  • Hey Everybody! I'm so pleased to finally share this cover with all of you. Crisis Core was the reason I wanted a PSP many years ago and still remains as one of my favorite entries in the FFVII universe. I actually started this cover well over a year ago and it left untouched on my hard drive for months. When Crisis Core Reunion was announced back in June, I decided to dust off this track and actually finish it. In my excitement, I was able to learn that my friend ‪@ferdk16‬ is as big of a fan of Zack Fair as I am so I was thrilled he was willing to contribute the solo for this. I hope you all enjoy our take on "Why" and enjoy the game!
    Lyrics (English Translation)
    Your inner eye has clouded over so much that it's impossible for you to see.
    Does any emotion still reside within the depths of your heart?
    Having the entire world at your fingertips,
    Is that what you consider happiness?
    Why? Why do look up into the lonely heavens?
    Why? Can't you laugh a little?
    I understand this character of yours -
    This disposition that is incapable of putting anything into words.
    What was it that came to be in your sequestered past?
    These eyes of yours, they refuse to meet the world.
    All alone with only the lonely night to cradle you,
    Is this the warmth that you have come to know?
    Why? Why are you so concerned with the way you look?
    Why? Can you not open up your heart a little?
    You've been taxed by this heavy burden for so long,
    It's time that you learn to accept yourself.
    Have more faith in yourself...
    It is those who are free that are stumbling...
    It is those who are free that are insecure...
    Why? Why do you look up at the lonely sky?
    Why? Can you not laugh, even slightly?
    I can appreciate
    This reticent character of yours.
    You only have to try to believe...

    Your enunciation and emphasis on certain words kept true to the original while adding the unique tone of your voice. I love the passion that you bring to these covers. This song is one of my favorites from that soundtrack especially. Thank you for covering it.

    Oh I was expecting a instrument cover but was blown away hearing you singing the actual lyrics. Hearing you do this cover takes me back to the first time I beat Crisis Core and my journey with Zack came to a close.

    Hitomi no oku ga boyakete mienai

    Incredible, affecting cover. Better than the original, which was well-written but too anemic on vocals and guitar. You nailed it.
