So, last month 'My Hands' was announced as the FFXIII Theme song (in the US & EU, Japan has a different (better?!) theme sung by Sayuri Sugawara) If you haven't heard it, here you go:

So.. what do you think?!

Personally I'm not a huge fan... Leona Lewis isn't generally on my playlist, and the thing that bugs me about this song is it doesn't have a FF feel about it, its got a 'Leona' feel about it (...she has an awesome name though!!) I can't see how the lyrics can really go with the game, Its very very obvious that the song was not written for the game, and I assume, =must have been sourced separately.
Now, Obviously I don't know in what context it will be used in the game.. it may turn out to fit perfectly... but at the moment, I'm just not convinced.

Just for the record, this is the Japanese theme song

Now, unfortunately I'm not nearly good enough at languages to understand a single word, so I can't comment on the lyrics, However, it sounds like a FF song to me... more... beautiful (for want of a better word)

Thoughts?!



This two videos are gone and one good reason to stop using youtube. They are cyber terrorist who get you thinking they are friends then blow you up. Both those people had not one reason to have their accounts destroyed except for greed.

JUST SO NO TO YOUTUBE
