What's your favorite Zelda song? :D

Hallo UU!

I've been playing ALOT of Zelda lately (mainly TP and Wind Waker), and have become re-intoxicated by the gorgeous music in it. The legend of Zelda series is known far and wide for it's amazing compositions by Koji Kondo. Just some really great tunes.

So I ask you, UU, what is your favorite Zelda song? :D
and for additional points, what instrument do you prefer to hear it played on? :3

Mine's "Ballad of the Wind Fish", I once heard a harp version that just blew me away!
 
Have you heard this version? It was cut from SSBB along with some others . A "lost track", as they're called.

My favorite LoZ song is the Kakariko Village theme.

Here's the Twilight Princess version. Not as good as a piece of music, but very much captured the feeling of the new Kakariko Village.

Koji Kondo perfectly captures the feeling with his compositions. Gerudo Valley was soooo amazing.

Sorry, I couldn't just post one. Thanks for posting this thread! I am obsessed with LoZ!
 
I don't really have a favorite song, but I do have a favorite main theme version. It's the one from Four Swords/Link's Awakening on GBA - the Four Swords title theme. It's only 20 seconds long and then it loops but I was floored the first time I heard it coming out of that little handheld. It was a great example of what the sound chips can do - there was a such a wide range of orchestral sounds. I especially like the horns and drums at the end of the loop. Here's a link, but it sounds way better on the handheld:

I love the track "KAKARIKO VILLAGE" from OCARINA OF TIME (N64)
I think it should be this one here (i've got no sound at the moment)

It's super relaxed and it reminds me of the time when i was playing this masterpiece (i mean the videogame ;) )
 
Link, that hidden track is boss! Bring to mind an epic journey!!! XD

Kissing, I've actually been to your channel a few times and seen your oc vids. You're very good! :)
 
Oh wow I forgot the Termina Field theme. Such an awesome theme for the field type area.
 
I love New Wave Bossa Nova, Kakariko Village, and Saria's Song..
Those are my favorites haha
 
On a complete sidenote Sean, that is the most epic signature ever conceived!!!
And I love Kakariko from TP, the flute in it is absolutely gorgeous!
 
lol. Best games I played on gamecube were the zelda titles and Melee. It was such an underrated console, which seems to happen with all the nintendo consoles these days. :c
 
My favorite will always be the original Legend of Zelda title screen music. I get chills every time I listen to it.

I love all the music that has come over the years. But nothing seems to some close to that original theme.

I really want to play it on the harmonica… I have yet to see a video of someone doing that well. The piece sounds really good on the harmonica but is extremely difficult to play correctly (it has lot's of accidentals and those require considerable skill on a diatonic harp).

I think every harmonica playing Zelda fan tries this piece only to be horribly frustrated. (There are at least three different tabs to it on HarpTabs.com, all wrong).

Playing that well on the harp is one of my three lifetime musical goals.

One day.
 
I also forgot all about the termina feild theme when i heard the intro a smile came to my face. I have to say The song of storms remix u posted is veryy epic. Ive listened to more LOZ music than any other game hands down.

I have to say though dragon roost island frm the wind waker is my fav song in the whole series. Although it is exceptionally hard to pick a fav that song is deffinitly it.
heres a link

I like the way you think! Out of all the gamers I know, I am one of only a few who actually played through Majora's Mask without giving up, so Termina means a lot to me also :)

The Dragon Roost Island theme is really brilliant, I wasn't so much of a fan of Wind Waker but some of the music was just excellent. Glad they used it in SSBB :cool:
 
I love Gerudo Valley, and it is super fun to play. All of the Ocarina of time music is classic though
I also really liked a lot of the music from windwaker, particularly the end credits song and the dragon roost island theme
 
My favourites have got to be Zelda's lullaby, Clock Town Theme (which was the first song I learnt properly on piano), and the main theme from Wind Waker that plays while you're sailing the ocean.
