The Final Fantasy XIII trilogy will forever hold a special place in my heart.

[@Isoldemain]

I used to be a nerdy teen and listen to this song 10 years ago in high school when FF13-2 just came out. I loved it so much but the song fell into oblivion. Sure, sometimes we remember old songs that we were used to listen, but not this time. This song stayed quiet in my mind for a decade without doing the least effort to show up in a way or another. Yesterday I was scrolling through Apple Music looking for old games tracks and stumbled upon the FF13-2 OST, remembering that I was used to listen some of its tracks but forgot which ones. ‘New Bodhum’ I read. A familiar name. I press Play, the song starts and it slithers into my mind, bringing up memories of a much younger and naive self of me. Such is the Serendipity, or Sartre’s madeleine.

[@cldpt]

Same for me with Origa's out-of-this-world intro to Stand Alone Complex (and 2nd GIG's too!) - used to take 2 buses to my conservatory lessons and they would just soothe my soul on repeat!

[@sketchtheparadigmyork1217]

I used to listen to the 13 and 13-2 soundtrack on repeat when they came out. And then I’d listen to the lightning returns promotional trailer music on repeat. This trilogy had incredible music.

[@mewtkeys]

Same here dude I had business management my first period so I would plug my headphones in and just listen to this ost.

[@productivestruggle9489]

Huh. You made this same comment on the other version. Lol

[@jeremymcguire8186]

Honestly same

[@quwandathornton]

never understood the dislike for the game, this game was magical. The music, Landscaping, Storyline, characters. I do admit the fighting took ages, especially certain stages taking long to complete but! That's how Final Fantasy was and should be. The series were always a 3 CD type of game, full of storylines and such. The coming age of PCs kind of killed that wonder of course.

The story has hard to follow for some. You had to read these data entries. I like lore so I didn’t mind.

[@redmage.]

Origa had the voice of an angel. Rest in Peace.

[@LinkinVoider]

I didn't know the singer had died, this music will make sure to preserve her memory.

[@theMaxTero]

@@LinkinVoider Saddly, she died on 2015, almost 10 years ago. Even tho I hugely dislike this trilogy, the music slaps and she had a very unique voice! As you said, she will be forever remembered

[@IPITYTHEFOOLZ]

She sounds a little different on this one

This is perfect for waking up early in the morning in a hut on the beach in a small island with lots of people and children playing without a care in the world as the Suns hot and rising in the sky with the beautifully clear blue ocean and untouched jungle behind with the ocean breeze drifting over the beach and through the trees.

[@iAussieGuy]

Her voice was super ethereal, this game had such an amazing soundtrack and heavenly singing. This is probably some of the prettiest game music I've ever heard.

[@Yitsul]

ORIGA's death was the first one I ever cried over, and I had an aunt die on my 10th birthday

[@jeremymcguire8186]

Do you remember the sound of the ocean waves?

[@ChimpRiot]

I would really rank this game's soundtrack among the series' best - alongside VIII and IX. I really felt on some ethereal journey through time.

[@xavierrenegade]

how could you not mention VII?

[@ChimpRiot]

@@xavierrenegade VIII was my first FF when I got a PlayStation. I didn’t play VII until many years later and never had the nostalgia for it that others do. I love the epic and more orchestral VII-remake music though.

[@stormcutter59]

Oh my god she's dead?! No.....may she rest in heaven. Origa, thank you for your work. You won't be forgotten for me. Magnificent soundtrack, among my favorites.

[@AlexanderTrombetta3010]

Thanks ✌️

[@angelrivera4526]

One of the first things I do when a new final fantasy is coming out is try and listen to the ost. So when I heard heard that Origa had a track on it, I got excited as hell, and LOVED this song... And I'm just figuring out like 10 minutes ago that she passed away last year... 😢 RIP

[@Everlasting_Gobstopper90]

I've been replaying 13-2 recently and this music is as amazing as ever

I was SUPER impressed at how they placed the mix towards the end of the 'New Bodhum' so that the transition into the remix IS PERFECT!!!! I actually found it too perfect and had to check my ipod to figure out what they had done - sneaky ^^ but awesome!

I really need to get a newer console so I can get these games. All my friends just will not shut up about how good the trilogy is.

[@VideoGameStupidLC]

Theatrhythm Final Bar Line needs to add a feature where these tracks from XIII-2 that have both "Normal" and "Aggressive" mixes are incorporated into one song. Play this track in a FMS and it starts off Normal but then when you get into battle it transitions into Aggressive mix and back to Normal when the enemy is gone. Phantasy Star Online was able to do something like that over 20 years ago so no reason why it couldn't be done in Theatrhythm.

[@ShirkingSloth]

@TheTux94 It's actually both tracks together. The Aggressive Mix version starts around the 4:50 mark.

[@noslopdx]

This soundtrack is so good!

[@ViRiXDreamcore]

I kind of wish they didn't switch the music in battle and just let the aggressive mix play. It kind of makes more sense. Otherwise why even have it?
