The first time I heard this piece, I didn't think much of it - but I started to like it the more I heard it.

This is the piano piece played at the end of the last and fourth volume of the Dot Hack video game series, .Hack//QUARANTINE (Playstation 2)It has quite a few variations of Aura's theme (also known as Hope of Dawn) in it.

I wish I had the game, but it's near-impossible to find it now...dot-hack//G.U. is fun to play, though ^^

I wanted to upload this song, partly because I don't have anything to do during the summer (literally - most people I know are too busy with their lives to talk with me during the summer, so I'm stuck at home ^.^''...),
and partly because no one's been playing it yet on Youtube.

I think I made a few errors, sorry...

Since my brother got a new camera, I got his old one - I'm happy =)...but now I can't find the recharger so I'm stuck with only one video =S...dang.

man, I can't stop listening to this.....

btw, how do you practice piano? I'm currently practicing this.. well I'm just curious on how people practice in piano.. do you master the left hand first? or do you master it every bar? @_@

@666Deathscythe

It's hard to figure out for me too, haha :) It depends on the song, I think, and your preference at the moment. If you're left hand is weak, or there's a hard part for the left hand, then practice that by itself, and vice versa. My teacher taught me that it's also best to divide the song into sections, play the first one with hands together very slowly, then move on to the next one after you've got the gist of it and played it a bit faster, and so on. Best of luck :D

I'm curious though, how long did it take for you to learn this?

@Shugo5775

This was a bit long ago so I can't really remember, but when people say they've been learning a song for a month, it's likely because they've only been playing it a couple times per week, and if they say they've been learning it for a day, it's likely because they've been playing non-stop - not really how long it took you, more of how much hours you've put into one song :)

This was during the summer, so about a week :)

Ahh Nostalgia! I'm one of the fortunate people who managed to get the last copies of these games in my neighboring cities. xD They are indeed very rare, most people buy 'em off of Ebay now. The second and third are particularly rare, the first is least and the fourth is just. . . a little more difficult than the first.

@Shugo5775

I found the 1st and 2nd copies at a gigantic flea market, hehe, my dad was staring at me because I kept jumping up and pointing at them xD I called every EBGames store in my city for the last 2, unfortunately games as old as as popular as there aren't sold there anymore (including Okami and Katamari, sigh) Best to either get them online or search every single corner that sells retro games.

i really like this ^.^ you're really talented

The music in the first .HACK series really touches my heart.

[wiredtech001]

The only 7 games I still own... I will never sell the .hack games ever in my life lol... but god this is my most favorite song from the entire series <3

[666Deathscythe]

@FlowerEmblem o yeah, one more thing.. how long did you usually practice this? I mean like 15 mins every day, or 1 hour every 2 days, like that..

[666Deathscythe]

@FlowerEmblem ah I see thanks!! ^_^
