We all love music here at OX towers, but some video game music is just so epic, cool, heart-wrenching or beautiful in its simplicity, that they really struck a...*chord* with us... ahem... Here, then, are those musical moments that make us stop and go "whoa..." whenever we hear them. 🎵🎶
Mike you should check out the band Sunset Neon. You'd like it a lot.
I could listen to Bonetrousle 24/7
Lbp 2 and destiny oh when you shadow shot oryx truogh the chest with the music in the background for blood is now nothing but sdrenalin
Some of parts of this is super loud and then super quiet... so yeah... Couldnt finish it on my tv where I couldnt control the volume quickly.
Halo music as a whole. but the opening song is best
“An electric Guitarist is running at you” that is the most accurate description i have ever heard i love it!
That "guitarist" is Steve Vai
Jane really nailed describing music with visuals that have feeling. I often see visuals when I listen to music, so this calm ocean with deep and ancient life, meanwhile running from behind the horizon with crazed eyes and high energy comes this punk, metal, spikes wearing guitarist to ADD to the splendor of that ocean in their own unique way. Just outstanding! Thank you Jane!
When Undertale came out, I didn't really get the hype. I finally played it about a month ago, while university work and depression were cleverly teaming up to crush me; when I got to the mirror in Asgore's home I cracked and cried for the first time in months (and only the second time since the day my dad died). Now, like many others, I will always have a place in my heart for Undertale.
I just gonna say: cry. really it is ok and sometimes helps
have a nice day
thane death fucked me up
coincided with mom dying slowly of alcohol induced liver cirrhosis so I really wasn't in a good place tbh..
but I still have a grudge against bioware. I replayed all games just to have kirrahe take his spot and they could have at least given me his a pic of him looking up from a bed with hanar all cybery.
and the music makes me sad
a
Can i play it on pc?
This one needs a heart emoticon.
@@arndnaj ❤️
"Despite everything, it's still you" gives me chills. And the subversion on that throughout the playthroughs are so incredible
I actually got that text as a tattoo! It meant that much to me.
I keep coming back to this video and It's sequel, not only because I love all of the music in them, but there's just something about how passionately they explain why they like all the music so much, that's just really nice to watch.
I'd watch hundreds of these videos lol
this is compersion. It's what drives a healthy society.
I really love how Luke is breaking down and passionately explaining his favourite parts of the Undertale music at the end.
Why did you spoil it
@@olgacuervo4305 Why'd you read the comments before watching the video?
@@olgacuervo4305 It's in the thumbnail
Agreed, though I'm surprised he didn't mention how it relates to the songs Home and Asriel's Theme. That, to me, is a huge part of what makes it so impactful
@@thescholarsjourney661 thats cool and all but hotline Miami 2 ost slaps
20:45 Sorry Jane but the electric guitarist isn't running at you from the horizon. He's knee sliding towards you from the horizon.
I'm picturing a "mad max: fury Road" type scenario
I pictured Lancelot's charge from Monty Python and the Holy grail lol
Picturing Eddie from Brutal Legend.
@@Simon-lt6fe Definitely. The Doof Warrior on his rig, playing the guitar while shooting flames out. The drummers smashing out the beat behind him.
I'm sure she's awestruck upon realizing that. In a good way.
“It is a good life we lead brother.”
“The best, may it never change.”
“And may it never change us.”
*sings* f o r e s h a d o w i n g!!!!
All the ezio games are the best in the series
ah poor Desmond. They did him dirty. Along with the entire concept.
@@nicememes7570 preach!!
Mike explaining why Splash Wave is the proper Out Run song and how Magical Sound Shower is the wrong song is the 90s big brother energy I’m here for
So... Is no one gonna mention the nostalgic soundtrack of Minecraft?
I mean, come on, Sweden!
Wet hands.
@@PersonWhoExists50306 My hands are made of glasses of water.

Mmm Long Elevator
Washing machine sounds 👌
@@Ryuneko_Gaming hopes and dreams is the best
That is a good point.

I want to see a breakdown of the contrasting feels of music in Portal and Portal 2
Portal very much gave that cold, clinical vibe, and so so lonely
Portal 2 felt more "alive" almost. More dynamic? The world around you is much more active. There are more variables at play, the facility reveals a chaotic side no longer concealed by crisp, clean panels. And parts of the track emphasize how vast Aperture is.
