[FF9] Piano Cover: Melodies Of Life ~Final Fantasy [FF35th] 

FF9を予約して発売日に購入したときビビのぬいぐるみが付いていて、 大切に持ち帰りビビを飾ってから力尽きるまでやりました。 当時はスマホやRU-vidなんてないので、この歌を聞くためにビデオで録画してリピートして聞いていました。歳をとった今でもFFで1番好きな歌です。そして歳をとった今でも歌詞をみなくても歌える歌です。

エンディングのエンドロールでこの曲が流れ、そしてメインテーマに移る瞬間は何年経っても笑顔と涙が溢れてくる。

子供の頃、エンディングでこの曲が流れてきたときの感動は今でも忘れられない。全編通してプレイしたからこその感動。ファミ通に掲載されていた、白鳥さんと植松さんの対談記事も何回も読みました。この間のFFコンサートの存在を知るのが遅すぎた…。

This brings me back to a happy time when I still had my mom around. I love this song.

This will always be Uematsu magnum opus of a love song. I know Eyes on Me charted better but this song gets the purity and innocence of Garnet and Zidane's love for each other.

この曲は僕が今まで愛してきた歴代のFFの主題歌の中で一番最高に大好きな曲です。 寂しさを感じさせつつも美しい旋律…とあるキャラクターの心情を表した歌詞…そして白鳥英美子さんの透き通るような歌声で歌われるこの曲は何年経っても、何度聴いてもまた涙する事ができる…最高の楽曲です。 年の瀬に最高のピアノアレンジをありがとうございました😭🙏

ゲームをクリアしてエンドロールが流れる時にそれまでの旅の思い出が1番よみがえって溢れたのはFF9。 歴代FFテーマソングで1番好き。

Final Fantasy 9 is my favourite. So listening to this makes me feel so nostalgic.

なんと言うか…FF9は命に寄り添ったゲームだったなあ…と強く思います…。

英語版に似たアレンジがこれまたいいですね・・・ Melodies of Lifeは自分が今まで出会ってきた音楽の中で一番好きな、大切なものなので、 こうしてまた美しくなったMelodies of Lifeを聴けて幸せです。

二十年、ずっと心にある歌です。原曲よりもややフィールド曲的なアレンジにも聴こえ、また旅に出たくなります。素敵な演奏をありがとう

FFの中で一番好きなシリーズ あの世界観がすごく好きだからリメイクでps4やps5で出てほしいなぁ❤

All the memories of growing up watching my late brother playing FF9 just rushes in...oh the happy memories....thank you very much for this🥰🥰

聞いたら涙が出てきた、やっぱFFシリーズの中ではFF9が一番、 エンディングが頭で流れる

Forever will love this track. What a beautiful and heartwarming song

プロピアニスト中山氏はバラード向けの演奏家ですね。この曲は優しい気持ちになれる、少年少女のあの時の気持ちを思い出させてくれる、原点に戻れる素晴らしい曲です‼️まさにFF9のテーマである【原点回帰】😊

The memories.. Final Fantasy IX is so special 🥺

FF9 has been my favorite game and favorite piece of media ever since I first played it on release. I'm always excited to see it getting attention and I hope to see more FF9 music covered here! (Especially a cover of Freya's Theme!) Thank you Nakayama-san for such an incredible rendition of Melodies of Life! You did an amazing job!

WOW. FFIX is my favourite FF. This arrangement and rendition is so beautiful. This song has and will always be a part of my life. Thank you.

FF9 is my most favorite FF！！！

おおおお中山博之さん！ 2014年に読売大手町ホールで開催されたピアノオペラ今でも覚えてます!

This is far my favorite piano cover now. I always have teary eyes when hearing this song specially with Ms. Emiko Shiratori. Thank you Sir Hiroyuki Nakayama for this wonderful cover. Please Square Enix give us a glimpse of hope if you plan to make a remake for this game. Thank you.

