Top 5 Video Game Songs From Your Childhood

Most of us grew up playing tons of video games. I'm sure a lot of you, like me, have your favorite video games songs! Post your top 5, I'm curious to see if there's any consistency. Links to midi's or w/e would be wonderful (I guess you can count songs from rockband if you want, however I'm more focused on in-game originals).

*These are in no particular order*

- Kefka's theme song from Final Fantasy III / VI. http://www.ffshrine.org/ff6/ff6mid/ff6-1-08-kefka.mid
- J-E-N-O-V-A in Final Fantasy VII. http://www.ffshrine.org/ff7/ff7/ff7-...-e-n-o-v-a.mid (The midi doesn't do the actual song justice if anyone has it).
- Magus's theme song from Chrono Trigger. http://www.rpgamer.com/games/chrono/...midi/magus.mid
- Gerudo Valley from Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. http://www.vgmusic.com/music/console.../z64gerudo.mid
- Aria Di Mezzo Carattere (From the Opera Scene in Final Fantasy III / VI). http://www.vgmusic.com/music/console...nes/opera2.mid - I always thought this was a great scene from the game.

I can't quite explain it but this one stirs some powerful emotions within me for some reason I get SUPER nostalgic.


This one is the same way, but less forcefully so and more in line with what I'd expect.




Round it out with Frog's, Magus's and the Ending Battle themes from Chrono Trigger which were all amazing on a whole 'nother level from the first two I posted but don't stir quite the same raw feeling.

LOL over the course of my post I forgot the thread title and added a way to recent game.

1. Super Mario World - The Entire Soundtrack (Forest of Illusion here) When I hear ANY song from Super Mario World, I am transported back to when I was 6. I smell things I haven't smelt in almost two decades. I see people I haven't seen in years. And it just makes me happy.
2. Xenogears - Light From The Netherworld My vision gets fuzzy when I hear this. I can see the neon outlines of the Xenogears intro movie of Deus coming alive and attacking the Eldridge. Gives me chills.
3. Zombies Ate My Neighbors - Chainsaw Hedgemaze Mayhem Level 4 of ZATM. The music is amplified in-game by the sound of chainsaws ripping through anything and everything. Terrifying.
4. Sonic 2 - Chemical Plant Zone - Similar to Super Mario World, hearing the music from any Sonic transports me back to my 6 year old self. I can smell my cousin's old house when I hear Chemical Plant Zone or Emerald Hill Zone, and I haven't been there in over a decade. It's insane.
5. DOOM - E1M1
'Nuff said.


Oh, runners up (wasn't really a child when I played either of them though) -- FF7 - Mako Reactor / FF3/6 - Terra's Theme

Final Fantasy theme done by the Boston Symphony Orchestra is one of my favorites. They also do Terra's theme really well.

Remix of Terra's theme found here: YouTube - Ailsean - FF6 - Terra In Black

I like Gerudo Valley too...particularly this version: YouTube - Zelda - Gerudo Valley

Top 5 songs of my childhood: Probably 3 from Chrono Trigger (fucking pick 3; that game had the best sound track ever made for any game, ever), 1 from FF7 (overworld theme) and probably Bramble Blast from DKC2




Edit: Attached a better version of the above

I agree with you 100%. Super Mario World was the first video game I ever owned back when I had a TV with rabbit ears and channels were changed via using a knob.
