Melodies of Life makes for an excellent lullaby, but outside of my sleep playlist I prefer Eyes on Me.

Aren't you gonna vote? Cause I voted for Melodies of Life and you still haven't moved the needle for Eyes on Me in the voting poll.

Well what if I want to go to bed later? Then I have to delete my vote and switch it to Melodies of Life! It's a situational thing, I don't really prefer one over the other.

I'd say Eyes on Me, just. I love both though.

I feel like Eyes on Me is more of the type of song that I would want to listen to than Melodies of Life. Eyes on Me seems like it would be more popular to the general population due to its romantic nature.

I like Eyes on Me better because I find it better utilized by its plot. And I love the space scene. :jess:

eyes on me

It kinda sucked how my PC didn't play the fucking song during the game so I was just staring at a boring space scene. Later on I found out you could hear the song by putting disc 3 into a cd player.

Both are wonderful songs and beat 1000 words from X-2 to a bloody pulp, although that's not a bad song either. Gonna go with the underdog on this.

Melodies of life.
Emiko's voice is so delicate, yet powerful and mesmerizing (better than Faye Wong imo) and the japanese version of the song is just so perfect. The english version is also great but i've always preferred the original Japanese versions. Eyes on Me is not a bad song but I think it all comes down to personal preference.

Melodies of Life. Better vocals, better accent - 'nuff said.

They both are excellent songs...yet if I had to choose one I'd say Eyes on Me.

Choosing between them is hard, but I think Eyes on Me probably has a greater emotional response from me.

^Too bad Eyes on Me is losing though.

Just the songs themselves I'd go with Melodies of Life, but if we were to include the many ingame variations I'd probably go with Eyes on Me
