Rose of May

[Chris]

This is one of my favorite songs from Final Fantasy IX.
Its so good that I just had to make a special thread dedicated
solely to this song.
If you don't remember where the song appears I'll tell you,
it plays after Cleyra has been destroyed and Zidane and company are on the Red Rose.
Specificly, it plays during Beatrix' little escapade.

So what do you think of the song?

Edit: replace the last option in the poll with "piece" instead of "peace" I was little fast on that one

[Rostum]

Yeah it's a great song! Love it. Not the best in the game, but defenatly a great song.

[abrojtm]

Isn't this song called "Loss of Me"? Oh well, whatever. It's one of my favorites, but not quite my favorite. I can play it on the piano

[Dark Matter]

The best song in FFIX!!

it plays after Cleyra has been destroyed and Zidane and company are on the Red Rose.
Specificly, it plays during Beatrix' little escapade.

I forgot about that ...
Hey, I think it's also played when Zidane's looking for Dagger in Disc 3!
But, Zidane didn't know where she went, so, he's trying to find Beatrix first. The song perfectly suited Beatrix.

PS: What does "Rose of May" mean?? I don't quite understand.

exactly the same for me..

[Optium]

I thought it was Loss of Me, too. I can't play it yet though, I'm working on
the song "Attack" from FFX. ING NUTS...pardon my French.

Uhm, it's good. There are plenty of better songs on the FFIX soundtrack, though.

And "Loss of Me" is just a mistranslation.

[Big D]

"Rose of May" is the real name, but "Loss of Me" has the advantage of actually meaning something to do with the game. It's a nice description of Beatrix's inner turmoil about behaving in a non-Paladin-like manner after getting manipulated by her Queen, rather like FFIV spoilerCecil, FFIV's Dark Knight turned Paladin.

[Trumpet Thief]

chaos: I definetly know that Loss of Me was better than good, yet still, there are countless amounts of great pieces of music on FFIX that it's hard to choose.

Rubedo: But overall, I found it catchy, and it could really show the true beauty of many scenes. Nearly the best, for me.

[Levian]

Hey, does anyone know the name of the song that is played in the area between Dali and Treno? It's that place with the two gates.. The music is somewhat similar to the intro music, but not identical. That's the nicest song. So peaceful. It's also played during Steiner and Garnet's travels at the South Gate.

Edit: oops, missed the topic. Yeah it's a good song. One of the best of FFIX Not the best though.

[Ultima Shadow]

Great song but not the best. I love it. But I still think the Dark Messenger and You're Not Alone are the best...

Here you go; its called "At the South Gate Border."

And yes...its a wonderful piece of music.

[Armisael]

yeah that is great too..you're right Levian it's so nice and peaceful..

[Zifnab]

I prefered the faster one called Protecting my Devotion, myself. Rose of May sets the mood for me, nothing more.

[Dark_Sephiroth666]

I like it coz I can kinda play it on the piano and it just has a nice feel to it.
