Best VGM 187 - Kingdom Hearts - Traverse Town

[IzanagiSMT]

This game is great and all the tracks from the ost .. but i dont know why i hated so much this track ..

[dakotaisgreat]

It's so nostalgic to listen to this song it's kind of depressing and painful. I wish life could always be as simple as it was when I was a little kid playing KH 1 for the first time :).

Ill never forget this game and i'll probably replay it when I am 50 or something and just cry my eyes out.

[RamenGames]

This song is embedded in mu childhood. I play it everytime I warm up on my saxophone.

[iamadogdemon]

@RamenGames If it wasn't a Saxophone, I would ask for the music

[ragnaroktomorro]

had a sleepover once when this came out. We fell asleep with this music playing so when we awoke, it was still on. god that was annoying.

[xMUSTEDx]

@ragnaroktomorro lol

[MrBaggins95]

Kingdom Hearts 1 had more exploration and thats why I liked it better than 2

[tommiboy500]

I never played this game, but the music and graphical style really remind me of proffesor Layton and the diabolical box.

[warmslurm]

Kingdom Hearts > Kingdom Hearts II

[DancingSword]

"I'm bored, Sora."

"Let's go downtown and mellow out to the smooth jazz."

"Cool."

[DemonMasterAnsem]

All I really remember was the Moogles, and the nearly impossible to reach treasures.

[trojan12kelley]

It just sounds like something that would be playing when you're walking around a new city, or even a small town

[tegolin]

I want to live with this song playing in my head.

[grimmace45]

Classic.This had the perfect blend of Horror/Humor and Disney/Fantasy characters. Sadly they overplayed their hand in the sequel.

[darkwolf1536]

ansem made 3 accounts.

[guitarmanbadass]

nooooostalgiaaaaaa!!!!!!!!!!!!­

[Secura784]

So many hours of listening to this song and I still love it.

[AwnkSocrates]

Two heartless who dislike this video .. :D Who next ..??

[Coldmilk51312]

When my first year of college is over, this summer is going to be all about re-living the memories of Kingdom Hearts and Final Fantasy 7 and 10...plus getting my car fixed.

I can't wait!

[skyring1]

@Coldmilk51312 that sounds amazing.

[megasoniczxx]

ya know I dont know why but for some reason after I saw the commercial of this game it felt connecting to me in some way so I rented it played it(got scared of the dark because of heartless for a while) but I enjoyed it the whole game felt like a dream though.

[JHouseweart]

Rut'theran Village, outside of Darnassus got this song for my World of Warcraft Soundtrack add-on. Just seemed fitting... and I wanted to put the song somewhere in the game, anyway.

[TheMrPyrotiger]

I JUST GOT THE BIGGEST CHILLS EVER HEARING THIS SONG AGAIN!!!

[jak1509]

Where did you get the pictures for this video?

[xkag3sh1n0b1x]

i now have a sudden urge to go replay the game... but ive already replayed it 3 times though! xD

[grandpajenkins1]

NOSTALGIA NOSTALGIA NOSTALGIA

[Davidryzel]

Which Kingdom Hearts is thisand for what system

[KairiDestiny1]

@Davidryzel KH 1 for PS2

[crystonix]

I have to admit, this place was really cool :)

in terms of the kingdom hearts series, what HAPPENED to this place??? did it get destroyed and somehow no one noticed?

Technically, sora only ever goes there for one game (seeing as com doesnt really count).

After that its not in any other kh games! :(

[Predalien1121]

@crystonix Traverse town was never destroyed. It was still as it was. However, it was a town for those who had lost there homes and when u beat the game, the worlds are returned. That means all of the residents of traverse town when back to their original homes. Which kinda meant Traverse town was deserted.

[DemonMasterAnsem]

First time playing: Looks good... Donald, Goofy, Pluto... OMG SQUALL. Yuffie... meh. Aerith? Weren't you dead?

[guesswho3010]

man kingdom hearts gives off a great feeling, epic days when i got this game for christmas

[sinituuke]

Despite my somewhat-of-hatred towards Kingdom Hearts series I think this theme is one of the best town themes I've ever heard.

And no, I just can't leave KH alone. I have to play them for my little sister who's still too lazy to play them herself. She wants me to buy Birth By Sleep next. -_-'

[TheHarmonixer]

This song is amazing. Very unique sounding song. It's happy, warm, and welcoming, but also with a tinge of sadness and nostalgia when the "bridge" of the song comes in. Perfectly balanced. I always feel welcome in traverse town when I hear this :).

