When this song was playing during the ending I felt like crying. This should be Serah's theme song, the lyrics completely fit her. I think Square Enix is moving into good times by adding English singers. I love the japanese songs they usually use but it can't compare to actually understanding what they are saying. I love "My Hands" and "New World. This songs are epic
I love this video, and love this song, but I just gotta say, the video is actually flipped, cause Serah's ponytail was supposed to be on the other side of her head, lightning uses her right hand for her blade instead of the left, and Noel has his swords backwards in this video.
ok so I'm on chapter 2 of XIII-2 on PS3 and I must admit, I am VERY impressed so far, I absolutely love this game so far. MUCH better than XIII and I loved that as well
Wasn't Serah's ponytail on the left side of her head? Anyways, I'm going to pick up this game soon. Just reallyyy disappointed that Lightning won't have a larger role. She's way too badass to play a supporting role. EVER.
i must of played FF13 about 50 times! It's epic! Got this masterpiece on pre-order there will NEVER be a game that made me as emotional as FFXIII (Apart form FFXIII-2)
Pros: It's a typical FF ballad, it was written in Japanese, actually translated and localized for westerners (Instead of pulling some random song off an album that has nothing to do with the story)
Erm...I don't know. This song doesn't feel like a FF theme. I like Charice, I admire her. But no, just no. Square Enix should have gone with something more upbeat.
@KeiHime013 You obviously haven't heard 1000 no Kotoba by Koda Kumi or the English version, 1000 Words by Sweetbox. FFX2 used ballad theme songs. Yuna's theme song, Morning Glow, was also a ballad.
@jeloseth how could you unlike someone you know nothing about? I suggest you watch her vids-simply search for Charice and be amazed at the thousands of videos. If you love this song, I'm sure you will like her other songs as well. BTW, she was dubbed, "The Most Talented Girl" by Oprah. Do you know who Oprah is?
@mel5932 I am not saying I do not like -her-. I simply meant I do not like her style of music, which is something I can accurately say. As I stated: I do not like her style of music, but that PARTICULAR song goes well with these Final Fantasy trailers, so it causes me to enjoy the music. And yes, I know who Oprah is. Don't be ignorant.
@mel5932 To be more specific, I am a fan of heavy metal and, very rarely, progressive rock. Coheed and Cambria, for instance. If you wish to know the music I enjoy, try Dir En Grey
@mel5932 And as one last statement: I do not enjoy music just because some name says they are good. If I did that, I would enjoy bands such as Blood on the Dance Floor and 'artists' such as Lady Gaga and Kei$ha, two women who rely more on effects than their own talent.
@TwinlightEqua good to know. thanks, just lil surprised not to see him with Serah is all thought he'd be main character no.2 instead of this Noel guy I heard aboutXD {february for us, quite close I thought this wasnt being released till autumn next year lol}
@AtoliHydra He's in the game, he just makes a few cameo apperances (and he and Serah didn't marry apparently, they lived together for 2 years but.... well... nothing more happened)
I'm sorry this song just isn't a good follow up to Leona Lewis' "My Hands". Don't get me wrong Charice sounds ok but this song is no where near as powerful as My Hands. Hopefully this let down in this poor music selection is not a prelude to how this highly anticipated game will be.
This song sounds like a disney song, Leona Lewis on final fantasy XIII was much better with My Hands, Charice is a very good singers but her records are not good.
Can someone tell me who charice is? Heard she was something to do with glee or something.. amazing song and voice tho seems to go well with what we know of the story too, had it stuck in my head all day =)
@AdventStrife She went international at the age 15 of 2007 because of yt. She is 19 now. Born and raised from the Philippines. At the age of 7 she entered 100+ amateur singing contests to help her poor family. She is the first Asian in history to land on the top 10 of the BB 200 Chart, top 8. She guested on Glee but she was already famous before that show. "New World" will be in her 2nd album Infinity Japan Edition out Oct 5th. Her voice has been recognized by the greats. Multi-talented singer.
@AdventStrife you gotta see her live performances to know her. Listen - watch?v=JvXaOCTC6wU - You Only Have To Wait - watch?v=JuT1V6NV3DA - Pyramid - watch?v=BhT2HhEllpw - To Love You More - watch?v=tCyY4wHIUuI - with the legendary music producer; her mentor and family now.

Wait anyone know where i can get an MP3 for this? Im going to buy the OST when it comes out but for now i dont want to rely on youtube to listen to this
I like how they actually did an English version of the Japanese theme too, unlike how they add a totally new song to the US version. But My Hands is a really good theme though.

Not all FF series are going to have the same genre of music.
"It doesn't feel like Final Fantasy" What are you people talking about?
Vocal themes have been here ever since FF8. They all have some sort of connection to the game's story.
Most were sung by Pop singers and such.
