No matter how many years pass, how many decades may go by, this will always be so funny. What a gem of a game. Thanks everyone for having been here, and thank you @harpsibored for your wondrous art.
I didn’t imagine how pretty this would sound on a harp! What I love about your versions of these FF songs is that you tend to keep the emotions of the original versions. It feels like you understand the feelings that Nobuo Uematsu and the others intended to communicate to their audience. When you combine that with your beautiful playing, you make the songs shine so much. Thank you!
A superb rendition. FFX is another one of those special soundtracks, where with every piece of music you can visualise exactly where you'd be if you were playing the game.
I can't believe that this game was released 23 years ago, when I close my eyes and listen to this song, it feels like it was yesterday... pure magic. Thank you 🙏🏼
exactly perfect for that point in the story before seeing seymour, the revelations that happen at mt gagazet between yuna and tidus before progressing to zanarkand
I have never played this game, but due to a college roommate's obsession with this OST, I have always appreciated this particular piece of music. I saw it in your list of works, and knew I was in for a treat. You didn't disappoint. Thank you! Your sense of humor is also on point, and keeps making me laugh with your descriptions. I laughed aloud at "making me hate butterflies." Even without in-game context, that's funny. Thanks for all the effort and kindness you put into your channel.
Every other version of this song on here it sounds like the parts are all at war with eachother. You are phenomenal and make all the sounds flow together. Expertly done.
One thing that i learned about that minigame that helped was the triggers weren't the butterflies themselves, but rather they're static locations on the path. When i learned that, i was able to figure it out with just a bit of trial and error.
Another song I use to set my controller down to and fall asleep while the music played in the background. I have not played this game in years but still remember the detail in that forest. Nobou Uematsu we miss you in all the subsequent Final Fantasy games. I’m on FFXV and music is not the same. Thanks again for another beautiful cover.
Oh I love your rendition of that second part at 1:40 . It was so cute, playfull, funny, and beautiful! awesome work! I didn't know harp was such a cool instrument!
Thank you so much! Yeah in that section I tried not to interpret the song as literally and adapt it to suit the characteristics of the harp. It was really fulfilling to play. Thank you for listening ❤️
This tune is responsible for me learning to play guitar in 2005. There is a channel blitzwater, his dad did the first viral final fantasy music video on the internet with it. He also did, Terra's Theme and the Eternity-Light-Waves cover... The sound of Calm Before the Storm is part of TH-cam history, so you're singing praises to that long tradition by giving your playing and talents to this tune done by Uematsu for the 2001-2002 game.
I’ve heard this piece ad nauseum in game and this is the first time I’ve ever heard it in my head in triple meter and it makes so much more sense now lol
I've watched several of your videos now and this one moved me to comment. I'm a classically trained trumpeter, and I always find much joy in playing something technically simple but emotionally moving. You play beautifully, and hearing these songs on the harp is a wonderful experience. Side note: is it a requirement that all harpists look like angels? Cause I know three and each one, including you, looks like they stepped out of a Michelangelo 😂
THE FFX song that soothes me and makes me feel so nostalgic for my adolescence when I discovered the game 😍❤️❤️❤️ A huge thank you for your magnificent interpretation on the harp 😊
Thank you so much!!! ❤️ Same, die-hard FF fan here since age 12. Can't get enough of the music. Btw, here's an hour long extended version of this if you want: th-cam.com/video/Fe0K1tShxxw/w-d-xo.html
@@Harpsibored You just made my upcoming weekend reading time that much more special. Thank you again, you truly belong within the realm of Final Fantasy!!
Very nicely done . FFX is full of great music and you as always remind me of the great melodies of the FF franchise. This was a great rendition on all accords :D
This is such a beautiful and peaceful tune, I kinda hated how the battle theme broke it with the glass crashing and the DUN DUDUN DUDUN every 5 seconds lol. Much better when revisiting the area later with No Encounters on. Love the performance!
Thank you so much! Hahaha ugh I love FFX but the glass breaking transition was overkill. It's like the developers knew they were creating these beautiful serene environments and felt like gamers needed a jolt into hell.
I always loved this one from FFX. Such a mystical and enchanting vibe. Hearing it on the Harp just takes me places, not the annoying cloister of trials, but the good places. 😁 Very nice arrangement and extra magical touches of yours here. The glissando is always a nice technique for me to hear. I am now 100% more enchanted because of your rendition. Awesome performance! Thank you for sharing this. Loved it yah? 👍 👍 🎶 🎵 3325😵💫💥🏐
@@Harpsibored Hahaha you're welcome. Also....I see you made it well over 2k by now. That's incredible! See what I mean? I told you a little bit back that the second thousand subs seems to come quicker, well....this just came at phenomenal speed and you deserve every bit of attention and much more. I'm so thrilled to see you're gaining momentum at such a quick pace. I'll talk about this again at 5k! 😀😃
This soothes my troubled soul ❤ one of my favourite pieces of ff music and now my favourite iterations of it . Bravo this is magnificent ❤ love from the uk 🇬🇧
