Tales of Symphonia: Negai (English)

[SerialSaiyan]

Pretty. <3

[AShinyMewtwo]

You have a pretty voice. I'ts a nice fandub. HOW DID YOU DO TEH ECHO THING XD

[AlaiaSkyhawk]

@AShinyMewtwo If you mean the multiple parts, the harmonies etc, I recorded them one at a time and edited them together into the song.

[AShinyMewtwo]

@AlaiaSkyhawk

Oh thanks. And yes that's what i meant. :D

[elitecompositionx]

Ooooh~ O:

Someone else did a Negai english dub! haha

Good job!

[vitrical1]

wow!!! great harmony!!! you guys are awsome!!!

[vitrical1]

Wow!!! great harmony!!! you guys are awsome!!!

[dazzles22]

The night opens up the sky

to this world where we can fly

in this world where you can always smile beside me

In this world what can I do

Not to lose everything

I wish that I can always protect you

those would be the most suitable.

the one i think which was very suitable. Not that others don,t just that these part of the lyrics surpassed others..

[Neko223]

you sound kinda nervous...i mean, i like the wavering sound, but it just makes it a little bit of a nervous song when you do it. i feel nervous listening to you sing xD ((not in a bad way; like i said, it just sounds like you're nervous, is all)) i like it besides, that ^__^

[luckyhmongkey]

This is great! Nice harmony! I love it!

[peachandhoney]

Absolutely beautiful. I love your voice, and this is such a beautiful song...

[Cortsy]

Great job! I actually started tearing up. ;-;

It's such a beautiful song with powerful lyrics, and what you did really made it strong. <3

[IncredibleNarutoFan]

It would sound much better if you had your own audio studio xD Because your voice is really nice 5/5

[WolfsRainChan]

You truly have a wonderful voice^^ I love this version of the song also :)

[Adriannu255]

I LOVE your voice! Just like I love this song. I actually used this translation for one of my fanfics. Wonderful!

[AlaiaSkyhawk]

Cool, glad you liked it :)

[LadyColetteTheChosen]

You have such a beautiful voice. ^^ You kept time pretty well too. A lot of people have trouble with that. Very nice. ^^

[AlaiaSkyhawk]

I play euphonium in a brass band, so keeping time with music has become habit. XD

Thx for the comment

[LadyColetteTheChosen]

I was a clarinet in beginers band last year, but I had to quit, because there was no room for it on my schedual. I'm also in a choir that's pretty much all about sight-reading, but to be honest, I'm probably the worst in the class, even if I had to try-out to get in. My sight reading and timing skill are amature. XD Practice will help in time.

[clistalvirus]

I love your voice...

Btw, I've noticed that the vids you make have a "fluffy" sound like you mentioned on your other one. Try to not sing directly into the microphone, rather, try putting it at the side of you instead. It might improve quality

^sorry for the long post

[AlaiaSkyhawk]

My old mic was sound damping and had to be crazily close to my mouth to get any decent volume. I have a better, stereo mic now actually build into my laptop. I just have to make sure I record when there's no one else in the house making noise XD

thx fr the comment

[BluewolfR]

AWESOME!!!!! X3 I LOVED IT SO MUCH!!! 5/5!! X3 INSTANT FAVE!!! X3 , may i please have a copy of this??? i love how you made this!!! X3

[AlaiaSkyhawk]

There are loads of websites that will strip the audio off youtube vids so you can save them to your computer. Just google "Video to mp3" and you'll get a whole list of them. If you get one that wants you to fill out a survey just back up and try another. There's a couple that don't make you do that.

[BluewolfR]

i see well thnx!!! x3

[AlaiaSkyhawk]

Glad to help :D

[osvickzero]

Awesome!!! Nice work i really liked, u have such a beutiful voice!!

Keep it up!

[naruto6414]

holy crap i just read u made this thats amazing u got a gr8 voice :)

[AlaiaSkyhawk]

I 'lol'-ed at the 1st comment. If I've fooled someone into thinking it's professionally done then I know I've done a good job XD

[naruto6414]

nice wicheva company made this did a gd dub over

[MikaNaaman94]

This is so beautiful, your voice is very pretty ^^ Do you have an Mp3 of this song?

[AlaiaSkyhawk]

There are quite a few vid-to-mp3 sites about. If you'd like to have the audio of this for an ipod or something, I have nothing against you using one of them.

Happy listening :)

[MikaNaaman94]

Okie Dokies, thankie ^^ Um.. Would you mind telling me an mp3 site because I don't know any.

[ax2013]

Wow...this is just as good as the original. If I didn't know it was a fandub, I'd think it was an official English version.

[AlaiaSkyhawk]

Hehehe, thanks. I actually have a better audio program now, and a better mic, but all in all I don't think I'd ever re-record this since it's probably the best of my Pre-Krystal fandubs. I used to use Audacity, but it has zero capacity for adding authentic reverb or for fine tuning backing tracks for keeping vocals easy to hear. A couple of my older fandubs have places where I'm hard to hear.

Anyways, thanks for the comment :)

[Hokaru11792]

Awesome! You did a super-nice job! :D

[shiakitsune]

This is really good ^^ Great harmonizing, definitely one of the best fandubs I've heard ^^

[icefirerose]

amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!yay!

[gothikshena]

awesome *_* 5 stars!

[tosdotnw]

awsome 5 stars and faverated :)

[XxXxXHikariXxXxX]

There is only one thing I really hate about this fandub...

