LYRICS:
Through Life And Loss Gavin Dunne 2020
The streets spin shimmers
And the walls they curl
The grip of greed it reigns
There's just one track to lead this moving train
The price of progress is a dying world
The price of trust is pain
After the wrath a bitter shame
Look up
Into the night
Pillars uprisen
Bathe all in their light
Forward we run
Splinter the steel
Weaken the wheel
Through life and loss
Rivers of soul are drying
The heavy cost
Of halting the hands of time
Through life and loss
Tired eyes of home are crying
The heavy cost
Of moving outside the lines
Intertwined
Green glow will fade
The sky blocks out the sun
The city never sleeps
Bleeding the life out through these open wounds
The lengths we've gone to
And the things we've done
The sacrifices steep
Dark karma's flowers are in bloom
Look out
Out at the tears
Out at the faces we've frozen in fear
Forward we run
Darken the gleam
Break the machine
Through life and loss
The rivers of soul are drying
The heavy cost
Of halting the hands of time
Through life and loss
The tired eyes of home are crying
The heavy cost
Of moving outside the lines
Intertwined
Too much power
Hearts corrupted
Fates deflowered
Interrupted
Now
When we lose everything that defines us
Can we hold to the promise that binds us?
And carry on into tomorrow's sorrow
When we're facing the ghosts of our destinies
Will we turn or remain in the memories ?
Choose to lead or choose to follow sorrow
Through life and loss
The rivers of soul are drying
The heavy cost
Of halting the hands of time
Through life and loss
The tired eyes of home are crying
The heavy cost
Of moving outside the lines
Intertwined

What a theme!
Жду теперь песню по The last of us : part 2
Can't wait to hear it!
The soul of the planet approves.
This song hits me hard, but not because of the original idea behind the lyrics. My brother got so excited at any news of this remake, as FF7 was one of his favorite games, or perhaps even his favorite of all time. He'd call me up and tell me about everything, and make me look up trailers on TH-cam. He passed a year and a half ago, and never got to play the game he was most excited for. I can't help but think of him when I hear this.
I'm sorry for your loss of your brother. Wishing you healing & strength
Sending love to you 💜
God,i feel ssso much sorry for you,Ebon! I may don’t have a brother,but i wouldnt be able to bare the feeling of losing any of my family members....have alot of strenght and willpower and i wish you to stay strong!
...dude, have you thought of playing it in his place to ease your conscience?
I'd think that would help, I did something similar for my grandmother.
Maybe your brother find peace in the Lifestream
I... don't know how to put it into words, but how this song hits...
I'm not into Final Fantasy. Never had been. I recognize how big it is in gaming as a whole, but my feelings towards the song don't affect this. But... this song hits with what I can only describe as this mixture of sadness, and despair, and melancholy, but also hope, nostalgia, and determination. It has this raw emotion, especially at the end, that I can't recall any other song getting close to. The mixture of the instrumental and the BEAUTIFUL vocals, alongside the lyrics, makes this a masterpiece.
I honestly think this may be one of the best songs you've ever made. Kudos to you, Gavin. Kudos to you.
Thank you! And yeah these days I try to make sure the emotional core & themes of the song can be experienced by anyone, even with no knowledge of the games :)
dude I've listened to this all day and I'm crying everytime I stop to actually listen to the lyrics.
"When we lose everything that defines us
Can we hold to the promise that binds us
And carry on into tomorrow's sorrow."
That's just good poetry and can mean a lot for many people. It means a lot to me at least on many levels.
The more I listen the more I feel this was written for us all, for today and tomorrow personnaly and globally.
Best song of miracle of sound ever, and that guy wrote Into the Wild too!
I totally agree. I never had PS so never played any Final Fantasy but this song is in my head for last week and I have to play it at least twice everyday. It is brilliant.
@@miracleofsound in your Bioshock: burial at sea song, you tricked me into thinking there was a happy ending. It made the emotional beats all the stronger when I finally finished it. Thanks Gav.
I've only heard hints of the story of FF so as a result of this song I'm currently imagining a plot for it.
