Curious, but why didn't you use the Color Dungeon theme from Link's Awakening DX for #48? It's the same melody, but a bit more of a fleshed out piece overall

I love Breath of the Wild’s main theme. It reminds me of when I first went into the game, not knowing what to expect. I dream of being able to experience the game for the first time again. Subsequent playthroughs just aren’t the same. Having said that, I need to go play it again now
slambrecht6 agreed, that’s one of my favorite boss themes/bosses. really, the whole dungeon is gray. since i was so miserable playing through snowhead temple in MM, i was happy that they finally got an ice dungeon right in TP.
I really like how the theme songs of each Zelda game captures its feel. Twilight princess with a more darker tone, Wind waker with a more hyppy tone and breath of the wild with a really epic tone.
Here it is broken down by game: Legend of Zelda- 2 songs Adventure of LInk-- 1 song Link to the Past- 5 songs Link's Awakening- 2 songs Ocarina of Time- 10 songs Majora's Mask- 6 songs Oracle of Ages/Seasons- 0 songs :( Wind Waker- 7 songs The Minish Cap- 0 songs :( Twilight Princess- 6 songs including the top spot Phantom Hourglass- 1 song Spirit Tracks- 1 song Skyward Sword- 3 songs A Link Between Worlds- 2 songs Breath of the Wild- 4 songs Kinda surprised there weren't any from the Oracle games or Minish Cap. Maybe next year.
What about the songs from Four Swords Adventure and Tri Force Heroes? I love those soundtracks and none of these compilation videos ever seem to include them
*Happy Dance!* I'm so happy that Midna's Lament made first place :D. Now I know I exaggerate sometimes when it comes to TP, but it truly deserves this position, its so bueatiful and fitting when used! Thank you to everyone who rated it highly, I raise a bottle of Cream Soda Bawls (soda brand, look it up) to Midna's Lament placing first. Now, if I were to make a Top 10 list using only these songs this is what it would look like: 1. TP: Midna's Lament 2. TP: Midna's Theme 3. TAoL: Great Palace 4. TP: Sacred Grove 5. BotW: Beast Ganon 6. TP: Hyrule Field 7. LA: Tal Tal Heights 8. TP: Hidden Village 9. WW: Molgera 10. OoT: Gerudo Valley This list is amazing, Thank you for putting it together. -Puzzle- P.S. Who else shed a tear when Midna's Lament came on?
Very refreshing list. I’m surprised to see Spirit Tracks overworld and Breath of the Wild Hyrule Castle theme at 3 and 4 but I’m glad they were there. Some of my favorites were missing but great list altogether

@@Bobby-Dingers while I do like OoT's theme a bit more, that's just more my preference in types of music. I love that relaxing piano music. But I still love Majora's Mask's theme a ton, and how it slowly grows more sinister as the song goes on, which really captures the feel of the game.
Man listening to this really shows how amazing the entire series music is. So many songs worthy of number 1 imo. Some songs just capture what they play for so excellently. Midnas theme really gets that mix of mischief and darkness down. Only feedback is that some of these feel like more of a nostalgia song than an actual good one, like ALttP ending.
I'm glad Fi's Farewell/Gratitude got some love, but the regular Fi's Theme is hands down one of the best pieces of music I've ever heard. I also feel like Ghirahim's Battle theme, and Sealed Temple deserve to be on here. Just more Skyward Sword music in general.
Holy crap this is almost my same list. This brings back so many great memories and I love it. My main difference however is that instead of Save Ilia, I would have had Ilia's Memory Restored
#13 "Legendary Hero" and #5 "Gerudo Valley" are just breathtaking. BTW this is the best compilation of Zelda's music. Fi's Farewell is similar to Zbigniew Preisner's film music ("The Secter Garden" 1993). Thanks for our effort creating this toplist.

Fantastic list. Tbh, i never got the love for Midna's Lament but I do love Twilight Princess' theme so I'm not complaining. If 3 Skyward Sword songs were going to get in, I would've put Skyloft over Romance In The Air. Happy to see all the love Wind Waker got. My favourite Zelda soundtrack of all time. Also, Stone Tower Temple was much higher than I anticipated. I'm so happy! I always felt that that song is forgotten by fans but I guess not!
Great list! If I did mine I’d definitely have more BotW and Skyward sword in it but any list of Zelda music is a good list. Good to see twilight princess getting some love though.
