    All the music from FF's are great. I'll list my favourite per game and go OTT on VI because it's my favourite.

    I - Matoya's Cave

    II - Emperor's Theme

    III - Crystal Tower (I'll be upset if this isn't remixed for XIV's Crystal Tower)

    IV - Zeromus

    V - Battle on the Big Bridge (I hope this gets used in XIV)

    FFVI has too many good tracks to list them all, but my personal favourites are Kefka's Theme, Dancing Mad, Terra's Theme, Cyan's theme. That's not to say that the rest aren't great, the entire OST for VI was a masterpiece. I'd talk about Slam shuffle, but Zozo? Never heard of it!

    VII - Overworld theme

    VIII - Liberi Fatali

    IX - Dark Messenger (oh god this song was so good)

    X - To Zanarkand

    XI - Ronfaure

    XII - Esper theme

    XIII - lol

    XIII-2 - I really enjoyed the Gilgamesh remix.

    XIII did have a great soundtrack. The Final Fantasy community fiercely clings to Uematsu — and with good reason, don't get me wrong — at the expense of the other composers who have worked on the series. All things considered, Hamauzu (who did all of XIII, as well as a lot of great tracks from X) is a better composer than Uematsu: texturally, harmonically, and structurally, he's a lot more sophisticated than Uematsu. But Uematsu writes stronger and more accessible melodies, and melodies are easier to latch on to for most people.

    Exactly. Don't get me wrong, Uematsu is amazing , but things do seem to get a bit more 'bland' and repetitive after a while. Hamauzu really does seem a lot more 'next gen' with his music and seems to offer more. Also, I love that the new soundtracks have a lot more vocals in them... they keep my attention more. Some new characters' theme songs are lyrical too, just offers a lot more depth in my opinion.