There isn't a download link...

[Kasoji]

Yes, I agree!! I REALLY wish I could put this on my iPod... TT-TT...

[XxXxXHikariXxXxX]

Hehe I got it like right after I posted that XD! I used a site called vidtomp3.

[Kasoji]

OMG that's amazing!!! Thanks so much for letting me know!! :D

[darkyouth2005]

wow beautiful this is a really good fan dub

[krashkaboom]

Beautifulll!!! <333

[IceRosePhoenix]

I normally don't like fan-dubs but you did an amazing job on this song. I love the harmony.

[boukenreddo07]

You sound amazing!!! Great job!!

[KaneJefferzWest]

Wow the harmonizing is amazing. You're really good at singing too. The only thing is that there are some puffs here and there, but other than that it's perfect.

[darkangel24700]

Beautiful... your voice is so pretty! -favourites this- Great job!

[tosdotnw]

awsome u must have put alot of time in to this.

[midnafreak]

wonderful ^^ i hope to hear more from you

maybe starry heavens?

[reflectionpixie]

Nice dub!

And as for the picture? Drawn by kurot (you can look her up on dA).

[AngelDrive9]

This goes to my favorites.

[nanakyzeto]

that beautiful!

[Xyrsk]

*claps* Well done!

[IAmAnAnimeGirl]

OMG! If thats you singing your sooooo awesome!!!

[AlaiaSkyhawk]

Yup, it's me.... after several recordings XD

I'm glad you like it ^_^

[MeowMixSong12]

I don't know if i've ever commented one of your vids so I might as well start now neh? I never bothered listening to this before and now I shall bash my head on the desk and call myself an idiot. A wonderful job as always!

[AlaiaSkyhawk]

*Puts cushion between head and desk*

I've had a few times I've felt like giving myself a self inflicted concussion for similar reasons. A friend of mine always replies with the above ^_^

Thx for the comment :)

[Internetshadow0000]

You have an amazing voice and this is simply an incredible job both in the translation and the singing itslf. This song brought me to tars it was so beautiful. It got the spirit of what I imagined the original was about. 5/5

[AlaiaSkyhawk]

Thx :)

I really need to take a look at like list of possible English Fandub projects again. It's been a while now since I've done one so perhaps I'll record another one soon.

Thanks for the comment ^_^

[kalakauai]

Is this for real? What about the opening "Almateria?" Is that real?

[AlaiaSkyhawk]

I've never seen a english fandub of Almateria (namely because everyone says the original is gibberish and can't be translated), but this fandub is definitely me :)

But if by 'real' u mean 'official translation', then no this isn't. This is the literal translation tweeked by me to make it singable and make sense.

thx for the comment :D

[Soulright]

Very few fandubs turn out good, but this is simply amazing and gave me chills. Beautifully sung and done.

[AlaiaSkyhawk]

Thx :) I'm glad you like it

[Icysbrani]

Music was louder then your voice, I can't hear your amazing voice clearly T_T

also 5/5 and subscribed XD

[AlaiaSkyhawk]

I had to balance my voice to the music for the parts where I had three vocal tracks going. This unfortunately meant that in the parts where one track is solo, it was a little quiet.

Thanks for the comment and subscribing ^_^

[AnMeiChan]

This is really good! I was hoping someone would do a fandub of this and I think you nailed it! do you think you could do "Uchi e Kaerou" or "Omoi no Yukue" next?

[AlaiaSkyhawk]

I'm not sure I could pull either of those off, though I'll give them a try at some point. Right now my next planned english fandub is of Starry Heavens. I've just been working on my fanfic for a while before I record it.

[princessarisu]

....O__O *stunned into silence* *starts clapping and cheering like CRAZY* I. AM. DEEPLY IMPRESSED!! That's how you sound like?! Your voice is so lovely!!!! Please teach me how to harmonize and put the music and words loud enough...XD you're an EXPERT!!! I SWEAR!! When I saw that you did the Japanese Harmony...i swear, i screamed, "WHAT?!?!"

Girl, you are TALENTED. Don't ever let it go! ;) Awesome Alaia, keep it up!!

-Arisu Tsuranu

[AlaiaSkyhawk]

I wouldn't call myself an expert lol. When it comes to audio editing I'm a self taught noobie. I use a free program called Audacity, you can download if off the web. It's basic, but it lets you clean tracks up a bit once you've figured out a few tricks for how. It lets you balance the tracks as well, by doing nothing more than moving a slider of the start of the track XD

Thanks for the comment

[CrazyboutToS]

OMG! This is totally awesome! Are you the same Alaia Skyhawk that wrote the resoration series?! You're a great singer! Great translation, too! 5 stars! *adds to favorites*

I love this song so much! Thanks for the fandub! It's beautiful! I wish i could it on my ipod! (well, when i get a new one, anyway.) I'd probably watch it over and over again! This is so awesome!

Excellent! Spectacular! I can't think of enough words to describe it! Good job!

[Kasoji]

O.O I'm in shock. That was really, really good. *clicks favorite, then clicks replay* XD

[AlaiaSkyhawk]

Thanks for the comment on here and on my other vid. I'm glad you like them :)

[AlaiaSkyhawk]

I had 'strongly', the actual translation, in originally, but 'always' fit the context of the previous line better. As for other shaky places in the lyrics, 1st line of the second verse is the main one, but I wanted to stay as true to the translation as possible, and that was the closest singable edit to the original.

Thanks for the comment ^_^
