TPR - A Melancholy Tribute To Final Fantasy X - A Fleeting Dream (2014) Full Album 

It's the first 2000s. You come back from school, it's raining. One of those winter days when it gets dark early. You go to your room, and put Final Fantasy X on. Everything is fine, you are happy. Hundreds of hours tick away, and this amazing soundtrack starts to become your home.

there was a lot of time in my life where i was just scared of either finals or what to do in my life. Im now in sec year of college. i was playing this game since i know myself. my brother used to play while i was sitting next to him and watch him play. we are not really now in good terms and even tho i love him he seems to be far away from me. im trying to keep in contact and always give him informations about myself, how was my day or how many times ive played this game or Kingdom Hearts. hes not the same brother I used to know and we are not that close like we were 12 years ago. It hurts just how much im holding this game so deep in my heart and yet he seems to not really care. This game always makes me cry not only because of the wholesome storyline and music, but also cuz this game created my entire childhood together with Kingdom Hearts. Its so dear to me cuz im trying so hard to keep my memories of me and my brother since we went through sum big troubles back then and there were not really a lot of positive memories of my past, but im keeping it so that maybe one day he will be here with me just like he was 12 years ago. Me and my twin sister still play this game and its been probably our 60th gameplay or even more im not really sure. but no matter how many times we played this game, the feelings never really changed and we adore every part of the game. Now that im in college im in a lot of pressure but the ffx music always keeps me calm and i hope maybe one day i will as well make a game or a story that will strike someones heart as well and would hold that deep in their heart just like i did for this game.

I remember sitting in college freaking out for my finals as a junior in 2014 and I would always wonder if I would make it in life and be successful as I was a single dad and everyone thought of me as a failure. I was indian and my son was half Asian. I was the black sheep in the community. That’s when I stumbled upon your music. I would listen to this tribute religiously while I studied for my finals. Every day I would go to classes and right after hit the library and play this tribute loud in my study room while i practiced calculus, coding, engineering physics all of it. I was never smart i failed the math Taks test (Texas standardized test) every year from 5-11 grade. I wasn’t special, I did so much stupid shit it all caught up to me. Now Fast forward it’s 2019 I’m 25 and I work as a computer engineer, I have fully custody of my son and I couldn’t be more grateful about life. listening to this same tribute. Thank you for creating this music it helped me overcome a lot of things in life and here I am today coding and doing spreadsheets and listening to this beautiful tribute. Long story short don’t ever give up in life. We all go through so much and a lot of people don’t know our stories but, if we keep pushing forward and change your mindset the world will bend to your will. I’m in tears because I’m so thankful. Thank you for your music.

The Island of Besaid... 20 Years ago a little Boy played FFX the first time, i put away the Controller just to listen to the Besaid Theme over and over again... One day i will find my Besaid, my little Piece of Heaven out there in this dark and cruel world

Your take on Besaid just blew me away. That song has always meant so much to me. I remember coming home with that game and flipping through the manual before putting it in the ps2 to play. My mom asked me why. I told her that I was just kind of soaking it all in. Final Fantasy meant something back then, and I was old enough to realize things didn't last forever and young enough to still enjoy it like a kid. I remember getting to Besaid early on and just pressing pause and letting this song wave over me. Instant nostalgic trip.

i love church bells like in out of the frying pan. one of the reason i loved the dark world in final fantasy vi so much.

This is one of the greatest, saddest tributes to FFX I've ever heard. Praise be to Yevon.

Depression treatment. Thank you

Dear TPR, found you randomly, but rest assured, you're one of my fave artists on youtube now. This is just heavenly.

No ones left a comment for years but just wanted to say I've listened to your channel for years now and this is my favourite compilation. Your take on these masterpieces is beautiful, this game and this music to this day holds a special place in my heart for personal reasons. Your take on Yuna's theme is breathtaking carry on doing what you're doing making awesome renditions.

There is something about the stories in these games, the places and the environments in these game, there is something about the characters in these games that are basically more than what it is taken to be as. These were never just games there is more to all of these games of great potential such as FFX and FFVII, I am telling you people there is a reason why we are so very attracted to these “games” in such a strong way, there is a deep reason why they resonate with us, something related to us on both the soul level and the human level. Same goes for great franchises like LOTR. These aren’t just stories, it’s not just fantasy and it never was. it’s just that these stories tell of a world/time where Manna was more abundant and the inhabitants were more connected to spirit. I believe that the soul is represented by the heart and the heart doesn’t lie, I believe these things were actually real or they will be in the future, yet again what is the future and the past anyways ? Regardless, there I said it, that they were never just stories, they were always related to that which has depth and meaning, it’s for that reason that we “the gamers” actually get mad when the producers/ writers start screwing up the story, it’s because we don’t want the story to be hijacked and ruined liked many other things have been before. We cherish them because they resonate with us and they resonate with us because we cherish them. With all if that being said I almost forgot to thank the great producer of this beautiful mix of tracks, thank you so much 🤍 I love it.

