Heaven [Persona 4] [w/Lyrics] - Favorite Video Game Music #14 -

The lyrics keep mentioning “that tune”... “Every day’s great at your Junes”

I completed the vanilla version 7 years ago and this knowledge made me question my knowledge even further.

[@diablogaming8095]

To support this, it mentions "played all day with my eyes closed" and in the game, she actually had her eyes closed every single time she sang it

[@BeefNuggetStew]

DiabloGaming she drowns out all the bad stuff with music She doesn’t forget about the memories of her mother, she just prevents herself from being too distraught by thinking of Yu/Dojima and listening to Junes theme This song is supposed to convey Nanakos feelings on her mother

[@EmpressSectonia]

I didn't expect Nanako to not have a Shadow but it's makes sense cause she is just a little girl with her personality still in development.

[@shinigamimaster4708]

that is true. Nanako is still a child who hasn't done anything in her life yet so no voices of other people saying bad things about her can be heard. And since that's the case, that's why she doesn't have a shadow. No negative stuff, no shadow self manifestation.

[@rezahydra]

@Shinigami Master That’s not all, listen to the lyrics. It isn’t that they can’t be heard, it’s that she’s blocking them out with her favorite tune and closing her eyes... “Every day’s great at your Junes!”

[@kassandraodessa2633]

Nanako's memories of her mom I always cry in that dungeon

[@GizmoHey]

Same

[@MetallicGold]

It’s her personal view of what heaven is gonna look like when she can meet with her mom. It’s depressing to have someone that age go through hell like that. But she’s always positive and always loving others in her life. It’s more relaxing knowing that she can accept those hardships and learn from it.

[@kassandraodessa2633]

I always thought that its her mom singing the theme song to that level

[@MetallicGold]

Kassandra Odessa Some people say that’s her Honestly I’m gonna agree that. I mean everyone’s gonna go through loss in their life, sooner or later, and trying to come to senses with that, it can be hard.

[@BeefNuggetStew]

Matthew Durham don’t forget heaven also manifested from Namatame’s messiah complex

[@WorldwideHero]

I think that the tune and songs the lyrics are talking about are the Junes theme. Multiple times there have been situations where the Junes theme makes her feelings go flip-side, as reflected in the sentence; "Music keeps on turning me from the words that hurt my soul, removing doubts from my mind." And "finding ways through the favorite tune played all day with my eyes closed" And the door she mentions is how Ryotaro rarely comes home, as reflected in the sentence; "Those long days passing by from that door" I'm making this at 1:30 AM so just tell me if this was obvious to some lol

[@stevenpham1044]

I thought the “long days passing by from that door” was a reference to her mom. Who’s never home, because she can’t be. But the dad makes sense as well.

[@christianc1120]

It kinda was obvious since in game they Nanako herself mentions she sings the junes then because it makes her happy and forget the bad stuff

[@victorhugoHawk]

Now time to tell them "Don't take my dream" i think she's saying to the thoughts about her mother because it can cause imsomnia to her.

[@_dt1230]

Yu Narukami I’m talking about the song something about hearing throw your mask away in the final boss just makes you not want to fight Maruki

[@rezahydra]

I’d say it’s up there for beauty, but there’s a certain P3 song I’d put above it. Otherwise this is almost correct.

[@yeasstt]

Yu Narukami/jmdnyc14 nah P5 is an objectively amazing game and the only reason people hate on it is because it's popular. It's not as good as P4, but is much better than P3 and P1. I haven't gotten the chance to play P2 though. P5 has easily the best combat system, best mechanics, best dungeons, and some of the most interesting boss fights in the series. It's music is also incredible, though I prefer P4 soundtrack likely due to nostalgia. P5R took an already amazing game and just made it better.

[@lvtheartist5915]

I loveeee how Japanese music (and Korean, and probably any non-English language for that matter) have melodies clearly phrased for Japanese syllables and then they translate to English, causing the phrasing in English to sometimes sound rushed or incomplete despite probably sounding perfect in Japanese. That little off-put vibe really works sometimes, especially in the verse here during the "those long days" it sounds technically off but it adds so much more.