Awesome game, amazing soundtrack
Yes I downloaded the soundtrack. It's awesome. I like how the music changes depending on what you interact with too.
And how about the turret song at the end?? That totally blew my mind😆
Almost anything from hollow knight, every theme had this sort of empty, sad feeling to it. Every song has a feeling of lost greatness. Oh yeah the Grimm troupe has a ton of cool tracks
Don't forget the Mantis Lords. That shit slapped.
@@l0sts0ul72 hell yea it did
@@wenolongerhavebagels7466 honorable mention goes to hotline Miami
I could sit on benches and just listen. Especially the one with the rain outside the window
NKG hit hard
Someone says "Megalovania", and everyone sings it...
Edit: god, this comment came out a year ago, yet it has so many likes and comments, what.
i love the 8 bit audio parts
Yeah, the music from Undertale is sooooooooo good...
The Sans fight was hell.
_WAS_ hell.
Now I'm stuck on Undyne the Undying
@@bigbucksspender Yeah, Spear of Justice is the BEST!
@Tyler Airlie is that supposed to be the default dance or megalovania?
That scene in Dragon Age inquisition when all the survivors join together in singing the main theme is just.....perfect.
Oh, yes that's a wonderful theme. Also the sad Elven song Leliana sings at camp in DAO after you've dealt with the Dalish elves.
The dawn will come, I've got it on my phone and sing along Mother Girselle
this came to mind as well!
yes!!! when i first heard it i got chills and it was so moving!!! the only downside to me now is that that cutscene is unskippable, so on your 10th playthough you wish for death when you have to sit through it - kinda loses the power it had, but i still think it's an incredible song
Oh yes! There's that one short bit when Cullen sings along, and you notice that he's got the best voice ever and now you want to hear more of him singing it but you never will... frustrating yet absolutely amazing! :D
One Winged Angel in FF7 during the fight with Sephiroth made me extra anxious as he descended for the battle...awesome song
Yeah, but the music from Red XIII's village is my jam.
When he brought up the Hyrule Feild theme and Undertale, I felt it deep in my heart
The theme from Dragon Age: Origins is an amazing piece. Start off with beautiful elven(?) vocals, interrupted by the brass and drums of a darkspawn horde. The Grey Wardens arrive, pushing back the horde, but at the end of the song the threat still looms.
Dragon Age: Inquistion also did a great job with "The Dawn Will Come." I mean come on, who doesn't get chills when the entire Inquisiton and its leaders start singing to you?
Ooooh, or the song Leliana sings at camp after...the elves mission..I think?
Or the choir song when you leave for Skyforge (probably wrong) in Inquisition
Oh you already said Dawn Will Come xD I have chills just thinking about it
Dragon Age Origins music, in addition to the theme, was especially good because it made me feel exactly how I needed during different quests, like in the mage’s tower. About came out of my skin as the music was playing those haunting notes and the demons and abominations were running at me.
Such a good call, these were both excellent.
DA Inquisition: Dawn Will Come is easily one of my favourites. After the Haven attack when they're all arguing and it starts with one voice and ends with them all. Chills.
Me: **Hears Undyne's theme at **22:39**** **goes dancing to the beat of the music and goes to comment down what I did**
Lol
Not just that all of them
I legit went back to listen closer
I hate u
@@oof5494 Why hate me?
It's so lovely seeing Luke feeling the music. I'm not as into that song as he is but I appreciate it just bc of his precious reaction :D
I love this mind-picture of a guitarist sprinting at me playing the Halo theme on the electric guitar. Thank you, Jane!
Same here
Mass Effect 3 Leaving Earth gives me chills Everytime I hear it. The massive horns simulating the reapers.... Man.
I was learning to drive around the same time I finished the mass effect trilogy. I had to make a playlist specifically without that song because, after weeks of almost non-stop playing to beat ME3 before I had to go to a summer camp- hearing the reaper horns consistently made me jump and swerve the car for about a month afterward.
I was scouring the comments for this because I knew I couldn't be the only person thinking of Leaving Earth. It's just a somber piano that gets ripped apart by the brass, much like all the hard work and preparation that Shepard tried to accomplish in the first two games
Seriously how is 'Leaving Earth' not on this list. When the music begins, Shepherd (and therefore the player) is leaving the planet of their birth in the throws of its destruction. it is hard to imagine a dry eye after experiencing that. Hopefully most people will never know the heart break of living though the destruction of their home through war or disaster, but this piece of music will make sure you have a pretty good idea what it feels like.
