About the Song
"Eyes on Me" is the ballad that serves as the theme of the game Final Fantasy VIII. It was performed by Chinese singer Faye Wong and composed, like the rest of the game music, by Nobuo Uematsu. The song's lyrics, written in English by Kako Someya, unveil the hopes of a night club singer for romance with a member of her audience. It was released as a CD single in Japan, including an instrumental version and Wong's ballad "Red Bean". The song sold more than 400,000 copies,[16] placing it as the highest-selling video game music disc ever released in that country at the time. "Eyes on Me" was the first song in video game history to win an award at the 14th Annual Japan Gold Disc Awards, where it won "Song of the Year (Western Music)" in 1999.[1] Within the game, the song is written by Julia Heartilly, a pianist who is the love interest of Laguna Loire.[17] It is heard repeatedly throughout the game.    Download this sheet!
