Has anyone ever listened to the soundtrack? I might sound like a total FF fanboy right now, but to be honest, I'm not a huge FF fan. I've only ever played this game, and the music is some of my favourite. it's obviously mostly classical music, but there's some rock/prog/other influences thrown in there. It even feels like a concept album throughout some parts as it has various recurring motifs.
My favourite song is probably Dancing Mad, the final battle theme(s). It is basically a giant classical/prog epic, containing 4 parts. Words cannot express how awesome it is. You have to hear it for yourself.
