One of the fondest memories was Sitting down with my Older Brother and Sister (at a time where we never could decide on anything together) sat down and beat Mana with 3 controllers and the multitap from bomberman that my dad spend weeks tracking down. I never told them how important that time was for me.

I 've been 25 years younger for 27:13 min... Thank you Lara.

A game like Secret of Mana play with almost every human sense, the immersion is unbelieveable. The story, the gameplay, the music, everything fits so well and that's why, imo, we all love it. It is a true masterpiece in every aspect.

"Color of the Summer Sky" is the best town theme in any RPG.

This entire track listing had me in a heap of tears, and I mean that in the best of ways. Transported me back to much simpler times. Thank you so much for your magical gift of music. Bravo.

The soundtrack for this game is such a hidden gem. This medley is amazing and I love how you encompass just everything that makes these songs so beautiful. NGL, a lot of my favorite composers are from video games.

Great job Lara, this brought me back to my childhood. Secret of Mana was my favorite rpg and game in its time and is still the one i like the most of all. Keep up the good work. Its great that talented people like you exist and are willing to share it with the public.

There's a subtle melancholy to all the Mana titles, both in music and plot

That Dark Star version left me speechless, it's so full of energy! Now I'm trying to learn to play it watching you playing it.

This is very well done. Secret of Mana has my second favorite musical score behind Final Fantasy VI, and just ahead of Final Fantasy IV. The old school Square games for Nintendo always delivered excellent music.

She deserves more viewers and subscribers 👏

“I watched as you walked away from me, and I knew it that you were never coming back, but in these short passages through the days gone by- I will always remember our time together . . ” Sincerely ~Your Childhood

It's a bitter sweet joy listening to this wondeful music. Brings back certain memories of my teenage years. Especially the time of 1997 when I was 14. It was the time when you could see the comet Hale-Bopp in the sky. I played this game with a friend I went to school with. We played a lot of games at that time. SoM caused a lasting impact. The game is adventurous und touching. At the beginning of 1998 my friend moved away and we never saw each other again. Now 23 years past and every now and then I wonder how he did in life, where's he at right now... So every now and then I look up stuff about SoM on KZfaq and bathe in memories.

"Color of the Summer Sky" is one of the happiest songs i've ever heard. It makes my soul smile - and the way you play it is just magnificent. Ive never heard it until your stream yesterday. Im glad i was able to hear it again here. Thank you for sharing it! - Strike Eagle

This really took my back to being 9. My parents had just divorced, and life suddenly didn't seem as secure as it used to. But renting of mana and playing it with my younger brother for a week straight in summer time made me feel like everything was OK again. Almost 30 years later, I feel like I will always remember that.

You rock, love it all, but “Into the Thick of It” and “A Wish” are my favs.

It was great to listen to some of my favourite songs from Secret of Mana - thanks for taking the time and passion to make such a great piece of work.

Color of the summer sky 😍😍😍🥰 Wonderful ! Makes me feel 13 again. Thx for this

すごく感動しました🥹✨ 素敵な演奏をありがとうございます！

cool...nostalgie....c'est super! You continue to make live a passion of my childhood or you sublime it, continue with your heart and do what you wish above all! kichmaster

This is beautiful Lara, keep going you are a very talented person. Thank you very much!

Very good. I feel the emotionality. goosebumps🙂😮 .... Like im a child and playing that Game now. Awesome 🙌

HOLY CRAP THIS IS REALLY FREAKIN GOOD!!

Amazing job on a bell is tolling - my favourite track from this amazing game

wonderful music played by a great pianist

Very well done. I'm 41 and this brought back memories. Thank you.

I can be the happiest person on earth and fondest memories can reduce me to a wail.

These are all terrific but your cover of Dark Star is the best version of that piece I've ever heard.

AMAZING Lara !!! you nailed the dyluck come home!!!

My childhood soundtrack. Can't believe me and my brother finished this game in Japanese subtitles when I was 9. We can't even understand a word. We just take hints if there's something going on base on the character's expression and we talk to every people we see and if the dialogues change, we'd be suspicious about it. It was cool. I played it again few years ago with English subtitles and I really don't know how we manage to finish this game when were kids. Lol

Can't describe what i feel while i hear these songs, about to shed a tear !

This video is terrific. Such passion in each performance. Made me pull out my old SNES and give SOM a playthrough.

Your music is so relaxing and beautiful.

This is beautiful, keeps getting better throughout the video and stirring some 20+ year old sensations. You rendered and embellished all aspects of the original themes perfectly : softness, rhythmic dynamics, drama... I have much appreciated many of your other interpretations but this, Madam, is balm for the heart!

Listening to you again... Wow... Reminds me of me playing this wonderful game enjoying the soundtrack.

14:50 "ice wolf gets WHACKED!" ...True

Kikuta really liked polyrhythms which makes this soundtrack a particular challenge. Well done!

Secret of Mana 1 will always have the best music

The Dark Star version is OMG...you can listen to it and meditate ... wow beautiful

Schon so oft durchgespielt. Jede Träne wert. 🌈

lemme be real, "Into the Thick of it" will give me chills no matter what version i'm listening to but this is one DAMN FINE version

I really liked this arrangement of Color of the Summer Sky :)

When color of the summer sky ended i imagined a huge crowd spending applause and i was literally applauding too.

You beautiful human being, I was brought back to age 14 when I thoroughly demolished this game.

I really have to play the game again. It is now 20 years since my last complete playthrough.

This is seriously amazing, I would buy this in a second on iTunes

You bring tears to my eyes lara, just beautiful

The Color of the summer sky ❤❤❤

I have an instagram now! instagram.com/larawithabird

Fantastic, been waiting for a collection on secret of mana

Can't believe I didn't see this sooner. Absolutely beautiful! And I love the room you're in too!

all my childhood together

I dont know what else to say to this so... thank you

Aah...great jon with the ice palace music. That is a hard one! I would request though you do that one again with the second half of the melody with a bit more slow march rythm and a higher right hand. But your version does surely stand out!

I played the game in the 90's. I have the Sound Track and "Secret of Mana +" CD's. All I have to say is.... Excelent!!! Greetings from Mexico City.

This was and is still one of my favourite games. The soundtrack is amazing like all Squaresoft master pieces were. I still listen to the soundtrack to this day.

Whoah, nice i totally wanna learn how to play these too. Just started learning keyboard at 27, secret of mana is my fav snes game and ost. Australia represent.

I love how A Curious Tale turned out.

That shirt in the beginning of the video is so cool! I would love to buy one of those :)

I can’t believe this video doesn’t have a million views

I didn't even think it was possible to play Into the Thick of it on piano, much less played so perfectly. The whole medley was amazing!

omg this is sooo good! so much nostalgia!

You are the Best 😍
