So this is actually a rather difficult song for my voice, but Mitsuki requested I give it a go with the lyrics she wrote a couple years ago, so I gave it my best shot. Not super proud of the results, but I hope everyone enjoys it nonetheless :)

Also, with her permission I did modify the lyrics a bit. The original lyrics can be viewed here, or expand the spoiler below for my edited version.

--Verse 1

Dark and sleepless nights,
Untold stories within your eyes,
Deep in every tear,
Shines a soul, so troubled with fear.

Hearts of stone will break,
Shattered, glistening in your wake,
Remnants of the past,
Torn and lost in shadows cast.

--Verse 2

Listen to the drums,
Sounds of silence and rhythmic hum,
Warrior of the night,
Come and claim this flickering light.

Guard your fading heart,
Tear the beckoning gloom apart,
Through the mist you'll find,
Strength, your soul no more to hide.

--Chorus

Close your eyes and dream of the shores that you long to see,
Waiting for your return!
Winds will blow away all your tears, troubles, deepest ache,
Rise, for you’re not alone!

Share the distant cries of a memory that’s left behind,
Time is your way back home!
Let the sound of waves,
Crush your foes and with all your strength,
Onward and onward, go!

--Verse 3

Home and free at last,
Worn and weary of battles past,
See beyond the night,
Golden clouds with luminous light!

Birds of paradise,
Bear the soul of this valiant life,
Spread your wings apart,
Homeward bound for a brand new start!

(Repeat Chorus)
 
That's mental! Amazing, Luke! Tried it myself quite a while back, it's a tough one! I think Mits even mentioned all three of us collaborating! :lew:

So I'm not the only one she's put through it, eh? I demand Mits do a cover next, then :mokken:

No, but really, thanks :)
 
I agree, Mits should do one too! Mitsuki

She didn't ask me to sing it, I did it myself. I would force you to sing a song too though, considering you can pull anything off. :lew: So I cannot blame her!
 
Luke, you are amazing! I love it, and the revised version sounds really nice, especially towards the end. Love it! I was singing along, for sure. Who knows, maybe I'll join along and record it. :) Thanks so much for doing this - it really made my day.
 
You're welcome, glad you like it! :)
 
lol holy shit man this was awesome :0 I'm so saving this so I can listen to it later xD

Only time I've heard someone actually sing lyrics to a song from IX aside from the Roses of May one :0

I wanna hear mits and kira sing this too XD
 
It dips too low at some points for my vocal range. It really is a hard song to sing. xD

I'll post other samples though. I still have the ones recorded for Smule app. Disney and Les Mis.
 
That was wonderful!! You have a really nice voice! :D I was definitely singing along too ^_^ Thanks for singing this, I really enjoyed it!
