The soundtrack dissonance from 0:16 - 0:45 is done so well. There are absolutely horrific things happening in this game, and the way the calming music is overlayed over these scenes makes for such an eerie juxtaposition. It feels simultaneously calming and hopeless.
i know 2 is a better game in generally every regard, but for some reason 1 is held closer to my heart, i just loved leo's development as a character, viola was such a great antagonist and the way her character's arc concludes is simply perfectly written and heart-wrenching, the game had such an amazing atmosphere and world(even though its essentially a colony from a gundam series) and generally the game just had a wow factor the first time a played it. NOW MAKE A ZOE3 BASTARDS!
Even though it's only been a year since I heard this last, I literally started crying from goosebumps from watching this today. I remember opening this game up on my PS2 years back just to hear this song play
you don't know how many times i let this intro replay before i even jumped into the game... so many fucking times... one of the best series konami ever published,and one of kojimas most underrated,and underloved...
I remember going to sleep early and waking up at 2 or 4 in the morning to play this game before getting ready to go to School. Metal Gear Solid 2 + 3 and Zone of the Enders were my best, most played games back in 2002 to 2008. This Intro is Gold.
black3chan Kojima is gone. Plus the Zoe HD Collection didn't sell quite well... so, unfortunately, it would be REALLY HARD to see Zoe 3. Also, Konami wants to abandond consoles to move on mobile gaming and apps...
god this game was amazing. i remember when i had the demo on those old school playstation demo disc. Then got the official release for the reason that it was awesome, not that it had a MGS2 demo (although that was awesome too). Having gotten the HD collection recently, the nostalgia hit me pretty hard because i remembered EVERYTHING about this game
Ironically, I was first introduced to this series by the HD collection on Xbox 360. After doing some research and finishing both games on the HD collection, I decided to pay my respects and buy both of the original PS2 discs. I still have the og's and HD to this day. :)
Still waking up with the image of me just evading dangers and hazards... And grasping her hand to only protect her... The video and lyrics combined translation is deeper than most things people struggle with in life... ❤❤❤
I loved this game as a child. It was my favourite mecha game, and my favourite Mecha series. I became skilled at the game, learning to dodge, block, grab and slash in the game. I beat the game on the highest difficulty as well. Now, when I play games, I simply just go for the hardest difficulty.
After hearing it btw... lyrics wise... 'You've got to stand up... Find you Utop...' Utopia... This is more legit than most currently bragged about anime... ide rather full scale assault from this on my TV screens...
I knew about a really good transcription years ago but can no longer find it. I used to sing this to myself while driving when I was going to college many moons ago. I think that translation was something like "You can't just stand there (something), the suffering."
I still remember the first time I played this free game that came with the MGS2 Demo I bought. As it turned out ZOE was a “pretty good” game! Thanks for the lyrics, now I actually understand the song.
takes me back, this game was a big impact on my childhood, taught me about man v machine, what made something have "life" and what it means to be human
I have this game for the PS2 back in about a year after it came out. I've played the demo version of the game, before getting the actual one. And I actually love it, and want more of it. The main reason for it is that, the game reminded me of Gundam. Since, I was in that phase at the time.
Back in 2001 I played the demo of this game I was 6 years old at the time, this was the first game I played that have blood in it! I never played the full game. But remember this opening of the game very well. Even-doh I only played the demo of this game!
This song always had a winter like feel to me:loving and calming yet at the end a hint of mystery and a sense of greatness.So glade this game is getting an HD remake along with a bonus demo of MGR.
Lyrics export: Beautiful dream, to la la. So easy. (So easy.) Streams of this night, to la la. All misty. (All misty.) (Ah~ Ah~ Ah) Full Smile, in this world, to come. You've got to stand up. Find your own truth, the supreme. Fantaria, tempesta, It's my odyssey. Go higher and wonder heart of labyrinth. Until I feel new dawn bloom on the silent sea. (Silent sea.) Sing, for me, your song. Angel heart. So many heart. Kiss me Sunlight. (Lia-a~) Fly to the dark, Set soul free, Hold me moonshine. (Mo-o-on light.) Until my rumbled hand leads to the end of night. (End of night.) Find me in your eyes. (Find me.) (Find me.) Air l'armour. (Find me.) Air l'armour. Air l'armour...
