Obviously James Agreed, it still is my favorite one after listening to 2016 version. also the only one I bought. New year, new chance to better looking forward tot 2017 version. like every year :)
In my position here my ranked after play them : 1) 2010 --> Just the best because the feeling in the end is just epic and incomparable. We hope a day an update ! 2) 2013 --> Ofc this is just breathtaking. As a whole the piece is incredible. 3) 2016+2012 --> Those are very beautiful with lots of variations that make them charming.
lovely, wish my cat would stay near me whilst I play piano for inspiration, like you seem to be getting from him/her, or maybe its just relaxing for you both :) although your cat seems completely oblivious to any piano playing, its rather intent on washing itself, amazing.
I like how the scenery is placed. The outside world doesn't notice the soft atmosphere within a certain house. The outside is cold and winterish while the inside is warm and cozy.
Beautiful arrangement Kyle, it's incredible how much variation you can apply to a song mantaining its original feeling ;w; Definitely the best Dearly Beloved cover I'ever heard!
This is still easily the best rendition you've had! i get goosebumps from every rendition but this one i could listen to for hours on end. You're a legend.
I could not stop staring at the cat the whole time because of how it looked like he was bobbing his head to the music, which made me love it even more. I hope you and your kitty live very long, fruitful, and happy lives Mr. *****
No words can really describe how amazing and gifted you are at this. You're so inspiring to listen to. Thanks so much for sharing this with everyone, Kyle!
As a giant fan of Kingdom Hearts myself and kinda wanting to learn the piano myself... This was super inspiring. Though I am mainly a Cello guy Piano was always really cool to me.. All I can say is that this was awesome and incredibly cool to listen to... Have fun playing the Piano Kyle :) And good luck!
Wow, this sounds great. I can tell this guy really likes Xion's theme. That bit that he plays is really the most beautiful part of it. It all is but I get the most goosebumps hearing that part lol.
GUYS- before you go looking for the sheets; take a second and observe- Kyle is not using sheets. Why? Because Kyle is using the music within his heart. Oh Kyle. Play for me. Play for me Kyle. Play for my heart.
ryan spring Do you also think that I am seriously requesting Kyle to play for my heart, knowing that my heart does not have ears? Yeah THATS RIGHT I AM
This rendition, with its quick little integrations of Kingdom Heart's most beautiful songs, was absolutely breathtaking. I never thought anything could surpass my favorite of all of your recordings, Dearly Beloved (Soft Version), but this was incredible. It brought tears to my eyes. I bought this a few minutes in. One of your absolute best. Kyle, bravo, and thank you for delivering once again!
Kyle everytime I hear you play I regret giving up on learning the piano. I lost so much motivation through my early teenage years. But every time I hear you play it makes me want to pull out my olf keyboard and practice. You have an amazing talent, thank you for playing these beautiful songs!
This song has so much sadness because of the nostalgia you get by listening to such a timeless tune to the KH fandom. It's a great honor to be able to see you play.
It's impossible not to see the years of work and dedication when listening to the development of these pieces. You're getting better every year, don't ever stop playing Mr. Landry. You're an inspiration to musicians and non-musicians everywhere.
You don't know it, Kyle, but your dancing fingers have been guiding my feet and arms for years. You've saved me.... Again. One day, I hope to meet you so I can personally thank you for saving me... from myself.... Dearly beloved.
Without listening to Kyle's soothing music, I wouldn't have been able to survive senior year of high school. And considering I am still alive, I am grateful.
This makes me want to say something that I always wanted to tell someone that I lost in my life. No matter what...darkness can be in our lives even if we don't want it to. No one has a perfect life and we all know that, but we have to go on no matter if the darkness gets the better of us. He would want that for me...he would want that for all of us. There is times when were down and sad but that's why we have bonds or our family...they help us feel better in our daily lives. I'm not going to let anyone make me feel small or weak...I want to be strong for the people I care about...I want to find the light in my life and I know I will find it someday. I have to move on...I can't keep mourning you...you understand...right? :)
Year 2023 and I am still listening to this beautiful piece. Been listening this piece for so many years. Still my favourite out of all the other version.
Square Enix should hire you, so you can play the menu title song for KH3. Just imagine..... It would be already Game of the year, only casuse everyone was stuck for a 2 hours in the menu.
