I'm still amazed at how powerful the original track can be. It is, quite simply, just bleeps and bloops but Uematsu crafted it elegantly. The orchestrated versions of this track are of course rather fantastic, but I just love this theme. I wonder where it would rank in terms of "rebel themes" overall? In any case, what a great pick! I don't care if FFII is a "lesser" game, I love it all the same :colbert:
Yeah, I really liked the original too. Though the updated versions were better overall, I think they all lacked something the original had.
The original and energetic orchestral pieces were easily my favorites.
The original manages SO MUCH with so little... it's really catchy and portrays quite a lot of emotion as well.
And the final energetic video of the orchestral pieces... was just simply epic. I really enjoyed all the variations though. Makes me want to pick up and play FFII~
I still have never played FFII, but I imagine the original was good for its time. I am mostly impressed with how the theme has gotten progressively better as it has been redone. The Distant Worlds piece is a complete reimagining of the tone of the theme. I quite liked it.
Heh, I find it amusing that I HAVE heard this song before. This is one of the few things I remember about this game. This, and the fact that the party runs offscreen when they win a battle.
