Holy crap so many

Gonna vote SQ Chips because I love me some SQ Chips, always

[qwertysaur]

Thanks for making this multi-choice. :jess:

[Galuf]

I like the tbm version the best. Sounds like Gilgamesh.... in space

[Darth Ganon]

I always go back to the original, but that Record Keeper version with Ahead on Our Way thrown in. Wow.

[theundeadhero]

The black mages all the way. Its amazing.

[maybee]

Such a tough choice. Really love the OG, FFXIV and Black Mages versions the most.

Dislike the XIII-2 and LR versions the most. XIII-2 sounds like it belongs on a episode of Naruto.

[Sefie1999AD]

Nothing beats the original, but I did enjoy the Dissidia arrangement too.


Dislike the XIII-2 and LR versions the most.

To be fair, LR's Gilgamesh remix isn't a battle song. It's a funny moment when street musicians in a city play some short covers of FF songs.

[Shiva95]

It's very hard to decide, but I think it's FFXV's one for me.

[krissy]

thank you michael84

also the best one is lightning returns for sure

[Del Murder]

I was always partial to the original the most.

[Wolf Kanno]

Most versions are good. I love the original and the Black Mage versions. I also love this piano mix:

[Lord Golbez]

"Video unavailable"- Dare I say most of these? And I certainly don't know most to compare, but Black Mages as the 20th anniversary one are both quite.

[Del Murder]

Well, this thread was started in 2017. Maybe someone can find updated videos since I do love this song. One of my top 5 favorite FF songs.

[Shauna]

I don't even remember making this thread.

I'll put a pin in it and see if I can find new versions. It is possible some of these were on the ol' EoFF YT page, which is now gone.

[Shauna]

eh i fixed it now.

but i have a new contender(s)! they love remixing this song (also idk if any of these are straight lifts of over arrangements, but i'm not listening to them all)

Thanks a lot for updating the links, Shauna! These are awesome. I listened to them all. :D

My favorite is still the original, probably because I heard it the most so it is tough to say that isn't how it is supposed to sound. Here's my top 5 remixes:

1. FFXIV - did not expect this, but I like all that bass
2. Record Keeper - #1 but #3 is also great (and similar). Also shout out to #2 for bringing the vocals into it. Record Keeper has some jams!
3. Dissidia/Type-0
4. Piano Opera
5. The Black Mages

Maybe I'll go through later and rank the rest since I'm such a nerd for this track.