Honestly i wouldnt be able to explain my feelings this much towards this song and it’s lyrics and im honestly glad that you did explained it this perfectly and precisely!
I love the fact that when Gav says the lyric "After the wrath a bitter shame," he says 'wrath' in the way the last syllable of Sephiroth's name is said. Whether this is intentional or not, it is an incredible detail when paired with the scene of Sephiroth sparing Cloud that plays over it. Props to Gavin and the video team for including that, I love the attention to detail the Miracle of Sound gives to his works. Also, though I have never played Final Fantasy VII or its remake, this is my favorite of all of Miracle of Sound's songs. This, and its incredible sequel.
That feeling when Gav's videos make me more interested in a game then full set of all kinds of teasers, trailers, reviews etc. Nier Automata and Disco Elysium have been already added at my Steam whishlist, now Final Fantasy.
He is the reason I played Dishonored. Game companies should pay him :)
I know that feeling. For it was "Force of Nature" that convinced to finally get a PS4 so I can play "Horizon Zero Dawn".
Had seen some trailers and snippets of game footage here and there, but nothing was as convincing as that video.
It's weird, I can't imagine listening to Machine Hearts without having played the game. The song is so evocative of the game for me that I can't hear it without all the associations to feelings I had while playing.
To be entirely fair here this video contains 90% spoilers so would never get all this in promotional material. But having played it yeah its a bloody good avenue for looking back.
@@volken62 fortunately I wasn't very attentive watching the video, so spoilers doesn't matter)
It's honestly a little scary how you just keep getting better and better, considering you started out really good o_o
He sold his soul
@@mightytaco123 Perhaps...but to which side? =D
@@Malorn0 both, but neither side is aware of it.
For the light
@@mightytaco123 Impossible as Gav is Rock Jesus.
*"The price of progress is a dying world"*
For me, what makes 7 the best Final Fantasy is the thematic and lore, really speaks to me.
Chills all over, goddam, Gav!
Ff12, try it. It has deep lore and, while different, it’s theme is no less poignant.
*PLAY IT AGAIN*
But I just -
*PLAY IT AGAIN*
100% the whole -
*PLAY IT AGAIN!*
on _hardmode_...! -
*AGAIN!*
_sigh_ The song too?
*THE SONG TOO.*
DEW IT
Sounds like me when I discovered kingdom hearts 1
Kylo Ren: More! MORE!
I actually started playing the Remake because of this and "When Forever Comes".
Gav definitely used his Limit Break for this song 😏💚
PS: Frank, Martijn...what a mix, I can't...just, mixing sorcery at it's finest.
Blackheart...you NAILED the video! The scenes were beautifully perfect!
You made it a lot more easy and joyfull with some truly great takes! We already started working on the next one!
@@AudioFrank I can't wait! You're like a personal Guardian Force 😄
@@sharmsong i should quote you on the srudio website for that.
@@sharmsong Glad to be part of this
Man, this reminds me of like Aeryon's songs with how complex and densely packed the composition is. The journey you take us on throughout the song is an incredible one too, I loved every moment of it.
This whole song is seriously impressive, very well done!
It is a huge mix alright, has over 90 layers of sound! Frank at Hal 5 did a really good job of mixing it for me :)
Ayreon
It makes me very nostalgic and emotional, and I don't know why since I've haven't played FF7 nor the remake.
@@essex3777 I would definitely recommend playing the original if not the remake...
@@BaronSengir1008 I have no money, and i can't get a job right now, at least to without putting my life on the line.
These aren't tears, it's just a localized rain shower on my face
/casts Esuna
Nah, they are tears because it is that damned good.
That or your eyes are peeing!
...damn it sephiroth
-starts to do a Soun Tendo "Niagara Falls of Tears"- Sorry sniff, you were saying?
I never played the original, but this song makes me feel nostalgic
Eurogamer's playthrough (unfortunately interrupted by covid, but has been replaced by a remake playthrough) is *fantastic*, with one of the duo being an enormous fan of FF (and especially this one), and the other a complete noob at the beginning.
