The soundtrack dissonance from 0:16 - 0:45 is done so well. There are absolutely horrific things happening in this game, and the way the calming music is overlayed over these scenes makes for such an eerie juxtaposition. It feels simultaneously calming and hopeless.
Even though it's only been a year since I heard this last, I literally started crying from goosebumps from watching this today. I remember opening this game up on my PS2 years back just to hear this song play
you don't know how many times i let this intro replay before i even jumped into the game... so many fucking times... one of the best series konami ever published,and one of kojimas most underrated,and underloved...
i know 2 is a better game in generally every regard, but for some reason 1 is held closer to my heart, i just loved leo's development as a character, viola was such a great antagonist and the way her character's arc concludes is simply perfectly written and heart-wrenching, the game had such an amazing atmosphere and world(even though its essentially a colony from a gundam series) and generally the game just had a wow factor the first time a played it. NOW MAKE A ZOE3 BASTARDS!
black3chan Kojima is gone. Plus the Zoe HD Collection didn't sell quite well... so, unfortunately, it would be REALLY HARD to see Zoe 3. Also, Konami wants to abandond consoles to move on mobile gaming and apps...
god this game was amazing. i remember when i had the demo on those old school playstation demo disc. Then got the official release for the reason that it was awesome, not that it had a MGS2 demo (although that was awesome too). Having gotten the HD collection recently, the nostalgia hit me pretty hard because i remembered EVERYTHING about this game
Ironically, I was first introduced to this series by the HD collection on Xbox 360. After doing some research and finishing both games on the HD collection, I decided to pay my respects and buy both of the original PS2 discs. I still have the og's and HD to this day. :)
I remember going to sleep early and waking up at 2 or 4 in the morning to play this game before getting ready to go to School. Metal Gear Solid 2 + 3 and Zone of the Enders were my best, most played games back in 2002 to 2008. This Intro is Gold.
Still waking up with the image of me just evading dangers and hazards... And grasping her hand to only protect her... The video and lyrics combined translation is deeper than most things people struggle with in life... ❤❤❤
I still remember the first time I played this free game that came with the MGS2 Demo I bought. As it turned out ZOE was a “pretty good” game! Thanks for the lyrics, now I actually understand the song.
I knew about a really good transcription years ago but can no longer find it. I used to sing this to myself while driving when I was going to college many moons ago. I think that translation was something like "You can't just stand there (something), the suffering."
I loved this game as a child. It was my favourite mecha game, and my favourite Mecha series. I became skilled at the game, learning to dodge, block, grab and slash in the game. I beat the game on the highest difficulty as well. Now, when I play games, I simply just go for the hardest difficulty.
takes me back, this game was a big impact on my childhood, taught me about man v machine, what made something have "life" and what it means to be human
Back in 2001 I played the demo of this game I was 6 years old at the time, this was the first game I played that have blood in it! I never played the full game. But remember this opening of the game very well. Even-doh I only played the demo of this game!
This song always had a winter like feel to me:loving and calming yet at the end a hint of mystery and a sense of greatness.So glade this game is getting an HD remake along with a bonus demo of MGR.
After hearing it btw... lyrics wise... 'You've got to stand up... Find you Utop...' Utopia... This is more legit than most currently bragged about anime... ide rather full scale assault from this on my TV screens...
Lines I got as wrong and fixes: Beautiful dreams, tonight, love. Still for this night, tonight love. This life,In this world's Too cold. You’ve got to stand And fight your you-outh, the supreme I’ll fight for you, tempester, for the odyssey. Go higher among the heart of the longer lived. I feel awake, yet you don’t move, for the song I sing Symphony is all. I’m too impressed, so many hearts missed the Sunlight I'll go, run around, go and live until the end of night Find me in your heart.
I have this game for the PS2 back in about a year after it came out. I've played the demo version of the game, before getting the actual one. And I actually love it, and want more of it. The main reason for it is that, the game reminded me of Gundam. Since, I was in that phase at the time.
