Why does everyone who's filming themselves playing piano always start the film by walking over to the piano? Nothing wrong with it, just pointing it out...
@kickerofelves123 Mainly I think at least for me it's more faster. If I had to do cutting that would mean I would have to use a movie film editor, cut it, and render the whole video again (which reduces quality). And plus having a slow internet it takes about 2 hours just to upload 100 MB vid.
Nice version. Sounds pretty close to the S Generation version. FF VIII may be a game that divides the FF audience, but I think it has the best overall music in the entire series. Good job.
Oh and I love all the final fantasy but to be honest I literally on finished 9 twice in a row... I don't know why I loved it so much but I still have all originals starting from 1 till well now. Since a new one came out.... Oh I am completely rambleing... Sorry! :) oh and I put #s cause I'm bad with roman numerals.... Sorry..... Keep playing!!! If you want to... That wasn't a command or any thing.... I'm sorry I'm an idiot... Have a good day!!
@physmer HEY YOU, another FFIX Lover. Surprising! Since you actually played the so called infamous FF7. Yeah I was weened on FF8, that was a great game, my second best, but what you said is absolute. I love Final Fantasy IX too! People get turned off by the unrealistic disneyfied characters, but if people could get past their there is a great lot of emotional depth and humor! And plus the music! And cannot forget about the ending =]
If you like FFIX, you might interested in my other videos of FF9 - Melodies of Life piano collection version. It's my most popular video, which I am proud of, because FFIX is very underrated and it makes me happy, I could exhibit FFIX in such an emotional fashion that people adore.
I seriously enjoy listening to this! Do you enjoy the piano? I realy do think that you are gifted... I have no musical talent. :) the only thing I'm good at is art random facts and complimenting... And even then I am mediocre at best..... Which is.... Silly... But you are truely amazing!!!! I really really mean that!!!!!!!
@physmer Haha like everything, I am jack of all master of none. Sometimes I don't have much motivation and sometimes I do. You know, where the grass is always greener on the otherside? But I still love the piano even in the bad times. Thanks for the comment, I appreciate it!
Well perhaps you might be a very good critic, Some people are terrible at music but have a great eye to detail. So you like drawing? Do you have deviantart account?
Ahh, I think you banged on a lot of notes in this piece. =( Maybe you wanted to play louder in order for the camera to catch the sound? But I really felt like this piece was pushed.
Yeah, a lot of that has to do with the piano itself. It's not the best piano to play on. It might sound banged now but that's even worse before I reduced the sound when converting it.
An Everett isn't the best piano to play on, try taking a look at the piano concert in my profile, a grand makes a hell of a difference =]
All that stuff you said in the info, I agree with you. Right on! Final Fantasy VIII is really great. It's just a shame that it was overshadowed by FFVII. I'll never forget when I watched that scene for the first time at the beginning. Even thought I find the graphics in FFX breathtaking too at some points, this scene was just amazing. And a great game to back it up too.
Great playing. I really love this tune. The best I can do is Balamb Garden wich has a bit from this tune at the end. ^_^
Outstanding! Man this was such a great game. I started playing it immediately after i beat FFVII, and found that i liked it JUST as much, if not more. Mostly because i was so much more emotionally involved compared to 7. The music/graphics(at the time)/relationships make this game one of a kind. Possibly the best videogame experience i've ever had.
Do you know if/where i can get this sheet music on the internet?
Very amazing!! FFX was the first RPG game that i ever really played, when i was little i always told my brother that he was wasting his time playing these kinda games then i tryed it and I couldnt put it down. I havnt playedd FFVII yet but frm what I have heard its supposed to be the best one, I did see the advent children movie and its great!
is it strange that you can play a game as a kid and then listen to someone play a song from it on youtube so many years later and have it bring a tear to your eye
Was it raining outside when the video was being recorded? Because I thought I heard thunder. Anyways, that and the music played has passed my line of expectations. Good Job.
Very well done. I especially liked how the light rain and thunder in the background added to the atmosphere of the piece. Definitely my favorite Final Fantasy soundtrack.
Im crying, lol. that was really great. It makes me feel happy listening to such beautiful composition. Wow, i must say what a great piece. ty for putting it on youtube. Ur the best man.
you sure write a beautiful, moving video info section.. this is the first video where i actually enjoyed reading through the info while listening to the playing. you're a very interesting person
