Dvorak is most underrated composer of all time.. Prove me wrong.

Anyone who says the best composer isn't Beethoven, I question their judgement.. And my favorite is Chopin. 😊

The chorale I’m in did this song the first season I joined. When we did I just thought it was an African song. It wasn’t til we started working on Sogno di Volare for the upcoming season did I found out that it and this song were from a video game. So freaking cool.

My itunes picked up the music from the Civ4 install back in college and I would hear it while studying...

Human Civilization - Good ending

When the Machine outgrows the humans that built it.

1:37 Sam O'Nella Academy theme

Why does this make me think of bread and star trek......?

They should have just put this song in Mufasa instead of whatever garbage they made.

does anyone know where the flute (specifically the part at 6:12) is from? there is the exact same flute sound in a trailer for bloons tower defense 5, (kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z3vGh6R4jdxkl68) but the flute goes on differently than in here. is it sampled from something?

6:10 Aaa! Now i get it.

Civ IV sucks compared to Elden Ring

"...as beauty brings gladness to a weary heart." (C) Civilization 5 Cultular victory line

Just perfect.

I remember at the time of this games release finding there were -very- few games with menu music i actually liked listening to. Needless to say, I was utterly blown away.

what's incredible about it is that as a standalone piece it speaks to what it actually is, but at the same time i can see it being performed as some experimental elitist bullshit by a bunch of people wearing black turtlenecks somewhere in new york

Conclave 2024!

love how theres one warrior holding a club next to all the mecahnised farms

Now, everyone checks Santana's "El Farol", from the album "Supernatural"

It's predecessor have still not surpassed it

Greatest title screen in video game history!

🤕🎉😂

thinking about how fucked up it was that my 95% white high school choir did this song with very clearly african influences

Thanks for uploading! Two elements that make the original "Title Screen" my preferred version of this magnificent piece by Christopher Tin: *Tribal Percussion:* Much more pronounced/consistent, across the board, which I feel is vital to the spirit of the piece, adding a continual "local/tribal/grassroots" flavour and wonderful compliment to the epic Western tonality, chord progressions and dynamics. For example, the Kalimba/mbira instrument (0:24) is _completely_ gone in other versions (official and live). *Levels in General:* Example, the cascading motif in violins during the climax (2:19) is forefront, right there with the choir, and barely noticeable in others. Also, I feel the vocals are _slightly_ more subdued in this version, more "humble", a partner to the other sections then the main star.

Civ IV is still the goat. VII looks awful.

como no voy a decir que no tuve una infancia feliz si al regresar de la escuela sonaba este temazo

Heeey :)

Why this Music is not playing?

Goosebumps at 1:40 🥺

You have constructed a Coal Plant in Athens! Beginning work on Infantry...

This shit gets me PUMPED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Simpler times

Yes! The original is the best rendition of this song! There were/are many great ones for sure! But this one is it!

Lyrics: El grillo è buon cantore Che tiene longo verso. Dalle beve grillo canta. Ma non fa come gli altri uccelli Come li han cantato un poco, Van de fatto in altro loco Sempre el grillo sta pur saldo, Quando la maggior el caldo Alhor canta sol per amore. Translation: The cricket is a good singer He can sing very long He sings all the time. But he isn't like the other birds. If they've sung a little bit They go somewhere else The cricket remains where he is When the heat is very fierce Then he sings only for love.

this one always plays at the start of the industrial era for me

Praise Jesus!

I see 19th poor people working at dangerous industries with horribly low wage and children workers cleaning narrow chimnney. Average people have dinner for boiled potatoes. The unfortunate age just before revolution taking place.

Proof that the concept of a God is able to transcend all cultures through music.

Psalm 94 in Latin. Still sings in Catholic Church for funeral service; “The Office for the Dead”.

Sometimes I imagine a family saying good bye before and during a nuclear blast, and then some of they survived after the horrors comited by mankind... and then, there is nothing. "We won the war", "but what cost?"

Key change mofohhhhhh!

Audio got removed 😢

Me: anti religion, openly criticizing it's hypocrisy, indoctrination, and general harm of people and the harmful mass control it's had of societies throughout history and in modern day.. Also me: "BABA YETY ULIYE MBINGUNI YETU"

Hunger, disease, wars, barbarian invasions, and massive deaths followed the collapse of the Roman Empire... a bleak future awaited those who survived the fall of Rome over the next 300 years

hold me.

6:09 [From Darkness, Light]
