As i’m slowly discovering the FF soundtracks, i’d like to have your opinion on what are the most emotional themes you’ve heard (instrumental / piano) ?
Main theme (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=195QtkOJCYg) It always gives me goose bumps.
FF7 World map theme 1 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hC_KQi7Gp5Q)
Rebel Army’s Theme (FF2) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=siP0syXBde4)
To Zanarkand (FF10) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z0pj-Bhvvzk)
Moonlight Wandering(Crisis Core : FF7) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6OjDgokYgy8)
Keep in mind that from a musical standpoint they might not be the best, after all I’m a bit biased from having played those game and having good memories associated with those songs.
What about you what are your favorites theme ?
Final Fantasy XIV OST ~ Track 51 – YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V6AD5KEbF6E)
The actual title for it is unknown sadly, but it known that it was composed by Nobuo Uematsu (amongst other things it played when the player selected their Path Companion during the main scenario of the game). And given the fact FFXIV has been shutdown, I can’t help but feel sad when I hear this. 🙁
EDIT: it’s called Piece of Mind (sic) and it’s track number 43 on the Before Meteor: FFXIV OST album.
