  • When I get old, I'll walk into a bar and ask for this song by saying:

    "Son, can you play me a memory? I'm not really sure how it goes.

    But it's sad and it's sweet, and I knew it complete when I wore a younger man's clothes."

  • I must say.... I've watched a lot of videos on the playing of this song, and to be frank.. yours is the one I personally like the most.. o.o good job.

  • very nice:) can you send me the notes via e-mail

    that would be very nice jennycrazy@hotmail.de

  • YOU ARE THE MASTER I LOVE THIS  SONG!!!!!!

  • I started playing Piano today for my first time, and decided to go for this song. I know I should go for something easier, but it motivates me insanly when I absolutely love the music. And this is one of my favorites. I almost got the first 15 seconds down, any tips there I'm having trouble stretching my left hand to cover all the notes, I can do it but sometimes mess up, also I get tired in my fingers after a while ;P Thanks for this video =)

  • Dude, you kick everything in the face!

  • I NEED THIS PIANOSHEETS!1PLEASE SOME ONE!

  • I have enjoyed "blitzwater's" videos for years. and anytime anyone asks "why do you want to play video game music" i always show them videos from blitzwater.

  • Nice... i have those sheets but if you play it with the actual songs, theres some notes missing... Maybe someone can light me up on the subject?

  • Is the tutorial really this version, because they sound a bit different =s?

  • i'm a fan of FFX and FFX-2 games and ost.. listening to this piano cover just makes me kinda miss the good old days playing the game.. superb work.. and the guitar cover is also superbly done.. nice one man.. keep up the good work!

  • wat key is this song in? anyone know where i can find some accurate sheet music at? i tried ffshrine but it wasn't accurate... unless i just suck at piano

  • i give you MAJOR props for 0:58-1:01 because of how you play so smoothly even though the left hand sorta crosses into the right hand's path. great job man

  • I played piano for a about a year then stop trying to learn. but listening to this has gave me the will to try harder and learn more and play better. and one day i will learn this song. and be greatful to stumble apon your video.

  • I'm in awe....

  • You are a flippin god. Being able to play this song and all. It was very beautiful <3

  • ooooo THIS IS LIKE THE REAL VER XDDD can i have the link to the score? i can't find it at your page >3<

  • scheiße schwer!

  • Your about the only person who plays it properly like outta the game, everyone else on youtube who plays this starts off with some god awful chord at the start. Thumbs up to you and your dad who made an awsome version of this song on the guitar.

  • For me, this song is harder than To Zanarkand.

  • joli kyboard. :)

  • i have checked all these websites and i cannot find the sheet music! i found it at ffshrine but it was in this weird file... help?

  • It's just so fluid! I could watch you playing piano forever

  • This deserves more views ;A;

  • Favorited. Such a sweet, yet sad song. Whoever is playing really does it justice.

  • Magnificent rendition. You matched the mood and texture of the original piece most excellently.

Kudos to you, once again id like to congradulate you on working on this and you should keep up the hard work. Brilliant i say

  • I always play it too fast. =/

  • where did you learn how to play piano? you're good.

  • I really like the tempo you picked for this song. It really pulls on the heartstrings.

  • That was great. You kept the magic of that song.

    Your hands are nice to watch (I play piano, too, so, to me, your fingers don't hesitate much and play with ease and are graceful. ^^).

  • Wow this sounds SOOOOOOO clean and calming, it's actually calming then the original XD and the way your hands flow by the keys as actually really calming too it's like water almost, good job :)

  • I absolutely love Eternity Memory of Lightwaves - its my most favourite melody, and there are no covers that i liked till now! You've played it with such emotion in it.. it really does sound like the original and thats just beautiful. Keep up the good work, you're really talented =)

  • so beautiful

  • Very good :) I wish i could play this one day lol

  • Are you using a pedal? I don't have a pedal on mine and I can only do the first part without one but looking at the range of the notes on the other parts it looks like you might need it. Just need to know so I can get one asap. On another note excellent job.

    Is it me, or am I one of the few people who really enjoyed FF X-2 A LOT ? LOL

  • @stillprince

    XD Thanks man! Yeah that's my dad.

    I haven't actually beaten FF X-2 yet :<, but only cause I rented it from a friend. I love the opening for it though. It's primarily one of the reasons why I wanted to learn Piano.

  • @blitzwater i learned becuz of imagine by john lennon

  • I enjoyed X-2, because I enjoyed X so much.

  • @stillprince I was able to resist the girlie pop, so I enjoyed it, too ;P

  • @stillprince you're not alone. I enjoyed FFX2 a lot too :D

  • @stillprince i am too lol! and I love how this has been played, it is one of my fav pieces from FFX-2!

  • this is perfect!

  • Nice ... like Ever when you do a cover...

  • U r a very talented person. thank you i very much enjoyed listnin to you and ur father . keep up the good work and wish u all the best

  • Thank you for your kind words!

  • Liked 10 better, but the opening for X-2 was great.

  • i was in our high school choir room after class once playing this and my teacher comes out of no where and was like "That piece is Beautiful... where did you learn that??" and i was like

    "A video on youtube taught me!!" Thanks again:) -Kate

  • Hahaha, awesome!

  • im learning to play this but i cant get the left hand at like the chorus bit....any tips?? 5/5 **

  • @XxYunakanixX

    The only tip I can really say is, practice the left hand chorus using only your left hand. Practice at a slow pace so you can learn it. If you start to get it, speed it up. If you can, read the sheed music.

