    i think the point of the music is to capture the tone, emotion, atmosphere, and culture etc of the game

    people, when exploring, are always going to want to be mounted. because its faster, and if you run in to danger (especially in an area you've never been) you can get away faster, etc.

    so you have the option to either
    walk -> hear the music, take in the atmosphere, but also gimp yourself
    or stay mounted -> crap all over the atmosphere

    you are basically overriding the culture of the game in favor of the chocobo song. you want to be able to explore the zone and take in the atmosphere, but the chocobo music fucking ruins it to be quite frank. visiting coerthas for the first time, seeing those gorgeous rock formations and hearing that melancholic strained violin, then you mount up and the chocobo song cannibalizes all of that splendor.

    the chocobo song doesn't accurately portray where people's minds are, or what their psychological state is like. and ultimately this fucking song is crapping all over the feeling of exploration.

    chocobo song should be only used for the main chocobo quest and when you first get your chocobo, and doing very closely chocobo-related activities, like racing them, feeding them, breeding them, etc.

    when exploring, yes, you are on a chocobo, but that is not the feeling that is or should be prioritized.

    stop putting us in this awkward position where we have to talk shit about chocobo music
