"real Emotion" is the opening theme of Final Fantasy X-2. Although presented as a performance by Yuna in Luca, in reality, it's sung by Leblanc, posing as Yuna through the First Steps Garment Grid and Songstress dressphere. It was written by Kenn Kato and composed by Kazuhiro Hara.
The Japanese version was sung by Koda Kumi, and the English version was sung by Jade Villalon (Jade Valerie) from the German pop group Sweetbox. Koda also sang a different English version released on her single, Come With Me. The Come With Me single also includes a remix titled "real Emotion" (DJ MSK Remix).
The songs featured in the games are titled "FFX-2 Mix", with full-length versions available on the singers' albums - Grow Into One for Koda and the special edition of Sweetbox's Adagio for Jade.
