A place for your favorite video game songs, OSTs, and remixes for games of all eras. Also, deep dives into their creation and composition.
Would appreciate composer names in either the title or the post, for recognition of their hard work.
Looking for a name, a game, or an album? Check out the Video Game Music Database over at VGMDb, or the Video Game Music Preservation Foundation at VGMPF.com!

Yea, it has a boldness to it, and making it the overworld theme really ties a lot of the disparate elements of the game together.
With how innovative the game was in bringing so many complex narratives to gaming, often for the first time ever, it was a lot of people's (mine included) first introduction to some of these complex topics as a child.
This song, repeating the whole game through, is the most unifying element.