[@yeasstt]

This music was in the Japanese version too as far as I'm aware. It was written in English, and the phrasing and timing is stylistic

[@mikerojano7305]

@@yeasstt Oh, no yeah, I meant that I'm assuming the lyrics are first written in Japanese to convey what they want to say and then they translate to English, I know it was a conscious effort on them to have it all be in English, seemingly to not distract Japanese players from what I've heard. It's not just in Persona that I hear this, I just think they write melodies with Japanese lyrics in mind and then translate to English.

[@yeasstt]

Mike Rojano it's possible. The lyrics to some of the songs make no sense

[@fearedjames]

The actual thing is that Japanese music is based on fitting morae (kinda like syllables) to the intended sounds, legibility be damned. Its not rare to see music that just cuts the last part of a word off and plops it awkwardly at the start of the next line. This is considering horrible in English music, due to cultural and basic ways English works, but since they don't have that, you get this weird sounding effect when the Japanese write English songs.

[@TheAussieJPLoco93]

Of course the dungeon with the best music happens to be the one you're desperately hauling ass through to save sweet precious Nanako

aw shi here we go again

[@rezahydra]

This is the best part of this game. I love this game to death but despite that, this is what I see as the best part, especially in Golden which is the worst of the enhanced editions not counting The Answer story for P3FeS. That said, this isn’t about FeS, this is about the second best base Persona game in the modern trilogy. Everything from the buildup to Adachi and Namatame, the mysterious letters, the fact that they actually made Nanako 100% die for good in one of the bad endings, and just the fact she temporarily flatlines at all... Not to mention Teddie’s whole arc after AND the dungeon itself being the second best in the game, with the only one I’d argue better being Magetsu Inaba. To top it off, it has the best dungeon music in any Persona game that isn’t just symbolic, but great to listen to and was properly made unlike some songs in 4 and 5.

[@Mojo1356]

I disagree with Teddie’s arc. I honestly hated that part so much since he is just blatantly ignoring his friends even after they have told him at least 4 times that they accept him for who he is- that he was always welcome to the team. I was already annoyed by the fact that Teddie’s arc throughout the story was essentially the same tune sung 4 times with no real difference of any kind, but this just makes Teddie look like an inconsiderate asshole. I honestly think Teddie has the worst arc in the Persona series. I do think that this is otherwise the best part of the game from a narrative perspective... but from a gameplay perspective? Yikes!!! This is the low point!!!! Enemies spam moves that cause seal and exhaustion to the point where you’re wasting a lot of time just trying to keep your party members able to attack and perform all out attacks, and the namatame boss is the absolute worst boss in the game bar none.

[@Mojo1356]

That said, I’d take Golden over FES personally (like hell would I trust the Ai to do my battles for me). I still think 3 Portable is better though barring how Tartarus is a mess. While this isn’t even in my top 5 favorite dungeon themes from the series, this is easily the best dungeon theme in this particular game though, which isn’t saying a lot though because the dungeon themes in general are pretty lame.

[@rezahydra]

@@Mojo1356 I’m actually shocked you struggled in Nanako’s. Most people either struggle during Rise or Mitsuo’s parts then start steamrolling through everything. I was stuck on Mitsuo for way too long.

[@Mojo1356]

@@rezahydra Mitsuo’s was annoying because I had to backtrack for the orbs, but I just mowed through the enemies no problem because they were so slow and had no chance to attack me. It was also at that point in the game where Izanagi got his God’s hand thanks to shuffle time’s magician card. Rise’s gave me a bit of trouble to since enemies hit like trucks at a certain floor, but it’s nowhere near as bad as Heaven. Meanwhile, enemies are way faster in Heaven compared to Naoto’s dungeon, and they spam attacks attacks that cause the most obnoxious status effects in the game like seal or exhaustion. It’s not like other dungeons where they had a few enemies that occasionally used a move that inflicted something like sleep or poison- no. Heaven is littered with enemies that want to make sure you can’t even use your Persona. Not to mention that Heaven was the point in the game where rare enemies start having counter while being immune to magical attacks besides almighty moves that you most likely don’t have at this point in the game aside from Naoto’s megido, which cannot be used to effectively take out rare enemies with how fast they run away... and I game overed a few times because of that since rare enemies reflect Izanagi’s God’s hand more than once.
