Sure, if jazz isn’t your thing, that’s understandable, but this song just hits so many of those guilty pleasure notes. Thankfully, we’re beginning to get into the “so bad it’s good territory” with this gem. You then begin pressing the start button frantically, thinking to yourself “OH GOD HURRY UP MAKE IT STOP.” I chose the first verse because, when that first line leaves the singer’s lips, you know you’re in for it. I’ve been waiting for this moment all my life I know one thing that can break mine: these ridiculous lyrics. “Nothing can break my spirit” the lyrics read. It loops in perpetuity in the menu, reinforcing the singer’s resolve.
Super Street Fighter IV improved upon its predecessor in every way: Adding new characters, balancing the roster, and removing this song from the experience. Perhaps the lyrics match thematically with the angst Tidus feels toward his father, but, really, who cares about Tidus anyway? You know, you know, you know, you know, that you will. Go now, there's no better plan than to do or to dieįree me, pray to the faith, in the face of the lightįeed me, fill me with sin, and get ready to fight Go, into the sand, and the dust, and the sky The delivery is so deadpanned, and, if that wasn’t enough, it’s followed by a lazy “Fight!” chant, scratching at your earholes over and over. Halfway through, the lead singer even adopts an Axl Rose Guns N’ Roses’ “Civil War”-like bridge. This track isn’t exactly a shining example of metal in games, especially considering how jarring it is in comparison to the rest of the soundtrack. Then, amidst these inventive, sweeping and melancholy tunes, the game caps off with a battle against Jecht set to … this. Final Fantasy X brought us many more memorable Uematsu classics, including the battle theme, the Seymour Omnis battle, and “To Zanarkand”.
There’s the playful “Chocobo Theme”, the chilling “One-Winged Angel”, and epics like “Dancing Mad”.

Nobuo Uematsu, the composer for nearly every Final Fantasy game, is responsible for just about every series track you know and love. If you need a palate cleanser after listening to that, here’s another late ‘90s jam with even worse computer animation.įinal Fantasy X - “Otherworld (Jecht Battle)” If it’s any consolation, this song might actually be more fun than the game itself. But then the words quickly devolve into repetition, followed by nonsensical lines like “Itty Bitty Bup” drilled into our ears. We’re told it’s time to rock, we get that much. Enjoy!Īdmittedly, this one is actually pretty catchy, if only because the lyrics are largely gibberish. We decided to challenge/punish ourselves and go the extra mile just for you, dear reader. Also, you won’t see songs like the infamous “Cole Train Rap” of Gears of War because double dipping on our list of worst and weirdest gaming music would be too easy. Fret not, though, because we’ve gathered tracks - some fairly new, some of which may have gone unnoticed - for your listening displeasure. This list is dedicated to the goofiest, unintentionally hilarious lyrics in games, so brace your ears for everything from horrendously reimagined RPG anthems to main menu music from hell.ĭisclaimer: At this point, songs like the notoriously embarrassing DK Rap and the mediocre “I Am The Wind” of Castlevania: Symphony of the Night are so well-represented on these kinds of lists, we think it’s time we retire them into the video game song facepalm hall of fame. Sadly, we’ve also seen our fair share of clunkers, songs that fall so flat we would feel a pang of shame if a family member or significant other were to walk in the room. Since the dawn of the CD-based video game, creators have treated us to some unforgettable, studio-quality songs, ditties that appear during our playing experience that are rewards unto themselves.
