Not with Aeris and Galuf. It was much sader when Galuf dies because he had family to witness it. Remember Cara's reaction......*sniff* .Aeris had no family left. Not to mention Sephiroths speech straight after then the Jenova fight changing the mood completely. Plus it was a bigger shock when Galuf died than when Aeris did. Only one word for it.

I thought (SPOILER)Holy had the opposite effect and helped meteor destroy midgar, and the lifestream saved the planet.
Actually, I thought Sephiroth's speech after Aeris death made it much sadder, it showed his callousness
(SPOILER)Aeris began the prayer at the Water Altar while she was still alive, and it was this action (simply praying for Holy) that initiated the Magic. In all likelihood, Aeris did not even need to die for the Magic to take effect. Remember that Cloud suggests to the others at the end of Disc 2 that Aeris has not yet returned to the Planet, even though we already saw during the Key of the Ancients sequence that the White Materia had begun to glow (indicating its activation).
That's a common misconception as to the effects of Holy. In actuality, however, (SPOILER)the Lifestream merely strengthened Holy, which by itself was insufficient in stopping Meteor. This should be obvious for several reasons. First, Sephiroth (as discussed by Bugenhagen and Cloud in the Key of the Ancients sequence) is explicitly stated to be blocking Holy. If the Magic was meant to strengthen the effects of or otherwise aid Meteor, he would never have done so. Furthermore, the White Materia is explicitly stated to do what's good for the Planet. While destroying Midgar would probably helped Gaia and its Lifestream, allowing the catastrophic impact of Meteor would have threatened the entire Planet. This is clearly outside the boundaries of the Holy magic.
During the final FMV sequences, as the party looks on, Red XIII suggests that Holy is "too late." This can be taken to mean either that Holy, in being delayed, had lost some of its potency, or that the Magic was taking place to close the the surface (Holy, perhaps, should have encountered Meteor in the upper atmosphere). Whatever the case may be, the Lifestream itself strengthened Holy in its intended function (stopping Meteor), and Gaia survived.
my point still remains.aeris is [img]/xxx.gif[/img][img]/xxx.gif[/img][img]/xxx.gif[/img][img]/xxx.gif[/img] compared to galuf and any other FF character ever.

Hey, come up with actual proof like masamune1600 did, and we might be more incline to believe you...
Also, she might be also the one that get the Lifestream to help combat the Meteor since her face showed up in the ending and from the background I guess she is inside the lifestream.

I kinda chuckled when either Reina or Faris (I don't rightly remember which) were using spells and items to revive him, even though I was a little sad. Galuf was the man, for sure.
Whe Galuf died, that's when Bartz *officially* became a pimp.
Fin.
Galuf's death was not in vain!
