Where to start. This piece brings back so many memories for me. Memories of discovering Final Fantasy Piano collections for the first time back in 2003 or so, and then obsessively searching for new sheets to print out and learn. This track, often times just called "Eternity" was one of the most popular FF tracks back in its day (over a decade ago), and probably the most recognizable from FFX-2. Do you remember my original cover from 2008? We've come a long way since then, haven't we? This new arrangement of Eternity has sections from the piano collections arrangement, but overall it is a new take on this old classic. Cheers to more revisits to the many covers of my past! Please enjoy, and tell me what you think in the comments below! The more you engage with my new uploads, the more they will be shown to others. If you enjoyed this upload, please help by liking and commenting. I love my fans, Kyle Landry🥰🥰
This is mad. I literally tried to play the old version to see how much I can remember and BOOM I see this today. Sends me back. Thank you for still blessing us bro 🙌
Last time I listened at your first cover was last week! Many things have happened since then. But one thing hasn't changed: your songs are still an inspiration :D
I didn’t think of this track when I offered my suggestions last week, but I’m glad you did. One of my favorite piano pieces from final fantasy x piano collections. I used to have this on repeat back in the day. Thanks, Kyle. 💙
Ahhhh this brings back similar memories. Also obsessively searching for sheets of all the piano collections and then finding your original video for this piece and falling in love with your performances. I was such a fresh piano student then and this was such a magical time in my development. Phew, time fliiiiiies lol
dansg08 my man! Its great to see you like Kyle as well. I watched through your FFX Playthrough series which made me love the game. Thanks for the videos!
I am moved to tears by this. It's not just the nostalgia, I've seen many covers of this song, but never such an incredible interpretation of it before. I am not a musician and I don't know the proper terms to express, but the way some segments were played with room to breathe and others played with such an intensity, the added iterations, the combined melodies, and most of all the way you play this so delicately and so passionately, gentle, but strong. This is masterful. This feels like the tide, like night and day, like all 4 seasons. If you are still checking these comments, I would be honored for you to know how grateful I am to you for this experience, this is deeply meaningful to me. Thank you.
Wow, that was surreal... you're one of the first channels I ever watched, and this is an all-time favourite song of my childhood. And I had almost forgotten about this piece for years, as well as (sadly) your channel. Just a few days ago I rediscovered the song, and almost at the same day you upload this video, two things coming back into my life that should have never left in the first place. Thank you so much for this amazing video.
Man, I can relate to the many people in the comments who have said this hit like a nostalgia truck. I remember when I first heard Kyle's cover of Passion from Kingdom Hearts and I first met one of your celtic music compilations. Music from both of you guys has been a part of my journey these last 10 years, and I can even associate individual songs to key periods of my life; what a priviledge it has been. Thank you both for sharing your talents and this crazy adventure with us!
OMG!! This is the best piano version EVER! Soft, and it fills in all of the needed movements before and after the main movements ... HOLY CRAP!! ... man, you are very talented working around the melody as well as working your own extrapolation of sound and emotional intent.
Played like someone who really feels and can express something with the song, rather than just playing something someone else wrote. Absolute perfection.
Isn't it strange? I mean the feeling of Nostalgia, you're somehow very happy, but also sad that those times are gone. But the moment we have experienced what we now remember wasn't that special for us after all, we surely enjoyed it but there is no emotional comparsion to what we feel when we hear or see something that we've experienced back then. "We didn't knew we were creating memories, we were just having fun" -Winnie The Pooh That's why you shouldn't hold on to the past too much, open your eyes for the today, to make new memories because that's the reason why we call it the present! Thanks for reading, have a nice day! =)
I went through a super rough time after this game was released. I would play it hours on end just to escape from reality. When I'd had enough, I'd lay on my bed and listen to this song over and over and over. The warmth it gave me even in the darkest times - I coudn't put into words. And that's one of the reasons I found your channel so many years ago. Thanks Kyle for the years of entertainment!
Thanks Kyle. I have been a fan of yours since I was in Highschool many years ago, now when I take a break between seeing patients at the hospital, I play your music in my office. I am far away from my family, but your music makes me feel that I am with them, if only for a second, back home.