Danmunite _I'm glad that there is at least _*_one_*_ song from a really good but sadly underrated zelda game, but it's "just" the overworld. There are many other good songs in ST like Byrne's Theme or Spirit Duet_
I love this list of Zelda songs, it really does the series justice to have so many great songs in one place and on one list, I was very pleased to hear songs from A Link to the Past, it brought back memories of getting it for Christmas with old Super Nintendo and playing through it with my family. The Ballad of the Wind Fish was also very pleasing to listen to and see on this list, the song is very near and dear to my heart as Link's Awakening was my first solo playthrough in the Zelda series. I have no disagreements with any part of the list and it leaves me very hopeful and excited to see where Zelda games will go in the future.
Song of storms not Number 1? REEEEE! Jokes aside, I love each of these songs, each bringing memories and nostalgia flowing back from the classics like the underworld theme from the originial zelda, and Kokiri forest from OoT, to newer favorites like ballad of the goddess from Skyward Sword and Midna's lament from TP. I'm sure all 50 of these are all VERY close together in everyones heart even if this was a top 100 or more list, as each track in the series is memorable in its own right, like the minigame song in OoT and Majoras mask, especially. What I'm trying to say is this, The composers, musicians, and writers on the Zelda team are some of the most talented people on the planet, and helped shaped my childhood. Thank you Nintendo for each adventure, and Thank you Zelda dungeon for helping me with the more annoying puzzles in each. (And those damn Koroks...)
Windwaker's credit music is beynod beautiful... this series defined my childhood and in a way introduced me to the beauty of arts. While my classmates were playing fifa and Halo i was playing this masterpiece. I can see clearly how this game influenced me to be a guitar and piano player. Thanks nintendo!
For me: the original LoZ theme will always be among my top 3. It just reminds me being a kid in the 80s playing Zelda...plus it has a very mysterious vibe.
mordinchemist sorry about the late response, but I saw this comment and absolutely had to agree. I would move the title screen up from 14 to possibly even number one
*while number 22 plays I hope Molgera is somewhere in the top 50... *number 21 starts *Stops everything im doing I KNEW IT, it had to be there somewhere.
I am very disappointed that the title theme from Twilight Princess didn't make the list. One of if not the best title themes in the series if you ask me.
My favorite title themes are in this order: 1. Ocarina of Time 2. Windwaker 3. A Link Between Worlds or Alttp 4. Twilight Princess 5. Spirit Tracks 6. Majora's Mask If you count Skyward Sword's extra trailer thing on the title screen I put that at #2 All the title themes are great but some are better by tiny margins Breath of the Wild didn't exactly have a title theme
I would have liked to see oath to order higher up and I’m surprised some of the other champions’ themes from BOTW didn’t make it. Also, my favourite version of Zelda’s lullaby is skyward sword’s. Overall, this is a very solid list.
Cheers for great list! Although it is very different from mine tho idk if i have bad taste :/ Twilight Princess sucked for me i guess My list: 10. Ocarina of Time: Saria's Song/Lost Woods 9. A Link to the Past: Dark World 8. A Link to the Past: Overworld 7. Wind Waker: Dragon Roost Island 6. Breath of the Wild: Hyrule Castle 5. Majora's Mask: Clock Town (Personal fav) 4. Ocarina of Time: Song of Storms 3. Majora's Mask: Song of Healing 2. Skyward Sword: Ballad of the Goddess 1. Ocarina of Time: Hyrule Field
I feel like Zora's Domain from Ocarina really deserves to be on here.... my personal number 1 is Lost Woods theme/Saria's Song. Mipha's theme is a good pick from BotW. Linebeck's theme is legendary, yeah pretty solid list
Ocarina already had 10 songs on the list. While I think Zora's Domain is a fine song, as is the Lost Woods... When I think of the best songs from Ocarina, neither of those even make my own personal Top 5... (Let alone my personal Top 10 for the entire Zelda series). Therefore, they didn't get many votes.
I think the Sacred Grove theme (#40) from Twilight Princess contains the Lost Woods/Saria's Song with a spookier touch. Check out ruclips.net/video/Ihw6VMU17r8/видео.html
Thank you for this list...listening now. I was surprised to see that none of the Spirit Realm tracks from Skyward Sword made it, as I find them to be among the best songs Zelda has to offer.
dark mountain from link to the past was my absolute favourite from the game. and just such a bop. song of storms is my absolutely favourite overall song of course. but the music when you are down near the witches hut in the dark world is also a close second in the game. i dont know what it was about that game but i know every melody and accompaniment in it.
