Sephiroth's true theme that people tend to forget

Recommended Posts

When you ask someone about Sephiroth's theme they'll always say One Winged Angel

 

But in fact Sephiroth's first theme that existed even before One Winged Angel was called "Those chosen by the Planet"

 

 

Which plays almost every time he appears in FFVII(aside from the final boss theme)

 

Heck even Square forgot about this theme in Crisis Core and Dissida as they never played that theme during cutscenes involving Sephiroth as they never made any remix of it and instead kept spamming One-Winged Angel

 

Don't get me wrong I love One Winged Angel so much but at least they should've remixed this theme for the sake of variety instead of putting One Winged Angel everywhere Sephiroth appears

I thought this was gonna be a joke at first, but that's actually a really good point. This song shows up along with Sephiroth a lot more than one winged angel does.

One Winged Angel only shows once in FFVII and that's one of the reasons it became more epic

 

Later games however kept on spamming one Winged Angel,like that battle between Sephiroth and Genesis in virtual Junon in Crisis Core,One Winged Angel should've never been played there as that was waaaaay before Sephiroth's insanity and "Those Chosen by the Planet" would've fitted more at the very least

I always liked Birth of a God the best out of the songs used for Sephiroth in FFVII, to be honest.

You mean the one that plays during the Bizzaro Sephiroth battle??

 

Yeah that was awesome

 

 

Although the fight itself(if you're divided into two teams instead of one) can be summed up with:STOP F***KING HEALING!!!

Square Enix prefer the real true theme.

This is actually the theme, with OWA being only his battle theme.

Like Dancing mad and Kefka theme (that's the name for it lol, there is a reason ), that kefka's battle theme is only well for battles, not when he appear, with kefka theme being heard most of the time, OWA.is only his battle theme, with TCbtP plays mostly.

Well this is his "appearence" theme.

Like Kefka theme didn't play when he appeared in disidia,and like that Golbez Clad in Dark didn't apear, (only in DLC for battles in 012, but not when he apeared on the story) this too doesn't appear, not that I am saying that the shuldn't use them, sure, the game as his themes, but use theme for a little..

As for Crysis Core, well most of the time sephiroth is hero this game, but this should have be done at niblehem with sephiroth betreyal.

One Winged Angel technically isn't his true theme, but it's more iconic, which I guess is why people associate it with him more than Those Chosen by the Planet.  I do agree, though, that it's getting to be a trite overused.  Birth of a God is epic, too.  I wouldn't mind seeing a Sephiroth battle in KH with that music.

Those Chosen by the Planet and Birth of a God sound cool. But One-Winged Angel has that... feeling which makes it good for battles and such, like the boss fight in KH1. Not sure about how it's used in other FF games though, so its use there might not be the best. 

Wait... why can't they all be his themes? : P I mean, look at all the tracks Ansem gets.

Exept for that one part in Crisis Core I guess where Sephiroth and Gensis are fighting, I wouldn't say One-Winged Angel overused.As far as I remember we only hear it when Sephiroth is fighting and ''Those chosen by the Planet'' is not suited for battles. I guess they could bring "Birth of a god" more often since that was a pretty good music, but me I'll never get tired of it.I can't imagine fighting Sephiroth in Kingdom Hearts with an other music playing,that would ruin the fight for me xD .

 

I'd imagine if they we're to bring back" Those chosen by the Planet'' it would be during a cutscene, that would be nice.

Don't get me wrong I love One Winged Angel but they spammed it so much more than necessary

 

How about next time we battle Sephiroth in KH3 we hear a nice remix of "Birth of a god"

 

That theme was awesome

Square Enix prefer the real true theme.

So they keep spamming it until it loses it's feel?

 

Kefka has two themes:His own theme and Dancing Mad

 

Sephiroth at least should use one of this other themes like Birth of a god for the sake of variety

 

variety is the spice of life y'know

I like all 3 tracks of Sepiroth though One winged angel scares the shit out of me...dont know why though.

It plays suddenly after the screen blacks out when you defeat Bizzaro Sephiroth.....then Safer Sephiroth comes out and it's sooo freakin EPIC!!!

 

That's how One Winged Angel is supposed to be used....and personally the Ps1 version of the theme is the best in my opinion,I hated the Advent Children version of it and while the other remixes were good but none of them matched the perfection of the original

I agree. One-Winged Angel gets kind of boring after hearing it over and over again. This is especially true to Kingdom Hearts since he's a superboss in KHII and I still haven't beaten him. I also love One-Winged Angel as much as the next person, but no need to get repetitive, Square Enix.
