Line 68:
* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ehx1vUvSqgI Hey, Cid!]. A simple yet inspiring and cheerful song.
* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9zrS8LzSkV0&fmt=18 Within the Giant], played in [[The Very Definitely Final Dungeon]]. {{spoiler|In the one before it, too.}}
* [[
** From the same album, [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bcnaab6alfY Fighting for Tomorrow], a choral remix of the Fabul theme, and [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=csSxgjY9CCw "Fallen Dragoon"], the Remix of "Suspicion."
* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=giw4e6U5A9s The Mysterious Girl's battle theme] in ''The After Years''. Every time it plays is a huge [[Crowning Moment of Awesome|Crowning Moment]]. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p7wYrbNdX1k The final boss themes] aren't worth complaining about either.
Line 112:
* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9WlrcP2zcys Dancing] [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-xpUOrwVMHo Mad] from ''[[Final Fantasy VI]]'' is especially notable because it samples at least three songs from earlier in the game, melding them together with some Bach to create the opera of madness. The fact that Nobuo Uematsu lists it as one of his favorites should be a tell-tale sign.
** [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FRnDbOwGipo The final section] of the song is particularly awesome in my mind, if for no other reason than because it includes Kefka's distinctive laugh as part of the music.
** [https://web.archive.org/web/20110418005750/http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-2123332194080245535
** [http://www.destructoid.com/final-fantasy-vi-s-dancing-mad-a-critical-analysis-157570.phtml This] detailed, critical analysis of Dancing Mad should be enough to make even the few who are left unimpressed by the music itself change their opinion and admit that it is an ingenious masterpiece concieved by an ingenious composer.
** And [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jMFCM0SKbnY this version] from the recent ''Distant Worlds II'' album.
** [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ib6ZySkP4_0 This] [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4uTDwipqshA orchestral] [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RY3pylw5RTM version] by [[
** [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hdt74rarv4g The Black Mages' cover] of it from their very first album should not be missed either, as it is ''glorious.''
** [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-SyLJ3MuQrs This one's] not exactly lousy either.
Line 439:
* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iD6UW7ZP10c&feature=related The boss theme.]

* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BpDqoeO5XdY&hd=1 Recapture Strategy]
Line 524:
* ''Heavy Metal Arrange Album GUARVAIL'', taking tracks from a ton of the games and turning them into metal of awesomeness. The whole album is pretty sweet, but the ones of the most note are the arrangements of [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zsKbs8Eg7aE The Extreme], [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H3SSXOfQ4lk The FF Main Theme], [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8jDgqQx7Sqc Battle Scene A], and last but most definitely not the least, [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FSDLPnJxVhM Dan][http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QNuxXSjd1OY ci][http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h-LT9jtdfmQ ng] [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GmgKrDDqSMI Mad].
* Nearly all of ''Love Will Grow'', the [[Spiritual Successor]] to the aforementioned Final Fantasy: Pray album, belongs here.
* The remixes from [https://web.archive.org/web/20130113170324/http://www.dontpressstart.com/pro/SF6/ Sega Fantasy 6], a parody video taking the 7th Gen console wars and fitting them in flawlessly into [[Final Fantasy VI]]'s last battle, deserve mentioning here.
* CROW'S CLAW, known for its Touhou arranges, has also done some awesome remixes of Final Fantasy songs.
* While most of his other work has been [[Crowning Moment of Funny|humorous]], [[Brental Floss]]' [[With Lyrics|take on the]] [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OyjTDiNWT0k main theme] is nothing short of masterful.
Line 531:
* ''Fithos Lusec Wecos Vinosec.'' This album as a whole is one of the better arrangement albums by Shirō Hamaguchi, including "Liberi Fatali" and the complete [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=voMy4OJ4_qY ending theme with the reprise of "Eyes On Me"] (as well as the original)...but it also gives us the above-mentioned "Don't Be Afraid," "Fisherman's Horizon," [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZRiCXn3QM70 "The Oath,"] and a [[Tear Jerker]] string-quartet rendition of [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iRsxl8pQGkc "Fragments of Memories."] Definitely a [[Crowning Music of Awesome]] in its own right.
