So, this is my cover of Aeris's Theme from Final Fantasy 7, originally composed by Nobuo Uematsu. I did a different remix of the track a few years back, but I feel that I have improved a lot since then! I incorporated a few elements from the old work into this one, but it's mostly new. Anyway, I love FF7! Aerith/Aeries is also my favourite character from that game, and one of my top 10 from the entire series. I hope I was able to do her justice with this piece.
I do not own the piece of fan art I used in this video. You can find the original picture and the artist here: dagneo.deviantart.com/art/Aeri...

"What about us... what are WE supposed to do?
What about my pain?
My fingers are tingling.
My mouth is dry.
My eyes are burning."
When his fingers twitched and that tear rolled out of his eye in the remake that hurt.
Aeris will never laugh... Cry... Or get angry again.
The real Heroine of Final Fantasy VII ! I hope Cloud will be reunited with her again.
These two souls made the journey together.
no reunion needed. Have you watched Advent Children? that isn't him imagining her, there is a japan only book which chronicles her becoming the avatar of the lifestream. Kind of a Thanatos Character helping people deal with their grief and merge into the lifestream. Aerith, Zack, Jesse, Biggs and Wedge are never far from the protagonists of FF7 canonically.
Aerith: Don’t worry, Cloud. All is forgiven.
TFS!
Meow.
Which is basically what she tells him in Advent Children. It was never his fault. (yes that was canonically actually her via the lifestream)
I was 12 years old 1997. My parents decided to move away to the countryside far from my friends and since I only had a gameboy with Zelda on before, always talking about FF, they gave me a ps1 with ff7 for the hassle. A year later or so they separated. I lived in ff7....
my memory card had some failure so most of the times it would erase it self when I got to disc three, I didn't really mind though, I mean, I thought I did, but I didn't.
While a remake will be cool nothing can take me away from the love I have for those polygon fat handed characters, the silliness, the stupid things that made me laugh that for sure will be gone with voice acting.
I look forward to see the remake, but nothing can overthrow the deep love and affection I have for the original. The first game I played with heart and soul, and also the last....
Yes. This is how I felt around that age to a large degree, so I can relate to this tale! For me it was an emulated version of FF4 that got me through my parents' fighting and a move to a new town in grade 7! I don't know whether or not Sakaguchi realizes the immense impact he's had on all our lives.
Aww
Thank you so much. ^_^
When I lived in Belleville I received this game for my first honor roll certificate and every day since then It has been my favorite rpg to play I still have the original copy from that day
LOVE U MANG!!
I always picture Aerith as having never been alive, rather she was the embodiment of Gaia. And she returned to become the planet again to save everyone as a sacrifice of having a body to become her ultimate form: life.
I really enjoy that interpretation of it! Thanks! That kind of enriches the game for me.
I like the part where the embodiment of Life and the Planet threatened to cut off a mafia boss' balls.
Hironobu Sakaguchi said the game was supposed to be about life at its core.
He'd probably be really happy to read your depiction of Aerith.
You give Aerith a very christic role: the planet (God) giving birth to a avatar of Itself (Aeris, in the place of Jesus), embodying the godly will and the love It feels towards all beings. That avatar sacrificing itself for the sake of all, redeeming all sins (Shinra's wrongdoings and Sephiroth's summoning of the meteor).
I was just going say that but ya beat me to it ald
The memory of Aerith is sometimes sad because of her role in the story of FFVII but in the bottom, Aerith is a character who represents the life and hope. The image is very well made because it's bright and colored what corresponds perfectly to the essence of the character. I liked very much listening to this theme with this picture in head because it reminds me beautiful and peaceful feelings I had when I played to FFVII, in particular at the beginning of the game. Your cover is great too... It's a very beautiful tribute :)
Thanks for your detailed, thoughtful comment, Adrien. ^_^
This really captures Aerith's kind and loving personality. You did such a great job with her theme!