Okay, but.... Tarm Ruins? Where? Tarm Ruins is such a beautiful song and I’m really sad to not see it here :(( But I’m super happy to see Clock Town so high up!! Such an amazing song, I feel liked it is often overlooked by people, definitely my fave Majora song
So many amazing songs, all in one video! I could never rank Zelda songs in a top- anything, but for a general "best 50", I'd swap out Termina Field, Sacred Grove, Dark Mountain Forest, LTTP Ending, and Legendary Hero for: BotW Zora's Domain, Minish Village theme, Gannondorf Battle (OoT), Twilight Princess Malo Mart theme, and Deku Palace Theme (MM). With an honorable mention to the BotW minigame song. :P
The only glaring omissions I see are Sidon’s theme and Kass’ theme IMO and the BOTW main theme deserves to be far higher because it really is gorgeous, but BOTW is newer so perhaps doesn’t benefit from nostalgia yet. Overall though a fab list :)
I think Breath of the Wild has fantastic music. However, it has a 200+ music soundtrack and many of the songs play at only very specific moments in the game and because of that, are not repeated and thus, not as memorable by the fans. I don't think Kass' theme is even a Top 25 song from Breath of the Wild... but it is probably one of the most memorable ones because it is one of the few songs that is heard regularly throughout the game.
Breath of the Wild also doesn't really have that quality to the music that makes it memorable. Those pieces might be gorgeous or whatever, sure, but I certainly don't remember them like I do Lost Woods from OoT. (which by the way wasn't on the list and neither was the Temple theme from Zelda 2. ARGH.)
Awesome list! Watched the whole thing in one sitting! I never thought I'd see the day where a Top 50 list for ZELDA MUSIC would be extremely hard to make. And there's still so many more tunes to listen to! I wonder, have you done a list just for mini/regular dungeon themes and their respective miniboss and boss battles?
Oooh, kass theme is great, and so is gerudo valley but, hyrule castle, song of storms and, majoras theme/clock town are the best. im not a music reviewer with credentials, but everyone has different taste.
It’s so difficult to squeeze such a vast amount of music from such an incredible series into only 2 hours, but I’m sad to see that there’s no majoras mask observatory in here. fantastic list though!
Ocarina has best soundtrack hands down. Was my fave game too till botw. I'm like a couple weeks into it and I'm still just blown the fuck away. It was so good
We didn't forget this, but early in the week when we talked about Forgotten Tracks, this is one I mentioned. It's a fantastic song and should have been in the Top 50 for sure. Only two team members had it in their Top 10 and it didn't have the points to make in the Top 50.
You should totally make an "honorable mentions" video with all the rest of the tracks and release that as well. I'm sure we'd get quite a few gems in that one as well
I don’t know what it’s called but the sort of music box version of the song of the hero I think during the Yiga clan memory of botw. It sounds really sad and hauntingly beautiful at the same time, and it’s when Zelda fell in love with Link. I think anyway.
Nah, better top 10: 10. Zora's Domain (OoT) 9. Tal Tal heights (L'sA [GB]) 8. Deku Palace (MM) 7. Hyrule Field (TP) 6. Dark World (ALttP) 5. Dragon Roost Island (TWW) 4. Gerudo Valley (OoT) 3. Palace (Zelda II) 2. Title Screen (TLoZ) 1. Hyrule Castle (ALttP) And if you're curious what the next 40 songs would be, maybe you'd better ask what they WOULDN'T be, like worst versions like the "king's farewell" or frankenstein songs like the 4th place. Yeah really, you can put a version you'd think's a better version in #2 like the field theme, or ALttP's Hyrule Field, etc. And that would be ok but "farewell hyrule king" or even TP's version? Just no.
I don't think Gerudo Valley should have been put higher than the Ballad of the Goddess. Personally I liked the Ballad the best...but otherwise I agree with this list! This must have taken you a long time to compile and it shows.

Zelda Dungeon why did I know Midna's Lament was going to be the #1 song???
Curious, but why didn't you use the Color Dungeon theme from Link's Awakening DX for #48? It's the same melody, but a bit more of a fleshed out piece overall
How long did that take?!