I am almost 30 now and played that game back when I was 11 years old. This tune reminded me of those days. I enjoy remembering them. Thanks for letting me remember what it felt like back then for a couple of min. :)
Honestly feel teary hearing this, brings back a lot of memories. I used to sit on the title screen of the game just so I could listen to this over and over again years ago. Thank you again for bringing such joy to those who click on your vids
To be honest I didn’t like ffx2 but i sat at the title screen for hours just listening to this magical piece of art.. square Enix gave us great memories
I still remember its release day with the cardboard cutouts were outside the video games stores with the game stacked with its strategy guide in piles ... Good memories
Omg I think I was 15 years old when I first heard your cover of this song. Back before HD videos were a thing on YT. I’m 27 now and still listening and loving your videos!! The growth! You are amazing Kyle, keep inspiring us!
If you ever feel like it, i would recommend FF10. The world seems rich and lived in, with its dark duality, the story is heavy and warm with interesting main and side characters with development. It is my absolute FF game, and one of the best videogame stories in my opinion, even if it has a couple of tropes, localization issues and Japaneseyness. At the time it was my 4th FF game that i had played, so i am not overvaluing the first FF i ever played like some seem to do. (my first one was FF7) (not so much FF10-2, that tis track is from, to affected by the Charlie's angles era to not be overly cheesy) Warning: you will probably hate the protag and the stupid laugh of one of the main side characters in the beginning.
Indeed! This part was the one that made me realize the beauty of piano for the first time... while in my childhood...It opened my mind to appreciate piano covers and piano in general. Still remains my favorite piece since then,
Not me being 31 and smiling but lowkey tearing up at this. I LOVE this song. I still listened to the original version whenever I binge your vids. I remember coming across your channel in... 2005? 2006?? Idk. I still lived in Michigan at the time. All I know I was around 16 and I remembered yelling to my mom to come listen to this pianist bc he was really good and she thought I yelled something about a p*nis 😂 (it was your OG Red Skies vid). Then life went to shit, parental passed away. Moved to another state to finish out high school. Then moving 12 hrs away shortly after graduating high school. Now I'm 31 and livin in TX. And all throughout these years I still have Kyle Landry to fall back on and listen to. So yeah - Eternity. (Totally a song that brings back a lot of memories for me. lol. Including basically all of your other songs as well). EDIT: oh wow. Didn't realize you uploaded this on the March 16th. That was my dad's birthday.
とても美しい音色で引き込まれずにいられません。原曲も良いですが、こちらはさらに素晴らしいです。涙が溢れてきてしまいました。 昨今の世界の情勢はとても不安定です。私は日本に住んでいますが、とても他人事とは思えないのです。利権や民族間の感情のもつれなどが複雑に絡み合い解決は容易ではありません。ただ、その影で犠牲になっている無力な子供達や女性達がいると言うことは忘れてはならないと思うのです。力を持つものは無力な人達のために、その力を使わなければならない。そう考えています。正義なき力は無力であり、力なき正義もまた無力です。 正義とは、それぞれの立場で変わってきてしまうことがありますが、正義の定義は弱者を守るものであるべきと思います。 そして、世界が恵まれない弱者の為に自国の利益を傾ける、この連鎖が始まれば、この美しい音色のような、素晴らしい世界が訪れるのではないでしょうか。I can't help but be drawn in with a very beautiful tone. The original song is good, but it's even better. Tears have overflowed. The situation in the world these days is very unstable. I live in Japan, but I don't think it's someone else's affair. It is not easy to resolve the intricate entanglement of interests and emotional entanglements between ethnic groups. However, I think we must not forget that there are helpless children and women who are sacrificed in the shadow. Those who have power must use that power for the helpless. I think so. Power without justice is powerless, and justice without power is also powerless. Justice can change from one position to another, but I think the definition of justice should protect the weak. And if this chain of tilting the interests of one's own country for the underprivileged and the world begins, a wonderful world like this beautiful tone will come.
I remember listening to Kyle's first cover of this when I was 14. Whenever I was stressed or melancholic, I would listen to this. It's such a beautiful, hopeful piece of music, and Kyle plays it so elegantly. I'm 21 now. There's a lot of memories in this piece for all of us.
I am the first comment that you see in your original video. This is the life-changing song for me that it will remain that way for eternity. The waves of emotions that this piece can inspire someone is truly magnificent. It is beyond mellifluous. It is simple understood when you listen, and I get to experience this for the first time when I listened to it 14 years ago. Thank you, Kyle. Thank you so much! Bravo, 5 stars, 10/10, S+, and absolute god-tier rendition of the original. Innovation at its greatest. To think that a song could mean so much to me is something I wish for everyone, too. Keep it positive!
