I present to you a cover of the Cosmo Canyon song from Final Fantasy 7.
This cover was inspired by:
1) The Final Fantasy 7 soundtrack, obviously.
2) A 'Healing Ceremony' video I put together during the pandemic.
https://youtu.be/xgYDLNjNYbA3) The Mind Orchestra community and its many wonderful resources, meetups, challenges, and events.
http://themindorchestra.com/ 4) The sounds of the storms that pass through my area which I incorporated into the song. I am learning to appreciate them more and more as time goes on - all sounds, actually. Sound healing is such a wonderful and underappreciated skill and activity.
This was by far my favorite part of the game, and every time I replay it, I make it a point to read every bit of text and watch all the cutscenes. Cosmo Canyon holds a special place in my heart and spirit, as do Nanaki and Bugenhagen, and their stories of wisdom and creation. This truly set a foundation in me for all things spiritual, and also pique my curiosity for Eastern traditions and spirituality, which has blossomed over the decades. I owe much of it to this fantastic game and its amazing soundtrack. The imprint it left will be there forever.
Lastly, I plan to eventually do the original song justice and make a proper cover. This was just for fun, and to capture the moment. But someday, hopefully soon, I will do it right. Let me know what you think in the comments!
Thank you for watching (and listening)! ?
