Good voice, but this song doesn't sound as good as Japanese version.

[linfengi]

Yes, I'm deeply moved by the English version sung by Hayley. Before learning about the lyrics in English I did love the original Japanese lyrics that's a real story made me cry. It's not easy to sing such a song in English with the same feelings touched in my mind as I sing it in Japanese lyrics. This is another reason I like Hayley's English version. She is such a wonderful singer in her own style that no need to compare with other singers.

[BatsaikhanMr]

wow good this is very nice song i like ^_-

[dhsnfuducndausfvusdf]

Good thing that this version is so faithful to the original lyrics.

I'm Okinawan and love this song very, very much. At the moment I live far, far away from Okinawa. This song reminds me of living there, my friends, of course my family. I personally think it's really difficult to translate from original lyrics to English because some Japanese are unable to explain in English and other way around is also impossible. I can feel her emotion and her voice is so sweet. Thanks for uploading!!!!!

[blackcatgodforever]

I thought this was going to be in Japanesem I prefer the original because of the emotional sadness that it builds; i'm not referring that this is bad but it ain't my type btw she has an amazing voice, i pretty much think if it was a love song, her voice would actually make the song inspirat.

[Sayuridesu]

I don't hear any emotion in this version...she is just singing a song...Moriyama Ryoko and Natsukawa Rimi REALLY sing this song.

[colliezoya]

@Sayuridesu Everybody is entitled to their own opinions, but no need to compare complete different people. You should watch Hayley perform live, you might change your mind ;)

[eriquerique]

@colliezoya That's true to some extent, but there are exceptions. "Nada sousou" is a song from Okinawa. Natsukawa Rimi is herself an Okinawan and Moriyama Ryoko who wrote the song wrote it in the memory of her late brother who died in war. Needless to say, they really know what they're singing, with all its associated sentiment, emotion, history, and importance of the song. Their renditions are far more profound and emotional because this song actually means a great deal for them.

[AnemoneTrance]

best song ever <3

For those who lost loved ones, this song is unbearably painful, yet it is somehow comforting as well.

I was introduced to this song by a friend only a couple of months after losing my dear husband - so soon that the phrase "your memories may fade" tore my already-wounded-heart twice over and I never could listen to the whole song until a few days ago.

Now 17 months on, although I still see every expression on his face, hear his voice, smell his favourite scent so easily and so vividly, I seem to have regained some strength to accept all those phrases however painful they may be.

I suppose it is comforting because the song speaks for my grief. Listening to Hayley's beautiful voice, while I "drown in my own tears", gives me a small but certain solace like a tiny sunlight through the leaves in deep and dark forest.

I do believe we will be together once again

Thanking colliezoya for uploading and thinking of those who lost many loved ones in recent Japanese earthquake and tsunami.

[sunnubabyc]

@overpwnageuber Dear, thanks for your information. I do know that the original is in Japanese, since I don't understand Japanese, English version is easier for me to approach it.