I have trouble sleeping and often this kind of music calms me right down.

"You're too edgy. Listen to TPR and calm down." - Lulu (Under Lake Macalania)

crazy how many years i keep coming back man... its never enough

Its an honor that i can listen to such a beautiful piece of art

This whole ost brings the feels... Had a brother who past away from suicide and this game we bonded over many years ago. As a musician myself It's absolutely amazing to hear your take on this ost. Your took a masterpiece and ran with this melancholy motif, and it's truly moving. Keep up the good work. Love and prayers.

I cried ... Again ... everything is just perfect ... I don't want to lost my memories about this game ...

I still listen to this almost every night to fall asleep for the past year or so. Thank you!

The slow piano version of the Battle theme is goosebumps.

Auron's theme was absolutely beautiful.

I feel like this is the cure for dicovering your feelings again its so moving

31:31 I was in a coffee shop running away from home when I heard the news. Our hero, Jecht, gone - vanished into thin air! My Dad must have been his biggest fan. I knew how sad he'd be. Heck, we all were that day. "Zanar" I says to myself, what are you thinking? I went running straight back home, we sat up talking about Jecht all night. My Dad and I never talked so much. Whoa... didn't mean to reminisce folks.

Patricide hits so well

The nostalgia is pouring over me, listening to this... Final Fantasy X is my favorite video game of all time, and I'm a sucker for melancholy music, so, this really gives the game's soundtrack justice, for me. I really adore this.

Fight With Seymour was absolutely epic in a whole new way

The battle theme is something else. I keep coming back to it over and over and over again

The single best RU-vid random stumble ever. I cannot stop listening to all of these. Bravo sir, this series is a massive accopmlishment. Absolutely gorgeous.

youtube recommendation bringing this back

No game could ever give me the same kind of experience as final fantasy X did and still does and this interpretation of the soundtrack is just perfect. Theres nothing better to draw and chill to than this so you got a like and a thank you from me!

“I wanna be a Blitzball when I grow up!” - Random Kid

Fight with Seymour is just beautiful.

Yep. The Via Purifico music still makes me want to cry until I die of dehydration.

One of the best relaxing albums of all time. TPR is seriously underrated. You are a legend in your craft. The perfect mix of music for studying, sleeping, meditating etc etc You want to be at peace with your body and soul, content that the path you're on in life is the right one and in the end, no matter how difficult things be, everything will work out in your favour? This is the album for you. :)

Damn fleerting a dream always made cry ... And in this melancholy versin even more

Always come back to this when I need a soak in a soothing audio hot tub. Thanks for what you do, it lifts my spirit every time.

Thanks for the album TPR!! The music on this video gets me through the day. It gets to you mentally working 50-55+ hour weeks in the office. Hearing this and taking calm breaths gives me a brief sense of relaxation to get through this dreadful day.

Always listening since to all your stuff all these years never stopped

What a refreshing remake! A great way to revisit old classics. Very well done. Who isn't melancholic?

Even in its melancholic version Auron's Theme is pure badassery!

Servants of the mountain is so beautiful

How come I listened to Final Fantasy soundtrack for more than 10000 years and never came across your arrangements until now? They are beyond perfection! You make the beautiful pieces sound even more beautiful and pure. Thank you so much for this wonderful interpretation. It's moves me to tears!

Made me cry. Absolutely stunning. This deserves millions of views.

The way you interpreted the Battle Theme…

I just came across your Thunder Plains cover separately and I really just wanted to say how amazing and magical it is. Thank you so much for your work :D I look forward to listening to the whole album!

WIIIIIIIIIIIIIILSON!!!

That first track though.

This is one of the best videos I’ve seen on RU-vid since the website first came online. What a joy

mi'ihen highroad....everytime i hear that theme i keep remembering the old man and his long ass speech. nightmares till this day lol but the whole sound track is beautiful. well done :)

Loved this playlist great job. It brought back so many memories and feelings.

This is my jam

I’m gonna cry

Yuna's Theme, in the original OST sounds like the beginning of summer, the enjoyable lazy afternoons. With your version, it sounded like something straight from a funeral lol. It's really amazing how you literally "depress" the tracks! :O

omg that battle theme is phenomenal

Out of the Frying pan is so damn good. Thank you so much for this!

So peaceful and sad.. It makes me cry..

The first song is so beautiful T_T

I feel as if this video will never get the credit it deserves. It's so well done and just about captures all the feels one might have playing through FFX. Well done sir, you are an artist in every sense of the word.

