I walked down the aisle to this song 2 years ago this past Wednesday... thank you for such a beautiful song for our wedding day 💕
Goals
Congratulations on your wedding 🎉
That's nice..
😭😭😭😭 that sounds so beautiful
🥺🥺 why did that make my eyes water, thats beautiful
My wife to be is walking down the aisle to this song in 4 days. To say my heart is full of excitement, nerves, joy and contentment is an understatement 👌🏼💙
Ooo how was the wedding?
@@NinersGang-px8jr It was absolutely amazing. Best day of our lives so far :)
Late to the party but congrats dude!
@@SamYungOfficial Thank you! Much appreciated! Married 3 weeks now 🤣
@@SamYungOfficial P.s.. you've just made my wife's day 🙈
crazy to imagine kingdom hearts would've never happened if Nomura didn't pitch the idea to the Disney executive in an elevator
I suppose we can thank elevators for that.
God and just think about it, imagine if it never got made and all we knew was a concept for "Final Fantasy meets Disney" We'd be sitting her thinking it was an absolute train wreck of an idea...but lookie here!
He didn’t though; Hashimoto did lol
Wait xd
Otis elevators theyll never let you down
To the person reading this, Good Luck! Don't stress, everything will be fine. No matter what difficulty you are facing right now, you can overcome it! You are strong and brave
thank you so much ! I need to see this and may your blessings return to you as well 🤍
Thanks! I actually needed to see this right at this moment! 😊
It was meant to be that I hear this song and read this comment today. Thank you both!
i really need it i was overthinking and only KH can save me.. this message is gold.
Thank you.
thank you ❤
3,000,000 views! Honestly you guys are the absolute best. So lucky to have your support
a couple of hundread of those are mine not gonna lie lol
Almost 4 Million Views! Woo!
Now 4 man
Congrat bro! I love this melody
Check again ;)
I’m walking down the aisle tomorrow to this version. Thank you 💕
This is so amazing!! Congratulations :)
Hahaha Samantha!
Admit it. Kingdom Hearts has some of the best orchestral music of any game. Wether it’s Roxas’ theme, Sanctuary, Dearly Beloved, or Hikari (Japanese for “Light”)
You could say the same with the final fantasy series
Dive Into The Heart is my favorite
@xxxfuckxxfpp Yes, Vector to the heavens 👌👌
Xion theme too for me
Especially Hikari
Damn I can't believe it's be 15 years since the first game. I didn't even fully understand it as a kid but I could feel how powerful the story was.
Same here! How old are you my keyblade friend?
@@xImDesnip He is probably now 19-25... Power of maths. And, well, yeah, I might be wrong
@@connerbarnes8428 deep
And it’s a painful experience when english is not my mother tounge and whenever I played Kingdom Hearts, I always asked my big bro to do the translation for me, it’s been 12 years since my first Kingdom Hearts game. Can’t believe I beat Birth By Sleep when I was 5
@@zackdao104 I feel you bro, I did the same for my brother when he was a little kid. I can´t believe this saga is finally coming to and end, at least for now since Nomura said there´s going to be more sagas for KH.
This brings me nostalgia... i remember.. The first time i played it...
I was 5 years old...my uncle showed me the game... I loved it and started to play the first game.
My uncle told me that if i completed the game before he leaves to university, he will give the second game...and the other ones too.
Finally i completed the game, and as soon i was about to call him, my mom said "He left just now"
I was devastated, i couldn't believe it, for a sec.
Then i was going to my room when i suddenly hear a knock on the door, my uncle returns and he says " here are the games i promised"
I hugged him, and he left.
Until this day, he is still studying, very hard, to get a profession in advanced medicine, but we are still connected somehow....
With Kingdom Hearts..
Juan Sebastian
😤😢😭
Now I'm crying, that is so cute.
My uncle never show me love.
He just show me hate.
And I hate it.
... damn, that's a story
Wow
No more to say
Nice man
I used to play pc games with my uncle and my dad and would always have lan parties but then in December 2017 my uncle committed suicide and after that my dad stopped playing any games
この曲聞いたとたん、涙出ていて止まれなかった。中国人で、通勤電車、夏祭り、線香花火など日本なりの体験を鮮明に触れないのに、なぜこの曲に深く惹かれているのは国境と文化を超えた音楽の魅力であるしかない。憂鬱と不安障害と長年に闘って、いかに努力してどうせ日頃に悲しい気持ちしかないけど、振り返ったら生きられて、世の中たくさんの物事を体験することさえ、幸せだ。病気、逆境、悲しみと闘っている皆さんも頑張ってね。ご活躍を心からお祈りしています。
This version gives me the opportunity to break down and feel like I'm human. That spark is re-ignited.
