ABOUT THE MUSIC IN THE TWIN SNAKES
________
/ 0003 |
==========================================================================
As you should know, Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes is a remake of the
original Metal Gear Solid (1998, Playstation), and as such, the songs are
very similar. And that's something really good, because the first game had
such a nice soundtrack.
Basically it brings eletronic beats that can tell the tension of the
current status of the game, taking the gamer to feel the urgency, peace,
or whatever feeling it has to. The cutscenes have more orchestrated songs,
more like epic. Overall the sound work in this game is very nice.

==== LYRICS (Original Lyrics in Gaelic) ====
An cuimhin leat an gra
Cra croi an ghra
Nil anois ach ceol na h-oiche
Taim siorai i ngra
Leannain le smal
Leannain le smal
Lig leis agus beidh leat
Lig leis agus beidh gra
Cuimhne leat an t-am
Nuair a bhi tu sasta
An cuimhne leat an t-am
Nuair a bhi tu ag gaire
Ta an saol iontach
ma chreideann tu ann
Tug aghaidh ar an saoi
is sonas siorai inar measc
Ceard a tharla do na
laethanta sin
Ceard a tharla do na
h-oicheanta sin
An cuimhin leat an t-am
Nuair a bhi tu faoi bhron
An cuimhin leat an t-am
Go siorai sileadh na ndeaor
An ormsa na orainne a bhi
an locht
Ag mothu cailite s'ar fan
Cen fath an t-achrann is
sileadh na ndeor
Ta ailleacht sa saol
Ma chuardaionn tu e
Ta gliondar sa saol
Cuardaimis e
==== LYRICS (Translated to English) ====
Do you remember the time when little things made you happy
Do you remember the time when simple things made you smile
Life can be wonderful if you let it be
Life can be simple if you try
What happened to those days?
What happened to those nights?
Do you remember the time when little things made you so sad
Do you remember the time when simple things made you cry
Is it just me, or is it just us
Feeling lost in this world?
Why do we have to hurt each other?
Why do we have to shed tears?
Life can be beautiful if you try
Life can be joyful if we try
Tell me I am not alone
Tell me we are not alone in this world fighting against the wind
Do you remember the time when simple things made you happy
Do you remember the time when simple things made you laugh
You know life can be simple
You know life is simple
Because the best thing in life is yet to come
Because the best is yet to come
