TotA - Meaning of Birth

[MrWormoid]

@footile I know this is like 5 years late, but your epic. I prefer this even over the original, and I damn love the original. Is it possible if you could tell me how to play it? It would probably take me quite a long time, as I've only been playing the Piano for a year, but I could try and simplify and play smaller bits of it. If you could help me out then thanks, I'd just love to play at least some of this in front of my class to show them what a great game Tales of The Abyss is! :-)

[dragonfury4]

Ha! nice your the best piano player i heard so far. either that or my ears are just working rightxD

[MrStupidmonkeyboy]

hey footile, is there any chance of you posting a HOW TO PLAY for this?

[MrMeshida]

harpsichord! lol. this is great.

[LGameTales]

Anybody know the left hand part that this guy pounds during 0:45?

[FonistJade234]

Do you have the music sheet for this song I've been all over the internet looking for it!?

[Mcdom34]

May you please post tabs?

[kh557]

@MrStupidmonkeyboy Thats like Raven's back story in ToV

[mb00088877]

nice! :)

[spyropurple]

for some reason asch reminds me of axel! 0.o

[KHdude3120]

@spyropurple If you mean by apperance, I've got no complaints, however, if you are implying they are likewise by personality, I would have a few choice words for you.

[MrStupidmonkeyboy]

they ought to make a game where luke becomes the bad guy after the death of Tear and Natalia and then make this the theme. someone has to put luke out of his misery. and luke has to become slightly like master van. this theme and that story line with him fighting Yuri or some other kid that reminds him of how he was when he was 17 and 18 would be freakin awesome

[sacredMONKEYZ]

@MrStupidmonkeyboy Nooooooo! you can't make the awesome characters die!!!

[MrStupidmonkeyboy]

@sacredMONKEYZ

sry but that's the only way 2 give this theme any more power. killing luke after he's gone down the path of evil cuz natalia and tear were killed in a war. and guy becomes his enemy cuz he had a hand in it. Jade could've died in war sometimes in between the games too. i hate the thought of killing luke. i won't even get ash's loves his mother title. but still... i c no other option.

[sacredMONKEYZ]

@MrStupidmonkeyboy well ya never know... ya never know.... either they make one or they dont. no big deal, but if there's a new one, it better be damn good lol

[DartUchiha]

@sacredMONKEYZ Why not? Square did it to Zack.

[Coolio8823]

@MrStupidmonkeyboy You mean ToS2? XD jk jk

[Nifrayu]

badass! thanks im gonna use it in a game I'm making.

[xmageofmusicalmanax]

memories...

[herio907]

You did a great job. I love it! ^^

Does anyone have sheet music for flute or violin for this song?

[KingdomheartsRokz]

I don't know, but I'm in the EXACT same state as you are! I want it for flute so badly. It's a beautiful song. :]

[tsuki1chan]

this is very strong! and the result is perfect

[lLedahl]

Really well played! Anyone has the sheet for this?

[s3x0fd34Th]

this is way to chalemz

[xxiPopsiclexx]

the harpsichord voice on here makes the way you play sound even better. :33

[Mandred2008]

Sounds a bit like a harpsichord.

[epiclight858]

how long did it take you to learn this song??

[sagacious03]

I know I sound like a generic praiser, but really, you're very talented.

[lloyd1234567890]

Great!!! song

[VanillaxTact]

O.O wow that awesome ^^

[KizukuKanshi]

I love how the pressing of the keys made sort of a mini-percussion sound throughout the song. I agree, this is better than the real song.

[DrHoedown]

amazing....

[lolcompany4u]

this is better than the original song

[Deathblade377]

I have never played a piano before. I want to be a good piano player like you =D

[stormfur2]

Win.

[WarQueen94]

o.o i thot this song is called "karma"

[HazeInTheRoad]

its sort of a remix of karma

[ImDarkie]

i woulda thought of it the other way around o_o being that meaning of birth is sorta the orcistrated ver of karma

[Keraroo]

@HazeInTheRoad Well yeah. Meaning of Birth, Mirrors, in between 1 and 0, and Promise are all key words that appear in the main theme Karma. In other words they each are a different version of Karma with the basic rhythm to help express what was going on in the game.

[s3x0fd34Th]

can you give me the sheet music? or the music notes... anything from you to learn this song :'(

[sipan1234]

l give you that meaning of birth sheet music ok

[Prettypretty10]

great job! that was amazing!!!

