Josiah Everhart | Final Fantasy VI - Terra (cover w/lyrics) @JosiahEverhart | Uploaded 9 years ago | Updated 2 hours ago
Hello, friends. Today, I've decided to revive an old favorite of mine. Terra's theme is one of my best arrangements, but I've never been satisfied with the recording quality. As such, I was always apprehensive about telling people to go check it out. I've finally been able to record a version that is mostly up to my standards!
On that point, there are some changes happening with my channel.
The first thing is that I'm going to be completely changing my recording process. I have a friend here in town that owns a small recording studio and I've decided to enter into a sort of partnership with him and start recording my stuff over there. As a result, there will be a substantial boost in upload quality from me. I'm finally going to be able to create music that I can be truly proud of.
I'll be transitioning my camera gear over there and will be filming in the studio as well. This video is the first (and hopefully last) one that I have done where the video was recorded AFTER the song was done. So that means that nothing you're seeing is live. I prefer to do live takes and will get back to them once I get settled into filming at the studio.
As a result of not doing live takes, there are a few parts where the video doesn't match the audio 100% so please forgive me for bad lip syncing, haha. I'm not used to filming this way.
As I mentioned in my recent update video, I've decided to retire the "boozinwalsh" brand and just go with my name; Josiah Everhart from now on. If you want more info on this, check out my last update video, but the short version is that I don't think boozinwalsh is suited well to my style of music. My music may one day reach beyond YouTube and I'd much rather see "Josiah Everhart" on a concert ticket stub.
Finally, my good friend, Ian helped me rebrand my whole channel and got rid of all those ugly thumbnails I was using for my videos. I love the new ones and I hope you guys dig them too! Go tell him thanks: youtube.com/user/WallyCharbie/videos
Again, I just want to say thanks to you for sticking with me this far. Your support means so much to me.
Composed by Nobuo Uematsu with lyrics and arrangement by me.
LYRICS
In the frozen hills, in the cold night
A stranger holds your hand as he prays for daylight
A pounding at the door and your forced to take flight
Don't look back
There are evil men who want to take you
They'll bend you to their will until they break you
So just stay close to me, I won't forsake you
Take my hand
When the things you've done make you wonder
Why the world you loved was torn asunder
Don't let your guilty mind drag you under
Let it go
And though the sun may rise for the last time
Into the bloody sky you will climb high
Don't fear what lies ahead, we'll stay by your side
Until the end
