I know you posted this 2 years ago but I just discovered your channel. Absolutely beautiful. Nostalgic childhood captures the songs perfectly. Thank you.
Thank you so much!!! Yeah the OST sample sounds like a guitar. It seems learning this song is a rite of passage for guitarists who are fans of FF, like the Prelude for harpists 😂
Every time I think "man I wish she'd do a cover of THIS, it would be perfect" you suddenly upload it. I now have no choice but to assume I have you under some sort of long distance, unintentional mind control. And yes, this was perfect.
@@Harpsibored Well if you ever decide to do *spooky*, a harp cover of The Extreme could sound really cool, especially if you tweaked the speed of the second bit so it was slow and creepy instead of paced for combat. Thanks for the music.
Another underrated hit from Final Fantasy VIII. So good. There are a ton of calming songs throughout the Final Fantasy franchise that I think so many people overlook. Fantastic arrangement, and it really does give a sense of serenity and calm.
Thank you so much!!! Yeah FFVIII is chock full of chill ambient stuff. Really happy I got to play this. Incidentally, this one also had minimal left hand movement and was easy to play on my wrist the past few weeks. Win win! 😂
I think you're doing it to stop the string vibrations, but every time you reach out your arm to touch the strings, it looks like you're so proud of your harp that you're giving it a hug and it's very wholesome. Fantastic rendition of one of the songs I go to when I need to chill out, so now I will be coming here when I need to chill out. Thank you for sharing your talents with us.
Thank you so much 💖 Here's an extended version too if you wanna listen longer to chill out hehe th-cam.com/video/eikXCuni7z8/w-d-xo.html And yeah those gestures are to mute the strings to prevent the song from getting muddy. This song is technicallyyyy meant for guitar, so without muting on a bigass harp it starts to sound a little messy lol
When you just woke up (didn't even dream I was a moron), it's raining, you see this went live and it's so relaxing it's tempting to just drift off again ☺️💚 it's a simple tune, but has some deceptively tricky aspects to being played on a harp, well done 😄
Thank you so much! Yeah it's interesting hearing this song on different instruments. Where the guitar brings more brightness/clarity, I think the harp brings more resonance/deepness. Can't really go wrong with any instruments on this song, though 💙
Hey Harpsibored, not that you don't deserve it for each of your other performance uploads, but for this one right here... I'm just compelled and gotta say it...Thanks for the performance~
Given your incredibly impressive, emotional style of playing, I expected you to also create an artificial flageolet. But otherwise it was played very well, I had goosebumps! Bravo!
One of my favourites from FFVIII! And nicely played! ...looks like it doesn't have too many accidentals, I might try it on my lever harp. I love this piece, I'm gonna be trying to play it for hours and my partner is definitely going to get sick of it. She can blame you for it.
Geez I'm happy for this track right here. One of my faves from 8 and just all time in general. Very calming and relaxing, I could just run around the town for an hour and also just do nothing. I'm sure many can relate to just listening to this music with the game running. Very simple, yet charming and effective to a great degree. This was definitely a treat to listen to on the Harp, and I think it's the first time I heard a harp rendition of it. Well done! It was just as amazing on the Harp as I could imagine. Thanks for sharing and giant thumbs up from me all the time! 👍 👍 🎶 🎵 Perfect performance!
Thanks for listening dude! Glad I covered an FF8 favorite!! 💙 This has always been one of my favorite FF town themes and wasn't quite sure if it would work well on the harp until recently. Whoo!
@@Harpsibored Haha a funny thing is, as soon as the video was over and I left, the first video recommended to me was a different harp rendition of Breezy. Seems the algorithm is picking up on my words a lot lately. Oh how nice! It only took them about a year! 😆 You're welcome! 😁
@@LoneTreePeak lol I'm guessing it was Branna Laurelin? She's got some great stuff. Definitely recommend her Eyes on Me harp/vocal cover: th-cam.com/video/UrJ-G9xeHbk/w-d-xo.html
@@Harpsibored Hey what the? You were right about it being her. Also I checked that link. Pure magic! Thanks for the recommend! I hope to see you singing while playing in the future too! 😉🙂