Thank you for this! 🎶

Imagine this stripped back version of Hikari playing at a super emotional poignant moment in KH3 where Sora remembers all his adventures up to the final battle to remind him of all the people who’s hearts are connected to his
LazerzZ i was just thinking the same...better prepare a lot of paper tissue I’m not ready 😢😢
Man, if Simple and Clean/Hikari comes back in KH3 I absolutely will not be able to handle it.
I didn’t ask for this kind of emotional Tumult why are you doing this sksksks
@@beatricebattaglia6731 feels train anyone
This is actually at the ending of Kingdom Hearts 3
Everyone is having normal lives again.
Disney Castle, with Mickey, Donald and Goofy
The Land of Departure, with Terra, Aqua and Ven
Twilight Town, Roxas and the whole gang
Radiant Garden
And at the end everyone got a happy ending.
But it's far from over. Sora's journey is starting once again.
These games have been in my life for as long as I can remember. My uncle was physically disabled, confined to a wheelchair with limited hand movement, so he couldn’t play the PlayStation games, I would watch him play 358/2 days on his ds at night❤️
And we watched all the others on UA-cam. He passed away last July and this brought me to tears, this is so beautiful and nostalgic thank you 😊
to all the people getting marry to this song. congrats. this was my breakup song from my first wife. better to love n loss than never lov3d at all
you deserve better. Stay strong buddy
This was my first video game song that I actually liked other than the super Mario brothers and was really catchy. I want to thank the people who made the music to this game for making good music.
The 328 people who disliked this are HEARTLESS.
just positif thinking.. maybe they're accidentally touch the dislike xD
HikariiRose screw it, they're Nobodies in my eyes
Savage Ayoo Those damn Nobodies xD
HikariiRose Really?
38
I recently lost the love of my life to suicide. I been having trouble keeping it all together. I really wanted this song to be played at our wedding. But instead I have to hear it during her funeral. It hasn't been easy but I'm not gonna quit on life as she wouldn't want me to do that. Her heart lives on inside me
Stay strong friend
Keep going for her and now know that you have others to give you the strength you need as well we walk this path together hand in hand
Probably the most beautiful song I’ve ever heard. Always makes me cry
Ah the memories from I was 6 or 7 playing this at my grandmother's house during the Christmas holidays. Riku has abandoned you, you had just received the keyblade, Kairi has gone missing, the island is being destroyed and now you're just faced with a mysterious/depressing quest to complete.
Sora finally in smash, and the beast ending to smash, dreams come true :,)
Brings back childhood memories... not of the game, but with my family when I played this game and the serenity I felt with them and enjoying each other's presence. It starts to fall apart with death and music seems to be the only safe-haven that stays.. unfortunately..
Peter Huynh has k
Don't forget the memories of the ones you love. If you keep those memories, then they will live on forever in your heart. You are all connected now, by your hearts and your memories.
You're very lucky, to even have that kind of a memory to go back to.. many people wish they had such a great thing to draw that kind of helpful energy from
Peter Huynh I feel that same pain
I don't believe that death will last forever.
this song symbolizes years of adventure, memories recollecting in an existentially depressive way. to me it sounds like having everything, and then having nothing, and looking back on that everything and just breaking down
I just came here to listen to this song again after the final ssbu reveal. damn so many teenage memories.
Yes!!!
Beautiful last edition to the game. Perfect in fact 😌
The tears are flowing and you can't do anything.
nostalgia ❤
2,000,000 views! You guys are the best. Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU.
Your very welcome samyoung
Hey man, can you please share this wallpaper with us.
Kingdom Hearts has a really special place in our hearts
This is one of the most beautiful musical pieces I've ever heard.
I'll be walking down the aisle to this next month. We couldn't have picked a more perfect song for our perfect day 💞
I’m just crying and smiling.. thanks you guys for this moment❤
I have never played a single KH game in my life but the soundtracks and covers are just so beautiful ❤
When you walk away, you don't hear me say
"Please, oh baby, don't go."
Simple and clean is the way that you're making me feel tonight
It's hard to let it go
[Verse 1]
You're giving me too many things lately
You're all I need, you smiled at me and said
"Don't get me wrong, I love you
But does that mean I have to meet your father?"