Thanks a lot! I'm very fond of the character!
I'm not crying, *you're crying* .
This work is beautiful and *IM NOT CRYING*
It's okay to cry. They are tears of courage.
I can't describe what's being done here. Aerith's theme is such a masterpiece, which really highlights the type of character she is... she is love, and life, almost unconditionally. That is exactly what you put into this arrangement, and it shows. Not many can truly encapsulate the feel of the original while making it their own, and for this I say thank you, for bringing me to a tears of happiness again.
Thank you so much! ^_^ That's what I was trying to do. I appreciate the feedback!
My favorite arrange.
Aerith will always live in my heart....
This song hits hard in the feels, especially for me, and your rendering of it is surpassing. :) Thank you for your gifts to the world, Miss Tripp!
Thank you! :'0
This invokes such a sense of nostalgia that even someone who hasn't played the original and has only started playing the remake can cry a little bit. :') it's so good,,,
Thank you for this beautiful remix.....it can make a grown man to tears of such reminder of a wonderful character like Aerith.
I'm really glad it moved you! Thanks for listening!
Hey Rebecca, do you have an Instagram account? I am planning in future to draw Aerith & would like to use your track/remix version with it.
The best arrangement for video games true best girl! I come back time and again to listen to this and it just as touching as the first time I listened. Thanks for all your great work!
Thanks!
The upcoming FF7 remake could only dream of having an Aerith's theme like this. You created a thick, lush sound, while still maintaining enough simplicity to keep from overwhelming the original track's melancholy feel. It almost sounds like something out of Howard Shore's Lord of the Rings soundtrack.
I would love to hear a small chamber orchestra play this version.
Whoah! Cave! It's an honor to meet you- although, I am also terrified to learn that you are real. I guess it was only a matter of time before you got into our universe, though. I'm very happy to learn that you like LotR and FF7, and flattered to be compared to Mr. Shore, who I have long admired! ^_^ Thanks!
Thanks, young lady. Black Mesa, moon dust, and the virtual world could never hold down this great pioneer. Keep on sharing your talents!
yeah and wehn the remake comes wiht the scene we would cry again
hope they use the old soundtracks in the remake
I'm having a live orchestra play my work soon, as it happens! ^_^ If you want to see the performance, there will be a livestream! facebook.com/events/174216413297453/?active_tab=about There's the event in case you're curious! This is for my Chrono Trigger medley, so I'm not sure if it would be your thing or not!
I’m not looking forward to the day I have to witness this again. Especially with the way the remake is building her and fleshing out her character so much more now.
Agreed. :< And up until that point, I'm also dreading having to hurt either her or Tifa by choosing one!
There is no guarantee that she will die, or anyone for that matter. That led to the bad ending, therefore we can assume: The unknown journey will continue, key word being "unknown".
When that Aerith piano hits, I can't help but tear up.
We all live and die in the lifestream,
but Rebecca plays along the lifestream,
thank you for all your awesome work :)
This is one of my favorite Final Fantasy Themes. And you made it even more beautiful, more emotional...I love it. Words cannot describe it's beauty. Good work, I love your Remixes.
P.S. I feel like you most definitely did Aerith justice.
:'D You think so? Awesome! ^_^
Thank you for an awesome theme to one of the greatest characters in this series!
I'm glad you liked it. Thank you.
I was playing FFVII days ago. Beautiful arrangement, touching hearts!
Thank you, Alexandre!
Somehow, you've made Aerith's theme seem less sad and more hopeful? There are parts that are still sad, but it doesn't take over the whole thing like the original does.
This almost feels like it's telling the story of her life, the happy and the sad.
Also- I loved the inclusion of the Prelude. That was awesome.
Thanks! ^_^ I often prefer to do that with cover songs. I like to try to find the "light" that's already inside the piece.
@@RebeccaETripp Do you think you'll ever do Somnus from FFXV?
