English cover - Tales of the Abyss Op "Karma" - Amateur Tempest

- It's been a while since I wrote English lyrics and although this one took close to a week to complete it was fun tackling this cover. Because the original translation was difficult to work with, I tried to stick with themes in the game which I think worked out better.
Karma is on my side this time... I hope... We will see...

Lyrics:
A single glass bead that felt to the floor
I went to pick it up but then felt one more
But when I search the place that light hit
it’s seems only one has made it
My heart beats in this moment in time
All I think about now is my true crime
I just want to be free now
Live a normal life somehow
So now I must face the sins of my past
endure a suffering that’s yet come to pass
If the memories I hold fade away
all I need to do is find my own new way
Surely I know, that in the future we will meet
Use our hearts as a guide and then our journey will be complete
I am calling for you
Though you’re far I will see it through
Even though there are many reasons that pile on to say not to live
Even in birth, you have much to give
Life’s even where the eyes cannot see
It’s given me some time on how my life should be
The two of us may share a birthright
But only one can see the light
That single glass bead that felt to the floor
Another thing came out I couldn’t ignore
And now I have my own path not depended anymore
I remember I was counting all day
At some point the numbers made me all haze
I was made to believe in one thing
That between zero and one ain’t nothing
For the first time, I know that we will meet
Follow the signs and all those in the way will know defeat
So you cannot forget
I’m here without any regret
Let us bury all those nasty reasons so that we can start to build
And that is when, our promise will be fulfilled
We’re a reflection
Reveal our imperfection
But know that karma is there to connect us
So each time our tainted hands connect through this mirror glass
I feel my sins become past
I am right here for you
We are close I can feel it too
We are both here in the sun that is not meant for us two
Let us both enjoy the sun before we join to start anew
So please do not forget
I’m here without any regret
I’m calling from within the very same glass bead from than
I do now know for sure, that we will meet again
Build a bridge upon the sunken reasons strong enough for us to run
So that our promise is truly done
And we can finally become one

I'm a simple man. I see a Karma cover, I click.
I have to give kudos to anyone who attempts to write their own English lyrics for Karma since it's notoriously difficult to accomplish.
I know right, I took a while and at some point, I tried to refer to the game which helped a lot.
I was about to say you know a game is loved when you see a cover from an unknown cover artist from 2000s but this is from 2 months ago and it makes me so happy edit this males me happy
I can't deny that I really loved the game (the anime was great as well). And it makes me happy to know you enjoyed the cover^^
Tales of the abyss is the most emotional tales of game in the series
Luke vs Asch is such an amazing battle
Indeed. I believe in a survey from bandai, abyss was also ranked highest. Personally, though I'm a bit biased towards symponia
@@amateurtempest symphonia was my first tales game and one my favorite
@@EVERYWHERE_MAN Same here^^
This was a great English cover! You did such an a amazing job on it
Thank very much you. It took quite a while to get everything done to a point that I could say that it was good enough
Very few artists I've heard make good English covers, either the singer is trying too hard to do something they can't or the lyrics have terrible flow, but this is definitely one of the best cover's I've heard ever. Actually sounds like the original artist but you clearly know your singing strengths, along with the great lyrics. Would definitely want to hear more.
Thank you very much. I hope you will enjoy my other covers and future covers as well
“We may be Replicas but we’re people too”
Well spoken.
Amazing cover, amazing lyrics, nicely done!
Thank you so much^^
I wasn't sure I was ever going to find a cover of Karma that I really resonated with, but this really does it for me! Fantastic job!
Thank you. Glad to know you finally found the right one.
That's the most beautiful Randation of that Song i've ever heard😢
I am very glad to hear that^^
Ohh nice work! You're really good at singing 👍
Thank you. Thats means a lot!
I find it amazing how you translate songs to english... i can't even properly translate a single verse 😂
Thanks man. I appreciate it. I usually seek out other translations as references. I used translations like TYRecords for example and try to make it my own. I think with a bit practice you can do it too^^
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 Well done!
Thank you very much!! :D
Wow. This guy sounds like the original Japanese singer.
If only the sound quality was better, the lyrics are so awesome
Thanks. I'm still a bit clunky with editing my audio but good to know you enjoyed it^^
@@amateurtempest brother you HAVE to make this again when you understand audio software better. I've heard other English covers for this song but they haven't managed to convert the Japanese lyrics with such feelings like yours. Others' seem like they're just singing the translation but you've done a great job with rhyming and metaphors.
@@AbsolAhm Ty. I'm still learning but I can consider doing a re-cover once I'm better at it
"I was made to believe in one thing.
That between zero and one ain't nothing."
You genius motherfucker! XD
I just got done beating Tales of The Abyss on an emulator with the HD Texture pack, this was an amazing treat to find so soon afterwards. I love this cover so much.
I happy to hear you liked it. Did you enjoy the game as well?
@@amateurtempest Absolutely, I'm on my second playthrough now and am using a guide for the side quests!
I wish you could somehow remove that electric guitar. I feel that would add back some of that emotion.
Who knows. Unfortunately I'm not skilled enough to make my own instrumental
I ff feel this fov😢
Fov?
Did you add in the second guitar verse after the first?
I didn't. Was included in the instrumental
I'm still working on the video but because I have no school I can get it done faster
Great. I'm looking forward to it. School here is almost over as well, so I should have some more time to do other stuff by then.
@@amateurtempest schools has been I nightmare for UA-cam
@@natsubrony I feel you. But luckily it's over.... For now...
@@amateurtempest want to see what I have done so far
@@natsubrony Sure. If you have something you can show I'm curious to see what it is.
Do Bloody-Stream from Jojo Bizarre adventure
Interesting. I'll see what I can do. I have another request planned for next week but I'll see if I can do it the after that
Dare to do the opening theme of Tales of Xillia called Progress.
You don't have to dare me XD. I was planning on doing pretty much all the Tales of songs at some point. It will come at some time. But thanks for asking^^
@@amateurtempest You have a lady singer on your team?
@@croc560 nope, just me. Altough I do sometimes do collabs.
I. Love you Korea avlyn and nelly
What?
Lmao cringe
Welp, at I made you laugh XD
