Hm, let me see if I can pull off a top 10...

10. Intro (TP)
9. Overworld (ALttP)
8. Mini-Boss Theme (WW)
7. Hyrule Field (OoT)
6. Clock Town - Day 2 (MM)
5. Light World Dungeon (ALttP)
4. Clock Town - Final Hours (MM)
3. Dragon Roost Island (WW)
2. Flute Boy's Song (ALttP)
1. The City in the Sky (TP)

This list is very loose considering making any sort of "top" list for things I love (i.e. music and video games) is always very hard, so don't murder me if there's a song that you think I'm missing. >_>

Seriously though, The City in the Sky is amazing. That dungeon is one of my favorites in any game, period, the music being about half the reason (the Double Clawshot being the other half =P).

As I always say whenever Zelda music is discussed, needs more Forest Temple, OoT. That's my favorite of all time, and it's amazing. I'll come up with more later.

The song that is played if you wait to long on the TP title screen is awesome so is the cinema.

Ballad of the Windfish is the best GB Zelda song ever. As for console games. I like all the melodies for OoT. Perdue of Light is probably my most favorite out of them all.

I think we did this recently in the Zelda Thread, but I'll go ahead and assemble a new list:

10. Kokiri Forest
9. Potion Shop
8. Stone Tower Temple
7. Twilight
6. Snowpeak
5. Inside the Deku Tree
4. Gerudo Desert (TP)
3. Pirate's Fortress
2. Forest Temple (OoT)
1. Spirit Temple

Dragon Roost Island's theme is pretty awesome, as well as the Great Sea's theme song (and the theme some for Molgera!)

Gotta love Molgera.

I really don't get what's to love about the Molgera Battle theme. So many people share an obsessive love for it, and I can not stand it at all. Please enlighten me as to why so many of you enjoy it.

This.

Seriously, I have it as, like, the least-used song on My Music in Brawl. :laugh:

Dude, Molgera's theme is killer. You gotta love the instruments... flute, some kind of rattler thing, and I think a steel drum.

It's my favorite Boss music in Zelda.

Really, there is no way to tell someone why they like a piece of music -- you either like it or you don't.

People say Pokemon Mystery Dungeon (R/B) sounds like elevator music, yet I still like it a bit. Just something to it.

I like elevator music. :(

I remember an old OC Remix track by bLiNd (that's his username) called Temple Trance. If only I could upload it to Hyrule Temple...

In other news, an Oracle of Ages remix project known as "Essence of Lime" is back in motion after an almost 50 day hiatus.

I've heard of that OC remix, too!! I think it's music from Forest Temple from OoT.

@Spire, regarding Molgera's theme, that flute was really infectious to my ears, and now I can hear it all the time whenever I play Brawl!

No, Temple Trance is a remix of the dungeon theme from AoL. There's also Temple Trippin', which remixes the same song. Both are pretty great, and so is the source. Best part of AoL for me.

Also, the Song of Healing piano version in MM is beautiful. They play it at all the best, most moving parts of the game, and it makes the moments pretty powerful.

Mmm. If there's one thing good about AoL, it's the fact that it still has the awesome music we all know and love.

How many people here have actually listened to "Link's Awakening"'s music? In my opinion, that has the best music in Zelda history. Even for a Gameboy game it's flippin' amazing.

LA has an amazing soundtrack. The Face Shrine themes (north and south) are especially amazing, as are Tal Tal, the BotWF, and so much more. It also has my absolute, hands-down favorite version of the main Zelda theme, which is plays during the title screen. While it's been done many times before and since, that one just sticks with me. Because it's in the GB midi form, or whatever it is, it's very simple, but it's also perfect. I could go off an an entire fanboy stream about LA and all, but I'll just leave it at that.

At least I'm not the only one! Haha!

Link's Awakening mainly did focused on music due to the story. From collecting all the sacred instruments to Marin, Wart (The singing frog), and Manbo (The singing Sun Fish). I love the little tune you get when you make a new file and name it in all caps ZELDA. It made me so hyped to play the game.

Tal Tal Heights FTW! The Brawl remix did it justice, but I like the original, too. This is the only game for the gameboy game which really took its music beyond primitive 'beeps' for me.

Eh, I never really liked the Ballad of the Windfish that much either.

Oh Clownbot. You poor, poor soul. To be born with ears that are apparently defective like that, it's so tragic. I kid, but it is a really good song.

Defective Clownbot! Must terminate the defect!


I love this song! It's melody is haunting and beautiful. But perhaps it's because of the system the song is on. Or do you just not like the melody? :mad088::mad088::mad088:

No, don't get me wrong, it's okay (especially when you're trying to get to sleep), I just find it.... kind of boring.
