Words can't well describe the emotions I feel listening to this. I saved up allowances to buy this game (that was a lot of money for me!) when it first came out and I remember sitting in the family car reading the booklet all the way home. I had never been so excited to play a game before, and I haven't felt that strongly about any other game since. There was just something intensely enchanting about Secret of Mana that sparked my imagination. I didn't have anyone to play it with, both of my brothers were too young and I didn't have any close friends so it became my own special escape, like reading a wonderful book. I lost myself in the game for countless hours and would often leave the console on just to listen to certain tracks over and over. I've replayed the game every couple years or so since, I even got my son into playing it with me for a time when he was a teenager, so now it has an even greater significance to me! You truly captured the emotion of the game perfectly in this tribute and I just wanted to say thank you for taking the time to do so, you truly are a gifted artist! I will keep this album near and dear to my heart for the rest of my life.
That's how I feel about this game too. 😌
@@CuteCuteJames Aye. Me too.
Hey, it was the same for me. A couple of years ago, I played both game with my the 8 year old. He loved it!
same for me bro ! still in my personal top 3 of all times ! priceless memories !
My first RPG I ever fell in love with. My first OST I bought at the age of 10! I asked my parents to mail in a check for me to Square America LOL! ABSOLUTELY LOVE this game and all the memories and feels it brings! You're not alone. Can't wait to play with my daughter when she gets older!
I discovered this game when I was 11 and at 37, this soundtrack can still bring tears to my eyes. It's no exaggeration to put this on par with Debussy, Ravel, Chopin, Beethoven or any of the great Romantic and
Impressionist composers.
I understand, my dear friend.
Hugs from Brazil.
As much as I like this music, you just can't compare it to Debussy or Chopin. They're not on the same level
@@tdb517 No, I definitely can.
It's a bitter sweet joy listening to the music. Brings back certain memories of my teenage years. Especially the time of 1997 when I was 14. That was the time you could see the comet Hale-Bopp in the sky. I played this game with a friend I went to school with. We played a lot of games at that time. SoM caused a lasting impact. The game is adventurous und touching. At the beginning of 1998 my friend moved away and we never saw each other again. Now 23 years past and every now and then I wonder how he did in life, where's he at right now... So every now and then I look up stuff about SoM on UA-cam and bathe in memories.
Hey we're in the age of hyperconnection, you may just stalk him on socials and start a conversation if you feel like it
I was 5 when I play this game in 1995, as only child, I like to play single player video game during childhood, Lol. Very memorable, isn't it?
A heart warming story. Maybe your friend asks himself about you while thinking of SoM...
I understand, my dear friend.
Hugs from Brazil.
That opening theme brings tears to my eyes... this game, and its story for me as a 10 year old at the time, was so profound.
I can't even describe the combination of emotions this gave me. I played Secret of Mana with my brothers when I was 13, not long before my older brother left home. We were growing apart back then and all really grew apart as adults; I rarely see my brothers any more. Playing Secret of Mana together was sort of the last activity I can really remember all three of us being into together. I really want to play it again with two of my roommates. There's no way my real brothers will ever have time for me like that again, but god damn it's awesome to have an adopted family of sorts in this crazy anarchist commune in Brooklyn!
Feelin ya, Same story here... :(
woooo read your answer causes the same feeling as hear the music
sorry to read that.
Cherish the time you had with them...Also let them know you miss those days. Even if they're too busy and can't play anymore, you can still let them know those times were important to you. Growing up sucks for sure :(
This is a fantastic comment. You are a good storyteller. I used to play this game with my big sister. We, too, drifted apart. But when we were young, I loved and admired my sister so much. And I got into RPGs because of her, and I write because of RPGs. Now I have kids, and I want them to play Secret of Mana, Chrono Trigger, FF6, and other classics - so they can experience GREAT storytelling!
For so many who grew up playing Super Nintendo, this game was always overlooked. But that's why I loved this game, because it was a real gem! Great story, smooth gameplay mechanics, beautiful BGM score, and everything else Square had to offer during the golden age of RPGs. This game was way ahead of its time.
