Prelude. The very first incarnation of the Crystal Prelude! Airship Theme. Every game has one. Overworld. Self-explanatory. Town Theme. Yeah, yeah... Menu Theme. I heard this one a little too much, back in the day... Sailing Ship. I think I heard this one too much too. Darn that trip to Crescent Lake! Earth Cave. Ah, memories. The hall of giants. Infuriatingly difficult Earth elementals. Bats that got in my way. Ack. Matouya's Cave. I wish I knew who did this, this is a really good midi. Chaos' Temple. Even back then, Uematsu was creating works of art...
Prelude. Say what you will about this game, but I never realized just how cool 16-bit was until I turned on FFIV for the first time and heard this music. Red Wings. This is the only game music besides One-Winged Angel that actually shocked me... as stated above, 16-bit music was new to me. I was incredibly impressed. ^_^ Kingdom Baron. Darned good midi, too. Theme of Love, more commonly known as Rosa's theme. I think this was the first video game music I really fell in love with. Prologue. Known also as the Bridge-Crossing theme... This is for Daniel. Miss ya, man. Welcome To Our Town. Typical town theme... Main Theme. They never have creative names for their overworld music, but this is my favorite of the overworld themes... Battle Theme. Also not a creative name. Oh well. Ever notice how all the games' battle themes are really similar? Fanfare. Victory! The Big Chocobo! Always cracks me up... Chocobo Forest. I can't find this track listed on the OSV soundtrack listings I've looked at... Choco-Chocobo! Yellow Chocobo theme. Into the Darkness. The dungeon theme. Boss Battle Theme. I love the bass in this... Rydia. Heh, I always liked her a lot... my second favorite FFIV character. Castle Damcyan. Edward's place. Cry in Sorrow. Every RPG's gotta have a "sad theme"... Melody of Lute. Ah, Edward... a great character from a story perspective, but a lousy fighter. Still, he had good music... Mt. Ordeals. Fabul. Suspicion. Another sad theme. Golbez, Clad in the Dark. Hey, Cid! Darned funny. Mystic Mysidia. This has gotta be in my top 3 video game musics of all time. Long Way to Go. I always think of it as the Mysidian elder's music, myself. Palom and Porom. Another wacky one. The Dreadful Battle. Music when you fight the fiends. The Airship. Back to the not-so-creative naming scheme... Toroian Beauty. Nice, soft, and peaceful. Tower of Bab-il. Somewhere In The World... Golbez schemes. Land of Dwarves. The underworld theme. Dancing Calbrena. Man, that scene gave me the creeps... Tower of Zot. Illusionary World. This music was used more than once, but always makes me think of the Sylvan Cave. The Big Whale. Another Moon. Lunar overworld. The Lunarians. Lunar dungeons, also I sort of think of it as Cecil's theme, since it played at the peak of Mt. Ordeals... The Final Battle. They're just not even trying... ^_^ Epilogue. This is really long, but really good too. Although I once had a midi of just the second half of this which was even better, but it got lost when my parents' HD crashed. :(
Ahead On Our Way. Someone sent me this midi a really long time ago and I didn't even know what it was from but I loved it. ^_^ Town Theme I don't like most town themes, but this one I do... maybe cause I haven't heard it as much as the others? Battle Theme. I'm addicted to these catchy little things... Sealed Away. Haven't gotten too far in the game yet, but this played in the Wind Shrine, and I liked it so much I went out and hunted down the midi. The Dragon Spreads Its Wings. Of course, in the rom I have, they didn't translate some things, so I've been calling the dragon "hiryuu".
Awakening. Personally, I think this is more Terra's theme than Terra's Theme is. :P Locke. Weirdly enough, I never thought this music really summed him up... Edgar and Sabin. That castle has got to be one of the coolest I've ever seen... Kefka's Theme. This is probably my favorite video game music of all time. The Returners. 'Nuff said... Shadow. This really grew on me. Cyan's Theme. Cyan is one of my favorite characters, and his music just fits him perfectly. The Phantom Forest. One of my favorite scenes, since Cyan is one of my favorite characters... Phantom Train. Rounding off the "one of my favorites" stretch, this is one of my favorite video game music pieces of all time... so why can't I find a perfect midi of it?! Terra's Theme. Somehow I can never find a midi that has quite the same feel as the original, but this one's pretty close. Coin Song. Music from Edgar and Sabin's flashback. Forever Rachel. Ah, poor Locke... Slam Shuffle. Played in Zozo. Aria de Mezzo Caraterre. (Yes, I know all the words too.) Opera Panic. Anyone know if this is the real title of this song? I don't have the actual soundtrack... yet. Grand Finale? Music from when you fight Ultros in the Opera House. Johnny C. Bad. From the coliseum. Devil's Lab. The music from the Magitek factory. ?? Played in all the... oddly amusing scenes. Mog's Theme. Mog just plain rocks, and that's all I have to say. ^_^ Stragos. And here I was thinking it was just a town theme... Relm's Theme. Okay, so everyone but me hates her. I don't care. The Fierce Battle. The Atma Weapon's battle music, in my opinion, was the best in the game. (Yes, I liked it better than even Dancing Mad.) Epitaph. Theme for Setzer's poor girlfriend, Daryl. Ending - Character Medley. Listening to this late at night was what inspired me to write Animals...
Don't be Afraid. This is the battle theme... love it! ODEKA ke Chocobo. O_o;; I can't wait to see why on earth this exists. Heehee... and yes, it's capitalized that way on the OST. Eyes On Me. Faye Wong's FF8 love song. I got this midi from Fayecination.
Battle Theme. Okay, so it's not an Uematsu battle theme... I still like it. Fireburg. This midi is why I even started a Mystic Quest midi section. ^_^ Aquaria. Brings back memories... Focus Tower. The more I think about it, the more I think Mystic Quest was incredibly underrated.
