Ive been searching high and low for a perfect vocal cover. And the problem i came across was that most were too i guess "clean"? They lacked grit and ferocity. but you... you knock this outta the park! home run girl!
I must admit that the main reason I clicked on this is because Futaba was on the thumbnail but regardless, I think it's a pretty neat cover. Keep it up!
Ooooh i get it now " rivers in the desert " as in sending hope to an otherwise hopeless land , and " heartbeat for a tinman " as in giving a heartless person mercy and changing their hearts , this song is so symbolic for the phantom thieves as a whole
i more interpreted the "heartbeat for a tinman" line as, similar to a river in a desert, making something inherently impossible true, because of the tinman in the wizard of oz
I'm legit shocked this wasn't the boss theme for a Palace with a literal desert. The song fits quite well with the undertones of the lyrics too, considering the owner of said Palace.
Its because Futaba's was about fighting the past and breaking from lies, meanwhile, Shido's palace was about the fool going full circle he started with Shido and was close to ending it with Shido fitting way to end the fool's journey to achieve The World.
*I LOVE THIS* I played persona five three times and on my fourth run through and this makes me extremely happy and your vocals are just YES! I love this so much!
dude how tho and why? i feel like i would be maxed out after 2. do you skip the dialogue? lol my first play-through was like 80-100 hrs (fell asleep with game on at least once lol)
Trey Nelson I like trying to get the other endings and my first run I maxed out with no one xD so my other 3 I spent maxing with other people and such and I skipped unnecessary dialogue but watched all the Awakenings I'm at the end of my 4th run so...YAY
I'm finishing my 5th full run and i'm not tired at all. Want to get all the valantine chocolates and christmas presents. I try to play the game twice then wait like 6 months before playing twice again.

Honestly, your voice fits perfectly with this music! I'm such a die-hard fan for the original soundtrack and there are very few covers I like or even tolerate for Persona 5, but you have an amazing voice and this is just so freaking good! Thank you for sharing!
Shido ruined Joker's life, killed Futaba's mom, killed Haru's dad, ruined [hee ho, that's a spoiler]'s life, and indirectly screwed over Yusuke, Makoto, Ryuji, and Ann via Madarame, Kaneshiro, and Kobayakawa respectively the only one he never touched was the cat cat working for shido confirmed
Morgana was captured by Kamoshida and if the principal wasn’t controlled by Shido, maybe Kamoshida would’ve been in prison and would’ve lost that palace so Morgana was free.
Like many others, i simply clicked cause Futaba, but this genuinely is an amazing cover, honestly it gets me more hyped up than the actual theme thanks to your effort in the chorus. Thank you so much for this cover, and keep up the good work
Found this cover on Spotify like a week ago and I just want to say, great job with this, it’s one of the best covers I’ve ever heard. Absolute amazing work
You have so much power behind your voice and Personified has really brought that out in such a satisfying way. The soundtrack already makes me feel like taking on the world and your guys' amazing talents only double down on that.
The funny thing is that I have never player any game from the Persona series and I only found out about it when Joker was realised as a DLC fighter in Ultimate, but this one of the best songs I’ve ever heard
I was just finally accepting how it's over (for the third time) and accepting that I can't play the game forever, and then u post this. is that a sign that i shoULD KEEP PLAYING AND ADD ON TO MY 213 HOURS
I like the original, don't get me wrong, but this truly brings out the song's message. I mean, just read the lyrics! You do them justice in a way the original just couldn't.
One thing i found intresting is that shido is diffrent from other bosses in game sense all of them have some sort of gimmick but shido hes diffrent he just fights no multiple spots to hit no item sacrifice no crown to knock off or infinite lackeys to knock down. just him aganist the phantom thieves. could also represent he has so much pride in himself he dosent need some sort of tricks to win aganist the phantom thieves all in all a great character.
ahhhh i never did like the original vocals on this song because it always seemed to detract from an otherwise really badass kind of song, but godDAMN did you breathe life into them. hundreds of kudos to you, now watch me play this instead of the original whenever it comes up lol
I remember hearing your cover a while back and couldn’t find it, so when I heard you had a RUclips channel, I was sooooooo happy, I’m so glad I found it, best cover of the song
original version is what shido hears on a normal playthrough, sapphire's version is for ng+, your cover on spotify is ng+ with dlc, this cover is ng+, dlc, on safe mode
at first i thought you just redid the track with the original singer, but as soon as the first river came along i knew it was different, but oh so good at the same time :)

