I love Melodies of Life in every form. I really like the singer's voice. Galway was new to me, but likeable.

This is sort of strange to be quite honest, so I'm not sure how to put it but I'll try. This is the song from Final Fantasy IX as we are told, and I have been somewhat delighted/disappointed - but that's for later. What this contains are three versions of Melodies of Life: Japanese, English and instrumental, and Galway no Sora. I won't pretend I know Japanese so I don't actually understand the lyrics, so what I will say is that the songs are well sung. The English version is actually well pronounced and certainly understandable without scouring for the lyrics. What I find odd are the discrepancies of the title song itself. I also have the 4 CD version of the FFIX soundtrack which also has a Japanese and English version of the song. This single release contains the full length English version; the soundtrack has the short version. Oddly the opposite is true for the Japanese version; short on this single but long on the soundtrack. Very strange. This may sound negative but it is a good song I feel; it's just that the various versions that are available makes it somewhat annoying. A good CD single still.
