"I want to meet you." "But...I'm right here?" (I know...I know... but what I mean is...) "I want to meet...you." Aerith knew all along that the Cloud that was traveling with them wasn't the real Cloud...She wanted to help him find himself, but she wasn't sure how. Sadly, he didn't discover his true self until she had long lost her mortal form... God I would have killed to experience this in the HD remake if only they hadn't completely altered the story.
Yea like the story was perfect. They screwed up the story and the characters. Sure, the side ones are usually okay, but the main four are always f up. Cloud was sad, lost but also goofy a little cocky and a bit dumb at times. Tifa was sweet but ready to tell someone off when angry. Aerith wasnt a manic pixie dream. She was funny and a little weird but not like “dream girl” weird but actually weird. Sephiroth was a bitter angry young man with a god complex and serious mommy issues.
I played FF7 when I was a kid, when it released. I never thought to mention it, but 4 years ago when i got married this is the song that my wife walked down the aisle, too. This exact version. So, thank you for making it. I come back and listen to it every couple months and it takes me back to that day.
Aerith: Cloud... I'm searching for you. Cloud: ...? Aerith: I want to meet you. Cloud: But I'm right here. Aerith: I know, I know... What I mean is... I want to meet... you. (あなたに。。。。。 会いたい。)
Updated 18 Nov 2017 Aerith: Wow. 「すっご～い」 Aerith: Cloud! 「CLOUD、ほら！」 (This part wasn't in the English version of Final Fantasy VII, I found this in the script of the Japanese version, maybe it's the rare version or something) Aerith: Wow, how nice. 「わあ、すご～い」 Aerith : Oh! Look, Cloud. 「あっ！ CLOUD見て」 Aerith: It's so pretty. 「わあ、きれ～」 Aerith: …it's beautiful, isn't it?「……きれいだね」 Aerith: would be able to just 「なら、きっと Aerith: come out and say it, probably ハッキリ言うんだろうな」 Cloud: Huh? 「はぁ？」 Aerith: …Beautiful, isn't it? 「……きれいだね」 Aerith: ……first off, 「……はじめはね Aerith: it bothered me how you そっくりだったから Aerith: looked exactly alike. 気になった」 Aerith: Two completely different people, 「全然別人なんだけど、そっくり」 Aerith : but look exactly the same. Aerith: The way you walk, gesture… 「歩きかた、手の動かしかた……」 Aerith : I think I must have seen him again, in you…「あなたの中に彼を見ていた……」 Aerith: But you're different. 「でも、ちがうの」 Aerith: Things are different… 「いまは、ちがう……」 Aerith: Cloud... 「ね、CLOUD」 Aerith: I'm searching for you. 「わたし、あなたをさがしてる」 Cloud: ...? 「……………？」 Aerith: I want to meet you. 「あなたに会いたい」 Cloud: But I'm right here. 「俺はここにいる」 Aerith: I know, I know... What I mean is... （うんうん、わかってる……でも） I want to meet... you. 「あなたに……会いたい」
@@worawatsr9803 Yes, she had. She saw him. People misread this comment all the time because they do not get this whole "real Cloud" thing. Cloud just confabulates and thus puts on a "mask," it is not like the "real Cloud" is an actual seperate person from him. That would be dissociative personality disorder. Two consciousnesses standing for two people. he however only could not cope with his failure, repressed memories, filled the gaps and then as a result unknowingly influenced his own character. While the rest of him subconciously tried to reach him. It is stated that Aerith saw which parts where from Cloud - because he as a matter of fact had a lot of his normal personality on the surface - and could very well differentiate. When she said she wanted to meet "him" she wanted to meet him fully healthy and also aware of who he was. When it comes to "she never met the real Cloud" in a literal sense the statetement is wrong. Cloud while wearing a mask met Aerith and it was the same Cloud that missed her later on. Even when he was restored again. The same Cloud that calls himself the master of his own illusions. . That is because there never was a literal second and unreal Cloud in the first place. Of course, if we speak in metaphors like when we say "you are not being yourself" then this whole "not the real Cloud" is correct.
+leonardo Cassandro That's so cool! Kudos! I really hope when she grows older and plays this beautiful game that it changes her life and how she interprets art!
Holy cow, this is amazing! I'm so glad to have stumbled upon this beautiful version of such a timeless piece filled with such nostalgic memory! Thank you Pontus Hultgren. About to move over to the Holding my thoughts in my heart version!
My god. I have this very odd sentiment about this song playing in my head when I finally find the person I'm meant to spend my life with. I scour the Internet looking for remastered versions and I am so critical on the performance, but I can say that this is the ONLY version besides the original that I have liked! You hit EVERY point, the dynamic swells in the right spot, the correct instrument to capture each movement. Very well done, I will be purchasing the album:P