I love this picture
It's my favourite Aerith fan art of all time layered on top of an old, overgrown church + some special effects. ^^
Juat wanted to drop by and say that ive drunk-listened to this song for quite a few times! Thank you for all the nice hours!
Heehee! Thanks for stopping by.
Really enjoyed this treasure. Felt like I found $100 bill in my pocket
I am old enough to remember her as Aeris and I must say after spending hours in the crater grinding magic pots to master Knights of the Round several times, it only took 1 opening intro in the FF7 Remake and a song like this to bring me back to my teen years. Hard not to get emotional when your childhood is brought to life in a new way. So thank you for your dedication to your craft, it shows you enjoy what you do
I'm so glad to hear this; it's been a favorite for years. Nicely done
Thanks!
This is amazing! You have added so much to this already beautiful track :)
:D Thanks, Andy.
Wonderful arrangement! It's such a powerful song and you really brought out the emotions in it!
Excellent! Thank you!
been listening to this channel for a while and your compositionary skills still are breath taking, keep it up!
Thank you so much!
Wow I am 4 Years Late But I am so glad I heard it. This is such a masterpiece
Thanks for listening! ^_^
This is the best VG music channel. I keep finding true gems year after year. Thank you Rebecca :)
I woke up feeling that light and warm feeling of love despite the annoying whistle of a truck.
While flowing on that i ended here. Almost a year past since that song came and now i hear and feel your soft and melodic version.
Like always thanks for sharing.
I hope it was soothing for you. ^^ Thanks!
I was a pre-teen when I saw Aerith die, I wasn't ready for this, shit's scarring
Again a wonderful and calming piece you did there :3
Thanks! ^_^
The whole thing is brilliant. My ears are so grateful to have heard this. Thank you, m'lady.
^_^
Amazing stuff Rebecca :) I remember recording this and converting it to mp3 back when it 1st came out :D
Nice job rearranging this, thank you! ^^ love Aerith
:) I love her too. Thanks!
Very pretty arrangement, Rebecca! Beautiful work!
^_^ Thanks, Chris!
Let me say that I love your touch on this theme, as Aerith is my favorite FF7 character and one of my favorite female characters in the FF series overall (If not my ultimate favorite, even though there are lots of beautifully written female character for this series), and the fate that befalled her tremendously affected me in my videoludic journey (be it through music or videogames), and she really opened the eyes of multiple generations of kids/teens by simply being herself and sharing her objectives to help create a better word through hardwork and, most of all, the hardships and sorrows that come into our lives whenever we try to reach out to something. I view her presence in the story like a little but bright blossom in an arid land, I fell in love with your music thanks to your interpretation of this marvelous piece of art, and I thank the RUclips recommendation system for once for leading me to you. I wish you all the luck you deserve as a great composer and hope you find the most satisfying path while creating the music you (and we all) love.
Thank you, Pam. You words are very touching and lovely.
RebeccaETripp No problem, what I wrote is just an infinitesimum of what I felt, so it felt right to share it with the one who initiated this magic❤️
Her and Tifa. And Terra.
This is perfect...So awesome, thank you!
I'm really glad you liked it!
Aeris didnt saved the world because she loved it. She saved it because it is the world that Cloud lives in.
This comment is old, but yes exactly. Not to say she didn’t love the planet. But ultimately it was her love for Cloud that made her go to the forgotten city by herself. The novel “the maiden who travels the planet” confirms this. She wanted to be selfish and stay by his side. But she chose to save and protect a future that involved Cloud living on 💔
Oh my God, this is so touching again... I don't know how to say any word, but I'm wordless.
Keep going!
Thank you.
Who is cutting onions again?
Great work, I'm crying like a baby right now, awesome tribute!!!
Thank you.