LYRICS
It's now or it's never, and I've got to
Make my decision
This time it could be my moment
Is this a mirage or a chance to fulfill my mission?
A river in a dry land
The last ace in a lost hand
A heartbeat for a tin man
Oasis in a singed land
I'm keeping the balance, but I'm standing
On razor's edge now
Move quick or my life is over
One strike, just a feint, then ...
I'm outa his field of vision
Don't ask why I'm ready but I'm ready to
Strike him down now
A chance at a new start
There's no time for indecision
A river in a dry land
The last ace in a lost hand
When the hope of new beginnings burned our feet
Now we need it:
A heartbeat for a tin man
An oasis in a singed land
Remind us what we're here for:
Creating new life
Creating rivers in the desert
My heart is a furnace,
(It's) Hot as hell in my world of conflict
One goal is what keeps me going
Take back what I lost to ...
The bosses of greed and fear, yeah
Don't ask why I'm ready but I'm ready to take
Them down now
The time for a new start
Is constantly drawing nearer
A river in a dry land
The last ace in a lost hand
When the hope of new beginnings burned our feet
Now we need it:
A heartbeat for a tin man
An oasis in a singed land
Remind us what we're here for:
Creating new life
Creating rivers in the desert
When a cool drop of water's all I need
Gotta clear my head of anger and greed
A place to refresh heart and mind,
Can I find
Some time in
Rivers in a dry land
The last ace in a lost hand
When the hope of new beginnings burned our feet
Now we need it:
A heartbeat for a tin man
An oasis in a singed land
Remind us what we're here for:
Creating new life
Creating rivers in the desert

I'm legit shocked this wasn't the boss theme for a Palace with a literal desert. The song fits quite well with the undertones of the lyrics too, considering the owner of said Palace.
if i had heard the song before playing the game i would've thought it would've played in futaba's palace given the whole egyptian theme.
Its because Futaba's was about fighting the past and breaking from lies, meanwhile, Shido's palace was about the fool going full circle he started with Shido and was close to ending it with Shido fitting way to end the fool's journey to achieve The World.
This ain't a boss theme, this is the protag's theme XD
This is such a heroic sounding song.
Jesus Christ these vocals are something else. Simply amazing.
After hearing Amalee/Monarch’s cover of this, THEY BOTH GO HARD AF!
*I LOVE THIS*

LIGHTDX good job ;-;

And here I was, thinking that Rivers in the Desert was a song that no cover could match. I could not have been more wrong

Love the cover!
I always thought it was heartbeat for a demon, I feel a little silly.
That's exactly what I thought it was, too, and I thought it was still appropriate.
same here tbh
I thought it said "I heard it from Deman"
Marcus Tokisaki lol dafuq is Deman?

@@woofnoble Well played.
I'm also crying, not because of this beautiful song but i just remember this song when i fought those twin and they wiped me out 😭
Am I allowed to like this more than the original?
YES
I saw this in the middle of class and freaked. This is my favorite song from persona 5!!! You made me like it even more!!
The cover we need
The cover we deserve. ❤️❤️❤️
You’re the Batman of covers lollia!
What does that mean?
Shen N. Annagins it’s actually “I’m not the hero they wanted, but the hero they deserved” but I’m still liking this comment
Bolton Studios I thought it was I’m not the hero they deserved, but the one they needed
This is by far the best cover I heard of Rivers in the desert
This cover feels like an “All-Out Attack”!
Futaba is best girl and no one will tell me otherwise. This song is beyond amazing.
Shido ruined Joker's life, killed Futaba's mom, killed Haru's dad, ruined [hee ho, that's a spoiler]'s life, and indirectly screwed over Yusuke, Makoto, Ryuji, and Ann via Madarame, Kaneshiro, and Kobayakawa respectively
the only one he never touched was the cat
