[chocobosROK]

A wise old man once told me that I would know good music that came from the heart of the person that wrote it.. I asked "why is that, grandpa?" He told me that I would know it because the beauty of the music would bring a tear to my eye.. thank you @waltzforluma for this song.. and thank you to @lara6683 for connecting me withe Aivi Tran.. \m/0.0\m/ you both rock

[skylinefourfifteen]

even though it's been ages since this was posted i always seem to come back to this song whenever it's late at night and i'm feeling a little down. whenever i hear it i envision a girl sitting in her kitchen cradling a mug of tea, looking out the skylight at the stars and reminiscing on what could have been.

[waltzforluma]

@skylinefourfifteen That's a very beautiful image... and not too far off from how the girl who wrote the song was feeling :)

[MusicalWolfe]

Awesome! What instrument did you use to create the background "atmospheric" effect?

[draconiamethods]

I suggest this for animal crossing or mine craft for a night song

[FlorianBooo]

This would be so perfekt for a night-animalcrossing soundtrack :D i love it!

[Kowsky2805]

Once an angel spoke to me and told me about how my dad is doing in heaven... I told him to shut the fuck up cause I was hearing this c:

[timodude1985]

Aivi Tran the greatest in all the land

[zachpach101]

[soniplushie]

for some reason i think this song should be added as a song in minecraft!

[SuperAlxndr]

Beautiful.....

Ver nicely done!!!! Great Fan of Yours!!!

[nuniruro1515]

[PianoSalmon]

Yes - Garageband can make you just sit on the computer for hours :D But it's a good thing :)

[Magoblancopower]

this is a very good music for relax :3

[Kalmyel]

Love the outro. 

[strikelord1]

Amazing. 

[Verdegrand]

i like the sound of this, very atmospheric. must be awesome to have full control over the software so that you can just improvise this with it.

[Infernape250]

do you mind if I use this song in a video

[jesserobles]

Sexy music ;D

[pduperron]

Your music is warming my heart delicatly.

[UltraaNova]

It doesn't feel sad at all...for me at least.

[MsSnym]

Really fitting title, and well composed. (:

[xianning]

ahah i had my laptop outside relaxing in the night and I was listening to this ahahah while staring at the stars XD really gives off a night time feel ahah

[all2easygoing]

Sounds like something off a Kirby game. Very melodic.

[gigacrisis]

Its amazing how good sadness sound

[Kerv01]

O:

[strobelights9]

otatop

[thedragoonknight]

Aside from me loving this, it reminds me of an ICO track.

[thedragoonknight]

<3 this

[Koroigetsuga87]

stunning

[Willasfantasyland]

Do you make the sound file on a computer(i.e. with Finale) or do you record the instruments themselves? I'm asking because I'm somewhat of a composer(just on piano, you're much better than me) and wanted to do some stuff with multiple instruments.

[rickyzpta96]

potato

[bodman1]

@rickyzpta96 salad?

[PotatoVendor]

@rickyzpta96 yes?

[polarwind1]

Very cool, I like it!

[nevermakesense]

Kinda reminds me of Etrian Odyssey.

[daminoush]

i know this is a lot of work but this is so better when we can see you play!!!

[skylinefourfifteen]

i really like when the drums kick in. hope you feel better! your music is amazing.

for the longest time i read your name as "ayvee" in my head, but the other day i realized it's more likely pronounced "ivy" lol. which is it?

[mercurycrystal86]

@skylinefourfifteen Her name is pronounced the same way as "Ivy".

[waltzforluma]

@mercurycrystal86 Hello there <3

This is true!

[skylinefourfifteen]

@mercurycrystal86 yeah that makes sense lol. what a cool way to spell it though. aivi makes me think of birds and the sky... ivy makes me think of creepy vines or poison ivy =P

also i was totally the first one to thumbs up the potato post.

[waltzforluma]

@skylinefourfifteen It means "small and beloved" in the language it originates from :)

Also I don't understand the potato post, haha

[skylinefourfifteen]

@waltzforluma there is no understanding. there is only potato.

cool name though. i got named after a lame river =/

[dasenase]

If my music ever goes anywhere, or even if it doesn't, would you want to collaborate in some way? I'm a guitarist/drummer. Your original compositions are great, along with your covers.

[SabreMage]

Coolio, yo! A bit brief, but rather rad! 8)

[technojunkie123]

This so should have been in Super Mario Galaxy :)

[ravuthpum]

sooo perttttttttttyy

[PurityGuru]

Such beautiful, ethereal music! feels like I'm in some sorta wonderland. Great job!

[jorg1piano]

Verry cool, is the drums just drums on your computer or is it a recording ?

[marzgirl99]

yaaay another original!!!! glad you're uploading videos more often!

[superjorrja]

also reminds me of a dripping cavern

[LumpyHippo]

Every time I see that font I stop what I'm doing and listen because I know it's a Aivi Tran original.

[JubJubtheWonderHippo]

@LumpyHippo Does it really matter whether it's an original or not? Every time I see a new video under my subscriptions, I close everything else that makes noise and listen, because it's pretty much guaranteed to be pretty sounding. :D

[LumpyHippo]

@JubJubtheWonderHippo

Don't get me wrong I love all of Aivi's work but to know that what I'm about to here I never heard before is exciting. On a sidenote we are both Hippos

[JubJubtheWonderHippo]

@LumpyHippo Indeed. That's why I had to find SOME reason to comment. XD

[waltzforluma]

@LumpyHippo Boy, this made me smile/laugh hard. I noticed that you were both hippos, too :]

[youidiotkid]

So glad you posted this. A personal favorite.

[pimpsta181]

interesting. i was trying to think whose channel this was... im so used to your piano playing.......wait nvm theres the piano i hear it now. n_n

[felipemp93]

That's cool :3

[weeoo86]

Very ethereal! sounds like something from Secret Of Mana:)

[monkeygluver]

One thing I don't like about this.....it's too short ;D

Naw thats ok, I'll just have to keep hitting the replay button

Beautiful as always!

[TigerNightmare]

Awesome. Now I wanna go to sleep.

[8BitChoiBoy]

Wait a sec...you composed this in 2010? O.o Why upload it NOW? Did you have an epiphany? XD

[SabrinaValenzuela]

Hehe :) this is really magical to listen to, I love it! <3

[Pegasusation]

It's great how you can turn every song or composition into magic.

[9AlexB6]

This should be a in a videogame!! Could you play Dire Dire Docks from Super Mario 64? I love that song so much :D

[vpliaadnoo]

Beautifull!

[Pegasusation]

Awesome! <3

[MaverickJimBob]

Really amazing.
