If there is one thing Square has never really faltered on, it's been its wonderful collection of musical talent through all of there games. So which tracks get you the most emotional?

I love the piano collections arrangement of 'Bran Bal', from IX. It sounds so solemn and melancholic without being truly 'sad'. Sort of separated, emotionally, which I think works well to demonstrate the vacancy of the society in the game itself. :)

FFX: Macalania Woods, A Fleeting Dream
FFXIV: Snowcloak Theme, Through The Gloom

FFVII's Opening/Bombing Mission always makes the hair on the back of my neck stand up, and Interrupted by Fireworks is beautiful.

Have you heard the Piano Opera version? Brings new feels to...err...the feels? :)

FFIV: Theme of love - It's so romantic but at the same time melancholic because you think of poor Kain :(

FFVII: Kalm - so underrated! It's actually my favorite theme in VII, so sweet and relaxing

FFVIII: The oath - when Squall makes his first speech as commander to encourage his comrades and fellow SeeD/students that are fighting and injured in the garden war...so much feels!

FFX: In a fleeting dream - beautiful but again also melancholic

Bravely default: The immortal country - A.K.A Eternia's theme: beautiful, riveting, gives you the feeling of ice and snow.

Bravely default: Wicked battle - Everything about this is wonderful and badass. The electric guitars really makes it adrenalin pumping!

Valkyrie profile: Behave irrationally - pretty, thought-inducing and haunting

There was one track that really caught my ear as a symphonic metal/female singer/female fronted music fan. That track is "Ruined Hometown" from FF:XIII-2 and as a easter egg tune in Lightning Returns.

I first heard it while playing LR and I would often stop in the Dead Dunes just to hear it. I would just go to the right place at the right time in the Dead Dunes and open up the map and listen to the song. I listened to the song so many times in a row that I ended up downloading it to my iPod.
At first, I didn't know the songs title and I searched the LR OST for it but did not find it.
It was driving me crazy. "FIND IT!"
Finally a fellow FF fan told me the song was from XIII-2 after I posted partial lyrics from the song.

The rest of the music from the XIII series is pretty good too.
But "Ruined Hometown" struck a chord with me.

Aerith's Theme
To Zanarkand
Final Fantasy Main Theme
People of the North Pole/ Servants of the Mountain

Hearing some of those live at the Distant Worlds concert was a whole new experience. I definitely did get teary eyed at Aerith's Theme though I didn't when I played the actual game because her death was already spoiled.

To Zanarkand and Rose of May are the two that come to mind

Argh, you JUST beat me to it. The song itself makes me choke up, but when I'm playing the game and Serge disappears, leaving Kid alone I just lose it.
