To the legendary people who chill out to this song after all these years, I salute you 💜

This is how a Sunday afternoon should sound everytime ☺️

Back in 2000, cancer took My dad, playing this game helped me not thinking about that. Bye dad I still love u.

ff8 had everything. light, dark. romance, comedy, hate, jealousy, politics, friendship, time-travel. this game is a gem.

This is my son's bath music. The nostalgia of this game while experiencing fatherhood is everything

This right here is a good reason why FF8 is my favorite game in the series

My almost 3-year son fell asleep to this song on our road trip to visit family. Kind of a full circle moment. Final Fantasy’s music is unrivaled.. such nostalgia from playing all the games when I was a teenager.

Imagine a peaceful world where people were walking around your humble town being friendly and generous to each other. The few bad seeds were known and avoided but never treated like a lessee human being only treated the way they're deserved. Everything is peaceful and no one is scared to be out in public or alone in public. A world where people can enjoy others company and be genuinely happy with their lives instead of feeling the need to grind their lives to death just for some green paper. The oceans are calm the skys are blue. You can wake up without anxiety of the everyday stresses. Wherw happiness comes from the heart rather then the dollar. The real happiness. The world I want to go yo when I die

One fine and hot day in 1999 at the beginning of the school holiday. Still remember clearly when I reached my living room, just throwing away my bag and playing this game until 6 without changing my uniform. My mom's screaming was the only one that could stop me from playing. Just another day in 1999 as a student in Jakarta, Indonesia.

I still remember when 2 of my brother playing this ff8.. I like to watch only bcoz of the soft n breezy music..when both of them still teenagers.. Now both of them alrdy 30s.. Really miss tht time when we are still stay together wth family..

Reminds me of simpler times♥️

I'd play this game sixteen hours straight back in the early 2000's until falling asleep in this town just standing around. I'd run the game time up like crazy without a care.

When I die, my Heaven is literally gonna just be me waking up in Final Fantasy 8.

Ff8 is a masterpiece and Breezy has something magical in it, the add of the balamb pier background its just amazing. Awsome work!!!

aah,my teenage days. back then,i never worry about times running out.

Disc 1 of FF8 may be the best FF has ever been. Balamb garden and town are such realised visions. The whole thing goes off the rails a bit in the late game IMHO. Good thing I never managed to get beyond disc 2 as a child.

This game had the most beautiful soundtrack and ambience that i ever heard. It was like a dream.

cant stop crying while listening to this its so beautiful

After all these years i can speak proudly and brag that FF8 got the most unique OST in all FF History . 😁💙👍🏼

I feel this song sitting at the lake of Lugano in Switzerland at the tiny harbour. It is peace.

I remember. I had only just recently got this game. The sheer beauty of that coastal town. I had had a fight with a friend recently, I thought that friendship would be over. This song made me ball my eyes out. It convinced me to message that friend. I still am friends with him now. It inspired me to take action. I am forever grateful for this small costal town right down the road from the balamb garden.

My heart...

wow does this ever bring back memories of being too tired to turn off the playstation on summer nights back in the day. and just going to sleep to this exact soundscape. sometimes i'd wake up and play for a little bit and save my game before getting breakfast

Sitting here in the office on Thanksgiving holiday, alone, chilling to this

First song I learned on guitar.

The best jrpg ever made. I miss games like that

I love this song very much. It's a part of my life. I've been listening for decades Until now.

Special shout-out for the screenshot used. The opening scene of Squall in the infirmary with birdsong floating through the breezy window creates such a positive tranquil vibe!

when i listen lofi music for relax our mind, and find the melody similar this song bring me here. love this !!

I guess almost everyone can relate to that song in some ways. It's the sounds of coming home, to our small village where we grew up. We remember where we're from who we used to be and who we are now. A sweet mix of memories and melancholy and yet, a place where we will always belong. Thanks for the upload :)

I agree. This song makes me feel the feels lol. Lots of time in this game helped me escape a pretty shitty child hood

Ah... not sure how I ended up here, but it feels like a summer day in the early 2000's 😌

I just started this game and I stayed in this town to just listen to the music while I did house chores. I don’t know what’s going to happen yet, but I hope I can still come back to this peaceful town and listen to it’s music. ❤️

My fave game of all time. I put this to go to sleep. It's lovely.

So beautiful, fresh and cool. Like spring afternoons .

I used to listen to this song when I couldn't fall asleep, playing some rounds of yahoo pool. This song to me is the definition of nostalgia

Ff8 was one of the best final fantasy games ever made hope we get a remake one day before I die if not well it was fun while it lasted

I really want my eventual nursing home to sound like this

The first time I played this game, I instantly fell in love with it, the soothing relaxing music, the way the characters looked, the scenery and background, everything was perfect in my eyes, I simply love the elegance of it all, so peaceful.

One of the greatest "chill out" themes ever!

Thank you Hamasaki san for uploading this music including the seagull & ocean wave sfx. Plus you dont monetize this. What an amazing people you are. Very appreciated

pretty much the theme for the summer of 2000. God I miss those days.

Almost 2022 and still chillin out to this song

Wanna listen from the start? 0:00 also, nice to listen to when your alone or can’t sleep! I wasn’t even born when this game came out, but I got to admit, the soundtrack of old PS1 games are nice to listen to!

