- A vocal, violin, guitar and orchestra cover of "Song of Mana" from the classic Playstation 1 RPG, Legend of Mana by Squaresoft (now Square Enix).
This is a song near and dear to my heart. I played and enjoyed Legend of Mana back when I was a kid. It was a golden age of JRPGs for the Playstation One and although it did not reach the heights of Final Fantasy and Dragon Quest, Legend of Mana is still fondly remembered by those who played it and that reason is mainly because of Yoko Shimomura's wonderful music. I can't even remember what the game's story is all about.
My multi-talented and awesome friend Julia studied how to sing in another language (Swedish) so we can perform this together! We've been planning this collaboration for some months now and it's so satisfying finally seeing this come to fruition! Subscribe to her! goo.gl/uL9k6F

Thanks so much for having me! This song is so beautiful and I was so glad to learn a bit about Swedish pronunciation 😁
Your voice is beautiful!!!
Thank you too Julia! Thank you for sharing your time, talent and super cool effort to learn Swedish singing! You are the coolest fellow pizza lover that I've ever met! Here's to more collabs and pizza hang outs in the future!
Julia Henderson I watched your recent NieR cover and I thought to myself: "Damn, it would be really cool if she did Song of Mana". And then this showed up. And it's awesome. Thank you both so much for this =D
sweden approves, very nice pronunciations! i think it was the lady from Rednex who sang this orignally :P perfect cover!
You were amazing
I really like listening to you while you're singing
please keep going
I'm a simple man
I see Legend of Mana, I press like
Same.
Resa Yogya same, now I gotta bust out my disc again.
Resa Yogya hahaha
AHAHh.I TOOOOO MAN!I AM SAME
You did it right Bob :)
She nailed those vocals. I'm so happy that people cover LoM. Most under rated and under appreciated game.
Except for those that know it. It's kept close to the heart.
To hear a Swedish song in a Japanese video game, and then hearing a non-Swedish speak cover it! So cool. :D Your pronunciation was great!
I agree, I'm beyond impressed. My expectations about the pronunciations were low but this is really good! Swedish is tough to pronounce :')
I grew up with Legend of Mana, seeing this done perfectly brings a tear to my eye... thank you for doing this.
Jason Olmsted me too :')
これほど魂を込めた歌唱に出会ったのは久しぶりです!熱いものがこみ上げてきました。juliaさん感動をありがとう!
OMFG YESSSSSSSSSSS!! SOME PEOPLE DO KNOW THIS GAME!
Indeed.
BandageBotMaster 5605 these game itself is a miralce dude, bring your imagination to peace, press like if you agree

Count 1 more with me 🙂
This song brings so much emotion out. It's a reminder of my childhood and when times were easy and carefree. Thank you for covering this.
By the way, Julia's voice is absolutely mesmerizing. Kudos to both of you!
This song gives me so much nostalgia and this cover brought a tear to my eye. Thanks for the feels.
Sometimes it's necessary to remember that there was a time where real beauty and great music existed in our increasingly ugly, violent and paranoid world. There's something primal and simple in the Mana series, and you captured that.
Essa musica é magica, linda voz, lindo video, joguei muito o legend of mana uns dos melhores rpgs do ps1
RPG antigo tinha musica boa, mas essa realmentre é do caralho
I am blown away by this cover! you guys have too much talent! this is definitively the best cover of this song! why is it so good?!
gawd this is such an amazing language and song ..... so deep in love with it !
Thank you so so so much for this awesome cover! Love it! Arigato
That was beautiful! Again, you cover a song from a game I've not played, only to pique my interest in yet another OST. Swedish is one of my favorite singing languages, and this song sounds amazing with it. Julia's voice was excellent too!
I really love this game
Oh my god. This is the most epic version of the Song of Mana. It has been my favorite song from the Legend of Mana. It still is!
How I missed that song and playing that game! I don't understand a word of sweedish but that song pulls at all the strings of my heart. Thank you! Great job, guys! 💖
So, I gotta say. This is easily one of my most favorite games I've ever played, and represents a lot of feelings for me.
When they remade it a few months back, I was absolutely ecstatic. But nothing prepared me for the truck-like slam of feelings that the main theme hit me with when I started it up again after having popped it open...
And tonight, while I was doing schoolwork, I just thought "Hell, why not put some music on." and got to thinking of the LoM OST. So, I tossed about for a few good covers, wanting to hear some modern renditions of the music... And came upon this.
I don't know what else to say, but thank you for making this. It still puts a weight on my heart that this game did, a feeling of nostalgia, of all the things I felt playing this game, all the wonderful little stories it held, and what this song represented to me both at the time, and how I felt listening to it now.
I dunno what more to say, but thank you for putting this out there, to both you and Julia, for making this. I hope y'all have a wonderful day.
I'm so happy right now! I'm looking for someone singing this song for a long time now! It's just so good to hear another version of this amazing song. I hope someday the Square make a remake of this game. Such a wonderfull game, with amazing artstyle and awesome sound track! Some of the histories told by this game made me cry! In nove with this video!
LoM and Chrono Cross are some of my all time favorite games. Love all of the covers but the amazing vocals on this really makes this that much more impressive!
I always loved this song I heard it first on some iTunes Radio channel and I taped it but then I couldn't remember what it was from. But still, Legend of Mana sounded so familiar...beautifully done!
I loved this! I never played or even heard of the game and you both sold me on it! Nice Swedish too :DD
Please play it! Remaster coming very soon!
I thought I would never find a cover of this song. I wasn't expecting a cover with such quality. Congratulations!!
This is my favorite game of all time, I replay it almost every year, and the soundtrack is amazing. You two made a beautiful cover of this song. I'd love to hear your take on some other songs from the game, especially Hometown Domina.
The barrel in my soul is now filled with happiness.

