The ability of the orchestra is unquestionable, as is the quality of Uematsu's compositions. The other renditions include a nine-minute orchestra-led version that retains the motivational vibe of the original. However, the meaningful lyrics and fine musicianship of the backing band create a song that appeals to all. The first is the original version, sung by Faye Wong, backed by the usual soft guitars, drums, and a tight melody. "Eyes on Me," the most commercially successful Final Fantasy song ever, is featured on Final Fantasy, Vol. The choir that introduces the first track, "Fithos Lusec Wecos Vinosec," set the mood of the entire album perfectly the dark feeling that encapsulates this release is achieved with aplomb throughout. In all, a varied but fitting mix is featured. Three versions of the hit single "Eyes on Me," sung by the talented Faye Wong, are present, as well as two renditions of "Fithos Lusec Wecos Vinosec," the inspiring intro song from the hugely successful Final Fantasy VIII.
