I got this song on a download a while back and it rocks! The problem is that I have no idea what the history on it is. Was this something that was released on a special edition soundtrack? Who sings it? Anyway know anything about this?

Okay, then, will then somebody post who has an idea? Gawd, don't post if you don't have any idea, you just waste everyone's time.

I'm not sure, but I think this song is also known under 'Galway no Sora'.

Vocals/Lyrics/Music: Shiratori Emiko

English Translation to this song:

Gazing at the overcast sky
What will reflect in my black eyes?
Keeping my sadness hidden deep inside my heart
A journey will begin

>From the train window, the scenes I see
Are all unfamiliar things
A flock of white sheep crouches
Galway is far away

A stone wall that continues far
Repetition of wind and mist

I wonder where the birds fly to
Carrying the tune of love on their wings
Come out, light of dreams and hope
To the distant path I long for
Please take me there

Towards the sky, by the rising tower
Seagulls are playing freely
This time, which I will not return to again
In order to make the most of it

The memory of thousands of years
A stone cross that watches over

The river flows and pours into the sea
The hearts of people are healed by love
Come out, light of dreams and hope
To a town I have not yet seen
Please take me there

* Repeat *

Look up in the sky


I hope, I could help you a little bit with it. :)

Sky of Galway/Galway no Sora was a special song that came on the Melodies of Life single disc. It's a completely original song that doesn't borrow at all from the themes from FFIX and, like Melodies of Life, was performed by Emiko Shiratori. I think there was also a male voice, but I don't know who that was.