Your voice is amazing! I started to cry, when you started singing. Is a beautiful and nostalgic song for me
This song sounds so majestic.
Man, you two are making me want to go back and play this game again. It's been so long, I'd almost forgotten about it. Fantastic job!
Remastered version coming soon!
Great collab on this wonderful song from an underrated OST.
The alchemy between you 2 worked so well, good job =)
Thanks dude!
As a norwegian, hearing Julia sing in swedish is so weird, haha. Loved it!
Amazing!!! This song remains dear to my heart and I am so so happy you have done this arrangement! Really beautiful and faithful to the original. I'll say it again just inspiring thank you!
I heard
A nostalgic song
somewhere far away
It stirred deep within my heart,
A young strength
Spoke of the song of life
I am born from you,
And I returned
Embedded in a song, both kind and cruel
My life took a turn
I am born anew
Hurrying, to be close to you
Again and again, I long for you
I am hurrying to be with you
Again and again, I long for you
My longing is no diamond
(Just a small crystal)
A grain of sand in the desert,
One drop in the ocean
But with pride, I come
Seasons come and go
And I follow the same tracks
All I want is to sleep,
Embraced in your song
All I want is to wait,
Curl up in a dream
I am following my longing for you
Sitting, riding on a wind,
Your song echoing far
Thrown by waves, I am surging towards you
Young energy (A nostalgic song)
I'm keeping your smile so close to my heart
And I continue my journey
The time is short, and I must hurry
Thought that I was free,
Free from the past
But many-colored memories
Blooming deep inside of me
Finally, finally I reach you
Hear my truth and behold my dream
My beautiful dream
Seasons come and go
And I follow the same tracks
Thought that I was free,
Free from the past
But many-colored memories
Blooming deep inside of me
Finally, finally
I reach
I've seen Julia around, but I haven't listened to much of her material. This made me realize what a mistake that was, she has an amazing voice.
Metal Lix Thank youuuuuu!
beautiful!!!
この曲は好きで良く聞いてるけど本当に美しい歌声です、ありがとう!!!
a real underrated gem from the JRPG genre. So glad to hear it getting the attention it desperately deserves.
The Geigerdome I wouldn’t say underrated. I liked this game but it had some SERIOUS problems, and I can understand why this game didn’t do so well.
Yuuutooooubeee Why do show me this now why do you keep hiding these beautiful masterpieces from me. It's lovely and beautiful and it brought me to my childhood days playing this game and not skipping the opening thank you it made me shed a tear.
Wow, such a strong voice. Awesome cover of one of the best songs ever.
I can't believe myself. Why have I not seen this yet? This is beautiful, also a legend of mana fan.
Thank you, it's truly amazing! Absolutely beautiful!

+LadyGameLyric YESSS!
Thank youuuuu!!
Congratulations on your 300th video upload, SPG!
Thanks! 356th upload actually. I've been privating/unlisting old videos that don't represent what my channel has become anymore.
I've actually been considering doing that with some of my videos too, but then people won't be able to see where I've come from.
Believe me, no one wants to see "My trip to the mall" in my channel.
Ahhh this is so amazing!! I love it when artists cover the Mana series!! Do you think you could do something from Terranigma? That would really make my day. :D
what the hell, this sounds even better than the original! great work!
UUUU AREEE BEAUTIFUL THANKS FOR THIS!!!!!
Fantastic