Sorry if I already mentioned this to you (or you already heard about it elsewhere) but I'm having a live orchestra perform my Chrono Trigger arrangements very soon! ^_^ This is extremely important for me (and very exciting) and I'm trying to spread the word to VGM lovers. If you want to see the performance, there will be a livestream! facebook.com/events/174216413297453/?active_tab=about There's the event in case you're curious! I don't know if CT is you thing or not, but one never knows! ^_^ Have a nice day!
Thank you for the info and the best of luck for your first performance
You definitely did her justice, wish I'd heard this sooner!
Thanks, Danny.
This is very nice! good work
Yet another amazing video of amazing music! GREAT JOB!
Thank you so much!
You are very welcome! Im a huge fan of almost all your mixes, only one or two i havent liked, but the rest is amazing!
Thank you so much for this beautiful song.
Thank you, too!
i have only my tears for your great effort......
so many friends have died since......
thanks to all musicians involved..
tough song for me.
I just had to hug my custom Aerith plush from Budsies while listening, this reminds me of why I wanted her, to help me feel calm.
Just recently got into Final Fantasy Vll with its remake and fell head over heels over the characters and beautiful music but the one character that stole my heart was none other than the flower girl 💜 I now listen to her theme religiously since the remake was dropped and finally after years, more than a decade of wanting this game, got my hands on the Original FFVll! This game is absolutely fantastic so far (just got to world map), and still Aerith is just purely such a fantastic character and this cover really captures her essences perfectly 💜
Thanks! ^_^
Winning the Battle Arena with Aeris was one of my proudest achievements orz
you did a wonderful job rebecca ..thanks a lifetime..
^_^ I"m glad you liked it.
This is really good! Great work, Rebecca!
:) Thank you, Ebenezer!
+RebeccaETripp No problem! :D
You one of the most genuine RUclipsrs I have seen in a while
Thanks! :0
Try not to cry when hearing this song. I dare you.
Especially _this_ beautiful rendition.
Thanks! ☕
Wow.... this is AMAZING! Nice 👍
I remember you made multiple versions of Aerith's, that one is very lovely =3
Thanks!
This arrangement inspired me to write a scene for my Final Fantasy fanfic and D&D game I'm currently hosting. I played this music while narrating. Needless to say, I couldn't hold back my tears in front of my players...
'Dominique woke up that morning in a hall next to a fire, with the rest of her traveling friends. Sari - a little 4 year old girl born with the gift of magic who she had been taking care of for the last 24 hours since the death of her parents - was already awake looking at the fire, smiling.
"Good morning Sari, you seem happy?" Dominique said inquisitively. Sari responded: "I saw my parents in the fire. They were with a beautiful woman with long wavy brown hair, she was carrying a basket of flowers and wearing red and pink clothes. She seemed really friendly! She said that even though she was really busy protecting the planet, she would make sure my parents would be safe. They said they were really proud of me for being so brave and that they trust you to take care of me now. That you have a good heart."
Dominique smiled and tried to hold back her tears, but obviously couldn't and said: "I'll make sure you're safe baby girl. I promise!" As Aerith smiled and believed with all her heart that Sari would be kept safe in the hands of Dominique and her friends, she proceeded to guide her parents' souls to safety in the lifestream.'
Aerith really is my best girl forever. I can't help but cry every time I hear her theme. You did so well!
Thank you Rebecca! ❤️
I'm glad this inspired you, as Uematsu inspired me! ^_^ And now your art will inspire others!
Incredible sound :) Thank you Rebecca :)
^_^ Thanks a lot, Andrew.
I love your stuff, you're amazing
Thank you! :)
Rebecca for President 2016!!!!! She can take this land to great places with her tunes! We need her in the USA! Haha! Thank You so much Rebecca, this is great! ❤ This is like flowers falling from the sky on a pleasant twilight Friday evening. Ahhh, now I'm just patiently waiting for "Holding my thoughts in my Heart" FF7 piece. I will jump for joy when I see that one pop up on the subscriptions. I'm sure you can do it so melodiously, although I think you said that one makes you sad? Well just think of me when/if ever you listen to it! :-)
Thank you so much, Seven! ^_^ I'm always pleased to see your comments. I've been strongly considering doing a Make Rebecca Cry" album where I do covers of all the tunes the depress the %$#% out of me, and hopefully release the emotions connected to each song!