Today I found UA-cam had unsubscribed me from you! So happy that you came up on my suggested so I could subscribe again, I have missed and always looked forward to your uploads since I was in school! What a beautiful revisit to this piece too!
kylelandryさん 日本語でスミマセン。 昔からファンです。 特にファイナルファンタジーシリーズが大好きで、本当に癒やされます。 スタジオジブリ作品の久石譲さんの曲なども聴きたいです。 風の谷のナウシカの風の伝説など弾いていただけないでしょうか。。。 Sorry for using Japanese. I've been a fan for a long time. I especially love the FINAL FANTASY series and it really heals me. I also want to listen to Joe Hisaishi's songs from Studio Ghibli. Could he play "Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind" and "Legend of the Wind"? .. ..
Ahhhhhhhhhhhh thank you so much for this. Always been one my most-favorite-ever videogame tracks. FFX-2 was my first rpg... what a weird introduction, but I still love it. Absolutely not disasterrific
Dude, here is me, 14 years old, grinding the internet to find every single Final Fantasy piano collection sheet music to bring them back to my piano teacher to learn them all. FFX and FFX-2 are my absolute favorites too, and I fell in love with Besaid Island and People from the North Pole. These final fantasy piano pieces have a special place in my heart! Thanks for bringing them alive again and again - you are awesome!
Makes me emotional...many memories and feelings for me too, time goes by so fast...I often comment saying something like "beautiful" and other synonyms, but I always forget to thank you, you don't know that but you are a life companion to me and probably to many others that spend countless hours listening to you. I really appreciate you, thank you.
The nostalgia makes me so emotional. Makes me remember my high school days. My nerdy friends. The memories. Seems so long ago. So much has happened since then. Final Fantasy was the stories of our childhood. It's timeless.
This is one of the greatest piece covers I have ever had the pleasure of listening. This is the reason why I want to become a video game pianist instead of just another classical pianist.
Used to watch Kyle a lot when I was 9, life happened and my piano obsession waned. Now hearing him play my favorite musical piece makes me weirdly emotional. This arrangement is perfect. You'll always be a legend to me.
I love to watch your fingers when you play. It looks silky almost as they glide across the keys, like water. This is truly beautiful. Thank you for blessing my life with your talent.
I’ll keep coming back to this beautiful peace until I die. Your arrangement is the best out of all I’ve heard. The nostalgia, peacefulness, and emotion you put into this piece helps put me at ease whenever im feeling down or stressed from life. Thank you for sharing this with us!
I've come back to this video every few weeks since you posted it. Of all your covers (quite a few since I started following you over a decade ago), this is the one I want to just sink into and never resurface. Your music really is a gift. Thank you for sharing it. (And if you're still looking for classic covers to revisit, my vote is for Passion; it was a real treat to hear it crop up in your KH/FF concert.)
I was 13 when FFX-2 came out in the UK, I used to just listen to the start menu screen just to listen to the music. Brings back memories and tears, now that I am 31.
The sheet music for this piece is finally available on Music Notes! Kyle, since you put this video up 2 years ago I have been obsessed. It is my favorite piano solo of all time. I have constantly come back to look for the sheet music so I can try to emulate the amazing work you've done here. When I saw the sheet music this week I nearly cried. Thank you so much for this song, as well as the countless others that you have shared with us.
From the moment you recorded the first cover of Eternity and my friend Patrick linked me to your channel, I found myself listening to it over my surround sound in my apartment. I’d lay on the couch in the dark in my living room and imagine scenes before id write them for my book. Many of the songs you would play id used as background music for emotional inspiration while writing scenes. You indeed have come so far. I think we all have, and it is such a gift to me that you revisited this memory, as many people I have loved are no longer here for this version, but for some reason, this brings back the feelings that they are indeed here in the moment. This moment. Hope, dreams, and all. Thank you, Kyle.
This is awesome 😍 !!! This song is one of my favourite video games song of all time. You remastered it like anyone else … you are the goat of piano cover ❤
Me and my little sister have been watching your vids since the beginning. After a gap of a few years, this video suddenly popped up in my recommendations.
i leaned on this piece you played 13 years ago, and returned often to seek a semblance of peace and beauty. thank you for still being here, for still making music.
