gamers like to complain about arrows pointing you to the destination, but then when they actually have to find the way on their own, they complain about it too xD I liked this zone a lot
I think it was intentional to avoid smashing the control out of frustration... lol but yes best music so far!! I'm 60 hours in and have not finished it yet
Rebirth is not only exceptional at nostalgic emotions, but creating new emotional resonance whole-cloth. This theme is a perfect example. This is new and absolutely stunning.
@@jackjohnson8305 Cosmo Canyon has the nicest city theme. But for me the actual zone has the worst most grating music in the game. I actually couldn't wait to leave it.
I get to play an hour or less at at time (I've got young kids) so its amazing to me how quickly I can jump right back in and be immersed. Its a wonderful game.
I love the way this song develops the more Intel you discover in the region. When the chants first came in my jaw literally dropped. It was so magical, and I wasn't expecting it at all
Oh so it's the intels that changes the ost? I was also surprised when I started to hear the chants but did not realize that it was because of me discovering more intel 😮. I'm blown away by this mechanic.
Similar to nier games. As you progress the song gets better. Introduces new instruments and vocals. Absolutely love that square Enix kept this design choice
This music really fits Zack's wild and optimistic spirit beautifully. I can only imagine what he was like as a kid, he was probably a menace to everyone lol.
After conquering a tower, I climbed onto my chocobo and jumped on a mushroom... and while I was in the air, the evolution of the song with the choirs started for the first time, it was a beautiful moment. I love when a song evolves through the player actions and progress
Fellow Caribbean here (Dominican) and yep, this region totally reminded me of going to my family's house and running barefoot up in the hills and climbing trees and going into the ocean. Just being a kid.
The area itself was an absolute nightmare to navigate lol. But I adore this track - I can just imagine Zack growing up and training in the jungle. No wonder he was so damn tough! The devs did a wonderful job of this region overall. Oh obligatory DO NOT SPOIL THINGS FOR OTHERS reminder. This game is truly magical.
@@DaBigBasehell, I turned off the compass and mini map and just traveled thru Gongaga like that. Was absolutely amazing, just following the lifestream birds and roads
The Irish bagpipes mixed with the pipes, flutes, and drums with the gentle strings in the background elicit all sorts of emotions. I'll just hang around Gongaga just to hear this music on a loop.
Right! I'm usually blasting through on my ride but the Songs in this game are so good, I just can't help but walk... All the way until I have to bounce on a mushroom 😅
This whole game’s OST is the type that just sticks with you where you just get an emotional response the second you hear it. Can’t put my finger on exactly why but the last game that gave me these vibes was Kingdom Hearts 2
It's fitting. Since Birth By Sleep had Zack in Hercules world. Cloud may have been the plot armor protagonist of FF7, but Zack is the TRUE TRAGIC HERO OF FF7 😢😢
For french people : There is a vocal sample of children chanting that is used in that song. That sample is from the song RMI by MC Solaar, one of the finest french rapper of the past 30 years. I searched in my memory for at least 2 days before I remember. This is the kind of crossover that you can't imagine 😂
Ur not alone I did the same for somebody that played the original FF7 this was amazing to see and brought tears to my eyes 😭 because I remember this region in the original was only 2 screens I swear what Square has made is truly incredible and FF7 Rebirth is truly a magical experience 🥹 loving every second of it I’m around 90 hours in
There hasn't been a lot of games lately where I just set my controller down and take in the sights and sounds. Maybe it's because FF VII is one of my favorite games of all time but this ost is just perfect
This theme is so amazing. I kept having to stop to take in the games soundtrack - I'm in disbelief at how good it is. The diversity in open world design is something else
god i love this track, and honestly one of my favorite areas of rebirth, omg i could spend forever in this jungle just listening to this track, its just so damn goood
This was the wildest thing that's ever happened to me while playing a video game. Up until this point, I failed miserably at every single piano challenge. After my experience listening to this music on my hike to gongaga, it changed me. All i could think of, this is a tribute to zack. Upon entering the village I tried the piano challenge once more. I hit almost every note on all my 4 music sheets.
The combination of beautifully remixed renditions of classic FF7 tracks and wonderful original music like this is perfection. This song is so well-composed, if I never played the original FF7, I would be shocked to find out it was in the original game. On top of that, besides FF7, Sonic Adventure was one of my favorite games as a really little kid, and elements of this song remind me of Mystic Ruins from that game, so to me at least, it's like a cool little mix of nostalgic memories :)
I love the beach and the jungle and swimming in crystal waters, its my favorite environment to be in and I thrive in it. When i first heard this and walked into Gongaga all i could think of was "oh, feels just like home!" And then i thought of Zack and all the fun he must have had as a kid. You can tell his parents are a lovely couple too who loved their son very much. Its no wonder Zack turned out such a good person.
The track changes the more you unlock those satellites I noticed... the hymn gets stronger. I was blown away when I played this section last night... I'm not trying to speed run this game....so much to do.
Literally sounds like an early 90’s Disney ost from idk.. some 3 characters going through there arcs and coming together to form peace after war in the jungle and now they are going to re shape the jungle into a better place montage with this song in the background lol
I just heard the vocals for the first time in game while exploring Gongaga. I wasn't expecting to be hit with emotions out of nowhere. This song is absolutely beautiful. I can't thank the team enough for making this game.
This track really hits home for me. My first introduction to FF7 was Crisis Core. Getting to actually explore Zack’s home, along with the crazy emotions of the story in Rebirth at this point was very gratifying and cathartic. It was like Kingdom Hearts 3 all over again for me.
Most beautiful region with the most beautiful music. It was a pain to get around (especially trying to get to that damn middle tower) but this was my favorite area
I was so stunned hearing this lion kingish sound and it fits so well within the FF7 remake universe. A universe of infinite possibilities. I think this is what they were going for. The nostalgia mixed with new moments are what make this game a masterpiece. Definitely my goty contender.
The original was a masterpiece ive played countless times over the past 25 years..... And can see me doing the same with this masterpiece. An absolute work of art
It's a beautiful game....I dare say better than the original so far. I'm so glad the development team took this game so seriously. This game has meant a lot to people.
Hearing this reminds me of walking through Epcot or Animal Kingdom after closing, seeing the torches lit at night and taking it all in knowing you’ll never experience something like this for the first time again
Just finished the Gongaga region a few days ago, (Sunday night). Made it to Gongaga this past Thursday. Finally got to play it during the weekend, and to be honest I didn’t like this part of the game cause of the traversal. The thing I liked about Gongaga is the theme, just thought it was really peaceful. Monday night I was scrolling through my feed on Instagram to find out a childhood friend passed. She’s someone I’ve known since elementary school. Everyone we grew up with is shocked, cause it came out of nowhere. I thought it happened on Monday, but she actually passed Sunday morning. I have this thing where I’m always thinking about what I was doing in that moment/day when someone I know passes, I don’t know why. I was asking myself “What the hell was I doing that morning? Oh yeah… playing Final Fantasy.” Then I remembered this theme since it was basically playing on my tv throughout the weekend. Really doesn’t help when you finally reach the village, and one of the first things you do is “pay your respects”. There’s a lot of things that’ll remind me of her, but for now whenever I hear this theme I’m gonna be thinking of her. Don’t know if it’s a good thing or a bad thing, but time will tell. To anyone reading this, sorry for the rant. Just had to say something.
Hey, don’t apologize. I think it’s beautiful reading and hearing about how something that’s touched me in one way has had such an impact on someone else as well. I think the variety of experiences we all have related to the same one thing (in this case, a piece of music) is something to be celebrated. Rest In Peace to your friend, I hope she’s in a better place and I hope you and those you know are taking care of yourselves during this difficult time. Much love
This song provides just unreal atmosphere in the game, is my favorite of the game so far and one of my all time favorite vid soundtrack songs already, immediately resonated with me. I just wanted to never leave this region, it was so colorful and bright and had this song non stop. Reminds me of a Frontier song.
Easily my favourite regional theme. It's got a very lilting, almost Irish or Scottish vibe to it. I spent three times as long as I needed in gongaga just to listen to this
I knew the OST for rebirth was going to be great but it blew me away. Not only a plethora of top tier pieces but having the music develop as you progress and multiple versions of them (battle,questing,etc) it really is something else. Like many others when first hearing the gongaga theme i spent the next 30mins or more just listening and it became one of my fav tracks in the game.
Me, first time hearing this track : "Yeah, that vibe is chill" Me, after 5h exploring the region, being lost countless of time in the jungle: "Yeah, that vibe is chill"
so good, thanks for this video! I'm curious about the composer credits, because the only composer that I know with this kind of sound is yasunori mitsuda.
I figured out why I LOVE this theme. It reminds me of the adventures in the forest that my cousin had back behind his place. During the weekends and for weeks during the supper we would have sleep overs and when we were younger like thirteen and under younger, we would have adventures in the woods exploring a rock excavation site, railroad tracks, an old pond with a drastic hill next too it. We had great adventures back then... I guess Gongaga region reminded me of that same energy with this song in the background... Man it like so many have said I can see young zack having a blast here.
I walked to tesco which is a mile away to get a cheeky meal deal for work while listening to this theme I couldn't stop smiling listening to this:) thank you for sharing
The people who disliked this video probably got lost trying to find the right mushroom.
Felt
gamers like to complain about arrows pointing you to the destination, but then when they actually have to find the way on their own, they complain about it too xD I liked this zone a lot
Hahaha and then finding out the right way is not a mushroom at all.
@@markula382さ😅さささささささささ😅😅ささささささ😅さ
😊
This track has some of that 90s Disney magic in it. It’s crazy just how good it is. It makes you feel like you’re not playing FF7 anymore
This game just blew me away. I’ve just finished it, and I can’t really say anything negative about it.
mixed with pandora/avatar vibes
Definitely had a slight lion king/Scottish sound to it
i feel like its Pandora from Avatar
@@4o4FoundingTitanVery “behold the splendor of nature untamed”
Me? Gongaga.
You know Gongaga?
Hotel? Trivago.
I love this theme 🎉🎉🎉
I lost it hearing Crisis Core theme as you enter the village.
Us ? Gongaga
I literally had to put the controller down and just appreciate this amazing song when I arrived in Gongaga
I put the controller down to just have a listen too! But also because as beautiful as Gonagaga was it was navigational hell for me lol 😅
@@RamgelaZ lol so true!!
I think it was intentional to avoid smashing the control out of frustration... lol but yes best music so far!!
I'm 60 hours in and have not finished it yet
The same
Same here.
The only thing i can think about in this region is young Zack, he probably had so many memories in this jungle ; _ ;
This is spot on. I believe thats what they were aiming for. Zacks heart and soul shines throughout Gongaga.
Yes this
Yess, it's so pure
100% this, it hit me immediately and I couldn't stop thinking about it. So, so good.
You can find Zack's homemade jungle gym where he trained before going to Shinra
Rebirth is not only exceptional at nostalgic emotions, but creating new emotional resonance whole-cloth. This theme is a perfect example. This is new and absolutely stunning.
I believe that's why they were aiming at. :)
@@agamersinsanity Bull's-eye
Absolutely right brother! This is one of FF's greatest tracks. Not just in Rebirth but across the entire series.
Greatest soundtrack ever ina videogame but this song no, it dosnt belong here it dosnt feel ff7ish. Just this one, remove it from the game please.
Are you a writer because that was so eloquently put
Best region ost
Mt Corel went hard too
By a landslide. It's the only major zone theme that doesn't play the FF7 Overworld motif.
Nah Cosmo Canyon is best.
@@jackjohnson8305 Cosmo Canyon has the nicest city theme. But for me the actual zone has the worst most grating music in the game. I actually couldn't wait to leave it.
Are you fucking kidding me? Its atrocious. First time in a ff game i turned the music off.
Rebirth has genuinely been so amazing at immersion, I feel like I'm a part of their journey and I wish it would never end.
I get to play an hour or less at at time (I've got young kids) so its amazing to me how quickly I can jump right back in and be immersed. Its a wonderful game.
This hold special place in my heart from now on.
I love the way this song develops the more Intel you discover in the region. When the chants first came in my jaw literally dropped. It was so magical, and I wasn't expecting it at all

