This one took a lot of work. In addition to having to select only 10 pieces of music from the franchise, I had to edit each segment individually. As with all of my Top 10's, I do NOT just transplant pre-existing trailers. I edit 99% of everything myself.
This is also a reupload--the first time I uploaded it, someone caught a huge mistake that slipped by me in my haste to finish this list before the weekend. So I removed that, fixed the mistake, and now you can enjoy this video in its final form.
Most of the music was taken from the '20020220' live album but a few pieces were taken from original soundtracks, 'piano collections,' and one piece is from a Black Mages album. Feel free to PM me if you want to know anything in particular.
As with all of my lists, this is largely based on my personal preferences and gaming experience. If one of your favorite tracks isn't on here, don't freak out. After all, why would I invest days of work making YOUR Top 10?
In terms of length, the total runtime of all 10 songs is around 46 minutes. I cut the songs/rearranged them to keep the length down but, as with all of my lists, I refuse to prematurely or unnaturally fade out.
Enjoy it, rate it, and leave a comment. As usual, I'll read every one.
Some people are wondering why I did not choose the 'Aria De Mezzo Carattere' from Final Fantasy VI. I love it to death, but I didn't think putting an Opera up against a bunch of single tracks was fair. I had also already paid tribute to the Opera scene in this video where I edited game footage to a live performance of the Opera. Also, I really really really love the song at #1. It just punctuated one of the most epic parts of one of my favorite games of all time, bringing everything to a magnificent and climactic close. I was also very interested in editing something to that particular piece.

Wow. That's the biggest exaggeration of all time. Seriously--how could you say something so insulting and stupid? It's not on the list because I don't like it.

ROFL Rammstein didn't do any songs on FFX. Otherworld the song which you are referring to was composed by Nobuo Uematsu with english vocals by Bill Muir.
