Saraab by Simon Shaheen is the closest thing I could find similar to this watch?v=knxsZfX4Loo I appreciate anybody who can give me names of any similar songs or influences that this artist might have had. Thank you

[Pengasius14]

Elfen Lied: in my top 1 best anime ever.

[gotenstyle2]

Hey! Some people look all over the net to find this soundtrack as the Shinkai Cello version. There wasn't yet on Youtube so I decided to give it a go.

I've extracted (almost all) voices from the track and it isn't so clear.

Hope you enjoy it nonetheless.

Watch my other 2 Unreleased tracks of Elfen Lied!

[BABAMUMBU]

Where can I find similar music

[nemesmagyar]

Beautiful anime and wonderful ost :)

[ChannelYouMightLike]

Listening to this and reading the end of the manga is so sad T_T

[RurikoMYV]

[Battousai021188]

It´s so sad this song and at the same time, so beatiful and so weird that I don´t understand very well what I feel everytime I hear it.

[Please0pay0me0in0gum]

Nana and Mariko disliked this for not being the main Diclonicus in the series.

[mizzcherryfairy]

The Music is so beautyful. I love this Anime, i dont like the manga too much because there is no music :D . D: D

[yhari9175]

[nedwizard]

Man, this song made me appreciating cello a lot!!!

just listen the intro and note what a noble and

simultaneously pathetic cello sound can be!!

[nedwizard]

who cares that there isnt cat ears in anime?

for me it is still an element of fanservice.

(she has something like cat ears KAWAIII!!!)

[UnderStriper]

i havent heard dis song in elfen lied..will someone tell me what episode is this song played?

[games4james2]

@UnderStriper

it was on episode 6

at the part Kouta and Yuka found Lucy/Nyu and Lucy was trying to get away from them and then after she was about to tell him something important she turned back into Nyu and she said “Kouta! Kouta! Cuddle!”

[elfenliedelfenlied]

@UnderStriper

i recognized the song twice, first time in episode 6 i guess, when lucy fall on her knees in front of kouta and starts to cry - switchs back to nyu and refelects memories while he gives her a hug (sry for my englisch :D ) , the second time was probably episode 12 when in the train lucy calls kouta a liar and while he´s thinking about why she calls him this way, this was the background music of the memories again :D (i apologize again ^^)

[UnderStriper]

@elfenliedelfenlied

Tnx dude!!tnx alot..with that tune and the exact timing in using it into some clips in the movie rily makes my hair stood up!!it rily fits..although i rily frrl sory for lucy or nyuu..if i wer kouta i wud love that much!!

[LADiiANDii]

Does anybody know what 'shinkai' means ?

[kuolema211]

@LADiiANDii

I guess Shinkai means "Deep Sea" ...

[teddythebenny]

@kuolema211 .. hmm true, though, depending on the kanji, it could mean, Shin = NEW, KAI = release. a new existence.. or something XD ... u gotta love Japan.

[Aglotiy]

hermosa melodia

[animerXroxXmyXsoxX1]

This song gives you so many emotions that can jerk your heart in a depressing and somewhat deadly way...yes I said deadly..but it just has that one feeling of losing someone you love...it truly just feels that way to me (and no I have not seen the WHOLE anime)

[BuryUs]

@animerXroxXmyXsoxX1 What are you waiting for, then? Watch it instead of browsing youtube.

[Togolo7]

Fantastic !

[Skychi1234123]

goodnight sweet Angel,Lucy...

[animeFreakdechuXD]

beautiful..

[kecona]

I swear i've heard this on some flash game RPG..... it sounds so familiar.....

[luisimgb18]

Did Lucy see Kouta and Yuka kissing? I'm not certain of this,but I think she just saw them both walking on these stairs.I think she would kill Yuka,if she was to see this.

[InvaderZimFangirl42]

It makes me remember that something has happened a day ago and now you wake up and you feel alive and you thank that you are alive

so far many things has happened to me that was terrible and now i'm awake in the morning everyday feeling grateful that it is over and i will have to never make that happen again...

[InvaderZimFangirl42]

The most beautiful, powerful music from an anime i have ever listened

i really love how it started dark to very high music

love it from part 1:36 to the end....

[usamaki10]

Feels like... waking up the day after something terrible has happened, and remembering it...

[raling1000]

MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM­MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM­MMMMMMMMMMM DREAMS

[Aysoo124]

i love this song !!!!

[AngelesDante]

this would make great rpg music easily. I consider it a fav!

[Sadalmelek]

Shinkai means "deep sea" in Japanese.

A woman's heart is a deep ocean of secrets.



[EradicatingWarlock]

This song just puts the world at a stand still where I can just take a moment in time to reflect on things. Sound is a powerful thing indeed.

