#100 Pokmon Red/Blue/Yellow - Lavender Town
Nominator: Anagram (4/5)
Link:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-sOadAaGiq4" data-time="


I'd like to start this writeup by thanking Anagram for choosing a link without that obnoxious reverb sound that's in most of the RBY uploads, totally kills the songs.
So apparently according to the YouTube description, this is from the original Japanese Red/Green games, although this doesn't sound any different to me from the version I know from my childhood (nostalgia points!). Compositionally, this song does what it set out to do really well. Here we have Lavender Town, a spooky cemetary town, and with it spooky haunted music with really jarring sounds to set the mood. However, those same jarring sounds make this a chore to listen to for a long time, and of all the RBY music, this one in particular seems to be posted online the most, so I've kinda lost my taste for Lavender Town's theme after hearing it a million times. I probably like (specifically) RBY's music more than anyone else on B8, but Lavender Town is not one of the better themes.

And this concludes our bottom 20!
