Final Fantasy XIII ending theme "My Hands" by Leona Lewis.

Hi Everybody!

One of my resolutions for new year was to work on more on my blog so let's start achieving this goal. I will talk about one of my favourite and most well-known videogame sagas, Final Fantasy. Since the 8th instalment Square-Enix began to include vocal songs as ending themes or insert songs. Normally it was a Japanese singer the one who perfomed the same song both in Japanese and in English for the Western version. However this trend has changed in the next instalment, Final Fantasy XIII. For this special occassion, Square-Enix has chosen Leona Lewis to perform the ending theme called "My Hands", from her second album "Echo"
Leona Lewis is a well-known singer and has worked recently in the film "Avatar" singing the ending theme "I see you".

I'd normally rather the japanese versions more than the english ones but in this case I must admit this is a very beautiful song and according to the trailer, it looks to match perfectly the new story. However poor Leona has already some detractors who think this is just a marketing strategy.

Well, judge by yourself. Leona Lewis everybody!

Besides this song is so beautiful that reminds me of someone very special so this song is for Milady (I hope you like it haha)

My Hands.