@@Harpsibored Oh and by the way congratulations on the 2k sub mark! See? I told ya it would come sooner than later. I've been with you well before 1k, so it's really nice to see you get here at this pace. I hope your channel grows even faster as time goes on and I think it certainly will! 🤝 😁
Thank you so much! It's one of my favorite FF town themes. It's weird how much destruction happens around Balamb because the town and the garden have the most chill background music 😂
@@Harpsibored ff town themes are so calming, like ff12's Eryut village and ff9's village dali and Oeilvert the only 2 songs I can play on flute, which I picked up at the lockdown too haha. Eryut eludes me still though. Guadsalam is a favourite too but I can't imagine it on one instrument, oh well.
@@Soar19 yeah FF9 Dali is on my to-do list for sure. Oh nice, flute sounds like a great hobby to pick up during lockdown! Soothing instrument. I agree Guadosalam sounds challenging heh
Wow, perfect! This is exactly how I'd expect it to sound in a remastered version of the game...if that ever happens 😅 In the meantime, this one's going straight into the work/study playlist. Thanks!
Woke up and saw this in recommended. Had to listen, almost brought tears to my eyes from the memories. FF was a great time for my childhood, FFX-2, and FFXI specifically. Great music to listen to on the harp played by you. Keep it up, I'll be listening =D
Thank you so much for listening! 💖 Hah, you like FFX-2? I was not a fan of that game honestly BUT I'd really love to play the menu song on the harp sometime. We shall see
Thank you so much! 💖Haha yeah even though there aren't that many accidentals you'd have to be quick to get those levers in time with this song. Could be doable though.
@@Harpsibored Thank you for your feedback. Otherwise, I am always impressed by the quality of your mix. Do you plan to make a video showing how you mic your harp and explaining your mix? This might interest many harpists, I haven't found much information about it.
@@arnaudbannier I started recording pretty recently in life, barely 2 years ago. I dunno what the hell I'm doing half the time hahaha. So that being said, I'm super flattered that you like my mix quality!! I'd be happy to make a video on it at some point, maybe once I figure a few things out first. I'm in the process of trying to treat the room a bit, so once I've got that settled maybe it's something I could look into 😄 if you ever wanna chat about recording stuff in more detail though feel free to DM me on Twitter or IG!
Mmmmm those harmonics sound so good on harp. Loved this! This song has been part of my standard warmup routine when sitting down to play my guitar for quite a while now. It's simple enough to just turn the analytical part of the brain off and just feel it. Is it the same for the harp, or do those chords with accidentals make it not as simple?
Oooh that's a fun warm up routine. I approve. Sometimes I warm up with the Prelude, hah. The accidentals are not bad at all on the harp in this song! Only 2 notes if I recall. Melody of Lute on the other hand was a pain in my spoony bard ass
Hi Harpsibored - I love your "Breezy" Harp solo. Your performance was so delicate and I loved the rich and reverberant tone of your instrument, especially those harmonics. I subscribed to your channel. Marc Filmer (piano composer)
am i remembering this clearly? this theme hits after a pretty heated action segment. i remember as a 12 year old this music hitting me like cold water in the face, and i intuitively knew that i was going to engage lots of different parts of my brain (not just the explosions pew pew parts) to figure out ff viii. it does not care about pleasing me, this game cares about telling a HUGE story
Hmm I'm not sure, I think you first hear this theme when Squall is on his way to his final SeeD test in Dollet. But it's true that going to Balamb in between tense parts of the game does create a nice sense of calm
After the mission in Dollet, after fighting a giant mechanical spider on the way back to the boat, this music kicks in once you get back to Balamb. Definitely like cold water to the face lol
Thank you for listening 💖 Tis a rare, beautiful thing for algorithms to work. My browser still thinks I'm only interested in hair loss prevention pills.
DAMN! You did absolutely fantastic.. If I didn't know better, I wouldn't even know it wasn't the actual music being played. Major, major respect to you. This was impressive as all HELL! Time very well spent. You've got a lot of skill/talent, for sure.

