Flyby KH wondering
So. I'm listening to Destati (the version where you can actually hear that words are being sung), and I've found the lyrics, and now I'm curious.
The song is about/to Sora, right? A lot of it makes sense - you hear it when he's getting poked at in his dreams in apparent preparation to receive the Keyblade, and the stuff about awakening and extending your hand to receive fits with that. Even the stuff about doors opening is, yeah. Doors opening is a large motif in Kingdom Hearts, and Sora does some opening of doors along with the locking of them.
But what's with the lines about remembering? I mean, you don't just stick this kind of heavily mystical lyrical imagery into a significant part of the game and not have it mean something, especially when it touches on important themes from the series. What is it Sora needs to remember? What is it he has lost? It makes perfect sense when it plays later for Roxas, but not so much at the beginning when you've just got little Sora.
Is there some kind of... I don't know... essence of Keyblade wielder that gets passed on to kids with suitably strong hearts, as a sort of pseudo-reincarnation?
Actually, come to think of it, that might even make Sora's intro line from the beginning of KH1 make some sense at last. "I've been having these weird thoughts lately. Like, is any of this for real, or not?" If there was some kind of hand-me-down essence thing going on with the Keyblade, and it was just about to wake up in Sora, some feeling of subtle disorientation would make sense; suddenly his own reality has shifted slightly, and it's throwing him off.
... oh, dammit, I think I've bunnied myself again...

Omgawd. A friend is playing KHII, and she's been recording Sora singing and stuff over MSN. Christ, man... XDDDDDD It's so awesome. She sent me the Japanese version of Under The Sea, too, and... My throat hurts. We can't stop laughing... his dorky little
gayboylaugh, and SUBARASHI UNDAH DAH SEAAA~. *cough* Felt like sharing.no subject
XD XD Isn't it just... crazy? Man. XD XD I love Sora's little dorky laugh. And yeah, JAPANESE UNDER THE SEA IS CRACK.
The Japanese version in general is kind of cracky, to be honest, when you're used to the English. XD kh-vids.net has all the cutscenes in Japanese, and wow.
