It's surprising, the number of songs that I don't know by name, but they are all memorable songs, which makes me remember them, wouldn't have known them but by listening to them, appreciate it.

There's a song, which I'm conscious is probably from a previous ff, because it makes an appearance in FFXIV (possibly 3) which is called Syrcus Tower, i can send it to you if you dont find it, could you put it up for ffxiv?

Also, who would have known, that ff3 would have such amazing music in it. I've really appreciated that you find the originals also. Why is it that ff3 has not so many famous songs, where as the others are known to all (does it have a notable place in the series? like the others?)

Group A
Eyes on Me
Attack(Raid)
Suteki Da Ne
Ravana Theme
Illusionary World (tough)
Under Her Control
Signs of Change
Sailing Ship

Group B
Starlight Celebration
Sky City of Bhujerba
Steel Reason
Those for the Purge
Battle 2 (lol why this match up!)
Tower of Bab-il
Eden Under Seige

Group C
Saber's Edge
Walking the Snowy Mountains
Wailers and Waterwheels
Lake Bresha
Battle
The Federation of Windur ( i guess you get that feeling all the time, when you have two songs that equally share a place in your heart. why oh why these two songs! i can unfortunately not play this game anymore, so I'm going to lament not being able to run around and do things anymore, but it has to trump it simply cause I remember ffxi when i played this)
Besaid Island

Group D
Auron's Theme (tough)
Succesion of Witches
Ru'Lude Gardens
Ahead on Our way
Dreams Aloft (I had no idea ffxiv had such beautiful music)
The promise (tough, i was so ready to vote for the other, but this is iconic for this game)
Maybe I'm a Lion (to be honest a tough one, even though i've never heard the other one before)

Group E
Harvest (tough)
Four Warriors of Dawn
The Gestahl Empire (tough)
Longfall
Seeking Power
Eternal Wind
Kingdom Baron

Group F
Castle Pandemonium
Main Theme
Balamb Garden
Steiner's Theme (gets my vote simply for how dinky it is, i had no idea playing it!)
Aetherial Slumber
Hanging Edge
The Invicible (i'm really believing this song)

Let me know if this is not the correct track. The lowest track to avoid qualifiers was Kuja's Theme, so it will be facing that:

Kuja's Theme (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2spjqRmQGRA) (FF9) vs Syrcus Tower (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nAQrvxE5wo4) (FF14)

Also, here is the original from FF3 if you would rather we include that version (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OGnKz__9MOE). I'm fine with either but I'd rather avoid entering both.

Oh, Dark Messenger will definitely be making in appearance in 2016, if that's what you mean. In addition to the 44 match-ups in this thread, 84 other tracks are guaranteed an appearance in 2016 based upon past performance.

That's what i was hoping. I thought that it being on this list meant that it was either in or out. I think they did a real good job building you up to this moment in the game. it is one of the most memorable songs of my experience of Final Fantasy.

Ah, I think I see the confusion now. Kuja's Theme and Dark Messenger are two different songs. Dark Messenger is guaranteed entry next year. Kuja's Theme has to beat Syrcus Tower.

Whoops! Head in the sand, i'm getting it mixed up with this years rumble. haha!

This is an interesting match up. I'm going for Syrcus Tower in this one. though it's not only because of the sentiment only. They've done some interesting refrains in this version which tie in to the vibe of the dungeon. Like the epic size of the tower and its general look and feel.

Syrcus Tower.
