Final Fantasy XIV – FLOW, performed by Amanda Achen, the original singer!



Love Flow from Endwalker? Watch the actual singer perform it! ✨🎶💕

Hi, it’s Amanda! It’s a total HONOR to have recorded such an epic an impactful song in the Final Fantasy XIV legacy, and I am proud to bring you this very intimate and personal performance!

This song and these lyrics are SO meaningful, so powerful, and of course – in true Soken style – incredibly (tear-jerkingly) gorgeous.

(Yea the rumors are true, I had to cry out ALL my tears before I recorded this song for Soken 😭😭😭)

Stepping into the character and “voice” of Hydaelyn was a beautifully cathartic journey for me during this recording process.
I trust that the spirit and message of Flow
comes through, offering hope, light and love all who listen!

Love, Amanda Achen
(AKA, Your Crystal Mommy 🤣💎🥰)

  1. This song made me so emotional the first time I heard it, I cannot Imagine any other voice doing this song. I can see your soul was giving us the message with your voice. I want to listen to more of your work!

  2. Very cool that they let you use the same recording as in-game for this! Is it true you did the production on it yourself? It came out great! Also, do you think you'd ever do a collab with Susan Calloway? Would be amazing to get both our crystal moms on one track <3

  6. "Streams, Rivers, and Lakes…" and "I'll catch your tears" I don't know what it is but the way you deliver these lyrics is so powerful, chokes me up and brings the tears every single time.

  7. Superb work as always. I can't wait for Marco Meatball to get to the point where he has context to match this song. I imagine he'll have much more to say then & want to reprise his chat w/ you.

  9. My partner in crime who I played the entire game with passed away in February, and I've been broken ever since, not healing properly and in need of serious help
    But your voice, this song, it gives me moments of calm and piece of mind, a little oasis in my heart I can sit and cry in and feel almost normal again for a bit

    Thank you for such a beautiful performance

  11. One of the most meaningful songs in any video game that I've played in my 30 years of gaming. This, Close in the Distance and Dragonsong are untouchable to me. Beautifully done Amanda!
