Your shrine deserves all the nice words! :D :D lol I'm impressed at you knowing most of the albums personally (THERE ARE SO MANY) and not just listing them by the way, but it makes sense since you did comment on so many on them...!

"The 6th Kingdom" is not my kind of music at all, but one thing I appreciate about your recommendation list is how it not only pulls from many different sources, but showcases how different the music genres can be even though they're all part of or tributes to the same game! (I listened to all of it even though back in the day of website juke boxes, I never showed any interest in those things. lol)

Confession: I can't stop listening to The Impresario (Opera Sequence) ever since I discovered it yesterday through Awakening! I've listened to it over ten times now and you know how long the track is. @_______@ (The "I'm the darkness, you're the starlight" gives me goosebumps and I will listen to the entire track just to hear that passage over and over, though of course the rest is just as excellent!)

I've also known OverClocked ReMix for over ten years, but never really visited or explored the site because the few times I was linked to it, it seemed on an entire level as far as music understanding goes, and always made me feel that it's not a place for a music noobie, even as part of the audience...! But with so many lovely finds thanks to you I think I'll take my time to explore remixes of old school RPGs sometime soon. :heart: :music2:

(THIS IS WHY I LOVE SHRINESSSSSSSSSSSSS They let you have an in-depth look at the reasons someone loves a thing and give you the opportunity to get to know and love the thing as well!!)

Awesome job, like always! I am impressed with how you managed that. I remember when I owned the KHII OST I had a list of all of the songs and such but I didn't know where to go from there... glad you had some creative flow and made a site! :D
please know that i am yours to keep, my beautiful girl.

@CuriousLittleBird: My secret is lots of lists that keep me organized :P

@Mikari: Thank you! :heart:

@Megan: Thanks! I've always had some content on this site, and a lot of it was the same, just presented differently. A fresh look after a couple of years helped a lot.

@Lethe: I listen to a ridiculous amount of FF music, it's kind of a problem. My iTunes library is a mess. But it certainly came in handy for this site!

I'm so glad you liked the playlist, even if not all the songs were to your taste! I tried to include a wide range of songs and styles, although I did end up sticking a lot of my favorites in, haha. And yes, The Impresario is absolutely incredible, and one of the most amazing arrangements ever put together. All three songs they did for the opera for Balance & Ruin are great, honestly.

(I highly recommend OC Remix, obviously; I too knew about it for a long while before I started diving into their music, and now I listen to it all the time. There's just so much talent there, it's unreal.)

Thank you so much for the lovely comments, I really appreciate it :heart: :music:

This is so awesome Larissa! I love that you decided to shrine a game OST, and the layout rocks!
