- Here's an extended version of the Forgotten City theme, performed by me on harp!
I sometimes imagine an alternate universe in which Cloud, instead of purchasing a snowboard, invests his money in property management in the Forgotten City. People always point out Costa del Sol or Icicle Inn as the ideal vacation spots of FFVII, but think about it: the Forgotten City, revitalized as a prime tourist destination!
Rest and rejuvenate in a quaint, cozy hut once inhabited by the ancient Cetra themselves. Gaze upon the majestic crystal towers of the days of old. Go for a serene swim in the cerulean lake that Aerith's mangled corpse floated around in.
....I may need to rethink my pitch.
Composed by: Nobuo Uematsu
Performed by: Harpsibored

This piece sounds like it was 100% made for harp. I hope Nobuo-san gets to see this someday :)
I would die. Thank you 😍
A song that evokes one of the greatest tone shifts in gaming history. Good job on capturing the eerie foreboding in this piece!
Thank you! Not sure what you mean though, everything that happens in the Forgotten City is...fiiiiiiiine...........................
Surely the greatest tone shift in gaming history is the one that comes shortly after, when Cloud & co. ski down the side of a mountain collecting balloons and dodging snowmen despite having tragically lost their comrade just a few minutes earlier?
Let's be honest, that was even more jarring. Tonally, FFVII is all over the place.
@@Harpsibored Aerith Knew She Would.........Die
This is hypnotizing in so many levels. It helps me a lot to concentrate while I'm working and it is, in the same time, hautingly beautiful. Everytime I pay more attention to the music, I get a different detail - an unheard echo or even the noise of the strings being played that kind look like a tickling clock or a metronome sometimes and bring an immediate connection with the Rebirth version.
Ever wanted to live in a song or in the ambiance that it generates? This is one that makes me wonder how would it be.
Thank you so much, I'm so glad to hear this helps you concentrate 💚✨️
Truly worthy of the Lunar Harp itself.
Thank you! Hopefully my videos take less time to find though 😂
@@Harpsibored 10/10 would wait all night for more results like this. Do you do your own mixing and mastering? You get such a rich tone. Is this a home studio?
I feel dumb because I thought this was called the Forgotten Capital....I love this.
That's a fair mistake. Come to think of it, most iconic FF location songs are just named after the locations 😂
One of the best songs in the entire game hands down
Agreed 💖 underrated eerie banger
Simply amazing. The tune itself is still haunting, but the sounds of your harp make it really calming. Ideal for listening to while writing on stuff. Thank you for the 1 hour version too, and keep it up.
Thank you so much, glad you like it ❤️ yeah it's interesting how the harp can slightly transform eerie tunes. Will try and do another similar one within the next few weeks, maybe in time for Halloween. Hehe.
Was thinking I need this on repeat forever but an hour is good.
Hah, maybe I should make a 10 hour version sometime. It would probably take longer to upload on YT then the video itself.
Just loop the video 🤷🏻♂️
Even without the scene that follows, this is absolutely mesmerising. Beautifully haunting, otherworldly, divine yet ominous. Thank you❤
Thank you so much 💖
Alright.... now for sure I think you should do Valkyrie Profile covers
I would, if it weren't for that &^#$# pizza
@@Harpsibored what pizza?
I’d like to let you know that I used this piece and several of your others as mood music for my recent D&D Underdark campaign. Your harp is such a lovely instrument and it fit very well in the proud but sad society of the dark elves.
Thank you so much, I am honored to be the background music for an important endeavor!
The Cetra were ahead of their time with that waterfall TV technology 🤔
This is beautiful, it's always good to hear you and your clone do a duet ☺️💚
Yeah and that crystal altar was LIT. I can see it as a prime selfie location.
@@Harpsibored Just wait til I start Final Fantasy nerding out on some 3d printing. That alter might manifest itself into a reality in time!
🔴🔵🟢☄️😵💥 🗡🥀 Glow in the dark crystal alters ftw!
Honestly the fidelity of the screen is awful though. Lots of fuzz
A song that fills me with dread played on an instrument that fills me with joy
Well played
I'd like to think it all worked out 😂
Brilliantly captures the pure essence of what Nobuo Uematsu created. This interpretation is flawlessly done and very passionate. Thank You very much!
