Beyond the Sky | The Perfect Music Track for the Game Ending | Xenoblade Crhonicles

Some time ago I had the opportunity to play Xenoblade Chronicles on Nintendo Wii. It has been one of the most spectacular games I have played, its history, characters, ambience and music of the game, make you live the story as if you were there.

From the first video sequence of the game, you are engaged with it and want to know more and more. A story that is told in a unique way, but the fact of training to level up the characters, makes you have to wait to advance and know more. Although I'm not going to talk about the game, I want you to understand that, if you haven't played Xenoblade, you are missing a story that was perfect for me and that made me explore every part of the game for a total of more than 100 hours of fun.

Every great videogame must have a soundtrack that brings to life the magic of each area where the story takes place, and Xenoblade was no exception. It is incredible to see how great musicians come together to create those sounds that bring video games to life. Orchestras that play with passion, musicians that play each instrument full of inspiration and that when you listen to them all together, there it is, the magic that gives life to video games.

If you don't believe me, watch the next video, The main sountrack of the game. Notice the passion with which the musicians play each instrument, they know that this song will be heard many times during the journey that each gamer will have, so why not put passion into it? Enjoy the melody while you keep reading.

I must confess that while listening to that and other songs from the game, it was inevitable not to relive the good times I had with the game. A story that tells you the war of two worlds: The natural and the mechanical. I don't want to spoil it, but it's inevitable since I'll mention the song at the end of the game, so keep reading at your own risk. I promise not to include spoilers.

Xenoblade Crhonicles, apart from its main story, shows you the connection of many of its characters and among them the main characters, who have a deep love that pushes each one to keep going. At some point in the game, something happens between them that marks you completely and you begin to say things like: I've only been playing for a few hours and how is it possible that this happens, but your desire to know more and more makes you keep playing.

As you advance in the game and reach the end, your head can't take much more information and then it happens, that maybe you were waiting for it, but it happens in a unique way, the main character couple standing there, after endless battles, anguish and not knowing if they would ever see each other again, begins to sound a song that makes you cry from the first verse. When you finish listening to that song you realize that your attention was on other aspects of the game and that in the end each of the protagonists was fighting to be together. Simply a perfect song, with beautiful lyrics for a story worth playing and spending hours on.

The song is called Beyond the Sky, a song composed by Yasunori Mitsuda and written by Tetsuya Takahashi. The voice in English is interpreted by Sarah Àlainn. But I don't want to talk about this song anymore without you having the opportunity to listen to it so, here it is and I hope you enjoy it.
