ffvii - interrupted by fireworks
this seems to be a very underrated piece, not much people know about it i think.
simple, yet sweet.

ffviii - waltz to the moon
very upbeat and catchy.

ffvii - main theme
best main theme ever. the unison of the sounds is just amazing.

chrono trigger - a far-off promise (to good friends)
something fresh out of a music box. very babyish and charming. my personal favourite.

ffix - melodies of life
lyrics are cheesy, nevertheless this piano piece is an absolute masterpiece.

im curious to see what you people think.
i highly reccommend the (reborn) series, which are a collection of arranged final fantasy pieces by a man named michael huang. you can find em at

www.fantasyreborn.com

not for the light hearted or beginner. check out his aeris theme v2, melodies of life and to zanarkand.

FFVII- Aeris's theme, It's very pretty and well done. One winged angel, It's a cool piece and keeps me on the edge of my seat.

FFIX- Eternal Harvest, It's upbeat and awesome.

All FFs- Victory theme (The one that plays when you defeat an enemy), It's a very catchy tune.

FF7 - Aeris's Theme(Pure Heart)
It's so sweet and memorable.
FF8 - The Successor
Fell in love with this song as soon as I heard it, and I like the mysterious aura it emits when you play it.
FF9 - Beatrix's Theme(Loss of Me or Roses of May)
It's so fun! And I love how the melody transcends from a light-hearted tune into something ineffably powerful and alluring. Can't explain. XD
FFX - To Zanarkand
Has a wonderfully nocturnal atmosphere, and I like manipulating the piece to match how I feel. ^_____^
FF6 or 5 or 4 (don't remember which ^^;) - Tenderness in the Air
Starts out softly and sweetly, and I just love the song.

*gasp* Everyone forgot about Kingdom Hearts! Oh well, I'll be the first.

Kingdom Hearts Dearly Beloved
I can sit and listen to this for hours on end! It inspires me to draw, write, and even do homework! @_@
Kingdom Hearts Kairi I & II
It's very soothing music. This always makes me remember SoraXKairi pair. ^_^
Kingdom Hearts Treasured Memories
This makes me remember how good friends can never forget each other, like Sora and Riku. *sigh* I can so relate to this song.
Kingdom Hearts Just an Itty Bitty Too Much
I've never heard this while playing the game, but it's very upbeat and bouncy!

I like this song! I just keep humming to it!

One of Utada Hikaru's absolute masterpieces. I always have to sing this too.
Final Fantasy VII Aeris's Theme
Reminds me of Cloud falling through that church building's roof and onto the flowers... *sigh*
Final Fantasy VII Tifa's Theme
This is such a pretty song. My brother even agrees with me no doubt, and pretty stuff makes him embarrassed.
Final Fantasy VII Theme Song
It's kinda long, but the beginning is like :lol: Yay!
Final Fantasy X To Zanarkand
One of the most calming and beautiful songs introduced to Square Enix/Soft
Final Fantasy X-2 1000 Words/1000 No Kotoba
I like this song. It's fun to sing and it has good lyrics.