The nostalgia 😌 So many emotions flooded into my mind while listening to this piece 🥲 I love your rendition from 2008 and listened to it repeatedly over the years. It's my favorite cover of yours! I only came across this version recently and it's more mesmerizing, if that's even possible! This version is more refined and delicate with your progressions. Thank you, Kyle for recapturing this gem and sharing it with us. Your interpretations are stunning ✨
For years my life has taken a road I´ didn´t plan to take. Before Covid, it started when I had no one left to talk to, no one who gave me company, I´ve been pretty much been left all alone in my room since nobody tried to reach out a helping hand... Since that almost three years have passed and Covid took so much from me. From all of us. I started not to leave my house anymore for months, began to traumatize, cuz of things that happened earlier and went into a direction where I had to ask myself if this is the life I wanted to live. It still hurts to think about it, but listening to this masterpiece of a composition brought back a little flame in my eyes and gave me enough courage to hold in for a moment and appreciate the feelings I have been given by destiny. It may sound foolish, but music has always been the last hope I had, when the world was crushing over my head and buried me deep down under. I´m still working on myself, still walking this really hard road, but never giving up and thats worth a fucking lot. Won´t even imagine where I´d be without it, so thank you mate for this wonderful rendition of a heartbreaking and masterly composed song, that brought me back on track!

Simply one of the best tracks in Final Fantasy history, beautifully played Sir
dansg08 my man! Its great to see you like Kyle as well. I watched through your FFX Playthrough series which made me love the game. Thanks for the videos!
Indeed good sir
One of the best tracks in history*

RIP headphones users

Hahaha! 😍
🎼🎵🎶🎹🔥
Aaaaayyyeeeee ❤️❤️❤️
The nostalgia hit me like a truck lmao
Tell me about it, just the first notes and I started crying
@@Luissr94 Im out here crying like a baby
Ahh.. yes..Nostalgia.. The simultaneous best and worst feeling of them all..
are you protagonist of an isekai now ?
Isekai'd much?
I am moved to tears by this. It's not just the nostalgia, I've seen many covers of this song, but never such an incredible interpretation of it before. I am not a musician and I don't know the proper terms to express, but the way some segments were played with room to breathe and others played with such an intensity, the added iterations, the combined melodies, and most of all the way you play this so delicately and so passionately, gentle, but strong. This is masterful. This feels like the tide, like night and day, like all 4 seasons.

Couldn't have worded it better, I feel the same way.
13年前に主さんがアップされてたこの曲を、私は10年前に見つけてそれからずっと今日まで聴いてました。
そして今日、グランドピアノver.を聞けることを凄く嬉しく思います。
今度はこの曲を10年間聴き続けます。素敵な演奏をありがとうございます。
OMG!! This is the best piano version EVER! Soft, and it fills in all of the needed movements before and after the main movements ... HOLY CRAP!! ... man, you are very talented working around the melody as well as working your own extrapolation of sound and emotional intent.
YESSS
I saw this, and my immediate reaction was, "Oh no..."
I was right... My heart got a dose of nostalgia and I'm crying now.
Everytime I start FFX and FFX-2 I just sit there for 2-3 minutes and listen to the music, it's great.
Played like someone who really feels and can express something with the song, rather than just playing something someone else wrote. Absolute perfection.
What the--this is the most gorgeously arrangement for this that I've ever heard. What. The start of it alone literally took my breath away.
Isn't it strange? I mean the feeling of Nostalgia, you're somehow very happy, but also sad that those times are gone. But the moment we have experienced what we now remember wasn't that special for us after all, we surely enjoyed it but there is no emotional comparsion to what we feel when we hear or see something that we've experienced back then.

So breath taking. Don't know why this piece moves my heart in an instant. There's something in it that I can't explain

I am far away from my family, but your music makes me feel that I am with them, if only for a second, back home.
This madman. This brought back so many memories.
I am almost 30 now and played that game back when I was 11 years old. This tune reminded me of those days. I enjoy remembering them. Thanks for letting me remember what it felt like back then for a couple of min. :)
This is so true! My best friend used to play Final Fantasy but he passed away... This piece carries a lot of emotions for me.
Honestly feel teary hearing this, brings back a lot of memories. I used to sit on the title screen of the game just so I could listen to this over and over again years ago. Thank you again for bringing such joy to those who click on your vids
Same haha !
To be honest I didn’t like ffx2 but i sat at the title screen for hours just listening to this magical piece of art.. square Enix gave us great memories
Me too!!
