Great battle, the Fratley theme from IX wins by a few votes. Next up, from Most Relaxing:
Roses and Wine - Final Fantasy VIII (Laguna: "Oh yeah, so I want to quit the army and become a journalist!" "So I can tell people 'bout all the things I've seen on my travels." Squall: (He's already loosened up...))
vs.
Eiko's Theme - Final Fantasy IX (Eiko: "Did I make the right decisions? ... Grandpa... I don't wanna be alone anymore. Help me do this right...")

This track set the mood perfectly when Laguna was sharing his dreams and aspirations with Julia, and it's a wonder how Squall was able to awaken from such a relaxing tune (not really).

Even though I hear it a lot at the beginning of the game during the staged fight against Blank (mostly for a completionist reason), I never grew tired of it.
Love grows is a nice piece as well, but it lacks a little something to me. Some subtleties in its composition that Vama 'alla Flamenco just happens to have over it.

Hey, it's no biggie. Really. We all miss things sometimes. Glad you were able to get your vote in before the battle ended. Well, here we go then:
Love Grows - 10
Vamo 'alla Flamenco - 10
What a battle! Well, here we are then. At first, Vamo 'alla Flamenco looked like the clear winner. But then a surge of late votes put Love Grows back in contention and now here we are at a tie vote! Well, when we're in the second round, we go back to the results from the first round to determine our tiebreaker. So let's take a look and figure this out...
Vamo 'alla Flamenco - 9/16 - 56.25%
Love Grows - 10/19 - 52.63%
I don't believe it! That has to be the closest tiebreaker ever. Vamo 'alla Flamenco (which some think is an unsuitable category, but I'm not the one who made that nomination) goes on to the quarter-finals! Love Grows just misses a great comeback.
All right, here we are with the next battle:
Zidane's Theme - Final Fantasy IX (Zidane: "Come on, it's not like I did it on purpose." Dagger: "Please, enough." Zidane: "There's that royal tone in your voice again. ...Are you okay, Vivi?")
vs.
We Are Thieves! - Final Fantasy IX (Steiner: "!!!? Oh, it's only you. Why are you all gathered here? Are you scheming another abduction or something?" Blank: "Hey, watch your mouth." Cinna: "We were just discussing ways to restore this district." Zenero: "Yeah." Marcus: "Old timer, you've got us all wrong.")
It's FFIX vs. FFIX this time. But which tune wins out? We're at a holiday-time, so I realize voting might just drop off. So this may go an extra day. Tell ya' what, if at least 12 votes are in by the normal ending time, then I go ahead with the next battle. If not, then I wait until the next evening.

Another great battle! "Lion" squeaks it by just one vote.

Loss of Me / Rose of May - Final Fantasy IX (Beatrix: "...There's no difference between them and me. We're all just blindly following orders. My heart and my will mean nothing... Maybe Steiner was right...")

And here's, from my personal point of view, two of the most overrated tracks in their respective OSTs...
While "Zanarkand" is the more popular of the two choices, "Roses of May" is the one I predict will win this entire thing, and I'm under the supposition of Beatrix's (admittedly) awesome character being the driving force that'll ultimately propel it to that status.
Zanarkand, consequently.

LOL at rabid FFVII fan who can't read and has no idea what he's posting about.
Okay! Next battle:
Cid's Theme - Final Fantasy VII
vs.
Eiko's Theme - Final Fantasy IX
In case anyone hasn't figured it out, FFIX is going to be in every battle this round to the glut of tunes that were voted to this round from that game. In fact, there's gonna have to be an FFIX vs. FFIX battle at some point. So far, FFIX is one down in this round, let's see whether or not it becomes a trend.
Anyway, cast your votes!

Trendsetters for Cid's Theme!
An excess of FFIX tracks are contending against each other so late in the competition because it's the the most beloved Final Fantasy for the majority of FFS, from what I've gathered, and sad to say, I'm starting to get the impression that favoritism for the game as a whole is eclipsing judgement of the track itself on its own merit. This is not only limited to FFIX either, for certain members.
To some of you, perhaps I'm being precarious, though I've pored over the first General Final Fantasy Rumble thread in the Archives section months prior, and even back then, it's the same story, with an overabundance of Final Fantasy IX-related choices reaching the quarterfinals, regardless of the pertinence of a particular rumble at the time.
It's not a complaint, as it's merely observance of the inclination I'm addressing.
I'd also like to add that I'm still confounded over the fact that Unforgettable Silhouette defeated Terra's Theme, and was surprised it came as close as it did when vying against Liberi Fatali.
Predictability came into play, once again, with the overwhelming FFIX support, yet, concerning a number of outcomes, it's been one of the more "whoa-inducing" rumbles I've taken part in.
EDIT: I'm well aware, Hynad. Too aware.
Haha.