When you arrive the chants are from a sample that I heard years ago. Now I have to remember which song, but it's a sample
@@wilddragonchase
Similar to nier games. As you progress the song gets better. Introduces new instruments and vocals. Absolutely love that square Enix kept this design choice
wait, the chant was not there when you first entered? I didn't notice that, now I wonder did other region ost also have something like this?
This music really fits Zack's wild and optimistic spirit beautifully. I can only imagine what he was like as a kid, he was probably a menace to everyone lol.
Fr, I bet man was a chaotic energetic child
He’s a puppy as an adult, no doubt a super little Tarzan as a kid
The kids cheer is so fking wholesome
@@axelstone3131 Take a break from the internet? Idk man.
what was the comment? curious.
@@Sharky-1507 They deleted haha. They made a stink about how overused the word ‘wholesome’ is.
@@baphniehell yeah, keep the haters accountable
You can feel the Lifestream flowing through this music, it's so pure and holy, it heals the soul
I never thought of it that way... but you're right.
After conquering a tower, I climbed onto my chocobo and jumped on a mushroom... and while I was in the air, the evolution of the song with the choirs started for the first time, it was a beautiful moment. I love when a song evolves through the player actions and progress
This is by far the best overworld theme hands down.
The music. The area. It reminds me of growing up in Jamaica. I could cry man
Best Jungle music ever.
Fellow Caribbean here (Dominican) and yep, this region totally reminded me of going to my family's house and running barefoot up in the hills and climbing trees and going into the ocean. Just being a kid.
Fellow jamaican. I feel you on this even tho I was US born, being there is just amazing
With this song, the composer was a master in conjuring the past we didn't see, but loved anyway. I love Final Fantasy VII and Zack.
This song is living rent free in my head.
*GOTY 2024 for me*
Tifa has been living in mine since this game's release lol
@@mecha_nemesis_6897Amateur. Tifa and Aeris’ been living rent free in my head since the 90s.