Oh okay!! I'll buy Holding My Thoughts in my Heart!!!! Haha! It kind of starts off sounding depressing but then the climax is the complete opposite, very uplifting. I live for that part!
Beautiful work ! And subtly.
Thank you!
Just amazing.
Thank you very much!
there are two kinds of people in this world people who prefer tifa over aerith and people who prefer aerith over tifa and I am definitely the latter to me aerith has always been such a unique and well realized character that I wanted to be more like and her theme, which I have many versions of, is a great representation of her which just makes this theme one of my favorite pieces of music period gaming or otherwise and your version here just does a wonderful job musically showing off all the apects of aerith that make her so great so thanks for that I couldn't have asked for a better version of this theme
I'm glad you liked it that much! The character also means a lot to me. She is someone I relate to a lot!
@@RebeccaETripp now that you mention it you do kind of remind me of her nice to know there is a reason why I like you and your work as an artist
I just don't understand how you can make an already perfect song better ! My girlfriend and daughter are enjoying your music now also !
^_^ Thanks!! Also, I really appreciate you sharing my work with your family- especially your daughter! That means a lot to me.
I always cry listening to this.
So beautiful... I love it
^_^ Thanks.
This is as good, or better than the official orchestral versions released by Uematsu himself! And thank you so much for covering songs from the older FF games too! I played FF1 when it came out. I was in elementary school and it completely hooked me on JRPGs.
Thank you! ^_^
This is a true love song to sacrifice everything to save the world.
It's funny that when I listen to the piano from the beginning, I always remember the materia going down the steps and into the water, while I was confused and in disbelief hehe... Feeling pretty nostalgic right now. Beautiful version.
Thanks, Victor! Those piano bits also remind me of that exact moment.
+RebeccaETripp have a great day :)
FF VII is not my favourite, but Aerith's Theme is undeniably wonderful and you've brought a lot to it. Great work!
Thanks a lot, Marco!
I think this is the best remix of this song. Here to listen to this drunk again btw :D
Thanks a lot! :'D
the picture is beautyful
Cloud:I'll never let you go ... Aerith.
This theme just reminds me of how bad I was at games when I was a kid. I never made it past costa del sol. Yet I loved the game, beat it a couple years back, still hold a high ranking in my favorite games of all time.
Very peaceful.
Thank you!
I really love this theme ♥. Its wonderful but sad too :( . But to see her dying makes me so cry :(. She a really wonderfull charakter and it was not fair what happened to her. You have done a great job :). Greetings from germany!
Thanks! Greetings from Canada!
This is so wonderful. Beyond disney wonderful. Beyond old barbie movies wonderful (even though i didnt watch them, i just assumed they have great orchestra). This is just so beautiful there's sadness hope and joy in this that is just wonderful to me.
May she live in the remake
I'm glad you like it!
how is it possible that anyone disliked this?! it is soo good!
It was Sephiroth! :O And thanks!
Whoever disliked this might of been one of Sephiroth's lackeys! *Kappa Face*
Also awesome medley. :P
Hehehe! Thanks. ^_^ I'm glad you've got my back, lol!
yea, no prob. :P
I miss you, Jess(Aerith). Even though we only loved for a short time, long ago, your face is still painted on my heart.
Wouldn't be my favorite track from this game (in my case are One Winged Angel and the Main World track) indeed is a very emotional track (and again, is not my favorite moment from this game, it could be the moment when Red XIII discovers the truth about his father :') ).
Thanks for another masterpiece, Rebecca! :D
That Red XIII moment is very wonderful! I cried more at that part than I did with Aeris- although both bits made me cry! Thanks, Michael!
