5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful music to a beautiful movie!, October 6, 2005

By	Katrina N. Jones "Silver Phantom" (Missouri) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This album is more than anyone could expect from Nobuo Uematsu, the one that does most if not all of the music for the Final Fantasy game series!

As if straight from the movie, you can replay each scene in your head to this music. Coming on two discs, not only does it have the piano version of Tifa's theme, Aeris's theme, and the fighting song, it also has the remix version of J-E-N-O-V-A and One Winged Angel from the movie! A lot of the songs have guitar parts in it, but also the choir like singing in the background.

This is the entire list track, the Japanese titles translated to English:

Disc 1:
1. Opening
2. The Promised Land
3. Beyond the Wasteland
4. Sign
5. Tifa's Theme [Piano Version]

8. Water
9. Materia
10. Black Water
11. Aeris's Theme
12. Battle in the Forgotten City

5.0 out of 5 stars FFVII - Nobuo Uematsu THE BEST, December 16, 2006

By	Deus_Ex_Lemur "Eric" (San Francisco, CA) - See all my reviews

Nobuo Uematsu is a composer I wish everyone could listen to. FFVII AC soundtrack is just incredible as everyones posted. Fans of FFVII will be taken back in time, to both the game and movie. Nonfans too can appreciate the music!

Nobuo just is a talented composer who can create any type of music fantastically, this track ranges from classical, gospel, hard rock, techno, operatic, just... he does any genre with ease.

This music and FFVII itself has a special place for me, and the music was at the forefront to make the story, characters and experience be unforgettable. Of course playing the game itself I am more emotionally attached to the music and even movie... All the characters themes, everything is here. Mostly from the game, there are original stuff here tho.

WORTH MENTIONG personally... (ending in my favorite on 2nd CD, "Cloud Smiles"

FIRST CD -

2. Promised Land - just great, gospel like, always inspiring and solemn at the same time.

3. Beyond the Wasteland - watch your house rumble! The bass beats during the first half are great. Then it turns into a great action set, gypsie like driving song, always fun to listen to!

4. (piano themes) Aerith's, Tifas... because beautifully done on piano, always takes me back to game. Just wonderful pieces by themselves, I mean Aerith, come on! =)

5.) Battle in Forgotten City - such a percussive, bass driven piece with rock and choir and Herman like violins. I can play this one over and over so fun and great.

2nd CD -

Divinity I - alwyas gives me shivers. Classic Nobuo deep choirical, operatic cinematic classical orchestral action!

Divinity II - Like I. But inpsiring as cloud flies high to save the day... and then Aerith's theme at the peak, just always gets me.

MY FAVORITE - CLOUD SMILES - This purely because it effects me emotionally everytime, takes me back to game, and then end of AC... Aerith such a big thing, just seeing how it ends now, makes you happy, and you feel exactly what Cloud does as she leaves to the music.

ANYWAYS... Long rant but just one of those things, as a fan of anything, the music makes it all come alive for ya! Anything that sends you back in time, effects you on an emotional level is worth raving about!

Nobuo Uematsu - as Barret would say, "You are the man!"

5.0 out of 5 stars Uematsu-san does it again, October 8, 2005

By	Adam Owen (Franklin, Indiana United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Finally, a Final Fantasy movie soundtrack. After hearing so many versions of One Winged Angel. This version takes the cake especially with the new lyrics and adding The Black Mages into it as well.

The other songs are nicely well done. Although some of them are on different albums.

Buy this CD! It's worth every dollar.
