20 years later, and the music for Aeris still chokes me up inside. I remember restarting FF 7 three times because I wanted to believe there was a way to save her.
@@MergedElement I don't know why you would want to change the most iconic moment in FF 7, but yea there might be a chance...I really hope it doesn't though. No eye will be dry if they use Tina's version of aeriths theme during her death. That was really soemthing..
If I recall there was a way to bring her back at the very end but you had to do some very specific stuff. I literally never finished the game because I was so pissed that they killed my first virtual girlfriend.
I have never commented on a RUclips video before but.......but this I felt like I had to....the way you played the boss theme filled me with so much power and then you cut to the saddest part ever and I wont lie you captured the way i felt 20 years ago watching her drift away into the water......dont ever stop what you do this was brilliant
Absolutely amazing medley! I couldn't help but cry when Aerith's Theme and Main Theme of Final Fantasy VII started playing, it filled me with so many feels! ❤️
just breathtaking. The music with the cello, plus an exhilirating video performance as well, floating with pink fabric in the water and playing with a dripping cello on the shore. (standing ovation).
I saw this video as an ad and i usually dont press ads, but when I saw that it had something to do with Final Fantasy VII, I clicked without thinking...
rodmongodwood ohh... I understand that! I don’t like to play these games either so I watch their cinematic cutscenes cause DAMN BOI THEY ALL LOOK HANDSOME AS HELL WHUUUUUTT!! Rufus, Reno, Cloud Strife, Zack, Sephiroth... HELP they are so hot! Have you watched them in the remake? Boy be prepared... especially when Reno comes in sight, the theme of the Turk plays and that sounds so sexy with Reno.... I’m a girl btw and yeah dude I cannot stand their handsomeness! I love the story as well of FF7 remake so I just watch the cutscenes instead of playing the game... I let the gamers do the gaming via streaming platform so I just watch them play and follow the story with them
I'm in tears, haha. Tina is an ethereal creature; the world does not deserve her. FFVII's main theme always puts me in a densely nostalgic mood and she captured the sweeping poignancy so well. Those last couple of minutes... ugh! So marvelous!
She just keeps getting better. And better. And better. Magnificent musical performance and visual art here. The underwater part looks like a Monet water painting.
A moment in the Aeris sequence actually took me back to when I was playing the game. Whether you like what this woman did here or not, she deserves to be respected, not just for her musical talents, or even her love for FF7, but also because she (or her crew) went through the effort of creating visuals that resembled aspects of the game. Bravo, Ms.Guo! Bravo to everyone who participated in making this masterpiece!
Tina, this is amazing... the costumes, makeup, and settings were PERFECT!! my childhood was filled with Final Fantasy, and VII made a HUGE impact on my life. you made me feel 14 again, from the anticipation at the beginning, to the bang your head at the dope jam of the first boss battle, Aerith (actual Japanese translation, for fellow western fans) dying, yes, we ALL cried then, don't be a wuss... all the feels came back! Thank you, Tina :)
Only thing i'd ask is a followup video with Fallen Angel (Sephiroth's theme), Yuffie, ya know... all the other tasty bits of that slice of digital heaven :)
The main theme has always been an extremely inspirational piece to me ever since I first played the game (Japanese version). Then when I heard 5:24 for the first time I was immeasurably moved and in awe. A perfect ending to a masterful performance.
I can't watch this and not cry during Aerith's part. This whole video is amazing. Thank you for a wonderful performance. I would love to hear more FFV11 stuff, but thats just because it is my favorite game.
Tina I got so excited when I seen this!, I'm lost for words! This game was my childhood and this was so nostalgic!. I don't know if I can handle this much beauty in a video! lol Seriously amazing. Thankyou.
This is so beautiful. Such a good mix of passion and musical expression. And, compliments to all of you involved in creating the video! All of your music and videos are so inspiring.
Such a great video and the music is absolutely beautiful. Great work! I'm listening to it over and over. Love it! I bought the album when it came out and enjoy it very much.
This is one of the most beautiful pieces and I love the rock part, but the classical start and ending is absolutely amazing. One of your best videos, too!
yeah, such a nice feeling after stuck on repeat the whole album and a new video pops out. Tina would kill on a cover of Iron Maiden's "Transylvania"...
I'm new to this kind of music, never really thought of listening to it, outside of hearing these in a sound track. Its incredible. I'll still listen to my classic rock, but I'm buying your cd and keeping it in my truck.
FF7 will forever remain as one of the best jrpg games there ever was. And your beautiful medley is a worthy tribute to that game! Thank you for this wonderful performance!
Alright, so... your music gives me goosebumps, naturally. It just does, you're so unbelievably talented, and the cello is my favourite instrument, by far. However, for the first time in YEARS, your music did something to me that has not happened for way too long. I was effortlessly, subconsciously transported into another world. You made me see and feel things in my mind that I used to get when listening to really good music and just relaxing and letting go. Thank you so much. This might be my favourite piece of yours so far, and I am OBSESSED with Rains of Castamere. This evoked feelings in me that other songs just don't. I'm so glad I found you! You're my new favourite cellist. And the fact that you play the erhu just makes it better, because that instrument also sounds enchanting and goes so perfectly with your cello.
I can't stop crying... Thanks so much another time. Final Fantasy VII was incredible and your performance has been a really wonderful tribute to such amazing videogame. Nobuo Uematsu should see this beautiful wonder.

