Some Sunday morning, drinking coffee music.
This one is for all of the Hero’s of Sanctuary who gave all in fight with the forces of evil.
So cold and lonely it seems so long since someone was here
Following the shadows, with the sun till it disappears
Thousands of stone white crosses, a formation for all to see
With flags and flames, the ranks and the names of those who died to be free
The fire remains in our hearts all of our dreams made new
Etched in the flames of freedom, we’re living on thru you
We’re the shadow soldiers, laid to rest standing tall
Shadow soldiers, in freedom you live
That’s why we’ve given it all
Taken too soon from the lives we loved a misery I can not explain
Only when we feel your presence are we sure we did not die in vein
The fire remains in our hearts all of our dreams made new
Etched in the flames of freedom, are these words, oh so true
We’re living on thru you
We’re the shadow soldiers, laid to rest standing tall
Shadow soldiers, in freedom you live
That’s why we’ve given it all
The fire remains in our hearts all of our dreams made new
Etched in the flames of freedom, we’re living on thru you
We’re the shadow soldiers, laid to rest standing tall
Shadow soldiers, in freedom you live
That’s why we’ve given it all
Shallow soldiers, laid to rest standing tall
Shadow soldiers, in freedom you live
That’s why we’ve given it all
This live was just… unbelievable!

I don’t know nothing about FF14 (game or the community), but It’s fabulous ^^
The original meme dance that created by a bored guy within 20 minutes:
You see the developers’ shirt color in the first video. It is represents the role of Tank (Blue), DPS(Red), and Healer (Green).
Your music tastes in the creative and jazz in music means you are either a converted young fella or we’re both around the same age. Lateral taste in music is not something I see a lot of these days (Bows).
EDIT
Another one from FF14 Band.
I like this one as well.
At the 2:16 timestamp of this video, the whole band kinda froze for few seconds and it was because this very song was played during the in-game boss’s fight, the boss use its ability to stop the time flow for everyone, so the music stopped as well.
I was a live producer in Europe (Sorry for the traducation), and I think it was one my favorite surprise.
Come on!
Another FF14 song from Primal band.
This song is special because it was created by the lead composer of FF14 when he was diagnosed/battle with cancer in the hospital without letting his team knows about his condition. Due to the COVID lockdown in Japan, so they didn’t see each other for many months, so his team just thought that he was working at home. Only a few selected people such as FF14 Director know about it but decided to keep it a secret because the lead composer requested it.
By the time it was revealed at Live Fanfest 2021, all the clueless team members were kinda mentally broken and cried on stage when he revealed the past.
That is why some lyric in the song hits harder and different as if the lead composer trying to tell himself to stay strong and fight to the end.
What is so amazing about this performance is upon clicking play:
It appears this is a deep love song for a woman’s love lost.
But listening to the lyrics one understands it’s all about growing up in his birth state of South Carolina and moving on as this young man is traveling the world now playing music and writing beautiful songs.
He owes much to his home, hearth and family upbringing, which is where this amazing song comes from.
You are amazing Marcus King!
