When I heard the song, I was reminded of Dragon Roost Island and Gerudo Valley all three songs are organic and have instruments not usually included in Zelda tracks. In my opinion, it is as good, if not better, than the Great Sea theme in Wind Waker. But after a suggestion from a friend to include this song on the list, I checked it out, and I was impressed. I’ll admit it: I’ve never played Spirit Tracks. Spirit Tracks Overworld Theme (Spirit Tracks) To me, the rain the Song of Storms summons is like Guru-Guru’s tears.ġ8. Whenever I hear the song, I am reminded of the sad man who does nothing else but play his music box. The first time you hear it is when meeting Guru-Guru, a very strange NPC. The history of the song is mysterious as well. The Song of Storms is one of the most mysterious tracks in Ocarina of Time, simply because it somehow causes rain to fall. While you only hear this music for a minute in the game, since the story does not revisit the Observatory again, it doesn’t stop fans like me from going there and picking up a smile.

It’s only after experience that you can understand why I picked these songs. And if you haven’t played the Zelda series yet, check them out. You will definitely not agree 100% with me, but I hope that you’ll be satisfied nonetheless. The tracks chosen were picked for their quality and the memories they bring up for me. It was me putting all these amazing tracks in a competition between each other, and there were tons of tough decisions. You may have noticed the huge time gap between this post and the last it’s because this list was more than a typical top ten list.

So to come up with a list of the top 20 was no walk in the park. What Kondo did so well was make music that was simple and emotional at the same time it’s part of what makes the memories for the LOZ series so cherished. The Zelda tracks were created by Koji Kondo, perhaps the most prolific composer in video game music history. When talking about great achievements in video game music, expect the words “Zelda” to come up a bit.