Thank you very much. Why nobody appreciate you anyway...😤
I love Breath of the Wild’s main theme. It reminds me of when I first went into the game, not knowing what to expect. I dream of being able to experience the game for the first time again. Subsequent playthroughs just aren’t the same.
Having said that, I need to go play it again now
Braden Cosier it can still be fun if you really take in the beauty of the open world and the satisfying exploration and plunder
Oh, absolutely. I'm going to start a new game later today to play it again. Sadly though I've explored mostly everything so nothing will surprise me
IKR?
Botw is the besf game ever made
@@JlMBO11 then you have to play more games
I'm glad Twilight Princess's soundtrack is being admired :)
YES!!!
I'm glad that Spirit Tracks is as well because it seems like almost everyone hates that game yet I LOVE IT
Indeed, to bad my favourite didn't make it though, Blizzeta Boss Battle Theme.
slambrecht6 agreed, that’s one of my favorite boss themes/bosses.
really, the whole dungeon is gray. since i was so miserable playing through snowhead temple in MM, i was happy that they finally got an ice dungeon right in TP.
yes
I really like how the theme songs of each Zelda game captures its feel. Twilight princess with a more darker tone, Wind waker with a more hyppy tone and breath of the wild with a really epic tone.
Here it is broken down by game:
Legend of Zelda- 2 songs
Adventure of LInk-- 1 song
Link to the Past- 5 songs
Link's Awakening- 2 songs
Ocarina of Time- 10 songs
Majora's Mask- 6 songs
Oracle of Ages/Seasons- 0 songs :(
Wind Waker- 7 songs
The Minish Cap- 0 songs :(
Twilight Princess- 6 songs including the top spot
Phantom Hourglass- 1 song
Spirit Tracks- 1 song
Skyward Sword- 3 songs
A Link Between Worlds- 2 songs
Breath of the Wild- 4 songs
Kinda surprised there weren't any from the Oracle games or Minish Cap. Maybe next year.
Such a shame really, MC has such good music. Dark Hyrule Castle, Minish Village, Hyrule Town, Cloud Tops, underappreciated soundtrack
As much as I mostly dislike Minish Cap, it did have some fun music, namely the minish woods, for me at least.
you forgot the cd-i games... FBI open up! Oh no i din't talk about them!!!!!!!!
What about the songs from Four Swords Adventure and Tri Force Heroes? I love those soundtracks and none of these compilation videos ever seem to include them
I DONT CARE IF THEYRE ON THE LIST OR NOT THEYRE ALL GOOD NO MATTER WHAT.
Im happy that this was made after legend of zelda breath of the wild's release; it has some soundtrack that needs to be in this list
*Happy Dance!* I'm so happy that Midna's Lament made first place :D. Now I know I exaggerate sometimes when it comes to TP, but it truly deserves this position, its so bueatiful and fitting when used! Thank you to everyone who rated it highly, I raise a bottle of Cream Soda Bawls (soda brand, look it up) to Midna's Lament placing first. Now, if I were to make a Top 10 list using only these songs this is what it would look like:
1. TP: Midna's Lament
2. TP: Midna's Theme
3. TAoL: Great Palace
4. TP: Sacred Grove
5. BotW: Beast Ganon
6. TP: Hyrule Field
7. LA: Tal Tal Heights
8. TP: Hidden Village
9. WW: Molgera
10. OoT: Gerudo Valley
This list is amazing, Thank you for putting it together. -Puzzle-
P.S. Who else shed a tear when Midna's Lament came on?
not me. Tal tal heights is my favourite, with gerudo valley second. I prefer heroic songs, but I like them too. great choice
1:19:34is my favorite part of my favorite song. Literally the best. So packed with memories
These are great picks, I love all of these songs. The legend of zelda series has so much beautiful music.
Very refreshing list. I’m surprised to see Spirit Tracks overworld and Breath of the Wild Hyrule Castle theme at 3 and 4 but I’m glad they were there. Some of my favorites were missing but great list altogether
Nice list!
shortcut to all songs: (for people like me)

Thanks Tim, I added these to the pinned comment as well.
Mases Hagopian glad I could help.
:)
While not my favorite Zelda game, Ocarina of Time's opening theme will always be one of my top favorite themes. Hitting me with such nostalgic waves.
You think it's better than mm theme, for real?
