I'm glad Uematsu is finally getting the recognition he deserves. Aerith's Theme truly is a masterpiece, I'm not surprised they chose this song out of all his compositions. It's beautiful to play and to hear.

Considering I'm not much of a fan of mainstream classical music but adore a lot of Uematsu's music, this is awesome!
Thanks for posting this, Beatrix! x3

I remember voting for this, the SE facebook page released a post asking people to vote for Aerith's Theme. It very much deserves to be part of the list.

Wow this is amazing! I wonder how SE feels knowing that Aerith's theme is up there =3 maybe they'll make a poster or a doll/music box(better then the first one) as tribute to Aerith. |

This actually made my day, Aerith truly deserves this, since the character gets alot of abuse from haters. Uemastu is a very talented musician and will be remembered as one too ^^ I'm happy for him that one of his music made it up there ^^ Congratulation Uematsu-san

Wow, that's amazing! It even beat out Beethovan's 9th and Vivaldi's Four Seasons! That's totally awesome! Of course, Aerith's theme is a beautiful piece of music - it deserves to be there. Congrats, Uematsu! ![]() |

There has been some hating commenting because a lot of the people who voted for it aren't Classical FM listeners. I'm not a listener and not really a fan of classical music but I voted for this piece because it is a beautiful, wonderful and emotionally driven masterpiece. There's nothing wrong with fans who want to share the love of something that has touched their hearts with the rest of the world and hopefully some listeners who have never heard this will realise just how beautiful it is and they might dive into Uematsu's collection and broaden their horizons of their music tastes. Its also a great step for regconision of how talented Uematsu is but also that video games aren't violent, brain dead, useless things that teenage boys play in their basements. A lot of heart and love goes into making video games so its wonderful to have things like this be treasured.

I listen to a lot of classical FM... so those haters can kiss my ass. ![]() This song is the most beautifully composed song ever made for a game(or film, I should add). |