One of my absolute favorite tracks from FFX! Funny enough, I already did not like butterflies before reaching the forest 😅 Lovely arrangement! I like the balance of using the LH both for bass and for harmony in the first half. The virtuoustic mid section was a nice addition!
Thank you for listening!!! Ugh for some reason I've never been able to complete the butterfly minigame. But I never use Kimahri at the end of the game so I guess it doesn't matter. 😂
@Harpsibored yeah, I don't think many people use Kimahri at that point 😂 the only Celestial Weapon I've never been able to get is Lulu's. I've tried the crater trick in the past. I just need to give it another go, I suppose 😂
Thanks to my grinding in Kilika Woods to farm spheres, my then-roommate is sick of this song! But I never will be, because it's frickin gorgeous, and you've played it so beautifully, very lovely work here.
I only recently came across your channel and I'm so glad I did!! FFX & VIII are my favourites and your arrangements are incredibly beautiful, I could happily listen for hours 😌
This is so gorgeous, and it's wonderful to see you making your way (downtown) back to playing more tricky pieces again 🥰 I love this, and I'm so happy for you 💚 And congrats on stealing the show at VGM Together! 💃
Wow! I'm not sure where to start there is so much I would say to you. Firstly this is one of my fave pieces of music ever I'm also obsessed with final fantasy music and consider Uematsu a modern day musical genius! Saying that I'm sure he or few people can play a harp like this!!! You are an angel. Absolutely flawless playing like you are one with the harp. I think if I was straight I'd want to marry you! So glad you decided to pursue this. Simply beautiful ❤️
I remember back when you said harps could be played slowly to cover up mistakes. Look at you now! An absolutely gorgeous rendition and your strumming is excellent. Thank you for sharing Harpsibored! Fuck the butterfly minigame.
Lol wait what'd I say? I think it's harder to cover up mistakes when you play slowly. Well anyway thank you very much as always!!! 💙 Catching butterflies and Kimahri can be safely ignored.
I'm admittedly not a huge fan of FFX, but I must also admit that the soundtrack is great! This track in particular is dripping with, I dunno, mystery and intrigue? You captured it really well here!
That's an excellent question, for which I should really have an answer, haha! 😅 I'm honestly not really sure. There are certain things that bug me, though that could be said about any FF game... -I'm not a huge fan of Tidus (or Wakka, Jecht, or even Yuna to some extent). I suspect it's more to do with the voice direction. I wonder if all dialog was just delivered by text, if I'd like it more. I'd love for someone to release a mod that disables voices so I can test that hypothesis. -I also don't like some of the things like the lack of free exploration with the airship, which probably just makes me sound like a grumpy old man. -I *hate* blitzball! -And yes, haha, I definitely hated the 200 lightning bolts!! Weirdly, I had a ton of trouble with that but no trouble with Tidus's chocobo stuff. Probably makes me even more of an oddball when it comes to my FFX experience. There's more, but I'm not sure it should add up to my utter apathy about the game. It's not like I was anti-change either, since I quite liked FFXII (though I hated XIII)!
@@ryandude3 Understandable, it was the first FF with voice acting so there were definitely some clumsy moments. But overall I thought they did a pretty good job. Lulu and Auron definitely had the best voice actors IMO. I think Tidus's voice actor was trying really hard to portray his more outgoing disposition and it ended up coming across as whiny sounding somehow. But I give the guy credit for his effort! Weirdly, I also hated blitzball my first playthrough. And then the second time I LOVED it. The thing about blitzball: the introduction of the game is AWFUL. They force you to play in the story when your characters have zero EXP or abilities. You're almost doomed to lose and can't do shit. So a lot of people start off with that impression of blitzball and never go back to it. But if you give it another try it's pretty fun IMO. Pro tip: fire all of the Aurochs and recruit free agents who are better players lol. Sorry, Wakka..
Yeah, I definitely think the cast did well given the context of their situation. Hell, I *love* James Arnold Taylor's work overall, especially his perfect Obi Wan! I suspect the voice direction is largely to blame, though even then I agree that Auron and Lulu stand out. Resonant Arc's recent series on FFX dove into some of the dev history and how surprised James Arnold Taylor was at some of the direction he was given. Speaking of that series, it really made me appreciate how cohesive the story is and how well it was delivered compared to FFVIII, which I love despite its frequent inability to convey important story beats effectively... Makes me think that if I can get over (or disable) the VA, then I'm in for a treat. As for blitzball, you make a really compelling case because you just described *exactly* what happened to me! I hated that tutorial match and ended up just handing the controller to a friend that had already beaten it, haha! After that I tried maybe one or two matches but just wasn't invested. Now you have me genuinely curious... Thanks for the tips!
Just ran into your channel. This is really awesome to see someone who appreciates the music of these games and plays as beautifully as you. Looking forward to seeing what else you produce.
I completed FFX a bit before leaving Glasgow, ending a years long relationship and moving back to my country, so... listening to you is so melancholic... You are incredible, I love the way you move, your hair, your silk dresses

