Bahamut is a beast. Garnet is waifu. Vivi is adorable. Zidane story is the saddest, nicest, most hopefully hopeless ever. Beatrix is the very definition of unrelenting loyalty and power. This game will forever be one of if not THE best game ever made.
This is where the Melodies of Life song fully plays with lyrics, and now I am going to be picking apart the lyrics of the song itself: "Alone for a while I've been searching through the dark, For traces of the love you left inside my lonely heart. To weave by picking up the pieces that remain, Melodies of life-love's lost refrain." Again, this makes it really clear that Melodies of Life is a love song, for anyone who still tries to deny it. "Our paths they did cross, though I cannot say just why. We met, we laughed, we held on fast, and then we said goodbye. And who'll hear the echoes of stories never told? Let them ring out loud till they unfold." If by "laughed", you mean that only Zidane did while Garnet spent most of the game whining about her crazy mother and being bland and mopey to the point that she had a big wangsty mute moment, and by "held on fast" you mean that Garnet blew Zidane off the first chance she got when she drugged him in Disk 1 Lindblum and gave him the cold shoulder for most of the game. "In my dearest memories, I see you reaching out to me. Though you're gone, I still believe that you can call out my name." "A voice from the past, joining yours and mine. Adding up the layers of harmony. And so it goes, on and on. Melodies of life, To the sky beyond the flying birds-forever and beyond." "So far and away, see the bird as it flies by. Gliding through the shadows of the clouds up in the sky. I've laid my memories and dreams upon those wings. Leave them now and see what tomorrow brings." "In your dearest memories, do you remember loving me? Was it fate that brought us close and now leaves me behind?" These lyrics are describing a much better love story than the one we actually got.
amazing song, video & GAME!!!! My absolute favorite game of all time, I have a ps3 with 30-40 games and my favorite game is final fantasy 9 on the psn just so amazing I played the game so many times already, I even like better than final fantasy 8 which I thought was my favorite game until I played this game. Thank you so much for uploading this such great memories it brings =).
I've heard a lot of rumours about a FF9 remake recently and it's gotten me really excited. I really hope it's true because I think this game would be perfect with a reimagined combat system, one that is not so slow as the original. Still this game is probably my favourite in the series and it makes me feel really cozy and nostalgic.
That’s the Final Fantasy 1 opening theme! You can probably find more of it by looking up “Final Fantasy Main Theme”. If you want other orchestrations aside from that song, none from Final Fantasy come to mind, but Dragon Quest has a lot of symphonic suites that I love (but I have nostalgia bias, so you may reach a different conclusion) :3
After beating FF9 with my BF and hearing this song at the end made me want to cry. And I don't normally cry when i play games. But this one broke me. The satisfying ending knowing Zidane's backstory, the amazing payoff with his and Garnet's relationship. Seeing Vivi with his kids after all the crap he's been through, seeing Steiner finally bug off of Garnet after being annoying as hell throughout the whole game. It was just an amazing ending and i would play through FF9 again just to see it. Nothing can top it and hot take, 7 isn't the best FF on PS1. I gotta give it to 9. Fite me.
@L3irus I had the OST of Final Fantasy IX and there are two versions of this song (well three excluding the one with the japanese voices) and this is not a remix, it includes the credits parts that appeared through Final Fantasy VIII, IX and X.
our era games are more better in all aspect. Story telling and gameplay are far better than current game. We only lost the graphical aspect side only. the best era of video game is PS1 and PS2 after that is more generic and casual not heart touching anymore
pls square enix if u read my message pls dont remake this game IF u dont know the background of this game becouse we dont want our childhood memories being destroyed by your poor re imagination of this masterpiece. I gurantee ur new game design team not sure what this game is all about
The song, I really love it even many years past away!
It is not just childhood memories, I feel peace and love and a sense of adventure when listening to this song
Damn..... 23 July 2023 I watch it.
So much nostalgia about this game when I was just a student of university
5:43 Gamers, rise up for the National Anthem.
O man how much i love this game and this song :). So nostalgic

FF9をプレイした方々の代弁者のような、素晴らしいコメントです👍

Yes, this song is such a lovely masterpiece

Of course, it's true. They did FFXIV and FF7, so im confidently reckon they will make FF8 and 9.
Still the song of my life
This is the best video of world very nostalgic
this video must be one of top trending (at least for me)..
Where i can find another masterpiece like that 5:42????? 😭😭

This game shaped who I am so strongly it's very strange but I wouldn't have it any other way.
Beautiful!
ff has the best game music ever
Nobuo Uematsu is a musical genius!
As a person who jumped in on ff8....I'm adult enough to admit that this beat eyes on me
Over time I learned to love both, FF8 holds a special place in my memory being the first FF I played on the PS...
I love this song and the game i hope there is a film so i can watch coz i can't play❤
Like I said in the description, the video tries to match the original ending of the game, when you beat the final boss and the credits rolls...
I'm not crying, you're crying

Old Square was something else, I really liked a lot the character development of these old games
Nope, I'm totally not nostalgia crying right now.
I’m 5years behind you.
Yo 3 semanas uwu
2023❤❤❤❤ since im young 😢😢😢

This is asome
It's so sad that even tho I've never played this game, it has a better story than FF15
So play it then!
Amorzinho
Love this game. But its kind of dark when you consider the moons of gaia and terra merging...
5:43
4:00 ,4:16 cool game
ever best
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Cueca fedorenta não cara
I wonder if this will be filled with Aphmau fans...hmmmm...maybe
Im sexist for continuing the game 🤣🤦
Clearly Zidane's character arc flew right over your head if you think this
