i was listening to the original!! and then in the back of my mind i remember this cover!! and i had to come back to look for it!! but i forgot who it was covered by!! then i remembered!! kate the great!!! D: this cover really left an impression into the corner of my mind and it brought me back here today! and it sure does feel nice to hear kate again :D
I AM Kate Covington ^w^;; This is my youtube channel and has been for 5 years, ^w^; No worries about the confusion though! I don't like to go by my real name, but by my youtube name or by Erutan. The lyrics are not by me, but by my friend, who used to be SacridiaDarque here on youtube, but now is under the YT name daargit :) Hope that clears things up!
I've been following you since this song came out, and still love to listen to the classics. I'm so glad that this video is still up even though you have a new account. This song is still hauntingly beautiful and pops into my head from time to time. :)
OMG I love this song,the original version is beautiful but this one,with the lyrics that have been added,brought a lump to my throat and a tear to my eye.Katethegreat 19 you have a phenomonal voice,really amazing,and TaoJenChan your lyrics simply blew me away.All I can say is Thank you.
I'm not a sap, so it's hard for me to get all choked up (some people say I'm heartless when I don't cry at movies!) But now there is only two things that make me tear up: 1- The film, "Up" 2- This masterpiece It means a lot that your voice has the capacity to inspire such emotion. Never quit what you're doing. Please :) Your talent is too amazing to go unnoticed or unpracticed!
One of your more simple arrangements, for sure, but one of the best, also. I really like the vocal harmonies near the end. Harmonies on "Don't let this end" (paired with the instrumentation pausing) are sooo soooo killer. Same with "cruel mountain range". Just such good harmonies that I would have never thought of and that lend themselves to the feel of the song, too.
I have heard this song I don't know how many times, and each and every time it just gets to me.. goosebumps and tears swell to my eyes.. especially these days.. my little niece got rushed to the hospital and the doctors are fighting for her every second.. she's only 5 and they don't weather or not she will be okay :'( life isn't fair at all, but Kates beautiful voice brings calm to the raging storm of my heart.. beautiful work yet again ^_^
O my god.... that was unbelievable This song is beautiful.... simply beautiful Your voice is so calming... so soothing The Lyrics were sad, yet at the same time very beautiful It's haunting, but in a beautifully good way This is honestly one of the most beautiful things I've heard on youtube
I've only ever heard 2 singers done justice to the beauty of this song. Rikki, the original singer and you. Thanks for showing love for this song, FFX is my all time favorite game.
The piano arpeggio is so beautiful.. Love it, while the original song has violin for it's signature, this arrangement has piano for it's power and your voice for it's life
I heard this when i was fresh out of the navy, back in late 09. I was having such a hard time transitioning back into civilian life. I hit some really dark places really fast. Your songs saved me. Gave me peace when i was loseing my mind. Thank you Katethegreat19/Erutan
Not only a marker of my childhood, by this version of the song itself is a marker of a huge part of my life. I am reminded of everything that has happened from when I was 11 till now. Memories, emotions, people, life, and this song connects me again to it all. Thank you
All her music makes me cry. I’ve been needing someone in my life for a long time lol. Katethegreat19 makes the best music to these games. Very emotional.
Beautiful, beautiful, BEAUTIFUL! The lyricist wrote a lovely song, and picked an excellent voice for her lyrics. You're so talented, and I can't thank you enough for sharing your talent with all of us here! *hugs*
I started a new play of the game since many years. I remembered your angel voice and came back to listen to your masterpieces again and again. You have so much talent and sense of music. I wish you the best and that one day, maybe, you can sing again.
These lyrics are beautiful, thank you TaoJenChan. This music and singing is beautiful too, thank you katethegreat. I tried listening to this while watching the ending muted... and this fits the mood of the end of FFX so well... so much love and despair at once. it's horrifying, and yet it's very beautiful and such a powerful testament on reality... "The people and the friends that we have lost, or dreams that have faded... never forget them."