No matter how many years pass, how many decades may go by, this will always be so funny. What a gem of a game. Thanks everyone for having been here, and thank you @harpsibored for your wondrous art.
I didn’t imagine how pretty this would sound on a harp!
What I love about your versions of these FF songs is that you tend to keep the emotions of the original versions. It feels like you understand the feelings that Nobuo Uematsu and the others intended to communicate to their audience. When you combine that with your beautiful playing, you make the songs shine so much. Thank you!
That's a huge compliment, thank you so much!!!! Sometimes I imagine the scene the song's from as I play, so maybe that helps 💕
That's just what I was thinking.
I agree, these renditions absolutely have the same soul as the original. ❤
A superb rendition. FFX is another one of those special soundtracks, where with every piece of music you can visualise exactly where you'd be if you were playing the game.
Thank you!!! 💕 yeah this song instantly brings up images of an icy blue forest for me. Love it.
Chasing those stupid butterflies for hours. Hahaha. Love this rendition
I can't believe that this game was released 23 years ago, when I close my eyes and listen to this song, it feels like it was yesterday... pure magic. Thank you 🙏🏼
Andddddddddddd now I feel old. Hah. Thank you for listening! 💖
This was always one of my favorites - something slightly mysterious, ominous, and melancholic about this one. Love your version!
Thank you so much!!! 💖
exactly perfect for that point in the story before seeing seymour, the revelations that happen at mt gagazet between yuna and tidus before progressing to zanarkand
This could literally be in the games soundtrack and fit in perfectly. Awesome
Thank you so much ❤️ if I were Kimahri, I would creepy smile right now
@@Harpsibored lol that scene is so funny. Tidus: "Saaaaad."
Came here from reddit after someone posted your Besaid video, to see if you had covered this one as well. Was not disappointed.
Subscribed.
Glad you made it here!!! 💖 Thank you so much!
This is mezmorizing. It's one of my favorite songs from FFX and you nailed it! Thank you for this gem!

