Final Fantasy 8 'Eyes on Me (Obsession)'

Can't honestly say I like this mix. I don't like industrial. And I'm not fond of music that has plain speaking (ie: not singing) throughout. Not my cup of tea, but if you're into industrial and/or distortion then it could be a suggestion.

Of all of Children of the Monkey Machine's work, I think I'd have to say that this is my favorite. The reason being the lead instrument during the non voice parts, and the voice parts themselves. The echo is just perfect, not so extreme that you can't understand, and just extreme enough to give the song its feeling. An, impressive way of capturing the atmosphere and emotion.

I listened to it once and loved it as a concept piece. But I doubt I'd listen to it again. Neat song, but it's way too out there for me to be able to enjoy over and over.

Why hasn't this song been reviewed more times?

It's a beautiful piece, haunting, unable to leave you alone. The whole theme of the song (love from a distance) has been twisted around into some obsession/stalking theme, that disturbs me to no end. It has a sort of nightmarish quality to it that made the song addictive.
When I first heard it I couldnt stop listening to it for days.

The vocals are brilliant... so solemn, yet so intense... and the end quote: "Oh god, you're still smiling" had me brooding for days.

I love this intense piece of work. One of the best out here!

The melody at the beginning (reminded me of a bubble) was alright but occasionaly it sounded a little too....loud and shrieky.
Nevertheless the vocals are very good and I like the idea of having them as a monologue instead of sung (plus Dani sounds more or less how I imagined Julia)

i thought it was a 6 on a 1-10 scale, that is untill it reached the singing, then it got kinda wierd, if it didn't repeat the words, then it would be much better

later :D

I've only reviewed only one other song (djp's "Lord Protektor" from Actraiser) and I felt that this song really grabbed my attention. . .

The first time I heard the vocals sent chills down my spine and I really had to make sure "she" was saying the right words to the song. . .Absolutely spine-tingling, freaky, and soooo sad. . .and most importantly, verrrry well-done. . .I like this a LOT!!!

Hmmm. . .maybe someone can do a Castlevania mix and with an Alucard monologue, aye?

I had to listen to this several times to truly appreciate it...

...one of the most haunting pieces I've heard, with a very omnious ending.

Definately fits CoTMM and is very good stuff if you like his other pieces

This song is beyond good, when i started to listen to it, it only took 2 turns and i was hooked, and i still am, this is an amazing song and sounds spooky, but the words are perfect like the song, the ending is awesome, and this is a good song all through out, 10/10...

I love this song. i throw it in the catagorie with that recent Wizards & Warriors theme as weird songs that i can listen to when i want inspiration. i love the whole turn with making Eyes on Me sound evil, one. and the lyrics.....the first time i heard it a shiver ran down me' spine...ummm



9/10
