This talk page will be used primarily for OOC notes. I will list some of the songs, here, which I use for performances and RP.

Disclaimer: I'm no song-writer, myself! Of all the material I use in character, I have exactly ONE poem which was written by me: The Tale of Kupuri Kap.

In order to make up form my own inability to write music, I do borrow from various sources, and this can be from a variety of genres. I am, however, very careful about which songs I select. If a song doesn't have a certain sound, or if the lyrics don't fit the game's setting in some way and can't easily be altered to work, I don't use it.

First Annual Royal Ball

For the First Annual Royal Ball event, it was suggested that we (myself and Elan) use songs from Distant Worlds. This presented something of a challenge. While all of the music from Distant Worlds is remarkable, most of it is still instrumental, and then there are a couple of tracks in Latin, namely, One Winged Angel and Fithos Lusec Vicos Vinosec, neither of which really seemed to... fit the setting of a happy occasion like this one. Some improvising was necessary.

In order to complete my list for this event, I tapped other sources within the realm of Final Fantasy, most of which I'd even forgotten about. The songs used are listed below in no particular order.

  • Eyes On Me - Final Fantasy VIII/Distant Worlds
  • Diamonds In My Heart - Chocobo Racing OST
  • Into the Light - Final Fantasy: Pray vocal collection
  • Pray - Final Fantasy: Pray vocal collection
  • Kiss Me Goodbye - Final Fantasy XII OST
  • Love Will Grow - Final Fantasy: Love Will Grow vocal collection
  • Melodies of Life - Final Fantasy IX/Distant Worlds - This one was performed as a duet between myself and Elan, at the request of Erik Mynhier.

About the duet: It took 8-9 macros for EACH of us to complete this song, with cues built in. Elan said it took about 5 hours to build all of the macros and test them to make sure everything flowed smoothly. I'd say it was a success!
