« As soon as I discovered Amaurot and its musical theme, I was captivated. This city with its art deco and melancholic yet futuristic and inspiring aesthetics… This is typically my world. So I knew immediately that I had to launch this cover project. With the help of my brother Kevin and my friend Vega, we were able to create this unique arrangement with meaningful lyrics. And it was also an honour for me to perform with such fantastic musicians as Tsukino, Nile and Suna. I’m really touched that these great women trusted me and agreed to lend me their talent. It”s like we are the four warriors of light in this project haha, together now and maybe again in the future! »
I also want to thank the team behind the video, the mix and the in-game footages for their wonderful work, dealing with pretty fast deadlines and always carrying about the project. The full team counts people I truly love and respect very much. So a big thank you to my friends for being part of this.🌹

LYRICS (english and french subs available)
Like an echo that none can reprise
Like a hero yearning for paradise
Like a morrow bereaved of sunrise
An afterglow of hope and its demise
Tread our memory, imagine our prime
Bathed in glory, how high we used to climb
Our eulogy, forlorn and sublime
Tolls quietly, drowned by the sands of time
Under the mask, one spark of warmth bravely prevails
(Not letting go to the end)
Familiar voices beckon you to bygone trails
(Reunite with new old friends)
Rest for a while — here, you can dream away the past
(Our sun has set, please come back)
Lingering on until we draw our last
Hear this timeless melody, lullaby of truth unsaid
Keepsake of their pledge
So it sounds in this haven of phantoms and fallen
Our swan song, this lonely serenade, oh
Thus trembles eternity when destiny bares your blade
Step up on our stage
Reflections blissful in prayer, we wait for redemption
Oblivious, bound to your stories' shade, oh
Comme d'hab que du bonheur pour les oreilles et la vidéo est franchement stylée 👌

Que demander de mieux que cette masterclass a ecouter en boucle en spotify
holy moly this stacked team, from all the performers to the mixing and production.
this is so beautiful it makes me cry 😭
Elle est incroyable vraiment ! L'idée d'avoir rajouté des paroles est génial ! Elle à un petit air de "To the edge" en plus doux
It’s so amazing.
Magnifique ! Quelle épique équipe, j'imagine des longs métrages ou des projets de ce genre avec vous à la musique, d'ores et déjà des classiques ;p
This is so amazing 🤩
this is like the more melancholic version of to the edge it's so good. are these lyrics fanmade or official? i don't recall but they're perfect and capture the sorrow and bitterness of emet-selch, with a twang of hope.
FF14 is the best story.
Music is a treasure chest.
I love all the musicians on this movie.
Thanks for this collaboration and edit.
In love with this 🤍🤍
Great thanks, girls… ❤
