Far Off Promise: Chrono Trigger Music

[vexis58]

@JoshCube2: My husband and I played an acoustic guitar rendition of this song (with To Good Friends after, it's a good combo) at our own wedding. There were only a couple of people in the audience who recognized where it was from, and the rest just thought it was a beautiful song on its own and had no idea it was from a game until I mentioned it to them.

[JoshCube2]

I should make this song the wedding song for my fiance and I.

[MyleneDeidara]

Chrono Memories... :(

[Learii]

@MyleneDeidara this song make me cry =(

btw if you have a ps3 this game on PSN now

[MyleneDeidara]

@Learii Nintendo DS :D i have it for DS :D

[Learii]

@MyleneDeidara lol ok

[monkeyboy409]

This song shall be one of the many slower Chrono Trigger songs played at my funeral.

[z4rkenny]

this is the only song on that game i couldnt stand lol

[CaptainPajamies]

@z4rkenny How can you not like it? :(

[z4rkenny]

@CaptainPajamies ok i still like it its just my least fav song from ct :P

[Starfighter15]

when i was up on Death Peak with Marle and Frog standing there with Crono, that moment reminded of my first love that i lost in childhood, still love her even though around 10 years have passed and my memory about her has been sealed away.

there hasn't been a game like Chrono Trigger that touched me in this manner.

wonder how she's doing.

[adam99x2004]

sounds like something from Xenogears as well. aren't they the same composer?

[Arcthelad56]

@adam99x2004 Why yes they are! Yasunori Mitsuda was the composer for both of those games.

[moguy200979]

Woot!

[BlahArmy]

this sound like a begginning and an end at the same time its like the summary of a life

[MissMidgie10]

does anyone know where i can get a copy of this song? it's my favorite from the game, but i cannot find it anywhere.

[MettanAtem]

I once somehow fought Spekkio when this song was still playing.

IT WAS EPIC.

[MrsLadyashe]

td vez q ouço ela me daaa m sooonooo

maas tbm me faaaz choraaa

[Dragonflo7777]

People....the friends is lifes most beautifull thing....I care for my friends with the price of my life....tho they dont know

[austinpawl]

this is the type of song that will make you relize how short life really is

[perfectagito]

this song makes me a little sad . it reminds me of a dear friend that i just lost and never see it again:'(

[FusilliJerry89]

this reminds me of one of the songs from xenogears

[Angel16Cordobes]

muy lindo el tema....

es algo que me hemosiona...

pensando en como es el juego....

queda re copado...

[dac91]

damn, i could play this for my child, when i have one XD

[Sparemeurwisdom]

FF3 & ChronoTrigger is when SE realized what they had

[majinarthas]

dam this brings back memorys. epic game an sound track 5 stars!!

[RaustBD]

*SPOILER ALERT*

When I hear this song, I imagine a song about crono's last thoughts as he is consumed by lavos's laser:

No, please, don't cry for me,

I loved it whenever you smiled,

I loved it the day I met you

and now I still do

so i beg you, don't cry,

Even though I will die

I won't fade from the infinite stream of time.

[deibee]

I don't know what made me cry more, Marle's Theme or your words for it. :grabs a tissue:

[piromaniac9999]

This song plays when you warp to lavos with the epoch when you get the end credit.

Man this song always makes me sad,its like saying goodbye thank you for coming the game is over but you enjoyed it.

[piromaniac9999]

But tis song is played after you beat lavos by going to the future with the epoch.

[iMeta4]

Great song. =)

[FFVIIIFanatic]

doesn't this song also play if you die?

[piromaniac9999]

Nope,it plays if you use the epoch to warp to lavos and beat lavos and after the credits of the end this song plays.

[FFVIIIFanatic]

I'm not doubting that it plays at that time, but I could have SWORN this song plays when you die as well as the time you mentioned...

[piromaniac9999]

@FFVIIIFanatic

There are 2 versions,so maybe one is when chrono dies.

[darkjumpy]

I used to stay awake at night just thinking about how beautiful this game was. Sometimes I still do.

[Ramez1799]

True that...me too...reminds me of when I was younger with no care in the world. Just school and playing games with my friends.

[Perv250]

This song is sad. I'm 8th Grade, going to High School, and seeing how I'm gonna miss all my friends, this really makes me sad. :(

[xXSyLoXx]

omfg...