[JALSEMAR12]

Wow, you're good!! =)

[sheenairving640]

Ew Gross You have problems - .-;

[lionheart1127]

LMFAO

[kalma0702]

すげーｗｗｗ

めっちゃｗいいとおもう

耳コピでしょうか

[sounoff]

wow great job

[jamonero]

love it! awesome job x3

[shirayuki75]

is it just me, or do these three songs sound alike: karma mirrors MoB

[shinobimatt]

becuase its just remixes of karma which is the games main theme, may RPG's do it so its nice to see the different remixes

[animemaniac27894567]

Could someone give me sheet music? Or the music notes?

[123amanai]

上手いですね

[SymphoniaxoxMylie]

Where did you got the sheet for this song ^_^

I love it ^_^

Great jod !!

[SuzumaTakuya]

haha ah man this is pretty amazing.

idky but the intrument combos you chose on the keyboard makes it sound really folk-tune--ish...

[epiclight858]

anyone know where I can download this music??

[acsdude1]

Can I ask if there is any sheets that I may see? I'm trying to learn it right now from your video playing....but your hands are too ninja to read them xD sooo if anyone has sheet please reply to me and send me link or something to download or see it please! Would really appreciate it! :D

[JediStrifeVII]

This is a better version than the game version!

[darkcronicle11]

aww... I love this one! :3

[subfuzion]

no its not karma u idoit

[VaatiOfDarkness]

Well, Meaning of Birth is basically a slower version of Karma that plays during the final battle between Asch and Luke.

[ImDarkie]

with no guitar solo :D

[VaatiOfDarkness]

True...

Also, the song that plays when Luke cuts is hair has the melody of Karma...as does the scene when *ahem* dies. (don't want to spoil)

[tubbymura98]

isnt this karma? lol

[deltarayXZ20]

yes it is. its a slightly altered version though. just as good

[posterc123]

a masterpiece i say

[xXBlackxXxRoseXx]

I really want the sheets for this T.T I searched everywhere D:

[idontbleed4u]

hey id really like sheet music and so would lots of other people. If you could it'd be really cool of you

[Azulmine]

I think songs like these shouldn't be put into sheet music

If they were, all the noobs (like myself) would go and download it, and magnificence like this wouldn't be as special

[lalalaGIR]

It probably would still be special. Most people, there's no way they could get this right.

[KlKURl]

=D I love this song! Great cover. And you have pretty pianist fingers. <3

[dragdrag]

Awesome...

Magnificent..

Amazing..

[1bloodkiller1]

you r beast

[TricksterFan132]

TOS ROCKS THE HOUSE MAN I BEAT IT 8-10 times with my bro it rocks !

[Lixenm]

This version of MOB is just...PURE IMBA. -,-

12/10

[Animexduo]

both awsome games but as far as battling goes, tales of the abyss totaly pwns tales of symphonia.

[Necrossader]

Simply beautiful...it almost made me cry T_T

[btolko]

Man youre really good

[ADHDboy9]

thanks alot for recording! i really apprecite this!

[The9thelement]

Things like this make me want to learn to play the piano XD

[MiaBathory]

XD same here!

[sisiana]

anybody know where i can get the piano sheet

[XSymphoniaAbyssX]

AMAZING! TotA forever! (500000/5)

[liltobe9]

I heard that tales of symphonia was good, but that tales of the abyss is better, thinking about buying symphonia, do you think tales of symphonia was good?

[willi211191]

yeah it was good, but i like Tales of the Abyss better

[MermaidPrincessSaku]

i second that ^^ i like Tales of the Abyss better =D but Symphonia is good too~

[lillixygirl]

Hmm, I liked Symphonia better (story + character wise) but Abyss beats Symphonia out when it comes to the music and battle system ^^'

[lalalaGIR]

Pssh. Jade pwns any character in Symphonia, plus, Presea and Regal could practically have their own game, and they really didn't fit into the main plot. I think the story was a bit shaky, but they had more practice by Abyss, so it was easier to make things fit together better.

[ImDarkie]

symphonia was better as far as story but abyss ownz with music and battle play due to more attacks and skills and stuff :D

i personaly liked symphonia better cuz im a nerd

[HikaruIrving]

I loved Tales of the Abyss because its characters and stories challenged the way I think, challenged my beliefs and values. It made me think.

[akatsukiyondaime2]

They're both good. Each has it's own thing. But i think Tales of the abyss is more serious and the characters in symphonia look like lil kids.

[CallMeKazu]

I loved symphonia, played it 3 times through, wouldnt hurt to try right? I mean with a price of $20 brand new, the price cant be beat!

[ihave2cows]

what lillixygirl said.

the tales of symphonia storyline is GREAT u should definately think about getting it.