Amidst the stars alone... alone... The fire-haired samurai of my dreams, staring... staring... You can not see the self now To the sky above we would like to fly Fantaria, tempesta, it`s my Odessey Go higher, among the hearts of around the rings (moonlight...) Until I feel new dawn bloom on the silent sea (silent sea...) Sing for me your song (fly me...) Angel heart, so many heart, kiss me sunlights (light) Fly to the dark, set soul free, hold me moonshine! (moonlight...) Until my rumbled hand lead to the end of time, (end of night...) find me in your eyes... (fly me... fly me... fly me...) Air l'amore... Air l'amore... Air l'amore...
Lyrics export: Beautiful dream, to la la. So easy. (So easy.) Streams of this night, to la la. All misty. (All misty.) (Ah~ Ah~ Ah) Full Smile, in this world, to come. You've got to stand up. Find your own truth, the supreme. Fantaria, tempesta, It's my odyssey. Go higher and wonder heart of labyrinth. Until I feel new dawn bloom on the silent sea. (Silent sea.) Sing, for me, your song. Angel heart. So many heart. Kiss me Sunlight. (Lia-a~) Fly to the dark, Set soul free, Hold me moonshine. (Mo-o-on light.) Until my rumbled hand leads to the end of night. (End of night.) Find me in your eyes. (Find me.) (Find me.) Air l'armour. (Find me.) Air l'armour. Air l'armour...
this song's real lyrics is really good. its pretty mysterious n vague to the meaning of the words in the song's theme. its pretty cryptic to figure out the meaning behind the whole song lol.
I keep listening to this song. >< Its so addictive haha. xD But honestly...I keep thinking I heard this song before I played the game...I mean, when I first played this game and heard this song, I kept thinking I heard this song before! Probably not but...the song still gives off that feeling that I did hear it before...
for many years, we fans tried to find the lyrics of this version of the song. There are any oficial lyrics, and later they released the japanese version...but I still have hope to come across with the lyrics by chance xD BTW, your lyrics are almost perfect. I think that some things aren't correct, but as I don't know the lyrics, I prefer not to talk (write in this situation)
I will start to. man i´ve got to play this game again. It may be my 100th time maybe... The second version has been rare since 6 years back. I will get it soon. ;)
Correct lyrics for the chorus part are... Fantasia, tempesta, it's my odyssey. Go higher, and wonder heart of labyrinth. Until I feel new dawn bloom on the silent sea. Sing for me your song... Angel heart, so many hurt, Kiss me sunlights. Fly to dark, set soul free, Hold me moonshine. Until my rumbled hands lead to the end of night (end of night) Find me in your eyes.
I personally got into the game cause of the MGS2 Demo and Kojima himself was involved with the game. but after playing this games demo and hearing this OP i say what the hell,I'm getting this game MGS2 or not.Especially since the series are litteraterly the BEST MECHA GAME EVER!!!!
Everyone watching this. I love you we were all influenced by this game I think. I beat it in 22 hour benge. Never beat a game in a day except this one. I literally could not put it down.
I remember when I first got my ps2. I was thinking between this and DMC for my first game. the salesman recommended DMC for the replay value, but I said no **** this I'm getting intense high-speed arsonist mecha action. I do not regret my decision to this very day.
i remember playing the demo and loved it but then i saw it at a game stor one time and i was holy SH** must get it haha i still hav eit to this day and i still love it. i have yet to play the second one though :p and i also had no idea that they where singing in english haha
Honestly, recently I've been thinking there might be a two-voice thing going on there. It's potentially: You've got to stand! (No, duh!) And then whatever the second piece could be.
Fantasic intro and song, great memories of first owning a PS2, miss you old Konami.
lol this game is great even tho its 2 yrs older than me
Don't we all
Zone of The Enders: Intro - Kiss Me Sunlights [English] [Lyrics] [60fps] [Full HD]
ua-cam.com/video/Na2zt9tqoDE/v-deo.html
Me too
Pride is Koanmi's sin, they were to prideful to trust in Kojima to carry them to greatest so they fired him.
love this song... still.
masterxeon1001 yup this one is one helluva song.... with feelz included 4 free!
masterxeon1001 it's my all time favorite songs ever
Daniel Moore nice to see some recent comments on this old game!

The soundtrack dissonance from 0:16 - 0:45 is done so well. There are absolutely horrific things happening in this game, and the way the calming music is overlayed over these scenes makes for such an eerie juxtaposition. It feels simultaneously calming and hopeless.