@@DrBrangar thanks! I'll check it out!
Funny. I played the original one not the remake, but the song is awfull for my ears.
Doesn't fit the spirit of the game at all. And I'll gladly dislike it :P
@@oxoConstantinEoxo uh, ok? Great for you, I guess?
Me2
My brother died in a work place accident recently and this was the processional music for his funeral on Saturday cremated in a FF7 coffin , it was completely him RIP little brother ❤️
Absolutely love how the melody is full of FFVII motifs all worked seamlessly into the song.
As someone who has never played a FF game but loved this song, I can say that no lyrics stood out as you would usually expect something like that to. Really shows off Gavin's skills to blend them in that seamlessly
I could only recognize the boss battle music being vaguely hinted at during the bridge. What’re the other ones?
God I hope this becomes the credits theme of the final installment of the FF7 remake (like thirty years from now)
Assuming Gavin makes a song for each installment, the final end credits should have a medley of all of them...
That'd actually would be the perfect way to go
When you're so early the thumbnail hasn't loaded
Yes! Please, keep working with Sharm, y'all sound great together!
Sharm is doing all of the vocals on Aerith's song :)
Level 11 is proving how addicted Gav is to FF7
He's going to break me one of these days with the amount of emotion he pours in to his lyrics, I don't know how he does it! Maybe he's got some hidden meteor strength songwriting materia up his sleeve...
I....im honestly speechless about this song.....not just because it’s midnight here where i live,but because this song sounds so nostalgic yet purely beautiful by its own unique ways....i was here since many many songs ago on your channel,listening every single of them as they all were very unique on their own ways,but this one beats all of them,because it feels so heartwarming but yet it gives you such little hints that make you feel a bit wrong....i...that’s what im saying! I cannot explain what my current reaction is for the song,but i love it alot as it is beautiful and it still hits in the heart deep inside! Another bravo and another amazing work on another song that you cannot describe without long sentences as it is that good!
One of my favorite things about Miracle of Sound is that he can do a song on something I haven't had any interest in and still blow me away. Now I kind of want to watch a lets play of this game (don't have a ps4)
Gav is a star like that. He made me pumped for ESO (and I still can't push myself past level 10 in it).
As for LP's I would highly recommend either Jesse Cox's, or Maximillian Dood. They both got good complete playthroughs.
And if you finish Max's playthrough, I would recommend following it up with the EasyAllies Spoiler Mode covering it. It is...quite a listen to afterwards.
Here waitin' for it to come out on pc ._.
Eurogamer's playthrough of both the original (sadly interrupted by covid, but they got to 90% or so) and the remake (ongoing, while they wait for the end of lockdown) is fantastic. Aiofe is a die hard FF7 fan, to the point that her twitter handle is literally @AiofeLockhart. Zoe was a complete noob, but is now 100% invested, and the two have such good chemistry.
God this song hit me too hard, I've been crying a few times today listening to it.
"When we lose everything that defines us
Can we hold to the promise that binds us
And carry on into tomorrow's sorrow.
When we're facing the ghosts of our destinies
Will we turn or remain in the memories ?
Choose to lead or choose to follow sorrow."
This part of the lyrics hit me the most because it reminds me of the darkest time of my life. I was only a couple semester away from graduating college, but one day I experienced the first biggest loss in my life. It completely shattered my entire life, my reason for studying and I fell into severe depression for a couple of years and fighting with the urge to end my life. I am extremely thankful to a few of my college professors who realized my grades were declining badly and I started to skip my classes, they approached me and tried to help. I am also eternally grateful for the friends I made online that helped me to get back up and move on. And most importantly, thank you for writing such an amazing song, Gav.
My GOD Gav. Jesus Christ. This song was *amazing* , I legitimately felt a lump in my throat by the end; and I dont even play Final Fantasy games!!
That was beautiful, thank you.
Some of the lyrical rhythms here remind me of Into the Wild.
YES, it's such a beautiful thing to remember tbh
Yesterday I couldn't get Liquid Nights and Disco Lights out of my head. Now I can't stop humming this after the first viewing. Props, Gav. Props.
