The Yuri on Ice piano arrangement feels like waking up to a crisp snow day, like watching a thunderstorm from the comfort of a coffeeshop, like laughter on the beach and starlit skies. It’s constantly propelling you and it ensnares you in a tidal current, pulling between melancholy and euphoria.
It’s nostalgic for a future you’ve already lived and reminiscent of a past you’ve never seen. It chills you from the inside out, and yet, its touch sears your skin like the softest candlelight, blazing with sandalwood and lavender.
Hungry on a full stomach, thirsty with a quenched throat, reaching, reaching for something you’ve never had and something you know like the back of your hand.
Sad, hopeful, angry, elated, grieving, the music swells in your heart and constricts your soul and as you begin to think you can’t take it anymore, as tears well in your eyes, it finally clicks to what it is.
It’s love.
