Twilight Princess - Sacred Grove

[@aaronbaker8588]

I think the best part of this song is that it reflects the theme of the entire game. It's a much sadder, darker tone introduced at the beginning, and it transforms this originally delightful and happy song into this melancholic, reflective, and slightly nostalgic song.

[@sethn5217]

Aaron Baker Unfortunately the game fails to keep the gloom feeling effective throughout the game, like it was trying too hard to be dark and creepy.

[@OkMazzy]

I beg to differ, I loved every bit of it. I didn't think of it as a game "trying" to be creepy. I thought of it as wind wakers foil. Whilst WW was happy and cartoonish, TP is unhappy and dark. The themes fit appropriately.

[@mangafan589]

Seth N agreed

[@HikariMichi42]

TP is not the best Zelda game but I disagree that it's not effective at portraying a mood. When it comes to atmosphere, I think this game succeeds best of them all. It's very consistent when it comes to tone and aesthetic. It also has great music and sound effects and the more realistic graphics and colour scheme helps immerse you in the game to get that mysterious and lonely feeling Link experiences. This particular Link has one of the saddest lives of all … He's not uncontested of course, OoT Link's life is also pretty bad. But TP Link is just thrown into a scary adventure after having lived a safe life in the country his entire life, the children who idolize him are kidnapped, he's transformed into a wolf without knowing if he will ever be able to become human again, Midna is mean to him at the beginning, he has to take on an enormous responsibility just because some people he's only recently met tell him he's the chosen one, and then when he's finally done with the adventure and he and Midna have become close friends she breaks the only passage between their worlds. You can imagine he would be pretty shook by all of these events.

[@shockinglinkdude]

The OoC version of this song made it sound very happy and uplifting, this version really makes it sound like the "Lost" Woods

[@KILLEROFGOD]

It reminds me more of Sarah's Song then Lost Woods.

[@gustavo33413]

Yeah, it's funny, this song makes feel like "Midnight";

[@Solvanderlyn]

The addition of the Sacred Grove meant so much to me. Seeing how the Temple of Time (arguably the most memorable area of OoT) is slowly progressing to a state reminiscent how we found the Sacred Grove in the middle of the Lost Woods in LttP was unexpected, nostalgic, and incredibly awe inspiring. This game was amazing.

[@PhantomfaceStudios]

this song gives me kind of a timeless feeling. like the woods are saing "yes, we're still here"

[@ShaDHP23]

Someone once said they think this song is being played by Saria's spirit when Link enters the grove. That's a saddening thought.

[@TomNStuff]

(Link sees Skull Kid) "Hey, there's the fucker who stole Majora's Mask and turned my childhood into a nightmare! Get back here!"

[@user-is9qe9pe6d]

this is not the same link as majoras mask link you linked it wrong

[@anontob]

different timeline tho

no, Link is reborn, but skull kid is the same, I was wrong at the time ;D, i did a bit more research, I swear Nintendo don't give 2 shits about the timelines and the story, but they make good puzzles

[@ringorhino129]

I almost cried when I heard Saria's Song in the Sacred Grove. I really teared up.

[@MoonGoesShiny]

Listening to this whilst the wind soothing along with the trees in the background... Wow. That's one out of many reason why Zelda always will be my favorite saga.

[@thenerdasaurus3717]

No matter how beautiful it may be, Breath of the Wild can never compete with this level of atmosphere. The sighing of the trees and the singing of the birds, all a backing track for this lonely, legendary melody.

[@CrowFluffin]

twilight princess is the first video game I ever played at 4 years old first Zelda game first memories and a few years ago the first game I ever beat to this day it has remained my favorite game of all time more than botw and I think tp is severely underrated

[@starkilla102]

Ten out of Ten i also got into Zelda at TP. I fell in love with the series. Then BOTW came out with the DlC and brought back some good memories

[@monkeyking1150]

Join the club.