Wish you could bring us more of those ultimate nerdy piano medleys. Those were the days.
Incredible, sir
can't believe this game came out 18 years ago, i feel old
I still remember its release day with the cardboard cutouts were outside the video games stores with the game stacked with its strategy guide in piles ... Good memories
Omg I think I was 15 years old when I first heard your cover of this song. Back before HD videos were a thing on YT. I’m 27 now and still listening and loving your videos!! The growth! You are amazing Kyle, keep inspiring us!
I'm also 27! :) I wish I discovered his channel earlier!
this is how i felt, i was 9 finding his first eternity cover now im 15 :')
I've never played any final fantasy but wow this is stunning
If you ever feel like it, i would recommend FF10. The world seems rich and lived in, with its dark duality, the story is heavy and warm with interesting main and side characters with development. It is my absolute FF game, and one of the best videogame stories in my opinion, even if it has a couple of tropes, localization issues and Japaneseyness.

(my first one was FF7) (not so much FF10-2, that tis track is from, to affected by the Charlie's angles era to not be overly cheesy)
Warning: you will probably hate the protag and the stupid laugh of one of the main side characters in the beginning.
After all these years, 4:44 is still one of my favourite piano segments I've ever heard. Glad Kyle did it justice. Amazing performance!
Indeed! This part was the one that made me realize the beauty of piano for the first time... while in my childhood...It opened my mind to appreciate piano covers and piano in general. Still remains my favorite piece since then,

Including basically all of your other songs as well). EDIT: oh wow. Didn't realize you uploaded this on the March 16th. That was my dad's birthday.
Wow. I didn't think this song could become more ethereal than it already was. So gorgeous. My heart is filled with nostalgia.
とても美しい音色で引き込まれずにいられません。原曲も良いですが、こちらはさらに素晴らしいです。涙が溢れてきてしまいました。
昨今の世界の情勢はとても不安定です。私は日本に住んでいますが、とても他人事とは思えないのです。利権や民族間の感情のもつれなどが複雑に絡み合い解決は容易ではありません。ただ、その影で犠牲になっている無力な子供達や女性達がいると言うことは忘れてはならないと思うのです。力を持つものは無力な人達のために、その力を使わなければならない。そう考えています。正義なき力は無力であり、力なき正義もまた無力です。
正義とは、それぞれの立場で変わってきてしまうことがありますが、正義の定義は弱者を守るものであるべきと思います。
そして、世界が恵まれない弱者の為に自国の利益を傾ける、この連鎖が始まれば、この美しい音色のような、素晴らしい世界が訪れるのではないでしょうか。I can't help but be drawn in with a very beautiful tone. The original song is good, but it's even better. Tears have overflowed. The situation in the world these days is very unstable. I live in Japan, but I don't think it's someone else's affair. It is not easy to resolve the intricate entanglement of interests and emotional entanglements between ethnic groups. However, I think we must not forget that there are helpless children and women who are sacrificed in the shadow. Those who have power must use that power for the helpless. I think so. Power without justice is powerless, and justice without power is also powerless. Justice can change from one position to another, but I think the definition of justice should protect the weak. And if this chain of tilting the interests of one's own country for the underprivileged and the world begins, a wonderful world like this beautiful tone will come.
NOSTALGIA IS HITTING ME SO HARD RIGHT NOW 😭😭😭
I would give multiple likes.
How many times did I let the title screen loop just to listen to this? I lost count. It’s just so calm and beautiful
I remember listening to Kyle's first cover of this when I was 14. Whenever I was stressed or melancholic, I would listen to this. It's such a beautiful, hopeful piece of music, and Kyle plays it so elegantly. I'm 21 now. There's a lot of memories in this piece for all of us.
Thank you for covering this again, I was waiting for it for a long time. You are a big inspiration to me. I hope to be as successful as you one day!
I am the first comment that you see in your original video. This is the life-changing song for me that it will remain that way for eternity. The waves of emotions that this piece can inspire someone is truly magnificent. It is beyond mellifluous. It is simple understood when you listen, and I get to experience this for the first time when I listened to it 14 years ago. Thank you, Kyle. Thank you so much!
Bravo, 5 stars, 10/10, S+, and absolute god-tier rendition of the original. Innovation at its greatest.
To think that a song could mean so much to me is something I wish for everyone, too. Keep it positive!