This is not a game.
This is not a movie.
This is poetry.
Kojima is great.
It’s not the frame it’s the pilot.

No, this is engrish.

Even though it's only been a year since I heard this last, I literally started crying from goosebumps from watching this today. I remember opening this game up on my PS2 years back just to hear this song play
❤❤❤ love that, this game is so underrated in makes me angry 😠
you don't know how many times i let this intro replay before i even jumped into the game...
so many fucking times...
one of the best series konami ever published,and one of kojimas most underrated,and underloved...
i know 2 is a better game in generally every regard, but for some reason 1 is held closer to my heart, i just loved leo's development as a character, viola was such a great antagonist and the way her character's arc concludes is simply perfectly written and heart-wrenching, the game had such an amazing atmosphere and world(even though its essentially a colony from a gundam series) and generally the game just had a wow factor the first time a played it.
NOW MAKE A ZOE3 BASTARDS!
this game felt so mysterious and strange compared to 2, I loved that about it
I really loved the tone of the first one compared to 2nd Runner.
jsh020 this game was wayyyyyy beyond it’s time dude
@@NEO_RKX In the age of reboots, remakes, and remasters? I don't think so.
sorry "jsh" but now that kojima is NO LONGER with konami, its more or less impossible considering that he no longer have the rights to the franchise!
I remember watching this trailer on OG IGN in .QOV format! waiting for it to buffer on 56k dial-up.
so many memories, damn so many
AvengerSR Still can't get over the fact that I'm still demanding a 3rd one to quell my need to fight with JEHUTY!
black3chan Kojima is gone. Plus the Zoe HD Collection didn't sell quite well... so, unfortunately, it would be REALLY HARD to see Zoe 3. Also, Konami wants to abandond consoles to move on mobile gaming and apps...
Alas such a potentially good thing had to die before its true potential was reached. Indeed a very sad thing for us all in the gaming community :(
good things dies early I guess?
god this game was amazing. i remember when i had the demo on those old school playstation demo disc. Then got the official release for the reason that it was awesome, not that it had a MGS2 demo (although that was awesome too). Having gotten the HD collection recently, the nostalgia hit me pretty hard because i remembered EVERYTHING about this game
Exactly the same thing that happened to me lol
OMG ME TOO, i literally just got the HD mix and cannot wait to play it
They got a HD collection? I just played this on my old PS2 demo disk, the memories!
@Jessie Boutilier: Yes there is an HD collection for PS3 with trophies ( and they are hard) of both Zoe1 and 2.
Ironically, I was first introduced to this series by the HD collection on Xbox 360. After doing some research and finishing both games on the HD collection, I decided to pay my respects and buy both of the original PS2 discs. I still have the og's and HD to this day. :)

Incredible. Also, you should get a Nobel prize in the category 'Lyrics Decypherer'. Respect.
One of the only games that had me sit through the entire opening and loading screens because of the amazing soundtrack and intro :D
Still waking up with the image of me just evading dangers and hazards...
And grasping her hand to only protect her...
The video and lyrics combined translation is deeper than most things people struggle with in life...
❤❤❤
Havent seen this since i was about 13 years old, im 34 now. Felt like life time ago. Thanks for sharing
Still the greatest game ever made. I will die on this hill a thousand times over.
this intro brings back such nostalgia, VERY few games nowadays bring the feeling of nostalgia, miss the ps2 days
Ughhh this warms my heart so many memories 💝 thank you
Yes I finally found this opening!!!! Memories :)
What's interesting is that this English version is NOT a translation of the Japanese song, the english verses are just different
Best intro ever
I still remember the first time I played this free game that came with the MGS2 Demo I bought. As it turned out ZOE was a “pretty good” game! Thanks for the lyrics, now I actually understand the song.
30 next month, I remember playing this when I was 11. Time does fly and this being back childhood memories.
I knew about a really good transcription years ago but can no longer find it. I used to sing this to myself while driving when I was going to college many moons ago. I think that translation was something like "You can't just stand there (something), the suffering."
I always come back to this every year or two. The only two game intros I like more than this one are Soul Blade for PS1 and Final Fantasy Tactics.