When we are older you'll understand
What I meant when I said
"No, I don't think life is quite that simple"
[Hook]
When you walk away, you don't hear me say
"Please, oh baby, don't go."
Simple and clean is the way that you're making me feel tonight
It's hard to let it go
[Break]
So simple and clean
[Verse 2]
The daily things (like this and that and what is what?)
That keep us all busy are confusing me
That's when you came to me and said
"Wish I could prove I love you
But does that mean I have to walk on water?"
When we are older you'll understand
It's enough when I say so
And maybe some things are that simple
[Hook]
When you walk away, you don't hear me say
"Please, oh baby, don't go."
Simple and clean is the way that you're making me feel tonight
It's hard to let it go
[Bridge]
Hold me
Whatever lies beyond this morning is a little later on
Regardless of warnings the future doesn't scare me at all
Nothing's like before
[Hook]
When you walk away, you don't hear me say

Regardless of warnings the future doesn't scare me at all

"...But I've learned that deep down there's a light that never goes out!"
PLEASE PUT THIS ON SPOTIFY IM BEGGING YOU. 😭
This version just hits deeper than I expected
Walking down the aisle to this version of the song in 3 months... I get goosebumps every time I hear it and want to cry happy tears. this game meant so much to me as a kid and even now. My mom and I even have matching keyblade tattoos! Always knew this would be the song I got married to. So excited !
It's a beautiful music, every time I listen to music; just after the music starts, the tears starts to drop from my eyes.
I tear up every time I listen to this... it’s too gorgeous
I've never heard a version of this song more beautiful. You capture the love and passion of the characters and the story beautifully, more so than the original. Thank you for sharing!
I've stopped searching for something simple and clean. I'll believe it's meant for everyone else and nothing will ever change my hope for people's endeavors in finding and keeping love. But as for me no such a thing exists. Some people are meant to walk alone in this world. I honestly accepted it a long time ago but it still tender and sweet seeing the beauty compassion and selflessness leaves in the world we all share. I'll never doubt the potential each and every single person has from the day they are born till their day of departure. All of you who don't believe in yourselves or are questioning your value, I'm here to tell you: you are special beyond imagination, you are greater beyond belief and capable of the impossible. Without a shred of doubt nothing will ever stand in your way so long as you hold onto hope and continue pouring out your gifts and uniqueness to those around you. Life is so precious and it will always be well spent when passion and empathy encompass your heart. I may never share this life with someone but that will never change the fact that's its worth the price because I get the privilege of loving each and every one of you :)
how could someone dislike this beautiful melody. THEYRE HEARTLESS.
Could be Nobodies. They cannot feel anything, remember?
Screw it. They're just 400+ Xehenorts, or him making 400+ alts.
I decided years ago, when I die, Hikari will be my funeral song. It made me cry and remember everybody I had lost and how I remember everybody today.
KINGDOM HEARTS 3 TOMORROWWWWWWWWW
my playing this in my car to pick up my pre-order
Hyped
I walked down the aisle to this on my wedding day in August 2018. Thank you for making this rendition of this song.
hai can i buy the music sheet? for this song.. i really like it
sora dies
When your down..when there’s no where to go..but for some reason you keep going...something reminds you..love is inside you ❤️ kingdom hearts everyone
Without a doubt one of the most beautiful experiences I've ever had, listening to this arrangement. Truly bliss. Thank you for sharing.
I came here for music and left because you conveyed all the emotion TOO WELL and I wasn't in the mood to cry tonight
Who's here after beating Kingdom Hearts 3 and has come to cry?????
Me
me
I beat the first and second games and I was crying after them. Getting KH3 soon.
Finished it today
I’m gonna bawl my eyes out
Me. Definitely me.
Time has past yet the feelings one gets hearing the nostalgia song will bring back memories of our childhood..
The chills running down my spine when I hear this, is an incredible feeling! ❤
I still cant believe its been nearly 6 years when this came out and I had it on my playlist during Bus rides to school and on my walk home...it was the best feeling to have within my heart and I'm glad to hear it again,It brings back old memories somehow and I will cherish them for as long as my heart is still beating just as I cherish this song. 2017 , Jan, 12
I can't stop listening to this.
Un'armonia sinfonica che provoca milioni d'emozioni nello stesso momento, qualcosa di unico e d'irripetibile. Magico
*Sora is Finally Here*
#ThankYouSakurai
#SmashBrosUltimate
This is the 3rd time I've cried to this masterpiece... Sam, thank you. Thank you for this amazing song, thank you for uploading it... thank you.
ew what a nerd
I walked down the isle to this song on 7/18/21. Thank you for posting such a beautiful song and making our day even more special. KH is our favorite game ❤
You must have a boring life there’s plenty of other songs you can choose from but a video game song how lame
this is the most beautiful and well made arrangement that I have heard so far.
this is the most beautiful and well made in japan...