Amidst the stars alone... alone... The fire-haired samurai of my dreams, staring... staring... You can not see the self now To the sky above we would like to fly Fantaria, tempesta, it`s my Odessey Go higher, among the hearts of around the rings (moonlight...) Until I feel new dawn bloom on the silent sea (silent sea...) Sing for me your song (fly me...) Angel heart, so many heart, kiss me sunlights (light) Fly to the dark, set soul free, hold me moonshine! (moonlight...) Until my rumbled hand lead to the end of time, (end of night...) find me in your eyes... (fly me... fly me... fly me...) Air l'amore... Air l'amore... Air l'amore...
I keep listening to this song. >< Its so addictive haha. xD But honestly...I keep thinking I heard this song before I played the game...I mean, when I first played this game and heard this song, I kept thinking I heard this song before! Probably not but...the song still gives off that feeling that I did hear it before...
Lines I got as wrong and fixes: Beautiful dreams, tonight, love. Still for this night, tonight love. This life,In this world's Too cold. You’ve got to stand And fight your you-outh, the supreme I’ll fight for you, tempester, for the odyssey. Go higher among the heart of the longer lived. I feel awake, yet you don’t move, for the song I sing Symphony is all. I’m too impressed, so many hearts missed the Sunlight I'll go, run around, go and live until the end of night Find me in your heart.
Correct lyrics for the chorus part are... Fantasia, tempesta, it's my odyssey. Go higher, and wonder heart of labyrinth. Until I feel new dawn bloom on the silent sea. Sing for me your song... Angel heart, so many hurt, Kiss me sunlights. Fly to dark, set soul free, Hold me moonshine. Until my rumbled hands lead to the end of night (end of night) Find me in your eyes.
this song's real lyrics is really good. its pretty mysterious n vague to the meaning of the words in the song's theme. its pretty cryptic to figure out the meaning behind the whole song lol.
for many years, we fans tried to find the lyrics of this version of the song. There are any oficial lyrics, and later they released the japanese version...but I still have hope to come across with the lyrics by chance xD BTW, your lyrics are almost perfect. I think that some things aren't correct, but as I don't know the lyrics, I prefer not to talk (write in this situation)
I personally got into the game cause of the MGS2 Demo and Kojima himself was involved with the game. but after playing this games demo and hearing this OP i say what the hell,I'm getting this game MGS2 or not.Especially since the series are litteraterly the BEST MECHA GAME EVER!!!!
I will start to. man i´ve got to play this game again. It may be my 100th time maybe... The second version has been rare since 6 years back. I will get it soon. ;)
Everyone watching this. I love you we were all influenced by this game I think. I beat it in 22 hour benge. Never beat a game in a day except this one. I literally could not put it down.
i remember playing the demo and loved it but then i saw it at a game stor one time and i was holy SH** must get it haha i still hav eit to this day and i still love it. i have yet to play the second one though :p and i also had no idea that they where singing in english haha
MATT CHONG HD collection on PS3, I still have the PS2 version of this game ( never bought 2 nd Runner), but my PS2 broke and I sold my PS2 games except for this one ( the company based in Germany didn’t recognise its bar code you use to list the games you want to sell for cash ).
Fantasic intro and song, great memories of first owning a PS2, miss you old Konami.
lol this game is great even tho its 2 yrs older than me
Don't we all
Zone of The Enders: Intro - Kiss Me Sunlights [English] [Lyrics] [60fps] [Full HD]
th-cam.com/video/Na2zt9tqoDE/w-d-xo.html
Me too
Pride is Koanmi's sin, they were to prideful to trust in Kojima to carry them to greatest so they fired him.
The soundtrack dissonance from 0:16 - 0:45 is done so well. There are absolutely horrific things happening in this game, and the way the calming music is overlayed over these scenes makes for such an eerie juxtaposition. It feels simultaneously calming and hopeless.
This is not a game.
This is not a movie.
This is poetry.
Kojima is great.
It’s not the frame it’s the pilot.
Vic Viper
No, this is engrish.
love this song... still.
masterxeon1001 yup this one is one helluva song.... with feelz included 4 free!
masterxeon1001 it's my all time favorite songs ever
Daniel Moore nice to see some recent comments on this old game!

