I'm probably 100% certain there is a thread for this but I was listening to my Chrono Trigger music CD and decided to ask without necroing a thread - and it might belong in music but frankly I don't care. My top 3 are probably...

Chrono Trigger - Frog's Theme or Magus' Theme
Final Fantasy 6 - Terra's Theme
Final Fantasy 7/Kingdom Hearts - One Winged Angel

Also use this thread to discuss the brilliance that is Nobuo Uematsu or ocremix.org

Go.

As far as favorites are concerned, I have too many. But for nostalgia, I'd say...

Gangplank Galleon ~ Donkey Kong Country
End Credits Theme ~ Wario Land 3
Grunty's Hub World Main Theme ~ Banjo-Kazooie

Also, Dancing Mad is the only Nobuo song that has ever stuck out to me.

My top three in no particular order:

"Beowulf" - Theme from SRW OG

"Knightblazer's Theme" - Wild Arms 2 (And most of the Wild Arms 2 OST for that matter)

Zero's theme - The Mega Man Zero version

If I could I'd list most of the music from Shadow Hearts 1 & 2, and a few more select tracks from the first two Wild Arms games.

No particular order

Xenogears' "One Who Bears Its Fangs At God" (Last battle theme, pretty mind-blowing)
NES DuckTales' "Moon Theme"
Secret Of Mana's opening theme, which name I can't remember.

EDIT: More three

Chrono Cross' "Scars of Time"
Illusion Of Gaia's "Mu Theme"
Final Fantasy IV's "Red Wings"

I can't pick three, but here are some of my favorite NES/Famicom tunes.

Double Dragon II - Shadow Boss
DuckTales - Moon
Mega Man 3 - Magnet Man
Final Fantasy - Matoya's Cave
Earthbound Zero (Mother) - Pollyanna

Honorable mentions:
Crystalis - Mt. Sabre
Blaster Master - Area 1
Journey to Silius - Stage 1
Bionic Commando - Area 1

Among many others.

As for SNES, there's still a lot to choose from, but everything in Chrono Trigger is phenomenal. And of course you can't go wrong with Uematsu.

Damn, I should've added Liz and Ard's theme. That song was catchy as all get out.

Yep, still on the first page too: http://www.sydlexia.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=8991

Narrowing it down to a top 3 is nearly impossible though...

Contra 3:The Alien Wars - Stage 3
Chrono Trigger - The Black Omen
Final Fantasy 6 - The Retuners

Ask me again and it'll be 3 different songs Very Happy

Well, the game is what it is, but that theme is awesome and the heavy metal version by Hellion Sounds adds approximately 900% more awesomeness to it.


It's amazing how many of life's problems are solved by indiscriminate cannon fire.

Agree, that song was fucking epic. Xenogears had some fantasic music.

I would add:

Double Dragon - Main theme

Castlevania Symphony of the Night - "Dracula's Castle" (not totally sure of the name, but the first song that plays when Alucard enters the castle)

Castlevania II Simon's Quest - "daytime" theme

All of the songs from Ocarina of Time as well. I have the soundtrack album and it is fucking awesome. I can even play some of the songs on my ocarina, which is modeled after the Ocarina of Time from the game.