@@Bobby-Dingers while I do like OoT's theme a bit more, that's just more my preference in types of music. I love that relaxing piano music. But I still love Majora's Mask's theme a ton, and how it slowly grows more sinister as the song goes on, which really captures the feel of the game.
#28 just gave me goosebumps all over. Listen to a motif that's supposed to emulate the end of the world really does make one emotional.
Man listening to this really shows how amazing the entire series music is. So many songs worthy of number 1 imo. Some songs just capture what they play for so excellently. Midnas theme really gets that mix of mischief and darkness down. Only feedback is that some of these feel like more of a nostalgia song than an actual good one, like ALttP ending.
24:23 always gave me chills when I was a child, I used to have exciting nightmares :'(
AHHHHHH WIND WAKER!!! Such a great theme and the fact I complete one of my favourite zelda games of the Wii U 3 years back just makes me happy!
I'm glad Fi's Farewell/Gratitude got some love, but the regular Fi's Theme is hands down one of the best pieces of music I've ever heard. I also feel like Ghirahim's Battle theme, and Sealed Temple deserve to be on here. Just more Skyward Sword music in general.
Isle of Songs and Lanayru Sand Sea are both awesome... Wish they made it.
Same
*groose intensifies*
Fi's Theme is my #1 😍
Holy crap this is almost my same list. This brings back so many great memories and I love it. My main difference however is that instead of Save Ilia, I would have had Ilia's Memory Restored
Spirit tracks has one of the best music soundtracks. Its super underrated
dmerhi true
Yes I 100% agree, its not because the game isn't really good (even though I loved playing it as a kid) that the music aren't great.
Yeah! I love the music and the handheld games are under appreciated
You're all forgetting Minish Cap. That game is more underrated than ST and PH. Plus the music is amazing.
#13 "Legendary Hero" and #5 "Gerudo Valley" are just breathtaking. BTW this is the best compilation of Zelda's music. Fi's Farewell is similar to Zbigniew Preisner's film music ("The Secter Garden" 1993). Thanks for our effort creating this toplist.

1. Twilight Princess - Midna's Lament-1:55:07
Fantastic list. Tbh, i never got the love for Midna's Lament but I do love Twilight Princess' theme so I'm not complaining. If 3 Skyward Sword songs were going to get in, I would've put Skyloft over Romance In The Air. Happy to see all the love Wind Waker got. My favourite Zelda soundtrack of all time. Also, Stone Tower Temple was much higher than I anticipated. I'm so happy! I always felt that that song is forgotten by fans but I guess not!
Great list! If I did mine I’d definitely have more BotW and Skyward sword in it but any list of Zelda music is a good list. Good to see twilight princess getting some love though.
ST overworld theme place at #3 makes me want to not doubt the human race anymore
Danmunite _I'm glad that there is at least _*_one_*_ song from a really good but sadly underrated zelda game, but it's "just" the overworld. There are many other good songs in ST like Byrne's Theme or Spirit Duet_
@@liamseres Sure even if this game is on DS there's a lot of beautiful musics as Spirit Duet and the Overworld
@@liamseres dude byrne's battle theme is such a banger, such a shame that this game is overlooked
This is one of my favorite Zelda games to this day still.
Midna's Lament certainly deserves number 1. I was speechless when I got to that part of the game
I love this list of Zelda songs, it really does the series justice to have so many great songs in one place and on one list, I was very pleased to hear songs from A Link to the Past, it brought back memories of getting it for Christmas with old Super Nintendo and playing through it with my family. The Ballad of the Wind Fish was also very pleasing to listen to and see on this list, the song is very near and dear to my heart as Link's Awakening was my first solo playthrough in the Zelda series. I have no disagreements with any part of the list and it leaves me very hopeful and excited to see where Zelda games will go in the future.
tal tal heights is my favourite. the wind fish song breaks my heart
Alas, Scrapper/Skyward Sword didn't make the cut. Mistress Fi and Master Shortpants are both disappointed.
As a lover of Skyward Sword, all I can say is YES
Song of storms not Number 1? REEEEE! Jokes aside, I love each of these songs, each bringing memories and nostalgia flowing back from the classics like the underworld theme from the originial zelda, and Kokiri forest from OoT, to newer favorites like ballad of the goddess from Skyward Sword and Midna's lament from TP. I'm sure all 50 of these are all VERY close together in everyones heart even if this was a top 100 or more list, as each track in the series is memorable in its own right, like the minigame song in OoT and Majoras mask, especially. What I'm trying to say is this, The composers, musicians, and writers on the Zelda team are some of the most talented people on the planet, and helped shaped my childhood. Thank you Nintendo for each adventure, and Thank you Zelda dungeon for helping me with the more annoying puzzles in each. (And those damn Koroks...)