This song is simply amazing. Not only is this the best English version of this song that I've ever heard, it actually made me shed a few tears. Of course, I'm sure this has been said a few times by now.
Oh. My. God. You have the most angelic voice I've ever heard. Seriously. I nearly cried when I heard this. The lyrics are genius (MAJOR Kudos to your friend), and with your voice matched to it...it's a pure masterpiece. Definitely deserves to be shared with the whole world. ^_^
Your voice is so unbelievably beautiful and pure, it gave me goosebumps. The lyrics are beautiful, too - my props to the lyricist. Soo, soo beautiful, I can't even describe it!
So beautiful! It's excellent music complemented very well by your excellent voice. So far, none of the lyric-filled versions of this song has failed to impress me.
You have enchanted me with this song. Memories I believed to be dead were resurrected, such a bittersweet feeling. Almost every single word accounts for my case too. You have once again shown me the sheer power music holds and may I nevermore forget that. Thank you.
I heard this song the first time when I was still a child, the voice touched me deeply and the lyrics were just amazing I fell in love With this version I searched a lot for its maker and singer but I couldn't find it anywhere, now after 10 years of loving this song, I Finally knew who sang it and wrote it by pure coincidence , and I am very proud that it is you Erutan, i will always cheer for you.
unbelievable!! I just can't help myself when I here your voice. so sweet, tender, soft....... like an angel is singing. words can't express how great is it. You are going to be a shining star.
I was going through the cycles of Suteki Da Ne yet again from all language and I thought of Kate the Great I have always loved this verison/cover its beautiful
I don't think i'm in love lol... If you melt everytime you hear someone sing, I think that's a sign! :) I love you erutan! Im trying to get more and more people to listen to you! Fan 4 life!
*touched to the soul* I thought the song was more of a love story until I read the true lyrics, and you seriously make the songs that more moving and meaningful. Almost crying here... sorry... well done!
Once again, you have another song that haunts me with it's beauty when I'm not listening to it. You are by far my most favorite solo artist (yes, that's including the 'famous' ones out there) and I don't think I've ever been so consecutively moved by varying other songs by any artist. Thank you for this and every other song that has nearly brought me to tears. You sing like an angel.
this is probably the best cover of suteki da ne i've ever seen. i love this song so much, you just made it better. your voice suits these kind of songs so much, you can feel all the emotion while listening to your songs. keep up the good work ^__^
all i know is that everytime i hear this song my heart which lost its emotion due to a tough life stirs when i hear this song and your voice, thank you and please never stop.
Incredible. I'm actually gonna put this on a CD for my car! Congratulations on being the first person to have a song on any CD of mine that's not from an original! =D
This is amazing. I once thought that you couldn't sing this song in English and have it sound just as great as the Japanese or Spanish versions...... thanks. This made my day.
this is 1 of my favourite songs, i didnt know what it was called and now u've just given it to me with the best lyrics ever! is so grateful thank you! (im a huge FF Fan 2 :P)
In my oponion your interpretation of this song was both bueatifully executed and imaginative. plus this is one of the songs I listen to most often (origional version) but your version is just so heartfelt I can just feel the waves of emotion emenating from your pure vioce, yet again you prove that I can still experience emotion. Thank you for continuing to preform, thank you so much.
Thank you so much for doing this! You have an absolutely beautiful voice, and this is simply an amazing composition. I just couldn't leave the page without leaving you a comment.
As for the praise, your musical style is very unique, in a way, haunting yet soothing all at once. This is a fantastic instrumental cover: creative and lovely.
Stunning vocals , voice of an angel , straight to the heart , i am so happy to have found this site , thank you Angel for this Gift , Jack !!!!!!!!!!!!!
i am in love with this song. It is so beautiful, and full of meaning. I listen to it over and over, and sometimes sing along. Thank you to much! Your amazing.
oh my god! you are like a singing goddess. you sing so much better than anyone i have ever known. that touched my heart and i was close to crying for the first time to a simple song.