[k0ffan]

This song has a warm feeling, i like it! ^^

[FinalFantasyLov3r124]

I'll always sing along with this theme :) It was so calming.

[RRhaegarr]

Love this song, really made the game greater.

[bigtallguy97]

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE SUPRA, as you're continuing your list, please add the Hollow Bastion theme :)

[TrevorCBelmont]

an unforgettable experience it reminds me of why I used to love disney movies like Lion King.

[calvinsora101]

I just loved being in Traverse Town. I literally felt like a citizen there. Am I alone in that?

[garfreeek]

@calvinsora101 definately not! maybe it was the hat store and the many friends you could visit there?

[konflict5206]

Traverse Town was like 'home base' and this music really made it feel that way.

[vfgjhj]

Traverse Town>Twilight Town

[SalasSnake]

Reminds me of Disneyland, which shouldnt be a surprise.

[azulichigo]

@SalasSnake Now if they only played this music at DisneyLand.....

[MrAgnost]

@azulichigo rofl!

[dx619hey]

this music gets annoying after awhile frankly that seems to happen a lot with the area music of KH, IMO

[obentozai]

OH HAI SORA.

[bushwhacker2k]

Hahaha, I guess there are some disney fans on here

[QuickstartBlazin]

They were always in Kingdom Hearts..

[takerukari]

This is my favorite out of Kingdom Hearts I, this has the similar feel that Lazy Afternoon has for KH II

[AkumaUchitoru]

I know. I can listen to either track, especially Lazy Afternoons, all day long. ^^

[Hennethelord]

Definitly my Fave

Awesome

[PigPillow]

Aaah, this is one of my absolute favourites :)

I could walk around Traverse Town for at least half an hour just enjoying this great song ^^

[Ovan95]

I wonder will they think of a KH3....maybe but you never know they already got BBS and 354/2 days (is that right?) if not its a mega killer to the KH fans.

[chrispen9]

there are too many kh fans out there for them to stop making it and Disney would want to squeeze as much as they can out of their franchises. It is also one of Square's major franchises.

[Arc13]

Not saying there is or isn't one just saying they need a third one considering the end to 2, them getting the letter in a bottle.

[justinfeldmann]

possibly the best song in the game

[spoonlessjoe98]

best best best!

[Zytri92]

Such a soothing song. This game was great. I missed this area in KH 2.

[KingdomHeartsWii]

this game pwns

b

by reading my channel name, i think u guys know wat i want

lol

[6monkey1]

What no Hallow Bastion!!! lol jk I like traverse town. Gotta start playing it again cuz i think KH3 is coming out in a year or so...

[Tymaca321]

1 time

THERE IS NO KH3 there are 3 diffrent games

Birth by sleep (for PSP)

354/2 days (for NDS)

KH coded (for cellphone)

[zanzibarfox]

and sometime later there will be KH3 for ps3. i'm pretty sure i read it somewhere.

[Tymaca321]

That was just a rumor now evryone believes

Its about 3 games Kh3 dont exist and will never exist its only three games

1 time again

birth by sleep (psp

Coded(mobile)

and 358/2 days (ds)

Kh 3 is just a rumor one or other noop said

[jalocin12345]

KH3 isn't a romour? It's called the keyblade wars and you will be playing as Ven I think it was (latin for earth?) watch the trailer.

[Tymaca321]

it sure is a rumour the trailer is the trailer for birth by sleep aka secret ending from kingdom hearts 2 FM kh 3 is a rumour believe it or not and BBS (birth by sleep)

is already out in japan kh3 is just somthing a kh geek comes up with

[jalocin12345]

I'm not talking about the secret ending from KH2. I got that one myself. I'm talking about the one where some evil bald guy with a beard is owning three keyblade warriors. The evil guy also seems to have an apprentice.

[Tymaca321]

no i am not talking about kh2 im talking about kh2 final mix its a game who is out only in japan i buyed it from ebay search on youtube ''secret ending KH2 fm''' and you see that guy. and that guy is xehanort and the 3 keyblade warriors are terra van and aqua from BBS the whole kh3 ideo is plain fake

[jalocin12345]

I see. I we were talking about the same trailer it seems. Didn't notice the 'birth by sleep' before you mentioned it

[Tymaca321]

yes we did but you have to help and ''save'' other people off the rumor

[Jordaannnnnnnnnnnnnn]

dude if KH3 doesnt come out that will be the stupidist idea they ever had

[Tymaca321]

kh 3 doesnt exist

there are 3 games

once again

birth by sleep (psp) (many people think this is a kh 3 trailer you know the old man and the three warriors aqua ven and terra)

coded (mobile) (just a sora donald goofy game etc.)