[@paulturnbull1350]

I got in a ocarina of time without a doubt my favourite series ever and the best I have ever played

[@justsomeguywholikeswater3566]

Y'all are being blinded by nostalgia. As a bystander who hasn't lived during the n64/gamecube days, (well I did but I wasn't allowed to play any games) twilight princess is very, very, medicore.

[@luigirocks132xd8]

True join the twilight club

[@taisongameplays]

Twilight Princess is special because of it´s darkness, in contrast to the happiness and bright of all the The Legend of Zelda. It´s my favourite one too.

[@plastic.daisyy]

At the beginning (like first 15 seconds or so) it sounds a little like something that would be playing as it starts to rain in a thick woods at dusk alone for some reason.

[@EarReadMusic]

That's the Power of the harp! Plus there was Background ambient put in for a more *living* feeling

[@RavenMaster1313]

Saria's spirit is still within these woods, even though they have changed so much. She knows that within this Link, the old Link she once knew rests within him. She was keeping watch over him, playing her Ocarina, a beautiful yet almost haunting sound, echoing through the ancient woods....

[@ScrazyAmanM]

I can honestly say that this game has one of the most beautiful soundtracks for a long time, I'm still waiting another game to even attempt to beat it.. This was my childhood.. I love it so much :)

[@rootbeer543]

I love this song. It almost echos the past. You flash back to exploring the Lost Woods in Ocarina of Time, and now here you are in the same place only hundreds of years later.

[@chaoluv041]

i remember i was like "OMG THIS IS SARIAS SONG!" And im chasing Skull Kid expecting Saria to appear somewhere. It didn't happen TT^TT

[@tridan111]

In the game I waited quite long in the sacred grove just so I could listen to this awesome song. Thumbs up for this one

[@Chrisi575]

Now i want to play the Game again. Story, music, gameplay and so on... are just epic!!

[@knighthousemusic]

this goes on my zelda playlist

[@misterlink2]

i love hearing the ambiance of the leaves in the background:)

[@drewhill8777]

I love how they incorporated Sarai’s song

[@DonkeyFilms]

Am I the only one who was creeped out in this area of the game? That skull kid is scary!

[@PaperBladeToad]

We're 3 :3 Sooooooooo malinchonic,more for me cause this music is an "remake" of the music "lost wood" in ocarina of time,wich i've played

[@Angenano]

PaperBlade Toad malincholic? LOL melancholic, bro. And everyone knows its a remake of lost woods, you dont have to use (") for every single fucking thing you say, beacause "lost woods" Isnt a fucking quote, idiot.

[@PaperBladeToad]

[@mikaujiro]

AngeloGamerZ Whoa calm down man

[@DonkeyFilms]

Lets all step back here, and smoke a huge blunt.

[@calimantis]

There was always a feeling of melancholy attached to this song for me in this particular game. The Hyrule depicted in Twilight Princess is reminiscent of the Hyrule from OOT, only in a much worse state. The whole game felt like you were trying to fix the world while living in the shadow of the Link from the OOT era, trying to live up to what he had become. This song drove that feeling home for me.. like you the hero of a lost world, struggling to restore it to its former glory.

[@thenerdasaurus3717]

Little wolf, little wolf Well, what brings you here? To this Sacred Grove - My secret home? Follow me, through the trees, To your Destiny! To the Sacred Sword It calls you forth Little wolf, just beware Of my friends Play with me Until the Journey ends… Little wolf, oh how strange All this is To see your familiar face again after so many hundreds of years…

[@alienation69]

Chasing a skull kid through the sacred grove was my favorite part of twilight princess

[@treydmark]

They took one of the best songs in the Series and somehow made it better, Bravo!

[@AmethystASTeRReisYALL]

BEAUTIFUL. JUST BEAUTIFUL.

[@micahdude9]

This song is so creepy and peaceful sounding at the same time. I love you Skullkid.

[@Kii_ruu]

I could sit here and listen to this all day. I hate reading yet i could happily sit back and listen to this while reading a book. i could even sleep to it. Zelda Forever!

[@bafoh]

When i first played Twilight Princess,i never expected such a song like the Lost woods would make a comeback,inside a soundtrack like this but then it already did in Wind Waker,this tells you that they still care about their old fans.

