    Does anyone else just completely forget what they’re doing in the velvet room and just sit there and listen to this song?

      Forget? Nah fam. I just sit on that couch and hang a moment, allowing the day to fall away. Without the stress of the world on your shoulders, you can more easily peer into the soul, and see what your heart requires.

    I finally have Persona 3 and 4 and I fell madly in love with this song. I've been a tenor in choir for about 7 years, and one of my goals was to sing the Aria of the Soul, and guess what? I did it! I can match a soprano now! xD

    for those who do not know canonically Belladonna and Nameless do the velvet room theme Nameless is the pianist and Belladonna does the singing, a dev interview confirms that in every persona game after 2 they're actually hidden out of sight in the velvet room and they still play the velvet room, for if they weren't there, there wouldn't be a velvet room theme

    Nothing like some AKG K701 with your songs. Each and every brilliant note is heard.