352/2 days (organisation XII game where you can play as them etc. by the way ds)

kh 3 is just a plain stupid idea

[Jordaannnnnnnnnnnnnn]

yeah know that kh1 and kh2 were the best selling in the series. there obviously doing what they did before when they made chain of memories for the GBA then KH2 came out trust me KH3 Will be here and it will be better then any faggot KH handheld game.

[Tymaca321]

KH3 doesnt exist so you may wait till you die

there are only 3 kh games no kh 3 is just a dumb idea some kh freak thought

i listed the games in my other comment

so wait till you die i wont stop you

but kh 3 never comes out

[Jordaannnnnnnnnnnnnn]

why are you saying this. you dont even know.

[Tymaca321]

yes i do ever check kh-vids

and birth by sleep is already realesed in japan. and you dont even know that kh 3 is coming out....

[Jordaannnnnnnnnnnnnn]

kh-vids isnt even ran by square enix dumb fuck they dont know shit

[Tymaca321]

yes they do they can also ask

and you even dont know if kh3 will come out

and yes kh-vids knows evrything on basic of kingdom hearts. you just dont know a thing and think you cool

[Jordaannnnnnnnnnnnnn]

i know the guy who created kh-vids you fucking idiot just stop talking.

[Tymaca321]

yeah yeah and i believe you (not) and i know bbs is out in japan cus im from japan.. i use a translator.

[Jordaannnnnnnnnnnnnn]

yeah his gt on xbox live is deathspank. cut your dick off oh wait its too small asain kid.

[Tymaca321]

so wow you got yourself an digital friend.

in real life its hard eh?

[Tymaca321]

and also im not asian my mother is blank so im also blank. noob

[nanhuazhenren]

haha you liar,your profile says you´re from the netherlands

[Tymaca321]

that was just a random country i picked. since i dont think people have to know that

BTW if its good BBS is going to be realesed in may

[garfreeek]

emm gozer hoe ken je het woord blank dan xD

maar je heb gelijk dat hoeven zij niet te weten = P

[Tymaca321]

moest tog wat verzinnen.

Dan nog alles gaat nu zo wat over BBS sinds 358/2 days al uit is op rom.

(k heb hem op me ds)

en ik wou ff dissusie openen. worden video's gezzelig van XD

[garfreeek]

is 358 al in het engels dan? daar moeten we toch nog op w8? maargoed int engels: worlds you looking forward too in bbs? any princesses that don't have had their own world yet? maybe we'l get to know something more about where kairi was born! lets sum up the new ones we'v seen all involved a princess so: cinderella: bbs snow white: bbs aurora: bbs alice: kh1 kairi:kh1 jasmine: kh1 belle (i'm thinking their going to show us the town she grew up in and the abduction to hollow bastion!

[Tymaca321]

kan je met een Rom doen.

snow white is kinda a low chance. mainly cus it

BBS would have much older players. but then that D*@!m pooh bear showed up in kh2

only kairi is a tiny chance. since she doesnt even Exist then...... Alice is already comfirmed.

and Belle no way. i bet 99% thats it just the same old belle and beast castle. there not so growing up about belle

[garfreeek]

interesting ^_^

do they know how many years it's set before kh1?

[Tymaca321]

thought around 10 or 100 Forgot it XD

[Tymaca321]

Yet i fote for 10.

its hardly possibe that in kh2 FM terra will be around 110 XD

[garfreeek]

i thought i saw a few pictures of ansem so 100 would a bit too much yhea ^_^

[Tymaca321]

my guess

that was not ansem.

that was Xehanort

[dstrong712]

square enix + disney = great music...period.

[Clymaxx]

Now this is a classic track. This is Kingdom Hearts, right here.

[madamminalost]

Traverse town.... one of the best worlds and one of the best music...

[sallyed66]

This is the best music ever in a game. It really captures the mood of what is going on in the game. Man video games have come a long way in the last 20 years.

[dx619hey]

@sallyed66 I really fail to see how this is a revolutionary piece of video game music. Care to explain?

[sallyed66]

@dx619hey

I didn't say it was a "revolutionary piece of video game music." I think it's great music that captures the emotional feel of the game. The fact that video games have come from simple two tone animation of a gun shooting aliens to deep stories with developed characters (like Kingdom Hearts) is revolutionary.