MrIcezGaming they probably thought the other songs felt better besides memories
If it makes you feel better, I stand with you. Even have song of storms tattooed on my forearm!
DAMN KOROKS. Korok forest theme in botw sucks
Windwaker's credit music is beynod beautiful... this series defined my childhood and in a way introduced me to the beauty of arts. While my classmates were playing fifa and Halo i was playing this masterpiece.
I can see clearly how this game influenced me to be a guitar and piano player. Thanks nintendo!
I LOVE THIS VIDEO!❤️ so many good games, so many good memories and songs...I love your top 10!
For me: the original LoZ theme will always be among my top 3. It just reminds me being a kid in the 80s playing Zelda...plus it has a very mysterious vibe.
mordinchemist sorry about the late response, but I saw this comment and absolutely had to agree. I would move the title screen up from 14 to possibly even number one
I like tal tal heights
*while number 22 plays
I hope Molgera is somewhere in the top 50...
*number 21 starts
*Stops everything im doing
I KNEW IT, it had to be there somewhere.
Where is Zelda II's palace theme? Grand palace theme is okay, but the normal palace theme is AMAZING!
I am very disappointed that the title theme from Twilight Princess didn't make the list. One of if not the best title themes in the series if you ask me.
My favorite title themes are in this order:
1. Ocarina of Time
2. Windwaker
3. A Link Between Worlds or Alttp
4. Twilight Princess
5. Spirit Tracks
6. Majora's Mask
If you count Skyward Sword's extra trailer thing on the title screen I put that at #2
All the title themes are great but some are better by tiny margins
Breath of the Wild didn't exactly have a title theme
Totally agree!!
Botw title theme is my favorite
@potato guy botw havn’t title theme
Quick warning for you guys, Nintendo just shut down all my lists for copyright. I'm risking a take down of the channel, be careful!
Our RUclips channel is part of the Nintendo Creator's Program. This particular video has been accepted by Nintendo through their program. ~Mases
Romance in the air is just awesome and beautiful.
Twilight princess is my favourite game of all time. Visuals, music, gameplay, it's all amazing.
botw best
Beast Ganon at the beggining is like a retro song. The rest is a remix of the main theme.
Nice list!
Wish 'Save Illa' (#44) was higher on the list, totally agree on #1 and #5!
Some of these gave me the chills, listening again :)
Gerudo Valley was #5? I feel like I'm missing a joke or something with that winky face lol
yes it is, I didn't realize that, lol!
XD
Starts off with my favourite Zelda piece...it's a shame its so low, but at least it's included. The orchestral version by Theophany is even better.
Cool list!
I would have liked to see oath to order higher up and I’m surprised some of the other champions’ themes from BOTW didn’t make it. Also, my favourite version of Zelda’s lullaby is skyward sword’s. Overall, this is a very solid list.
Cheers for great list! Although it is very different from mine tho idk if i have bad taste :/
Twilight Princess sucked for me i guess
My list:
10. Ocarina of Time: Saria's Song/Lost Woods
9. A Link to the Past: Dark World
8. A Link to the Past: Overworld
7. Wind Waker: Dragon Roost Island
6. Breath of the Wild: Hyrule Castle
5. Majora's Mask: Clock Town (Personal fav)
4. Ocarina of Time: Song of Storms
3. Majora's Mask: Song of Healing
2. Skyward Sword: Ballad of the Goddess
1. Ocarina of Time: Hyrule Field
I agree with your personal favorite
tal.tal.heights
there is nothing i agree with more than the pick for #1
Great homework music love it! I'm also a fan of Zelda Warfare. Hoping to see more from yall in the future.
thanks! you certainly will - goo
I played almost all of zelda's series but nothing beats my love to ocarina of time and the gerudo valley song, good time in a desert.
yesyesyes. gerudo valley is second for me, with tal tal heights 1st
I feel like Zora's Domain from Ocarina really deserves to be on here.... my personal number 1 is Lost Woods theme/Saria's Song. Mipha's theme is a good pick from BotW. Linebeck's theme is legendary, yeah pretty solid list
Ocarina already had 10 songs on the list. While I think Zora's Domain is a fine song, as is the Lost Woods... When I think of the best songs from Ocarina, neither of those even make my own personal Top 5... (Let alone my personal Top 10 for the entire Zelda series). Therefore, they didn't get many votes.
