Greatest Final Fantasy Soundtrack!!!

[Omni-Odin]

OK this game can be criticized all it wants to down the board, but the soundtrack is just so good. And this isn't even about 'Eyes on Me'. Even just walking around the world, all the places have their own unique sound that really sets the mood for where you are. Especially Balamb Garden which has the best background music in any game.

Does anyone else agree with me or does everyone just like 'Eyes on Me'?

[Christmas]

I like you!

[muzzer]

I totally agree, eyes on me isnt the best thing in the world. But it is good. However, there are some fantastic pieces on the soundtrack, love grows which is a based on the main eyes on me theme, the oath and the fantastic fishermans horizon. Uematsu created a master piece with this OST.

The orchestral arrangments of the pieces are soemthign to behold too, if any one has listened to "fithos Lusiec Weco Vinosec" youll know what i mean.

[demondude]

No

[Larahl]

I agree.
And the theme when you ride Ragnarok, is just plain awesome.

[Tallulah]

Final Fantasy VIII's soundtrack had some stand-out points, but neither the Balamb theme nor the Ragnarok theme were one of them.

I thank God the speakers are broken on my TV.

P.S: Triple Triad theme rocks!

[Dreddz]

One of the weaker soundtracks of the series. I liked the world map theme and a few others buts thats about it.

[Cookie]

I agree with general point of thread.

I agree, best FF soundtrack, IMO.

Balamb Garden's background music even gets me right there, I can't help but smile whenever I hear it.

And the battle themes have to be my favorites. Especially the regular random encounter music, and Laguna's battle theme.

I Also love that music playing the the Deep Sea Deposit, Fire Cavern and the entrance to Shumi Village.

So yeah, best soundtrack of all the FFs, IMO.

I love the soundtrack that plays when you start a new game. Just brilliant.

[ragnosica]

i like the piano versions of Succesion of witches and Find your Way and the orchestra version of end credits

[JonyH]

Find your way always got stuck in my head, but that's probably cos you hear it the most

FFVIII soundtrack is my fav by faaaaar. It's all on my iPod, and I like to put it on shuffle and imagine I'm in the specific places! :P

Well, in a less nerdy way - but seriously it really rocks, 'Maybe I'm a Lion' FTW! And also 'The Extreme' possibly just for the piano part!

Edit: What am I saying??? My god, I actually left out 'The Landing' otherwise known as the Dollet Assault music. Truly awesome. Truly.

[Rocket Edge]

VIII's soundtrack was my personal favourite too. It had some real deep music, but I think the best thing about it, what that it was perfectly suited for its surroundings.

[hanawa]

Well I set Balamb Garden 's Theme: Ami as my message alert tone. Previously it was Eyes on Me. In my phone I have all FFVIII soundtracks. "Really appreciate them all," my heart once said.

~sigh~ different people, different minds and brains, different souls, different opinions, different tastes and interests. So PLEASE respect others. Dont simply throw muds on other's faces. I sensed this in most forums.

[Little Blue]

Its one of the good 'uns. Don't Be Afraid is the best battle theme in the history of battle themes, better than whatever the poor eunuch sang over the Battle of Hastings.

However, Eyes on Me is not so good, as are a good many other tracks.