well done! im gonna learn the ost version pretty soon (piano collections is too difficult!). Final Fantasy VIII is great! i just started playing it a few weeks ago and im on disk 3. Already it's a favourite, right up there with Final Fantasy VII and Chrono Trigger
You are amazing!! :D How long did it take you to learn the song? I started playing the piano a couple years ago and I simply cannot play like that lol. You did a beautiful job! *applauds*
Thank you I originally learned this piece which took about 2 months, and 1 month for mastering. I am not a heavy hitter when it comes to practicing which can be good. If you have time it is great to decrease your practice times for a longer period, this makes practicing less difficult and boring.
btw i first encountered ff8 the same way.. i played it on a demo disc before it came out and didnt like it due to 'baby' games lol but when a friend let me borrow the full game a year or so later i was hooked.. first final fantasy i played and still my favorite in every aspect from music to characters
im learning final fantasy stuff on piano :D im not quite as good as you but i can play the first 25-30 seconds of fishermans horizon and im working on this song also. FF music for the win! i still enjoy your videos dude i hope to see some more soon
This song brings back many sweet memories of Final Fantasy 8. I don't know how this video has slipped by me for so long. This is a sure favorite. You played the song very well and made it sound just as beautiful as I remember. The word "Ami" itself doesn't register with my limited ability to read, write, and speak Japanese but I could be wrong. And the long description provides a lot of insight and are as interesting and entertaining as the music you play.
Haha, thanks! And Sadly no, I haven't been able to play final fantasy at all for a long time due to school. I hope to play some if this week since I have time off.
Its been a while since I've played the game but I think it was first played with the first Laguna sequence. Laguna and his friends wanted to go to town to have a drink. While at the hotel's bar, Laguna's crush (Julia, I think) was playing this song.
Haha nope, actually Julia was playing a rendition of Faye Wong's Eyes on me on the piano. There were many different arrangements of Ami, but most notably, Ami was found playing in the background of Trabia Garden (sp?). The place when the nuclear bombs went off, and where Selphie tries to fix the garden's computer, and the court where the characters would remember their past is found her. Also some melody lines of Ami is also heard in Balamb garden too.
What can I say...well played and I really enjoyed reading the text as well. It was a very important game in my life either and helped me a lot to find my own personality. Listening to the songs again gives me such a nostalgic feeling.
i wish i have 6 and 9 tho 6 has kwl music lol i thought 10 and 8 are only ebst cos of story and msuic lol tis wot i enjoy buti think ur opinion is gr8 too, and yeah kwl taht u are both twins lol ur both too talented lol. u trying to be game developer aswell?...
Yes... It was part of the reason why I haven't been able to post much updates lately, game development takes a lot of work... but I enjoy it, and thanks for the comment!
Nicely played. FFVIII has great music. Regarding other people's comment. FFVII is a great game better than VIII, although asides from X-2 there hasn't really been a terrible FF... so its not like its losing to anything bad. Order of the best ffs 7 10 9 8 6 12 then all those other ones are hard to compare... they are too old and out of date but still great games.
i always thought ff8 was the best followed by ff10 i dunno wot is so special about 7 but yh i LOVE this tune its amazing u played it well too lol, im so learnign this 1 aswell...ur manhoparks broter im guessing lol!
wow... dont know if its just me, but the memories from final fantasy and the sound of the rain is bring a tear tomy eye... there is just something about classic games which always stays with you...
yeah, i'm glad there's people like me who DO enjoy the music to the game. When i played ff8 for the first time i was like: "i have to get this cd" lol great music, rock on brother
How nostalgic. I remember the game and when I first heard this song played by a very grand pianist, CheonHoPark. Thank you for posting such a beautiful piece.
Very good - FF8 was a superb game, however I played FF VII; FF VIII; FF IX; FF X; FF X-2 and FF XII and I think the music from FFX/FFX-2 is the best (although I'm only 1/2 way through FF XII and thats got some good music)
I believe that the story of ff7 is better of that of ff8 because to pleases of more and then I prefer of more cloud to squall because is the lonely and mysterious type of the group^^
as far as storyline goes i believe that there both equal as far as character goes squalls better. love the cool cloths and attitude and where alot alike. beat the game litteraly 32 times or more.
I've been playing FFX & I love it. I'd like to play FF7, FF8 & FF9. Just last year I was introduced to the final fantasy games (FFX) & I have been hooked ever since.
