Masashi Hamauzu - Wandering Flame

[LokiShmoki]

im gonna use this song in my first movie

[AnnatarYoung]

Man....I can't believe it was three years ago I took these pictures....I still remember this morning like it was last week. Shows how time flies, huh?

[ThaMasterOfDisaster2]

@AnnatarYoung shit man, i remember sitting and listening to this years ago. just stumbled across it again today, fucking fantastic video man.

[AnnatarYoung]

@ThaMasterOfDisaster2

Thanks man. If I ever manage to get some decent photos of something like the rain, I'll be sure to make another one! =)

To revive Japan from the earthquake, it keeps buying the made-in-Japan product.

Japan has done a large contribution to the world in the country where the technology and the culture are wonderful.

It is this time a turn that countries of the world help japan.

[TristanNinjaBoy121]

Nah, the town I live in near the south coast.

[TristanNinjaBoy121]

[AnnatarYoung]

@TristanNinjaBoy121 Close enough ;D

[TristanNinjaBoy121]

@AnnatarYoung okeyyy :)

[godkilleroswin]

this song bummed me out as a teenager.

[reuben244]

i would love to see this composed live! is there a video of this being composed?

[AnnatarYoung]

@reuben244 Afraid not, many of these sounds simply would be unachievable in a live performance.

[hivision87]

Dude! Beautiful mood. Man U made me wanna do a vid to this song too. Fuk! I remember that when I played the game and just defeated Seymour and it was also morning outside and then this music played. I was so freakn stunned by this nice coincident that I put my pad away and just stood there looking out the window and I have a good view sometimes. If only I smoked weed back then...

Anyways The tune from besaid island is also nice and moody-meludy. You should check it out if some.

[AnnatarYoung]

@hivision87 Hey there! Neogothic here! If you look in my vids list (the Neogothic one), you'll find I actually did a video for Bisaido Island too! =D

[AnnatarYoung]

On another note, OVER 7,000 VIEWS!!?

Fantastic! =D

[AnnatarYoung]

@Cancer8006 Vagrant Story was his absolute best. It's also one of my favourite video game soundtracks.

[AnnatarYoung]

@Cancer8006 NeoGothic here. I'm actually not the biggest fan of Masashi's work outside of Final Fantasy X. If you're looking for an underrated videogame musical genius, look up Hitoshi Sakimoto.

[jesustia86]

@Cancer8006 I think only Nomura-Uematsu-groupies underrate him. For me "Wandering Flame" is the best track of FFX. Really.

[AnnatarYoung]

@jesustia86 As I said to Cancer8006, I'm not actually THAT much of a fan of Hamauzu outside of Final Fantasy X. I thought his work on Final Fantasy XIII was tepid, bland and uninspiring. The battle theme was the only piece that really did anything for me.

[AnnatarYoung]

Hey, Neogothic here with my new main account (Which I'm using for all of my musical arrangement works). I just wanted to say thank you to all of you. I never thought so many people would appreciate the significance of this video, even two years past when I took these pictures and made this video (A memory which is so faint to me now). Thanks for understanding how this track made me feel and sharing your own emotions when hearing this music. =)

[jasminepotts]

I fall asleep every night and wake up every morning to it. It makes me think of a beach late at night. One day, I'm going to just sit on a beach, all night and just have this playing.

[Suwandi]

Thanks for uploading!

[Kim1987sc]

relaxing outside, ah good times.

[SkyTroNjiN]

OMFG i used to sleep to this music, i was just playing the game (FFX) and after I listened to it for a while I paused the game and went to bed xD

5/5 thanx for this

[ThaMasterOfDisaster2]

I used to do the same thing, This song would come on, it would be like 2 in the morning.... and your like all chilled out and shit

[ThaMasterOfDisaster2]

I like to go on long walks threw the forest with this song on my ipod.... It's calm... relaxing... Gives you a good feeling, Just looking around you... watching the snow fall, the tree's bear, animals... Fuck life is great.

[sephious159]

maybe its the feeling youd get if you saw a flame floating threw the air

to me it reminds me of a time i hadnt yet made any mistakes in life

this song makes me really sad for myself, this song is the only thing in the world that makes me feel sorrow for myself

[liquiddx]

@sephious159

for me it brings me to a place of peace where i can reflect on my life .. listen to it in a year again and you will feel something different

[sephious159]

@liquiddx

thanks, i'll do that

[MrRudiger]

There are few songs with the inherent emotional heft this songs has. And because it has no lyrics, it manages to speak to us all individually in a way no spoken lyrics could.

[nhazu]

@MrRudiger

That's one of the reasons why instrumentals are so special. The individual has to be able to feel the music to understand it. It's just you, your thoughts, & the composition. One's imagination fills the spot where lyrics could be

I love thought provoking music.

