  • First take cover of Flow, from my favorite game Final Fantasy XIV. Only simple reverb and an equalizer was added, no pitch correcting.
    Thanks for listening!

    Thank you all so much for listening to my cover! I honestly had no idea I would get so much traffic from this video, as it was only made to share with my friends originally. I plan on making more FFXIV music content, so if you enjoyed and want to hear more, please consider subscribing to my channel! Again, thank you so much! :)

    POV: You're Hermes singing to Meteion.
    Your soft, warm voice matches Hermes VA pretty well imo. Great job!

    Beautiful.
    One thing that gets me is the distant echo of Hydaelyn in the Sharlayan theme.
    At first, you hear it and it’s a hint at what guides Sharlayan. Her voice leading them to try and save the world. A soft voice that we search for and follow to.
    But afterwards…it instead represents the lingering impact she has made on so many people. Now, it’s faint because it’s the voice behind you that encourages to be the best person you can to others. To share that same love and care to others with sacrifice.
    Great job. Thank you.

    Welcome and well met, my brave little spark
    How long you've wandered, burned bright as a star
    Oh, I have longed, waiting patiently
    All this time past every fate
    Now sing with me once more
    Share of your life
    Far greater than memory
    It's loss and love words cannot hold
    Boundless, the tale overflows and carries your light out to sea
    Remember the rain, near and far beloved
    Each drop a blessing, from heavens abovе
    And how must time float on those waters
    Bеcame one, streams, rivers and lakes
    Reaching for the horizon and far beyond
    They carry onward, however changed with each brief reflection
    By setting sun, by storm's wake
    Till welcomed home to gentle sea
    Sinking deeper and deeper in calm embrace
    Loving tide sweeping in, bear you down
    Should you meet us, arise and surface thus
    With your own beating heart wish them well
    Deep, dark, far away
    I heard of your voice
    With your every choice
    Now our hands joined round the meaning you sought
    I'll catch your tears
    Quench your fears with joy
    To your devotion
    Where in time all shall as hope be reborn all
    Hush love, close your eyes
    Let them sleep all blind, in such a still night
    It calls to unto dreams, be and all
    Though you will weep, the winds rise again, for this journey's end
    Is but one step forward to tomorrow

    Flow is, for the most past, written with a female voice in mind, both in tonality and lyrics. You provided proof that it can be sung by a man equally well, the secret being not to try to power through it; it’s not that kind of song, it needs reserved restraint and a metric ton of feeling behind that, in order for the exact amount of warmth to come through at exactly the points it’s supposed to. Well done, you nailed it.

    It's fun to see how the singers of different covers of this song heard the lyrics slightly differently; it shows how each person read into their meaning. I wonder if we'll get official lyrics.

    This was already a beautiful song that made me cry the minute we got the full thing in the Endwalker MSQ. You have a gorgeous voice and have done great justice to a wonderful song. Now it's going on a playlist specifically for the story based on a ttrpg I took part in as your voice works fantastically for the god of a character that died at the end of her own journey and the lyrics are all water-based. Fantastic work for making me cry all over again at this song, but for a totally different story