"There are no words that can truly capture the memories this game stirs up.
Along with Chrono Trigger and Zelda: Ocarina of Time, I close my eyes and feel like I can journey back to the best moments of my life.
Everything was simpler, more...magical. I know you all understand what I mean.
Sending a hug from Brazil."
Seems like everyone's got a story from their childhood about this game in the comments. Bittersweet memories and times that will never be again. But there always new moments of joy to come if we make them happen.
Omg suddenly youtube is separating each track on the search bar!! ♥♥♥
This is one of those games where you realize years later that something as insignificant as how the menu was laid out was actually quite brilliant, and possibly one of the best mechanics ever implemented into a game. No character had to be listed wasting menu space. It was around the character and you knew it was their menu.... with an emphasis on recognition through images of the items instead of just lines of text and a small cookie-cutter icon. Your eyes would naturally dart around the screen in circular patterns instead of left to right... up and down. Thinking about that... it probably helped reduce eye strain; the furthest concern in a young mind within the dark. Memory would improve as we learned which weapon/spell/item meant which part of the rotation we were on depending on which character last used what. Opening a menu was a bright Bu-WEEE!.... and closing was a ZEEEuuuoooh!
I'm a UI/UX designer and I find the menu really annoying, yes it's disruptive, but playing the remake and noticing they kept the menu style... what a paaaain it is to go trough the objects and stuff that way. I find it slow and unpredictable, you have to rely on memory to get it right, and it shouldn't be that way.
I feel sweet sadness while knowing that those times, where I could play games like this four hours, alone and with friends, are long gone and will never come back. Every thing has its time, they say.
It will never be the same, that's for sure. However, if you make sure to put your needs as a priority, you can create the time for you again.Do not let societal circumstance steer you in a direction that takes away what life should be for you as an individual.
By far the most beautiful rendition of The Dark Star I've ever heard. The subtlety of the background is so thoughtful. Incredible.
his darkstar version is an beautiful
So perfection does exist, and great music is still being produced after the new millennium started. I'm blown away, thank you! This is basically my 90's experience in a nutshell, great memories
When I need to escape the chaos of everyday rat racing, It's beautiful work like this that sets my imagination free again.
truly a masterpiece
Just found this after RebeccaETripp's medley. Very different vibe, but one that is also very much in line with the story. Instant sub at "Fear of the Heavens".
Me too!
This has the first arrangement of Meridian Dance I’ve loved 👍👍👍
It hits me in the feels like a mana beast on a catwalk.
I only played this game on emulator once many years ago and never finished it. Still, the music stuck with me in such a way it feels like I grew up with this game. A true testament to this game quality.
The music on this album is as deep and enchanting as I imagined the original 16-bit game music to be when I was engrossed in playing it as a pre-teen. When an artist has a true love and understanding of their source material, and the talent and skill to really do it justice, it creates something special.
Thanks for creating and sharing this. It means a lot to all of us who share a love for this game.
This is pure love.
You're doing the Mana Goddess' work, sir.
Thank you for your beautiful piano renditions. I recently played Secret of Mana for the first time and fell in love with the atmospheric vibes and the beautiful music. I struggle with depression and have erratic sleep schedules because of it, but I've been listening to this album and the Chrono Trigger album a bunch to help me go to sleep at night and feel okay. Your music is a gift and I treasure it dearly.
First time I played this game was with my dad and mom when I was 5 just after it came out, and It took me a few years to play it again, but this time with my best friend. The only memories I've got of my childhood with my dad is with this game, Inindo, and uncharted waters.
Now I'm a father of a three year old, and I'm using this soundtrack to calm him down. To think this soundtrack might have a huge impact on my own son is great. I hope this games music stays in his heart as it has mine.
A beautiful nostalgic journey. The song selection was basically perfect! Although I would have wished for the theme when you're flying with Flammie, I think it's called "Prophecy". The song is arguably upbeat, heroic or something like that, but for me it's also very melancholic. Thank you very much for this!
