My four favorite video game lyrical songs are from Final Fantasy 8 and The Legend of the Mystical Ninja: Starring Goemon.

Liberi Fatali,
Eyes on Me,
Ganbare Goemon Theme,
I am Impact.


Especially Liberi Fatali and I am Impact. What do you guys like?

btw, I can't find a list of lyrics for the Ganbare Goemon theme.

[Grubdog]

Billy Hatcher & The Giant Egg - Ending

[Speevy]

Well they're finally here, performing for you...

:lol

 

[Dead]

From recently:

Snake Eater.

From this gen:

Pain and Kokoro from xenosaga are probably on the top of my list, and I cant remember anything else. But those 2 are outstanding.

[el jacko]

I may be completely wrong about this, but don't the lyrics in "Liberti Fatali" mean absolutely nothing?

Here are some of my personal favorites:

Metal Gear Solid 3 - Snake Eater
Ace Combat V - The Unsung War
Beyond Good & Evil - Akuda House Propoganda
Metal Gear Solid - The Best is Yet to Come

Also, just about everything vocal from KD rocks (except, like, maybe one song).

 

[GaimeGuy]

Well they're finally here, performing for you...

:lol

Haha, how could I forget the DK Rap? :lol

I remember when I first heard that, I was like "What....the...fuck?! :lol"

 

[Kumiko Nikaido]

"I Am The Wind" - Ending theme from Castlevania: Symphony of the Night.

Haters of this song begone!

[Greenpanda]

I may be completely wrong about this, but don't the lyrics in "Liberti Fatali" mean absolutely nothing?

Nah, most of the lyrics do (though they're in Latin, of course ). The main "Fithos Lusec Wecos Vinosec" phrase is just gibberish, though (it's an anagram of "SUCCESSION OF WITCHES" and "LOVE")

 

[demi]

Hikari (KH)

Man I totally forgot that song! Such a sexy song.

 

[el jacko]

Nah, most of the lyrics do (though they're in Latin, of course ). The main "Fithos Lusec Wecos Vinosec" phrase is just gibberish, though

Yea, I figured they were either in Latin or gibberish pretending to be Latin; I just remember hearing something to that effect at another forum.

 

[Greenpanda]

A lot of the good ones have already been mentioned, but I have to tip my proverbial hat to both Xenogears songs ("Stars of Tears" and "Small Two of Pieces), "1000 Words" from FF X-2, and "Song of Mana" from Legend of Mana.

But, yeah, KD songs > pretty much all other game songs

 

[el jacko]

Hey, how could I forget Napple Tale - Dreams in a Pie? Napple Tale music rocks.

 

[Kumiko Nikaido]

All the catchy tunes from Sonic R!

- "Can You Feel The Sunshine?"
- "Living In The City"
- "Back In Time"

totally awesome. I love this song.

the JGR/JSR one you mentioned is good, too.

 

[lunlunqq]

And several songs from that Namco dictionary game (PSP)!!!

Like "This is a song for TV games" (donno if this is the name...)

BTW, I already have a mp3 for the "TV song", but I also like the "theme song" (the name of the game is in that song) a lot and wonder if someone could give me a place to download that song. You have my thanks in advance!

 

[Guns N' Poops]

The end theme from Chaos Legion, "Fly" by Liv, I think it was called :lol

[Jonnyram]

Wow, you played through it? You are my hero

The game got a lot better as you progressed through it and the final boss was actually a really tough fight. Still, I can see why people wouldn't play it for long. On a similar note, I vote for "Tsukiru", one of the ending themes for Drag-on Dragoon.

 

[Louis]

Birthday cake from Jet Set Radio Future :lol .
