    Y'know what I realized?
    While the motif and overall direction of the song is different, there's a very similar feel to a major portion of another game's feel from 0:42 onward here.
    Shadow of the Colossus - mainly with The Opened Way, but it works with some of the others too. While that one makes you *feel* like you're fighting a massive giant and winning, this one makes you feel like you're fighting something nearly as mighty.
    And either way, it's a _powerful_ thing.
