[Gorefang89]

You put some serious heart into playing these don't you, haha. Liked those 'subtle' variations, it's what makes the music worth playing to the individual. ^-^

[tmoney515]

where did you get the sheet music for this???

[TheTheCatshow89]

Its Squaresoft not Square Enix

[MihenHighroad]

@TheTheCatshow89 not anymore it's not

[TheTheCatshow89]

@MihenHighroad Square Enix has made​the eighth part.

Square Enix has taken over from the 11 part.

[MihenHighroad]

@TheTheCatshow89 you mean squaresoft made the eighth part? Yes I know. But squaresoft doesn't exist anymore so it's correct for him to "cite" (?) it has square-enix

[TheTheCatshow89]

@MihenHighroad is now square enix square soft that their names have changed.

or hate square enix take übenommen but are still in the emale SquareSoft employees. #

I look through there before.

[ilovedaftpunk55]

@TheTheCatshow89 IT actually is Square Enix. Square and the Enix Corporation merged on April 1, 2001.

[TheTheCatshow89]

@ilovedaftpunk55 Okay

[theuglyhairmonster2]

my leg cramped up while watching this lol

[ch355fr3ak]

It seems as if the piano sings and weeps copiously with each note that is played. Simply beautiful...

[bonziwells2k9]

[peterpepper1978]

Waaaaaahnsiiiiiinnnnnnn!!!!!!

[Arkton]

@peterpepper1978 Danke =)

[1318991]

BTW: Anyone: How hard is this piece from a scale from 1-10?

[FixedGearJoker]

@1318991 6-7 i guess, coz its almost the same and you will play it intuitively. its final fantasy haha :D

[1318991]

@FixedGearJoker You serious`?

[TweFoji]

@1318991

well i do play this song ( not as good as this video ) but i would say it's not that hard

nothing is hard if you just practice, it took me 3 weeks to be able to play this song fluently ( im lv 5 btw )

although i will still need a note

[1318991]

@TweFoji Thanks for your reply. How many years have you played is you're level 5? I dont know what that meansv in terms of how good you are:-)

[TweFoji]

@1318991

i played for 4 years

i play piano on and off, level 5 is like Auld Lang Syne, Amazing Grace, Moonbeams In Your Eyes, etc

well, i was level 5 before, but right now, i forgot most of the songs because i have not played and i dont practice anymore, but i am saying, if you practice alot, you can play all songs you want =)

[1318991]

Beautiful

[calvincalvin5035]

nice~ you're the best~

[qwerty13star]

[kenrosenberg76]

men... no matter how many times i listen to you play this song, i still cant grow tired of it :') i love to listen to it in the evening god its so comforting!!!!!!

[ChaostTtian]

HOW CAN SOME ONE DISLIKE THIS... >.< it annoys me when people like this have so much talent, and people come along and dislike a video... of course they are either jelous, or maybe they don't like the music - but still, when its composed like this, there is no reason to hate it... ^_^ keep playing :)

[stryfen]

wow dude, that was just brilliant!!

[everthestylia]

[mrarctictuber]

[Bluetadblue]

I walked down the aisle to this song on valentines day. This is a beautiful song and is wonderfully played x

[TonyChupacabra]

What a beautiful song.. And an awesome rendition at that! Is is possible to find Tabs or Sheet Music for this?

[BeautifulLosersMusic]

Makes me wanna fall in love

[mmhsbando]

@babydancer07 This song was originally vocalized (sung by Faye Wong) and was arranged for piano for the eventual "FFVIII Piano Collections" version that they do for every Final Fantasy game. This is just one of the songs in that collection.

[729luvchan]

Love the music! Love how you perform it! Is there any website that I can get the piano sheet online?

[lockh33d]

We used this as our wedding song and our first dance.

[nyappyboucafe]

i can imagine you playing in a fine dining restaurant, or a ball...

[nyappyboucafe]

[Sonicfalcon16]

Did any famous singer sing "eyes on me"? Or even for an american Idol audition?

[babydancer07]

@Sonicfalcon16 I didn't know there was words to the song O__O

[sebas555666]

[adityawiraraja]

[Claire123802]

@Omniscientmonkey

danke sehr^^

[cowzilla8]

Man, in my opinion, Final Fantasy and Kingdom Hearts has some of the most beautiful video game musics ever composed. They both just really bring out the inner beauty of one's musical skills. And this is one of a great example. Just my opinion.

[rogerliciouz]

@cowzilla8 Uematsu says it all :)

[SWH1990]

Remind me of someone i love.But she rejected me.!!T.T (pain)haiz....