The devs did a wonderful job of this region overall. Oh obligatory DO NOT SPOIL THINGS FOR OTHERS reminder.
This game is truly magical.
Really? I loved exploring here.
@@Catastrophic_Cactuar Same. The gliding in Cosmo Canyon gave me way more trouble than Gongaga.
@@Catastrophic_Cactuar Maybe they should've painted the mushrooms yellow for these players
@@DaBigBasehell, I turned off the compass and mini map and just traveled thru Gongaga like that. Was absolutely amazing, just following the lifestream birds and roads
I just really hate those jellyfish enemies are invincible 99% of the time.
Imagine listening to this song again 20 years later. This will give me the same feeling as Fisherman’s Horizon of FF8
This track has no business slapping this hard!
The Irish bagpipes mixed with the pipes, flutes, and drums with the gentle strings in the background elicit all sorts of emotions.
I'll just hang around Gongaga just to hear this music on a loop.
By Irish bagpipes you mean Uillean pipes? I could be wrong though.....
Just like the orgy…
@@NREAL01 you're right. they're uillean pipes.
I purposely walked the whole region because i enjoyed this music so much😂 this game is phenomenal.
What u say I did not want to leave
the chocobo theme was not that great compared to this 😂
Same here 🤣🤣
Right! I'm usually blasting through on my ride but the Songs in this game are so good, I just can't help but walk... All the way until I have to bounce on a mushroom 😅
I wanted to exit Gongaga asap but the music really helped
This whole game’s OST is the type that just sticks with you where you just get an emotional response the second you hear it. Can’t put my finger on exactly why but the last game that gave me these vibes was Kingdom Hearts 2
Reminds me of kingdom hearts 2 lion king world for sure