Wonderful. Good job per the norm.
^_^v Thanks, Daniel!
Listening to this again but not even as drunk as before!
That hard moment when u have to desequipt (materia) Aerith to avoid loosing the items because u know she wont come back. Damn it!! Best FF of all times!!
Maybe I'm remembering it incorrectly, but I think her stuff just randomly appears in the inventory.
@@RebeccaETripp in my game no.
Yo buscaba hace años un personaje que me enamorara en el sentido de que ese personaje se ganase mi corazón y lo apreciara como tal, ya que no había tenido la oportunidad de encontrar uno (o al menos uno que fuera una chica) hasta que decidí jugar FF7, con el spoiler de Aerith.
Yo creí erróneamente que sería otra muerte genérica, aburrida, e insípida, pero, al ser ella ese personaje que tanto buscaba, su muerte me dolió muchísimo, lloré y lloré, y a día de hoy la extraño, verla en el remake de nuevo fue como un reencuentro más que una primera vez.
Aerith, la heroína de Final Fantasy VII, es y siempre será mi personaje favorito de los videojuegos.
Amo essa música...
Obrigada!
Great allusion to the old ff prelude :)
Thanks. ^^ I love putting that into various FF arrangements.
Well done :D
FF7 wasn't my first FF, nor is it in my top 5 FFs, but the theme itself is pretty high up on my beautiful VGM list. This version of it is just stunning. I'm gonna have to see if I can mod this theme into my PC version when I stream it....
I share you exact feelings about FF7/its music. I think my top 5 are 4, 6, 9, 5 and 12.
those 3 notes
Just purchased up your FF collection Rebecca you are the best.... plain and simple!!!!
Thank you so much! :D I actually have an extremely large amount of Secret of Mana remixes already. Here is a link to them: ruclips.net/p/PLhsnNwoLVWWOAUF-hFj41Jdw3YH_BG_lq
@@RebeccaETripp thank you for the link listening now!
"I'm sorry; I *cannot* forgive Sephiroth!"
second cutest ff character after Yuna
Nice Arrangement, and it's Aeris.
I actually prefer it as Aeris. Most people seem to prefer Aerith though.
@@RebeccaETripp Aerith is her Asian/Japanese name.
Very beautiful and touching, thank you Rebecca. Aware of the current state of our planet with all the destruction and madness of war and economy, I wish more people would take care of nature like Aerith did...
Yes, I feel the same. But we do our part. You nurture animals, and we both try to reach out and touch souls in order to inspire empathy in others. Empathy is what will save this planet, I think- if the default state of mind is to care!
That is very well said and true. The song is just so much connected with feelings of sadness and loss whenever I listen to it. Thank you for lifting me up, Rebecca :-D
So was relistening to this after playing the ff7 remake, got it back in my mind. Then for quarentine a band I like (Elbow) has been making long distance home recordings of their songs.
One of them, "Magnificent", has lyrics that struck me as lining up with Aerith. "Throwing both her arms around the world, a world that doesn't even know how much it needs this little girl." Even a reference to finding a peice of colored glass that she holds value in. Like dang, coincidence!
Video if you wanna listen: ruclips.net/video/2o51NDg5sck/видео.html
I like that band. Mirrorball is my fav. ^^
Hre again drunk btw, not the last time. Brings a tear to my eye every time
Ô toi...Puisses-tu contempler l'esprit de cet œuvre que tu as aimé, aime, et aimera...Par delà les sons, les mots, les pensées, par delà les dimensions, le tendre voile si ténu qui nous sépare de l'illusion du départ
Vous avez de belles pensées.
So pretty!
Thank you!
This is great, I love ffvii it's my second favorite.
It's my 5th favorite, but in a very high tier, since 4, 6 and 9 are equal in my mind. ^^ Thank you!
Mine are 10,13,4, and 8. I really like those. :)
Aww. My baby.
