I love this song, it brings me a smile and tears every time I hear it. Final Fantasy IX is the first one I ever beat, and this masterpiece of a game will always hold a special place in my heart.
“ The voice from the past joining yours and mine. Adding up the layers of harmony. And so, It goes on and on. Melodies of life, to the sky beyond the flying birds. Forever and beyond “
And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment: (Hebrews 9:27) The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. (2 Peter 3:9) I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish. (Luke 13:5) And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent: (Acts 17:30)
Not only is it beautifully written and beautifully sing, but keep in mind the singer here is Japanese, and, save for a couple vowels, it's almost impossible to tell. Serious props to her, to be able to sing in a foreign language with such a good accent!
This game NEEDS a remake. I tried playing it for the first time in 2021 but... the story & characters are amazing, but it really hasn't aged well. Combat is super slow, as is world traversal. Had to give up on it after about 10 hours.
