ICO - You were there

An AMV of Ico, set to its ending theme 'You were there'.

*Contains spoilers.*

I've had lots of people ask me for information about the song, so I'll just give that info here. The literal name of the track is 'ICO - You were there', and you can find it on the 'ICO ~Melody in the Mist~' OST (which you'll likely find on PlayAsia or somewhere similar).

Lyrics:
The island bathes in the sun's bright rays
Distant hills wear a shroud of grey
A lonely breeze whispers in the trees
Sole witness to history

Fleeting memories rise
From the shadows of my mind
Sing "nonomori" - endless corridors
Say "nonomori" - hopeless warriors
You were there
You were there

Am I forever dreaming
How to define the way I'm feeling

You were there
Countless visions they haunt me in my sleep
You were there
Though forgotten all promises we keep

Slaves to our destiny
I recall a melody
Sing "nonomori" - seasons lit with gold
Say "nonomori" - legends yet untold
You were there
You were there

Happiness follows sorrow
Only believing in tomorrow

You were there
Countless visions they haunt me in my sleep
You were there
Though forgotten all promises we keep

The island bathes in the sun's bright rays
Distant hills wear a shroud of grey
A lonely breeze whispers in the trees
Sole key to this mystery

Its a shame that singers like this are left unknown by the general public while Bieber gets all the popularity.

Ico isn't a game... it's an experience...

@isabellaV21 I would say that the shadows were a part of the castle, which was connected to the Queen. When she died, so did the castle and the shadows, allowing Yorda her freedom from such an unfortunate condition, which is paralleled in Ico losing his horns.

@Grothmanus Thanks, I wasn't sure! I wonder how she was able to escape her fate when she seemed to be enveloped in darkness?

[Grothmanus]

@CaroLovex33 I have not played SotC, but explain hhow Ico has a sad ending. Before the part after the credits, I an agree, but that was not the whole ending.

[Grothmanus]

@isabellaV21 That is correct. Ico wakes from the boat and finds Yorda, who we thought was dead, washed up ashore.

is a beautiful .. game as beautiful as Shadow of the Colossus. The music, graphics, everything is beautiful at These games. Also are not happy endings, Which is sad But It Gives you more curious to know what Will Happen. I love to have my ps3 to play the last guardian. These games are so inspiring That I like to experience Their world. simply the best ps2 games