Oh my god hahaha i did that with the first kh game- id turn it on and leave it playing til i fell asleep- and kyle should do the music, he adds a soft yet strong touch in his music ;)
Maria Alvarez Yeah, a soft version would be great for the final game. Sets the mood to look back at all the older games. And when the stronger part comes up you see how awesome the new game has become !
This made something lurch within my body; try to separate itself and go through the door your music opens and I can't follow. There's no describing the feeling your compositions give me. You are my favorite sound.
I'm not entirely sure if i enjoy Kyle's 2009 or 2013 more. I love the complexity of his 2009 version, but his 2013 is incredible. I love the key changes, and modulations leading in to 2:52. Absolutely incredible !
From all of your variation of Dearly Beloved... This will always be my favorite. It is an honor to watch the growth of a great musician such as yourself... With love, your fan :)
Couldn't agree more, I come back to this video at least monthly. What makes this the best version for me is the very short, underrated transition at 4:52. It really sounds like a "spiral into chaos", very fitting for a series like KH.
The only thing I can't understand about this whole image is why there would be any dislikes on this video... Even if someone didn't like this song, the talent it took to play it deserves a like, or at the very least, not a dislike. Great job Kyle.
Welp i just discovered your works and am incredibly impressed. Going to buy your 2012, 2013, and 2015 on Itunes. I have played versions of this songs for all my daughter when they were baby's to lullaby them to sleep. And now the combined 30min min with those 3 performances will be their new melody to whisk them away into the land dreams.
I was only listening and suddenly I took a look at the screen and saw the kitty and omg, I felt so warm idk... everything about this is perfect. I love you Kyle and I love your hands.
@@kylelandry Please, please, please release the sheet music for The Courage of Joanna. I am literally about to buy transcribing software to be able to print it off. I will buy it in seconds if you do!
I understand that this entire video is the best part of this song, but starting at 6:52 is hands down my favorite part. Anything with Xion brings me just past the verge of tears.
It's one of the amazing things in the world.. some guys want to tell me, there is no magic in this world, no piece of peace :D but there is. sometimes, i loose myself in the dark. but there are people, sharing their talents. it gives me hope, everytime.. it's a pity, that so less people know you, kyle. you are rly amazing! never stop, please.
You CANNOT feel stressed, tense or scared when you look at a sleeping cat....or really, it doesn't matter what the cat is doing, just looking at him/her makes you feel serenity
I played piano for about a month 6 years ago, I didn't get into to it well enough, no motivation. The simple fact that songs such as this and Clannads Dango Daikazoku are available for me to play and shown by you in all their glory has made me pick it up again. Hopefully I can complete songs as well as you!
Different donation levels could include free and/or signed CDs, inclusion in credits on the next album, Kyle performing an exclusive session for the highest contributors, etc.
private google hangout maybe, there could be a lot. I really think this can happen, just think if everyone donates just 1 dollar he will have more than money enough even. Everyone should just think of it as: I'm getting free 270 covers by kyle for 1 dollar that I donated.
Awesome idea! Hopefully he sees this and truly considers it, im sure everyone would be more than happy to donate more than 1 dollar ahhaa, i certainly would
After hearing your dearly beloved interpretations for years i still think this one is the best, i really want to thank you for giving me so many moments of happyness with your videos, sorry about my english and greetings from Colombia, i wish you a nice day.
It's called Vector to the Heavens/ Dirge of the Fourteenth when battling her. When she dies, the variation is called Musique Pour la Trestesse de Xion (Music for the Sadness of Xion). And you can hear it throughout the whole 7-minute mark if you really listen :)
10 years later and still my favorite rendition of Dearly Beloved.
10 years+ ago and still making me feel all warm inside. thanks kyle.
best cat video I've ever seen
lol
John Goldfield llol
The 2013 rendition is by far the best.
Obviously James And 2010 the second best.
Obviously James Agreed, it still is my favorite one after listening to 2016 version. also the only one I bought. New year, new chance to better looking forward tot 2017 version. like every year :)
The 10 year may have been the best though
2019 and i still rank 2013 as my fav, 2010 as my second :)
In my position here my ranked after play them :
1) 2010 --> Just the best because the feeling in the end is just epic and incomparable. We hope a day an update !
2) 2013 --> Ofc this is just breathtaking. As a whole the piece is incredible.
3) 2016+2012 --> Those are very beautiful with lots of variations that make them charming.
