This was scarlet's list suggestion for me, although I'm not really going to do a "list" per se since me trying to talk about the nuances of music would be pretty laughable! But since I'm probably going to be spending more time indoors for a while, this will be a nice thing to help keep me occupied!

The rules are pretty simple:

  1. Post one song at a time
  2. I will rate the songs from 1-10 and keep track of them in tiers
  3. Once I have rated the song you have posted, you may post another one
We'll keep going until I decide I don't want to rate songs anymore, I guess!

Oh right, the tiers have appropriate quotes to accompany them!

10 Im the best!

9 Ooh, soft.

8 Im more complex than you think.

7 There aint no gettin offa this train we on!

6 Im a general, not some opera floozy!

5 This is far from the strongest of swords!

4 Too weak to stand, and still as arrogant as could be.

3 Being able to die is a great gift? I still dont get it

2 Next to you, I realize just how pathetic I am

1 I, Garland, will knock you all down!

Battle at the Big Bridge

Oh man, coming strong out of the gate! This is definitely one of my favorite songs in the series. I distinctly remember the first time this song played in the game and just putting my controller down so I could listen to it. And then the fact that it showed up each time you fought Gilgamesh made it even better. This is the type of song that just gets you hyped up for a fight.

NBIceman posted...
The Man with the Machine Gun

Another very good song! It's upbeat and quirky, which is befitting of the switch from Squall to Laguna as the viewpoint character in FFVIII. It almost feels like there should be a disco ball hanging above the battlefield whenever this song starts up! Man, FFVIII has such good battle themes.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qmbgCBZ86z4

Oh hey, this is new to me! I'm impressed by the ability to find lyrics that fit the tune of the song and also fit the moment the song is about. Really pretty singing voice, too! It can't quite match up to the original, but as something a bit lighter and softer, it's really nice.

DragonImps posted...
VIIs standard battle theme

Nice choice! I'm one of the weirdos who actually prefers FFVII's regular battle theme over the boss theme! It's just really catchy and mixes things up enough so you aren't just sick and tired of listening to it by the end of the game. I love the way the song crescendos right before starting over. That's easily my favorite part of the song.

Obellisk posted...
Fisherman's Horizon

Definitely one of my favorite town themes in the series. It's just so smooth and relaxing, just like you'd expect for a town called Fisherman's Horizon. I can instantly imagine being there every time I hear this song. So good.

Hmm...I like the ominous tension of this one, but I feel like it doesn't really go anywhere. I think you'd have to hear this one in context to really appreciate it, and I can't really recall where this one plays off the top of my head!

Huh, I'm...not sure what to make of it! As far as the remix of the main tune, I kinda dig it, but at the same time, I don't really like all the weird sound and vocal effects they throw in. Also, I have to confess that I thought you said it was a Force Your Way remix, so I was very confused as to why I wasn't hearing it until I recognized the tune for Find Your Way in there! Whoops!

Oh hey, this is pretty cool! It's got a Nier/Chrono Cross kinda feel to it that I dig. It really does a lot of different things, so it doesn't overstay its welcome despite its length.

Ah yes, this instantly brings me back to the Festival of the Hunt! This is a fun little song. Certainly not one of my favorites, but it definitely gets the job done in the context of the game.

FFXIV - Ink Long Dry
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ExXhr8ch8Mk

This song feels like it's all over the place, but in a good way. It's got a jazzy sound to it at first, but then it jumps around to different types of sounds as it progresses. It almost could be considered jarring but manages to avoid feeling that way.

Anagram posted...
Setzer's Theme
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UFWwbctG_0s

Final Fantasy VI probably has the best set of character themes in the series. Setzer's isn't one of my favorites, but it's still good fun.

SwiftyDC posted...
Final Fantasy VIII - Balamb Garden

I've gotta be honest: I've listened to this song for who knows how many hours over the years that I don't really like listening to it on its own anymore. I don't mind it in the context of FFVIII because it just sorta becomes background noise after a while to me, It's a good song that works for the setting, but it just doesn't do anything for me anymore.

Aw yeah, this might be my favorite song from FFXIII. It'd be pretty close at any rate. I don't even understand 90% of the lyrics, but there's something mesmerizing about it. It's a very fitting song for the location and for a part of the game where you control Vanille. It's just so irrepressibly upbeat.

Two top tier songs in a row! I like how it transitions from the somber strings at the beginning to the electric guitar in the middle. This song is just beautiful.

Anyway, Searching For Friends (FF6)

It's hard to go wrong with a Final Fantasy airship theme. Searching for Friends isn't my absolute favorite, but it's symbolic of the sense of hope Celes regains through the World of Ruin as she gradually finds all of her old friends again. It's a glimmer of light in a dark world.
