The second this song started playing, I was like--OOO! Pretty piano! But then when the chorus died out and all of a sudden there was silence and melancholy piano...I just started to cry. This song is pure sadness...I'm terrified what it means.

"After the battle"? That's what scares me the most. This song is not going to accompany anything happy. That's plain to see...and hear!

I can't listen to this song without having tears in my eyes. I'm not sure I want to know what's going to prompt this song to start playing--it has to be something heartbreakingly sad!

But...it's absolutely BEAUTIFUL. Congratulations to Utada for making a song that gives me chills just listening to it.

Well, when you think about it, KH's ending was also sad, though it was optimistic, as well as the song that was with it. BHK and/or Sora could die, but I don't think that might happen. The song is phenomenal, so sad, but still, optimism hides in the strangest of places, right? There still might be light at the end of the tunnel...
Taking into account everything I've seen and heard about KH2, I have an excellent feeling about it. The score 9.8 or 9.9 on Gamespot comes to my mind, but more importantly, HOURS UPON HOURS OF NEVER BETTER GAMEPLAY!!!!!!

I'm rather optimistic that after the sad part phases out, all of a sudden the electric guitar comes in and the energetic, slightly-happier theme of Passion starts. It's like...I don't know, something really sad happens and then all of a sudden the door to the light opens or something big and climactic like that, resulting in the more upbeat music.

Just a theory. Brilliant song, like I said before--you know it has to be good when it makes you wonder this much.

Thats so sad....
I can picture the ending to Kingdom Hearts right now too.....
Imagine how sad the English one will be since we'll understand it.

:(

(PS- If you listen to this one backwards you can really tell it's "I need more Affection than you know.")

Sorry about the double post-

But does anyone think that Utada got to see the ending to Kingdom Hearts 2 before any one?(Besides the ones who made the game) I mean so she could make sure the music fit in perfectly? I think she did

Very small chance that she could've, Nomura probably just told her how the ending was like.
Nomura: "We want a song that fits the ending. The ending itself is gonna be sad and depressing. We want something that fits that description. You have 1 month."
Utada: "That's a bit vague, I could use some more details you know. And probably some more time......."
Nomura: "No you don't! You're Utada Hikaru, you can do anything!"

I feel the same. I also wanna hear how the 'opening version' sounds. Maybe it was the 'opening version' that was played during that new 1 minute trailer clip. Cause I heard some lyrics that weren't the ATB version or the single version.

Mm, I've heard people say it's a remix. There was too much background noise to really tell, though. I thought they said the single version was going to be the opening?

Not too sure on that... Some info on the version of Passion playing in the KH2 trailer:

From what I can hear it's Japanese. "Itoshii hito, BANG BANG VANG BANG"
Uh..the "BANG" parts are probably the background noise.

Might be like an acoustic version, like how she did an acoustic version for Be My Last, which was also an Internet Live.

EDIT: Even more Passion info (KH2 related):
Cow from U-O.net said:
According to Toshiba Emi the Passion ~Opening Version~ is exclusive to Kingdom Hearts 2. As well as the Orchestral version.