Absolutely love breezy, used to leave my playstation on for hours in town just so I could here this play over and over, now that we have music streaming I listen to it on repeat on my phone to help me sleep, but now that you put this video out with perfect balance of music and ambiance this will work wonders

I played alot of bgm from ff8 to my baby girl when she was in moms belly now this is what she loves to go to sleep to. My life is complete I’m so happy I get to share this with the kids

C h i l d h o o d

Been listening to this since it's release till now nearly every since day. Never gets bored with this. It helps me to relax and puts me to sleep. It may sound simple but to me it's a masterpiece.

Anyone else totally pass out on the couch while at Balamb Garden as a teen? Lazy Saturdays 🍃

I can barely remember the details of the story now since I played this through only once way back in 99, but the music, locations (and card game!) are burnt into my mind. FF6-9 were the pinnacle of JRPGs IMO.

why can I feel the breeze and the water splashing in my face. Just so relaxing.

This image... is it really from Balamb town? I think it's in the infirmay in Balamb Garden, where Squall woke up right after the intro. Why I do remember that? Something about that moving curtain... and the gentle breeze... EDIT: Just checked, it IS the infirmary. The fact that you chose this image literally makes you my soul mate.

I listen to this while I cook breakfast in the morning and think of being in Balamb town, a small peaceful town.. A place I’d very much like to end up someday..

This theme represents my thoughts after leaving my old home. Where I can finally be myself and live the life I want. To finally experience being the person I want to be and to express my personal emotions clearly. The boy who loved this game is now the free girl who loves this theme

I beat FF8 for the first time recently and I loved pretty much every minute of it. The music especially

Finally someone included the birds and waves!!

This is Cozy's jam. Nice to listen to this in the mountain cabin, away from people, staring at the mountains. Is super cozy. Thank you fren for posting this, it makes Cozy's day/night.

I need this as a 10 hour loop I can fall asleep to. Can guarantee good dreams if I hear this in my sleep.

Possibly the most loopable song in history

i hear footstep while hearing this song :D

Just listening to this song conjures up the smell of the room I used to play this in (I think my Dads aftershave??), new Dragonball Z episodes straight afterschool, knocking on freinds houses seeing if they could come out and play footy (soccer, to the yanks). Such a wonderfully peaceful and striaght forward existence.

I really like listening to this in the morning

Can I go back to my childhood? In a way, yes I can. Thank you for this. :)

暖かな休日の朝から聴きたくなるようなBGM　最高です！

OMG How Have I Not Found This Until Now?! I’ve been looking for a really long loop of this exact track with the ocean, wind, and birds in the background! ✨Thank you So Much for this loop! ✨

If my childhood had a ost it would be this one.

So much I love about this! Beautiful background image too, wish someone more talented than myself could recreate the images inside Garden. They're so beautiful.....

what makes FF8 so very special was the music, characters, story and gameplay ofc which i know some will not agree with me but thats just my own opinion i will always be devoted to FF8 and had been since its release back in 1999 i still have my original ps1 japanese version 4 black discs of it... still have all the accessories esp the Lionheart/Griever necklace

Omg why does youtube have everything..i love this peaceful sound track.

I enjoy the tempo Im not a nostalgia junky, I click on these videos to leave a note. I still have the game and I can always listen to the song. The Algorithm is the most competent manned tool we have in the tool box right now

It's all about love, man This song is all you need

i remember I would spend hours sitting in the town just to hear this music. makes me so happy and peaceful. :)

i play this song in the guitar but without seagulls and waves its very diferent...:! seagulls and sea is doing hard work here, i will try to find some seagulls and sea sounds and i will play then with that sounds in the background

thank god for Uematsu im so happy he invented music

wow... that beach ambiance is unmatched

Its everything you didn't know you needed and then some.

Tantos recuerdos al escuchar está canción, mi juego favorito sin dudas. Gracias

best music to chill out

This song always puts me at peace...

Can't hear this without remembering when Galbadia was occupying Balamb, In order to get inside the hotel, you had to track down Raijin who was supposably sleeping somewhere. Then, you find that he used Zell's residence kitchen to cook the fish that he caught. Also I think Lulu and Wakka from FFX was reminiscent of Fujin and Raijin.

Balamb town or fisherman’s horizon seem like comfy places to live and retire in

"Eden" is a fitting name for this channel because if you were to translate a word into an ambient sounds video, THIS video would be what you got by translating the word "peace".

Great Uematsu sensei who was made this sound

I’ve always had a thought since I was young when I heard this music to retire to a small town like this just live my life enjoy fishing, some good beer and friendly company. That’s what this song reminds me of.

Just what I needed

This sounds a lot like a Chrono cross track. One of the best pieces in the game.

Loved this game as a 12 year old. Fast forward 23 years and I'm now playing this to soothe my baby daughter during night feedings.

CALMING.

I played this song for my hs guitar class final. Thanks for the A Nobou Uematsu!

This just makes me so happy

Thank you for this

The whole og squaresoft era of FF is chock a block with banger after banger game but for me something about ff8 just feels like it's really homely compared to all the others i've played and that's why i'll always cling to it the most of the bunch

I needed this today. I look outside into my apartment complex and see people walking and just imagine the town of Balamb. The ambience is so perfect. Thank you for this

When my life is nearly over then i would happily drift away to the next world, in Balamb town.

Thank you for this amazing job.

Please accept my deepest thanks for putting this together!

What a great choice of gif, lovely.

This is great. Breezy is one of my favourite tracks to listen to while I'm doing work. Thank you so much for the upload. Cheers!

I dunno about you guys but i hear a bunch of cats having a party at the beach and that's really cute to me

Gods bless you, you saved my mind and heart.
