Thread: Favourite song from the Final Fantasy VII OST

  1. #1

    Default Favourite song from the Final Fantasy VII OST

    For me, its definately "On the other side of the Mountain"

    The song only comes up once in the game, but perfectly sets the tone. Such a wide range of emotions spanned over a two minute midi guitar loop.

    VII has too many really good tracks. "Still More Fighting" is still the only normal boss theme in the series that I love to death. Granted a few people might cite some of the character themes as the best but I honestly enjoyed some of the more off-beat tracks.

    My two personal favorites are "The Great Warrior" and "The Flow of Life" made more amusing by the fact that I never cared for Red XIII or his story but both of my favorite tracks are during story segments involving him.

    "The Great Warrior" is just a really good track in my opinion. Its construction and feel is really well done. You get a real feel for Seto even though he has no interaction in the story whatsoever.

    "The Flow of Life" is slightly different, not only is it a beautiful ambient track but I feel the scene its used in was well executed and utilized for what I feel was a turning point for the games story. For those who don't remember, its the track that plays when Bugenhagen explains the nature of the Planet and the Lifestream as a living organism. Suddenly, saving the world was less hippie bull and more of a spiritual matter. I really felt the feel of the game changed after this point and this track fits the scene beautifully.

    ^Original soundtrack

    For me, my favourite is "World Crisis" (the ending theme)
    the last two or so minutes when the lifestream appears to strengthen Holy is pure aural orgasm.

    "Still More Fighting" is absolutly amazing, I was probably the first OST in the game I really took notice of. I also like Aeris' Theme because it makes me emotioal at times, I am emotional.

    I like "One Winged Angel" and the song that precedes it (I can't remember the title) The FFVII take on the Chocobo music is awsome (I think it's called "Eletric Chocobo, but I'm not sure)


    I actually more or less like all the songs at apropriate times (if that makes sense) If the song works in the scene of the game it sounds good whether I like it or not.

    I might do a thread on this...

    I think its called You Can Hear the Cry of the Planet

    But really. I think it'd be easier for me to pick out music I -didn't- like. Which off the top of my head I can't even think of anything :[

    The track that plays before (during the battle with Bizzaro Sephiroth) is titled "Birth of God"

    Indeed...
    The World Theme, Aerith's Theme, Interrupted by Fireworks, Lifestream... all those tunes move me like no other gaming music One-Winged Angel, JENOVA and Still More Fighting are mighty rockin' pieces of battle music.

    If I had to choose a single, absolute favourite from the entire soundtrack, it'd be from the final FMV: when the Lifestream rises up and helps to defeat Meteor. That scene, and it's musical accompaniment, are as close as I get to being moved to tears by a video game.

    Cait Sith's theme and Rufus' Welcoming Ceremony are very catchy! I really like them.