    And Thanks!

  • @blitzwater thankyou and your welcome xx i have the sheet music so i'll give it a go xxxx thanks again

  • 5* stars!

  • this is awesome...good job! Where did you learn to play this version?

  • @azumangaX

    I found sheet music on a site. It's from Arnold Morrison. Though, I also listened to the original game sound track a lot. His version helped at the time when I was learning.

  • i've been dying for this piece of sheet music. nicely done(:

  • wow.... ive been playing for a little while but nothing compared to you. im trying to learn this with your tutorial vid but its so hard to get my hands to move that fast! lol but def. best piano song on youtube, mad props

  • L love this song 4 ever....

    great skill ! !

  • do you have the partitures of this song ?

    if you have...send to me

    thanks !

  • just amazing...more simple then that was impossible !

    =)

  • ur so amazing. im trying to learn this song via ur video on vidoemo , but its really hard to learn the difficult part, because sometimes i cant see clearly which note u hit. its also hard, because u show that part with only one hand at a time n not together,thats a pity, because that made it a bit easier to play both hands. But you did really great and now that I hear you playing not for tutorial i really want to learn that difficult part even more. It sounds so lovely when u play it.

  • this is my favourite piano song for 2 years now!!

  • thanks man im getting my first keyboard and just wonderd if it wud be a good one to start with . :)

    your playing makes me speechless. :O

  • XD you're welcome and thanks!

  • whats the name of your keyboard?:)

  • It's a Yamaha P60. It's currently discontinued and no longer manufactured. So the P85 is the next choice.

    I also used a Yamaha Motif Rack ES for the actual piano sound.

  • that. was. asowme! Wnt to learn! i know how to play To Zanarkand.I Taught myself.

  • butterfly ,,,,,,, nothing better,,,,,so smooth just takes u to anywhere u can imagine ,,,,,,,simply beautiful.....:)

  • That was truely beautiful.

    You did an amazing job.

  • i love watching this

    i'm sort of torturing myself by doing so though, i'm trying to learn this using that excellent tutorial blitzwater posted, and it's fucking hard, to watch someone do it so easily...

    ...excellent stuff

  • perfection...your playing and this song :)

  • i`m so touch by this mucis

  • Awesome song - well played. :)

  • ughh...when i had the choice to choose guitar or piano...i chose guitar...now i am sad...even a metalhead like me loves this song...sooo...tabs? LOL

  • @RedRage972 Agree, i get crazy with metal, but this music have something really special, that gives a feeling that you cant explain.

  • amazing song

  • Sounds good, want to learn,a pity that the Chinese can not find the full music score

  • Usually I hate it when people other than the creator play music but this is simply amazing... no, better. Somebody should make up a word just for how beautifully you play music, you're truly talented!

  • That was beautiful :) I loved it. It sounds so peaceful and relaxing.

  • it sounds like you're missing some notes, but [[shrugs]] it still sounds really good. i like how you moved up some octaves as you played <3

  • omgsh i love this guy ! ive always wanted to play this song

    is this your official title now? o.o

  • For soundclick only.

  • still as beautiful as ever x)

  • Thanks XD. New videos are gonna be coming soon haha.

  • BEAUITFUL! nice work man

  • is this the arnold morrison arrangement??

  • yeah

  • awhh i love it :D

    this is my favorite final fantasy song,

    after in zanarkand.

    im learning how to play this from some sheets and your tutorial. iv'e got the whole right hand down and iv'e managed to get the first four measures for the left hand :D haha i just got an electric keyboard, and iv'e never really played, but i can read notes and it shows them so its easy. lmao. well thanks and good work! <3

  • still the best

  • Wow, dude, you play great. Such an inspiration. Im learning this song, i know the main part and verse must just learn the hard part and hopefully ill know it by next year. Great stuff, Keep it up.

  • Ok so. This is the 1000 video I search for this music and it was THE only one I liked, you're very good. I don't know why, the others sounded like a completely different music, from a completly different sheet.

    Congrats, it's very smooth

  • Thanks man haha

  • yeah same here. ive looked at other videos and they seem to go at different tempos. i like this one better! Keep up the good work blitzwater!

  • this is perfect every note perfect can you send me this in sheets PLEASE!!!! :)

  • this nearly put me in tears. one of the best pieces ever composed hands down.

  • i've just started to play the keyboard about 2 months ago should i even try to learn this song yet?

  • It depends on how much of a challenge you want. There are several chords and arpeggios in this piece, so once you get them down, it becomes pretty easy. I say go for it. =)

  • I love this piece alot, especially on piano. It sounds really really really smoothing to ears. It'll bring you to the world you cant imagine. <3

    Great piece! Good recording too :)

  • i really wan to play final fantasy but my brother thinks i need more practice......

  • 5* Best *_*

  • never played final fantasy before but kingdom heart rocks!!

  • Hi

    what patch do you use? its a factory preset? if not, could you send it to me?

  • I love how your left hand moves. It's.. majestic..

  • That's what she said...LOL. JK. xD

  • d'you think you could convert this into an mp3 file I could download? :D

  • go to v g m u s i c . c o m (without the spaces of course. youtube doesn't let you post websites I guess.) find this song under the playstation 2 game "Final Fantasy XII", right click the song, download it, go to google and search for a MIDI to MP3 converter. Convert the file and you have it.

  • @ Gamer, this is from X-2 not XII, correct me if i'm wrong.