Today I found UA-cam had unsubscribed me from you! So happy that you came up on my suggested so I could subscribe again, I have missed and always looked forward to your uploads since I was in school! What a beautiful revisit to this piece too!
So weird! Are you sure you aren't just using a new account from before maybe? Thanks for the resub :D
I can never pay you back with what you have done to me with your UA-cam videos. Thank you so much Kyle. I will meet you one day ❤️
Kyle never ceases to amaze at his rhapsodic arrangements! Beautifully performed!
久しぶりのFFありがとうございます。とても素晴らしいです。

I especially love the FINAL FANTASY series and it really heals me.
I also want to listen to Joe Hisaishi's songs from Studio Ghibli.
Could he play "Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind" and "Legend of the Wind"? .. ..
Ahhhhhhhhhhhh thank you so much for this. Always been one my most-favorite-ever videogame tracks. FFX-2 was my first rpg... what a weird introduction, but I still love it. Absolutely not disasterrific
The nostalgia in this piece hits hard, and your arrangement hits me right in the heart. Beautifully played as always!

Makes me emotional...many memories and feelings for me too, time goes by so fast...I often comment saying something like "beautiful" and other synonyms, but I always forget to thank you, you don't know that but you are a life companion to me and probably to many others that spend countless hours listening to you. I really appreciate you, thank you.
Beautiful! This track is one of the motives I want to learn the piano
Magnifique interprétation
Beautiful ❤
The nostalgia makes me so emotional. Makes me remember my high school days. My nerdy friends. The memories. Seems so long ago. So much has happened since then. Final Fantasy was the stories of our childhood. It's timeless.
Your original improvisation of Eternity made me so emotional I cried. Now over a decade later... I'm crying again. ; v;~♥️
Commenting for the algorithm and because i love what you do brother!
This is one of the greatest piece covers I have ever had the pleasure of listening. This is the reason why I want to become a video game pianist instead of just another classical pianist.
Used to watch Kyle a lot when I was 9, life happened and my piano obsession waned. Now hearing him play my favorite musical piece makes me weirdly emotional.
This arrangement is perfect. You'll always be a legend to me.
Keep making videos Kyle! You inspired me to start playing piano! I’m now a Band Director in Florida. Fantastic stuff man!
He also inspired me to keep going at a critical point in time... Still playing piano today thanks to him.
why do I think this is one of the best pieces EVER composed?! Someone help
Brought a tear to my eye, so nostalgic and amazing performance.
🥺 its playing to my soul OMG i can't stop the crying 😭 my childhood
This music and river flows in you are best piano master pieces
I love to watch your fingers when you play. It looks silky almost as they glide across the keys, like water. This is truly beautiful. Thank you for blessing my life with your talent.
I'm walking down the aisle to this song in about 3 hours. Thank you for this stunningly beautiful cover of an already phenomenal song. 💜
I can't imagine a better arrangement that details all the nuances of how Yuna must have felt in the aftermath of FF-X. Thank you and amazing job!!
Very beautiful and lovely Kyle
From Japan!
I was very surprised to listen to this.
How beautiful your performance is !
I’ll keep coming back to this beautiful peace until I die. Your arrangement is the best out of all I’ve heard. The nostalgia, peacefulness, and emotion you put into this piece helps put me at ease whenever im feeling down or stressed from life. Thank you for sharing this with us!
It’s so nice to know that so many people share the same feeling for the memory of each one’s life, we are not alone, thank you
最初のこの曲はニコニコで聞いたのかな?ずっと聞いてます。
今も弾いてくれていてありがとう。凄く思い出の曲です。
また何年かしたらきけるのかな?そんな思いで今聴いてます。
I've come back to this video every few weeks since you posted it. Of all your covers (quite a few since I started following you over a decade ago), this is the one I want to just sink into and never resurface. Your music really is a gift. Thank you for sharing it.
(And if you're still looking for classic covers to revisit, my vote is for Passion; it was a real treat to hear it crop up in your KH/FF concert.)
Omggggggggg ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ the arrangement is OUT OF THIS WORLD!!
GOAT, may every blessing be upon you Angel
I remember watching you play this on your original channel in the early 2000s lol time flies
And just like that I’m a teenager again with hella emotions 😭😭😭
Thank you so much. For everything. 🙏
One thousand moments
Captured in a single song
Bittersweet and warm
Took me back to the good ol days grinding for my ultimate weapons
I was 13 when FFX-2 came out in the UK, I used to just listen to the start menu screen just to listen to the music. Brings back memories and tears, now that I am 31.
i remember staying in the screen menu for awhile finishing the tunes before playing
The sheet music for this piece is finally available on Music Notes!