This is my favourite version of Dearly Beloved since I first heard it 10 years ago
I still remember the preformance of this song and love to came back an hear it. More then 10 years, time pass to fast. Hi from Mexico
oh kyle....
never stop plx
you changed my life in a very good way
ps: could u do a version again with matt? i loved your first where u derped at the end xD
11 years late but forever a fantastic version. truly draws out everything e flat major has to offer
lovely, wish my cat would stay near me whilst I play piano for inspiration, like you seem to be getting from him/her, or maybe its just relaxing for you both :) although your cat seems completely oblivious to any piano playing, its rather intent on washing itself, amazing.
its not nice for you to listen to music while taking a bath?^^ isnt that the same for his cat?XD
andrea piro didnt look at it like that, good point though ;)
To be honest, the cat seems to love the piano. Look at kitty's ears twitch towards the sound.
My cat sometimes listen to my playing on my knees :)
I come back here once a year or so to appreciate this very art. Exquisite.
I like how the scenery is placed. The outside world doesn't notice the soft atmosphere within a certain house. The outside is cold and winterish while the inside is warm and cozy.
That cat has the best seat in the house.
lol😻😻😻😻
6:46 lmao your cat is watching like "holy shit, this guy's good"
It's a cat, he is thinking "dam those scampery fingers look delicious but that would involve getting up so..."
😂😂
Watched this at least 100 times over the last decade
still the best rendition
I feel like this song just took me on a journey... A majestic, beautiful, and intense journey...
This is why whenever I want to listen to any kind of emotional piano piece on youtube, I first check Kyle's channel...
Beautiful arrangement Kyle, it's incredible how much variation you can apply to a song mantaining its original feeling ;w; Definitely the best Dearly Beloved cover I'ever heard!
Stunning as usual!
5:18 ohhhhh yesssssssss
E si, è molto bravo!
ALESSANDRO CIARROCCHI Beh,non si può di certo dire che sia un ragazzo senza un dono. Nice :)
Enjoy the music on your twitch streams, amazing piano too.
This is still easily the best rendition you've had! i get goosebumps from every rendition but this one i could listen to for hours on end. You're a legend.
I love this so much gahhh. I feel shivers.
Catplant ASMR very much so 😊
Oh heck, even you’re here
Bro im still hearing this time to time, love it ever since 2013
I could not stop staring at the cat the whole time because of how it looked like he was bobbing his head to the music, which made me love it even more.
I hope you and your kitty live very long, fruitful, and happy lives Mr. *****
No words can really describe how amazing and gifted you are at this. You're so inspiring to listen to. Thanks so much for sharing this with everyone, Kyle!

All I can say is that this was awesome and incredibly cool to listen to... Have fun playing the Piano Kyle :) And good luck!
Tova Cheney imma cello guy who found piano playing to be really cool too, HIGH FIVE :D
Yaaaaaaaaaa :D
Tova Cheney yeah I can play piano but I'm only right handed and I'm also in orchestra :)
heyyy it's smirky!!! :D
Wow... Just wow.
This is by far my favourite dearly beloved cover
I loved that you added Xion theme to it. Two beautiful songs that happen to be in the same key. That mix so well.
Aint no christmas without one of your covers of Dearly beloved!
The snowy cat background really makes this a vibe
Wow, this sounds great. I can tell this guy really likes Xion's theme. That bit that he plays is really the most beautiful part of it. It all is but I get the most goosebumps hearing that part lol.
That’s gorgeous
It’s been 12 days I have been sleeping to this wishing to dream abt me playing piano like that
GUYS- before you go looking for the sheets; take a second and observe-
Kyle is not using sheets. Why?
Because Kyle is using the music within his heart. Oh Kyle. Play for me.
Play for me Kyle. Play for my heart.
+fair2guy :'-C
Bottom left of the screen on the wall, it's sheet music (possibly this piece but I'm not sure)
+Vi The King Yep your right he keeps looking at it now n again.
So fair2guy is either stupid or blind.
ryan spring
Do you also think that I am seriously requesting Kyle to play for my heart, knowing that my heart does not have ears?
Yeah THATS RIGHT I AM
+fair2guy Own it!! :D
At 6:35 the cat suddenly realized that you are amazing at playing the piano.
This rendition, with its quick little integrations of Kingdom Heart's most beautiful songs, was absolutely breathtaking. I never thought anything could surpass my favorite of all of your recordings, Dearly Beloved (Soft Version), but this was incredible. It brought tears to my eyes. I bought this a few minutes in.

This song has so much sadness because of the nostalgia you get by listening to such a timeless tune to the KH fandom. It's a great honor to be able to see you play.
