Done listening?

Its one of the songs I like most in the CLANNAD OST. Does it feel like this song tells a story in itself? Doesn't the song evoke feelings of a journey? A journey that begins in solitude, with only the piano solo in the beginning, rising to a climax when it is joined by the other instruments, like companions joining the journey. Companionship marks the brightest point of this endeavour, but all has to come to an end as it all slowly fades away.

Key really made this song for Fuko's [that's the girl in the video] arc in the game, and I must say its impressive how the people at Kyoani managed to make it all fit together perfectly with the Episode title, 夢の最後まで [Till the Very End of the Dream]. Fuko started alone, then along came friends and everyone else who got her present and made her effort worthwhile, then comes the part where her dream ends and she fades away. Her existence though, was never forgotten.

Sidetrack abit..