Un grand merci.
Merciiiiii!! Dès que j’ai entendu ce passage je savais que le choeur me disait qqch mais j’arrivais pas à savoir d’où !!
Incroyable réf 😳😳😳
Je viens de l'entendre dans le jeu et j'ai trouvé direct ! C'est un rip off improbable
They really outdid themselves with this game. No other JRPG comes CLOSE, it’s so well developed and the world is so well realized.
Elden ring still edges it for me, but this game for sure is up there for me
@@josh2570I like em both for different reasons, ff7 for the lovable characters and story and elden ring for the combat and sweat inducing boss battles
@@josh2570 Elden Ring wishes it had even ouch of personality and quality like this game.
@@GutsTheBeast each to their own. For me, the exploration was far superior in Elden ring than this game.
@@josh2570Elden Ring isnt a JRPG in the traiditional way that Rebirth is.
I found Gongaga to be a pain to traverse, but I didn't mind since this was in the background the whole time
Right there with you! Least favorite to explore but favorite to listen to
Uillean Pipes in a ff7 soundtrack surely warms my irish heart. ❤ 🇮🇪
mine to!
My jaw dropped when I heard this ingame. Breathtaking game honestly.
me too
Every now and again you stumble onto a theme in an RPG that's so arresting and you just put down your controller and listen, and vibe.
This music blew me away when I first heard it. So good. The whole ost is so good!
Beautiful song for a beautiful game😊
Future nostalgia right here.
The children singing are sampled from the song "RMI" by MC Solaar.
If you crack a smile and put the controller down to enjoy the music, it's a great game.
Whats what I did 😌🥹
@FOXY_SPHYNX Yeah, I was like, wait a minute!!! But it fits the area so well and inspires hope to journey forward.
@@kupo7790 bro... and THE GUS THEME 💀💀💀
@FOXY_SPHYNX oh don't get me started lol

