I was at a renaissance festival, and they had a medieval style tournament, and when the knight defeated the dark lord, they played an orchestrated version of this song when it ended. I was the only one who recognized it.
Oh this takes me back, back to the days of playing classic Final Fantasy games. There is just something timeless about them. As a sidenote,I am creating novelisations of all the Final Fantasy stories. Come check them out and tell me what you think.
This music is perhaps the most inspiring of all of the Final Fantasy compositions done by Nobuo Uematsue. I've been playing Final Fantasy since I was just a young boy of three, and believe me when I say this song still makes me cry with pride and admiration. AbsoluteZero255, I agree with you most heartily: this song IS, Final Fantasy!
Just started playing Final Fantasy I for the first time - just exploring Corneria City and buying stuff for my party (and talking to the king ofcourse - my first quest!) The graphics may be outdated and from before my time, but it doesn't diminish ANYTHING. It still has that classic Final Fantasy feel to it.
The problem with newer final fantasy games is that it is lacking the resemblence to the older games that lead to the creation of them. The series has changed so much from then to what it is now. When I look at a newer Final Fantasy game, this theme doesn't fit anywhere, where as in the older ones it fits perfectly. If only Square Enix would return to its roots.
And so their quest began. As the four Warrior of Light, they felt overwhelmed by the great task destiny had placed before them. They did not even know the true significance of the four crystals they held in their hands... The crystals that once, long ago, held a light that shone so brilliantly. The time for their journey had come. The time to cast off the veil of darkness and bring the world once more into light...
One day i just said never mind my mp3 player and brought my ds and dawn of souls and listened to the sound track your given after beating the game instead!
@kotteb I noticed it and it made me smile. What made me cry is when you get the cut scene on when your going to Luca for your 1st time the music that is in the background is the same music that plays at the beginning of I Wanna Be Your Canary in FF9.
no matter how good the games may be after this. THIS WILL ALWAYS BE MY FAVORITE FINAL FANTASY! It's so epic listen to that tune, it the melody of four true heros.
it makes me feel proud to be a gamer to all final fantasy fan's.. i take my hat off for you... and to square enix THANKYOU! for a truly awsome game series..
when all hope seems lost, a glimmer of light will shine. the world will once again have hope in their hearts. and so, it shall begin again. i just had to say that because this song is the beginning of something, but the beginning of something again. when people in the future think of this game, they will again realize, after having forgotten, how good this game was, is, and forever will be.

Once again we're hurled into darkness and great upheaval....
Those who can enlist, let's unite and we'll fight together...
We must save the crystals or orbs or the moon whatever....
Come let's fly, we'll sail where the wind may take us through the starry sky...
Cause apparently back the they had ships that could do that...