Kyle, since you put this video up 2 years ago I have been obsessed. It is my favorite piano solo of all time. I have constantly come back to look for the sheet music so I can try to emulate the amazing work you've done here. When I saw the sheet music this week I nearly cried. Thank you so much for this song, as well as the countless others that you have shared with us.
Speed up to 1.25 if you want to go back to the Main Screen
I remember listening to your cover nonstop at that time. Nice memories of times gone by
This is beautiful...my favourite FF song
From the moment you recorded the first cover of Eternity and my friend Patrick linked me to your channel, I found myself listening to it over my surround sound in my apartment. I’d lay on the couch in the dark in my living room and imagine scenes before id write them for my book. Many of the songs you would play id used as background music for emotional inspiration while writing scenes. You indeed have come so far. I think we all have, and it is such a gift to me that you revisited this memory, as many people I have loved are no longer here for this version, but for some reason, this brings back the feelings that they are indeed here in the moment. This moment. Hope, dreams, and all. Thank you, Kyle.
I played the game 1st day. You still the Best Piano Player of this track. Respect from all ❤❤❤❤❤❤ i can get you. You be the Best
I just re-watched the older one the other day and then this happens?
Love you man!
This is awesome 😍 !!!
This song is one of my favourite video games song of all time. You remastered it like anyone else … you are the goat of piano cover ❤
Yo, same feeling when I first listened to your 2008 cover. You're still amazing.
Me and my little sister have been watching your vids since the beginning. After a gap of a few years, this video suddenly popped up in my recommendations.
i leaned on this piece you played 13 years ago, and returned often to seek a semblance of peace and beauty. thank you for still being here, for still making music.
Im a little older and i don't know this Game. But i know the pices for them. Wonderful!!! Thank you very much.
At least! Years listening this song with you, NOW REMASTERED! Thanks Kyle, hours of study with this song
2024 first listen. I'm tearing up.
I used to listen to your cover so much back in the day especially when times were rough. Thank you for giving my younger self a safe space.
I'm not even exaggerating, I think this is the best piano cover of any piece I've ever heard!
I was just listening to this song yesterday!!! Omg!! You're awesome Kyle! Been with you for 11 years with dearly beloved every year!! Forever a fan!!
😭😭 Thank you for being a fan all these years!
@@kylelandry Welcome!!!😁😁

i wish i cud just give you a warm hug .your music is just heaven. you are my favourite pianist .thank you for inspiring me and so many others
The nostalgia 😌 So many emotions flooded into my mind while listening to this piece 🥲 I love your rendition from 2008 and listened to it repeatedly over the years. It's my favorite cover of yours! I only came across this version recently and it's more mesmerizing, if that's even possible! This version is more refined and delicate with your progressions. Thank you, Kyle for recapturing this gem and sharing it with us. Your interpretations are stunning ✨
I can't believe you came back to this track 13 years, I must have added 200+ views to the original. Thank you.
I had played your old video of this countless times. Looking forward to more covers...
Love the attire. and the music of course.
I get so much nostalgia ojust by listening to it. Thank you so much for playing it.
So beautiful.....👏
X-2 Wind crist cover again please🙏
piano is by far the ultimate instrument
For years my life has taken a road I´ didn´t plan to take. Before Covid, it started when I had no one left to talk to, no one who gave me company, I´ve been pretty much been left all alone in my room since nobody tried to reach out a helping hand... Since that almost three years have passed and Covid took so much from me. From all of us. I started not to leave my house anymore for months, began to traumatize, cuz of things that happened earlier and went into a direction where I had to ask myself if this is the life I wanted to live. It still hurts to think about it, but listening to this masterpiece of a composition brought back a little flame in my eyes and gave me enough courage to hold in for a moment and appreciate the feelings I have been given by destiny. It may sound foolish, but music has always been the last hope I had, when the world was crushing over my head and buried me deep down under. I´m still working on myself, still walking this really hard road, but never giving up and thats worth a fucking lot. Won´t even imagine where I´d be without it, so thank you mate for this wonderful rendition of a heartbreaking and masterly composed song, that brought me back on track!