Sheet Music guys! bit.ly/KyleLandry_DearlyBeloved
Awesome!
Kyle, I really hope you read all of your comments, because seeing all of these people crying because your music is so beautiful must be amazing.
It's impossible not to see the years of work and dedication when listening to the development of these pieces. You're getting better every year, don't ever stop playing Mr. Landry. You're an inspiration to musicians and non-musicians everywhere.
You don't know it, Kyle, but your dancing fingers have been guiding my feet and arms for years. You've saved me.... Again. One day, I hope to meet you so I can personally thank you for saving me... from myself....
Dearly beloved.
HAPPY NEW YEAR KYLE !
with no doubt this version "Dearly Beloved 2013" is the best one you've made until now.
congratulations.
You have no idea how happy I was to see this (especially on the last day of the year)!!
Also, KH 3 incoming!
Without listening to Kyle's soothing music, I wouldn't have been able to survive senior year of high school. And considering I am still alive, I am grateful.
This makes me want to say something that I always wanted to tell someone that I lost in my life.
No matter what...darkness can be in our lives even if we don't want it to. No one has a perfect life and we all know that, but we have to go on no matter if the darkness gets the better of us.

I have to move on...I can't keep mourning you...you understand...right? :)
This is the best version you've made for dearly beloved, amazing!
You've just inspired me to do two things.
1. Get a cat.
2. Practice more.
this is my favorite cover of dearly beloved
Happy New Year from Germany! :D
i lost my dearly beloved yesterday.... i'm thankful to have this to comfort me
5:00 prepare for turbulence. The good kind.
Wow, 7 years ago and you're still rocking on youtube!
Year 2023 and I am still listening to this beautiful piece. Been listening this piece for so many years. Still my favourite out of all the other version.
wow after hearing the master piece itself, the outro really finished it! Maybe some sheets for the outro? love to play that someday.
There are no sheets yet, but the mp3 is available :)
+kylelandry still no sheets?? Come on ):
Jacob Smith Thanks dude!!
Wait...I meant the sheets for "The Courage of Joanna", I don't think they are available yet =/
Jacob Smith I found the song in spotify, but I don't think anywone will be covering it =\
I love the way he give a new shape to the music, and I like people, when they are passionate what they are doing. This is very interesting!
Square Enix should hire you, so you can play the menu title song for KH3. Just imagine.....
It would be already Game of the year, only casuse everyone was stuck for a 2 hours in the menu.
Oh my god hahaha i did that with the first kh game- id turn it on and leave it playing til i fell asleep- and kyle should do the music, he adds a soft yet strong touch in his music ;)

haha
oohhhhhhhh kh3.. oohhhhhhhhhhh how my body yearns
Pon Popo sadly square enix NA is only a promotions branch. The real branch is in japan and they hire rarely : C
This made something lurch within my body; try to separate itself and go through the door your music opens and I can't follow. There's no describing the feeling your compositions give me. You are my favorite sound.
I love that you mixed some of Xion's theme into this, thank you for putting an unique twist on this song every year. Happy New Year Kyle!
Kyle this makes me cry.... every year i love your rendition of this. I know that when i get married I will have you there playing the piano for me.
Breathtaking. You're one of the most creative and gifted pianists I've ever known, and that's honestly saying a lot coming from me!
I am a huge fan of your Violin and Kyle's Piano you should both do a cover together.
Stephen Ramos
You've read our minds... :)
Roshea lmao! He doesn’t have the range!!
I'm not entirely sure if i enjoy Kyle's 2009 or 2013 more. I love the complexity of his 2009 version, but his 2013 is incredible. I love the key changes, and modulations leading in to 2:52. Absolutely incredible !
How old was you when you done that piano
How old are you
What is you name in real life
Chelsea Rose Copperwhite Not sure what your first comment meant, and ummm why do you want my age, and name?
From all of your variation of Dearly Beloved... This will always be my favorite. It is an honor to watch the growth of a great musician such as yourself...
With love, your fan :)
Indeed!

This arrangement is thebest by far. It feels like magic...
There's no "wild, standing ovation with hats and roses thrown in all directions" button, so the Like one will have to do instead.
I love going through the comments and seeing things like this
I understood nothing 🤔
Im happy that I'm able to experience this beauty
This.... Just.... Nostalgia all around everyone, all around. QuQ
I was only listening and suddenly I took a look at the screen and saw the kitty and omg, I felt so warm idk... everything about this is perfect. I love you Kyle and I love your hands.
