Final Fantasy IX - LOSS OF ME (piano collections)

[IamLawler]

It's like I'm hearing it straight from the piano soundtrack.

[amarrinerCadpoint]

wonderfull my favorite song of all the final fantasys and played beautifully thank you

[Pandasinmyass]

everything from this game just sounds so nostalgic now o.o

[MegaAnimefreak1998]

just luv it....makes me sad though T~T

[Wolfdream83]

I have this song and haven't been able to find the piano music for it! Loss of me is my happy song....though ironically it makes me kind of sad at the same time. :)

[treter32]

Why would anyone even dislike this?

[Rootwoot101]

did u use a foot petal for this?

[Newguy055]

@Rootwoot101 Yes of course he did

[GhillieBR]

Open a new windown in youtube, type RainyMood and put to play together!

[treter32]

@GhillieBR lol i learned about that site when someone told me to do it on dragonball z

[243224322432]

I've never played this FF game before, but its music is very touching.

[TheViscousFlow]

at 0:26 I got the biggest shiver down my spine , ORGASMIC work buddy!

10 years ago since I've heard this

[xeroixix123]

This is one of the only songs in my playlist that I actually close my eyes and listen to. Its very beautiful and has a nostalgic like feeling. Thank you kyle.

[Janc004]

awesome

[Quasar97]

lovely! sounds much nicer than the original beatrice's theme, only if they did this in major. hmm

[Quasar97]

lovely! sounds much nicer than the original beatrice's theme, only is they did this in major. hmm

[lilremmus]

Perfectly done.

[MigasToulouse]

Just perfect, like the original one in piano collections. Congratulations

[xscreechmasterx]

This is beautiful, sir. Dare I say I like it even more than the original?

[StasisCube]

So- what does that say to me? Some guy thinks that Kyle is playing songs from Synthaesia. Well, I guess i did not like it. So: I said that thing above. It made nooooo sense. In more.... sensible terms what I was saying was:

Just because Kyle can play this and there are similar Synthaesia ... tracks? does not mean Kyle is playing from Synthaesia. It's a coincidence, or someone made a similar one.

Let everyone, especially me, learn from this: proof read your comments before posting!

[Alex0Dial]

I thought i was pretty decent at this song..but your version crushes the original..well done. i have played piano for about three months now after playing guitar for four years i finally decided to pursue my real musical desire which is piano..i hope to be this good one day. Thank you for this beautiful cover of this brilliant song. :)

[LordOzma3]

after 5 long and grueling months... I FINALLY finished this marvelous song!! <='D thanks to you Kyle, your video helped me out quite a bit! =)

[MajorSYTYCDfan]

I LOVE THIS. I LOVE FFIX. I LOVE YOU.

[MetalAnimer]

at 0:26 tears came to my eyes, i have FFIX since i was 8 years old, now i am 18 and i am still playing it.

[yukichancinnamonroll]

@MetalAnimer omg i know exactly how you feel man!!! im 17 but i have the game as well and its one of my favorite games of all time :) used to play it when i was little and now im playing it again. i LOVE the music and the story of it. :)

[kalem1988]

Thank you for this :)

[Ir0nman86]

you can find piano sheet music @ sheetsearch . com

[MDkid1]

the ff piano music is hard to play.

[SuperDeathkiller123]

piano collections......they are just so peaceful.

[kairen5443]

hah! one of most beatifull song ever written(by mean of music note) <3

[Joyfuljoyishepic]

Bonjour mes amis de mine.This est la meilleure chanson de Final Fantasy, à mon avis. ;3

[ameagor]

sometime i look at e-piano, i haet to fact that its just as good as normal piano when it comes to sounds. guess just my ears:S

great job man.

[seibify]

could you please private message me the site for the sheets?

[RumbleKrane]

is this an edit version of loss of me or i can find somewhere this very song? it's beawtyfull

[vortex18976]

im willing to pay to have this song on my ipod, is it on itunes?

[magik603]

@vortex18976 are you crazy? itunes is shit. Listen to it on youtube, and be glad, that there is someone who can play piano so well. Why do you want to pay for something free?

[ZeBabyseason2]

@magik603 to support the artist

[magik603]

@ZeBabyseason2

itunes gets almost everything so it's fucked up idea

btw if you wanna support him, just buy his album (worth its price)

btw2 he cant sell it because of copyright

thank you for bringing me here one more time :)

[piano3479]

im not a huge fan of this song, but it somehow keeps drawing me in.....

[monty4de4]

I can do better....IN MY DREAMS!!! MUAJAJAJAJA

[bliu7654]

@monty4de4 I'm not sure I can even do better in my dreams...