Thank you!!! 💚
With hands full of soap and clutching a knife now and then, ( just washing dishes) I listened to this, but upon listening, I couldn't help but realize how much of a big deal I make things when I shouldn't. I envision Cloud raising his sword to poor little Aerith there in that moment, and it makes me wonder why I've always been so hard on myself about stupid things. It makes me think of when I recently went on a trip where we had to drive next to a cliff by the ocean with the vehicle so close and next to a thousand foot drop at many points throughout the hour, causing my hands to sweat, then I imagine Aerith floating belly up like a skewered fish. I imagine the cliff next to me again, then I see my living room where I'm safe. Gaaahhh, this track is so bittersweet, but I love it! I erased so many things from this post, but this song is so reflective to me, it's hard not to just ramble on for days. I need to be careful here hahaha. Thanks Harpsi for this self reflective moment due to this extended version. It makes me think about how short life is and we shouldn't be so hard on ourselves over meaningless things. I think I've become a better person after this somehow. Thumbs-up as usual.
👍 👍 🎶 🎵⛰️ 🚘🌅 🔴🔵🟢
Thanks so much dude! Always honored to be the background music as you imagine skewered fish. Yum.
@@Harpsibored Haha you're welcome! 😁 🐟 🔥 🍽
Either you played this Theme for an hour or you looped it perfectly. I didn't find the Loop yet (16 Minutes in).
Also you nailed playing this alternate version. First i thought it was just an extended upload of an official Track :D
Thanks for this beautiful, calming (yet haunting) piece of art
Yeah she played it for an hour straight fr fr on god no cap
Listen guys, I have a life. I did not sit there for an hour straight playing this song. It was several hours. I needed that long to get the takes I thought were worthy of looping.
Life = GETTING THE SONG RIGHT AHHGHHDAJFKLFAD
@@Harpsibored which translates to ABBGBBDAJFKLFAD :p
Cette musique est toujours autant incroyable, bravo Harpsibored
Thank you 💖
Thank you so much for this.
Thank you for listening!! 💖
Nyaw, damn. I got lured in. Guess I'm here for an hour then! :)
Yay, welcome! Sit down for an hour, enjoy with a drink and try not to get skewered by Sephiroth.
@@Harpsibored Thanks! :D (back again)
This is seriously my favourite version of this song including the ost. You really knocked this one out of the park! Keep on Harpin'!!
Thank you so much!!!! 😭
"I sometimes imagine an alternate.." haha thank you!
One can dream. Thank you for listening!
This is a thing of beauty!
Thank you!! 💚
Perfect!
Thank you 💕 glad you like the extended version too!
Didnt realise how closely 'Seven seconds till the end' this sounds like. Amazing haunting piece
Yes, this is the song being referenced in that sequence! Thank you! 💖
この曲は本当にハープにピッタリですね。ハープはグリッサンドをたくさん使う楽器ですが、このアレンジはとても素敵で美しいです。他の曲も聞かせてもらいましたが、これがベストと思います。グリッサンドは使いすぎないほうがいい曲もありますから。これからも楽しみにしています。
聞いてくれてありがとうございました💕そうですね、この曲だったらグリッサンドなどはあまり合わないのですね。原曲の暗い感じが伝わるように、飾り的な音を加えずにそのまま引いてみました。
Thank you for loving Final Fantasy songs. As a Japanese person, thank you from the bottom of my heart.
これからもよろしくお願いします🎵✨️
Beautifully played on a beautiful sounding instrument.
Thank you 💕
Wonderful.
Thank you!! 🎵
Ohhh this is beautiful! Well done!!!
Thank you god of mako 💚🟢
@@Harpsibored you are welcome!
Amazing. I always thought the original sounded very eerie and disturbing but you made it sound so beautiful and peaceful.
Thank you! While I agree the original is eerie there is also something weirdly soothing about it, which is why I think it translated to the harp so well 💖
This is such a good remix from the original!
Every time I hear this I am so hyped for FFVII Rebirth.
Thank you!!! ❤️
If there's one thing I can answer with 100% certainty in this world, it is that I love this song.
💚
Now I can listen to this whenever I work at home. Beautiful ! 👏😎
Yay! Thank you for listening!! 💖 I have a few other extended FF tracks as well (including Breezy from 8!). Feel free to see the playlist for more if you want: czcams.com/play/PL0mac6CZyN_vARRPYbbbidSth1mKLJLuR.html
@@Harpsibored I will make sure to check it out :)
Had me at the first chord. Amazing. I'm a guitarist myself and can appreciate the incredible arrangement. Thanks for posting :)
Thank you so much, glad you like it 😊🎶
Had to listen to more of this. Definitely one of the best songs of FFVII. Plus, I love your vacation pitch for the Forgotten City! Maybe just leave out the part about Aerith and you're good to go! 😉
Thank you for listening ❤️ nah, I'm all about transparency. I find that if you've got a corpse you left in a lake it's bound to come floating back up someday.
This song puts me to sleep every night. Thank you
As someone who suffers from insomnia, I'm super happy to hear that ❤️
This song was made to keep you woke though.
