The original feels like a celebration of technology, like a World's Fair exhibition or something. An upbeat, optimistic look at how far humanity has come and where it's going. The Evo version trades that ambiance for some jazz interludes and I do often complain ranking topics do not have enough jazz in them (you may point out that I don't actually listen to jazz [with the exception of Carol King's Jazzman], but why bother?). I like both of them for very different reasons, but when it comes time to assign a score value, I find myself giving fairly low scores for how much praise I'm giving. Ultimately, I guess the Original Version is just a bit too long & repetitive, wearing out its welcome towards the end and I would have liked the Evo Version to go even harder on the jazziness instead of just being an interlude. #61: Trails in the Sky - Trails in the Sky tgs: 8.2/6.8 Mycro: 7.14/5.75 Total: 7.67/6.275 (6.9725) https://youtube.com/watch?v=oWIo2G6M-Oo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=70OJFUck2nc The vocalist in this evo track just sound disinterested in doing this, but this track is still alright despite that. ------------------------------------------------------------- what the fuck how do you fuck up this badly and remove all the element of the original i like; i don't mind the Anime Vocal Credits Music direction, but there's strangely so much less actual content despite it being so much longer? the vocals are nice. EITHER WAY it is a "nostalgaic journey through the main themes of the game" which only impacts me knowing so much of FC/SCs music now, but it's welcomed! interconnectivity of songs to each other in a game soundtrack is a big reason i like listening to soundtracks over non-soundtracks. but man that INTRO TO THE ORIGINAL VERSION; why couldn't that have been kept in the evo version? why couldn't there be cool fake orchestra and fancy emotive flute moments? Why couldn't "joe hisaishi in 1991" have remained in combination with the vocal version. I really think i would not be a fan of the vocal evo version at all if i didn't know the source material of all the themes intertwined, but the stuff the original has that the evo doesn't is so cool that I don't need that context to appreciate it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e606hqPJnUs --- You shine, and make others shine just by being near them. <cite>NFUN posted [p:946376026] in Board 8 Ra...