I think the Sacred Grove theme (#40) from Twilight Princess contains the Lost Woods/Saria's Song with a spookier touch. Check out ruclips.net/video/Ihw6VMU17r8/видео.html
Never gotten info LTTP (I have it on SNES mini) but it just feels like the SNES games had a special sound quality to them. All of them sound rich
Thank you for this list...listening now. I was surprised to see that none of the Spirit Realm tracks from Skyward Sword made it, as I find them to be among the best songs Zelda has to offer.
So glad Midna’s Lament is number 1, what a beautiful song.
I'm surprised to see the song of healing that low in the ranking.
Patralgan _I'm not. I'm actually kinda glad, don't ask lol_
😨
@@liamseres yh I came from oot to mm and comparatively, the music in mm is trash
@@Blaise_T mmmhh, that's... Well, some tracks are good (which I even prefer over oot)! But I know what you mean ^^
@@liamseres yh there are a few gems
Mipha's Theme always gets me into tears. no joke
my favourite is revali's theme
dark mountain from link to the past was my absolute favourite from the game. and just such a bop. song of storms is my absolutely favourite overall song of course. but the music when you are down near the witches hut in the dark world is also a close second in the game. i dont know what it was about that game but i know every melody and accompaniment in it.
Great list, love that Tal Tal Heights from LA!
my favorite
mine too. that's the best song
Okay, but.... Tarm Ruins? Where? Tarm Ruins is such a beautiful song and I’m really sad to not see it here :((
But I’m super happy to see Clock Town so high up!! Such an amazing song, I feel liked it is often overlooked by people, definitely my fave Majora song
So many amazing songs, all in one video! I could never rank Zelda songs in a top- anything, but for a general "best 50", I'd swap out Termina Field, Sacred Grove, Dark Mountain Forest, LTTP Ending, and Legendary Hero for: BotW Zora's Domain, Minish Village theme, Gannondorf Battle (OoT), Twilight Princess Malo Mart theme, and Deku Palace Theme (MM). With an honorable mention to the BotW minigame song. :P
The Wind Waker: Outset Island is happiness in a song
Oh, I wish I had time to listen to all of these songs fully
you guys should make this a playlist on soundcloud or something :D
I think we all agree that without Mr. Koji Kondo, this game series wouldn't be the same. Thank you, Sir!
Kass’ theme is soo underrated
Breath of the wild was so f***ing overrated tho
The only glaring omissions I see are Sidon’s theme and Kass’ theme IMO and the BOTW main theme deserves to be far higher because it really is gorgeous, but BOTW is newer so perhaps doesn’t benefit from nostalgia yet. Overall though a fab list :)
I think Breath of the Wild has fantastic music. However, it has a 200+ music soundtrack and many of the songs play at only very specific moments in the game and because of that, are not repeated and thus, not as memorable by the fans. I don't think Kass' theme is even a Top 25 song from Breath of the Wild... but it is probably one of the most memorable ones because it is one of the few songs that is heard regularly throughout the game.
Breath of the Wild also doesn't really have that quality to the music that makes it memorable. Those pieces might be gorgeous or whatever, sure, but I certainly don't remember them like I do Lost Woods from OoT. (which by the way wasn't on the list and neither was the Temple theme from Zelda 2. ARGH.)
Thanks for finally giving the botw outside castle theme some appreciation:)
Awesome list! Watched the whole thing in one sitting! I never thought I'd see the day where a Top 50 list for ZELDA MUSIC would be extremely hard to make. And there's still so many more tunes to listen to!
I wonder, have you done a list just for mini/regular dungeon themes and their respective miniboss and boss battles?
That video is so good. All the musics r amazing tnx a lot!
I’m mad that grooses theme is not on this list
Elegy of Emptiness / Requiem of Spirit are my 2 favorite songs in the series.
Kass' theme and gerudo valley are my favorite
Oooh, kass theme is great, and so is gerudo valley but, hyrule castle, song of storms and, majoras theme/clock town are the best. im not a music reviewer with credentials, but everyone has different taste.
