[@sroth2021]

Nicely stated.

[@robertadamsx2]

The perfect song to make a cinematic version of for a zelda movie just before the climax. Link mounts Epona, and rides off towards the castle to face Ganon, all the while dark world plays. That'd be legendary.

My 6 year old son was introduced to Zelda tears of the kingdom during a visit to his uncles house. He’s become borderline obsessed with everything related to the adventure of Zelda and Link. He is already making plans on which games he wants to play. I showed him links awakening and ocarina of time. So far he is more interested in the two newest games and links awakening. I’m trying to get him into ocarina of time, if for nothing else than the soundtrack. It was definitely one of the most played games of my youth. I’m glad to see all these songs up here. The lost woods melody, gerudo theme song, the windmill song, temple of time, and of course the theme song are all great but I used to fall asleep in the water cavern just listening to Zola’s domain for hours. And I’m surprised that eponas song didn’t make the cut either. Ocarina of time had an absolutely amazing soundtrack.Great list, though, there’s a lot of Zelda games I’ve missed so perhaps we will be catching up soon.

[@PianoMusicBros]

Glad you liked my video, OoT has indeed one of the best soundtracks, it's such a great game! Maybe they will make another remake to make it even more accessible to a younger audience.

The N64 soundtracks have to be some of my all time favorite Zelda tracks, and to me, the most definitive. It was a huge leap from the NES/SNES era to the N64, and with that came a wider range of freedom to create music with tones, sounds, and moods they could never create before with the limitations. Jaunty little tunes like the Lost Woods, Clock Town, and Hyrule Castle Town. Exotic, mesmerizing themes like Gerudo Valley and the Deku Palace. Lulling melodies like Lon-Lon Ranch and the Clock Tower’s Song of Healing. I adore the music that’s come out since then, but to me, nothing will ever be regarded higher than the N64 era.

The song of time imo perfectly reflects what The legend of Zelda is about. Its not some happy adventure like the overworld theme from The first Zelda, but is instead a lonely mission to save all of hyrule by stopping Ganon. It gets straight to the point and doesnt play around, empathizing the importance of Links quest.

[@brolytriplethreat]

Meh I disagree. The song itself in non-Ocarina format only really fits the Temple of Time itself. And also, Zelda never really feels about loneliness to me. Link's mission is important, but while things can get dark, there's always elements of whimsy and adventure to offset it at some point. Like, one of the bosses _in_ that game ends with two old ladies arguing about their ages and then ascending into the afterlife with halos. And Majora's Mask, one of the darkest Zelda games, is also the game that introduced _the hand in the toilet._ Zelda to me is a series about growing, both as a person and in ability. Botw and totk kinda failed at that by giving you everything from the start and also having most of the interesting stuff have already happened(totk does _slightly_ better in regards to the latter, but I miss linearity in the story.) But in other games, Link starts out as some kid in a village, finds themselves wrapped up in something bigger (preferably by choice and not "because destiny said so" which is a major gripe I have with the series), and has to step up and be a hero. Take Wind Waker. Link is an utter goof but by the end of the game he has the confidence and the tools to stand against Ganondorf.

Skyward Sword's OST is VASTLY underrated! I'm glad at least one song from the game made it onto the list, but every single bit of music in that game is utter perfection! (And I will always be a Skyward Sword defender until the day I die, regardless of what the majority thinks of the game)

[@Logicalleaping]

I agree it was Koji Kondo's best overall soundtrack for zelda (although Oot and MM are both masterclass as well). His final soundtrack for the series D':

[@finleymakee4850]

I too love skyward sword

[@carlosmark3214]

Faron woods theme slaps.

[@pacobatracio]

For a game that did not do that well and got mocked, I love that Spirit tracks got some love.

[@anrikurisuto4432]

Zelda music just hits differently. Even so, there is a clear tierlist, with OoT and MM at the top and ALttP and WW close behind. The original music of course, is something of its own.