PLEASE release The Courage of Joanna! That little taste at the end was too epic to ignore!
It's released!
***** Oh! I apologize for my ignorance in not following the link. The song is beautiful! Thank you!
@@kylelandry Please, please, please release the sheet music for The Courage of Joanna. I am literally about to buy transcribing software to be able to print it off. I will buy it in seconds if you do!
I understand that this entire video is the best part of this song, but starting at 6:52 is hands down my favorite part. Anything with Xion brings me just past the verge of tears.
snowing outside. cat on the windowsill. cozy piano nook in the corner, surrounded by books.
damn thats a comfy feel
Again, the year my daughter was born. This one is most special to me, tears every time.
Happy New Year Kyle and thank you for all your nice videos !
Greetings from France !
Regards,
Alain
My grandfather just passed away, not two days ago. Your music helps me get through it. Thank you so very much for sharing your incredible talent.
my pet lion listened to this. it is now a ball of fluffy kittens.
It's one of the amazing things in the world.. some guys want to tell me, there is no magic in this world, no piece of peace :D but there is. sometimes, i loose myself in the dark. but there are people, sharing their talents. it gives me hope, everytime..
it's a pity, that so less people know you, kyle. you are rly amazing! never stop, please.
I never write many comments on youtube, but this time, I have to do it! I love this cover and listen to it every day! Keep up the great work. ;)
You are one of the greats in my book. I look up to you and you've inspired me.
It's like he's serenading the cat
Omg I literally burst or laughing when I saw your comment lol XD
It's probably one of the most espressive playing I've ever heard in my life.
Thank you buddy, sincerely.
omg, i can't stop listening, it's so powerful!
Literally the most amazing piece of music ever.
This is so beautiful; I cried. Thank you Kyle, for gifting this world with your beautiful music.
You CANNOT feel stressed, tense or scared when you look at a sleeping cat....or really, it doesn't matter what the cat is doing, just looking at him/her makes you feel serenity
OMG! This cat and this song are awesome! *A*
the best version ever. Over the last ones. Please move to spotify
Happy New Year from Spain!!! Momento más esperado del día.
I played piano for about a month 6 years ago, I didn't get into to it well enough, no motivation. The simple fact that songs such as this and Clannads Dango Daikazoku are available for me to play and shown by you in all their glory has made me pick it up again. Hopefully I can complete songs as well as you!
That was truly the best cover I've heard for Dearly Beloved. This is such a wonderful composition!
Instead of sitting my ass down, focusing and improving Ive been stuck on your videos Kyle! You're a wonderful inspiration keep up the fantastic work!
Kyle, have you considered running a Kickstarter or some fundraiser for a grand piano that you undoubtedly deserve?
wow, this is actually an amazing idea! Would also have to include money for recording equipment
Different donation levels could include free and/or signed CDs, inclusion in credits on the next album, Kyle performing an exclusive session for the highest contributors, etc.
private google hangout maybe, there could be a lot. I really think this can happen, just think if everyone donates just 1 dollar he will have more than money enough even. Everyone should just think of it as: I'm getting free 270 covers by kyle for 1 dollar that I donated.
Awesome idea! Hopefully he sees this and truly considers it, im sure everyone would be more than happy to donate more than 1 dollar ahhaa, i certainly would
Lewis Todesco I would certainly donate a dollar
Simply beautiful sir. Dearly Beloved is my favorite song period. Got tears in my eyes.
I'M WAITING FOR MY CHRISTMAS PRESENT KYLE. (Dearly Beloved 2016)
After hearing your dearly beloved interpretations for years i still think this one is the best, i really want to thank you for giving me so many moments of happyness with your videos, sorry about my english and greetings from Colombia, i wish you a nice day.
It's already december, can't wait for a 2014 version :D
+1000
Though this version is still as incredible amazing as ever!
I couldn't take this.. this is truly beautiful... I'm speechless.
Nearly killed me at 6:50-7:10 - did NOT expect that theme to be merged in....holding back...the feels...
Dark Aegyptiacus Which theme are you talking about?
It sounds like Xion's
It's called Vector to the Heavens/ Dirge of the Fourteenth when battling her. When she dies, the variation is called Musique Pour la Trestesse de Xion (Music for the Sadness of Xion). And you can hear it throughout the whole 7-minute mark if you really listen :)
A tradition that does not need to be broken! Way to go man.
I think I'm in love
I can't stop watching you play