I know you posted this 2 years ago but I just discovered your channel. Absolutely beautiful. Nostalgic childhood captures the songs perfectly. Thank you.
Thank you so much!!! 💖 hehe I will continue to do more FF music, stay tuned!
I don't know the original but listening to this one I would've thought it was composed harp in mind, not guitar. It's pretty!
Thank you so much!!! Yeah the OST sample sounds like a guitar. It seems learning this song is a rite of passage for guitarists who are fans of FF, like the Prelude for harpists 😂
Classical guitar. Really early in the game. I know it too
@@Harpsibored Yep. I never got far with guitar, but I did of course attempt to play this song immediately.
Childhood memories from 1998-99 unlocked
Aww, before we were soiled with Y2K scares and anthrax. Good times.
Every time I think "man I wish she'd do a cover of THIS, it would be perfect" you suddenly upload it. I now have no choice but to assume I have you under some sort of long distance, unintentional mind control.
And yes, this was perfect.
How do you know I'm not controlling you first? Where do you think those ideas in your head come from in the first place? 🤯
And thank you! 💖
@@Harpsibored Well if you ever decide to do *spooky*, a harp cover of The Extreme could sound really cool, especially if you tweaked the speed of the second bit so it was slow and creepy instead of paced for combat.
Thanks for the music.
I literally scoured until I found it
This is one of my fav tracks from the series, just makes me feel relaxed.
Yeah I'd just leave Squall standing there doing nothing in Balamb. Screw the mission, there is music to be heard!
❤
😂nice@@Harpsibored
Me too. Makes me feel like a kid again, I had a troubled childhood and this game was an escape. It holds a special place in my heart.
Another beautiful performance with an appropriately themed outfit! ^_^
Heh, you get me. Thank you!!!!
素晴らしい。あの時の情景が蘇ってくるようだ。
ありがとうございます💙
Another underrated hit from Final Fantasy VIII. So good. There are a ton of calming songs throughout the Final Fantasy franchise that I think so many people overlook. Fantastic arrangement, and it really does give a sense of serenity and calm.
Balamb Garden is probably one of the best examples of this.
Thank you so much!!! Yeah FFVIII is chock full of chill ambient stuff. Really happy I got to play this. Incidentally, this one also had minimal left hand movement and was easy to play on my wrist the past few weeks. Win win! 😂
This is the one FF song I can play on guitar. Really cool to hear it on harp!
If I were a guitarist I'd definitely have learned this song sooner hah. Thank you!
Exactly the same :)
I wasn't fully aware up until now about the fact that FF8 OST has sooo much harp in it
I think you're doing it to stop the string vibrations, but every time you reach out your arm to touch the strings, it looks like you're so proud of your harp that you're giving it a hug and it's very wholesome.
Fantastic rendition of one of the songs I go to when I need to chill out, so now I will be coming here when I need to chill out. Thank you for sharing your talents with us.
Thank you so much 💖 Here's an extended version too if you wanna listen longer to chill out hehe th-cam.com/video/eikXCuni7z8/w-d-xo.html
And yeah those gestures are to mute the strings to prevent the song from getting muddy. This song is technicallyyyy meant for guitar, so without muting on a bigass harp it starts to sound a little messy lol
When you just woke up (didn't even dream I was a moron), it's raining, you see this went live and it's so relaxing it's tempting to just drift off again ☺️💚
it's a simple tune, but has some deceptively tricky aspects to being played on a harp, well done 😄
Thank you 💚
My heart really enjoys your music...
Thank you 💙
@@Harpsibored 💚
Oh it sounds so lovely on the harp 😊 Thank you for this! I play this one regularly on guitar myself, it's good to get a fresh take.
Thank you so much! Yeah it's interesting hearing this song on different instruments. Where the guitar brings more brightness/clarity, I think the harp brings more resonance/deepness. Can't really go wrong with any instruments on this song, though 💙

