* [=T260G=] [[https://youtu.be/uAqB1lOiH6A?si=GERGGcec94s-JVUv Last Battle theme]] is clearly one of the most unique of the final boss themes. Giving more of an always active puzzle fight going on.

* [[https://youtu.be/4db-Z5voJrY Emelia's final battle theme kicks ass too]].

* T260G [[https://youtu.be/uAqB1lOiH6A?si=GERGGcec94s-JVUv Last Battle theme]] is clearly one of the most unique of the final boss themes. Giving more of an always active puzzle fight going on.

* [[https://youtu.be/8osQQTuq6Yo The Seven Heroes Battle]] It's a bombastic theme with an excellent buildup and its intensity symbolizes the Seven Heroes and how powerful they are and the sheer threats they pose.

%%

* [[https://youtu.be/-04R90u4BwU The Last Battle]]. Capturing the perfect theme of "This is it!", it builds up slowly before the utterly bombastic beat comes into play and it really shows that the very best battle theme was saved for last.

* Three awesome songs from the original in a row: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xIGs9srfIUk Battle Theme]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Q-d2E8nH3o The Fierce Battle]] (Boss theme), and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mKTB2lBWgh0 Creator: Final Battle]], each of increasing awesomeness.
%%* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nwIqWua7V1Y Hurry Up!, the BGM of the Sky World]].

%%* We have [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=04T-pUYN1bA Burning]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Teu4C5mS3oo Blood]].
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MFo3tcTIWd0&t= Dreadful Fight]], the game's boss theme. Intense, melodic, and always a pleasure to hear when the time comes for a showdown.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AHyHeZkjY5I Let it Begin]] (and the DS remix, now with [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8TIZbfSkG-M Power Violin]]) and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QQ3qvMxYCmg Save the World]], the last battle music ([[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4YspKeKk7Cc DS remake here.]])
%%* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P1l9HnshU7g The music of the remake sounds awesome as always.]]

* [[BigBad Xagor]]'s theme has to be one of the best [=BGMs=] of the series, and that's saying something with a series that had "Let It Begin" as a leitmotif. Heck, the entire last battle has awesome sounds -- starting as you're fighting "Sol" (the local God analogue), as he desperately tries to get you to do as much damage to him as you can before Xagor (the local EldritchAbomination) ''tears him apart from the inside out'' to get to you. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z1TAd7-EXSc#t=12s Starts here]], with Sol's slow, sad theme, switching into [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z1TAd7-EXSc#t=36s Xagor's theme]] around 36 seconds in. Pure awesome.
** Oh, and it's being remade. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TDA5XthEyKw Xagor's theme sounds amazing as always.]]
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hWuuVo85Z00 And apparently there's a second version.]]

* You managed to make it to [[TheDragon the minions]] and you're getting your butt kicked partly because [[NoExportForYou you don't know Japanese]]. But it's okay [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fo9I9LAb8pc because the music makes it sound awesome!]]

%%* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oNw8xYrPkdI Challenge to Pantheon]].
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f68DOPif7cQ Written Invitation to Death]] is rather fitting since you are fighting Death himself.
%%* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4xUfROU0Mt0 Wicked Melody]] which is used during the Fatestone battles.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LLZI_A16QvU To the Altar of Revival]], an unexpected but still great electronic piece used for the first half of the battle against Saruin.

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J-0MIqdqfMM This over-the-top number]] for the final battle with Saruin. Kenji Ito is awesome. (So is Tsuyoshi Sekito, as he was the one who arranged that AND played the electric guitar for it!)
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r9kQPXnhvtU Closed Heart]] which plays during Eule's death and Schiele reliving her memories.

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=th0DX3EErL0 Undersea (or Underwater) Palace]]. This is a stark contrast to the other dungeon themes, and the sheer beauty of the song is enough to make it a TearJerker.
%%* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tVJCCmEKstg 2nd Sadness Theme]], especially after Snowman's sacrifice in the fight against Aunas.