[JamalElHanine]

Someone could say me in what moment of the history can I hear that song? I just cant remember. I dont know why but this song breaks rips of my hearth...

[Darvek]

Lovely song, it makes me remember the past. This is the most painful song I have ever heard. It's a simple melody but this is so beautiful.

[d33eniz]

It touches my soul. Dammit. Firewall doesn't work.

[LINKthePIRATE913]

the cello realy tugs at the heart strings dosnt it? you here it literaly weep. my favourite track by far

[1nijigirl2]

This song makes me want to kill Yuka for making Lucy cry.

[BuddyPlatinum]

That bitch was crazy, she loved him too much but the song is ill as hell

[EndlessLove1905]

it plays on 6th episode

sad tune but meaningful..

[allhailfoamy1]

shinkai means true boundry lol wonder what role it played in elfen lied

[JoJobabylove12]

Reminds me of when i get jealous. Sometimes i act out really badly because i get so hurt. If i had invisible arms, id push that person to :/

[Botafumeiro]

The saddest and most painful song I've ever heard.

[usamaki10]

for some reason i imagine someone being raped and thrown in a gutter when i hear this :(

not a very pleasant thought...

[MyxImaginaryxWorld]

such a beautiful melody

[paddymoep]

I think this song is rather sad than beautiful or happy.

[0SnowfalI]

uh...after going thorugh links and all, is there someone named Shinkai in Naruto or is it just bad naming by someone else?

[bubblegumicecream00]

its so pretty D:

[NyuVSLucy88]

Wonderfull ....

[TheLeopard91]

this music is ver nice and makes me feel sensitive.

[KuroYuki100]

This song makes me really sad. This anime is so beautiful

[menzill]

I love you Lucy..

[LINKthePIRATE913]

cello.....beautiful...wow i love this song so much :')

[inuyashuk]

i love this song. i'm u sing this song 4 my sister wedding this 13.2.2010

[zaghell]

@inuyashuk this one is a super melancholic song, you better use it 4 a funeral. I mean I love it too but...

[Akaikitsune13]

this one is the best ost ever!!! :D

[bleachigo36]

gives me the chills no matter how many times I listen...one of my all time favorite anime, too.

[asdsades]

awesome song from a awsome anime!!

[TheZoddono]

me gusta mucho shinkai ,aunque me produce tristesa en realidad mucha.

[TheZoddono]

shinkai , me gusta mucho por que refleja etapas muy tristes de mi vida , yo perdi a toda mi familia debido al rencor ,el odio y la intolerancia a lo que es diferente y vanguardista

[DallasGreenRockz]

i don't care what anyone thinks, to me, this is real music, emotion pouring out so beautifully it makes one think what truly matters in this world

[xxxxiangxxxx]

every part of this song is perfect.

[elfenliedelfenlied]

@DallasGreenRockz

I agree with you in every letter, and i´m absolutely not the only one. Probably the only one with that bad englisch knowledge, but you´re speaking truth dude.

[usamaki10]

cello = awesome

[KaiyuKohai]

This song is so heartbreakingly sad, and yet, it makes my heart beat faster whenever I hear it. It makes me want to cry at the same time.

[ddferrer]

If a song was ever moving enough to tug at your heart strings, it's this one.

[oplilium]

Unbelieable.

[16chobits]

so relaxing...i love it!

[MlWindscar09]

Is it odd that after watching this anime I developed a cat ear fetish O_o

[Smaksmilla]

Yes it is, since it's HORNS on her head.

[MlWindscar09]

I am aware of this.... twas only a joke my friend -_-

[bfslxo]

@MlWindscar09 Yeah, Considering there isnt any Cat ears in the anime.

[MlWindscar09]

@bfslxo jesus christ people i was making a joke i know damn well that they're horns.... fans take things so literally.... lighten up tight ass

[coolhorseman123]

@MlWindscar09 only because there aren't cat ears in Elfen Lied lol.

[MlWindscar09]

@coolhorseman123 that comment is a year old, and i know that there not cat ears lol i was just being funny

[InternetLawman]

@MlWindscar09 Yes. Yes, it is extremely weird.

[MlWindscar09]

@InternetLawman to each his own pal.... and why in the world are people still addressing my year old comment lol

[katiaterarocks]

@MlWindscar09 there not ears,there horns

watch elfen lied

[MlWindscar09]

@MlWindscar09 Stop telling me they're horns people... i knew they were horns before i posted... this is what we people who are able to keep our smug narcissistic heads out of our asses call a joke.... but i forget that you people lack any sense of fucking humor.... jesus

[Blackjack185]

Beautiful.

