What will happen to Answers?

[Amrita]

I like "Answers". In fact, every time I hear the section that starts with "Walk free" I get chills.
I think it would be a good end of 1.0 song to play, too.

I myself, find parts of the song kind of corny sometimes <_< I'd be happy with a new song. One by Hansi Kürsch of Blind Guardian in a duo with James Labrie of Dream Theater.... (but that's just me!)

[Kowen]

Hopefully 'Answers' will be removed from the game and replaced with something not so cringe-worthy.

Walk free, OP.

Yeah, we need something like Distant Worlds!

Sheez eenvait een a eveneen sahn....♫


PS: Distant Worlds is my favorite FF vocal theme. Just don't complain about the lyrics in Answers, please!

Mmmm. I like it. Except for that bitch-face Susan Calloway.

While i agree what he says except his use of words towards the woman i liked the song till she started singing.

I liked the song.... until 3 minutes and 31 seconds the guitar rifts begin and that's when I muted it.

So Dalamud finally hits, and this music plays as everything is in flames and turning to shit, fades out to "see you in 2.0".

I think this music would fit that scene, Do'ett Yoshi-p.

I saw Susan Calloway at "Distant Worlds" in NYC last year. She performed both Memoro de la S^tono/Distant Worlds and Answers. I remember being very annoyed with her rendition of Distant Worlds and slightly annoyed by Answers (even though that is 'her' song). I also didn't think her voice was very good. ALTHOUGH... some vocalists are great on stage and some are not. A live performance is always as good as the vocalist can sing on command. (Basically, this is my way of saying I didn't like her voice, but I'm willing to give her the benefit of the doubt if she is meant to be a recording artist and not a performer.) I like the song, though.

I see it being played during the cutscene where Dalamud drops to the ground. At the very end (after the climax of the song), we'll see new life growing, people rebuilding their cities, etc. It will be a nice 'hopeful' end before they shut the servers down for the time it takes them to start up 2.0. It is, after all, the conclusion of one 'storyline'. I know we don't think of it that way because it isn't an expansion, but we ARE getting to see something that no one post-2.0 is ever going to experience.

I remember listening to Answers a lot when FFXIV first came out. I thought it was a great track and the lyrics really captured whats great about a MMO. Working together and those who have accomplished feats helping others.

I think it is a good anthem for FFXIV and hope it stays.

Also I think memoro de la stono is a brilliant track. I haven't played FFXI for a while, but this song captures everything I loved about it. When I hear it still get goosebumps. I think Answers will someday have the same effect.

And these tracks a good because they were written for the games, not like some Leona Lewis track grabbed from some album.

maybe they should have had Adam Lambert sing it.

Not that i care for adam . . . not my style of music. But maybe this would have been a better song for ffxiv's release and opening scene. haahaahaahaaaaaaaaaa.

I'd actually like to hear Izzy Cooper sing for a FF title...
