[Dave]

Perhaps another tough one here, but one of the easier ones in this round. Vote here (http://www.squareenixmusic.com/uematsu.php). :)

"Terra". I love "Airship", but it feels pretty generic next to "Terra".

[Zhetty]

"Airship"; fun themes like this are my weakness.

[migglie]

Terra. I really don't see the Airship hype to be honest. It's fun to be sure and a decent track but not so much as to have come this far. Terra, for all its popularity, rightly deserves praise for its basic yet memorable melody, its tragic-yet-hopeful feel. Of course it's losing...if there's one thing I've learnt from this contest is that faith in the taste of others is not worth having. :p

[TheShroud13]

Terra, for all its popularity

Because popularity is something that needs to be overcome :p

And "Airship" certainly deserves to have come this far, after all, you know, "Main Theme" did ;)

I really dont' like "Airship" from FFXI so almost anything would beat it in my opinion, but Terra is definitely a worthy song, although still not one of my favorites for this contest. Vote Terra!

[Solartide]

Airship. Never liked Terra. In fact, I think that the only reason it got so far is that some people confused the 2 Terras.

Gasp. Gasp.

Disrespect for the last good leading female in a final fantasy game?

Gasp.

Airship is just... I can't take it seriously. The guitar is nigh-respectable, but that synth is like a smack in the face. I find it all very clashy. And then the drums, and the arps, and I'm shaking my head in dissapointment. The choir/brightness synth is too little too late to save this generally unimaginative piece.

EDIT: Besides, this reminds me of Terra from FFVI, anyway. It smacks of esperness.

[McFate]

Terra. One of my favourite themes from FF IX overall. :)

Airship is bland. Pleasant, but bland.

[Scherzo]

Airship is nice, and I like the orchestration -- a relaxing synth mixed with acoustic guitar. But when the drumset comes in . . . . ouch. It's just too cheesy for me.

So Terra gets my vote this round.
