Am I totally batshit crazy, or does Blind Faith remind anyone else of a song from Megaman Legends/Megaman 64? 

The section of Blind Faith I'm talking about is the melody that kicks in at 5:41.

I'm not familiar with that particular game, so I couldn't say. But the unison in Metropolis Part 1 always made me think of Mega Man for some reason. Not a specific song, but just the style. Actually, a lot of DT music has that Mega Man vibe, and I love Mega Man music so that's okay with me.

I used to love that game! Can you figure out where it is in the game?

And all of IaW was lifted from Sonic 2. It's like they're not even trying!

Jaffa

Just to be clear, I certainly didn't mean to imply that it might be lifted.  I'm not even sure how similar the melodies are, because I can't remember exactly where in the game the song I'm talking about was.  I just wondered if anyone else knew what I was talking about. Apparently not, so maybe I'm just hearing something that isn't there.

No biggie Jaffa.  Just having a little fun.  DT is so diverse in their arrangements, it doesn't surprise me that similarities are common.

Black Clouds & Silver Linings is actually a concept album about Cloud Strife and his battle with Sephiroth.

The Count Of Tuscany is Jenova.

A Nightmare To Remember is when Cloud *thought* he was in SOLDIER, but wasn't, hence why it is so hard to recall.

Jaffa

I found what I was looking for and it's definitely not as similar as I was thinking it might be.   :lol

Surrounded is about that one time in that video game when you're surrounded by enemies.... damn I actually can't recall the name of the game, does anyone know?

Also, I just realized. Sonic 2 is usually considered superior to Sonic 1. And most people prefer I&W to WDADU. Coincidence?

^ Lol quite true. I prefer Awake over Images and Words the same way I prefer Sonic 3 & Knuckles over Sonic 2 o_O.

Personally, I like Awake and I&W pretty much equally, but I do prefer S3&K over S2.