Nice to hear you colab with Sharm again
This sounds extremely different from everything you did until now, and I absolutely love it! Thank you for doing god's work, Gav!
It's the perfect mix of tragic and uplifting. The original story was a tragedy, through-and-through. The original ending was the *bad* ending. But the differences in Remake has given me hope for the future, despite still being that same tragedy at the core. In short, you captured how I felt while playing perfectly, as usual. :)
Couldn't have said it better.
Everytime I watch this video or hear the song, I've got a bittersweet smile on my face.
When you never even played the original and have no hope of finding a re-release...
@@seand.g423 You can find the original online for PC, runs great.
It actually wasn't a bad ending though. People survived it (hence Advent Children) and technology simply shifted to that which didn't use the planet's soul as a power source.
@@Nempo13 People survived initially. Go a bit deeper into the lore, the damage was still too great, and humans are extinct 500 years after Advent Children. It's the bad ending because even 500 years later, the Planet still hasn't recovered and is struggling to regain it's balance
Really fits the feel of the game I think, good job.
Can't stop coming back to that one. One of my favorite songs by Gav.
Hi, dieser Song läuft bei mir täglich im Auto. Einfach Gänsehaut pur. Hab ich bei meiner Tochter entdeckt. Ich selber bin 58 Jahre alt, bin aber absoluter Fan von diesem Sound
This is just making the wait for a PC version pure torture.
But y'know what? Hot damn, this is a great song!
I feel you man. I feel you. I left the consoles a long time ago, but waiting for the exclusive to be port is terrible.
Gav, you're truely a miracle of sound. So many styles and voices. Especially the begining of this song killed me.
I love how you included bits of music from the game/series itself into this song (particularly the prelude)
"When we lose everything that defines us/Can we hold to the promise that binds us. . ."
Gah, I've lost track of how many times I've watched this, and that line makes me misty EVERY. FRELLING. TIME.
Tell me I'm not the only one.
Please?
It was the ghost of our destiny's that almost made me broke down into tears.
It's when these people become human
It hits hard
As an old Final Fantasy VII fan and cosplayer, I can say only one thing: this is beautiful. Thank you for such a wonderful song.
When you mentioned that there is going to be FF7 song I was waiting and waiting and it's finnaly here and I love it.
I love the effort you always put into this work, and I can feel the passion you and sharm have not only for your music but for the games the music is about. This one hits me hard because it comes from a game that means a lot to me, and I love it.
I don't even like final fantasy but i still watched and loved every bit of this because of your amazing skill
Love your songs dude
Can I just say that the Crystal Theme-inspired opening riff literally gave me chills? Because it DID.
Gavin you don't know me. Nor will you read this but...thank you. I needed a song like this today. I was numb and this at least made me cry, as stupid as that is.
Glad the song moved you :)
I had to cry watching this. FF7 Remake was such an important game to me. It reminds me of my childhood, when I used to have a PS1. Back on those days, I had an uncle who was 6 or 7 years older than me. We grew up on the same household, raised almost like brothers. He loved FF7, and I remember him completing it and watching as he played through the last boss fight. Sadly, he decided to take his own life in 2011. I remember when I first began seeing FF7 Remake being "leaked" and then advertised. As a grown man, I was able to afford a PS4, and one of the first games I bought was FF7 Remake. As I played it, I kept telling my wife how grateful I was for the sheer opportunity to play this game, and thinking to myself "I wish he knew how good it is to be alive, and all these amazing things the future had in store". Life's good, and life's short. Don't let it pass by you, and try not to lose yourselves. Everything will be alright, just keep hanging in there. Thank you Miracle of Sound for such an amazing song. Cheers from Brazil.
The way you've managed to weave in several different leitmotifs from Final Fantasy 7 is incredibly impressive.
It really makes me hope you'll do one on Final Fantasy 14, although that would be quite the time investment. However, I'm pretty sure you'd love the way that Soken (composer for FF14) similarly weaves multiple leitmotifs into his songs.