Thank you so much!!!!! ❤️
Plot twist: You're the harpist Tidus and his friends meet in Macalania Forest.
Don't those guys disappear or something in X-2 😅
A butterfly with rainbow wings will lead the way to secret things
Every other version of this song on here it sounds like the parts are all at war with eachother. You are phenomenal and make all the sounds flow together. Expertly done.
Such an iconic track. Very haunting, very mysterious. If only the butterfly minigame was a bit more fair...
Thank you ❤️ I have yet to ever finish that minigame, but Kimahri sucks, so it's all good.
One thing that i learned about that minigame that helped was the triggers weren't the butterflies themselves, but rather they're static locations on the path. When i learned that, i was able to figure it out with just a bit of trial and error.
One of the most beautiful pieces in VGM played perfectly on its optimal instrument
Thank you so much 😭🎵

Thanks so much, glad you made it here!! One of my fave FF songs too 💙❄️
I'm still slow binging your channel and I still can't get over how good you sound. I hope Nobuo sees this eventually.
Thank you so much!!!! ❤️ omg that would be amazing
Again, a highly suitable song to be played on the harp, loved it :))

Hah, getting through Macalania Forest encounters can be a bit of a drag, but at least the atmosphere's beautiful.

Thank you!!! Yeah this is one of my favorites from FFX 💖
I really hope this gets an extended arrangement. I could listen to this for a long while.
Will definitely extend this one at some point. Thank you so much!
This is such a beautiful and peaceful tune, I kinda hated how the battle theme broke it with the glass crashing and the DUN DUDUN DUDUN every 5 seconds lol. Much better when revisiting the area later with No Encounters on. Love the performance!
Thank you so much! Hahaha ugh I love FFX but the glass breaking transition was overkill. It's like the developers knew they were creating these beautiful serene environments and felt like gamers needed a jolt into hell.
Amazing that this track still reaches to today. It's timeless. Brilliant job 🙌
Definitely in my top 5 tracks from FFX. Weird how this song only plays in dungeon/enemy areas because it's so relaxing, heh. Thank you!!!

-I'm not a huge fan of Tidus (or Wakka, Jecht, or even Yuna to some extent). I suspect it's more to do with the voice direction. I wonder if all dialog was just delivered by text, if I'd like it more. I'd love for someone to release a mod that disables voices so I can test that hypothesis.
-I also don't like some of the things like the lack of free exploration with the airship, which probably just makes me sound like a grumpy old man.
-I *hate* blitzball!
-And yes, haha, I definitely hated the 200 lightning bolts!! Weirdly, I had a ton of trouble with that but no trouble with Tidus's chocobo stuff. Probably makes me even more of an oddball when it comes to my FFX experience.

They force you to play in the story when your characters have zero EXP or abilities. You're almost doomed to lose and can't do shit. So a lot of people start off with that impression of blitzball and never go back to it. But if you give it another try it's pretty fun IMO. Pro tip: fire all of the Aurochs and recruit free agents who are better players lol. Sorry, Wakka..
Yeah, I definitely think the cast did well given the context of their situation. Hell, I *love* James Arnold Taylor's work overall, especially his perfect Obi Wan! I suspect the voice direction is largely to blame, though even then I agree that Auron and Lulu stand out. Resonant Arc's recent series on FFX dove into some of the dev history and how surprised James Arnold Taylor was at some of the direction he was given. Speaking of that series, it really made me appreciate how cohesive the story is and how well it was delivered compared to FFVIII, which I love despite its frequent inability to convey important story beats effectively... Makes me think that if I can get over (or disable) the VA, then I'm in for a treat.
As for blitzball, you make a really compelling case because you just described *exactly* what happened to me! I hated that tutorial match and ended up just handing the controller to a friend that had already beaten it, haha! After that I tried maybe one or two matches but just wasn't invested. Now you have me genuinely curious... Thanks for the tips!
Another espectacular execution. Thanks to you.

Great work once again! Love listening to these. I end up getting your version stuck in my head! You've inspired me to remake a FF song!
Thank you so much 💖 ooh which FFX song?
@@Harpsibored I'm thinking FFV Fate in Haze. One of my favorite retro ones. If I try to remake a newer one it will just end up sounding worse 🤣