Every time that reaper blows up the ship with the kid on it 😭😭
Literally gonna say this one! It's so emotional and I love it
ELLEN STOP I STILL HAVEN'T GOTTEN OVER EZIO'S FAMILY
Killing uberto was so enjoyable!
@@AbsoluteGeezer12 I'M STILL HERE! ME! EZIO! EZIO AUDITORE!
Mine is "Simple and Clean" form Kingdom Hearts
When I had my first child, my husband played us the Undertale theme as a lullaby for her. To this day I can't listen to it without tearing up now.
My favorite music moment is in the opening mission of mass effect 3, when Shepard is fleeing from Earth as the reapers destroy it. The music that comes with the reapers is all sound, then suddenly punctured by the loud horns. Just makes you really feel the hopelessness and loss that comes with that whole game (the song is called "leaving earth")
Yes, the correct answer is Leaving Earth from Mass Effect 3. Max Littlewood, you've won the comments.
I was going to say the suicide mission music from Mass Effect 2, but yeah, I think leaving Earth wins by a hair.
Almost perfect choice ;) My favourite is Suicide Mission from ME2 - everything about that piece is precisely tuned into the tension and terror of the endgame.
@bye Felicia @Gerardo Berrelleza Yeah suicide mission was a close second for me, along with "a farewell once and into the inevitable" from the end of the citadel dlc
This is my second choice after M4 from the end of Mass Effect 1
Mass effect 3: Leaving earth. Brings to mind watching your planet burn, watching a young boy die before your eyes and knowing you can't do anything about it. Truly captures the horror of the Reapers as they wipe aside Earth's military in minutes.
I still get get water in my eyes just thinking about it......
yes!!! and an end once and for all, they both transport me back to when i first played and i get emotional all these years later
leaving earth is touching but I would go ME:2 suicide mission for my favorite
Oh yeah! That one and I was lost without you! Perfect dramatic space opera
I love the Fleets Arrive. After the roller coaster of the rest of the music, it's a case of 'Now we fighting back'.
Here again because oxbox Jane said this was her favorite Oxtra video of all time after the most recent oxbox video. It really is one of the best oxtra
Yup I figured I would be rude not to watch this one again when Jane suggested it herself
I get lots of feels when I hear Kou Ohtani’s “The Farthest Land” in Shadow of the Colossus. The song plays when you idle in the start menu and then it shows Agro the horse frolicking through the games map. It’s awesome and makes my heart feel lighter and heavier at the same time. The beautiful Music and the beautiful horse are the perfect pair.
Undertale from Undertale = WHERE DID ALL THESE TEARS COME FROM!?!?!?
Satan I just got chills down my spine. This music is so soothing, so amazing.
@@intless93 same. Its so beautiful.
Really true
But better yet memory
Where are tears come from!!
"Hears Undertale and starts crying"
+After all this time?
-ALWAYS
What’s better, Undertale or Harry Potter?
@@adragonprobably1652 your opinion
Do I get a say on this?
Me too
I really appretice they put UNDERTALE there, insteady of Megalovania.
Fleeting Dream from Final Fantasy X always has such a big big place in my heart. It's one of those pieces of music that plays as great ambience alone, but in the context of when it is used in the game it just kicks in your chest but marches you forward, making it really fitting for what the characters are going through - and you alongside them. It's always been my "I need to fix this... somehow" music.
No Final Fantasy? I could make a whole list of music where my mind was blown by the music of these games... Good job of making me tear up because of Undertale though.
"Ezio's family" really makes my day...really miss those days when I used to play AC2 series.
Even more the remake they did for the game in assassins creed revelations.
You know when ezio found the history of altair or something like that.
(I can't remember completelly. It's been sooo many years since I played the ezio saga last time.. But it's just edged into my mind)
I know I'm like a year late, but the entire xenogears soundtrack, both in the game versions and the soundtrack that was released with it, we're extremely well done and emotional.
missed it? i finished ac2 for the first time last night
For some reason, i thought that AC2 stood for animal crossing two, even after watching the assassin's creed part of the video
@@LazyTurtle921 ... Bruh...
