%%"Noteworthy" is word cruft and damning with faint praise. What's noteworthy about it? %% I'd like to comment that "Yume wa Owaranai" from Tales of Phantasia predates it as the first fully vocal track by three years, and "Pietro's Journey" from =PopoloCrois= Monogatari I also predates by two. So it's far from being the first fully voiced track in a JRPG.

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZRojZwOzTpc "Light from the Netherworld,"]] the background music to the opening movie. Incredibly eerie and chill-inducing. Even if you've never even seen the opening movie, you can tell just by listening to it that something inexplicable and unearthly is going on. And now the Orchestral version is out, edited into the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2HHLPmTb_3k Opening FMV.]]

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FsBwAb4ysGQ "One Who Bares Fangs at God"]] can ONLY be heard during the AntiClimaxBoss fight with [[spoiler:Urobolus/Miang]] even though it's one of the best songs in the game. Which serves to redouble on the final battle's [[SubvertedTrope subversive]] principle -- both the battle and the accompanying music are anything but the standard FinalBoss fare, for dramatic purpose.

* "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kBriJWTZctI Gathering Stars in the Night Sky]]" is sappy, but instantly endearing.


* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XvRKi5wSos0 Flight]] since whenever that music plays, you know a SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome is gonna happen. Even more awesome: It is the first (and currently only) ''Xenogears'' track to be featured on ''VideoGame/TheatrhythmFinalFantasy''.
** Flight's softer and more emotional remix, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5-NIKFQlLcU Gathering Stars in the Night Sky]], is more subtle and every bit as good.