i know 2 is a better game in generally every regard, but for some reason 1 is held closer to my heart, i just loved leo's development as a character, viola was such a great antagonist and the way her character's arc concludes is simply perfectly written and heart-wrenching, the game had such an amazing atmosphere and world(even though its essentially a colony from a gundam series) and generally the game just had a wow factor the first time a played it.
NOW MAKE A ZOE3 BASTARDS!
this game felt so mysterious and strange compared to 2, I loved that about it
I really loved the tone of the first one compared to 2nd Runner.
jsh020 this game was wayyyyyy beyond it’s time dude
@@NEO_RKX In the age of reboots, remakes, and remasters? I don't think so.
sorry "jsh" but now that kojima is NO LONGER with konami, its more or less impossible considering that he no longer have the rights to the franchise!
I remember watching this trailer on OG IGN in .QOV format! waiting for it to buffer on 56k dial-up.
Even though it's only been a year since I heard this last, I literally started crying from goosebumps from watching this today. I remember opening this game up on my PS2 years back just to hear this song play
❤❤❤ love that, this game is so underrated in makes me angry 😠
you don't know how many times i let this intro replay before i even jumped into the game...
so many fucking times...
one of the best series konami ever published,and one of kojimas most underrated,and underloved...

Incredible. Also, you should get a Nobel prize in the category 'Lyrics Decypherer'. Respect.
so many memories, damn so many
AvengerSR Still can't get over the fact that I'm still demanding a 3rd one to quell my need to fight with JEHUTY!
black3chan Kojima is gone. Plus the Zoe HD Collection didn't sell quite well... so, unfortunately, it would be REALLY HARD to see Zoe 3. Also, Konami wants to abandond consoles to move on mobile gaming and apps...
Alas such a potentially good thing had to die before its true potential was reached. Indeed a very sad thing for us all in the gaming community :(
good things dies early I guess?
One of the only games that had me sit through the entire opening and loading screens because of the amazing soundtrack and intro :D
god this game was amazing. i remember when i had the demo on those old school playstation demo disc. Then got the official release for the reason that it was awesome, not that it had a MGS2 demo (although that was awesome too). Having gotten the HD collection recently, the nostalgia hit me pretty hard because i remembered EVERYTHING about this game
Exactly the same thing that happened to me lol
OMG ME TOO, i literally just got the HD mix and cannot wait to play it
They got a HD collection? I just played this on my old PS2 demo disk, the memories!
@Jessie Boutilier: Yes there is an HD collection for PS3 with trophies ( and they are hard) of both Zoe1 and 2.
Ironically, I was first introduced to this series by the HD collection on Xbox 360. After doing some research and finishing both games on the HD collection, I decided to pay my respects and buy both of the original PS2 discs. I still have the og's and HD to this day. :)
Still the greatest game ever made. I will die on this hill a thousand times over.
this intro brings back such nostalgia, VERY few games nowadays bring the feeling of nostalgia, miss the ps2 days
Still waking up with the image of me just evading dangers and hazards...
And grasping her hand to only protect her...
The video and lyrics combined translation is deeper than most things people struggle with in life...
❤❤❤
What's interesting is that this English version is NOT a translation of the Japanese song, the english verses are just different
This game brought so many memories
I actually remember crying while playing this 😂 no but it was sad af
I always come back to this every year or two. The only two game intros I like more than this one are Soul Blade for PS1 and Final Fantasy Tactics.
Yes I finally found this opening!!!! Memories :)
I loved this game as a child. It was my favourite mecha game, and my favourite Mecha series. I became skilled at the game, learning to dodge, block, grab and slash in the game. I beat the game on the highest difficulty as well. Now, when I play games, I simply just go for the hardest difficulty.
Ughhh this warms my heart so many memories 💝 thank you
30 next month, I remember playing this when I was 11. Time does fly and this being back childhood memories.
Best intro ever
Radium would loved this song of his passing away in 2167 and 2172
After hearing it btw... lyrics wise...
'You've got to stand up...
Find you Utop...'
Utopia...
This is more legit than most currently bragged about anime... ide rather full scale assault from this on my TV screens...