どんな時だって
たった一人で
運命忘れて
生きてきたのに
突然の光の中、目が覚める
真夜中に
静かに出口に立って
暗闇に光を撃て
今時約束なんて不安にさせるだけかな
願いを口にしたいだけさ
家族にも紹介するよ
きっとうまくいくよ
どんな時だって
ずっと二人で
どんな時だって
側にいるから
君という光が私を見つける
真夜中に
うるさい通りに入って
運命の仮面をとれ
先読みのし過ぎなんて意味の無いことは止めて
今日はおいしい物を食べようよ
未来はずっと先だよ
僕にも分からない
完成させないで
もっと良くして
ワンシーンずつ撮って
いけばいいから
君という光が私のシナリオ
映し出す
もっと話そうよ
目前の明日の事も
テレビ消して
私の事だけを見ていてよ
どんなに良くったって
信じきれないね
そんな時だって
側にいるから
君という光が私を見つける
真夜中に
もっと話そうよ
目前の明日の事も
テレビ消して
私の事だけを見ていてよ
I have always known when I listen to this song that I am connected to those that I love... it's been there during the bad times and it doesn't matter how far away we are or if we don't speak everyday... I know that in some way we'll always be connected... I guess sometimes I need to remind myself :)
Love your work. Please do more. Amazing
This takes me way back to my childhood. Gives me the chills every time..... Makes me question existence itself. Which is my destiny? What awaits for us all?
This is simply just breathtakingly beautiful and nostalgic. We're just about close to getting KH3 within a few more weeks and I'm excited.
I wished this aged better
I always come back to this video and when I do, it just gives me hope and keep pushing for my dreams
This is so beautiful, and it is just amazing, I'm speechless, you did an amazing job, never give up on what you love.
The strings really pluck at your heart while the piano soars you through the entire song. Such a beautiful composition, Sam. I love it! It'd be awesome to have seen you collaborate with a video game soundtrack!
I regret taking Kingdom Hearts for granted as a kid. I never realized how much I wanted to play the game now that I know how beautiful the story is😭😭😭
So beutiful my friend,so beautiful❤❤👏👏👏😌😌😌
There will never be another Series and with such Impact, like Final Fantasy or Kingdom Hearts ... both way ahead of their times...
I JUST found this and my KH-fan friend and I are legit CRYING.
I’m a musician myself and I’ve never heard a song as beautiful and dynamic as this one
Weak.
Rhett does you being a musician determine you have a better ear than most of humanity? It does not, shut up. No one cares that you're a musician.
P.S Don't get me wrong, I love the song.
Simple (and clean)
@@nedkelly8958 Jesus you had a bad day
One of the greatest compositions we'll ever see.
Remember kids, pay your respects to elevators.
in remember kids may your heart be your guiding key
context?
@@gilby7340 The only reason Kingdom Hearts exists is because of an elevator pitch, due to Square Enix and Disney sharing a building at the time.
They never let you down
Today is Kingdom Hearts 18th Birthday. I’m exactly a month older than the series, and this girl I’ve been crushing on for years is a month younger. I’m writing her these letter in a small book to express how exactly I feel about her. I just watched Lu Over the Wall and it was beautiful. I listen to this now sitting at my open window to breathe in some fresh air and enjoy what I have now before going on my own crazy adventures real soon once my senior year is over.
How'd it go?
Masterfully arranged. It truly captures the emotional and uplifting essence of the instrumental of the original, but in its own rich, unique way.
Well done!
This takes the deepest feelings from me. Music can achieve things than nothing else is capable of.
.... Now that the saga has concluded. We now join hands in hope of the next arc to come is as joyful as those that came. That those far off memories.... our memories... can reach him. ..please sora. We all wait for you once more.
I know why you're here. It's okay, I want to main Sora too.
Lol
:')
Nah, I’m the one u can main. Secondary sora, but main me. You know you want to.
@@HD-gz2ge Bold talk coming from the most hated newcomer in the game lol. Even Piranha Plant got more hype for just being a meme
@@P.V.3606 for one, yes, because Corrin is beloved in every way. And for two, with how much my game sold, you know it was gonna happen sooner or later. And for three, haha down b go bonk
Honestly i love this one...