This is so beautiful, they should've gotten you to do the soundtrack for the Secret of Mana remake
Perfectly timed for the remake of Secret of Mana! Of course, this album is much better overall than the remake's new soundtrack...
I logged in to say JUST this. Guess I'll just reinforce it. =D
Listened to this non-stop at my workstation at 1.5 speed when I was deployed 3 years ago. Got me through a whole lot of bullshit.
YES!!! I've been really looking forward to finally hearing this. ^_^ A Bell is Tolling and Into the Thick of It are so far my favourites! Edit: Now Flightless Wings is my favourite on here!
You should know that when I begin typing "youtube" into my search bar, the first thing that drops down for suggestion is your Chrono Cross Medley; that's how many times I've pulled it up. Recognized your picture here and just wanted to let you know!
Thanks! :O
I love your arrangements Rebecca! And I also love TPR!
Rebecca is just amazing! Just like this vídeo hahaha
Your SoM medley brought me here. I love all of TPR's stuff so I don't know how I missed this one for the last couple of weeks but I enjoy both your stuff and TPR. Thanks!
All of these are so beautiful, but Spirit Of The Night was especially touching to me. Wonderful renditions.
Between "RebeccaETripp" and "TPR", I cannot stop tearing up.All their songs they have done are so beautiful and sad and the beautiful again.I bought Secret of mana when it was released and still have my original copy.Oh the memories!
When I was a kid I had no idea there were official names. The beginning of the story reminded me of the Sword in the Stone, so I usually named my trio Art, Gwen, and Lance.
Funny that there is a song that's called fond memories, which is exactly what it is when you listen to it.
Incredible rendition of the song when you're banished from your hometown ! Thanks
Love it just love it
Into the thick of it sounds like being a child, happy, exploring a beautiful, deep forest in summertime without any worries...such a outstanding piece. Square Soft was a once in the history team of absolute genius individuals...from Chronotrigger to FF6 to Secret of Mana...even the Mystic Quest Game Boy game were absolute incredible when I was a young kid.
AGREED! I wish we could have games like them again... But ALL Corporations INSIST that ALL JRPGs now ONLY play like Devil May Cry... Sad times.
@@alinaitzal1173 The last good one im aware of is surprisingly Final Fantasy Dimensions on Android OS...
Oh i love this "remake". I'll hear this soundtrack to fall a sleep.
I need an TPR-Version of the "Secret of Evermore"-Soundtrack! Very soon!
Thank you so much for this! This will bring me happiness for many nights to come, I can already tell.
FINALLY! A medley I was waiting for :)
Thank you so much for uploading and sharing this. What a magical way to revisit these memories.
Sooooooo gods damn soothing and beautiful. This album took this music to lofty heights I didn’t even know it could go to. Well done
Been waiting for this for so long!!! Thank you so much!!! 100%
Another new amazing work!
thank u!!!! love this
Magnificent work, as always.
YES! I've been waiting for this! All this time listening to your FF albums (among others) I'm like I wish he had a SoM album and you totally came through.
I bought and played the Seiken Densetsu Collection last year.
I´d never played any of the Mana games prior to that, but even so, I felt instantly nostalgic hearing the SoM intro.
That entire OST just has an extremely palpable melancholy and nostalgic feel to it as it is.
It sticks with you.
I've been listening to this everyday since I bought it on Bandcamp. Love it. Will definetly be picking up the remake now.
sad they licensce such great music but dont use it for a remake *shrug*
Incredible as always. Might be new favorite! Thanks so much!
So, so beautiful. You're one of our inspirations, TPR!
Loving this!!