[Wiiguy]

Such emotion, this is great. You are a great pianist, and one who plays with emotion, that is even better than the most technical pianist. Well....Ever watched ValentinaLisitsa? She's insane! lol Beethoven Moonlight 3rd.

[Noddy2121]

Beautiful.

[XxMutilatedxX]

I love the way your piano sounds, what kind of brand is it?

[GwenzyMac9E]

This is absolutely beautiful!! Well done :D

[TweFoji]

This song, no matter how long it has been, listening to this, when thinking while i was playing FFVIII around 9 years ago, it always nearly make me cry.. ;(

[alvin4351]

amazing and magnificent application of pedaling :)

[yunihan]

beautiful song ... thanks much !

[Vahmong]

u suk... i want the music sheet

[AnimeGirlNJ]

[ihsanihsan2]

[Returacan]

[beautybabebuzz]

[kaungmyat007]

This is totally awesome.........

[ReyhanGaos]

Amazing! i love this song, make a tutorial, please.. :(

[viady271]

20 people are deaf 4 not liking the song this is wonderful for crying out loud

[NicholasCobalt]

20 people clicked the wrong button, I knew it was a mistake to put the dislike button so close to the like button :(

[QaphsielZMUx]

awesome

[paraparakosaka]

bravisimo~

[TheLunaShadow]

Simply gorgeous!

[ericmarx66]

is this song diffiicult ?

[luzhougl]

@ericmarx66 it is, but as long as u r willing to spend time on it, it's doable for basically everyone.

[davidomgwork]

@ericmarx66 playing it int to bad, but being able to put the right dynamics and tempo is a bit tough, scale of one to 10 I'd give it a 5 or 6,

[A10hybrid]

@davidomgwork

Are you talking about this piece? You are entitled to your opinion if so.. but in my opinion, this is a 9-10 out of 10.

[davidomgwork]

@A10hybrid I'v been playing for a year, I can play this, not to a performence level opinion, but I can play it with a few flukes.It's not that bad.

[TheArtOfHands]

Wonderful execution! your is a Good Interpretation of this track, thank you. Just a question: what's the model of your electric piano?

[aqua924]

何回聴いても飽きません!

素晴らしいですヾ(＠⌒ー⌒＠)ノ

[awesometylerable]

twice as many people have watched this than have watched Barenboim interpret Beethoven's sonatas and people in Europe were murdering for those tickets. you're fucking amazing.

[Consolas]

@awesometylerable Went watch some videos after your comment. Impressive to say the least. Amazing. Thanks for the tip.

[tunteella]

very well played, great job! : )

[kumorinoshikyo]

Beautiful, simply beautiful. =D

[DarkPhuoc]

20 People didnt have any eyes on them because they were to ugly

[dylandark05]

@DarkPhuoc *too

[Silverstein1883]

( ; _ ; ) 

[luzhougl]

i am trying to play this as my recital next week. but now i can only play the first two pages...i am sooo dead

[juggaloJ8704]

Wow. That took some dedication to get your mind to follow that. I love it. Big fan of the games, and you sir do them their justice.

[gliepner]

this brings back memories of probably the best FF (imo) ever made.

I wish they would remake it with updated graphics, or even a movie.

Screw FF7 movies, FF8 would be so much better!!!

thank you for covering this!!

[busterwolf97]

@gliepner Dude, if I could thumb up your comment at least 30 times, I'd do it. Fuck Advent Children, lol.

[Gnosis2810]

I still think this is the best performance of all the Final Fantasy piano performances on here. Just perfect.

[SnaggaSheeYoung]

Julia is proud of you ! ;D

[gunfart]

y no sheet music requests??

[justa16thnote]

@gunfart Square Enix does not give away the sheet music for free. You need to BUY the actual book. I know it's a hard thing for people to go out and use money these days, but that's most of the reason why there is a recession right now.

Go buy the book, learn the book, be a better pianist. Don't steal it off of some shifty website.

[gunfart]

@justa16thnote there is a book?! where can i get it?

[justa16thnote]

@gunfart I'll put a link on your page.

[gunfart]

@justa16thnote thankoooooooo

[patrickjcollett]

beautiful... love it....

[yhieiy]

I have this one sided relationship with the piano. I love it with all my life but it doesn't love me back at all... hahaha! You're an awesome pianist.

*inspired*

*practicing on the piano* THANK YOU!!!! ^_^

[bananababy26]

I play this song to my baby in my belly :)

[ichimaruasd]

no one else in youtube can play this song like you Arkton.... so much emotion...

[wrw28405]

I try to find music to play for a setlist and find nothing. But when I turn to game themes, and I find the casualness and the carefree melodies, on top of much jazz and uniqueness, I think I'm going to make my setlist for gigs out of game music.