Kingdom Hearts is a video game that tells a great story that revolves around kids growing up. This captures that and the unknown adventure the kids are setting out on...

[dx619hey]

@sallyed66 Oh, well I guess the way I read your wording, it sounded like you meant video games have come a long way, in terms of video game music and capturing mood, which is what I disagreed with. But that's not what you meant, so my bad.

I can see what you mean by that interpretation, but I don't know if bias comes into play with thinking it captures that theme of an unknown adventure. I think it definitely is a good piece that captures that feel of "beginning/hub town" though

[FreeZe6422]

@sallyed66 Best music ever? I don't really like it, but that's probaly because I don't know it. But I heard much better music in games. For example search ''Tales of Symphonia: A Snow Light''.

[shiriapplebyfan23]

noooooooooo i wanna play this now

[SwordSamuraiWhisper6]

This song makes me sad. My brother crashed our PS2 before we could finish the game.

I haven't played KH in a year...it used to be so much fun...

And oh yeah, this and Hollow Bastion has the best music.

[wiicow]

fire on the door, lighting on the wire outside the statue, ring the bell to change the fountain.

now what other secrets were their, yes the moogles were cool.

[BlueNinjaKoopa]

I like this song too. Very soothing.

[erzu17]

this song makes me sad TT-TT

[PingGuerrero]

nice music.. I love those sceneries. cool video!

[Malphas87]

Music fits so well with the town.

[Julienfun]

good game! the first battle music of the traverse town is good too

[ComboBlaze]

Fuck yeah this is the best one on KH

[MailboxCrayon]

I BELIEVE IT'S AN OBOE???

:)

[JigglyPuffMike]

It's a saxophone you retards.

[snazzysammi87]

No, Saxophones have more of a "raspiness" to it, which this song lacks. It's definitely a type of clarinet.

[Coldmilk51312]

I'm not challenging your belief because I agree with you but the sound does almost resemble a soprano saxophone. It's just my theory, tone qualities can change with the type of manufacture, reed and mouthpiece set-up, and the player, but I'm convinced it's a clarinet.....that sounds perfect.

[MidnightSorceress924]

ah, i love this song. its so.....Disney, but in a good way. and to the brilliant sound of a clarinet. i highly doubt any other instrument could pull this off.

[N64SMASHBROS]

I feel empty inside everytime i hear this music

[Coldmilk51312]

Hmm, sounds like a very good smooth player on a regular clarinet, but it doesn't sound like one? There are different types of clarinets out there unless I've never heard a very soft, smooth, and heh, lovely sounding clarinet before. Any musician's out there know if it's *just* a clarinet or another type of it?

[AnimeFan19]

omg such good games <3

[MisterDominoX]

This song is easy to whistle, and it's catchy. A lethal combination!

[CleverDjembe]

Yeah, and the sweet tone of the clarinet.. aaahhh ^_^

[Omegashrimp9]

KH2 had better Battle music, but KH had better town music.

[amari17]

nostalgia............love this song, ive played this game with my bros 3 years ago, brilliant memories

[NerevarsReturn]

oh, this song brings back such good memories. such soothing music...

thanks for reminding me of it!

[scir91]

this is peaceful calming music. one of my fav's!

[devilmaycloud]

i expected to much from Kingdom Hearts

i expected the org 13 to be massively strong and cool

i also expected to much from ff12 which sucked

[Soilworkcob]

FF12 was awesome. I feel sorry for you. :/

[Sephiko]

It was, but some people have different tastes in games...

[NeoTStyle]

But it's story lacked, i wasn't interesting, but SE learns of their faults.

[theinsanething]

No it wasn't. <_<

[shishikyuu]

love that one :3

[Sephiko]

You must be a gypsy or something, because this was stuck in my head lately (yesterday).

[grimmace45]

Yay! now, on to more painful managerial accounting....

[Sephiko]

I'm learning accounting right now.

I'm doing "posting" without the use of computers. Dreadful stuff.

[Babybahamut]

This is one of those songs that gets in your head and stays there for days afterwards.

[SupraDarky]

Gotta agree with that. :)

[snazzysammi87]

I definitely agree, and now that I've listened to it today, it'll be stuck in my head for a while, lol.

[OmnipotentO]

aw... i didnt really like this song much...

[karmierez]

nice pick that was a relly good town music best for KH

by the way can upload twilight town from KH2?