あの頃の想い出がよみがえる。

Absolutely love how this song is incorporated throughout the game as zidane and garnets relationship grows thru the game

2022年の記憶を空に預けて、2023年も生命は続いていく。

つい最近FF9の隠れた演出（足の速さ、武器の構え、言動の変化）などの解説、考察動画を見たから感動も一入。

作曲の植松さん　最高♪

Hiroyuki Nakayama is playing with such tenderness.

This theme always gets me; and makes every time I complete IX feel like it the first time I did so long ago. Thank you so much for this beautiful cover!

泣くから

音色がとにかく優しくて泣かせてきます… 懐かしいというか心の琴線にそっと触れて想い出を慰めてくれるような感覚に包まれます🥹

Please give us the REMAKE that FFIX DESERVES.

仕事で疲れて廃れた心が癒やされた。

浄化されました… どうもありがとうございました😭

This song memory are game rpg ff9 i plays so nice i Like from Malaysia

はああああああ沁みる…

I never played the game, but its soundtrack is beyond beauty.

This beautiful version makes me feel as warm inside as the game does

I'm always holding back my tears whenever I hear songs from FFIX... it is my favourite Final Fantasy and my number 1 game of all time. Thank you.

This is a beautiful performance of a wonderful song from my memories. FF9 will always be my favourite!

My first FF, My favourite FF

One of my favorite games, and a beautiful arrangement! I hope these piano arrangements will have downloadable sheet music for fans to also indulge in these memories. ❤️

A very beautiful piano performance by Mr. Nakayama.

Alone for a while I've been searching through the dark For traces of the love you left inside my lonely heart To weave by picking up the pieces that remain Melodies of life love's lost refrain Our paths they did cross, though I cannot say just why We met, we laughed, we held on fast, and then we said goodbye And who'll hear the echoes of stories never told? Let them ring out loud till they unfold In my dearest memories, I see you reaching out to me Though you're gone, I still believe that you can call out my name A 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 So far and away, see the bird as it flies by Gliding through the shadows of the clouds up in the sky I've laid my memories and dreams upon those wings Leave them now and see what tomorrow brings In your dearest memories, do you remember loving me? Was it fate that brought us close and now leaves me behind? A 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 on If I should leave this lonely world behind Your voice will still remember our melody Now I know we'll carry on Melodies of life Come circle round and grow deep in our hearts As long as we remember

I love this song. I sing along and cried.

All those memories with my brothers playing PS1 with them, I am happy and sad at the same time...

So lovely to hear this one.

Such a sweet performance, love the arrangement as well!

この歌好き！！！

I haven't watched it yet, but I already know I'm going to love this! This is one of my favorite songs and FF9 is my special game, love that one so much. First FF game I played before going back and finding the SNES games for my SNES and ones on PS1. So basically it's my entry into the series and forever I will cherish this series.

アレンジしたコードが神ってる。

This isn't the piano collections version but it's embellished in some parts and absolutely gorgeous! Beautiful take on one of my favorite pieces in all of final fantasy.

Oh good, I woke up wanting to cry this morning

A very Beautiful song 🙏

My most favorite😊

I genuinely believe this to be one of the best pieces of music ever composed.

Amazing, ffix always

I just watched Crystalline Ressonance and Hiroyuki Nakayama was the pianist. I hope SE will release an album version of the concert. I'd like to buy that one!

Lovely

best Final Fantasy song

Just found this channel because of this song and subscribed.

I learnt piano because i was into this song and this game. Nostalgic! Hoping for a #finalfantasyixremake 🙏🏻

I may like Final Fantasy VII's story slightly more than Final Fantasy IX's, but.....when I finally heard *"Melodies Of Life"* for the first time after completing the game awhile back, that was the game, the song, that caused tears to form. Not VII.

あんまり泣かせないでください...

This song always in my heart.

i bet you have extra more finggers inside your sleeves!😅 brings back memoory!❤ this is what you called TALENT. you are amazing!👏 two thumbs up to you sir! 👍👍

優しさに満ちあふれていて、癒やされます涙が出ます😢素晴らしい演奏とアレンジ🎹このピアノの楽譜を販売されていませんか？こんなに素敵な演奏はできませんが、自分も奏でてみたいです🎹
