If Utada didn't come back for KH3 and they introduced a new song for the intro, what song would you want it to be?

Posted

I'm just interested, I mean it's certainly a possibility. It's about time we had a new intro song and not Simple and Clean/Sanctuary for the billionth time. Hopefully she will return with a new song, but what if she didn't?

It's not making a new song for every single game.  They release new songs for the numbered titles: KH1 (Simple and Clean) KH2 (Sanctuary) and then KH3 it'll be expected.  They reuse those songs then on the handhelds cause it's cheap.  I think in their KH budget they more than likely have the money for a new song for KH3, like they did with KH1 and KH2.  It's what keeps the series fresh and sets the numbered titles apart from the handheld games.  There was already news that Utada has been approched to record a new song for KH3 and she is currently undecided, but more than likely whatever her decision there will be a new song.  It's what they do.  It's what makes the numbered titles stand out. And it's about time we got a new song.  You shouldn't let your nostalgia for the intro music of the past halt progression.  If you want to hear it, you play the other games again.  

Firstly ,if I wanted to hear the songs I would go over Youtube and listen to them (although you can't just now because of the new copyright stuff etc) .Secondly , I don't think it's really necessary to make a new song . Companies want to have a high profit by a low cost . That means they have to "keep" it cheap . Of course , if they see that "cheap" does not work ,then they will have to do something more "impressive" which will take some more time to be created and maybe some more money . But Square Enix has realised that its sales are big enough that they don't even need to make something fresh for the "gamers",fans call them whatever you like . As I said before , "fresh" should come in the next Saga so that it can still attract people .

And as I said before, 14 years for a new song ISN'T an option.

Fair enough, if that's what you think feel free.  I've already said my point.  We'll see when it's out or news is out on who's recording for them.

 But surely they would also want to attract those who have only played KH1 + 2 aswell? and part of that would require a new song since those people would be used to it.

People who have only played KH1 and 2 don't really know what the series is all about . Square Enix "makes no use of them" because they are just simply a small part of their sales .  Most of Kingdom Hearts fans are likely to own most games of the series . And those are the "customers" that Square Enix counts on .

If I hear Simple and Clean again for the main theme, I'll lose my goddamn mind.

What Mickey said. I wholeheartdedly agree with him. In fact, I probably feel more strongly about it. FOURTEEN YEARS is TOO DAMN LONG to wait for another fukcing song. End of fukcing story.

 

For that fact ALONE there needs to be a new one. They've got two different songs for the two main games, so might as well make a new song and keep the pattern going ON TOP of FOURTEEN YEARS BEING TOO DAMN LONG. I don't give a shit if you think it wouldn't feel right, even though you'd be wrong anyways. 

 

14 FUKCING YEARS? NO.

If you want like 6 new songs for KH intoductions ,go ahead ,be my guest . 

I'd like some other japanese pop artist replace her.

 

What is wrong with Simple and Clean / Sanctuary ? I mean they are both pretty good songs . I would count on  the slow version of Sanctuary this time . 

They're overused.

What the hell are you screaming about? Kingdom Hearts has not been out for that long unless you're getting worked up by something else.

For a more mysterious feel Kokia would be excellent

How about a duet? Like this one:

 

They got always Charice for as replacement ;).

She got very good lyrics in her songs.

Rollin, by Limp Bizkit.

 

What? People want a more "mature" Kingdom Hearts, don't they? 

As much as I enjoy 'Simple and clean' and Sanctuary', if I had to suggest a new intro, it would have to be from one of the singers from TWEWY. 

The soundtrack from that game was done incredibly well, and if done in a more orchestral/softer style, it would fit well with KH.

Utada, no one else will do...

I think for the third title of the series we should go for something more contemporary...say something more "ghetto"...something like this

*Nomura sees this post*

 

Makes this video the opening of KH3.

Well, if Utada didn't come back to make the theme song for KH3, then Ayumi Hamasaki would be a suitable replacement!  She has a lovely singing voice, and she's made theme songs for video games before, like Tales Of Xilia for example.  But in the end, that's for Nomura to decide.  But if in the end a new song isn't introduced, then I'd be satisfied hearing Sanctuary again, since Simple and Clean has been overused.  But yeah, the theme song debacle is a mystery for now. :3
