This isn't even a contest. Find Your Way is the absolute biggest yawn fest of a dungeon theme, and I have no clue what anyone finds good about it.

Yet... I can't bring myself to vote for FFVI's Ending Theme. It certainly doesn't need my help anyways... which is sad, since it's nothing more than a clever medley. Still... a clever medley is better than a retardedly slow moving, uninspired ambient piece anyday. But I can't vote myself for the enemy... so I shall vote for nothing

Go there to vote.

Dave just goofed on the HTML tagging, is all.

And the fact that Find Your Way is all the way here makes me very sad.

Vote: Find Your Way

I love this piece. I could listen to it all day. Medley...err, I mean Ending Theme, while good, just doesn't do it for me. Vote Find Your Way, although I think it will be all for nought.

I'm going to go for the VI Ending because it makes me smile.

I'm surprised there is a contest here. Regardless of Find Your Way's atmospheric qualities, it doesn't compare to an excellently arranged medley of some of the best character themes ever written complete with an awesome coda... and more. "Ending Theme" is a classic and while I don't think it will win this contest, it deserves a place at least in the last 16.

Why do you steal my words from my head?

I love Ending Theme, or most of it. All the leitmotifs coming back, especially how Gogo's Theme was arranged, its entry, its exit, etc. I love it. And I always love me some Edgar and Sabin. I don't know what's so great about that piece.

Find Your Way....zz..what, music? Where? You must mean Ending Theme!

"Ending Theme" my friends. Though I'm not a big fan of the medley arrangement, it's still a potent piece and really rocks accompanying the game's final scene.

Ending Theme (FFVI) 62.50 % (25)
Find Your Way (FFVIII) 37.50 % (15)

Pow.

Its a shame to see it go. "Find Your Way", imo, is one of the biggest underrated tracks on the FFVIII OST.

Probably so, but one of Uematsu's best 16 compositions ever? I think not!