Lost woods 😫😢😤😭😧😓😯😖😲😰😡
I took one look at it and immediately pulled up a guide
So glad Forest Temple and Fi's Farewell made it. Absolute faves.
#10 spelling mistake. Says "The Great place" should be Palace right?
It's a heck of a Place.... but damn, I knew I would make at least one error somewhere. Yes, it is supposed to be the Great Palace...
Mases Hagopian
Hahaha yes mistakes happen. Great list and great work. Keep it up. Enjoy everything you guys do.
It’s so difficult to squeeze such a vast amount of music from such an incredible series into only 2 hours, but I’m sad to see that there’s no majoras mask observatory in here. fantastic list though!
Song of Storms and the TP hidden village back to back? Sign me up! Just wish it was a bit higher....
The Spirit Tracks overworld theme might be the best.
Why is fis farewell so high up its a sad song yet the best moment in the game
Ocarina has best soundtrack hands down. Was my fave game too till botw. I'm like a couple weeks into it and I'm still just blown the fuck away. It was so good
Darren Cooper yeah ikr botw is without a doubt the best Zelda game ever made
Was,?! You meant is.
I love, skyward sword 😍❤
Agreed, I’m in the middle of doing the hard mode right now.
I turn on this and get hit with a MM and ALTTP right after one another.
Fuck yeah, Thanks Zelda Dungeon.
Ballad of the goddess is propably my favorite
But... but... WHAT ABOUT THE BOTW STORY TRAILER THEME???
B Hsi We didn't count it for some reason. It was my #2, otherwise.
Please tell me why divine beast vah medoh theme is not on this list (breath of the wild)
Dude, Legendary Hero makes you experience every emotion
Man why is linebecks theme so low!
Lanayru Sand Sea deserves to appear in this list and on the top of it in fact. I think it's a misunderstanding, you must had forgotten it.
We didn't forget this, but early in the week when we talked about Forgotten Tracks, this is one I mentioned. It's a fantastic song and should have been in the Top 50 for sure. Only two team members had it in their Top 10 and it didn't have the points to make in the Top 50.
You should totally make an "honorable mentions" video with all the rest of the tracks and release that as well. I'm sure we'd get quite a few gems in that one as well
what about link's and zeldas duet from spirit tracks?
sacred grove sounds like undertale lost woods...
Sounds nothing like undertale but ok
For me, the song OverWorld from Spirit Tracks should be the 1. But the Midna’s Lament is awesome, is a beautiful song!
I cried when i heard this ;-;
Its too good to exist ;-; ;-;
ZELDA DUNGEON DESERVES MORE SUBS AND LIKES AND SHARES AND EVERYTHING
zelda has a song for every emotion you're feeling
I don’t know what it’s called but the sort of music box version of the song of the hero I think during the Yiga clan memory of botw. It sounds really sad and hauntingly beautiful at the same time, and it’s when Zelda fell in love with Link. I think anyway.
Anyone know what instrumentation was used for the temple of time? Would be nice to know.
Majora final day gives me goodbumps
Nah, better top 10:
10. Zora's Domain (OoT)
9. Tal Tal heights (L'sA [GB])
8. Deku Palace (MM)
7. Hyrule Field (TP)
6. Dark World (ALttP)
5. Dragon Roost Island (TWW)
4. Gerudo Valley (OoT)
3. Palace (Zelda II)
2. Title Screen (TLoZ)
1. Hyrule Castle (ALttP)
And if you're curious what the next 40 songs would be, maybe you'd better ask what they WOULDN'T be, like worst versions like the "king's farewell" or frankenstein songs like the 4th place. Yeah really, you can put a version you'd think's a better version in #2 like the field theme, or ALttP's Hyrule Field, etc. And that would be ok but "farewell hyrule king" or even TP's version? Just no.
The problem with the origenal dungeon theme is it's fine to listen to while playing but can get annoying on it's own.
I don't think Gerudo Valley should have been put higher than the Ballad of the Goddess. Personally I liked the Ballad the best...but otherwise I agree with this list! This must have taken you a long time to compile and it shows.
The majora's mask final hours song makes me want to cry
Also where the heck is Hyrule Castle LttP?
Not a single vote at all. It got overshadowed by the Breath of the Wild rendition.
Doesn't help that Goodbye Hyrule King is the same song
Fi’s farewell is my favorite Zelda piece
Kokiri forest needs to be about 40 ranks higher.
When Midna's Lament hit at number 1 I almost cried...
