With each new generation of consoles, the series has climbed to new heights.
And who knows, maybe there’s an even better vocal track waiting at the end of Final Fantasy XV? We’ll just have to wait and see.The advancements in technology over the last 3 decades have allowed developers to achieve things that could only be dreamed of when the Final Fantasy franchise first debuted back in 1987. Furthermore, while the lyrical Opera “Maria and Draco” doesn’t actually contain vocals, it does a great job emulating them with the SNES’s sounds in the unforgettable moment from Final Fantasy VI. Final Fantasy XIV‘s themes for its Primals and many of Final Fantasy XIII– 2‘s boss battles also contain nice vocals as well. Several other really neat vocal themes include “Answers” from Final Fantasy XIV and the untranslated “Suteki da ne” from Final Fantasy X. Final Fantasy IX is such a wonderful game and this piece at the end just reminds you that everything you experienced was so remarkable. Not only that, but it really gives you the feeling that you’re in a theatrical play, another key theme of the story. It fits FFIX so brilliantly well and embodies much of what its story represented. This piece is just beautiful. While some people could make a strong case for another theme, I’d argue that “Melodies of Life” is the best composed vocal theme in the series. Were they fated to meet one another, or was it happen-stance? Will their relationship live on in a “melody” after they’re gone? Its lyrics describe not only Zidane and Garnet‘s relationship but the game’s theme of the meaning of life and death. However, motifs and elements of the song play throughout the game. “Melodies of Life” plays at the end of Final Fantasy IX.