[ge2298]

how many years have yuo been taking lessons? this is amazing!!

[SammieeSaysRawrr]

Have you got any sheets?:)

Your music is beautiful, Mr Landry :)

[StasisCube]

I leave that comment up as a reminder to myself to READ my comments from the point of view of a 3rd party before posting. lol I can't even see how many negative votes I got xD

Also, again, that comment was directed at someone else.

[DarkKatfox]

Haha nice job done :) but I like it more if there was more small crecendos at around ~2:20....?

3:16: !! haha

[TheFirstMexiMutt]

You have probably addressed this , but what is the model of your keyboard? Gifted... Talented.. Not good enough for your playing. Thank you for sharing

[albert423]

@TheFirstMexiMutt Looks like the Yamaha P120 to me~

[Metalltool]

man you are inspiring. I'm sure if uematsu would see this he'd be impressed and deeply honored.

[Whilberboy]

That sound it's not from your electric piano... It's clearly a fake...

[wwyk1993]

@Whilberboy His electric piano can record songs by recording what keys he pressed an make it into an mp3.. Dude! You should increase your knowledge and do a little bit of a research before saying that it's fake!

[AnimeAddictsPodcast]

@wwyk1993

Why would it need to be fake? This piece of music is not difficult and neither is the interpretation. That said, I thought he played it very well. But seriously, go listen to a Chopin Scherzo, the type of piece you can break off a finger playing.

[wwyk1993]

@AnimeAddictsPodcast I didn't say it's fake. I'm just replying to a person commenting that it's fake.

[urbano277]

Where can I find this exact version of thsi song???

[sumashi]

@magik603 you mean if it IS kyle's arrangement, right? well i have it in a FF book that I bought.... but a little bit of searching on the internet and I found this :

Look up "FF Music Shrine" then go to their FF9 page.

It is near the bottom of the page under "Final Fantasy 9 Piano Collections", song #10. Although it is notated differently than the one I have, It's exactly the same version as the one he is playing. HAVE FUN!

[robdenteuling]

wow, you've played it so well! love it +1

[sumashi]

i have this same version in my FF book and learning it right now :) .. pretty much got the first 2 pages down and now working on the 3rd and 4th page now! you play it beautifully...i love it.

[magik603]

@sumashi

@jifpeep 

If it isn't Kyle's arrange, i want this music sheet.

PLEASE GIVE ME THE LINK. i must learn it. I will die without it.

But version in THIS video please. No easy sheet.

PLEASE PLEASE.

[gardar29]

You are amazing at piano! :)

[FilthySICness13]

Incredible

[scartrulez143]

great song!

[XandriaBraff]

this is amazing

[simonim]

can i get a download link for the song =s? so good!

[notexactlyanybody]

doesn't "メイ" read as Mai (May), while me will be written as mi / "ミ"

[Loetke]

@notexactlyanybody "メイ" is mei.

[jjfpeep]

The second version of sheets for this piece really is a testament to Nobuo's abilities... You get such a limited amount of what he wants when he has to write it for a game. When I think of Nobuo.. this piece is usually first to come to mind, it's one of my favorite pieces of modern classical music.

[VashFanboy1]

@jjfpeep Nobou didn't arrange the piano collections.

[OhRyan83]

Beautiful.

[PieMasterX13]

so this is the other version of rose of may? its nice good work.

[lipwen94]

i guess everyone here has an affection towards Final Fantasy songs...

the game is about the age of mine but it is receiving millions of views while i'm not....LMFAO

[Tobuoi]

All of your songs do a fantastic job of walking that wonderful fine line between happy and sad. It's magical. Above all, it's nice to see someone so dedicated to what they were clearly meant to do.

[Yakushii]

That was an amazing rendition of the piece. I absolutely loved the opening passage, and the way you played other "bass" notes than the original. Absolutely fantastic!

[SeaSaltSunset]

i thought this was called Rose of May

[Yakushii]

@SeaSaltSunset The Japanese title " ロズオブメイ " can be translated as either "Rose of May" or "Loss of Me". But you're right. The real title is "Rose of May", though often mistranslated as "Loss of Me".

[SeaSaltSunset]

@Yakushii

thinks for clearing it up. isn't it kinda odd how Rose and Loss are the same word in Japanese. A Rose is a sign of beauty, and loss means to not have something...

This somehiw reminds me of the "Cake is a Lie" quote from Portal.

[Yakushii]

@SeaSaltSunset Ah, they don't have the same word in traditional Japanese. But some times, the Japanese language will have a second word for the same thing, and borrow the word from the English language.

In that case, both Rose and Loss, will be translated into the closest possible semblance, using the Japanese alphabet, and become ロズ which is pronounced "ro-su".

