Maybe Tomorrow itself is a little hammy in the way a couple other pieces on this list have been (albeit less so). Its still quite pretty. Im a little less sold on the ending medley that follows mostly because the intense piece that kicks it off doesnt fit in with the rest. When it switches into Hepatica, that part fits fine, and I guess so does the bit after. Then the piece comes full circle, so that one switch feels kinda jarring. As long as I dont mind a soft, sweet piece, theres really nothing else to downplay about MT~EM.

I keep trying to edit in a blank line here and it's not working!

55. Xenosaga II: Jenseits Von Gut Und Boese Sweet Song

I forgot just how cheesy this track was. Have I never noticed that this is a common trend in ending themes, or did we just get a bunch of people picking those out? Sweet Song is certainly effusive, so sweet its saccharine. I still like it, just with reservations. If Im going to take a Xenosaga track, I prefer Hepatica (Kos-Mos).

Im going to line up Sweet Song at the end of this set because I like it the most (duh) and because I think that it does the best job of being an ending. It isnt merely sappy. It actually has a dramatic flair to it that I am the Wind and Melodies of Life cant match.

next: sorry, all out of cheese. I'll need to borrow some.