[flanflinflan]

this song is my favorite sad song ever

[magico2222]

very fack...... god!!!

[poul3tte93]

woah *-*

[erkanbuyuk]

oh my god ı love this song

[handassendil]

genial

[summ3rland]

The beginning reminds me of Sailor Moon for some reason.

[ulquiorraaespada]

Whats ShinKai translate into

Shin has something to do with death i know

[Hawkmask]

Shinkai actually means 'deep sea' (literally) this is from a translator online

[Jolteon416]

Kai means answers or solutions so... Death Answers!

[Sadalmelek]

*Sigh*

Shinkai means literally "heart of ocean", or more precisely, "ocean depths".

[danguoledddddddddd]

I like elfen Lied!!!!

[QDRHTDTLRJ]

does anybody know where to find notes?

[sk8rgirl48]

I love this song so much!

[lupara90]

So PERFECT Song, just LOVE it!!!

[EnviroNika]

beautiful

[casablanka1987]

sad...

just sad

[Super015]

veramente molto bella

[jomaro1988]

just one, best anime, and best music,

really sad that there r only 13 episods ;)

love it

[shadowraiper]

i think it was forced to end early

[jomaro1988]

yeah ;)

[mizo155]

why was it forced to end early ???

[PrPirtply]

put it on loop... i don't get tired of it, and it seems like it goes on.

[mizo155]

no i meant the series...why was it forced to end within 13 episodes ??

[bvuong8414]

Thing is, I believe if it were extended to the 26 episode series list, the anime would've had fillers which doesn't quite suit this anime whatsoever. Especially with the fast-paced flashbacks and how they were all connected together with one scene. In the end, the series worked best in the 13 episode slot in my opinion though I do, too, wish it was a bit longer like another episode maybe :/

[mizo155]

in my opinion the base story line is rich enough to come up with a 26 episodes without fillers.

you still do have a good point thanks for sharing :)

[WfSouYiR0]

@bvuong8414 read the mango

[bvuong8414]

HA, i never thought about doing that actually. Thank you for that.

[bvuong8414]

@WfSouYiR0 It's a little late but I finally actually read the manga; they could really fit in another season, probably even the 24/26 episode ordeal. That would be awesome! Thanks for giving me the idea; I would've never thought of reading manga despite how obvious it might've been.

[Anniechan666]

@bvuong8414

the thing is the anime caught up to the manga so they couldn't do more episodes. I'm not spoiling it but things happen diffrently in the manga

[davidealessio]

true.. i want another episode so bad..

[janersulce32]

Yeah if they made second season it would be just another anime ....

Being so short and keeping the momentum of the story going and even leaving the end open it really makes the curiosity of the aoudience watching it beg for an explanation and engage in inconclusive debate of what ifs

It really leaves place for some creative thinking and every one gets to have the ending they want, plus the bitter ending is just a compliment of the story grading from a happy one to a sad one

[leron7337]

how do u do that?

'

[grsalzaval]

thank you for having it on i really love it it calms me down......its amazing....

[liongirl523]

Wow so many of these songs are beautiful especially this one

[flanflinflan]

again.. this song touch my soul

[flanflinflan]

i want cry when i listen this song.. is very .. very.. SAD!

[flanflinflan]

:'(

[nigfhts]

it show that even the ones that are titled "demonic" have a heart. episode 13 and episode 3 had been the most epic ones for me when Mayu remembered her past...i felt like crying because i just finnished a pice on sexual abuse of a child

[nigfhts]

correction: it wasn't episode 3 it was episode 5

[Botro1]

If you find the anime touching, you should definitely read the manga, I cried like I never cried before...

[Botro1]

Truly one of the best instrumental musics in Elfen Lied.

5/5 because I love the series and this instrumental music in particular

[Nomdutilisateurprix]

MaGnIfiQuE

Un grand bravo aux créateurs, sa me fait pensé aux musiques orientales

[KotsuSaku]

I love this song as well as the one that plays on episode 12 when Lucy kills Shirakawa

[TemariandGaaraROCK]

Isn't Shirakawa...uhhh...the professor,or that lady that works for chief?

[KotsuSaku]

The lady who worked for the Cheif

[TemariandGaaraROCK]

Oh thx,the one with the glasses,right?

[KotsuSaku]

Yup

[arcueidakiha]

lovely song, remember me when lucy cried at the dragons temple when saw kouta and yuka`s kiss :(

[TemariandGaaraROCK]

Yeah...that was my fave scene out of the whole series....

[gotenstyle]

@arcueidakiha I've been by that temple in for real :)

It was also raining that day... I have some photo's of that place (and the stairs of episode 1).

[martingrave15]

Love this music.

[nikossan]

the best music