They don't have L so it becomes R.

They don't have double consonant, so SS becomes SU.

[Alaxas18]

16 people's PC speakers are messed up

[NinjaLill]

I love it....

[ans7766]

absolutely gorgeous!!!

[ZackiiByNatalie]

I really like your interpretation of this song!! so gentle and nostalgic...

[solidruler21]

sir I just got one question for you.

I've been looking for this arrangement of the song on piano and I can't seem to find it anywhere. my question is where did you get yours?

[pianohero62]

I always love hearing how kyle fakes his videos. Ok, kyle if you were faking it, then I am more impressed with your "faking" abilities. It's really too bad that you are really playing this. lol Great work kyle. Keep on rockin' in the free world.

[TAGKikiAyame]

You are amazing!!!!

One thing that you could fix is the song title; this is Rose of May not Loss of Me

keep playing piano, you are my idol!

peace

[TAGKikiAyame]

@TAGKikiAyame oh wait, sorry, my bad, there are two different names for it or something

oops!

[StasisCube]

o i c why all the comments sound funny here... lol. My comment about the whole illusory correlations and stuff- sounds stupid, I know- they were not aimed towards Kylelandry at all. They were towards 23inda who thought kyle used synthesia-type programs. I like Kyles music a lot, and I believe that he practiced every bit of talent into his hands. Well... I'll just try and avoid confusing comments in the future ;D

[Ravewithme19]

Very beautiful

[StasisCube]

@kylelandry: ... me? if so... i just mean that he might be connecting the dots where no lines should exist. It's a psychology thing :D

[StasisCube]

dude... people do exist in the world who can play and improvise stuff. Just because you found something similar means nothing. It could easily be an illusory correlation type of thing. Just some coincidental information that you want to put together.

[kylelandry]

I am not sure I understand you.

[zaileron]

she thinks you use a program called synthesia (like guitar hero for pianos), cause a bunch of people on youtube take your arrangements and use synthesia to learn them

[angryguy10000]

@kylelandry i think what hes trying to say is that there are other people who can do what you do..but i doubt theres many people who are as good at it as you are

[RYDO1122]

@kylelandry dont listen to him ur like the best out there !!!!!!

[RYDO1122]

@kylelandry dont listen to him ur like the best out there !!!!!!

[Sainare]

@StasisCube if kyle was put a piece together by himself, he will say so. Just like he did with that amazing To Zanarkand. This is the actual piano collections piece for this song.

[Floorwalker1337]

@StasisCube lolwut

[nomis101uk]

@StasisCube

Were you high when you made that comment? It makes no sense whatsoever.

[StasisCube]

@nomis101uk lol that was about the dumbest comment i have ever made. I was trying to explain something, but i used the terms incorrectly, meaning it made little sense. Someone had said some negative thing or another (or so i thought), and... that was my reply.

I have to say that it really sucks that that is a comment that everyone who comes to this video will see, as kyle replied to it xD

[luckyjrs]

@StasisCube you can delete it you know?

[littlexwildxthing]

@StasisCube ......that made absolutely no sense

[mobilehacker300]

@StasisCube dude . . you high?

[LiiChinHo]

@StasisCube That was too funny. I'm laughing so hard.

[Haheehahohaheehoha]

@StasisCube

"I'm gonna try and sound really cool and inspirational here!"

[StasisCube]

@Haheehahohaheehoha lol- i was trying to defend kyle's piano skills, but- you are right-ish?

that aside, i wish i could see just how many negative votes i have, just because it's interesting o.O

[crayonkiler]

@StasisCube So in other words can u like...translate what you said on that comment u posted a year ago lol? Im curious and im sure as hell others are too....well since currently theres like 127 people agree on Kyle's "I am not sure i understand you" comment.

[23inda]

ur still awsome

[1987MattyP]

They use Kyles Arrangements.....

[23inda]

dude i just relized u find out how to play these stuff on that one totorial were it shows a digital piano and the notes come down. i no cuz i use the exact same thing

[iluvfinalfantasyx]

are you saying kyle uses that? b/c he doesnt. and even if you do watch those silly videos, it still would take major skill to play this. besides those are for people who don't read music sheet's very well. its better to learn to read the notes, than to use that as a cheat system.

[bencefica13]

@23inda geez.

[projectseph]

Wow...i never even knew there was so much to the song...

I spent the last many many years thinking it was the simple tune from the game..

..You have inspired me ..thank you..so much :)

[xCrystalTearsx]

Holy crap, I love this version of Loss of Me, you play it so beautifully. I can't find this specific arrangement, though. :( I can only find the original game arrangement. Where did you find this? I tried going to the Rocket-Piano website, but it doesn't load...