I start the video, see the first frame with Aerith and all the emotions coming back up. Damn that hits hard, even after all of these years. The lyrics are spot on, the tune reminds you of the old FF7 without sounding like a copy and the duet with Sharm is just beautiful. Thank you Gavin, looking forward to the Aerith song, despite the fact that it will tear me up even more then this one.
I missed this song on release. It turned up randomly on my screen. After about 30 seconds, i thought "sounds neat but not his best work". 5 minutes later i was in tears. That's all i have to say. Thanks you once more, Gavin.
Always nice to see you working with Sharm again Gav.
I didn't think it could be done but you made a song that tops Machine Hearts as my favourite. The use of instruments that call back to the actual game soundtrack just tops it for me
Yes! The part at 3:13 had me doing that silly crying laughing thing, soooo good!
Such a pleasure for sucha great game! This sound is moving and have so many different mood intertwined in it. Just Wow! Glad to be one of your patreon!!
This is perfect for FF7. Which is saying something considering how perfect the soundtrack is already.
Is it just me or is this song about balance in the world and the price we pay if we break it? I have never played a version of this game, but I've heard it's about a company bleeding the earth dry. If so, this might be considered a follow-up to Mother Earth. And I love how it also speaks of the balance within a group of friends and how much it costs to stay together when that balance is lost.
Anyway, I really love this song
Yes it is! It has heavy themes of environmentalism, and examining the costs of taking extreme measures - just like the game :)
Also, said company built a cannon that uses Earth's life force to fire. Yeaaah... They're by far the bad guys.
@@miracleofsound Guess I'm going to buy the PC port if one gets made ^^
@@TreespeakerOfTheLand The original is on steam and even to this day it is still worth playing. I am doing so now for the first time and as long as you can get over the graphics it's a really good game with an amazing skill system (materia)
@@TheAssirra Thank you! I like old school graphics anyway, so it sounds like a good idea :) And it's cheap as well ^^
I instantly fell in love with this song the first time I heard it. It's such a beautiful combination of two drastically different styles of music in my opinion. The lyrics and vocals are so emotional and uplifting at the same time. It's like you put ice and fire together and made it perfect! Way to go, guys!
This song is totally addictive for how much is gorgeous
Thanks Gavin for all the years of music. I I've loved every one (I think my playlist for your songs is at like 110). Amazing song as usual!
When I first heard it I wasn't sure I liked the song because it seemed a bit cheesy but then I couldn't stop smiling for some reason!
Honestly, I'd kill to learn more about the process of writing and composing this song. The lyrics are so meaningful and well-placed that I'm really interested in how they developed into the final version; they must have changed so much over time. It's not often that a song does that to me, but I guess that's Gavin for you.
Yep, this song is a masterpiece. I always get a feeling of Christmas from it too. I never played FF7 until the remake and this song just nails the vibe. It's magic. ❤
I always come back to this, it's in my opinion your best work. Just bloody fantastic.
I haven't even played Final Fantasy 7 (it's on the list!) and I'm here tearing up at 11am in the morning over this song what the hell
*Stands up, clapping* Incredible work, you two! Got a lil teary eyed, not gonna lie.
I don't know anthing about final fantasy , but my grandmother died last week and this makes me feel better, as does the song 'when forever comes' .
Thank you
Man, a Final Fantasy 7 music video. I feel like I'm on Kazaa!
This Song is absolutely amazing 👍🏻🥹 well done!
The best Song I‘ve heard in a very long time. Make me feel I‘m right into FF7, enjoying this great game.
Thanks! ♥️
This song feels completely different compared to your other ones, definitely becoming part of my top 10.
Whelp, time to put this on for the next 24 hours on repeat. Freaking gorgeous song.
Never played the game; however LOVED this song and almost FELT the characters :) Thanks, Gavin!
I only know about FFVII through the internet and fans talking about it, but wow this song makes me emotional as it is, so for people who actually played it and know the plot and stuff, I can't imagine how amazing it must be!
Seriously, such a beautiful song!
These songs always manage to get me invested in a game I barely know the title to! The coyote? with the wild hair is my favorite character and that is all I need to know about this game.