Dear Miss Guo, your melodies are trully from you heart - or your a great actor. But, I cannot believe that your work is anything but amazing. Thanks muchly for the beautiful sound and spiritual inspiration :D
Omg I was a big fan of hers and now I'm an even bigger fan! I first saw her Flight of the Bumblebee and then she played during the Viking Suite, and NOW THIS?! My life. It complete. Much love.
Amazing rendition and performance, Tina! It showcases both your musicality and virtuosity (traditional classical and heavy metal shredding) in such a dynamic and perfect medley. Can I like this 100x? Google, pls fix your upvote function!
I have never played Final Fantasy VII, nor did I know anything about the story when I first watched this. Yet when Aerith's theme played I was brought to deep and heavy tears.
OMG OMG OMG! One of my absolute favorite songs in all of gaming history (the opening sequence)!! WOW! I am in love! This rendition literally made me shed tears
this is an awesome cover! ff7 has some of the best music in gaming history. this takes me back to my childhood~ i can’t believe it’s been 20 years already... great job! :D

OffRezWolf yes
Well there might be that option to save Aeria within FF7 remake. Let all hope so.
Full tilt crying for me. As a child, I was scream crying at Sephiroth for doing that. It destroyed me.

Tina Guo - HP 9999 MP 999
LIMIT BREAK: *Cello Power!*
Sephiroth fainted...
*Victory fanfare!*
Bratman fainted? This ain't Pokémon, boy.
Bratman awesome FF7 reference😄 🙌👍
Muy bueno para mi el mejor final fantasy
Break. HP MP limit materia . only on Uk. Save airies by L1 R2 SELECT AND START AT THE SAME TIME TO SAVE HER.
Only the power of an open PS1 can save Aerith😞 These inaccurate ff7 references max my limit meter and you will all suffer a painful demise😠
"Her" death was tragic, but this just made it so much more moving, I almost cried. Thank you Tina.
Absolutely amazing medley! I couldn't help but cry when Aerith's Theme and Main Theme of Final Fantasy VII started playing, it filled me with so many feels! ❤️
I teared up when the underwater transition hit.
So much energy in Those who fight further and that crying violin sound for Aeris Theme + the beautiful video edition, that's an awesome performance
just breathtaking. The music with the cello, plus an exhilirating video performance as well, floating with pink fabric in the water and playing with a dripping cello on the shore. (standing ovation).

Same
Same
Cookie Crumb Nibble a wise decision
That's actually a new FF7 weapon
She's attacking the whole time
She attacked my damned heart when she started playing Aerith's theme! T_T
The production value on these videos is insane!
You're an amazing performer.
凄い！、この映像と演奏に釘付けだ！
Awesome wonderful footage and performance It is wonderful this wonderful picture
From JAPAN with love

Mia Asano is always on the cutting edge of redoing all forms of rock and roll , she's absolutely the greatest violinist on the planet

She just keeps getting better. And better. And better. Magnificent musical performance and visual art here. The underwater part looks like a Monet water painting.
I didn’t even watch the video and I’m already feeling nostalgic
2:59 - wasn't expecting that. That sudden transition to something so pretty, played in such a melancholy way. God! This is too wonderful!
I love listening to this while I'm riding my motorcycle.
A moment in the Aeris sequence actually took me back to when I was playing the game.