I feel complete the nostalgia in my voice when I sing the song, it's bring back so good memories then I'm crying. good job
This music represents the deepest and most fragile overwhelming emotions of our childhood! KH forever in our hearts :)
Wow. This is phenomenal. I am in awe of the beauty of this song, and your rendition! Wonderful! Thank you for bringing such beauty to UA-cam and the KH universe.
KH and KH2 are great parts of my childhood ! I played kh2 in 9th or 10th grade I think it was. And loved them. But I never played KH3 because It came out so late. I was about a month away from being 29 years old when KH3 was released, so I have lost interest as an adult . Those games are too childish for me to play and be interested in anymore. But I still have a special place in my heart for KH and KH2 !
Its odd how kingdom hearts was my brother's favorite game but i never played it growing up. He died shortly before Sora was released for smash and it made me start playing the games. Now I see why he loved it so much. I almost cry when i hear this
I recently finished NieR Automata and I'm looking for another story based game with beautiful drama and lovely characters
is kingdom hearts for me?
Ali Medadi YES IT IS
Yes, but start playing KH 1 first please
Play them in this order: Kingdom Hearts, Kingdom Hearts (Re)Chain of Memories, Kingdom Hearts II, Kingdom Hearts 358/2 days, Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep, Kingdom Hearts (Re)Coded, Kingdom Hearts Dream Drop Distance, Kingdom Hearts 0.2: A Fragmentary Passage, Kingdom Hearts Unchained X (at the latest here), Kingdom Hearts X Back Cover, and if it comes out, Kingdom Hearts 3.
Don't feel overwhelmed.
Great taste. In my case, the KH series was the emotional game of my childhood and then Automata has become one of my favorite games of all time. The KH plot is much longer and cheesier at moments, but there's definitely magic at its heart.
Ali Medadi I know this is old, and you’ve probably already played it, but there’s always good ol’ Nier Gestalt/Replicant...
This is so moving it brings tears to my eyes. It's the most beautiful arrangement of this song. You're a genius.
please. i beg you, please, make it available on spotify. please
this video was blocked im my area for YEARS! glad i can listen to it again
It was? That’s a shame to hear. May I ask where you’re listening from?
Those strings at 2:58. Just...chills, man.
I listened to this in a dressing gown, with a cup of tea, lights dimmed and scented candle lit and I swear to god I feel like I've just transcended from the mortal realm
The only thing i think of when i hear this is Donald singing Simple And Clean...
Thank you Kingdom hearts community lol
i come here whenever i need to make some tears fall, its good to cry, healthy. Dont give up king/queen, you got this
One sky, one destiny. 🥲🫂🌌
If someone asked me “do you even know the true meaning of love?” I would give them this song and it will speak on it’s own
So glad you put your collection on spotify man. All the success to you!
Beautiful. Simply beautiful.
I’ve always loved the music in kingdom hearts
It is normal to cry with this song so beautiful
god this is beautiful. best version I ever heard
I remember my cousin from Australia playing this piece on the piano in our house when she and her family visited years ago. Only a few months ago did I remember that this song existed, but I forgot the title. The only clues I had were the pre-chorus melody and that it was by Utada Hikaru. thank you for this beautiful rendition 🥺
in in love with how you treat the strings 😍
your picture is awesome
Namine :3
RazaGon 3838 And Kairi :')
ShiKuBlaite
same my man
I go here whenever I need to cry but the tears won't come out. Works every time.
es una canción muy hermosa, siempre pensaba que era de otro juego pero me alegra saber que es de kingdom hearts
Im having the hardest time of my life atm, none cant break me down, none can make me shed tears. But this, "Hikari" broke me down in tears like a 3y.o kid all of the sudden, it just felt like the remnants of light are trying their best to reach me and rescue me, so thank you. Ill stay strong on my fight.
I don’t know what you’re going through, but I want you to know that God cares about you. He sees everything that you’re going through. From your trials you will become stronger. I’m going through something as well but I wanted to take the time to give you this encouragement. Psalm 34:18, “The Lord is near to the brokenhearted and saves the crushed in spirit.”
@@ChildofGod11011 geez its been half a year, im doing better now. I had recently open up my coffeeshop and it has been the greatest thing ive experience since along time. And thank you for reaching out to me, i hope what ever ur going thru rn gonna turns out good. Blessed you good people.
If something like this were to play at the end of Kingdom Hearts 3, I would bawl, no joke.
Why is this so relatable... if your sad or happy either way its relatable
