Final Fantasy VIII- The Landing Cover by Lacey Johnson

Hey Everybody! I am so excited to present my cover of "The Landing" from FF8 to you all today! This piece is one of my all time favorites from the franchise! I've always loved how the piece begins so ominously to reflect the tone of the mission in Dollet and how the feeling develops and takes on this triumphant quality as we complete the mission! I decided to throw in small pieces of "Fithos Lusec Wecos Vinosec" as well for good measure. I first debuted this arrangement at Super MAGfest 2022 this past January! Anyway, please enjoy!

Song: "The Landing" by Nobuo Uematsu

0:55 is when it gets REAL!

2:14 is when that piano goes off!

Amazing as always! Now if you will excuse me. Time to shamelessly loop this video for 100 plus listens lol.

The way you did every part of this is so good, infact this is one of my many favourite tracks from FFVIII and you did this beautifully, I also loved the little vocals you did aswell, that was a nice little touch.

[k-Noodles]

So I'm having that experience when you find a new youtube artist that's awesome and you get to experience the joy of binging their entire back back catalog rn. I had a feeling something was gonna go right for me this week.