Bravo, Ms.Guo! Bravo to everyone who participated in making this masterpiece!
Going from the performance of “Those Who Fight Further” to “Aerith’s Theme” is like going 50 MPH and then slamming into a wall.
Tina, this is amazing... the costumes, makeup, and settings were PERFECT!! my childhood was filled with Final Fantasy, and VII made a HUGE impact on my life. you made me feel 14 again, from the anticipation at the beginning, to the bang your head at the dope jam of the first boss battle, Aerith (actual Japanese translation, for fellow western fans) dying, yes, we ALL cried then, don't be a wuss... all the feels came back!

mikex155 Aeriths theme 😂 i totally teared up. Yup Tina got me right in the feels.
beautiful both the musician and the music
The main theme has always been an extremely inspirational piece to me ever since I first played the game (Japanese version). Then when I heard 5:24 for the first time I was immeasurably moved and in awe. A perfect ending to a masterful performance.
Didn't think I could hear the soundtrack any better than this. Bravo.
I’m just about to finish the game and then I find this. So cool when that happens.
Incredibly epic and beautiful. The final part where you play Aerith's theme brought tears to my eyes.
One video, all the emotions.
wow, that escalated quickly. thanks so much Tina for your rendition of my favourite childhood series.
Woooowww it’s amazing, I died with the drowning cello 😭 it’s so beautiful
This is the most beautiful video I have ever seen.
I love that she is playing from inside a Mako Reactor...
I can't watch this and not cry during Aerith's part. This whole video is amazing. Thank you for a wonderful performance. I would love to hear more FFV11 stuff, but thats just because it is my favorite game.
They all sounded great, but damn Aeriths theme on the Cello sounds so freaking good. That was my favorite part for sure.
How can anyone thumbs down this? You have visual beauty along with musical beauty.
Final Fantasy really was a masterpiece with it's audio (and everything else). Great performance Tina.
How the hell has this only got 330k views in 3 years
Tina I got so excited when I seen this!, I'm lost for words! This game was my childhood and this was so nostalgic!. I don't know if I can handle this much beauty in a video! lol Seriously amazing. Thankyou.

you can feel sooo much emotion from the song
Thanks for bringing back so many wonderful memories with your beautiful music.
Great violin
Did you know she also played the main theme in the new Wonder Woman theme? Its titled "Is She with You." It's so blood pumping.
I'm _NOT_ crying!..
This is one of the most beautiful pieces and I love the rock part, but the classical start and ending is absolutely amazing. One of your best videos, too!
yeah, such a nice feeling after stuck on repeat the whole album and a new video pops out. Tina would kill on a cover of Iron Maiden's "Transylvania"...
I want to cry. It's beautiful
I will never look at a cello the same way again.Tina ,you are amazing!!!!!!!🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
wow the nostalgia, and bravo to you, that was truly beautifully done.
I'm new to this kind of music, never really thought of listening to it, outside of hearing these in a sound track. Its incredible. I'll still listen to my classic rock, but I'm buying your cd and keeping it in my truck.
The nostalgia hit me like a truck. Thx for that beautiful memory of this game.
Man I'd be so worried I'd get my cello all sandy. Great video as always

Oh my God, have no words from around 3 mins+ .... Remember it well, and you bring so much depth and feeling to this song... thank you so much! x
This is amazing, and the battle song got my blood pumping! Perfect song for martial art practice!
So nostalgic ;-; well done!
Absolutely stunning, you never fail to put on an amazing performance Tina.
Tina Guo, this is one of my favorite games final fantasy Vll of all times.thank you for sharing.
Can we just appreciate this girl put a cello underwater i can't 😂😂😂
she said it was a junker.
She’s not a “girl” girls are for little boys like you. She’s a woman.
As a cellist, it hurts my soul, even if it's a junk cello

Lovely composition.

Epic nostalgia from the real deal, Tina Guo!
Beautiful. When you started Aeris theme i started to cry.
Wow Tina... That was so beautiful it made me cry. You captured every bit of the essence of FF7... and then some. :)
This should have more views than those influencers on TikTok. (Actual talent + passion + visuals) Keep it up, Tina!!
From melancholy, to let's rock, to I think I'm going to cry, all the feels!
Absolutely breathtaking.Beautiful.
I am rarely moved to tears, but you have an amazing talent that is so emotional that it always does so. Thank you very much.