I wish! Det har nog redan landat på någon av SquareEnix's hus-kompositörer :'( Samtidigt ett gräsligt stort ansvar att axla - vore kul att göra miljontals fans besvikna liksom!
this is absolutely stunning, oh my god. it's sounds so clean and beautiful, i'm gonna listen to the rest of it. :') i'm loving how it sounds, oh my god. i hope the remake makes the song sound something like this. so peaceful
+Kari Paez Considering Squeenix later years, this will consist of a female singer and guitars... nothing against that, but this is Final Fantasy for fucks sake, not Terminator.
TO BE HONEST!!! i'm not sure if you ever played any of the Kingdom Hearts series but in dream drop distance they remastered some soundtracks from The world ends with you and Calling, which was one of my faves, sucked so much oh my god why i'm very very very scared of what Squeenix is gonna do to some of the soundtracks like this one, or Tifa's theme, or Aerith's or holding my thoughts in my heart, you know? they are perfect now but then. what if they screw up. I am already used to the 9000 versions of One Winged Angel, but these songs are special to me and to the game and I'm just like. Squeenix pls. be faithful to Final Fantasy, thanks.
Kari Paez I don't know. I actualy thought FFXIV A Realm Reborn were good. Both gameplay and music wise. So I guess it's not completely over. But you have to consider that both Nobou and Hironobo are gone and so are many other from Square. And FFXIII were anything but a good Final Fantasy game. And seeing that they have said that VII remake is gonna be realesed in episodes points to another fuckup, sadly.
I can understand as to why he wouldn't want to hear this song anymore. Probably brings back too many memories. Memories he'd rather keep close to his heart rather than share them with the world.
The remake so far definitely isn't perfect, but I do think that they absolutely nailed the main characters so far. So I am really excited to see what they can do with this scene.
+Devil Hunter I'll get around to "Prelude" sometime later this year, have a lot of other stuff going on right now. Thanks for the encouragement though :)

I'm thankful to have grown up with this game.. I think this music will always touch my soul because of that..
Aerith:
Cloud...
I'm searching for you.
Cloud:
...?
Aerith:
I want to meet you.
Cloud:
But I'm right here.
Aerith:
I know, I know...
What I mean is...
I want to meet... you.

would be able to just 「なら、きっと

come out and say it, probably ハッキリ言うんだろうな」

Huh? 「はぁ？」
Aerith:
…Beautiful, isn't it? 「……きれいだね」
Aerith:
……first off, 「……はじめはね
Aerith:
it bothered me how you そっくりだったから
Aerith:
looked exactly alike. 気になった」
Aerith:
Two completely different people, 「全然別人なんだけど、そっくり」
Aerith : but look exactly the same.
Aerith:
The way you walk, gesture… 「歩きかた、手の動かしかた……」
Aerith :
I think I must have seen him again, in you…「あなたの中に彼を見ていた……」
Aerith:
But you're different. 「でも、ちがうの」

Things are different… 「いまは、ちがう……」

To think that this was the soundtrack of an actual game makes me think. It has become my daughter's favourite lullaby :)
+leonardo Cassandro That's awesome, man! May she grow to like the game and play it herself one day :)

That's beautiful bro, I hope you found yours
Merregnon Studios has a video of a live performance of this for Final Symphony. I highly recommend it for such an occasion. ☺️
This was one of my favorite songs in FF7 growing up...and to hear it redone in such quality and care is breath taking...thank you for making my night.
I love this song so much, I'm so happy to hear an orchestral arrangement of it, thank you.
This is so beautiful
I clicked the like button before the song even began. Been listening to your other songs and they're all amazing! Thank you!
Beautiful. You've made me cry and recalled all great memories from the Gold Saucer. Thank you :-)

Har SquareEnix kontaktat dig ännu? Denna omdirigerat versionen skulle passa perfekt för deras Remake av spelet alltså!!: )

+Pontus Hultgren Miljoner eller 4000, ingen skillnad enligt mig :)
This is absolutely breathtaking. This series is the best cover I have ever heard. Please make more!!! Thank you for this
Absolutely nailed it.

+edaciousellis yeah I do it's quite sweet haha
Beautiful and magical
Slow it down to .75 and it sounds just right...
Many thanks. I can't explain what it is like, maybe it's the feeling of connection knowing this is appreciated the same way.
😭 God this track really tugs at the old heart strings
Beautiful, one of my favorite pieces from this game.
It's really beautiful.
This song still gets to me depending on who cloud goes with for the date it is one of the last times to see Aerith😭
This is song on the game that you never ever see any remakes on...but is one of my favorites.
One dislike?
I believe that would be Cloud.
Heck, he even smashed the piano with his Buster Sword.
I can understand as to why he wouldn't want to hear this song anymore. Probably brings back too many memories. Memories he'd rather keep close to his heart rather than share them with the world.

No big deal it’s just the song that always makes me cry
Nice, how this great song is arranged! Very good work!
This is what a First Date with the woman you love sound like. Beautiful
Damn good way to explain it. Wow.
This one cuts me up, every time.
Amazing.
This album is amazing! Only the Highwind theme would be the icing on the cake.
el tono, los acordes, todo es perfecto, cierras los ojos y es paz :D
So beautiful😭
Im going to marry my girl, and im going to use this song while the opening ceremony.
Two of my biggest loves together. :')
"Aeris would be able to just come out and say it, probably."
2:42 please, i need link of that song. It sounds so much better than original imo
P.S. why don't you have more viewers again? This is outstanding
+Devil Hunter I'll get around to "Prelude" sometime later this year, have a lot of other stuff going on right now. Thanks for the encouragement though :)
***** thanks for quick answer. Wish you best of luck!
I'm not crying... You are crying :.(
We are all Crying
What instruments did you use?
Great job, by the way!
+LoesanTheTrashCan Thanks! Added info in description.
So
Am I the only phandom member that is sobbing or?
(This song is absolutely amazing, great job)

Cait Sith 😢
Phan Is Literally just Real.

+Michelle P.M. (Phan Trash) And it's going to be perfect. 💞💗
Phinal Phantasy
I just realized.
Alwais liked this music, and the scene. Prefer it with Aerith, "Spoiler" poor gal dies some time after and deserves a good time.
Literally destroys the original.
So beautiful😭