Which region had your favorite theme?
Me:Gongaga
One of the best ost no cap they did a great job with this song it reminds me of playing Spyro and other old games were is a Forrest
Spyro da goat
I feel bad for people that didn’t like this region I thought it was magical and the OST is so good
I broke into tears at this not gonna lie

I'm right there with ya! I love the area and the music is incredible
Southeast Asia vibe is heavy with this music, especially some of the ruins in the region, really reminds me of Cambodia.
It just bleeds fantasy and The Lion King, I love it
There hasn't been a lot of games lately where I just set my controller down and take in the sights and sounds. Maybe it's because FF VII is one of my favorite games of all time but this ost is just perfect
I love how just a few seconds here instantly convinces you why and how Zack became such a cool guy
This theme is so amazing. I kept having to stop to take in the games soundtrack - I'm in disbelief at how good it is. The diversity in open world design is something else
Bro. Just this region alone, i give this game GAME OF THE YEAR!😊
I was going to bed was 03:00 in the morning when this just kick in, couldnt stop playin for few more hours
Same.
This song makes me so happy 🥹🥹🥹
god i love this track, and honestly one of my favorite areas of rebirth, omg i could spend forever in this jungle just listening to this track, its just so damn goood
One of the best Songs in the Game ❤

Lisan al gaib!
This track is excellent. Made me feel like I was a kid again running through this zone. Discovering everything
I changed my mind. After going for 100% this track is ingrained into my brain it hurts so bad

Yo I just got to this point in the game. The music hit so hard I literally stopped for 20 minutes just to vibe
Best region OST. Very much needed by the insanely difficult map navigation.
listening to this gem made all the quests that much more enjoyable
Got to this region lastnight and this has been the music I have enjoyed the most so far.
Welcome, to Fantasy Ireland 🍀

I just heard the vocals for the first time in game while exploring Gongaga. I wasn't expecting to be hit with emotions out of nowhere. This song is absolutely beautiful. I can't thank the team enough for making this game.
This track really hits home for me. My first introduction to FF7 was Crisis Core. Getting to actually explore Zack’s home, along with the crazy emotions of the story in Rebirth at this point was very gratifying and cathartic. It was like Kingdom Hearts 3 all over again for me.

