I just added it to ‘post to lemmy later in the near future’ folder, hahahaha
Another random but interesting? info:
This cover of the Ben E. King classic serves as the main theme of the RPG video game Final Fantasy XV.
In the announcement trailer, Florence described “Stand By Me” as “one of the greatest songs of all time”; explaining that it was impossible to ‘improve’ upon, so “you just have to do your own!”.
From the plot of FFXV, the song can be interpreted from the perspective of the protagonist and only playable character, Noctis Lucis Caelum. “Stand By Me” is Noctis’s way of expressing the feelings of gratitude in his heart that he can’t say straight out. source
The classic Final Fantasy prelude is integrated in the song’s intro and first verse.
Wow!
Thanks for sharing about the cover!

Oh cool, I didn’t know they used it in final fantasy! That’s a fun fact.