Streets of Whiterun- Skyrim. Music does a lot to me, and I frequently use it to put myself in a certain headspace. But nothing, _nothing_ sounds better to me than the Streets of Whiterun. I was that kid who would put on random video games to just sit in a zone and listen to the music (before the age of youtube), and I found myself doing that in Whiterun again. I just turned Skyrim on, intent on playing some, loaded into Whiterun and then... managed to do what I was putting off, with Whiterun's theme in the background. It's the sound of your family greeting you after a long day working. It's the sound of your partner there on the couch, next to you in front of the fire. It's the sound of a morning when you wake naturally, sunbeams floating without a care in through your windows. It's the sound of a warm hearth in the cold winter. It's the sound of safety, peace and *home.* It's the sound of the most important thing in the world, and what you'll go to the ends of Nirn, and beyond, to protect.
For me, one of my favourite pieces of game music is Aeris's Theme from FFVII. It's an amazing piece of work. Hits you right in the feels when you realise the theme is basically a death theme for one of the sweetest and most loving characters in the game. 😭
Any of the Elder Scrolls themes, but especially Nerevear Rising from Morrowind brings a year to my eye every time! (And Jane, the Mjollnir mix is definitely awesome and very metal 🤘
Not to mention that the melody from Nerevar Rising ended up becoming an unmistakable musical theme for the later Elder Scrolls titles (Oblivion, Skyrim) -- plus the fan / mod community for TES have further cemented the iconic status of Nerevar Rising thru multiple tribute covers & musical reimaginings (my personal favorite is "The Elder Scrolls" by Jon "Bosa" Babbs from the "Morrowind Music Overdose" series).
Undertales Music in general is insanely good in my opinion. My favourite Song is Hopes and Dreams. I also love the many different versions of Asriels Theme (wich is also used in hopes and dreams)
Florian Piko-Mager
*HOPES & DREAMS INTENSIFIES*
I know Megalovania may be just memed to shit and oversaturated at this point but it really is the best song in the soundtrack imo
Oh, Your Best Nightmare is my favorite. I personally don't care for Genocide Route songs, excepting Battle Against A True Hero. (Don't kill me)
Chara: my smile is red =)
The dust is gray
I slayed all my friends
Now it's time to earse
NOW HOLD ON! TO THE DREAMS, YOU CREATED FOR A HAPPY LIFE! ITS ALRIGHT, ALL THE THINGS WE SOUGHT FOR SO LONG WILL ALL BE WORTH THIS FIGHT!
Halo and Undertale, absolutely, but WHY NO CASTLEVANIA?? Especially Symphony of the night.
Because the music isnt mind blowing. It's meant to be self aware and comedic. Camp to the extreme. Amazing but not mindblowing
@@nathanielhaven3453 Nah Bloody tears is fucking awesome, especially the Dawn of sorrow version.
@@jinkisaragi874 okay I'll give you that one
Jin kisaragi Bloody tears was what I played when I heard a castlevania collection was real
Yo but what about Halo 3 ODST?
“Oh wow, this song sounds so calm, tranquil, and peaceful.”
*watches character punt a chicken”
"You are not alone" Final fantasy IX gets me welling up with tears every time I hear it.
17:40 "you have your beautiful homestead" *kicks chicken for no reason*
Reahn Heflen I was looking for this comment
(You see a potion in the windowsill) get the reference
*_Y E E T !_*
I know it's not technically OST but so many songs from Fallout: New Vegas. Big Iron and Jingle Jangle Jingle immediately make me feel like a badass post-apocalyptic cowboy.
R. Yesssss like I’ll be playing shooting some cannibals or some shit going hell yeah my spurs go jingle jangle
I'm glad Andy tried his best to show respect to the Streets of Rage II sound track. Every level was such a banger.
POV: Joe Satriani is running at you full speed down a hill with an electric guitar, suddenly you get distracted, by another guitarist running down a different hill from the other side, it's Steve Vai!
The biggest musical moment for me in gaming was the "leaving earth" scene at the start of Mass Effect 3.
You've had two full games and countless hours leading up to this exact moment, and theres this beautiful piano peice playing as you get into the shuttle that manages to be equal parts hopeful and bleak. Then this Reaper comes in and gives off this juxtaposing mechanical sound in time with the music as the tension rises, that stops and goes back to piano as the shuttles explode and everyone is dying.
