So I've been thinking on SMT and Persona and naturally I came back to what a masterpiece P4G was. I was listening to some of the music and it reminded me of this idea I've had before.

If you could pick one song from a game's soundtrack to try and represent everything that the game is, which would it be?

For instance, if I had to pick THE song for P4G....

True, it's somber while the game is pretty cheerful overall.
It's only the theme for the shortlived winter part.
I don't even think it's in the original game.

But for me, it's absolutely the most powerful song in the game. While it's heartbreaking, it only holds that power because you've given your heart to these characters. You've been through so much, both good and bad, and this song is every bit as beautiful as it is sad.

Another example, this one I've known for a long time. It's for Final Fantasy X.

As the song that plays when you first to get Zanarkand, when you reach that point you've been building up to for so many hours now, it encapsulates all the emotions you will be feeling in this game. As by far the darkest Final Fantasy in my humble opinion, this song just really gets the mood of the game across so perfectly. The tragedy and whimsy of this fantasy world you've delved into.
