Gacktastic Vid of the day- Hoshi no Suna

I fail, FAIL! I never heard this song before, or...rather this version. It sounds vaguely familiar... So I'm gonna spread it around in hopes to shed more light on it!

Emm... I can't find any difference if compared with CRESCENT version +_+ I've missed something?

Actually, the production effects on this version are quite a bit different. The vocals are more dry, and the piano is a lot more prominent in this version.

It's not any different in arrangement, but it is different.

Hmm, I noticed some differences, but I thought it's due to low quality of sound on Youtube. It often arrived to me to listen to the same track there, and then on official CD and I had totally different impression. But maybe it's really an other version... then I'm totally lost, cause I can't remember him playing it live anywhere +_+

My only thought is that maybe someone ran it through a program like Audacity and played with the effects. Because you are right, I don't recall a live version, and the only other versions Gackt has released are the b-side to Tsuki no Uta (which I am assuming is the same as the Crescent version) and the Seventh Night version, which is an entirely different arrangement.

AH! Yeah, this version sounds more...light? The Crescent one sounds more orchestral.
