VOICES

Wednesday, January 24th, 2007

Got my copy of the ‘VOICES - music from Final Fantasy’ DVD today. Only watched it on my computer so far, but it looks well worth it. With 16 well played tracks of classic Final Fantasy tunes, and performances from RIKKI (”Suteki da ne” [FFX]), Angela Aki (”Eyes on Me” [FFVIII] and “Kiss me Good-Bye” [FFXII]), Emiko Shiratori (”Melodies of Life” [FFIX]), and Izumi Masuda (”Distant Worlds” [FFXI]). There is also an small acapella performance by the Mogleys, which is rather shocking at first, but is very funny. And to finish it all off, The Black Mages perform an awesome Advent Children version of One-Winged Angel from FFVII, twice!

Track Listing

  1. Tuning and Prelude
  2. Liberi Fatali from Final Fantasy VIII
  3. Fisherman’s Horizon from Final Fantasy VIII
  4. Song of Prayer from Final Fantasy X
  5. Suteki da ne (RIKKI) from Final Fantasy X
  6. Final Fantasy Doo-wop Medley (Mogleys)
  7. Melodies of Life (Emiko Shiratori) from Final Fantasy IX
  8. “Final Fantasy”
  9. Primavista Gakudan from Final Fantasy IX
  10. The Promised Land from Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children
  11. Distant Worlds (Izumi Masuda) from Final Fantasy XI
  12. Eyes on Me (Angela Aki) from Final Fantasy VIII
  13. Kiss me Good-Bye (Angela Aki) from Final Fantasy VIII
  14. “Maria and Draco” Opera from Final Fantasy VI
  15. Brass de Chocobo
  16. One-Winged Angel (The Black Mages) from Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children (encore x2)

If you are a Final Fantasy music fan, then I’d reccommend grabbing this DVD. The tracks played are a great selection of Final Fantasy tunes, and the performances from the singers, and Angela Aki’s version of “Eyes on Me” (originally sung by Faye Wong) are a must have. I picked up mine from Amazon Japan, but there seem to be plenty of sites that sell and import it around the world.

Nevermind

Thursday, January 18th, 2007

Nevermind about all that FFXI stuff, I don’t have the time, motivation, or knowledge to do such to be perfectly honest. I’ll think of something to fit into this boring little webspace, and might just post it within the next few months or so..
