to Walking in the Air.
Jogão!
I'll find you "Yorda"!
@BayTears
Actually, I agree....excluding the lack of vocals xD
It's so sad :(
@absiliomundus Actually, some very powerful films can made with few to no spoken lines. Have you seen "Angel's Egg" or "Baraka?"
The original ending is a bit different than the remake one's.
If you play the remake, you will notice that the song starts a bit earlier.
... I MUST GET A PS3!
Well i think there both really great games but ill say shadow of the colousus but ico is still pretty awesome :)
@absiliomundus Have you seen "Angel's Egg?" You don't need vocals to make a powerful and moving film.
When she sings "From the shadows of my mind" I would be funny if sang instead "From the Shadows of the Colossi" :)
@natalia2010bestyear: She's was already human and she does become "normal" at the end...
Did you play the game???
any word on when The Last Guardian comes out
A nice takeaway from this game is that you can subvert the audience’s expectations and have the princess save the hero without making her a “strong female character”.
Who sings this and were can I download it??
初めてゲームのエンディングで泣いた思い出の曲。（´；ω；｀）
What's kind of people in this story
I've just finished the game for about an hour- but this shit stick in my head. The song is fucking awesome
Is this game available on PC??
Jagdmesser I don't think so, with what it was made for the ps2 and ps3. But I think you could emulate the game onto the PC
@majormelthesackboy
huh? why?
So shadow of the colossus is a prequel to this?
***** ok thanks
the last guardian in 2016 :´)
Anderson Mora Agüero OMG...I can't wait. SONY should put out another HD collection for the PS4 & include a playable demo for The Last Guardian. The wait is almost over.......almost. :)
why does this song remind me of the little mermaid???!?!?!?!
what is better?? shadow of the collusus or ICO ???
Both

who are the hopeless warriors?
The shadow creatures I’m guessing.
@absiliomundus tell me about it.
:,D
@Robertsmith2002
Sadly, no
What? :o
Okay, okay...
Wow my comment has so many thumbs down o.o
I'll make another bad one xDD
NO DISLIKES ! Oh yeah . ;)
wait... THE SONG IS IN ENGLISH?!? I thought it was Japanese or something.
The original version was.
How nice of them to modify and translate them for us.
說好的最後的守護者呢！？
English is a staple language everywhere more or less. The United States is one of the only countries that I know of that doesn't teach another language in Elementary Schools, or other countries counterpart of Elementary Schools.
@absiliomundus damn, with all the games thats out today they just dont make um like this anymore, with the storyline, music, dialogue. sad
:/ being carried by his woman... lame boy