Just one thing:
FF7R isn't really a remake so much as it is a companion piece to the original FF7.
dude... you cant just... how?
this was amazing and gave me the feels, gav.
good job
Watching this video I kinda noticed; Cloud may be the protagonist & all but Tifa is like... Ms. Deus Ex Machina. Lol
In one "walkthrough" they said something along the lines of: Every character in the game specializes in something Cloud is basically Baby's first action RPG, Aerith is your Caster specialist, Big B your tank/healer and Tifa happens to specialize in killing things.
She can also suplex dragons, the most important thing of all.
@@joeavreg2254 But can she Suplex a train?
This Post was made by the Sabin gang.
@@tanith117 Raiden has entered the chat
@@morkalavin interesting how Barett reversed roles with Aerith, considering Baret slowly became the closest person in the party to become a black mage...
His Ultimate weapon suggested that to me, while Aerith was always the pure white mage
“The price of Progress is a dying world”
Never thought how relevant that would be today
I got goosebumps from the very first seconds. Amazing song!
Great song fit for final fantasy Gavin you guys did great work. And props to TH-cam for actually telling me when it was uploaded 👍
Please, Tifa`s song should be next :D Great job indeed, this is phenomenal job well done, I`m stunned :)
Even if i dont like this game, only this game because ff7 was very nice, Very Nice Work.
OMG, another majestic song from Gavin! And Sharm's voice...its so gentle...damn Gav, we love you! WE LOVE YOU!
🥺🥺this is the most beautiful song I've ever heard 💕
Oh my Goddess this is amazing. Please upload to Spotify soon. I want this in my ear all day.
Never been so early. Amazing song
I don´t even know what to say.. I clicked so fast, and will listen to this song really often.. well, no more words, just gonna listen again and again,... and again.. thanks Gav for your songs
Had chills the whole video, I swear, nobody can top the masterpieces you put out! Makes me wanna go replay 7 again...
Wow, you realy nailed the Final Fantasy chord progression!
Yesss I've been waiting for it since I listend to it for the first time on patreon and I absolutely fell in love with it.. Been listenig to it everyday since 😊
Okay. If you weren’t my hero before, you are now. Thanks for making a song for my favorite game of ALL time. Well, favorite RPG, at least.
Holy Hell! I listened to this song on release, and it was great. Heard it today, just 4 seconds, and it all came flooding back even though I only listened to it once, and it hit such a powerful chord, of hope and strength and meloncholy, it's unexplainable everything this made me feel. You guys are just... No words guys, I got no words.
Didn't expect to like the song much because I'm not a Final Fantasy fan.. BUT HOT DAMN GAVIN IT'S AWESOME
Why are you so consistently good at this?
Well, he has had quite a few years to perfect his art...
This is one of your best works, which is saying something. It's a perfect illustration of establishing and subverting expectation.
This song has become one of my favorites! It made me cry. 10/10 Thank you, Gavin and Sharm) 😢
It's beautiful
With love from Russia
Wow. How do you keep one-upping my favorite songs that you have done (which are among my favorites of all time)?
About ten years (iirc) and you still do it.
I'm not crying. I just got a bit of lifestream in my eye...
Completely different style than I expected and I love it
So beautiful and awesome.
SO GOOD!
RAWWWWKKK! Great song, Gav and Sharm!
This song was released on a very bad day of mine, and it brought a little joy to me. Since then I've listened to it quite a few times, and it's become a special little something that lifts my spirits and brings a little calm and joy when nothing else will. Thanks for this, Gavin, Sharm, and everyone else who worked on this wonderful song and video.
A return to form. Lovely.
I knew it, I knew you will make a music on ff7 !
Thanks !!!!! It's beautiful !
Love it!
I love this. Gav has always been good at adapting the sound of a game into his music but something about hearing Uematsu's motifs melded into this that is beyond amazing to listen to and hits just the right place
Absolutely beautiful. I seriously cannot think of another word to describe this other than masterpiece. Keep it up Gav!
Dang this is gorgeous
Simply beautiful
