    Long ago people would listen to this melody, just as we are doing now... At times they would have been cheered up... while at times they would have been made to cry. - Dr. Citan Uzuki (Hyuga Ricdeau)

      That is beautiful :) Though I have to confess, I have never played Xenogears... But I love the music.

      Fei: "Doc... I feel strange when I listen to this music... I feel something warm inside."
      Citan: "That just may be because you have someone living inside of you... And he too must have liked this music a long time ago before he became a part of you..."
      maikoi15011 you haven't played Xenogears?! Download yourself an emulator or buy the game and start playing, you won't regret it. It's only the greatest RPG of all time by Square :)

      maikoi15011 Play xenogears... as Lethal Bluff said, find a way to get it and believe me you won't regret a second of it!

      +maikoi15011 you have to make time to play it, but unlike other games it's loaded with deep meaning and story telling. It's way better than reading a book.

      how did you come to find the music? Yasunori mitsuda is one of the best ever though, for sure.

    "Music is a mysterious thing...
    Sometimes, it makes people remember things that they do not expect.
    Many thoughts, feelings, memories... things almost forgotten...
    Regardless of whether the listener desires to remember them or not..."

    Mitsuda's music is appreciated no matter if you're a gamer or not, if I learned anything in the last 15 years of my life as a musician.
    I love your cover so much btw. This brings back great memories of when I played the game as a child.

    Fei and Elly may have the most beautiful love story there will ever be, but they certainly have the most beautiful music for that love story. That lore is a remarkable Masterpiece.

    It does not matter how many years get put in between myself and when these kind of songs were a part of my life. The melodies evoke within me emotions and memories of simpler times. I hope to never forget these songs and the happiness it carries with them. Thank you for playing. Although this video is old, the song still plucks at my soul.

    That short look at the camera, on 1:47.. It shows me, and maybe to us all, a kind of tenderness.. which fits perfectly with atmosphere and deep emotions of this song. That was gorgeous, Linsey. You're the best ..

    my bro and i played tons of JRPGs back in their golden age(ff,star ocean,suikoden,etc). among those, xenogears has special place in my heart. with the most sophisticated and deep storylines, characters' extreme development, beautiful soundtrack, awesome battlesystem, silk-like scripts, the game flies above other rpg games. I really recommend it if you like JRPG :)
    have you checked lonlonjp's channel? he arranged games ost too.his playings are like ice cream in my ears. you'll like it :)

    It's a handmade guitar (without brand) that I bought in a local guitar store! They bought it on a guitar fair somewhere and then I found it in their store ;) It's all-solid with rosewood back & sides and spruce top. And yes, it sounds fantastic!

  • @maikoi15011
    @maikoi15011  12 лет назад

    Heh well I am sightreading in this video.. ^^; maybe that also has something to do with it.. externally I might not look like I'm feeling much emotion, but I am! Though I do admit, often when I'm recording I'm concentrating a lot and focusing more on "playing faultless" than on playing the music and pouring my emotions into it..
    I'm really glad you liked it though! :)

    ..Run through the cold of the night
    As passion burns in your heart
    Ready to fight, a knife held close by your side
    Like a proud wolf alone in the dark
    With eyes that watch the world
    And my name like a shadow
    On the face of the moon
    Broken mirror in million shades of light
    The old echo fades away
    But just you and I
    Can find the answer
    And then, we can run to the end of the world
    We can run to the end of the world
    Cold fire clenched to my heart
    In the blue of night
    Torn by this pain, I paint your name in sound
    And the girl of the dawn with eyes of blue, and angel wings
    The songs of the season are her only crown
    Broken mirror in million shades of light
    The old echo fades away
    But just you and I
    Can find the answer
    And then, we can run to the end of the world
    We can run to the end of the world
    We met in the mist of morning
    And parted deep in the night
    Broken sword and shield, and tears that never fall
    But run through the heart
    Washed away by the darkest water
    The world is peaceful and still
    Broken mirror in million shades of light
    The old echo fades away
    But just you and I
    Can find the answer
    And then, we can run to the end of the world
    We can run to the end of the world...
