A momentous occasion has occurred for FFXIII fans such as myself.

The pop queen that UK forgot, Leona Lewis, has for the first time delivered a live performance of FFXIII's theme song 'My Hands'



A bit pitchy but nice performance in the end. I initially didn't like My Hands (one of the weakest songs on her album tbh) but grew warm to it.

For reference here is an old live performance of the Japanese theme song



Also a bit pitchy. I prefer the Japanese theme song

Happy 10 years Lightning

I think the recording quality or whatever equipment they are using is real fucked up. I've heard her sing live before and she's great. That whole album that song is off of is pretty dope.

Oh, don't mind me. I'll just... continue to wait for FFXIII Trilogy Remastered.

Any day now, right Squeenix?

On topic: Performance was ehhh.

Really weird this happened on a Salesforce stream of all places. Man, this gets me nostalgic about FFXIII, one of these days I'll go back to it, I dropped out near the open world part

I always loved this song and when I hear it I instantly think of the one XIII trailer that has it playing for all of it. Ugh, where's my XIII Trilogy Remaster Square.

I also think of the video where Leona was playing the game (I think it was on Gran Pulse) but you can clearly see the controller isn't on lol

I remember watching that trailer countless times on my PS3 in the leadup to release. Good times.

A remaster might be in the works. Theres a branch of the PC version that was marked as "For Virtuos" 10 months ago, and they worked on the remasters for 10 and 12.

Leona Lewis is criminally underrated. She has a Christmas album that brings out Phil Spector vibes, and it's amazing
