It's been 25 years and I'm still not over one of the greatest songs to grace JRPGs
Suteki Da Ne hasn't lost any emotional weight since 2001.
In the realm of video game music, Final Fantasy 10's soundtrack continues to captivate gamers, 25 years after its release. One track, in particular, stands out as a pinnacle of the game's audio design - Suteki Da Ne. This poignant composition accompanies a significant emotional moment, where Yuna and Tidus share a tender kiss as they dive into the sparkling waters of Macalania Woods.
The song's ethereal Japanese vocals and exquisite orchestration evoke a sense of melancholy and romance that has left fans in tears since its inception. While Final Fantasy 10 introduced a higher level of vocal tracks compared to previous installments, Suteki Da Ne remains unparalleled in its beauty and impact. It has managed to maintain its timeless appeal, even as newer games have attempted to replicate its magic.
Despite the passage of time, Suteki Da Ne continues to be a cherished piece of gaming history, a true testament to the power of music in video games.
