* The snare drum-heavy [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gtluqzRN9VI main overworld theme]] is the perfect backdrop for an army marching off into battle.
* Although the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2hxRoyGv_ag battle scene theme]] is a bit goofy at the start, it soon settles into an adrenaline-charged version of the game's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=McP1infL22A main theme]] that conveys a definite sense of triumph.
* Among the battle themes, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=veyDtI3wTxA "Battle 1"]] is one of the less often used, but conveys the perfect balance of tension and adventure.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CrTEsSO5xfE "Battle 3"]] takes the basic melodic idea from the idyllic [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DqFHJvk2vYY town theme]] and turns it on its ear into a harsh, nightmarish track.
* And [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZgS9ZefgAnQ the final battle theme]] practically screams "The fate of the world hinges on the outcome of this fight! There's no turning back now - fight for all you're worth!"

* The main overworld theme, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9UYYyTjvq9Y "Wandering Warriors",]] is the very essence of a musical call to adventure, from its soaring opening glissando and trill over a fanfare that immediately seizes the listener's attention to a triumphant march that conjures up images of heroes marching into the fray.
* "Wandering Warriors" is creatively re-mixed into many other themes, including the stark and serious [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vf39a_hh84Q castle theme,]] which conveys just the right shades of ceremony and gravitas.
* The dramatic [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wbNzuWLL0p0 "Ready for War",]] which also starts with a variation on the melody from "Wandering Warriors" before spinning off in its own direction, is a battlefield theme sure to get your blood pumping for the task ahead.
* The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X6fNJTvbM9g shrine theme]] provides a deliciously haunting backdrop to some of the game's darker levels, including the secret post-credits bonus battle.
* And like its predecessor, ''Shining Force II'' has a frantic, urgent [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7qvudKHKozc final battle theme]] that helps to hammer home just how much the fate of the world rests on victory in this confrontation.
* The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QZkJ0mzithw unpromoted]] attack theme is actually seen as better by some, sounding like a victory theme.

''VideoGame/ShiningInTheDarkness'' is a relatively unheard of game made by Creator/{{Sega}}, due to being overshadowed by its SpiritualSuccessor the ''VideoGame/ShiningForce'' series and the ''VideoGame/PhantasyStar'' series. Nonetheless it does have a few tunes that are great.
* [[http://youtu.be/giDcJppBhGE "The Ancient Temple"]], a great way to start your first forays into the mysterious labyrinth to perform the trials of the light.
* [[http://youtu.be/NYpf6lfr_Is "Searching for Princess Claire"]], the dungeon theme heard in the later half of the game as you search the labyrinth proper for the hero's father and the princess, it is ''quite'' epic.

Shining Force II has a suitably ambitious score to go with a story and battle engine more ambitious than those of its predecessor.
The main overworld theme, "Wandering Warriors", is the very essence of a musical call to adventure, from its soaring opening glissando and trill over a fanfare that immediately seizes the listener's attention to a triumphant march that conjures up images of heroes marching into the fray.
"Wandering Warriors" is creatively re-mixed into many other themes, including the stark and serious castle theme,which conveys just the right shades of ceremony and gravitas.
The dramatic "Ready for War", which also starts with a variation on the melody from "Wandering Warriors" before spinning off in its own direction, is a battlefield theme sure to get your blood pumping for the task ahead.
The shrine theme provides a deliciously haunting backdrop to some of the game's darker levels, including the secret post-credits bonus battle.
And like its predecessor, Shining Force II has a frantic, urgent final battle theme that helps to hammer home just how much the fate of the world rests on victory in this confrontation.

Added DiffLines:

* ''VideoGame/ShiningForce'' follows in the tracks of ''VideoGame/ShiningInTheDarkness'' in delivering on the awesome music front.
** The snare drum-heavy [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R_LsIOpMMUg main overworld theme]] is the perfect backdrop for an army marching off into battle.
** Although the [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mG-iTo7fx-4 battle scene theme]] is a bit goofy at the start, it soon settles into an adrenaline-charged version of the game's [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=McP1infL22A main theme]] that conveys a definite sense of triumph.
** Among the battle themes, [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6x1EHA4F1b8 "Battle 1"]] is one of the less often used, but conveys the perfect balance of tension and adventure.
** [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kOeE-i3b-Vs "Battle 3"]] takes the basic melodic idea from the idyllic [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5qsihjw-Tok town theme]] and turns it on its ear into a harsh, nightmarish track.
** And [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BvGCUvfvcJc the final battle theme]] practically screams "The fate of the world hinges on the outcome of this fight! There's no turning back now - fight for all you're worth!"
