It was such a strong emotional process helping produce the instrumental for such a beautiful song. Gives Cross My Heart a whole new lens to look through and I’m honored to be a part of it ❤

[HalaCG]

This hits so hard. It puts the whole narrative into a completely new light and I love it so much.

[ethangumbert]

god, the first rendition of this song was like Dabi was venting his anger, showing the world his never ending rage, but this one you can feel the pain that Dabi has been put though. Simply beautiful.

[DizzyEight]

Literally one of your greatest pieces of work bro

[Cami-Cat]

THATS WHAT IM TALKING THIS SOUND IS JUST---- SO UP MY ALLEY. It's such an emotional tug and then kicks you in the gut. You did such a fantastic job goodness.

[AMAN-AEVILZ]

I am really emotional hearing this reimagined version ... I mean so much emotions are connected with "cross my heart" For both fabvl and his fans....Thanks @Fabvl and @Divide Music

[CynTheSilliest]

This is absolutely wonderful, the vibe that it gives off is completely different from the original, never had so much chills listening to a song

[zamontaesswift]

Its really hard NOT to feel sorry for Dabi.. Everything about this song makes you wanna cry! This hits like his Flames 😭

[HLLBUND]

You can hear the raw emotion in this song. The original is fantastic, this is a masterpiece.

[kingslayer]

The original was already so amazing, and it's metal/rock style made it an instant favourite and 'on repeat'. It always hypes me up, even to this day. Now, it's been remade into a softer, more emotional song that somehow is still amazing in that it really reaches deep to put forth the emotions in Dabi/Fabvl's word (that manga readers love). You've taken one amazing song and turned it into two absolute bangers, hats off to everyone, keep being amazing, Fabvl. We fans will keep bopping.

Wow. I'm honestly stunned by the powerful words in here, and the relatability of the emotion in the lyrics and instruments. I've been struggling lately, both with the animosity between me and my parents, and the fear of losing my job due to unfair circumstances, and it's been causing me severe anxiety and pain. I truly could not have asked for a better time for this version of the song to release. I know it's but a humble donation, but I could not be more thankful for the comfort this song as provided me. Thank you, truly Fabvl, for this inspiring and compelling song.

[OrangeRoll]

Fabvl, Jeup, Divide, and everyone else who worked on this, you truly out done yourselves! Amazing work to everyone! This is a mastpiece of project and all the hype lived up to what you produced! Fabvl I watched and listened to you over this last year and a half and you have gotten nothing but better and better! Each song is better than the last! Truly, this is why you are my favorite artist!

[PurpleShoww]

I must say, thanks FabvL, thanks for all the songs you've made. But this one, I don't know how but, this is a whole masterpiece, a piece of art.
I've been struggling with so many feelings recently and this song is helping me to find peace about it. Thanks to you, I'm propably healing now. It's hard but since I heard this song yesterday, I really feel like I'm growing up 🌟

[ThatAmethystWitch]

I'm not crying. You're crying.

But seriously, this was just....absolutely beautiful. Everyone involved in this did an amazing job <3

Cross my heart was what got me onto this Channel. I will forever love this song and nothing has beaten it for me. When he got to the rap part I woke up my entire house with how loud I was screaming the lyrics. I’m sorry family but FabvL is worth it. Thank you for everything. For every tear you’ve made me shed for every laugh I’ve had for every moment I spent with my family just jamming to you and divide. Your my inspiration for when things get tough and your music is the shoulder I use when I need a good cry. Thank you for bringing music into my life once again.

[RamenEnjoyer]

It's incredible how just changing the tone can completely change how the song feels, and still hit just as hard

[AkandeRagnarsson]

Fabvl, You know how different You gotta be to make your inner demons pray? The effort in you put into your instrumentals & your vocals doesn't just make us feel the pain, it almost drowns us in it. & if You think you still got somethin to prove to us, NAH... Knight this man the CROWN. 👑 Man brought down armageddon & is still putting Opps 6 feet under.

Following the 6th season, Dabi became my all-time favorite character from any show I've ever seen. I remember hearing Cross My Heart when it first dropped in 2020 and being obsessed with it, as the anger expressed really fit the character. Now that we've dug deeper into his backstory, hearing Cross My Heart Reimagined does not only show the original version through an entirely new perspective, but it also shows the pain Dabi had to endure throughout his life and fits that feeling perfectly.

With both versions of the song you've made, I can picture Dabi producing this himself both before and after the reveal in the 11th episode of season 6. This is truly a masterpiece, and the way you projected the pain that Dabi would feel if he were a real character makes me want to cry myself. I want to say that he could've addressed that pain in any other way, but I'd probably do the same thing in his shoes. And that's beside the point; the child he was growing into the person he is truly adds a lot of mystery to the entire My Hero series.

Horikoshi doesn't focus the entire story on just one character, he targets a large cast of characters, spicing up the story with a plot, multiple subplots, loads of mystery, and even a spin-off manga series. Seeing fans make fanmade songs truly adds on to the masterpiece of a series Horikoshi created, and having such talented fans out there makes me proud to be a part of this large fanbase, even as exhausting and strange it can sometimes prove to be.

Keep up the good work, Fabvl. I love your stuff and I hope you come out with more reimagined versions of the songs that were already a masterpiece. I honestly did not think the original Cross My Heart could be made any better than it was, but you have proven me dead wrong with this remastered masterpiece of what was (and still is) a masterpiece.

I enjoy how these two versions of the aong kind of adapted to Dabi's personality throughout the arc

When we meet him he seems cold, relatively apathetic, impulsive but contained. The original _cross my heart_ fits that impersonal but dangerous energy. He has a past and it clearly is part of who he is. He answers to no one, and who he is is none of your business if you're not fuelling his flames.

As the story progresses Dabi becomes far more tragic, far more chaotic. You find out not only what his past is but why it fucked him up so badly. He becomes more hectic, out of control. Desperate and unhinged. He's in pain. And everyone's going to know it. Even if he has to burn the world to the ground.

This version captures that progression really well. More emotional, raw. An edge to it that says "it's been personal all along."

I found a couple of the vocal transitions a little bit abrupt/incongruant but otherwise i cant really find much to dislike here.

Two awesome songs for a great character, thank you for sharing this with us

And the video is absolute fire as well, kudos to Jeup who rarely seems to miss

[richardbaran]

This is like a tribute to Dabi... I swear I got shivers from just the start of the instrumental....🔥💙
Like why does this hit so hard to me!! 😭
