== General ==
* The [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FQwAxMiKHPo Final Fantasy] [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ciOF-TCp-68 Main] [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XHuYCM5pxcw Theme], also referred to as the [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lEti8uugFSE&feature=related Prologue]. Especially the [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ylDWCl0WAbo the way it was used] as the [[Theme Music Power
** Also the [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HM7MGqzekFU awesome version] in the opening of ''[[Final Fantasy XII (Video Game)|Final Fantasy XII]]''.
* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f2NH1vjFzMc The] [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HsPRNAZ2ILU Crystal] [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=By1iaOAvXRM Theme]. AKA the [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o1FZ3Tz7dDE Prelude]. It's even more awesome when you realize it was a [[Throw It In]]; the song took Uematsu all of ten minutes to put it together.
Line 105:
** Here is another performance in English performed by [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=36TdZx8VgbA&hd=1 The Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra.]
** It's also re-used in the game as [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WoBn04lcNmo Celes' personal theme]. Used later to its [[Tear Jerker|greatest effect]] for {{spoiler|Celes' suicide attempt}}.
** Also [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8grDOQzYWck rearranged beautifully] for the [[What Could Have Been|ill-fated]] ''Final Fantasy VI: Grand Finale'' album. This version features [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jm7snFbbu-g Svetla Krasteva] singing soprano. [[What Do You Mean
* The [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=viFJ0tdwuS8 PSX Intro] of FFVI is quite nice, yet the original [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hu6hWy4x_cc introduction music] is the most memorable: first with the ominous [[Foreshadowing|16 bits foreshadowing music]], then with the heroine's theme...
** Then there's [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eTM1FRZLSSw&fmt=18 Terra's theme] by itself, used for the world map. It's even more amazing when played [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WHo6QTW-97E with vocals and actual instruments]. (That's "Toki no Horousha", on the album "Final Fantasy: Pray".)
Line 165:
== [[Final Fantasy VII]] ==
* After building up with some pretty good boss themes, ''[[Final Fantasy VII (Video Game)|Final Fantasy VII]]'' unleashes [[Trope Namer|the]] [[One
** [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0NoTqlp03Xs One Winged Angel] ''with the Mario Paint music program.'' Or how about One Winged Angel ''[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yn71hIsm0U8 with full orchestra?]''
** ''[[Advent Children]]'' takes the tune to its [[Up to Eleven|fullest extent of awesomeness]] (to date) by turning the whole thing into pompous, Nightwish-esque '''[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B_MW65XxS7s symphonic metal]'''.
Line 418:
* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q_7lq-58DHY&feature=related Etro's Champion], the battle theme in the introduction.
* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-pZk0wDaNts The Last Hunter], the main battle theme.
* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hEUOOgNzOv4 Crazy Chocobo], which is either [[So Bad
* While we're on the subject of metal music, [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uncwKFZflS0 Limit Break] certainly qualifies.
* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b8vXYBEvSow Caius's theme]
Line 486:
== [[Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles]] ==
* The music from ''[[Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles]]'' was composed by Kumi Tanioka. Some highlights: Kaze No Ne/Sound of the Wind (the opening) in both [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5J7uDRzJvx8 English] and [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8b6mkTELUGU Japanese], the [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=caT_9AGjFE0 ending] song, and [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aB_YSfOx06Q "Unite, Descent"], the final boss theme.
* {{spoiler|Raem's}} original boss theme, [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e1BQQlozhzs "Sad Monster"]. It takes all the instruments used in all the previous songs in the game, and turns it into a song that [[Hot Blooded|really gets the blood pumping]], readying you for the {{spoiler|pen}}ultimate battle. Bonus points for the title actually being a [[Meaningful Name]] {{spoiler|-- Raem may seem like a [[Big Bad]] when you first hear him, but once you hand him his phoenix behind on a silver platter he becomes a whimpering, simpering creature whose only desire is to live . . . of course, he then eats his only companion and goes [[One
** Never have bagpipes been more epic.
