I also think it was the milestone that marked Uematsu becoming a musical composer, not just a MIDI programmer.
Have you not heard any of his orchastrated Piece's he made prior to that song? He was a great composer long before Eyes on you.
umm, i've beaten every FF, and i'm not quite sure what you're talking about.

how long would you say that is? The only orchestrated piece that comes to mind is the end boss theme of VII, and I'm pretty sure he didn't compose that.

up to that point he was still only a game music programmer. A great one, but he was by no means above the rest. Until eyes on me, i would say, that's when he came into a class of his own and it's probably the reason he was able to become so successful outside of games. It was the milestone.
