Once again, a special thanks goes to all the amazing guest singers who took part in this, each of them fantastic in their own way. And even more so to Denmo, who did a formidable job with editing this beast of a video. This project would simply not have been the same without him.
Please check the description to find links to both the singers and Denmo's YouTube channels, they're filled with so much wonder. Some of them even uploaded their own versions of Close In The Distance!
And also, a huge thanks also to the 1000+ of you who contributed to our rendition here.
I'll try to credit them here in the comments.
Allow me to channel some additional aether into this!

Thank you for doing this! It was an absolute honor to be a part!
I'M NOT CRYYING ! YOU ARE !
Absolutely beautiful. Thank you to you & to all of the community members who came together to create this wonderful rendition of one of FFXIV greatest songs.
Your video is crap
The ending got me … well done guys. 👏
I cried.
Whispers falling silently, drift on the wind
But I hear you
Our journey now a memory fading from sight
But I see you
Unbroken, promises we made so long ago
You're still here
Unspoken requiem for the river of tears
Flowing, winding, toward eternal sea
And yet our hope remains
Guiding, lighting the way
No time for mourning
Rises on a land reborn from the ashes
'Neath the heavens'
To sunset blood-red skies, tranquil after the storm
Blessed shadow
Turning, wеnding, always night follows day
The sun will shine again
Walk on, nevеr look back
Through you, we live
Tales of loss and fire and faith
Every word on our hearts engraved
In the dark you will not stray
Forge ahead, till the end, we pray
Champions of the rift have certainly heeded Alex's call. Amazing and truly dedicated work, to include so many into the lb3 chorus.
This is amazing work!