RU-vid just autoplayed this randomly, and holy fuck, I wanna give RU-vid a medal for that. This is amazing! I was IMMEDIATELY pulled in with Besaid, and Zanarkand bade me stay the entire album. A+ work.

This is my favorite TPR album, I've listened to it dozens of times all the way through. Thanks TPR!

You manage to make the battle theme go from "Hey guys! Lets to take out sin!" To "If we manage to kill sin.. I will die, can we really do this?" Its absolutely gorgeous, excellent work! You earned a sub in me.

This is amazing.

I clicked on it thinking it was just one song. Good lord man.... I was about to crash now I'm stuck up, I'm going to buy this later, amazing. Love the other stuff too.

Quite often piano renditions are a bit to harsh and loud for me. But yours have a soft, dreamlike quality that makes them blend in with Spira's vibe. It's a also the right decision to still let some pads and strings appear rather than translate EVERYTHING to piano. Fantastic work overall, thank you.

These arrangements are superb!

im so used to the battle theme being all energetic,sped up and a "LETS KILL SIN!" kind of song. But the way you slowed it down,made it your own and just put it in a new,different angle/perspective really makes me have a bunch of respect for you. it's too gorgeous and I actually think I prefer the way you arranged it to the original because yours has a lot of emotion and heart to it, not saying the other one doesn't. But, I can actually feel it all with your version. As for the rest of this album, it's beyond perfection as well. you did an excellent job! keep it up (:

That Battle Theme sounds incredibly amazing!

Whow, that drop end of Besaid into beachside waves...

Big fan of the game and as a bonus my little baby boy just loves falling asleep to this

I've never played the games, but these songs have such a beautiful, melancholy feel to them overall. It might be that soothing piano making me biased, but there's something about this music that tugs on my heartstrings and lets me stare outwards to horizons already crossed. Distant and personal, unfocused and surreal. It's hard to capture such emotion except in a musical medium, and harder still to capture it so profoundly. Thank you for this.

Master piece

7 years did past, since you uploaded this awesome Album. I feel like i wasted 7 years of my life

I have played final fantasy games since the 90's. Just noticed that lulus theme is just a rearranged narshe/ world of ruin theme from final fantasy 6

Amazing music! Zanarkand and Gagazet mountain. It's wonderful

This means so much to me. Thank you for this gift. I listen to this for years now.

This is exactly what I need to get me through work today. Already feeling more relaxed and productive!

Wow, thats a nostalgia trip. Instantly flash back to Besaid and the very start of the game. FF 10 AND 10-2 are still my favourite Final Fantasy games ever.

This is definitely your best work.

I just.. I want another FFX. I need a game to bring back all the characters. Idunno, like maybe some openworld something where you have to travel to each world in Final Fantasy and bring back the characters. All I know is, I just need more of this. This music, this game, this all

best video game ever, the best ffx to my eyes

I love that your started with Besaid Island.

I've always loved the Shoopuf theme, but this version of it is on another level. It sounds so grand.

Got this whole thing on repeat whilst I'm working. Thanks TPR!

I don't know how you don't have more subscribers, you deserve so much recognition. This album is just one of many I love of yours. Absolutely breathtaking. Thank you so much for your amazing work.

This is one of my favorite games. This is also one of my favorite osts - this album inspired me so much in 2017 and still does. TRP and this music he made from a timeless classic game and sound has inspired my music. Thanks so much !

That's it. I died right when Zanarkand came on. *Cries my soul out and then reincarnates*

It really wouldn’t surprise me if I already left a comment on this before. But I must commend you for this is absolutely beyond words. FFX ost is my #1. It’s quite spellbindingly perfect.

Thanks for this. I'm glad others still enjoy this music.

I remember laying laying down the controller to listen to the marvelous soundtrack to FFX while playing it on the PS2. By that time - after playing FF games up to that point - I figured it out that the games were amazing for their soundtracks as much as anything else (and there's much to be amazed at beyond the music). But I couldn't help getting lost in that wonderful world. I made a mix CD shortly afterwards to enjoy. FFX has aged well. Its a great game in a tradition of great ones.

I love the whole thing, but Besaid could take me out of any bad mood-ever. Perfect.

I never realized how similar Ride Ze Shoopuf and the FFIV World Map theme are in melody.

turns the auron theme from epic to calming epic

Next to ofc Zanarkand that Seymore battle cover is really nice... the whole cover is awesome.

Still come back to this masterpiece years later - absoltely the BEST. Thank you

All of your arrangements bring a new depth and refreshing feeling to these masterpieces. Thanks for dedicating your time and energy in recording these, I use them often for writing, typing, reflecting, etc. and find them perfect for it.

Thanks for creating this

Zanarkand makes me cry every goddamn time

What a start to the album!

I wanna play type-0 right now, but I don't wanna stop listening to this..
