Video game music - the noninstrumental kind

[Miriel]

So I just discovered this: Exile Vilify - - Portal 2 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IUOGUJEUQi8\)

And I love it so god damn much. Been listening to it all day.

It reminded me that Red Dead Redemption had good music too, and so then I started listening to this for the past hour: Deadman's Gun - Red Dead Redemption Soundtrack - YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yag41F7eCLU)

It's so so lovely.

The song Jose Gonzalez did for Red Dead is nice too: Far Away (with lyrics) - Red Dead Redemption Soundtrack - YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7IkvAb6THQY)

Are there more? Tell meeeee!

[Del Murder]

Still Alive is probably the best vocal song I've ever heard in a video game.

I like the KH songs. Simple & Clean is addicting.

going through a sewer will never be more exciting!

[Shorty]

Silent Hill 3 - You're Not here (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SZmMD84XpCs)

[Quindiana Jones]

Another excellent RDR tune. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0wfNjf1cWRs) Riding into Mexico with Far Away playing is one of my favourite moments of gaming.

Also, the title theme to Dragon's Dogma (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1LNwrv--DmU) is just brilliant. I love that it starts in that really typical and overused fantasy RPG style and then, OH WAIT, PSYCH, it's actually totally awesome.

The Ladder was the toughest boss in that game.

I love Still Alive. <3

Lonely Rolling Star (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7_QydNXI_ok) and There's a Zombie on your Lawn (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0N1_0SUGlDQ) for my happy cutesy moods
Room of Angel (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NdXCsXcs6nA) for my dark, kind of creepy moods
Song of the Ancients/Devola (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JbcwLY3RQq8) for my chill moods
Wind Nocturne (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FZ8nyFGuqBo) and Everything's Alright (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t7dRTIhvqG8) for my emo moods

[Depression Moon]

Come on, Melodies of Life y'all!

[Heath]

I always quite liked Life Returns (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w_0JfNkcClU), which is played at the end of Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance. Of the Square-Enix ones, I think my favourite was probably Simple and Clean which, as Del pointed out, is a very addictive song. On the whole, I prefer the instrumental ones though.

[Shattered Dreamer]

I love this song Bad Voodoo- The Kreeps (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h-08KZo4KXM)

[Calvin10]

I love this song Bad Voodoo- The Kreeps (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h-08KZo4KXM)

I agree with you. I love the video game and music. Thanks for sharing.

[Shauna]

A lot of the P4 soundtrack is awesome for this sort of muuzacs. Heaven (http://youtu.be/463Us587Z9o) is possibly my favourite.

Bastion has an awesome soundtrack. I'm glad I got it in the Humble Bundle since they gave the OST as a bonus.

Snake Eater is better than most James Bond theme songs.

Valve always has really good music in their games for not really putting any emphasis on it aside from crescendo moments.

Bethesda has great music in the Elder Scrolls games but I think it's just because Jeremy Seoul (sic?) is one of the best modern composers. Every time his tracks come up on my Pandora I'm amazed at how lush they sound when you're not listening to them in-game.

[Night Fury]

It may just be that I'm a fan of Leona Lewis, but I really like 'My Hands' from FFXIII.

I also like the Silent Hill music, Room of Angel, You're Not Here and I Want Love are excellent.

Eyes on Me is brilliant, but I do prefer Angela Aki's version.

At the VGO concert I went to they transitioned the Main Theme of MGS3 into Snake Eater. Pretty sure I died.

There sure are a lot of links in this thread that go to the wrong place :colbert:

Guile Theme - YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Iof5pRAIZmw)

While I like Guile's theme, I thought we were discussing vocal tracks?

That aside, your link led me to this video, which is one of the most bizarre combination of things I've seen in a YouTube video for a long time. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vsPORZlcWB0&feature=related)

Same here. For me, I think it's because it's more grammatically correct, lol.



I also love Suteki Da Ne and Melodies of Life if we're talking FF music that have lyrics.