[@thefriendlygiantbear7839]

This brings me back to OoT.... What if this Sacred Grove is actually the remains of the Kokori village? That would explain the skull kid, as skull kids are made from Kokori

[@Olivercomet]

Then why are the ruins of the temple of time in the sacred grove

[@TheMattheist]

Bartdrew the Mad It's the ruined temple of time, though.

[@danysora]

Olivercomet The forest extended to the Temple.

[@mangafan589]

nope kokikiri forest is probably ordnance village

[@OkMazzy]

All these questions have been answered with the new Zelda now I'm sure, since the new Zelda is placed after twilight princess in the Zelda timeline

[@PinKunoichi20]

Ah, so much nostalgia in this one song. I remember when I first came to the grove, and it all seemed a bit familiar, but then that tune came into the music and I knew exactly where I was. The Lost Woods~ Only wish I could've found a Kokiri that was playing that tune.

[@zero40ful]

this version of lost woods is great , loved the rhytm

[@PinkoLady]

That's so perfectly put. I know lots of people hate Twilight Princess, but this is exactly why I loved it so much. Aside from the overt "dark" aspects of the game, the whole place seemed like it was either paralyzed by fear, or otherwise overrun and abandoned. There was a profound feeling that came with the game play, especially mingled with genuine nostalgia for older Zelda games.

[@AngryNerdBird]

Agreed. A LOT of the value of this game was the throwbacks to Ocarina of Time. Majora's Mask was my favorite of the N64 Titles, but this game really built upon the story of OoT in such a beautiful way. The whole bit in the Sacred Grove was very nostalgic, but also new in a really fun way.

[@TheCode-X]

the union of this song and the rainy mood is epic thumb up for you

[@isabelafouts4041]

I'm glad you think that! People tend to hate on Twilight Princess, Skyward Sword, and Wind Waker. (Those three actually happen to be my favorites from the franchise too, lol.)

[@Nicksolo85]

I wanna walk through the woods at night carrying a lantern with this playing as I explore.

you just explained my hole perspective of the game for me.

[@NintendoMinecraft64]

the most peaceful music i ever heard in any legend of zelda games

[@visiontree3316]

I luv twilight princess sacred grove... Looks so peaceful not to mention the song.

[@AngryNerdBird]

You are correct! The main melody is still the same, but the accompaniments completely change the feel of it. The original was a very childish, enthusiastic, energetic melody. The newer song is slower, but also feels darker, more mysterious, and I want to say it evokes a sense of danger, almost. It is very neat how the accompaniments make the song so different in ways that are subtle, yet aren't.

[@tailsfan11westandwithukraine]

“The flow of time is always cruel. Its speed seems different for each person, but no one can change it… A thing that doesn't change with time is a memory of younger days.” take this out of context, think about its deep meaning, and it could blow your mind. Even for the series itself. Few will ever know or love Phantom Hourglass because of how much time has passed, but it will always bring me memories of my childhood days. I would like to have, learn, and find as much wisdom as I can. Peace ✌️.

Since I didn't know about Saria's Song when I first played Twilight Princess, I heard this and was all like, "Oh, this song is so beautiful :)" then I went to youtube sometime later and heard Saria's Song. That was when I said, "OH MY GOD! IT'S THE SACRED GROVE THEME!"

[@Arkhamfreak217]

can you imagine if as you walked through, you could see the ghosts of characters? Maybe saria playing her ocarina, or a quick glimpse of link running by. only a slight glimpse, leaving you unsure if you actually saw it.

One who didn't like the Sacred Grove - it has to be Skull Kid! Poor kiddo, this tune is just so lovely to my ears. You know by the way that it reminds of a sad version of Saria's song.

@BobTheAwzum Technically it is the Lost Woods, just hundreds of years after Ocarina Of Time. In fact the place were in the Lost Woods that holds The Master Sword is the exact same place were Saria sat in the Lost Woods In Ocarina of Time. In fact the skull kid you meet in Twilight is the same one you met in Ocarina.