I knew about a really good transcription years ago but can no longer find it. I used to sing this to myself while driving when I was going to college many moons ago. I think that translation was something like "You can't just stand there (something), the suffering."
This digs into such a deep part of my memories 😂😂
I still remember the first time I played this free game that came with the MGS2 Demo I bought. As it turned out ZOE was a “pretty good” game! Thanks for the lyrics, now I actually understand the song.
Wow.Kiss Me Sunlight theme from Zone Of The Enders got me going. Get 3 in the mix,and put Leo as a main character while you're at it!
Been looking for this for YEARS! Forgot the name, ahh memories
takes me back, this game was a big impact on my childhood, taught me about man v machine, what made something have "life" and what it means to be human
ReaperRises Dude, same.
The falling mech scene of the opening still hits me.
This game makes me so nostalgic back when I was like 9 playing it on my cousin's demo disk for PS2, ahhh those were the days. XD
I have this game for the PS2 back in about a year after it came out. I've played the demo version of the game, before getting the actual one. And I actually love it, and want more of it. The main reason for it is that, the game reminded me of Gundam. Since, I was in that phase at the time.

I miss this game. Tears in my eyes remembering those ps2 days.
Lyrics export:
Beautiful dream, to la la. So easy. (So easy.)
Streams of this night, to la la. All misty. (All misty.)
(Ah~ Ah~ Ah)
Full Smile, in this world, to come.
You've got to stand up. Find your own truth, the supreme.
Fantaria, tempesta, It's my odyssey. Go higher and wonder heart of labyrinth. Until I feel new dawn bloom on the silent sea. (Silent sea.)
Sing, for me, your song.
Angel heart. So many heart. Kiss me Sunlight. (Lia-a~) Fly to the dark, Set soul free, Hold me moonshine. (Mo-o-on light.) Until my rumbled hand leads to the end of night. (End of night.)
Find me in your eyes. (Find me.) (Find me.)
Air l'armour. (Find me.)
Air l'armour.
Air l'armour...
Dazzle capture! Oldschool stuff done right.
I remeber getting this game, so many memories
I had ZOE1&2 about 10 years ago and its still in very good shape
I love this song a lot
Still remember being in awe of this intro,because this was my first introduction to a ps2... All because of mgs2... Thank you hideo kojima....
I always thought this was one of the greatest games in PS2, and the 2nd runner is a nice canonical sequel as well.
Amidst the stars
alone... alone...
The fire-haired samurai of my dreams,
staring... staring...
You can not see the self now
To the sky above
we would like to fly
Fantaria, tempesta, it`s my Odessey
Go higher, among the hearts
of around the rings (moonlight...)
Until I feel new dawn bloom
on the silent sea (silent sea...)
Sing for me your song (fly me...)
Angel heart, so many heart,
kiss me sunlights (light)
Fly to the dark, set soul free,
hold me moonshine! (moonlight...)
Until my rumbled hand lead
to the end of time, (end of night...)
find me in your eyes... (fly me... fly me... fly me...)
Air l'amore...
Air l'amore...
Air l'amore...
OMG ZONE OF THE ENDERS COLLECTION HD!!! cant wait for it!!!! ^^
This song is so amazing
Radium Lavans pleased 😃 of this song since A.D 2167 Z.O.E Idolo
When I first heard this as a kid I was completely hooked I still love it
I keep listening to this song. >< Its so addictive haha. xD
But honestly...I keep thinking I heard this song before I played the game...I mean, when I first played this game and heard this song, I kept thinking I heard this song before! Probably not but...the song still gives off that feeling that I did hear it before...
Great memories
Loved this song so much and good rhythm
I love the lyrics for this song they are great!
Lines I got as wrong and fixes:
Beautiful dreams, tonight, love.
Still for this night, tonight love.
This life,In this world's Too cold.
You’ve got to stand
And fight your you-outh, the supreme
I’ll fight for you, tempester, for the odyssey.
Go higher among the heart of the longer lived.
I feel awake, yet you don’t move, for the song I sing
Symphony is all.
I’m too impressed, so many hearts missed the Sunlight
I'll go, run around, go and live until the end of night
Find me in your heart.