Unbelievable. I was so moved with emotion. I wept profoundly. This beautiful rendition brought back so many warm memories. I don't know a soul alive who would not want to experience the love between Yuna & Tidus portrayed so eloquently in this amazing RPG. Thank you for sharing your unbelievable talent.
;w; I cried too... I'm such a fan of your voice and the incredible songs you do. Your arrangements and the lyrics that accompany them go far beyond covers.
One of the most wonderful voices I have ever heard! The lyrics do suit the FFX love story, and this song makes a great tribute to one of the best games ever.
I just wanted to say that you have a beautiful voice, and your arrangements are amazing. Your version of this song is one of my favorite songs to listen to right now. (:
Holy Cow!!!! You have a VERY beautiful voice. I'm so speechless right now... I thought it was the original version at first. Then, I read your description, and I was like O_O!!!! How are you not a singer?
This is one of my favorite songs, and every time I listen to your "version of it" ,it makes tears in my eyes. You sing so amazingly beautifully... *speechless again, crying & blinded by your awesomeness* ^^
@katethegreat19 This is just... The best I have ever heard. I seriously think you are the definition of musical talent. You actually play this many instrument this good? And your voice.. oh my God. Amazing work, keep it up.
Oh ok, I was confused about the author. I already knew that the lyrics aren't a translation of the original. Thanks for the info! Keep doing whatever you're doing because I love your work.
Through this whole song i can hold back my tears..until the very end...The last line " I'll see you soon" wrenches at my heart and I cant help but cry a little bit. So lovely. . Thank you so much to you TaoJenChan for creating somthing so beautiful and hearttouching

OMG! nearly 12 years since I first heard this. It's been a long time and I still find this beautiful and haunting. This always makes me want to cry.
i was listening to the original!! and then in the back of my mind i remember this cover!! and i had to come back to look for it!! but i forgot who it was covered by!! then i remembered!! kate the great!!!

I like Erutan

Been a long time. I haven't listened to this in many years, but it's been haunting my mind for two days.
Your voice is beautiful.
12-13 years on and im still inlove with this song and your lyrics
I wish this was on Tidal :'( Best rendition of this song ever, beautifully sung, so enchanting...
2020 and still listening to this...12 years... thanks a lot
2023 and im here listening this masterpiece that i think it would be far better if SquareEnix called erutan to some ff musics officially
I'm not a sap, so it's hard for me to get all choked up (some people say I'm heartless when I don't cry at movies!)
But now there is only two things that make me tear up:
1- The film, "Up"
2- This masterpiece
It means a lot that your voice has the capacity to inspire such emotion. Never quit what you're doing. Please :) Your talent is too amazing to go unnoticed or unpracticed!
One of your more simple arrangements, for sure, but one of the best, also. I really like the vocal harmonies near the end. Harmonies on "Don't let this end" (paired with the instrumentation pausing) are sooo soooo killer. Same with "cruel mountain range". Just such good harmonies that I would have never thought of and that lend themselves to the feel of the song, too.
I'm so glad you added this to Tidal... ugh my eyes are leaking what is this strange phenomenon
This sounds amazing!
You should cover "Eyes on Me" from Final Fantasy VIII. That song matches your voice perfectly i think.
I have heard this song I don't know how many times, and each and every time it just gets to me.. goosebumps and tears swell to my eyes.. especially these days.. my little niece got rushed to the hospital and the doctors are fighting for her every second.. she's only 5 and they don't weather or not she will be okay :'( life isn't fair at all, but Kates beautiful voice brings calm to the raging storm of my heart.. beautiful work yet again ^_^
pure happiness for the ears, for the heart, for the spirit and the soul. thank you, miss Erutan! :)
O my god.... that was unbelievable
This song is beautiful.... simply beautiful
Your voice is so calming... so soothing
The Lyrics were sad, yet at the same time very beautiful
It's haunting, but in a beautifully good way
This is honestly one of the most beautiful things I've heard on youtube
Eight years and this song reduces me to ears every time.
+Devin Williams as true as the sentiment is, you might want to reread your comment
Andrew Coldham ...god dammit,auto correct.
