gaming Final Fantasy Music

[Tom Snyder 4,112]

I remember Most of the music in the FF games, which were quite enjoyable. But my favorite is this one:

 

What are your favorite songs from the FF series?

The classic, To Zanarkand. I like it soo much I learned it for my piano recital in college.

That got me crying you wouldn't believe. Knowing Yuna will get the final aeon and die after she summons it.

[Gatekeeper Giggle 2,902]

I think this one is my favorite:

Here's another that's just sad to listen to.

 

Watching aerith's death was the hardest thing, the feels man.

Maybe I'm a Lion - Final Fantasy VIII

 

[Pastel 7,630]

My favorite might be this one:

[The Mint Pone 2,294]

Since my favourite 'To Zanarkand' has already been posted I'll post what may be my second favourite!

The extreme from final fantasy 8: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=RVkcmx2l3WA

Hard to chose though because final Fantasy has many good songs. kinda wanna say one of the chocobo themes is the best XD

[Ziltoid the Omniscient 286]

Another favorite of mine is the opera scene (Draco and Maria) from Final Fantasy VI.

 

[Silver Letter 1,832]

Final Fantasy XII has perhaps the best album overall, at least my personal favorite.

 

[~StatesTheOblivious~ 1,795]

There can be only one.

 

 

... Do I have to say more than posting this video?

Is it strange that I've never played FF but enjoy listening to their music? xD

 

I've always adored any orchestrated piece from Uematsu, I really liked this re-do of Fisherman's Horizon, which I think is amzaing! It kinda has that holiday feel to it, reminds me of Christmas actually

What's this? A load of Zozo posts? Good, good. 

I'll post nothing then.

 

 

In all seriousness, Behemoth's theme from IV terrified me. By the end of The Lair of the ForeFathers I dreaded this song.

 

[Tom Snyder 4,112]

I think it sounds cool.  really puts the sign of danger in there.

 

And now for everyone's favorite villain!:

 

I'd place kefka in second place.

Never heard of that one before. 

[Scooblee 121]

I could list just about any track from VI (III) here, really. I never really listened much past 6 (a little of 7, but not that much,) but I feel okay with that. Maybe it's just the things I've heard about the later games that just sorta removes my interest from them.

 

 

Ahh, a classic. (Then again, isn't most of 6's soundtrack considered classic material?) I've got to say, even with the amount of SNES music I've listened to (I'm a chip guy, that's quite a lot), Uematsu seems to get the most realistic sound out of it, with Mitsuda and maybe David Wise or Dean Evans coming not too far behind. (I hear the composer of Dragon Quest is really good, too, but I haven't checked those games out just yet.)

Here's another that's just sad to listen to.

It ain't nothin compared to Fiora's

[Tom Snyder 4,112]

Prove it.  :comeatus:

 

I would love to hear the music if you can find it.

[A Black Circle 1,586]

 

the music.

Here.

I like it a lot better than Aerith's theme.

Okay, i admit its good, but i still prefer the sad tone of aerith's.

[DaReaper 1,944]

I personaly love "Fallen Angel" in FFXIV, was the sing from Garuda's fight. The only two words spoken says it all for the fight "Now Fall"

[Discordian 6,015]

As someone who considers most of FF's music to be horribly bland and forgettable there's still a few songs I love. A few that everyone else likes (though when everyone worships Uematsu and everything he does that's not saying much) and a few that everyone hates.

 

Some winners:

 

You're Not Alone

World's Collide

Longing

Unite, Descend

Monster's Round Dance ~Rondo~

Otherworld

Saber's Edge

 

You'll notice that most of the big faves people usually mention aren't on here, there's barely any Uematsu music at all. I think people who like Uematsu only because they haven't experienced actual good composers.

 

Motoi Sakuraba is best.

Can't have a FF music thread without Man With A Machine Gun and Trisection

Laguna is one of my favorite characters in the FF series. He could have had his own game with the material they gave him but alas...