Been looking for this for YEARS! Forgot the name, ahh memories
I loved this game as a child. It was my favourite mecha game, and my favourite Mecha series. I became skilled at the game, learning to dodge, block, grab and slash in the game. I beat the game on the highest difficulty as well. Now, when I play games, I simply just go for the hardest difficulty.
This digs into such a deep part of my memories 😂😂
takes me back, this game was a big impact on my childhood, taught me about man v machine, what made something have "life" and what it means to be human
ReaperRises Dude, same.
The falling mech scene of the opening still hits me.
OMG ZONE OF THE ENDERS COLLECTION HD!!! cant wait for it!!!! ^^
This game brought so many memories
I actually remember crying while playing this 😂 no but it was sad af
Back in 2001 I played the demo of this game I was 6 years old at the time, this was the first game I played that have blood in it! I never played the full game. But remember this opening of the game very well. Even-doh I only played the demo of this game!

I miss this game. Tears in my eyes remembering those ps2 days.
Radium would loved this song of his passing away in 2167 and 2172
I remeber getting this game, so many memories
This game makes me so nostalgic back when I was like 9 playing it on my cousin's demo disk for PS2, ahhh those were the days. XD
I had ZOE1&2 about 10 years ago and its still in very good shape
Dazzle capture! Oldschool stuff done right.
I love this song a lot
Still remember being in awe of this intro,because this was my first introduction to a ps2... All because of mgs2... Thank you hideo kojima....
This song is so amazing
When I first heard this as a kid I was completely hooked I still love it
After hearing it btw... lyrics wise...
'You've got to stand up...
Find you Utop...'
Utopia...
This is more legit than most currently bragged about anime... ide rather full scale assault from this on my TV screens...
Lines I got as wrong and fixes:
Beautiful dreams, tonight, love.
Still for this night, tonight love.
This life,In this world's Too cold.
You’ve got to stand
And fight your you-outh, the supreme
I’ll fight for you, tempester, for the odyssey.
Go higher among the heart of the longer lived.
I feel awake, yet you don’t move, for the song I sing
Symphony is all.
I’m too impressed, so many hearts missed the Sunlight
I'll go, run around, go and live until the end of night
Find me in your heart.
Wow.Kiss Me Sunlight theme from Zone Of The Enders got me going. Get 3 in the mix,and put Leo as a main character while you're at it!
almosr perfect quality , thanks for putting this video it makes me remember my childhood
I have this game for the PS2 back in about a year after it came out. I've played the demo version of the game, before getting the actual one. And I actually love it, and want more of it. The main reason for it is that, the game reminded me of Gundam. Since, I was in that phase at the time.
Great memories
Amidst the stars
alone... alone...
The fire-haired samurai of my dreams,
staring... staring...
You can not see the self now
To the sky above
we would like to fly
Fantaria, tempesta, it`s my Odessey
Go higher, among the hearts
of around the rings (moonlight...)
Until I feel new dawn bloom
on the silent sea (silent sea...)
Sing for me your song (fly me...)
Angel heart, so many heart,
kiss me sunlights (light)
Fly to the dark, set soul free,
hold me moonshine! (moonlight...)
Until my rumbled hand lead
to the end of time, (end of night...)
find me in your eyes... (fly me... fly me... fly me...)
Air l'amore...
Air l'amore...
Air l'amore...
Lyrics export:
Beautiful dream, to la la. So easy. (So easy.)
Streams of this night, to la la. All misty. (All misty.)
(Ah~ Ah~ Ah)
Full Smile, in this world, to come.
You've got to stand up. Find your own truth, the supreme.
Fantaria, tempesta, It's my odyssey. Go higher and wonder heart of labyrinth. Until I feel new dawn bloom on the silent sea. (Silent sea.)
Sing, for me, your song.
Angel heart. So many heart. Kiss me Sunlight. (Lia-a~) Fly to the dark, Set soul free, Hold me moonshine. (Mo-o-on light.) Until my rumbled hand leads to the end of night. (End of night.)
Find me in your eyes. (Find me.) (Find me.)
Air l'armour. (Find me.)
Air l'armour.
Air l'armour...
I always lul when Jehuty's cockpit raises upwards when he flies into the sky :D
hit me right in the feels
[######|##### | ]
Eugh!