I've only ever heard 2 singers done justice to the beauty of this song.
Rikki, the original singer and you.
Thanks for showing love for this song, FFX is my all time favorite game.
The piano arpeggio is so beautiful.. Love it, while the original song has violin for it's signature, this arrangement has piano for it's power and your voice for it's life
I heard this when i was fresh out of the navy, back in late 09. I was having such a hard time transitioning back into civilian life. I hit some really dark places really fast. Your songs saved me. Gave me peace when i was loseing my mind. Thank you Katethegreat19/Erutan
The people who dislike this are fiends!
How can anyone hate this, it's Suteki Da Ne!?
No, they just wanted to download the music and thought it's the download button.
Exactly, and they ruined it
@@HamZa-mm2im Lol
Not only a marker of my childhood, by this version of the song itself is a marker of a huge part of my life. I am reminded of everything that has happened from when I was 11 till now. Memories, emotions, people, life, and this song connects me again to it all. Thank you
This brings back memories of much simpler times. Better times.
The lyrics and voice brought tears to my eyes. A very emotional performance, I loved it.
Well done to both lyricist and singer.
I'm crying. lol final fantasy X is one of my all time favorite games. This is beautiful.
All her music makes me cry. I’ve been needing someone in my life for a long time lol. Katethegreat19 makes the best music to these games. Very emotional.
Beautiful, beautiful, BEAUTIFUL! The lyricist wrote a lovely song, and picked an excellent voice for her lyrics. You're so talented, and I can't thank you enough for sharing your talent with all of us here!

my oh my..you're voice is like a lullaby that puts me to sleep...woooow,,i really do admire you. you're better than me! XD
This song just rips me apart. The lyrics are so sad, and kate's voice renders me absolutely powerless. Bravo.
It's the 20th anniversary of Final Fantasy X and i obliged to come back to this masterpiece .
Cheers to Erutan and FFX fans everywhere .
oh my god.....that is the best version i have ever heard. You sing so beautiful that it's sad. this was beautiful. keep up the good work
This is really great, excellent job!!!
Hello Caitlin >w
How do you manage to leave me in tears with every single song of you? :( Great job again.
This should absolutely be a new ending theme for the HD version. X3
I started a new play of the game since many years. I remembered your angel voice and came back to listen to your masterpieces again and again. You have so much talent and sense of music. I wish you the best and that one day, maybe, you can sing again.
This song reminds me of my childhood, when i used to play final fantasy games
Best cover I've ever heard! My friend and I have been searching for a song that we can sing in front of the school, and you just gave it to us
I-I'm not crying..... you're crying!!
No I'm not! Y-You are!
Definitely one of the best self written and sung lyrics I've heard on this site. 5/5
I love you, too, loving, disembodied voice!
RebeccaETripp Oh! Hello, Rebecca. ^_^ Fancy seeing you here!
I see we're both fans of Kate. :)
Fantastic! This is one of my favourite songs! Great vocals :) and thank you to SacridiaDarque for the lyrics, they are beautiful!
Could someone tell me if there's a version of this song without the whispering part at the chorus? Thanks in advance!
These lyrics are beautiful, thank you TaoJenChan. This music and singing is beautiful too, thank you katethegreat. I tried listening to this while watching the ending muted... and this fits the mood of the end of FFX so well... so much love and despair at once. it's horrifying, and yet it's very beautiful and such a powerful testament on reality... "The people and the friends that we have lost, or dreams that have faded... never forget them."
Please Please create a your version Eyes on me.
This song is simply amazing. Not only is this the best English version of this song that I've ever heard, it actually made me shed a few tears. Of course, I'm sure this has been said a few times by now.

Has a nice (Romeo and Juliet)-ish theme to it
Your voice is so unbelievably beautiful and pure, it gave me goosebumps. The lyrics are beautiful, too - my props to the lyricist. Soo, soo beautiful, I can't even describe it!
This is too beautiful. I' m going to cry. Yuna is my favourite girl character. She is unique