[ThaMasterOfDisaster2]

Im going to do a video like this, But take pictures in the winter. :D once its complete, you can be the first too see it

[Neogothic]

I'm looking forward to it my friend =)

[ThaMasterOfDisaster2]

It hasnt been nice like it was before... :( Usually its a nice but its all like fucked up and grey up here in canada.

[KenshinXSlayer]

@Neogothic AS am I :)

[MonstersNightmare]

For "Wandering Flame" Why do I kind of think of underwater?

[ThaMasterOfDisaster2]

Im Not sure. When I think and listen to this song, I think of looking out my window, during the winter. Seeing the orange pinkish blue sky, the crisp white snow falling. Gosh This Song is wonderful

[MonstersNightmare]

Yeah, I think of something like that too. And maybe even this song being played in Heaven..

[Neogothic]

Each to their own ;)

[ThaMasterOfDisaster2]

Monsters. I like the way you think. ^_^

[yashioman]

I listen to this almost every night. This track and the FF-X game have had a astonishing impact on my life.

[Neogothic]

As you can till, it has for me to. As depressing a thing as it is to say, I told my mum I want this played at my funeral when I die.

[yashioman]

That's not depressing. It's completely understandable. It's things like this game and the emotions that are transferred from them into us that are a rare thing nowadays. We need to cherish these priceless moments.

[ThaMasterOfDisaster2]

Dude, That would be the shit, This song playing at your funeral... Man... Great fucking idea. (T_T) Love the song. Love the Pictures. Keep up the good work

[MonstersNightmare]

I was thinking that too.. But there's other ones too that come pretty close in rank. I'm not sure what tone I want. Prisoners of fate for Chrono Cross seems to hit that tone for a funeral too.

[FINalFANTAsyKIDDO]

when listen to this song i think sunsets and sunrises also. twilight is the perfect time to play this song.

[xxriccampbellaa]

peaceful sound

[Terradreamer]

Check the info box.

I don't have the Moviemaker project of this anymore so there's no way of fixing my little error but the title of the video and the information in the info box are the best I can do.

[Hallation]

Hi Terradreamer,

I removed my comment because it was obnoxious. It's really a lovely video and I'm glad you like the song as much as I do. I just get irate because I think Hamuazu and Nakano are so talented, and that their work on the soundtrack dwarfs Uematsu's, yet somehow Uematsu is always listed as lead composer on the album. Anyway, your video made me go outside and watch the sunset last night, so thanks for that.

[Terradreamer]

No worries my friend and unfortunatly, when I downloaded the soundtrack, the names of the artists for each indervidual track aren't given so I have no way of knowing who's compositions are Nakano's, who's are Uematsu's and who are Hamauzu's. I've personally become a huge fan of Hamauzu's work. I wasn't going to even think about playing Final Fantasy XIII untill I heard he is doing the soundtrack.

[K00riKun]

such a beautiful song, in a nostalgic kind of way. Makes me think of lonely or sad sunsets... And i absolutely fell in love with the combination of the song and your awesome photos :)

[Aznos]

"Zanarkand. The end of Yuna's journey. The end of my story."

[ume1]

hey can you send me this too :)

[Terradreamer]

NeoGothic here, the vid of the music track?

[Terradreamer]

The vid or the music track, rather ;P

[LetsGetItCrunk]

i would like to download for Ipod

[Neogothic]

Hmmm...messege me your e-mail and I'll send you the vid =)

[ThaMasterOfDisaster2]

I love the Song. Could you sent it too me?

[Neogothic]

Can do next time I remember! Be sure to poke me for it!

For now, bed time!!

[choec]

Youve inspired me to have a summer project. I am going to wake up as many mornings as I can to see the sunrise

[kersedsaint]

@choec Weird... Cause thats the first thing I did. Walk alone at night and wait for the sunrise just thinking about life and everything I've been going through.

[dl2agon]

Mellow, relaxing, but in a sorrowful way.

[LetsGetItCrunk]

yes i agree with you.

[katsushironin]

Sounds like something from Shenmue

[ShaDHP23]

This music is so peaceful. I could just drift into a peaceful sleep forever. I can't wait to play this game again!

[KenshinXSlayer]

Where are you from? These pictures are great!

[mastersupersuper]

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

[Neogothic]

Average Youtube commenter #152, is that you?

[EnemyoftheDevil]

LOL!

[dergru]

i don't think he meant that in a neg way....this really does put you on the verge of sleep.

[Neogothic]

It is meant to be relaxing...but it's commonplace on Youtube for people to insult and offend..

[Tiifa90]

I just love this song and your pictures fits it soo good :))

[k777t]

Check out my version :)

Also, a small correction : It's Masashi Hamauzu, not Nobuo Uematsu :) Great pics!

[ElysiaF1]

It's very pretty! So tranquil and relaxing :)

[Neogothic]

Oh and those of you watching who cba to watch it all, 1:41 onwards are the best ones, they get better as they go along.

[bladeXinXyourXheart]

pretty music

pretty pictures...

what more could u want? ^-^

[Neogothic]

Thankees ^-^