[gheldon]

This song is good, but I think the music box song from Xenogears, "Faraway Promise" is even better (do a search for that and it'll be the first result). It has a similar tone. Go figure, since Xenogears was a Square game as well.

To anyone who likes this song and this game, I'd highly recommend checking out "Faraway Promise" and the game it comes from, Xenogears. Some people say they don't make games like they used to. I think Xenogears was the last great game of its kind.

[VillainousOperative]

Now I know what beauty means.

[hellothereimasian]

its amazing how a game with 8 bit capabilities out shines most mainstream music, I loved this game when I was a child, I even bought a playstation to play it again.

[subeards]

Ain't SNES 16 bit?

[jon21c]

its 32 bit

[DoomPhoenix13]

This is another great theme, too bad the DS version messed up the almost music box sound that this version seemed to have. It really is fitting, especially between the reuniting after crono's revival.. and saving the link of generations from being broken.

[modenkid]

I remember the time when I could not a single word from the game since I was playing Japanese version of it. I loved it and loved it even then, but I studied Japanese to understand the basic story of the game. It was amazing. Thank you

[PKMNEmerald]

Someone needs to make one of those music boxes and make this a theme.

It'd be called the little box o' win.

[Revilo227]

LOL

[ZeroSaber]

You've just won the Chrono Trigger side of internet, sir.

Here's your box o' win.

[Kynitt]

If I had a music box that played this I'd cry tears of joy

If you leave it unplayed for a while then a red dot falls into the picture on the side...

[Falkirion]

Completely agree. If I ever bought a music box for my kids I'd want it to play this.

[dryst420]

music box or not, i AM gonna play this song once i get a kid and he/she goes to sleep

[IsilionNELE]

@dryst420 you should play the Lavos final fight music instead

[imGenji]

@dryst420 me2!

[EnglishTurtle]

This is so similar to "Epilouge to Good friends."

[EnglishTurtle]

The whole Chrono Trigger game reminds me of a best friend of mine that moved away.

This music reminds me of him. If only I could find you again Rendell, my best friend.

[1dk11]

@EnglishTurtle facebook brah, if you remember his full name search him up.

[smokecloud7]

@EnglishTurtle :'( I know exactly how you feel, i have a friend which i feel i will never find again(related to this song) never know its a small world after all.....

[smokecloud7]

@EnglishTurtle :'( I know exactly how you feel, i have a friend which i feel i will never find again(related to this game) never know its a small world after all.....

[crazypuppypoker]

such a cute song...but with a touch of sadness...=(

why does the most spunky, rebellious character get the depressing lullaby for the theme song? o_0

[Arc13]

It's suppossed to be romantic and sad, used for both. And it fits both well. It's technically according to the soundtrack supposed to be the theme for Crono X Marle.

[SecretDestiny16x21]

Ahhhhh I Remember This Very Well...

hahaha i have the ROM

hahahahaha

Greetings.

[pyrix]

Oh yeah well I have the DS game, suck on that!

[SecretDestiny16x21]

hahahaha all rigth next generation kid XD

[darkfantasy8]

I wonder if he even knows about Magus yet lol I think it's hilarious seeing these nextgen kids all bent up when they find out spoilers about games we played decades ago :)

[SecretDestiny16x21]

o.o

ok...

[SecretDestiny16x21]

hahaha well

its not the same...

joke

greetings XDXD

Chrono Trigger foevar!

[Flumpansamonga]

Aw crap, now I'm going to cry again!

[mlor023]

Aw i love this song x]

[playerbam90]

isn't this marle's theme too?

[Rubberman202]

Yeah, it is.

[MrSoprano0125]

.......I feel sleepy.......

[NekoNoBaka13]

I want my teddy...

[zatch913]

I'm so happy! Even though we'd just met, I knew you'd come for me, constantlimit!

[BlackopsJackal]

that was love man!! Who would let a hottie like her get away anyway?

[zatch913]

Yeah... Marle was pretty sweet.  I just felt like quoting her. Y'know, the scene from the castle when they nearly mess up the time stream?

[Flumpansamonga]

Liquid, salty nostalgia is pouring from my eyes...

[yuumeko]

...sperm comes from your eyes?

[Flumpansamonga]

Nononono. Sperm comes from my penis B-)

[Chumandoo3]

Hehehehehe...
