What a beautiful melody, no modern Zelda music even remotely matches this songs quality. It's like the limitations of 16-bit sound forced some insane level of creativity that you simply do not see in modern games. Go Go Go Super Nintendo sound chipset FTW!
@eexot lol, you're a hipster. Kidding aside, I always felt that all of the Zelda games were equal in musical brilliance. That is, until Koji Kondo retired. The music suffered after that.
Whenever I hear this music I always think of the part right before you pull up the Master Sword, when all the animals run/jump/fly away from the path leading to it. =)
Why do people have to argue over whether Skyward Sword or A Link to the Past is the better game? They're both great. Not to mention you can't really compare them since one is 2D and the other is 3D.
Me and my dad agree, after 26 years gaming, this is our favorite VGM out of all the games we played (we were both avid gamers, we owned ALOT of things)
@fearowdrill First of all, you don't know shit. Skyward Sword is not close to reaching the top of the Zelda Franchise. Skyward Sword is by far the easiest Zelda game out for consoles. Even the gameboy games are more challenging.
If you're a pussy, which i assume you are, go play Skyward Sword. If you're a man and want to play the original game that has brought Zelda to where it is today , where you can't save several times in the dungeon, and a fairy telling you exactly what to do, play ALTTP
@haakondale so men play zelda a link to the past?? there all good your just as bad as he is arguing over which is better! who gives a shit enjoy the music isnt that why you came here??
@haakondale Obviously someone here who has not played skyward sword if you did you know it is quiet a challenging game and even more so in Hero Mode where you lose hearts twice as fast and hearts don't appear so you have to rely on potions and fairies if you ask me wind waker and twilight princess ranks up there as the easiest and they are still great games you shouldn't judge a game by graphics, difficulty or multiplayer and wtf a fairy doesn't tell you what to do in skyward sword
when i was really young, i put this song on a cassette tape and every time i went upstate NY with my family i'd listen to this as we drove by the forests
at first I thought the thieves would give me some rupys and weapons after they touched me...after a few seconds i realized he stealed me and I was like :"WTF?!" and used my boomerang to paralyze him
@JenkemToweringMidget Although I'm not saying Saria's Song is better. ALttP's Lost Woods is just as repetitive. It's 20 seconds long and just keeps repeating.
I do think it's better because it sounds more mysterious. Saria's Song sounds like you're dancing around in a field. The best lost woods theme is Sacred Grove though IMO.
That the genius in it if you ask me. The repetitive nature gets the melody stuck in your head easy. A creepy, but beautiful composition that perfectly fits this forest.
When me and my dad would play this we would always go exploring instead of going to the dungeons in order. I remember going to the forest after the 1st dungeon and finding the sword and trying to pull it out but couldn't. idk but back then it seemed like some mystical unattainable object and when I finally did pull the sword out I felt like I had actually earned it.
You know, they could have totally built up more to the Master Sword if the game directed you to it first before telling you "get the three pendants". After all, pulling out the sword was a very monumental moment in the game, wasn't it?
@GreenFloyd12 They'll probably be confusing at 1st but then (usually after you've at least been through the forest several times with or without playing through the game multiple times) you'll get the hang of the layout.
The 3 forests I probably had the hardest time with at 1st would have to be the Lost Woods in Ocarina of Time, the Woods of Mystery in Majora's Mask & the Mysterious Forest in Link's Awakening.
Because of that damn Raccoon, I got lost a lot. Then I sprinkled him with Magic.
@hikarunkun I know I wish the theme could have stayed even after you got the sword, but there was only fog b/c of the power that was inside the sword. But yeah I loved looking at the fog moving around!! :D I wish this theme could have been in all Zelda games!!
@TheOneTrueAnthemis Thought I was the only one who thought that. I would run in tears when ever one was spotted. They never died. I also thought the dungeon themes were horror too :p
@TheOneTrueAnthemis "Alright...just have to find the Master Sword." *spot thief* "Why hello, good chap, how are you this fine d..." "OUCH!" "FUCK, RUN!" got away safely "Finally, the Master Sword!" examine pedestal ...'It's written in an indecipherable language'... FFFFUUUUU
hahahah! i forgot about the fake master swords xD damn u could tell those were shitty just byu looking at them... all small in and dark... of course the first time i played i was like 8 so I was fooled by those cheap ass sowrds. stupid thieves stole my rupees too. how could u not kill them... your sword can kill 7 big dancing demons but can't slay a stupid thief? xD
epic song... i used to hang out in the woods just to continue hearing this melody because i liked it so much.. and then i had to leave when that bandit came by and jacked my ish..... lol
i would so love it, when nintendo puts in an alternative, more "modern" version of this into skywards sword...just for the sake of havingsome nostalgic memorys about the good old time
The forest in this game always gave me the creeps when I was young. Me and my brother and sister would freak out because of that thief in the woods Dx lol Good times
@TheEndlessWarlock ergh. everyone remembers seeing the robber for the first time and being like WTF? And for many, the robber was their first stalker.