The part I really liked was Leave Time For Love. You did it a lot of justice, I thought. It reminded me of the "official" rendition of the Mana Fortress' theme from Seiken Densetsu 1, which was ATROCIOUS on the GameBoy and I hated it as a kid, but then I heard their classical rendition on the soundtrack and I was like, "Oh my god, that's how it was supposed to sound? I love that track now!" Yeah, it reminded me of that, although to be fair, it actually sounded decent in the game since the SNES wasn't just atrocious beeps. lol The first time I reached the Mana Fortress in SoM, I was like, "Now this is how it should have sounded on the GameBoy." I've always loved how one of the most peaceful dungeon themes is reserved for the last area in many of the franchise's games.
You should consider doing a mix of Terranigma's tracks. It has a few very melancholic, beautiful tracks in it. (Fittingly, the best ones bookend the entire game.)
Fantastic work! I absolutely love this!
So good!!!
amazing album!
such nostalgia. brings me so close to the bliss i remember of childhood.
❤
Excellent stuff! I never got into the Mana series, but I always love what you can do with your music!
Wow, awesome!
Gorgeous, as usual.
So, so good. Thanks for producing this amazing album.
When you release new content it is like surprise Christmas each time. Thank you very much. And while I don't expect you to do Xenogears, if you were to, I would find a way to return that beauty to the universe.
Beautiful

This is amazing. You can tell you have great respect for the source material. A+ I love your channel.
Thank you for this. It is very lovely.
beautiful
Thank so much for making this. It brings warm feelings to my heart. My favorite game of all time. The memories it brings me of my childhood, a time of care free life.
One of the quickest purchases of my life, and I'm kicking myself for catching this three months late. Have always loved the SoM soundtrack and you did a beautiful job with it here. Cheers from NYC!
Lord your stuff is amazing. Pumped!
How did I just now find this?! It's fantastic!!
LOVE this!!
Hammer !!! Danke
I've loved the Chrono Trigger & FF6 versions you've made- so glad to see you have Mana
I hardly comment on things, but when I do, it's worth commenting on. Thanks for this great rendition.
I hardly comment on other people's comments that don't apply to me, but when I do, it's because the dude making the comment is my real-life brother. Thanks for showing me this music, sir! Yes, kudos to the musician!
just perfect 💖
This is so gorgeous. I love it.
love to hear these songs sounding like this
This is so good!
Epic! Wonderful!! I am a big fan of yours!
just beautiful, just amazing
Beautiful work
A really beautiful recomposition, of all the music of one of my favorite game. Good job, and thank you
Great work, as usual! It is a joy to listen and a shame I can't play the remake with your interpretation of the songs!
Wonderful, thank you so much for the emotions!
Your music is so beautiful! Thank you for providing links as well.
Finally!!
this is perfect
Thank you.
I don't think there will ever again a soundtrack of a video game so incredibly beautiful. Besides the Chrono Trigger soundtrack the absolute best soundtrack to a game ever made.
I also love the Amiga soundtracks of Turrican 1 & 2...the Skyrim & Neverwinter Nights ambient tracks...but nothing compares to the genius of Secret of Mana & Chrono Trigger.
I love all your work but you have such a talent for remixing big hyped up battle themes into beautiful, calming music. Meridian Dance is one of my all-time favourites of yours, along with the Chrono Trigger battle theme and The Extreme from FF8.
this hit me, bought on bandcamp, beautiful renditions
Best music form SOM. Thanks
How I love you work..
Thank you for this.
Dark Star!!! Awesome job man!
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ I love that, SECRET OF MANA❤❤❤❤
So beautiful. Perfect hiking/drinking music... 🎶
This is awesome. A REMASTER IN LISTENING, USING THE SAME OLD SPECS AND GAMEPLAY THAT MADE IT GREAT IN THE FIRST PLACE.
Beautiful
This is beautiful it helps me go to sleep very fast 😊😊
TPR - i want to personally thank you so much for doin these -=- i actually cried a little hearing some of these, like "A Curious Tale" for example -=- i do wonder why ya didnt do "the Legend"; maybe in the future -=- please keep doing what you're doing...
wauw, I'm listening to this as i'm typing, I get up my coutch and rewind song nr 3! Instant love! (reminds me of aphex twin)
Just perfect
