As for the other music, I really loved the choral parts, like when Kadaj died. That music was not nothing special to me and my friends. I really enjoy Nobuo Uematsu's music, so hearing the new music was totally awesome! To me, at least...

Noli manere, manare in memoria (x2)

Sephiroth, Sephiroth

Saevam iram, iram et dolorem (x2)

Sephiroth, Sephiroth

Ferum terribile, ferum fatum

Noli manare, manere in memoria (x2)

Sephiroth, Sephiroth

Veni, mi fili. Veni, mi fili

Hic veni, da mihi mortem iterum

Veni, mi fili. Veni, mi fili

Hic veni, da mihi...

Noli manere in memoria

Saevam iram et dolorem

Ferum terribile fatum

Ille iterum veniet

Mi fili, veni, veni, veni, mi fili (x4)

Mi fili, veni, veni, veni, mi fili

(Qui mortem invitavis)

Mi fili, veni, veni, veni, mi fili

(Poena funesta natus)

Mi fili, veni, veni, veni, mi fili

(Noli nomen vocare)

Mi fili, veni, veni, veni, mi fili

(Ille iterum veniet)

Sephiroth, Sephiroth

Sephiroth

those are the new lyrics. ^^ i loved the music in advent children. it was awesome as always. all final fantasy music is good really...except for x2's...it was just ew.

I haven't heard any X2 music, nor do I especially wish to. I didn't particularly like FFX, so I don't see any point to getting X2. I also have heard nothing particularly good about X2....Perhaps its Spirits Within all over again... *shudders*

I liked X as far as storyline, graphics, music, and charaters...but...THE VOICE OVERS WERE HORRIBLE!!! They ruined the game for me. The best voice, in my opinion, was Seymor's.

I have (in order) Liberi Fatali(FFVIII), Theme of Love(FFV), FF I-III Medley, Aerith's Theme(FFVII), Don't Be Afraid(FFVIII), Terra's Theme(FFVI), Dear Friends(FFV), Vama'alla Flamenca(FFIX), To (or "At") Zanarkand(FFX), Love Grows(FFVIII), Suteki Da Ne(FFX), Melodies of Life(FFIX), One Winged Angel(FFVII), The Man With the Machine Gun(FFVIII), FFVII Main Theme, and Eyes On M(FFVIII). ^_^

I do, however, have a lot of piano sheet music for a lot of Uematsu-san's work. I just love how he makes such beautiful songs from fairly simlple melodies and harmonies. I wonder where his inspiration comes from. All I know is that his favorite FF song is the simple song called "Final Fantasy," y'know, the one you hear in FFVII after "Squaresoft" shows up when you turn the game on.

Y'know, he actually doesn't really like his orchestrated music for some reason. He loves stuff like Led Zeppelin.(I found it rather interesting that he liked them!)

Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children's score in collaboration with The Black Mages is surprisingly good, with its major negatives ---- that being that some of the guitar rifts sound like something taken out of "Batman Beyond" and "Batman Beyond: Return of the Joker" to be frank. Espically when Kadaj and Cloud are battling each other right before Kadaj absorbs the Jenova cells if I remember correctly. "Advent: One Winged Angel" is my favorite song from the film; The very long guitar solo was the best! You could really feel the energy from the musicians. The second would have to be CALLING by Himuro Kyosuke. The way the song is arranged makes you think of a song that would've been perfect (or ignored) back in the late 1990s, which is cool. One negative about the song is that the lyrics are completely over powered by instrumental. The other is the score piece they used when Kadaj summoned Bahamut-Sin in the center of Edge City and when Cloud goes up against the Bahamut-Sin by himself. I can't think of the name of the song.

And if only I could figure out how to read it properly to play it on a guitar...

Ah, must be the same tune from the first game, then. (as you can probably tell, I haven't been able to play VII for a while... Usagi ran off with it. And my computer version's install disc got a crack on the inside of the disc...)(I HATE FF VIII!!! It corrupted my files... now, I have to redo the whole game again *at least I've finished it like three times before... Hello Codebreaker...)

My mp3 player's an ipod mini. (paid 50 for it...) I've got about 20 more songs to put on...

The only two good songs in FF X are Return to Zanarkand and Otherworld (both versions that I've heard...)

That aside, goes anybody know where I can get a MP3 version of the revamped "ONE WINGED ANGEL" composition used in the FFVII digest feature from off the first "ADVENT CHILDREN" DVD? I listened to the orignal version and I disliked it (it sounds too much like VIDEO-GAME music, but what did I expect from a game made in '97?). No, I am not looking for ADVENT: ONE WINGED ANGEL, but the OWA they use so fondly in the trailer and FFVII digest feature.

Admittedly, pieces which were for the piano sounds nicely enough when played properly, but conversions e.g. JENOVA, isn't very good.

One Winged Angel/Sephiroth's theme is alright on the piano, but the bits and tuen that are sung don't always get played out. THen again, we only have two hands. Otherwise, some of the bits, when revised for the piano, sounds quite good.

:)

Orchestrations vary from one quality to the other, but most are done electronically so we can't compare. Personally, I think the Beginning and Ending Credits music was simply fabulous.

:;Is currently orchestrating part for Tifa's battle::

Just to get this out of my system, the tracks used during the Bahamut Shin's summoning and Cloud's battle with Bahamut Shin are as follows: "Tenrai~Divinity I~", and "Tenrai~Divinity II~", which I thought were actually good...

The piece used during Kadaj's death scene is "Yakusoku no Chi~The Promised Land~", which was also used during Marlene's narration in the beginning (the lyrics...when translated...are really weird).

For the version of "One-Winged Angel" used during "Reminiscence of Final Fantasy VII", that piece is actually on a soundtrack that was Japan exclusive...I believe in 1998 or '99...I can't remember...which was called "Final Fantasy VII: Reunion Tracks". However, you can probably find a copy over eBay, or find it over the net somewhere. It also includes 16 tracks from the original game, plus three orchestrated tracks, which are "Main Theme" (which I don't know why it's called that...I just refer it as first overworld theme...even though I left it as Main Theme...), "One-Winged Angel" (which sounded amazing orchestrated), and "Aerith no Theme". All three of the orchestrated tracks were used during "Reminiscence of Final Fantasy VII"

And, now that I think about it, it's quite scary. There are about six versions of the "One-Winged Angel" theme...Original, Kingdom Hearts, Ehrgeiz (which is just a rearrangment of the original), Piano, Reunion track, and Advent Children versions...

Personally, I like the Piano versions of Tifa no Theme and Aerith no Theme more than their original formats (from the game...). "Tatakau Mono Tachi" on the piano sounds...quite funny, yet enjoyable.

Okay, I'd better shut up now...I could have gone a little too overboard...