Then you rise up and see multiple reapers decending upon Earth as the music swells, and it's this feeling of "this is the end" in so many different ways, and it's just such a magical moment. I genuinely burst into tears on my first play through.
YES, leaving earth and 'an end once and for all' are so potent. I can't listen to those without tearing up
'The fleets arrive' also gets me every time. So damn epic.
*Fun Fact:* The *Hopes and Dreams* Theme is the Rock Version (I think) of The *Undertale* Theme.
J's Universe / Mr.Random its a nice remix and i like it :)
@@cecee4087 True, but up until now...I'm waiting for some remix artists to make a combination of this 4 Songs into one, aka; Mevalovania, Bonethrousle, Spear of Justice, and Metatton EX Theme.
The Leader of the Royal Guard, The Leader of the Royal Judge/Executioner, The one and only Trainee, and the Robot Pop Star, fighting as one in the Judgement Hall and they are called *The Royal Order* for them being the Most Powerful and Weakest Characters at the same time!
If you add Muffet on the mixed, then it'll be more of a problem to the Genocidal Route Kid.
@@jsuniversemr.random8815 well, something like that happens in underplayer, maybe I can provide a link...
@@jsuniversemr.random8815 ruclips.net/video/5kq_gkOs3Y4/видео.html and here it is... Sadly it doesn't have its own theme... But it's enough. Also I recommend to watch it regardless because I really see it as a movie for any undertale fan...
@@FranXiT I want the Remix of all Four of those Themes and all Four of them do represents the whole Underground Already, aka they are more influencing than any other people. Sans is Lazy but Perceptive, Papyrus is the Joyful and the one who gives Hope to others, Undyne is the figure of Safety and Power, and Metatton is the one who shows the phrase "Never Give Up" and "Be Who You Are The Most".
How to annoy your siblings: learn the first part of megalovania and play it on repeat for sixteen hours
Something cool I noticed while listening to the soundtracks of Assassin's Creed is- you can find Ezio's theme in Assassin's Creed 1, it's not the full version we all know and love, but the first few notes are there. If you listen closely to the soundtracks "The city of Jerusalem" and "Flight Through Jerusalem" you can kind of hear it. So it's cool how you can hear the beginning in the first game - and how the rest of the games flesh out that leitmotif.
Me: *Blasts animal crossing new leaf 11pm*
Me: *Also blasts ice climbers theme brawl*
Also me: *Blasts bonetrousle*
!!!
Omg, yes. The late night Animal Crossing music is so relaxing. Maybe they'll do a part two. Limiting to 7 tracks is difficult.
All beautiful music
It’s bonetrasuel
@@redacted4749 Google it
Gerudo Valley from ocarina of time, I’d go back there just to listen to the soundtrack :’)❤️
In my opinion fairy fountain is better
Temple of time was my favorite.
I remember playing for the first time and hearing that awesome guitar lick, I was definitely mind blown.
Needless to say, that entire game might have my favorite soundtrack of all time.
Midnas Lament.
The ice cave was also really good
Looking for this: After many successful robberies to billionaire corporations, Gregory at the age of 4 human years, settled down at his big mansion alongside the beach. All the evidence of Gregory doing such acts were destroyed, making him free of his past.
Now with a lovely wife and a pair of kids and his own mother, Gregory lived the happiest life he could ever think of. He donated millions of dollars to charity, and even funded the research of the cure of cancer.
Gregory had everything, he was the happiest man with the loveliest family the world could think of.
Gregory’s former partners in crime; Googas and Zabloing, also settled on their own homes and started their own families. Sadly, Googas was shot 4 times in the chest on a drive-by. His assassination stopped being investigated at 14 December 2019

Why is undertale not on your list?
"Dearly Beloved" Every kingdom hearts version. It just evolves with each version. I love it so much. Then the opening theme of FFXII was just majestic... and Many level of sonic the hedgehog. Just to name a few of my favorites.
Dearly Beloved, Sanctuary, Simple and Clean, Xion's theme and Roxas' theme
YES! I was just about to post this myself, such beautiful music, I can never get enough of it
When I was a wee lad, even if I wasn't playing games I would leave my PS2 on and just let the KH2 title screen play so I could enjoy the music literally for hours on end. It still tugs on my heart strings when I hear it.