Awesome, I recommend that you play all those games... You might have a harder time getting into 7 due to the dated graphics... if you liked X though, you might like IX. Thanks for the comment.
Beautiful. Excellent playing! FF8 is one of the best RPGs I've ever played, if you ask me! (Skipped 10... no interest there. And I haven't beaten 12... it's cool, but nowhere near 7 or 8, or even 9...)
I believe FFVII and FFX are probably the most popular in terms of sales, but it could be a unmistakable judgment, I personally hold 8 and 9 closer to my favorites though :P Most of the pieces I play are from that locale. :-)
holala sa me rappelle alala arrete sa me rend tou jeune sa me tou bizare de rentendre sa c mon best celui la je ne loublirai jamais waw comme c magique de le reentendre encore une foi vraiment tu joue bien ! normal pour les japonais vraiment si tou les pays etai comme vous ! respect d'un francais :)
You're quite the talented player. If you're into games of that age, and also games with great music, you should look into a great piece of work called Chrono Cross. To this day, it's still my favorite.
Oh yeah, I heard some mighty good reviews on that but never got around to it, I might want to add that to my collection though, SquareSoft did produce it. :D
At least make sure you do a Youtube search or something of the sort to hear the opening song. That is probably my favorite piece of music in the entire world.
Beautiful rendition; this is one of my absolute favorites from the game, and you do it justice. Also, I personally believe FFVIII was the best of the lot. Possibly because it was my first FF game, but no other FF game has quite the same feeling as VIII instills in me.
GO FFVIII! I love that game too, I mean it was the first FF I came to know! I watched my uncle play it and I would just cheer him on! YEAH! FFVIII FOREVER! Xd
dude u seem to really like this game. i mean ive been a FF geek since i first laid finger on a nintendo controller. but i can honestly say this was by far my favorite 1, the main char Squall seemed to have the same type of attitude i have and i really connected with the game. me and my friend always quarrel wether 7 or 8 was better, but this is always the best! and is it me or is the 1 festival scene really fukkin cool.
haha we share the same taste, although I can't judge on the best game, sadly (and most ironically) I never played 7, which is weird... because that is the game that was most popular back in the day, I was first weened on ff8, so of course my expectations were met. Perhaps it even got better when I got to ff9.
I just love this song, and your cover of it sounds just like the original. I just can't get over how amazing all of the Final Fantasy music is, and I feel like a dork for saying so lol...and I never knew what Ami meant either...but I'm glad that I found out, thanks for that...but anyways, your an awesome pianist, keep up the great work.
Actually he is on "Cheon's" side, He was referring to those lamers who spam my videos with stupid, "Send this message 5 times and you will find your love by next week," (which I deleted) I salute you both :-)
Keyboard is more then good enough, I preferably would rather play on that then, forced to play one some other instrument... I think the piano is much more vibrant by itself... then playing ff music on just a flute (one lined notes are harder to hold a status on its own I think).
hearing you play this brought tears to my eyes. FF8 was my favorite rpg of all time and reading your note while listening really brought me back. thank you.
Nice job on this song, only a few little mistakes. I loved learning this song, and I love playing it. I didn't think it was very difficult, but if you really want a chalenge, try Fighting from the FFVII piano collections. Now that's hard. Or if you want a little less of a challege, try Besaid Island from FFX piano colletions, that's a fun one to play.
Haha yeah my bro pretty much "revised" his ff fighting. I think MOL is much harder compared to this piece. But I think probably the most difficult one currently will be OWA... but yes, take a look at my bro's attempt, if you haven't, Manhopark... If you haven't came across it yet.
I've got to say to was well done. Not an easy song. FF8 happens to be my favorite, I've played every Final Fantasy and had great respect for the music in 7,8,9,X(I think your "To Zanarkand" was nothing less than perfect!).
Question from a a person who wants to play piano soon:
is it hard to play different tunes/melodies (not sure if thats the right word to use) with both hands? its like ur hands are doing 2 different thing when pianist play the piano. its almost like multi-tasking is needed to play a piano from what i see
Yes is it is difficult, and the only advice I can give you is that it takes time, Surprisingly I learned this piece 4 years ago and I still make mistakes.
haha, i'm going to start learning soon... tap out "keys" with your right hand on a desk or whatever while independantly playing chord type keys with your left hand, it's so hard, looking forward to the challenge though, Guitar was hard at first :)
i miss balamb garden.. :(

