Its so great to hear these old songs. It just shows how far we have come as nations. The german civ 6 theme is for example 300+ years old. This french one comes from the Renessaince! So many themes are old folklore songs who date back to times that are unimaginable for us today but at the same time they kind of sound very familiar. I mean you could go back 1000 years into the past and would still see some cultural parallels to todays countries. Its so fascinating to think that even when you are born this long after them that their lives and life lessions still echo through us and our cultures.
I thought France medieval theme is the best track I can find in this soundtrack. Then I found modern version and... I really, really like to be wrong this way :>
Parks her units at your boarders on like turn 35 ... Finally decides to attack at turn 156: "Ha ha, you never saw that coming, I only pretended to be your friend!" Ok, Kathy. xD I wish they gave us option to ask AI why are their units on your boarder or demand they move them, kinda like how they ask\demand from you.

I personally like the Ancient and Medieval versions the most, the Industrial and Atomic versions sound more epic at the expense of losing the beautiful melody and rhythm of the composition. Yes, modern-sounding instruments and effects could be used, but not to lose the core melody and rhythm.
Anybody knows on which composition is the soundtrack based? It really reminds me every time of a Czech folk song called ''Batalion'' Edit: Nevermind, I realised that the text is not really focused about Bohemia or Moravia but more like France and the song is apparently based on a French 'Tourdion'' and the Civ composition is too :D
Representing France with an italian lady that held the regence during 10 years top is...quite a fail I'm afraid. why not pick like anyone more important (Louis XIV, Napoleon, Napoleon III, De Gaulle, Jeanne d'Arc, even Richelieu!)
You complain about a 10 years recency queen (who in reality rules France 40 years, 10 with her husband and 30 during her sons' reigns), and want Jeanne d'Arc, who won one important siege during 2 years generalship before being burnt ? Please be more logical. Now, question of choice that can be discussed, the developers wanted to make the players discover new interesting leaders for some civs instead of returning to other ones who have already been in the older games.
@@valentinlepissier5206 She pretty much was the impersonation of the "deep state" back in her days so your argument is extremely invalid. Also, Napoleon already was present in a previous occurence of the Civ series so there really is no need to bring him back. Also, De Gaulle was a political figure 50 years ago so there really is no need to put a spotlight on him, everyone pretty much the character already. Louis XIV is known by everyone too. If we listened to guys like you, we would pretty much always have Cesar as Rome.
0:00 Ancient theme 3:08 Medieval theme 6:21 Industrial theme 9:53 Modern theme
ZeUltimateFrenchy thanks
ua-cam.com/video/rxlwCTOuTSs/v-deo.html the true song
Medieval themes are always the best
@@baconman2.052 i feel, just my opinion, but fir England it's the atomic era
the "ancient theme" is a slow version of "tourdion"

A France ambient theme is from the 14th century--"When I return", by Guillaume de Machaut.
Sumeria is based off the Hurrian Hymn, which dates back to roughly 1400 BCE. and also happens to be my favourite theme in the game
What's best about that one is that it's a drinking song about waging war to a flagon of wine :D
i like the fact that for example the russian melody is known by the whole world, but the french melody is even not known by french people...
@@bsibbs2667 you sure ? I thought it was phoenicia's theme which was based on the hurrian hymn
" You can't choose your leader just based on their soundtrack"
me:
If it's only based on soundtrack, shaka zulu without question
@@luisalcantara6097 Either I don't have expansions, or Brazil is the best
Understandable
What idiot would say you can't?
That's me in Civ V with Sweden

I prefer Ancient theme myself.
The French medieval theme makes we want to taunt those English types a second time!
The best civ deserves the best music. Hands down 10/10

Medieval era and Atomic era themes are absolute fire
It's Tourdion in case you are wondering.
That tune never leaves you once you've heard it.
Thanks ☺️
This is actually very good for learning music, to see this theme in 4 different versions.
This is one of the few Civ themes where I actually like Ancient Era the best
One of my favorites, along with Russia and Aztec themes
10:58 the most modern of the most modern themes
that bass in the modern theme is lit
Oh you're telling me
Shakes my house XD
medieval theme is 👌👌👌
Quand je bois du vin clairet

Best medieval music
This, and Hungary's are my favorites.
This, and Arabia's theme are 👨🍳 💋.
10:56 the sound of the many airplanes of tourists leaving your ugly civ.
Surveille ton dos
Fais gaffe a ce que tu dis
This is one of my favorites, together with Greece and England
cathy my girl :*
This song is very similar to the song "The march of the sword master" of Rhapsody
march of the sword master is pretty much the tune of Touridion, that both pieces take inspiration from.
Love it when France is in play so their theme fills the air
Never played as them though as I only play Spanish
Not another spy duhhh

Unique Era names for France
Ancient: Gauls
Classical: Franks
Medieval: Capetian
Renaissance: Bourbon
Industrial: Napoleonic
Modern: Republican
Atomic: De Gaule
Information: Mitterand
Wouldn't it be better if it was Modern: De Gaulle and Atomic: Republican ?
@@AlexLangerak Modern represents the period of Post-Napoleonic France all the way to Vichy France. Atomic era France began when De Gaul is president.
@Son of Kemet That's future era. Information Era is Late Cold War to 2000's. We're in the future era.
@Son of Kemet No problem. I like to write up every Civ's Unique Era Names.
I think for Valois in medieval theme
i only play this leader for winning culture. but ooh man, the ost blow me away
I love this music

Grave

Where is "Douce Dame Jolie" theme? :)
8:13 too good
essa é a melhor musica
Quand je bois du vin clairet..

What if you play France under Eleanor, will the music theme be the same?
Yes.
probably
The true song is Tourdion: Quand je bois du vin clairet

You are a scholar and a gentleman. Merci
Play If Catherine and have most powerfull Spy country version 007
Her name should be Catherine de' Nochin
why ?
@@AlexLangerak she has no chin
@@shibe5877
She even has two of them. ;-)
Ancient theme on 1.25 sounds more epic.
I seem to be the only one to place the industrial theme first
Scheming lady....
What instrument is that starts at 00:55 ?
It's a lute, I think.
everything is fine, arrangements, but this song is simply not for this game, it doesn't have the might. Even Seiklos Epitaph sounded powerful.
What song is this? I must know.
Quel est le nom de cette chanson?
"quand je bois du vin clairet" in french.
SuperThomac Merci.
it called Tourdion, great French drinking song.
Best waifu. Real world Cersei.
Instruments?
This music reminds me of tf2 spy
Just learned that Chaithren was actually Maired to the man of the woods look it up
How did you spell her name wrong? It's literally there in the title lol
where the accordions at
where the baguettes, cheese, vine at?! :D

Dude there is a Civilipedia IN THE GAME to explain you why this character is important

I really enjoy to put first a Lady in France who "reign the country" and also someone less popular than De Gaulle, Louis XIV or Napoleon! : D