This opening use to scare me as a kid
It's been another year back again. We need a new ZOE game!
almosr perfect quality , thanks for putting this video it makes me remember my childhood
I always lul when Jehuty's cockpit raises upwards when he flies into the sky :D
Part of my life , sound and everthing
I'm 31 I remember when I first played this I fell in love with this game
Correct lyrics for the chorus part are...
Fantasia, tempesta, it's my odyssey.
Go higher, and wonder heart of labyrinth.
Until I feel new dawn bloom on the silent sea.
Sing for me your song...
Angel heart, so many hurt, Kiss me sunlights.
Fly to dark, set soul free, Hold me moonshine.
Until my rumbled hands lead to the end of night (end of night)
Find me in your eyes.
hit me right in the feels
[######|##### | ]
Eugh!
(I tried to make a graphic, not great but)
this song's real lyrics is really good. its pretty mysterious n vague to the meaning of the words in the song's theme. its pretty cryptic to figure out the meaning behind the whole song lol.
this vid brings tears to my eyes...and i only had the demo!
Konami was doing shit like this... 20 YEARS AGO!!! FUCK KONAMI FOR LITERALLY SELLING OUT! 😑 Anyway. Happy Anniversary ZoE.
mained the shit out of this game moment I first found and played it. Music and everything still holds my heart
for many years, we fans tried to find the lyrics of this version of the song. There are any oficial lyrics, and later they released the japanese version...but I still have hope to come across with the lyrics by chance xD
BTW, your lyrics are almost perfect. I think that some things aren't correct, but as I don't know the lyrics, I prefer not to talk (write in this situation)
This make me cry.
I was just in a stunned silence when this first flashed across my TV.
This is still to this not my first PS2 game but still my favorite game today
i think it's
Angel heart. So many hurt. Kiss me Sunlight
not
Angel heart. So many heart. Kiss me Sunlight
idk tho
That is awesome! Im glad you chose this over DMC. I wouldve done the same and I definitely would not have regretted it either! :D
So heart warming
Bringing tears to my eyes in 2021.
Pretty good Japanese Engrish
First game will always be one of my personal favorites
Childhood memories 100%.
This is the only Gundam game/anime I ever enjoyed.
Thank you, PCSX2.
Waking up to play Zoe and Halo CE, miss those days
This song makes me want to blow up in space while piloting a mech
LOOOL i was thinking the exact same thing!!
I personally got into the game cause of the MGS2 Demo and Kojima himself was involved with the game. but after playing this games demo and hearing this OP i say what the hell,I'm getting this game MGS2 or not.Especially since the series are litteraterly the BEST MECHA GAME EVER!!!!
Didn't realize this video had a meta-game until I turned on the subtitles. xD
why is this game not on steam???
Not sure but the second game is
Awesome game
I REMEMBER THIS!!!
Good thing we got blessed with Daemon X Machina which provides combat similar to this gem
I will start to. man i´ve got to play this game again. It may be my 100th time maybe... The second version has been rare since 6 years back. I will get it soon. ;)
Everyone watching this. I love you we were all influenced by this game I think. I beat it in 22 hour benge. Never beat a game in a day except this one. I literally could not put it down.
I get nostalgic tears from the opening theme
Back in the day I would wake up and play Zoe and Halo ce
i remember playing the demo and loved it but then i saw it at a game stor one time and i was holy SH** must get it haha i still hav eit to this day and i still love it. i have yet to play the second one though :p and i also had no idea that they where singing in english haha
@link2x101 me too brother, the feeling is unberable. i lost the game and i'm looking forward to buy it again
I now regret selling my PS2 and this game
You scrub.
I have the game....my PS2 just died :(
I have the HD collection on Xbox 360. xD
But yeah, got the game on PS2 too.
Gamercoon don't worry the first gen PS3 fat plays ps2 games on there not the slim or super slim but only the fat ps3
MATT CHONG HD collection on PS3, I still have the PS2 version of this game ( never bought 2 nd Runner), but my PS2 broke and I sold my PS2 games except for this one ( the company based in Germany didn’t recognise its bar code you use to list the games you want to sell for cash ).
I couldnt agree more :D
My first ps2 game 🖤
i love this game
Im still playing this in 2023 ❤
this game and the fantastic music is something i want out of an original gundam game