I've played all of the FF series, from FF 1 to 12, yet, I still had ff8's music as my favorite song from FF series :)
p4lad1n2000 4 years ago
Very good - FF8 was a superb game, however I played FF VII; FF VIII; FF IX; FF X; FF X-2 and FF XII and I think the music from FFX/FFX-2 is the best (although I'm only 1/2 way through FF XII and thats got some good music)

i don't know but for me ff7 it's much better than ff8 because i like cloud^^
sasuke65743 4 years ago
very nice. i don't know why they rated ff7 better than this when 8 has MUCH better graphics and gameplay.
ultimaweapon2000 4 years ago
I believe that the story of ff7 is better of that of ff8 because to pleases of more and then I prefer of more cloud to squall because is the lonely and mysterious type of the group^^
sasuke65743 4 years ago
as far as storyline goes i believe that there both equal as far as character goes squalls better. love the cool cloths and attitude and where alot alike. beat the game litteraly 32 times or more.

Awesome, I recommend that you play all those games... You might have a harder time getting into 7 due to the dated graphics... if you liked X though, you might like IX. Thanks for the comment.

Beautiful. Excellent playing! FF8 is one of the best RPGs I've ever played, if you ask me! (Skipped 10... no interest there. And I haven't beaten 12... it's cool, but nowhere near 7 or 8, or even 9...)
DraconumPB 4 years ago
um no i wouldn't call it satirical, i'd call it coincidential.
anyway, FFVIII being my favorite game of all, you did an EXCELLENT job :)
I remember this song being played at Trabia Garden, it made me so sad.
Who says FFVII is a gem? I think VIII and IX are so much better (not to mention IV and V).
pinkanimesmiles 4 years ago
I believe FFVII and FFX are probably the most popular in terms of sales, but it could be a unmistakable judgment, I personally hold 8 and 9 closer to my favorites though :P Most of the pieces I play are from that locale. :-)

You're quite the talented player. If you're into games of that age, and also games with great music, you should look into a great piece of work called Chrono Cross. To this day, it's still my favorite.
inflames255 4 years ago
Oh yeah, I heard some mighty good reviews on that but never got around to it, I might want to add that to my collection though, SquareSoft did produce it. :D
CheonHoPark 4 years ago
At least make sure you do a Youtube search or something of the sort to hear the opening song. That is probably my favorite piece of music in the entire world.

Wow, I never anybody would agree with me on video game music being that great. Good to hear.
inflames255 4 years ago
Beautiful rendition; this is one of my absolute favorites from the game, and you do it justice. Also, I personally believe FFVIII was the best of the lot. Possibly because it was my first FF game, but no other FF game has quite the same feeling as VIII instills in me.

dude u seem to really like this game. i mean ive been a FF geek since i first laid finger on a nintendo controller. but i can honestly say this was by far my favorite 1, the main char Squall seemed to have the same type of attitude i have and i really connected with the game. me and my friend always quarrel wether 7 or 8 was better, but this is always the best! and is it me or is the 1 festival scene really fukkin cool.
3dDj 4 years ago
haha we share the same taste, although I can't judge on the best game, sadly (and most ironically) I never played 7, which is weird... because that is the game that was most popular back in the day, I was first weened on ff8, so of course my expectations were met. Perhaps it even got better when I got to ff9.

keep on doin your thing its inspiring and i can see that it has inspired many, one of them me...but i dont how/what to start..=[
XxpspchottoshotxX 4 years ago
Well... I guess to start off, do you own a piano or really any instrument of some sort?
CheonHoPark 4 years ago
well yeah piano sorta
more of a keyboard piano one good enough?
XxpspchottoshotxX 4 years ago
Keyboard is more then good enough, I preferably would rather play on that then, forced to play one some other instrument... I think the piano is much more vibrant by itself... then playing ff music on just a flute (one lined notes are harder to hold a status on its own I think).
CheonHoPark 4 years ago
yeah i prefer the piano anyways...i think its very relaxing, expecially when you and your kick ass brother plays it

Nice job on this song, only a few little mistakes. I loved learning this song, and I love playing it. I didn't think it was very difficult, but if you really want a chalenge, try Fighting from the FFVII piano collections. Now that's hard. Or if you want a little less of a challege, try Besaid Island from FFX piano colletions, that's a fun one to play.
simbot15 4 years ago
Haha yeah my bro pretty much "revised" his ff fighting. I think MOL is much harder compared to this piece. But I think probably the most difficult one currently will be OWA... but yes, take a look at my bro's attempt, if you haven't, Manhopark... If you haven't came across it yet.
CheonHoPark 4 years ago
I've got to say to was well done. Not an easy song. FF8 happens to be my favorite, I've played every Final Fantasy and had great respect for the music in 7,8,9,X(I think your "To Zanarkand" was nothing less than perfect!).

Question from a a person who wants to play piano soon:
is it hard to play different tunes/melodies (not sure if thats the right word to use) with both hands? its like ur hands are doing 2 different thing when pianist play the piano. its almost like multi-tasking is needed to play a piano from what i see
Scientist234 4 years ago
Yes is it is difficult, and the only advice I can give you is that it takes time, Surprisingly I learned this piece 4 years ago and I still make mistakes.
CheonHoPark 4 years ago
haha, i'm going to start learning soon... tap out "keys" with your right hand on a desk or whatever while independantly playing chord type keys with your left hand, it's so hard, looking forward to the challenge though, Guitar was hard at first :)