Just as I opened KH3 for the first time and listened to "Dearly Beloved" I actually didn't start the actual game for another 10 minutes just listening to it. It sounded so grand and nostalgic, like coming back home for the first time in 15 years
Oh man ffxii's opening! I love ivalice so much, I would sit in front of the PS2 and just let the intro movie play over and over again because it was the height of beauty then
I love many Final Fantasy themes, but mainly the one in FFX
Every single aspect of Undertale,
is handcrafted, designed, and optimised
to punch you in the heart till you break down crying.
The most iconic and best video game music of all time is the dovakin theme from skyrim. Hands down. There are tones of amazing musical scores, some that may even be more catchy, but when that chanting starts you just feel like a total badass.
HIM: *says Megilovania*

*Megalovania
Me listening to Undertale and nearly crying. God the memories!
I’m surprised the end part didn’t mention that the undertale melody was also in the final boss them for the pasifist run
The title music, from Subnautica, called “Salutations” is just so pretty, its really relaxing but has the cool techno that tells you, this is going to be a good time
Abandon ship is my JAM!
I remember waiting for Subnautica to download and then just watching the trailer over and over and just vibing to the BOOP BOOP BEEP BAAP BOOP BOOP BEEP BAAP BOOP BOOP BEEP BAAP BOOP BOOP BOOP BOOP
I just like the entire ost lol
Leviathan class life form detected in area. Are you certain whatever your doing in worth it?
Riiiiight up until you ran into a reaper, no longer a good time, n o p e
The thing that always gets me about Undertale's soundtrack is that different parts in Asgore's theme correspond to Toriel's theme, Asriel's theme, and the song that plays when you die
The main theme from Myst IV. Beautiful.
Also the Florence + The Machine cover of Stand by Me in FFXV. It just fit so well.
The kicking of the chicken in the Fable bit just... you get me.
The main menu song in Skyrim. The fact that it is in the Dragon language and rhymes is so cool to me
While I'm among the few who prefers Skyrim to Morrowind, I must say, the Morrowind theme is far better in my eyes... ears? I dunno. Main themes aside, I must say near every track in Oblivion was truly fantastical! If I remember the story right, the composer had a near death experience a few days before starting work on the Oblivion score, inspiring him to write an original soundtrack to reflect the beauty of life. Anywhere you go, it feels as though magic is seeping out of every pixel and sound byte.
@@VeraTheTabbynx
I actually prefer Oblivion's Theme to both Morrowind and Skyrim.
@@kylie_h1978 It's definitely good, though I find it too inconsistent. Buildup... BRASS!!! ...calm? Morrowinds theme is the same tune, though more harmonious and a bit quieter, less urgent. It's not as epic, but much prettier.
My kiddo recognizes the theme
@@VeraTheTabbynx I think oblivions theme fits the whole series a little more
"Rivers in the Desert" from Persona 5. It's hard for that to play anywhere and not get stuck in my head for weeks.
Aaron Lloyd a riiiiverrr in a dryyy land
The last ace in a lost haaaaaaand
A heartbeat for a tin maaaan!
I was about to say this, my favourite P5 soundtracks are Rivers in The Desert, Wake Up, Get Up, Get out there and Take Over
Hyper Exists Take over is not from P5, it's from P5R ewe
The three songs that blew my mind are: "Still Alive" from Portal; the rap song in I think is stage two or three of Violent Storm; and from all the epic songs which compose the Guilty Gear's soundtrack, my favorite: "Momentary Life", Baiken's theme in Guilty Gear X, if I recall correctly.
I'm late to the party, but in case anyone is still checking comments on old videos: I really enjoy this type of video where you're all together and sharing personal affinities and recollections of your favorite games!
VERY late, but you'll love the Oxboxtra playlist "we chat about 7 things". All of these kind of videos in one
Not gonna lie I actually did get chills at Ezio's music
I get the chills from sephiroths theme song
And the kingdom hearts theme too makes me break down every time bc I feel that ending from the 1st one
Same. Ac2 is my favorite assassin's creed game
Same
THE ENTIRE SOUNDTRACK OF JOURNEY. ALL OF IT.
This is the correct answer.
Journey and Chrono Cross Soundtrack for me
Don't stop with just Journey. Austin Wintory's entire career.