[@ericforsyth]

Hard disagree on that "clear" tier list

[@thekleanupkrew8381]

That was the best composition for the fairy fountain I’ve heard for piano, amazing

[@StefenBruh]

We already knew lost woods was going to be #1. They knew what they were doing by making that absolute slapper the music for the starting area of one of the more popular titles in the series. Love the Zelda series, but Jesus Christ the sound track for ocarina of time is just so fucking elevated it's insane

[@raginglevi]

I still get surprised that the molduga theme isn't here only because it is an absolute banger

[@acario100]

No Molgera either which is equally a banger. Or the Guardian Chase theme. No bosses in general, mich makes sense mostly because that's where Zelda falls off but those are all really notable and surprising absences

[@carlosmark3214]

Chicka chicka chicka chicka

[@Dustbowl121]

Lost woods is always my favorite, but the windwaker mural song always gets me

[@wafflesaucey]

That Wind Waker track is great.

[@MrKneeV]

Once I heard the first 19 (and I was surprised by the order of a few of them), I knew Saria's Song had to be #1. It couldn't be anything else.

[@lukyrak]

Always brings me back into the childhood memories. So many great songs connected with it

[@Ragnara5799]

A Shame that Ballad of the Windfish didn't make it to the List. Anyway, great Video.

[@wayfarer1021]

Legendary soundtrack for a legendary series!

[@k3mori]

If you check the most replayed parts of the video, you can tell which song is really the most popular

[@mattkase8880]

I was surprised that Great Fairy Fountain wasn’t higher, but ig that’s my bias for playing link between worlds as my introduction

[@paulettedelard7225]

I Also liked the Overworld Theme of the legend of Zelda (1986)

[@IdentifiantE.S]

It's a classic

[@firedemon322]

GOD DAMN DEKUS PALACE GOES HARD I remember 11 year old me FINNALY getting how to play Majoras mask that shit was straight fire

[@jessygingles30]

I love that one too ❤

[@dolofonosesostrefis]

What I'm learning from this is that Ocarina of Time had a lot of bangers

[@DanikaShoru]

I adore how You used the colors from the games. It makes it identifiable and pretty to listen and see. Also, 4:40 13rd place is funny

[@beardedragonboi]

Don’t forget 12nd and 11st!

[@百鬼夜行-r4l]

サリアのテーマは納得だわ....いつ聞いても泣ける良い曲

[@caligura69]

7:46 Deep sensations touch me when I hear this song

[@brinstarmedia1411]

Wasn’t on the list but the palace theme to Zelda 2 is one of my all time favorite video game music tracks

[@carlosmark3214]

I agree especially with how little love I see it get.

[@thomashunt8818]

I’m so glad I grew up with these games

[@wariodude128]

Honestly surprised Epona's Song isn't on the list. Was probably in the #21 spot. Oh well.

[@tommapar]

Ahhh I'm trying to remember the name of that one song... I think it's got Ganon's leitmotif? or something? in it. It sound ominous and dark. It goes something like "Duuuh, ↗↘ dududuhh ↗du- ↘du- ↗du- ↘du- ↘duhhh ↘ Duhhh ↘ du-du-duh duh ↗ duuhh" It's killing me so I made it as detailed as possible with the arrows to note when a note/note (heh, pun intended I guess lol) sucession goes up or down from there

[@azaankhan9247]

We've all heard at least one of these in the background of some random youtube video, that's how good they are

[@Korbloxiangames]

I heard all in videos 😂

[@JovinGhoul23]

I have to admit, I think Zelda's lullaby is the most iconic song of all time...even over 20 years later

[@thundercmc]

I don't complain about Saria's song being number one, it's really addictive

[@Squish_Squash]

that moment when you know a song is from a zelda game but you don't know which song it is or which game it's from so you watch this video to see if it'll help and it does (I was looking for song of storms, apparently!)
