If anyone else has reported this I apologise for the double post. I couldn't find it anywhere else.

Okay, so I recently went onto the Final Fantasy XIII website to check out the soundtrack, only I went to the US site to hear a rather interesting announcement.

So as we know since Final Fantasy VIII there have been theme songs with lyrics added to them. We had "Eyes on Me" for VIII, "Melodies of Life" for IX, "Suteki DaNe" for X and "Kiss Me Goodbye" for XII, along with a few others like arrangements of "Theme of Love" for the DS release of IV and "1000 Words" for X-2.

For Final Fantasy XIII, Leona Lewis will be singing "My Hands"


Now whether this should be a Final Fantasy theme song or not it's a beautiful song and I'm a huge fan of Leona Lewis and couldn't believe it when I heard she was singing the theme song for James Cameron's Avatar. Now we've got her singing for Final Fantasy XIII too and I'm quite frankly stunned. I look forward to hearing the only real success ever to come out of the X-Factor or the Idol shows sing the theme to what is shaping up to be the biggest release of the last decade.