Wow this is amazing
Thank you 💙
This is just perfect ! Wasn't expecting it to sound so good on harp! Keep up with the excellent work !
i agree- it’s perfect 🥹😔🤦♂️
Thank you Queen of Alexandria!
A guitar is just a mini harp
beautiful playing. Very nostalgic, thankyou
Hey Harpsibored, not that you don't deserve it for each of your other performance uploads, but for this one right here... I'm just compelled and gotta say it...Thanks for the performance~
Thank you so much! 💙
This was one of the first songs I taught myself on the acoustic. Still, after all these years, it is one of my most frequent warm up songs.
Hell yeah! I used to warm up with the Prelude hahaha
love the harmonics part. ❤️
Thank youuuuuuu 🎵
This is a beautiful rendition, well done :)
Thank you!! 💙
Given your incredibly impressive, emotional style of playing, I expected you to also create an artificial flageolet.

I might try it on my lever harp. I love this piece, I'm gonna be trying to play it for hours and my partner is definitely going to get sick of it. She can blame you for it.
Thank you!! Yeah I think this is doable on lever harp, just requires some speed. It would sound nice too at a slower tempo though. Good luck!!!
I appreciate the effort you put into learning the songs and putting them up on TH-cam. Thank you for your awesome work!
Thank you so much!!! 💙

Heavenly! The first song I learned to play on the guitar! And one of the only...
It seems to be a rite of passage for guitarists who are FF fans, heh. Kinda like the Prelude for harpists. Thank you!!!
absolutely love this rendition. not a theme I paid much attention to when I was playing the game, but it might be one of my favourites now.
Thank you so much! It's one of my favorite FF town themes. It's weird how much destruction happens around Balamb because the town and the garden have the most chill background music 😂
ハープと収録してるお部屋の音の響きが最高ですね!
コンピューター音と違って生ハープだと音を止めるのにしっかりと間を取るのですね。本物を見て聴かないと、勘違いしてしまいますね。
Beautiful, thanks!
Thank you for listening! 💙
This is so beautiful, adding it to my sleep playlist lol great video!
Thank you so much!!! Will do an hour long version of this too at some point, that should be easier to fall asleep to 🌙🌙

Best version of this song i have heard yet. Fantasric job! And those harmonics...pleasently surprised.
Wow, thank you very much!!! This song has been covered so that's super flattering! 💙
Sooo beautiful. It feel like the song is created to be played with harp. Harp sound of the sea, it match well with the song.
Thank you for listening! I agree! If only harps were more....sand resistant.
Wow, perfect! This is exactly how I'd expect it to sound in a remastered version of the game...if that ever happens 😅
In the meantime, this one's going straight into the work/study playlist. Thanks!
Thank you so much! I'll do an hour long version of this sometime as well for optimal work/study listening.
Hell yeah--thanks!
I could listen to this for hours...

Really takes you away to a peaceful breezy coastal town... loved every second
Thank you 🥰
Thx love FF8

Thank you so much 💖 hey for all you know, it could've been 90% wrong notes 🤣 I appreciate your faith in me
Sounds great!
Thank youuuu 💕
Thank you! Breezy is the best tune from FF8 for the harp.. and the melody gives me a feeling of gratitude and peace.
Gratitude and peace sounds like the perfect way to describe this melody. One of my fave calming pieces from FF8. Thank you so much!!! 💕
I got this one down on acoustic guitar. Love playing it and just vibing.
This is the perfect guitar song heh. I was pleasantly surprised it worked on a harp too
Absolutly beautiful. Thank you.
Thank you for listening 💙🌊
am i remembering this clearly? this theme hits after a pretty heated action segment. i remember as a 12 year old this music hitting me like cold water in the face, and i intuitively knew that i was going to engage lots of different parts of my brain (not just the explosions pew pew parts) to figure out ff viii. it does not care about pleasing me, this game cares about telling a HUGE story

Thank you, that's a huge compliment! 💖
So many memories flooded through my head listening to this. It's amazing how accurate you are on these songs. Bravo
Thank you so much!!! Memories of chilling in Balamb, trying to get cards....🌊

Thank you so much 💖🌊🎵
Amazing. Definitely brings back good memories. Now I want to play FF8 very lovely.
Thank you so much 🌊💙
great work, sounds fantastic. many fun times playing cards with Zell's mom
Thanks a lot! 💙 Did you get the Zell card or did Ma Dincht kick your ass
Did you play in the original soundtrack ? Captures every essence of it! 👌
Oh miss, very beautiful.
Thank you ❤️
Great stuff!
Thank you!!! 💙
I remember thinking I was so cool learning this on guitar. And now that's almost two decades ago!
We have come full circle, friend! Just tell me your DoD name
Love those harmonics, sound just as good on Harp!!!
Thank you 💙

Thanks so much! Would love to do Balamb Garden someday but my spidey senses tell me it may be a pain in the ass on the harp. We shall see
beautiful

Ngl I have no idea what you're talking about lol
@Harpsibored sorry my bad 😅🤣
Oh god that sounds so beautiful!! I love how you play, with such grace!!
Thank you!!! Glad that I had already done your request, hehe.
@@Harpsibored I'm having a ball going through your work!!
I forgot about this song for some reason. I used to go back to it, just to get the maddening Triple Triad out of my head.
Hahaha I have no complaints with the Triple Triad music!
@@Harpsibored You obviously didn't play it obsessively enough.
Sooo goood! Thank you. I'm looking forward to the other FF towns if you decide to go that route.
Thank you so much! More to come soon hopefully!!!
