Well, one I can...
-sees that "Aria di Mezzo Carattere" is not on the list-
-is utterly shocked-
...Um... Well, I can say that "Dancing Mad" is the best Final Boss theme(s) I've ever heard.
-walks away, shaking his head-

- FFI ~ Dead Music
- FFIV ~ Red Wings
- FFIV ~ The Final Battle
- FFV ~ Musica Machina
- FFV ~ The Decisive Battle
- FFVI ~ Dancing Mad
- FFVI ~ Kefka

I haven't played any Tactics games, so, can't comment on those.

Only two from me, but consider them regardless:

"what the complete, unabridged, 4k ultra HD fuck with bonus features" - Mark Von LewisI like Sending a Dream into the Universe, Dancing Mad, Jenova Absolute, Dark Messenger, and Trisection.
That being said, I am disappointed by your list's lack of Force Your Way, Shinra Theme, Cosmo Canyon, The Landing, Liberi Fatali, Loss of Me, You Are Not Alone, Skirmish of the Silver Dragons, Ahead on Our Way, JENOVA, Vamo Allo Flamenco, Hunter's Chance, Hymn of the Fayth, and Esper Battle.

- FF 5 Musica Machina
- FF 5 The Decisive Battle (Exdeath battle theme)
- FF 6 Dancing Mad
- FFTA The Road We Both Aim For
- FFTA Unavoidable Destiny
- FFTA Undefeated Spirit
- FF 10 Normal Battle
- FF 4 Red Wings
- FF 3 Battle 2
I'd pick those and some others.
I am disappointed by the lack of anything from FF 2, 8, 11, 12, 13, 14, TA 2...
and JENOVA, the theme immediately before One-Winged Angel (I think it's called "Birth of a God")...

"Only now, after being besieged by a flock of talking ponies, did he really understand what he'd lost. "Huh. I haven't been by Co N in long time. Maybe I should enter as well.
Taking a break from FE1, for the FE8 draft instead@ Nyarly and Ana: Sorry, I didn't like Aria de Mezzo Carattere that much. It was nice, but I prefer the version of the same theme tune that's in Celes's theme anyway.
Anyhow, there are lots of great tracks that I've had to skip over anyway. Celes's theme is one of them. Justification is that I don't quite like the bIII bII I progression at the end.
@ Longcoat: I said I wasn't taking any new suggestions.
@ Lizard Bite: haven't played FF 8, Shinra theme was meh, Cosmo Canyon almost made the cut no wait that was Great Warrior, haven't played FF 8, haven't played FF 8, haven't played FF 9 (why do you think there are only two songs from there? I was considering including Eyes on Me, too...), the track called "You Are Not Alone" I know is from Castlevania, nice name but I don't know the track, did you mean FF 7?, I like JENOVA but the loop transition has always bugged me (incidentally, I've come up with a better transition that I just need to write down and record on piano sometime), dunno FF 9, dunno FF 9, dunno FF 10, dunno FF 12.
@ Awe Striker: I haven't played 8, 11, 12, 13, 14, and TA 2, and have barely sampled 2. Besides, why aren't you complaining about the lack of L2, L3, MQ, Adventure, Crystal Chronicles, and Dissidia?
For future reference: the FF games I've played to a significant extent: 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, MQ, TA. (I just didn't like MQ's music.) I've also seen TSW, but that's not a Final Fantasy game.
Also, I feel I should promote these:
I'm surprised to not see FF 4's "Into the Darkness".
It Just Bugs MeAnd here:
There's also a DS version, but it doesn't have awesome of a beat as the NES version, so the NES version is better, in my book.
^^ I didn't enjoy that track much. In fact, I didn't really like the FF 4 soundtrack that much; I much prefer FF 5's.
Two more, since I just ran across this:

And this:

Oh by the way, sorry to triplepost, but I want to make something clear:
Don't like my selection? Well, YOU CAN SUBMIT YOUR OWN LIST TOO! by joining the Caves of Narshe fora and joining the game! Everyone's invited!

Into the Darkness is probably my favorite Final Fantasy series song.
I think I'll leave the contest to other FF fans :).
It Just Bugs Me
For this contest at the Caves of Narshe, I need to submit a list of 15 great Final Fantasy series tracks (from any game with "Final Fantasy" in the title).
That means I need to pare down this list:
This list is...quite a few more than 15. Any suggestions?
(No, I will not be adding new entries. Entries may be spotty for games I haven't played. I don't care. I already have too many.)
