@mario4ever1000 You are correct, it's not from PvZ... it is an original song that was created specifically for the album ^_^ Most of the songs on the album are new as well.

@SamuelWinters

But even saying all that, I will always appreciate the breadth and scope of the work Shimomura did on Kingdom Hearts...what an undertaking it must've been to write that.