(I tried to make a graphic, not great but)
It's been another year back again. We need a new ZOE game!
Loved this song so much and good rhythm
I always thought this was one of the greatest games in PS2, and the 2nd runner is a nice canonical sequel as well.
I love the lyrics for this song they are great!
Part of my life , sound and everthing
Bringing tears to my eyes in 2021.
I'm 31 I remember when I first played this I fell in love with this game
That is awesome! Im glad you chose this over DMC. I wouldve done the same and I definitely would not have regretted it either! :D
this vid brings tears to my eyes...and i only had the demo!
This is still to this not my first PS2 game but still my favorite game today
I was just in a stunned silence when this first flashed across my TV.
this song's real lyrics is really good. its pretty mysterious n vague to the meaning of the words in the song's theme. its pretty cryptic to figure out the meaning behind the whole song lol.
I keep listening to this song. >< Its so addictive haha. xD
But honestly...I keep thinking I heard this song before I played the game...I mean, when I first played this game and heard this song, I kept thinking I heard this song before! Probably not but...the song still gives off that feeling that I did hear it before...
Thank you, PCSX2.
for many years, we fans tried to find the lyrics of this version of the song. There are any oficial lyrics, and later they released the japanese version...but I still have hope to come across with the lyrics by chance xD

This opening use to scare me as a kid
mained the shit out of this game moment I first found and played it. Music and everything still holds my heart
This make me cry.
So heart warming
Correct lyrics for the chorus part are...
Fantasia, tempesta, it's my odyssey.
Go higher, and wonder heart of labyrinth.
Until I feel new dawn bloom on the silent sea.
Sing for me your song...
Angel heart, so many hurt, Kiss me sunlights.
Fly to dark, set soul free, Hold me moonshine.
Until my rumbled hands lead to the end of night (end of night)
Find me in your eyes.
First game will always be one of my personal favorites
Pretty good Japanese Engrish
Didn't realize this video had a meta-game until I turned on the subtitles. xD
I personally got into the game cause of the MGS2 Demo and Kojima himself was involved with the game. but after playing this games demo and hearing this OP i say what the hell,I'm getting this game MGS2 or not.Especially since the series are litteraterly the BEST MECHA GAME EVER!!!!
Everyone watching this. I love you we were all influenced by this game I think. I beat it in 22 hour benge. Never beat a game in a day except this one. I literally could not put it down.
I REMEMBER THIS!!!
LOOOL i was thinking the exact same thing!!
This song makes me want to blow up in space while piloting a mech
Waking up to play Zoe and Halo CE, miss those days
Childhood memories 100%.
This is the only Gundam game/anime I ever enjoyed.
I remember when I first got my ps2. I was thinking between this and DMC for my first game. the salesman recommended DMC for the replay value, but I said no **** this I'm getting intense high-speed arsonist mecha action.
I do not regret my decision to this very day.
Good thing we got blessed with Daemon X Machina which provides combat similar to this gem
This game was ahead of it’s time
GAME IS STILL AHEAD OF ITS TIME
Radium Lavans pleased 😃 of this song since A.D 2167 Z.O.E Idolo
this game and the fantastic music is something i want out of an original gundam game
I get nostalgic tears from the opening theme
Back in the day I would wake up and play Zoe and Halo ce
Konami was doing shit like this... 20 YEARS AGO!!! FUCK KONAMI FOR LITERALLY SELLING OUT! 😑 Anyway. Happy Anniversary ZoE.
My first ps2 game 🖤
i remember playing the demo and loved it but then i saw it at a game stor one time and i was holy SH** must get it haha i still hav eit to this day and i still love it. i have yet to play the second one though :p and i also had no idea that they where singing in english haha
@link2x101 me too brother, the feeling is unberable. i lost the game and i'm looking forward to buy it again
i think it's
Angel heart. So many hurt. Kiss me Sunlight
not
Angel heart. So many heart. Kiss me Sunlight
idk tho
Honestly, recently I've been thinking there might be a two-voice thing going on there.
It's potentially:
You've got to stand! (No, duh!)
And then whatever the second piece could be.
Im still playing this in 2023 ❤
Looking for this song for many hours