[Danieljosol]

Final Fantasy Music

look it up on google... even better, since its piano collections, not improvs, then you will be able to find the EXACT arrangement he's using FINALLY!!

[marksmanb727]

magical playing i inspire to play like you. Also on a side not Final Fantasy 9 = most underrated Final Fantasy ever

[yongsuiF]

Nice~~~~~~~~~~ hand made song

[CloudStrifeCosplay]

i bet the one on the right top right is Naruto , am i right?XD

i Already said how much i love the way Kyle play FF music so he don't need other compliment from me lol

[Chuuuuuuu]

this song reminds of of steiner and beatrix from ff9

[Schaufilein]

@Chuuuuuuu wtf? xD

[superman3343]

@Chuuuuuuu thats because its beatrix's theme....i think a little different though

[SmileySings]

@Chuuuuuuu That'd be because it's beatrix's theme!

[isaac4266]

Thank you for this. I'm working this piece up myself to make a youtube video, and your interpretation is beautiful. There are a couple others on youtube but yours definitely shows the most musical maturity and dynamic contrast, as well as better keyboard technique than most others. Fantastic job!

[Maizn32]

Dude ok job put you need to keep practicing

[invadrgir2]

die.

[MelodyOfOblivion99]

Think before you post stupid comments.

[mikkimtz1]

u r awsome!

[bs06cm]

This is absolutely incredible. It sounds identical to the recording in the piano collections in fact there's even more emotion behind it. Fantastic performance mate! You wouldn't happen to have the sheet music for this available would you? Or is it just the one available on the nobuo fanpage? Once again, amazing!

[89leviathan]

that was awesome, lol i got shivers up my spine during the ending, your amazing

[Boonyakieat]

im learning this piece, and you make it look much easier then it really is. great job.

[yukichancinnamonroll]

wow!!!!!!! BEAUTIFUL! BEST I HEARD! THANK U SO MUCH CUZ THIS IS MY FAVORITE TOO AND IF I CULDNT HAVE DONE IT BETTER MYSELF SOO THANK U! I LUV U!

[mbflashmaker]

very gret you must have the same sheet music s me it you play it just like the song very amazing

[enix0717]

i played this song for my finals in piano class, but i just play the original song. and once i heard you play, i was amazed how awesome you played this song. if you played FFX2-1000 words,that would just make my day.

[StasisCube]

he has, on his old accoount kyle556. the sound quality is not quite as good though.

[VIKTORPROJECT]

your piano collections are the best of the rest piano collections users, my skin are than chicken when i see your videos

[CloudStrifeCosplay]

the only words for this is "perfect" nothing more

[DeviantThief]

Perseverence and Hope

[Kiemransa]

[McGeilwa]

Very nice, keep it up.

[lloydxlomentigar]

[randomblade]

Nicely played.

[wasabisahara]

[shippudenfanatic]

when could you maybe do kugas theme from final fantasy 9? PLEASE!!

[MelodyOfOblivion99]

Kuja's theme, you mean?

That would be pretty epic though

[DaveDFFA]

thank you for correcting him. lol.

[1987MattyP]

Seriously marvellous piano player.

[Suschard252]

Before posting lame comments, do you even know that there 2 kind of sheets for this song ? The first one is the lamest, this one rock.. he is not improvising on this one... Good work, Kyle.

[LordOzma3]

@Suschard252 actually I got the sheet music for that version and I can tell he slightly arranged it... although it DOES sound better than the actual sheets! it sounds better than me though (even though I'm not hard to beat xD ) I just got halfway through page 2 so.................

[Integritius357]

despite what others commented, i have to say that your improvisation is badass. GOOD JOB XD

[Koumpounophobia]

Good God! You just take my breath away :3

[brida017]

WOW! nice work man, my fav final fantasy song!

[sdevoyon]

amazing ! ! !

[RainStillnight]

This is awesome...really. I'd give you 10 stars, if I only could.

[neojuanan]

WOOOOOAAAA!!!! Incredible!!! This song is perfect!!!

[Username93611]

I agree about the improvising... way too much. The trills in particular are really out of place.

[takigan]

I think you like improvising a little too much, lol.

[flipislander13]

2:38 ahhh this is really really good...

[sorenluver]

oh my god *sighs peacefully* wow, man i am so jealous, im a pianist and this is one of my fav songs ever, and u played it magnificently, ty for the song, i cant say how great that was, no words for it, *sighs again* ty...so pretty. im soo gonna find the sheet music for it,

[assaultcito]

[Bighitta1234]

[05tpull]

[SaniRox]

[moo8844]

Great job its flawless

[50ulHunt3r]
