The song is ok, but I don't listen to it much like I used to.

I hope not personally. Gackt sounds horrible when he sings in english. His accent muffles the words. Listen to "To Feel The Fire" and you'll see what I mean. Oddly enough though his speaking accent in english is quite good.

Then again "To Feel The Fire" was'nt meant for worldwide marketing even though it was written by Stevie Wonder.
So he might sound better if he's directed to produce a song for western ears.
If Utada Hikaru can do it I'm sure Gackt can.

I suppose it's too much to hope he'd let someone else sing the english version then

Oh well...
It's still a decent song.

I love Gackt and Squall but I can't STAND the thought of them ever being compaired! Squall looks white and Rinoa is asian, look at their freakin noses and facial features. Come on! And that darn site http://www.mahamari.com/story/look.shtml just talks about it and "everyone" assumes that it's "TRUE"! GAH!!! .....sorry I just get very peeved whenever this topic come along.... However I do believe Squall was based off of River Phoenix and I made my own comaparison. http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b2...llandriver.jpg
And Gackt and Squall.

Until someone gives me the official crap I'll believe what other people do, but for now it isn't the truth to me...

Who said Gackt has to do it? They didn't have Koda Kumi do the English versions of "Real Emotion" and "1000 Words" in FFX-2.

That's very true. I didnt say he had to do it. I just can't imagine anyone else doing it as its his song anyway.
