Xenogears (feat. Joanne Hogg) - Small Two Of Pieces ~ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-fPsckOzwcc

 

[KiraXD]

The beginning of my love of Suicide Machines started with Tony Hawks Pro Skater... also Goldfinger... (i know not TECHNICALLY video game music... but music in a video game...)

Suicide Machines - New Girl - Tony Hawks Pro Skater

Goldfinger - Superman - Tony Hawks Pro Skater

 

[SolVanderlyn]

I don't care how cheesy it is. It screams Guilty Gear and I love it. And it was in the Xrd announcement, so it will be forever linked to that "OH SHI-" moment.

Guilty Gear Xrd - Heavy Day

 

[Zengar]

A love suicide - Rule of Rose
Beyond the bounds -Zone of Enders 2
Small two of pieces-Xenogears

Most of the songs from Nier OST

 

[Creaking]

The Tekken 5 opening theme


Though that may be more because it's the best Tekken opening of them all. 2005 and that CG looks tight. That and Soul Calibur III have to be my two most favorite FG intros of all time.

 

[Boogybro]

Zone of the enders 2: Beyond the bounds

 

[Zomba13]

Reason the track from The YAWHG is in my post is because I watched some guys play through it earlier and heard it there and when I looked for the soundtrack on youtube it was the first in the playlist. Didn't know (or notice) there were other vocal tracks in the game and they are great too.

Poem (The YAWHG)
Shadows (The YAWHG)

 

[Star Falcon]

Zone of the enders 2: Beyond the bounds

That's another good one, haven't heard it for years.

 

[Wavering Radiant]

pretty much anything in:

-Bastion
-Transistor
-Metal Gear Solid (especially "Snake Eater" xD)
-NieR

and most recently: Drakengard 3
-Aethervox (reminds me of NieR :')
-Exhaustion (really nice as end-credits music)
-This Silence is Mine (love the toybox sound)

The fuck...?

RULES OF NATURE

 

[UltraGunner]

Anarchy Reigns. The whole damn soundtrack.

 

[Spwn]

I have a weird affection for Play For Keeps from Anarchy Reigns OST.
Also Three Minutes of Clapping from TWEWY.

 

[NateDog]

Metal Gear Solid: The Best is Yet to Come (hoooow has no-one mentioned this?)
Tales of Vesperia intro (Ring a Bell)
I really loved Ring a Bell especially coupled with that intro, and I normally hate music with lyrics from JRPGs.

 

[Melchiah]

A love suicide - Rule of Rose

This is what I came to post here as well.

Say
Where is my shame
When I call your name?
So please don't set me free
I'm as heavy as can be
I will do you harm
I will break my arm
I'm a victim of your charms

I want to be dead
When I'm in bed
I can be so mean
You can beat me
I would like to shame you
I would like to blame you
Just because of my love to you

And
Love itself is just as innocent as roses in May
I know nothing can drive it away
Though
Love itself is just as brief as a candle in the wind
But it's greedy just like sin

Alone but sane
I am a love suicide

'Cause
Love itself is just as brief as a candle in the wind
It is pure white just like sin

Alone but sane
I am a love suicide

'Cause
Love itself is just as innocent as roses in May
It is pure white just like sin

Love the lyrics.

 

[Aztechnology]

Granted it was just a trailer, but damn, does music make a trailer or what.

Under the shadow of the oak, it's just beautiful

 

[Holykael1]

The entire Nier OST
Metal Gear Rising
Other MGS vocal themes
FF vocal themes

 

[GCX]

"The Poet And The Muse" by Poets of the Fall

From Alan Wake. Amazing.

 

[Axass]

Possible spoilers in the videos.

Phantasy Star Online - Can Still See the Light - Epic piece, slow and calm, but at the same time very poweful.

Valkyria Chronicles - Succeeded Wish - Poetic, gives me watery eyes.

Z.O.E. II - Beyond the Bounds - As fast and upbeat as the game itself, fits it perfectly.

Soul Blade - The Edge of Soul - Sets the mood of the game in an excellent way, still one of the best intros ever.

Metal Gear Solid - Snake Eater - Awesome, gives you '70/'80 Bond vibes.

Super Smash Bros. Brawl - Main Theme - That latin chorus, very nice.

NiGHTS Journey of Dreams - Dreams Dreams (Will Version) - Dreamlike and refreshing.

Donkey Kong 64 - DK Rap - Funny and crazy intro.
Skullmonkeys - Little Bonus Room - Creepy as fuck.

Portal - Still Alive - One of those catchy songs you can't ever get out of your head.
Portal 2 - Want You Gone - Great follow-up to the amazing piece from the first game.
Portal 2 - Cara Mia Addio - Lyrical masterpiece, such feels.

Fragile Dreams - Hikari
Fragile Dreams - Tsuki no Nukumori - Both are very sad but absolutely beautiful songs.

Time Hollow - Theme Song - Nice ending to a nice game.

Kingdom Hearts - Simple and Clean - When coupled with the CG cutscene it's the best ending song ever, I love the way it started out of the blue.
Kingdom Hearts II - Sanctuary - Great intro, Utada's work in general is amazing by the way.

FFX - Suteki da ne
FFVIII - Eyes on Me - Great love songs.