I favorite this the other day on my Spotify. I have been working on a high fantasy novel for young adults and up. Depending on the mood, I'll loop repeat certain songs. Two Steps from Hell / Thomas Bergersen, to Alex Moukala. Yesterday I completed a segment of my most recent chapter to this song on your Spotify. I love that you will share an hour long loop of your music on CZcams, becuase with Spotify there is sometimes a bit of a pause between the loop.
But this was on loop repeat yesterday for me via Spotify and I have also listened to Terra's theme / Awakening you have shared. So thank you for being one hell of a muse!
Edit: I'm not sure if Spotify has metrics on your end, but if yesterday it says this song was listened to 562 times by one user, yeah haha. This song fit perfectly for the mood of a deep ocean environment.
I don't know if there is any harm in asking, but from Xenosaga Episode 1: Der Wil Zur Mact? I believe been awhile, on PS2. Are you familiar with the song Kokoro? I'm by no means a musician, I can only write and sculpt sand. But would you maybe consider giving it a listen? I'm not sure if that would work on a harp? Is there a policy for requests? Haha.
-Richard
Wow thanks dude! That's super flattering!! Harp and high fantasy sounds like a fantastic combo. Hope your project keeps going smoothly.
Yeah I love listening to looped VGM as I work or drive, it's so soothing. Btw, I did try to upload the 1 hour long versions to Spotify too and I had technical issues with it (I may try again in the future though), which is why they're only on YT right now.
Thanks for the suggestion! My only song request policy is "I'll listen to it but no guarantees because life" hahaha. I generally do mostly FF just because I have such a strong personal connection to the series, but I'm always open to listening to other tunes. You never know what'll inspire you. I'm not familiar with any Xenosaga songs but I'll listen, who knows!
@@Harpsibored the title is Last Songstress of Mana, the characters and their relationships are something I'm excited to share. I always enjoyed writing prose and poetry, just it's hard to fill a bread basket on that alone. So then I explored telling stories punctuated with poetry and prose. Final Fantasy XVI soon! A return to Chocobo riding? Fingers 🤞
I run remote Astrophotography equipment very late at night, for my business, taking photos of the night sky and deep space. This is my go to for background music while I run my systems. :)
Ahh that's such an awesome compliment, thank you so much!!! I love listening to meditative FF tracks like this one at night too 🌛🎵
@@Harpsibored Right, but to do so while imaging the literal universe itself. The lifestream of all know living beings.
@@billlong7146 sounds appropriate ❤️
The tourist spot might still work well if you market it as a sort of haunted-house-but-it's-an-entire-city perhaps also mixed with the allure of something ancient.
That aside, great loop as always and thank you!
Haha I can imagine a bunch of obnoxious teenagers deciding to hold a séance in the Forgotten City and accidentally summoning a malevolent Cetra spirit. They all die, except for the virgin. That would make a great spinoff game. DO IT SQUARE
@@Harpsibored Yes, enough of this remake and Crisis Core stuff with Cloud, Square! The spinoff game is what I'd want to play!
@@Harpsiboredwasn't that what happened in Hellmasker? Or am I thinking of Death Gigas? I'm not into those scary movies.
I needed something to accompany/soothe my melancholy, so... *exhale* ahhhh... Heavenly. I could just.. close my eyes.. and float in these waters.
Hope you feel better 💕
@@Harpsiboredthank you. When I was about to drift to sleep, goddamn YT hit with an ad at the end!! But hey: it means you're getting income, so I'll allow it. And I nodded off afterward, anyhow.
Sorry dude hahaha. I turned off ads in the middle of the extended videos so as not to be a huge dick, but they're still on for the beginning and end. I need moneyz
@@Harpsiboredoh trust me--I appreciate it SO much! Let them ads run on both ends; but leave the lovely content alone. There's another channel I just can't listen to anymore, because he's got ads breaking into his medleys every five fricking minutes!! Nope!!
Still listen to this way too much.
Glad to hear that 😍
There's another song that handles the atmosphere pretty similarly from FFIX. The theme called Memoria.
Yup, Memoria is also on my bucket list in a very similar vein (a harp duet with 1 part doing that meditative, repetitive portion and the other one doing melody) 💖
Aerith > all
Hear me out
Cloud's snowboard > Aerith > all
😄
In ancient times,
Somewhere inside the Forgotten City,
a Cetra poet plays this tune,
Awaiting the impact of Jenova's meteor,
Lamenting the cries of their people and planet.
Damn man that's deep 💖 I'd like to recruit you to work on our Committee for Advancing the Tourism of Forgotten City. I think you'd make some killer brochures 👍
If this isn't in the new ffvii remake part whatever blah blah they are doing it wrong.
That is high praise 😭❤️
