As much as I like this song, it doesn’t fit Squal and Rhanoa. It fits best with Laguna and Julia. A song about a guy who’s too shy to step forward tot all to a beautiful woman who is waiting for him to make a move. They both watch each other and the woman hopes and prays he has the courage to talk to her and be the man she wants him to be so that he’s not just a dreamer but the love of her life. She wants to comfort him and hear his heart beating as they hold each other. She wants to heal his wounds and smooth his aches. She wants to make a future with him and all he has to do is talk to her. The song was perfect for those two and should’ve been the song that played when they are at the bar. Then it should’ve played as Laguna meets Rhanoa and reflects on what might have been before thinking of Rhaine and his regrets about not being able to be with her one last time before she gave birth to their son (Squall). In the end the story was good and had a lot of generational threads that helped expand the universe and this song was very touching but I have to agree with a certain Spoony Bard, that the fine details and the kiddish BS brought this game down. With just a few tweaks this could’ve been something truly special and worthy of a saga long movie series. As it stands, it’s a brilliant epic told with a child’s dialogue and goofy pablum. A dirty Star that could’ve been but was obscured by circumstances and never allowed to flourish like the romance between Laguna and Juliet. Poetically tragic
I'm not the greatest FFVIII fan but the Laguna/Raine story always felt so great to me. Goddamn scene during the ending made me cry :( I wish the whole story was about them
First time i heard this song is when i was a child a very long time ago.. now i tear up whenever i hear this song brings back memories when i was young and happy..
I played the game again and i noticed, this game is like starwars. Laguna has a child with his first lover and that is RINOA, Laguna married again and got her pregnant and that is SQUALL. its distrubing the daughter of the first and son of 2nd ended up together?
The way Raine walks up to Laguna before he turns arounds and smiles at him... just beautiful. You really see the love she has for him. Such an incredible scene and song. Timeless.
I just found a right person for me unfortunately in the very wrong time. She is not that beautiful but a hardworking, passionate, and independent woman. Sometimes on some nights after work she would stand in the side of the road just to hear all of my concerns and thoughts. The way she give me her opinion about my matters is somewhat relaxing my mind. And of course I do love her voice, somehow is beautiful for my ears. I just wish that I found her earlier 6-7 years back. Maybe my life would be different, happier.. And this song is representing my thought on her..
24 yrs later this still bring tears to my eyes...i have ps1, ps2, ps3, ps4, xbox 360, xbox SX, played hundreds of games in all these consoles..still ff8 holds the number 1 spot in my all time favorite game..
This game taught me how to read as a child, hahaha. It's also the first FF I completed. I am now 28, and this damn scene still makes me cry. I love this game so much.
Laguna x raine 💔 scene always make me cry so hard i miss my girl playing this until the end was our last moment every time i visit her grave i can relate to that moment 😢
Seifer getting pissed and throwing the fishing pole down made me loose my shit I’m sorry I know that this is supposed to be sad but it’s too funny for me
Does anyone know what version of eyes on me this is? It’s obviously not Faye Wong and the ones on Spotify aren’t this voice and version, I love it so much it’s so beautiful