Outer wilds. Hands down the best indie game/soundtrack/gameplay of the last 10 years haha. Also the AC ezio soundtrack is just like the music from the movie the Fountain..super similar composer style and instruments and melody
"Her Last Breath" from Phantasy Star 4 on the genesis sucker punches me every time. There's just one note that starts it, a single ring of a deep bell. All I need to hear is that one note and I start to tear up. It then builds into a sorrowful tune that plays over when (spoilers for a game from 1994) one of your party members dies permanently. The mentor figure that's been a real badass and awesome to that point, and she just dies and there's nothing you can do to stop it, and I'm not crying, you're crying!
Song of healing from Majora's mask though, it sends shivers down my spine even thinking of it
I personally love “beneath the mask” and “aria of the soul” from persona 5
Hell yeah
Both of those songs are very relaxing and I sometimes place them on my phone when I'm feeling stressed.
BTM and life will change for me
What about Rivers in the Desert or Our Beginning? Those are definitely my favs
Hellllll yeahhh
It’s a real sense of calming.
*kicks a chicken*
"Fuck"
Click Clock Wood, Night of Fate, Break Free (Lead the Way), Tarrey Town, Hailfire Peaks, Hollow Bastion...the list goes on and on!
I have to say, one of my favourites is "Drawn to Darkness" from Bendy and the Ink Machine.
It combines eerie and epic into an AMAZING final credits track.
"Undertale" makes me cry, its so sweet
YES I cried too. Because of the music.. and than the story hits
@@fabi3790 SO ITS NOT JUST ME
The whole thing is wawesome but you have to be the son of satan to play genocide route
@@dabmonstr7403 we think exactly the same
Two words: "Leaving Earth", from Mass Effect 3
I see your leaving earth and raise you a farewell and into the inevitable
Different mood, but "Suicide Mission" from Mass Effect 2.
@Naxzun Gaming "Leaving Earth" is two words. The rest is just attribution.
@Texas Jack they were kidding at least I think
The opening music to the game Rage. Combined with the dialogue and the sombre, melancholy tone breaks my heart every time
“Fódlan Winds” and “Chasing Daybreak” from Fire Emblem: Three Houses are two of the BEST songs I’ve heard from video games in my life! They both sound pretty epic, but while “Fódlan Winds” acts as a great default battle sound that highlights the strategy aspect of the game, “Chasing Daybreak” is just a crescendo of mystically epic intensity that you’d expect from a final battle that makes you FEEL the stakes of the battle. They are just beautiful😌
“Aren’t you happy?”
You’re going to be free...
God that part always gets me in the game
Oooff
The feels
DONT MAKE ME CRYYYYYYY
Damn it I cry now...
Whenever "Undertale" plays in the game, for whatever reason, it just hits me hard and I tear up.
Same here
Colorless Inkling I feel that
I can just be playing the game and tear up
That's because no matter what we do we can't get the ending we want...
Who wouldn't? Especially His theme, that one always get me
Every single time I hear "Undertale," it stabs me straight in the heart. So emotional, so beautiful.
The Bayonetta "moon" tracks are always a massive musical element of all the games, but I adore the recontexttualisation of Moon River in Bayo2 more than any other - nostalgic, elevating and unquestionably Badass
the dragon age origins theme will always, always get me, it's so jarring in its' haunting nostalgia; the build up is remarkable, just going from ghostly, delicate vocals to percussion fit for war, then back and forth between the two
The Witcher 3 not spoiling when/why it's used but the track I think it's name is 'the wolf and the swallow' is probably the most reliable way of making me cry
Or for pure nostalgia the first bandland theme from Rayman one, the song used for the biggest difficulty spike in games but is so relentlessly cheerful you don't even mind
Wolf and the Swallow for me too! I was just about to comment it but I saw you for the first :) also the fields of Are Skellig
@@CrenJay Fields of Ard Skellig!! There's so many excellent ones from The Witcher 3. Personal favorite - though I don't think it's the best: Hearts of Stone/A Gifted Man Brings Gifts Galore.
"The Wolven Storm" is another solid song in the Witcher series imho. It does more world building in its two minutes than some other stories ever hope to achieve and it definitely helps that it's performed so very well!
So many good tracks from that game
For me, an underrated yet beautiful OST is "Folsense" from the game Professor Layton and the Diabolical Box. It's so nostalgic, spooky, the ambiance of the city, gloomy and melancholic, is so well depicted through it and the orchestra version is really beautiful too.
