It’d be interesting if, since KH4 may be the beginning of a new trilogy, we use the re-recorded Hikari/Simple and Clean as the intro instead of a brand new song. I’m down for either tho

I mean, I absolutely can't stand the KHIII intro personally (I really tried but I find it so grating to the ears and out of character, sorry) so I hope this one fairs better...

How did Sanctuary not make this ?