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FODQT0128FA Battle 5]] is considered one of the best, most intense Boss Battle tracks. It plays once during Asellus' scenario when fighting [=BatKnight=], but it plays in Red's scenario when you face [=MBlack=], ''all three of his forms''. One reason why Red's scenario often gets a JustHereForGodzilla treatment.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tomG4Z_CNyg Battle 4]], as well. The best part is that this is the theme that kicks in when you're fighting the [[Series/DoctorWho Time Lord.]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AkogqN_axMA Speaking of time...]]
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sx3UbTgOkgY Alkaiser's Theme]] reminds you of the traditional campy superhero theme.
** It was actually [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EgFJJSkaRGw remade by fans with lyrics thrown in]].
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bf-VjBP3dP4 One group remixed the remake, and made it into pure awesomeness.]]

%%* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lBaoMKoABlY Do the Words NO FUTURE ring a bell]]?
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4db-Z5voJrY Emelia's final battle theme kicks ass too]].
%%* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4E71uJp1x6Y Trick]]. (Heck, the entire soundtrack rocks.)

%%* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fuKaY4JnK7I Feldschlacht I]] and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2fifr8nwqwU Feldschlacht IV]].
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=65A8o7vMwVM Feldschlacht III]] is the best regular battle theme in the game, with its piano and percussion giving the song a unique tone to it and the battles it plays during a very atmospheric and moody tone to them, while [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8p28zth2e8U Feldschlacht II]] uses an organ sound to great effect.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UIVz5akeVow Todfeind]], an incredibly energetic piece whose tempo's never slows down, which plays for the final fight against the Megalith Beast which Wil Knights' party is running away from while escaping the glacier. This theme is also played when Ginny Knights' party faces the Water Anima Lord.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lBOAVEjfTnk Todesengel]] (translated from german as "Angel of Death"), the Egg's final boss theme which plays once its final form is revealed. If its first battle theme, ''Mißgestalt'', was hopeful, this theme is instead ominous, solemn and has a faster pace, with the piano's notes being played rapidly, giving to the whole piece a sense of urgency. By the time you reach that point, your party is certainly exhausted and running low on energy, and thus this song emphasizes perfectly how this part of the confrontation is the final stretch.
%%* There's also [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GEM-kM18WBc Besessnheit]] and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SEYwzoIBJJk Todfeind.]]

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d-g35kGdSKg The OVERTURE]], a very energetic song. Perfect for to play for starting on an EPIC JOURNEY. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jRO2mHgD9Ho Battle Theme 1]] is a remix of the Overture.

** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zDp4XPdiV2w Theme for Laura]]: A simple but lush character theme that fully opens up at around the minute point, where it turns impossibly gorgeous. A cliche to say, but it is spine-tingling.
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dGdd6astxMQ Theme for Cash]]: A simple but beautiful piano melody, backed up by woodwinds a little way through. A very direct and straightforward treatment of the melody, which is unusual for Hamauzu.
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y32TjBeQw50 Theme for Vent]]: A very relaxing guitar melody.

** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2v_AtBf7wW8 Battle 1]] is the perfect music for the first battles of the game. Just the beat and the violin in particular really get you pumped up.
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BQc3PQ45cFs Battle Theme IV]]: A tango-themed battle theme, complete with foot stomping. Attack your enemies in a way that would make Astor Piazolla proud!
** The final boss theme, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ElrkGHTMnAs BT "ultimate"]] manages to evoke a wide range of emotions, 'awe' being one of the most prominent ones. The final boss is fought in space. The song begins with some strings and atmospheric synth sounds. A heavy techno beat is added, with digital sounding synths in the background. And then comes the trumpet melody, which is amazing. It really uses the word "awesome" with its original meaning.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ndrbltZsF_I Enigmatic Scheme]] is a great, goofy, bouncy theme like few things Masashi Hamauzu has written. What sets Enigmatic Scheme apart is the slightly sinister tone. It sounds like it could be the AffablyEvil theme song. Other bouncy, cheerful themes of his include [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yRtROzcJkeI Judy's theme]] (mistakenly labeled as "Feel Uneasy About the Wonders" on the official OST release) and a Brief Respite from FFXIII.

The game's soundtrack was composed by none other than Creator/MasashiHamauzu and remains, to this day, one of his most notable soundtracks. It is unique for nearly all of its track names being in GratuitousGerman.
