エピローグ ~親しき仲間へ "To my Dear Friends" - arranged by Erutan ( katethegreat19 )

Музыка

My vocal rendition of Yasunori Mitsuda's エピローグ ~親しき仲間へ~ "To my Dear Friends" (a.k.a. 'Far Off Promise') from Chrono Trigger, one of my favorite RPGs of all time!
All vocals, instrumentals, lyrics and art by me.
Dedicated to all my dear friends...you know who you are.
I had quite a tough time recording this as I'm getting over a vocal strain and laryngitis episode that I had this past holiday season. Thought I needed to get something up regardless ^^;
For the art I drew the characters in my style, it's been quite a while since I did any fan art! Lots of fun, and challenging! All of Robo's parts!!! And Frog...it was hard to find a pose that made him look epic instead of comical ^^; Going to upload these on my deviantart if anyone wants a closer look later.
thanks for listening!

    It's my brother's favorite game. He loved it so much he would often listen to this game's soundtracks. Which is why during his funeral, the music box version of this is the one we decided to play.

    Came back to visit this old favorite and saw your comment. I'm so sorry to hear of your loss. A bit of unrequested advice; as you move forward and heal, think of your next pets as the successors and inheritors of your pets' legacies. It helped me remind myself I wasn't replacing the previous pet and also reminded me the new pet is a new personality and their own dog (in my case). I've taught her a few things her predecessor knew and she's learned things her predecessor never did. She's a different dog, but she is a most worthy successor to inherit the leash. I don't miss my prior dog so much now as I regret she and the new dog didn't get to share time together and I know they would have loved playing together. Best wishes and prayers you heal from the grief.

    My father has passed away a couple of weeks ago. About 10 minutes before he did, and I realized that there is nothing more I can do, I sat by his piano in the next room and played for him, hoping that hearing me play on his old piano would be the best comfort I can give to him at that moment. The only tune that came to my fingers at that time was To my dear friends by Yasunori Mitsuda. I played it and came back to the room and a few minutes later he passed away peacefully in my arms. I stayed strong through the funeral, trying to be useful, support my mother and made sure all the arrangements were made in place. Now as I sit and listen to this, i can finally let my emotions out. Thank you so much for this beautiful version of one of my favorite musical pieces of all time. This song will forever be engraved in my heart as a memory of my father, and your version will always be kept on my hard drive (or whatever replaces them in the future) for the rest of my life.

You have one of the most beautiful voices I've ever heard, you can play many, many instruments, some are even rather obscure, and you can draw? To top it off you''re incredibly beautiful. I want to be jealous but I can't, I'm too much in awe. I really love all your videos! Please keep singing forever more!

    I always hated lyrical interpretations of instrumental music, specially on OSTs. This videos is an exception. I played Chrono Trigger when I was 13. I used emulators to play it and I was really really happy back then, laughing about everything. I'm 22, now, with a job and a family to take care of and almost 10 years later, I don't laugh that much anymore. Games doesn't seem that much of a fun. However, remembering this game, remembering how it feels to save the world from Lavos made me smile like I was a child. Thank you!

    Lyrics, anyone? エピローグ ~親しき仲間へ "To my Dear Friends" - arranged by Erutan ( katethegreat19 ) The wheels of time have turned, and left their trails on every soul, and through memories I walk, their voices to hear, however faint, their tones resound in me, in a warrior's ageless heart. Dear friends, I loved you well, each steadfast heart, our dreams kept within, and though those days are lost, our story lives on, in bonds we forged, in battle blazing bright, in a warrior's ageless heart. (Vocal Solo) Now, by the hearth I rest, my battered blade, old friend by the fire, and an image I keep, their faces to see, each one so dear, forever bound to me, in a warrior's ageless heart. (Vocal Solo Chorus)

It hits a very deep and nostalgic part of me... not even because of Chrono Trigger or anything, I still haven't actually gotten far in the game, and believe me, I've tried. This arrangement is gorgeous, and I can't even start it up without getting teary-eyed. You did good. Be proud.

Between Trigger and Cross, I spent a good few months completely entranced in the Chrono universe again and had a new appreciation for all of it - especially the soundtracks! And one of my reoccurring thoughts was that I NEEDED to hear Kate do a cover of some of them. Thank you so much, this is beyond beautiful.