FFX - Otherworld - Metal in my FF? Sure!
FFX-2 - Real Emotion - It got a lot of flak in the past, but I appreciate it for what it is, a nice j-pop song.
FFVIII - Fithos Lusec Wecos Vinosec - Dreadful in a good way.
FFXV - Somnus - Best thing to come out of FFXV so far, one of my favourite pieces ever in the series.

BONUS: Twitch Plays Pokémon The Song by Tai Reflections & Vulkain - Perfect fit for the original chaotic stream.

EDIT: Also I forgot TWEWY, everything about TWEWY's OST is good, though I dunno about listening to the songs outside of the game.

EDIT 2: FFVI - Opera Maria and Draco - They re-created a 4 tracks opera inside a game, how could one not be stunned by its beauty?

 

[RSB]

Honestly, I don't think I have an absolute favorite, but I see many great ones have already been mentioned. That's cool, and I'll add a couple, both from the same game:

Zone of the Enders - Kiss Me Sunlights

Zone of the Enders - Flowing Destiny

Also one from Silent Hill:

Silent Hill 4 - Cradle of Forest

So many great songs in the Silent Hill saga... Love it

 

[lewisgone]

FF XIII-2 - Crazy Chocobo

Only kind of joking

 

[Zengar]

Distant Worlds (Final Fantasy XI: Chains of Promathia) (From the Distant Worlds release)

Thank you for introducing me to this song. I LOVE it.

 

[Parsnip]

Castlevania SoTN - I am the Wind
....

Okay, seriously though. I hate most vocal songs, but some stand out as great.

Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance - A Stranger I Remain (Maniac Agenda Mix)
Metal Gear Solid - The Best is Yet to Come
Legend of Dragoon - If you Still Believe

 

[cm osi]

Lunar Luna's Boat Song

 

[Andrin]

The lack of Silent Hill songs in here saddens me.

Hometown

I Want Love

Waiting For You

One More Soul

Always On My Mind

And my personal favourite: Room of Angel

The music in the Silent Hill series is amazing, and the vocals by Mary Elizabeth McGlynn add this otherworldly feel to it.

 

[mclem]

Be warned: I like cheesy music. A lot. With that in mind:

There's a bunch of gems in the Metropolis Street Racer soundtrack:

Here's a playlist

Skeletons in my closet (The 7th Guest, quite a nice jazzy number)

Also, obligatory nomination for The Poet and the Muse from Alan Wake.

 

[elhav]

You were there- ICO

Buck bumble- Buck bumble

 

[snesfanboy]

that final song of Mass Effect 1, fucking rocks!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NcrDWAuyqtc

 

[eojoko]

FFVIII - Eyes on Me -

This is the first song I thought of. I like Faye Wong. And I like FF8.

 

[Serge84]

Opening movie in Soul Edge was my first CG I have seen in videogames. This song with these visuals was mindblowing.

 

[En-ou]

Kaze no ne (Sound of the Wind) - Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles

came to post this. amazing!

 

[Axass]

Holy shit how could I forget this!

FFVI - Opera Maria and Draco

Though the voices here aren't the ones the game featured at the time due to hardware limitations.

 

[Zomba13]

Holy shit how could I forget this!

FFVI - Opera Maria and Draco

Though the voices here aren't the ones the game featured at the time due to hardware limitations.

Ooh good shout. I really like this version: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xuK7sZrkDPM but don't know what album it's from or how to get it. Guy says it's from Dear Friends but when I look for it I see a track list that doesn't list it but did find the Japanese album To Dear Friends where it is on there but is sung in Japanese.

EDIT: And just like that after checking the track list on the FF wiki I see a link at the bottom to "More Friends - Music from Final Fantasy" and it's there and that version. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MU3Prg4pC-s&index=12&list=PL5F755E489728C862

 

[BuBBeR]

Metal Gear Rising - Stains of Time

Pretty much the entire OST for this game is amazing!

 

[Vlade]

Wow, this took too long to come up.

Edit:
Also that Dragon's Dogma title screen?

 

[Dr. Zoidberg]

Mega Man III Intro w/ Lyrics

Back in Time

Living in the City

Greatest soundtrack of all time.

Oh yeah, also It has to be this way from Metal Gear Rising is good.

 

[Max Knight]

I'm going to go with Impact's theme from Mystical Ninja Starring Goemon.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dRj7XVFd3Ic

 

[mcz117chief]

One of my favorite songs, period. Let alone in games.

Hell yeah, man. Portable Ops is seriously underrated and this song is probably the best in the whole series.

 

[TWILT]

The majority of Metal Gear Rising and The World Ends With You songs are my favs.

 

[Kriken]

It has to be this way Metal Gear Rising

Heck, basically every boss track in this game could be listed here

Also, Live and Learn from Sonic Adventure 2

 

[Toxi]

"The Poet And The Muse" by Poets of the Fall

From Alan Wake. Amazing.

Easily my favorite.

Spoiler

I still need to play Alan Wake.

 

[Holy Order Sol]

Anarchy Reigns. The whole damn soundtrack.

[Astrogavol]

My favorite one :

wario Land 4

http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=vQuK6nwq__E&list=PLF66A79E6B8451909

It was my first time hearing someone singing during gameplay.

And many of them in "wario ware something"

Let's add an exemple :

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YY4qcJmgSmE

This was my favorite song with lyrics in a Wario game: Dribble and Spitz theme in Warioware Inc.! I've always loved this song, I have no idea what the lyrics are saying though.