(all tales have the same battle engine, not system but engine)

also u should think about getting the sequal if u like that, the sequal's gameplay is better, but not as good storyline and alot of the former's cast stuff has been taken out

[halfangelfreak]

TO ihave2cows, you have it backwords, they have the same battle system, not engine.

[CallMeKazu]

Truly remarkable game, the first one is by far better then the second one sadly... I have both of them... Im thinking of picking up the first one again. That would be the 4th time playing through if I do lol.

[Electricguitarmast3r]

2nd one? There is only 1 tales of the abyss.

[CallMeKazu]

Oh, I know that, that comment was a response to someone about Tales Of Symphonia

[Cloud184]

SHEET MUSIC!!! ARGHRRGHH! AHH! aarRR! ahh! *foams*...

[NsDarkShadowSerpent]

Just when I thought I couldn't possibly adore this song anymore...

Nice work.

[Shuryoukun]

I wish you played this when i fought Asch

[Lonesomeazn]

this song is my favorite from Tales of the Abyss! I just wish there was a tutorial some where to learn this. Great job by the way.

[SeriouslyPissedOff]

Brilliant instrumental.

[LaMarionette33]

owh my god!!!!!!! GREAT!!!SUPER!!!!!!!!

[ev0chewy]

AWESOME!!!! STARS:99999999999

[BladeNecromancer]

This was just amazing, you did a superb job. Keep up the good work.

[jkw0789]

i love this version! record it and send me an mp3!!!

[SeriouslyPissedOff]

I have the mp3 >;] message me.

[jkw0789]

this mp3? or the original? either/or would rock

[SeriouslyPissedOff]

Actually, both.

[SheenaZelosNaruto]

AWESOME!!!

[XAngelFeathersX]

awesome!!

[NFITC1]

I loved this battle. It seemed to be the entire point of the game in my mind. Everything was perfectly built up for this fight. I can't get enough of this song!

[EXKenshin]

Tear: Luke... I love you

[SeilinthePirateQueen]

Wow, this is a very good remix of this song. Even though, I haven't gotten that far yet in Tales of the Abyss, I'm already excited for fighting Asch now since I'm close to the end. I <3 this song.

[shadowkillerdragon]

Gosh the ending to this game was soooo awesome

Tear and Luke !!!!

xDDD yay!

[LoveYouMU]

omg i love this song... and for playing this... I LOVE YOU!

[daiya189]

hey man i just noticed it by now didn't the second 1/4 of the song will change and it will have 16 notes already???

[daethman190]

Great job footile!!!!

[Wolz]

Can't you make an mp3 file or something? i would sure love to listen to this on repeat :P or even if you aprove, use it a AMV or something

[Bubblebum123456]

Love it.

Plus, awesome quality. : D

[Ponchanxxx]

you rock^^

[Asgirl3]

Is this song the same as Karma by bump of chicken or does it just sound the same?

[BlackwingDragon]

Totally not the same. The original version, Karma, is used as an opening for Tales of the Abyss. Meaning of Birth, what is played here, is another version, used in a critical fight between 2 major characters.

[daiya189]

soundtracks of tales of the abyss came from one song and it's Karma just like Promise it's from the its from that chorus and intro And Mirrors Too... so it's all the same but different tempo and arrangement..

[BlackwingDragon]

And diffirent name, obviously. If they wanted to be cheap and do the same thing, they'd call it the same, and add variation or chorus or something. Kthx.

[nigatsu198]

i thought this is the english of karma??

[BlackwingDragon]

Well f*ck me in the ass and call me Stacy, dude! YOU'RE GOOD! O_o. Sh*t, can I spread your link around? I think you'd deserve the publicity.

[tomatoe0000]

I wish my keyboard had as much reverb as yours :( Or maybe you are just using the pedal and I can't see it.

[daiya189]

Wow mand does sound real good !!!! what is voice do you used in playing this for me is i used used R1 125 string guitar and for R2 is Overdriven Guitar wdou you have any advise to give?? and you play that way good totaly 5 Star!!!

[DhoEE]

AMAZING!!! I can't stop listening to this. You're so gooood.

[NeoAndyDS]

Awesome.

Sorry if that sounds cold, I just have no more words >>...

[kourelop]

i love how people say that video game music isn't real music, until hear something like this

[Toadi0]

Thought I'd never comment on Youtube, but here I am. To the point: captivating piece of music in an absolutely stunning arrangement. High praises.

[xXBlackxXxRoseXx]

LIKE OHH EHM GEE YOU ARE AMAZING >:O

[supershadow16]

Asch...

my favorite caracter...

I always do the glitch to have him...

[snipa5800]

[tabacarlo18]

[ragnarokhead19000]