The theme song to my nightmares of trying to navigate this region. To be serious though this is a well done song
Gongaga was a pain in the ass to explore but this song make up for it.
The original was a masterpiece ive played countless times over the past 25 years..... And can see me doing the same with this masterpiece. An absolute work of art

Just finished the Gongaga region a few days ago, (Sunday night). Made it to Gongaga this past Thursday. Finally got to play it during the weekend, and to be honest I didn’t like this part of the game cause of the traversal. The thing I liked about Gongaga is the theme, just thought it was really peaceful. Monday night I was scrolling through my feed on Instagram to find out a childhood friend passed. She’s someone I’ve known since elementary school. Everyone we grew up with is shocked, cause it came out of nowhere. I thought it happened on Monday, but she actually passed Sunday morning. I have this thing where I’m always thinking about what I was doing in that moment/day when someone I know passes, I don’t know why. I was asking myself “What the hell was I doing that morning? Oh yeah… playing Final Fantasy.” Then I remembered this theme since it was basically playing on my tv throughout the weekend. Really doesn’t help when you finally reach the village, and one of the first things you do is “pay your respects”. There’s a lot of things that’ll remind me of her, but for now whenever I hear this theme I’m gonna be thinking of her. Don’t know if it’s a good thing or a bad thing, but time will tell. To anyone reading this, sorry for the rant. Just had to say something.
Hey, don’t apologize. I think it’s beautiful reading and hearing about how something that’s touched me in one way has had such an impact on someone else as well.

I just wanted to never leave this region, it was so colorful and bright and had this song non stop. Reminds me of a Frontier song.
0:43-1:14 is my favorite part for sure. Brilliant track, the rise of the strings with the percussion does it.
A lot of people understandably complain about navigating this area, but this music meant I didn't really mind.
Made me feel like I was back in Rak Tika. If I heard a La Hee from ‘civilizations’ it would have blended right in
I thought of raktika too!
This great game made me smile. Wow.
I love this. This music is where I want to live. If that makes sense.
I love this theme so much, I’m doing all the side quests just to enjoy this track. I don’t find the jungle hard to get around, I love exploring.
Final Fantasy is truly Final Fantasy again. 🙌

I’ve had this track stuck in my head for a week n half now since playing through the region, wow ❤
A song befitting the ancient home of the Cetra; mysterious but playful. In other words, dope AF.
My favorite theme from the new FF7, so amazing!
Me, first time hearing this track : "Yeah, that vibe is chill"
Me, after 5h exploring the region, being lost countless of time in the jungle: "Yeah, that vibe is chill"
This is my 7th time having this on loop. Something about it that evokes an early 1900's adventure into the jungle.
It simply one of the best music of the game ever love it!
I got so lost in the jungle but it was alright since this was playing in the background!
The Nobuo is back baby
so good, thanks for this video! I'm curious about the composer credits, because the only composer that I know with this kind of sound is yasunori mitsuda.
I believe it’s Masashi Hamauzu (who also did FFXIII, notably). Gives me Keiichi Okabe vibes with the choir (NieR).

This ost gave me slight Nier vibes by how the chorus sounded. Definitely by far my favorite ost so far by how much my head was bopping
They really knocked the music out of the park. I'm enjoying every song I hear. New song to have on repeat. Thanks squeeeenix
I walked to tesco which is a mile away to get a cheeky meal deal for work while listening to this theme I couldn't stop smiling listening to this:) thank you for sharing
I actually cried, my life went to a flash back of everything ❤this song does something to my soul
My gawd square enix and their music is absolutely fcken phenomenal
This song has been stuck in my head for days since spending hours in and then leaving gongaga. I keep wanting to go back just to hear the theme again.
This song got me through the headache that was navigating this jungle
