Mako Reactor: 256,150
This list starts off with a song that is both threatening and urgent. There’s no way to make it better. Its pace remains consistent throughout the duration. This is one of the first songs you hear in the game, and it’s also one of the first songs on the Spotify soundtrack. Here is where the very dark music of Final Fantasy VII begins and keeps going.
Despite all the bad news, it does make you feel like you’re getting somewhere. You’ll get through this somehow, and the end is in sight.
Tifa’s Theme: 323,060
The last song would have made anyone shake in their boots, but Tifa’s Theme might make you shed a tear. It tells you a little bit about Tifa’s personality and gives you a healthy dose of sad empathy. It is a song that argues that video game characters are real people who feel pain just like we do.
Tifa is a sweetheart, and her strength can’t be beat, but she keeps her feelings to herself instead of letting others feel their best. Because of how she acted, so many people still admire and love her.
Anxiety: 326,101
Do you sense that something is wrong? Something that makes you feel slightly uncomfortable or, dare I say, anxious? This song doesn’t make you feel anxious in the way that some video game music does. It moves slowly, and there are a few spots where the harmony doesn’t fit together. This is something that the wrong composer could mess up forever.
Nobuo Uematsu leaves you alone, which is the worst thing that some people fear. If you feel off-balance or lonely by the end of the track, he’s done a good job.
Opening Bombing Mission: 410,083
This one had to be at the top of the list, of course. This piece is in the first area of the game and the second song on the soundtrack. It has a lot of meaning outside of Final Fantasy VII, though. First of all, Guard Scorpion is one of the most famous bosses in the history of video games. Second, the trumpet beat is like hot glue for your brain. It moves quickly and reminds you that you are looking at an epidemic.
If you can do it, that’s great! You’re free to go. But you never really were in danger to begin with, were you?
The Prelude: 505,522
Fans of Final Fantasy will recognize this epic opening track. This has been the main point of our adventure and how we got to each new world from the start. There are small changes and “a-ha!” moments in each iteration that set it apart from the others. It’s beautiful enough to make anyone cry, but remember all the good times we had along the way. “The Prelude” is a song that will last through all ages and all of our dreams until we reach the real Final Fantasy in our own lives. All we can ever hope for and dream of is that.
Aerith’s Theme: 544,743
When you know your fate, you know how to live your life to the fullest. When the player knows something bad is going to happen, they will probably do anything they can to stop it. When it comes to Aerith, there’s not much you can do but watch it happen.
Like Tifa, Aerith is praised for being a great character who died in a sad way. The numbers show that she has been a character in half a million plays. With this remake, people can fall in love with her all over again.
One-Winged Angel: 637, 133
Get ready for a boss battle that is cruel and unforgiving. Congratulations, you’ve made it this far. This boss is different from any you’ve seen before, and when you add the vocals, you really feel like you’re in a spiritual place. The background is abstract, like the empty space where nothing seems to exist.
Don’t let this group of things scare you too much. Sepiroth has you right where he wants you as soon as you start to feel proud. If you play your cards right and pray for a small number of Supernovas, you might win.
JENOVA: 646,776
This is a pretty calm song to play over a blue alien lady who is trying to kill you while she sleeps and is upset. In her true form, she changes into a monster that looks like coral but has sharp edges. The more you fight it, the stranger it gets. Each of the three fights, with the elements, laser beams, and tentacle slaps, is a different challenge. You are completely wrong if you think that your last plan will work for the way it is now.
In this case, it’s not the music that gets to you and takes over. The battle doesn’t need to be hyped up any more than it already is.
Let the Battles Begin: 900,059
You’ll be thinking about this one for a long time. You can’t get away from it no matter where you go, what you do, or how much you train. It’s more than exciting when you hear the first few seconds of the song and the screen starts to move. Even if the enemy you’re fighting is weak, the music could make it seem like you’re up against a huge monster. The song’s straightforward rhythm is powerful enough to keep you rooted, which is especially useful if you’re in need of EXP. So you should not run.
Fight On!: 917,338
At number one, we have something that is both aggressive and full of energy. “Fight On!” is a song with a full band of instruments and a space-age sound. The title fits perfectly with what it wants you to do. In games like Final Fantasy VII, you don’t have much time to think or do anything. So, is there something we should be waiting for? SoundCloud Downloader is a tool that lets you save songs and tracks from SoundCloud as MP3.
No, that’s not a good enough reason. Go out and fight like a real renegade rebel, and make sure you win.
