The idea is to make a large list of songs from games. Try to include the singer as well.
Don’t list choral pieces, unless they have words in them.
Why – Ayaka
Eyes On Me – Faye Wong
Melodies of Life – Emiko Shiratori
Suteki da Ne – Rikki
Real Emotion – Jade Villalon (eng), Kumi Koda (jap).
1000 Words – Jade Villalon (eng), Kumi Koda (jap).
Kiss Me Goodbye – Angela Aki
Eternal Love – Sayuri Sugawara
Still Alive – Lisa Miskovsky (mirrors edge)
aka opening…
"Depend on You" Ayumi Hamasaki – Thousand Arms (PSX)
aka in-game…
"Psycho Soldier" Kaori Shimizu – Psycho Soldier (Arcade, never seen this game on the Famicom though)
– (btw, this is the first game that introduced vocals) If you want to listen to the song, I know it’s located on one of the Legend of Game Music posted by one of the users here
You can see how old this game is by looking at this soundtrack. (http://vgmdb.net/album/6182)