Splintered, quit complaining about the obvious. :P
Nah. I actually agree with this post of yours. But, I don't really care.
Some people have no knowledge and will ony vote for the game they enjoyed the most. That's plain lame, but at the same time, there's not really anything to gain from these rumbles. ;)

And that last vote comes in just under the wire. Let's see the results on this one:
Cid's Theme - 9
Eiko's Theme - 8
Well, that last vote seals it conclusively. After FFIX did so well last round, another FFIX tune goes down. Cid's Theme is on to the semi-finals.
All right, next up... another FFIX tune goes down, but one goes through. Because it's time for this round's FFIX vs. FFIX tune battle. And here it is...
We Are Thieves! - Final Fantasy IX (Baku: "...... Hey, Cinna... What are you doing over there?" Cinna: "This springwater might make some good coffee! I'll get the fixin's!" Baku: "Do I gotta remind you what happens to members who don't listen to their boss?" Cinna: "N-NO! Please, not that! I'll bring everyone over right now!")
vs.
Vamo 'alla Flamenco - Final Fantasy IX (Mene: "Wow, that's amazing that you found so many, kupo! But you need to stop! I'll go out of business if you keep going, kupo! I'll give you a special bonus if you just quit now!")

All right, enough of this battle. Looks like the results are clear:
We Are Thieves! - 2
Vamo 'alla Flamenco - 17
And now, the final battle of the Quarter-Finals:
Maybe I'm a Lion - Final Fantasy VIII (Squall: "It's not a monster. It's a lion. Lions are known for their great strength and pride." Rinoa: "Hmm...great strength...pride......Kinda like you, Squall." Squall: "I wish..." Rinoa: "Hmm...so this L I O N of yours. Does it have a name?" Squall: "Of course." Rinoa: "So that's what you call it. You know Zell said he'll make me one exactly like it. Who knows, maybe I can become like a lion, too. That'd be crazy, huh!? I mean, everyone might, y'know, get the wrong idea about us." Squall: (If it's so crazy, why do you sound so delighted? Everyone is trying to get us together. It's so obvious even I can tell.) "You sound like you want everyone to get the wrong idea.")
vs.
Loss of Me / Rose of May - Final Fantasy IX (Beatrix: "I won't allow that." Brahne: "Oh? Are you defying me as well?" Beatrix: "Your Majesty, it is my duty to protect the princess. I beg you, reconsider. Please do not harm the princess anymore. All of you, leave here at once!")

All right, it looks like this battle went about the same way as the last one. Let's get those results:
Maybe I'm a Lion - 4
Loss of Me / Rose of May - 14
"Maybe I'm a Lion" only manages to scrape up four votes to salvage FFIX's hopes going into the semi-finals with Loss of Me / Rose of May.
So here's what's left then:
Cid's Theme - Final Fantasy VII
Liberi Fatali - Final Fantasy VIII
Vamo 'alla Flamenco - Final Fantasy IX
Loss of Me / Rose of May - Final Fantasy IX
First up:
Cid's Theme - Final Fantasy VII (Reeve: "Cloud, everybody! Sorry...... But!!" Cait Sith: "But! But you'll come, won't you!?" Cloud: "I know!" Cid: "Hey! I'm leaving the ship in your hands!" Learner Pilot: "I'm heading for Midgar!")
vs.
Vamo 'alla Flamenco - Final Fantasy IX (Zidane: "Out of the way, Blank!" Blank: "Consider this, Zidane! If Prince Schnieder were to marry Princess Cornelia, peace would reign over both their kingdoms!" Zidane: "'Tis foolishness! If all were so easy, why, none would suffer in this world! Aha!" Blank: "Mph!" Zidane: "Aha! Aha!")

I really like Vamo 'alla Flamenco, but I kind of think it's repetitive, and it loses its luster after a while, whereas that's hardly the case for Cid's Theme.

Yep, it was close all right! Cid's Theme takes it by just one vote, that last vote there wasn't enough to tip the scales.
And now, the second semi-final battle:
Liberi Fatali - Final Fantasy VIII (Quistis: "I knew it'd be either you or Seifer! Come on, let's go. Today's the field exam.")
vs.
Loss of Me / Rose of May - Final Fantasy IX (Zidane: "Boss! Have you found Dagger?" Baku: "Nah... Can't find her anywhere! I didn't find Dagger, but... I think I saw that chick..." Zidane: "That chick?" Baku: "Yeah, you know, that chick! I'm gonna check again." Zidane: "Hey, wait! Who is she? What are you talking about!?")

Everyone must be associating the song with the hype over how awesome the graphics in FFVIII were when it first came out. FAIL.
What nutcases. I feel like that game editor who was described as loathing final fantasy VIII, to the point of unemployment and complaining about it with druggies and prostitutes on the street until being rehired for critique knowledge, in a recent issue of some gaming magazine...it's front cover was all about some cave-babe beast-riding game.
