Nostalgia value has a lot to do with it. There's a lot of great music in XI though. I think Thanalans theme holds up pretty strongly against most of the starting zone themes.

I think my favorite is La Noscea. But have you heard the music for raid bosses? that stuff is freakin amazing

It gets me so pumped every time. =D

But if we're gonna recommend some musical taste: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UMosUlU5Jg8 I would love to get into some epic Garlean Infantry battles with this type of song in the background.

NO WE CAN'T HAVE FFXI IN OUR FFXIV!!!!!

This is probably the best music to come from XI in awhile, and imo, Garuda's song completely trumps it.

Xiv is lacking in orchestra which is better than synth music ( my personal opinion ). What would be awesome is if they mixed orchestra into their new synthetic style music

Battle Themes are certainly not Mizuta's strong point. However, zone and scenario themes by Mizuta are easily amongst the best composed in video games.

Mizuta doing the zone music for 2.0. Uematsu doing the battle music, and both doing the scenario music.
Shame Uematsu is no longer a composer for the game anymore, though.

If by XI's "spirit", you mean the videogame-y, synthesizer-like quality to the music, then I honestly hope that doesn't make it over to XIV. With that said, I really don't want to rain on this parade, because all of you (OP included) are posting some excellent tracks. I'd definitely like more tracks like this, but using XIV's sound technology.

With that said, I think XIV has a great soundtrack, and it's only getting better. The composers (all of them!) are doing a terrific job, and I hope we hear more tracks in the future from each one. I'd also like to give a little shout-out to sound director Masayoshi Soken, who has done an excellent job ensuring that the new content has an inspired, cohesive soundtrack to go along with it. In my opinion, the man is a god!

FFXI' Original's music wasn't that good- but it got better and better with every expansion. I'm a fan of TOAU's music the most myself.

All of FFXIV's music is rock solid, though a few of the tracks have kind of a generic feel to them- Still well done though.

Will there be any music with FFXI's spirit in it?

I hope not because this is FFXIV.