One of my favorite songs is called unseen entities its from a game called under night in birth it really gives me the feeling of "i don't understand what im going up against but its do or die" and i love it
The warthog run theme from halo will always be amazing for those “holy shit we’ve got to move!!!” moments
Pale Rider from Halo 1 does that for me.
Skyrim, every song made me feel like I was in a Tolkien world, everything Jeremy soul have made with the series is fantastic. ❤️
Adrian Ruiz GOTTA PEE GOTTA PEE FOR THE SINGLES PARTY
Morrowinds ost is even better. Made by the same guy.
Have you ever played Oblivion? The game that came before Skyrim, really fun and then there’s the soundtrack as well
Any love for the Dungeon Siege OST? I mean the games are now weak and dated by today’s standards but Jeremy Soule did a fantastic job creating a memorable soundtrack.
Listen a bit to the main menu theme at the 2:33 mark and you’ll see what I mean.

“Awake” hits me every time I think of Skyrim and I can never get over it.
Oh boy can we include whole soundtracks? Because if so then Hades has some of the most incredible game music I've heard
Dragon Age Inquisition | Trespasser, the "Lost Elf" theme is great. It's so epic it takes my breath away every time and triggers this profound world-shattering sadness in me that leaves me winded and kinda empty feeling in the best way possible.
The song Undertale feels different from the rest of the soundtrack cause it’s the only one to use live instruments
But megalovania
@@charliesgamingplace2371 *megalovania intensifies
Fixed it for you
YU AR GONA HAV A BAD TOOOOOOAAAAAAAM!
The Fields of Ard Skellig - The Witcher 3
I still remember the first moment I heard it. After HOURS of wandering the endlessly grim bogs and forests of Velen, killing and burning everything that snarled and gurgled at me in the wrong way, stepping off the boat on Skellige, riding out into the rolling crisp hills with those Tolkienesque white topped mountains all around. Then those angelic vocals kick in. Truly a breathtaking moment.
I actually had to put the pad down for a minute and just let the beauty of it all sink in. There is something even mystical about that song. Awe inspiring
YES, I love that there's a 1 hour extended version on RUclips you can just have on repeat in the background while you do other stuff.
i know this is an old video and this game wasn't even out when it was made but wave goodbye from splatoon 3 just Gets Me for some reason. despite having never played the previous two games it still feels like i'm saying goodbye to friends i've known for ages. especially the part where you can hear human voices singing along to the squid sisters, it feels like our entire (in the game long dead) species is joining them for one last goodbye before finally moving on and leaving the earth in the hands of the new lifeforms that have now taken our place. it's wild that a song of complete gibberish sung by fictional squid idols can make me feel so many things.
The songs in Road rash for the Sega Genesis are ones I listed to for hours when I was a kid. Each location had a a unique soundtrack and definitely replayed some to listen to it again.
Undertale has lots of amazing music, I honestly am not surprised it’s on here.
Blueberry Sans I cried my eyes out when I watched youtubers play it. I’ve never played it though. I’m broke but I got a switch a Christmas or two ago and I’m too scared to ask for money or games. I love it with all my damn heart.
@@Luciel.680 Play it by yourself, it's totally worth it :)
ikr but they should've done 'his theme'
I like Memory. Its kinda like his theme. Put the following video at 0.75 speed (its just the song Memory) ruclips.net/video/baNrufyAza8/видео.html
Yeah.
I agree with Jane one of the best game songs. Three songs that you missed
1. Leaving Earth - Mass Effect 3 it fit that moment and just great.
2. The main theme in Oblivion at the beginning right before you start.
3.The song in Skyrim when a dragon attacks, the moment when you realize you will have to empty your inventory after this fight just epic.
Oblivion is pretty awesome with its soundtrack, especially when you are in the wilderness and the soft orchestral music playing in the background reflects the vastness of the province. Excellent pick.
I'm also going to add the Normandy II reveal from Mass Effect 2, and Distant Horizons kicking in as you crest the hill overlooking Rorikstead at dawn.
Well that was 3 of mine right there, epic choices.
I know I'm suuuuper late to the party, but that 15 seconds of music Luke was freaking out about is a little piece in Twilight Princess called "Courage" and is primarily used as Collin's theme and when you inspire Prince Ralis to move forward after his parents death. I don't know if Courage is unique to TP, but I don't remember hearing it anywhere else.
I keep coming back to this even 4 years later JUST for Jane’s passion and descriptiveness when describing Halo 2. Just wonderful
