starryeyes that's my favorite orb, if only because it literally took me years to find. As a very young child, Spyro games to taught me to be adventurous and explore my world. Some of the most beautiful memories I have, really, thanks to these games.
My nostalgia for this game is crazy-huge. Does anyone else find themselves thinking about the impact games can have on someone's life while listening to this? I mean, merely listening to this brings a tear to my eye and reminds me of a time in life where there wasn't so much stress. Life was simple back then, all I had to worry about was doing my easy second-grader homework, and there were no anxieties about the troubles of teenage/adulthood. It was just me, a PS1, and my faithful old purple pal. Man, the original Spyro trilogy has a way of making me get really cheesy lol.
hey, just so you guys know, i have written a bit on how music of video games influenced my later self. this is a long piece but i think a lot of people here will recognize themselves in this story. anyway; enjoy: medium.com/@naif_/glimpses-of-a-90s-childs-musical-journey-ee416e3345e1
Spyro 2 is the best in the series. Great level design, perfect difficulty, amazing sound, visuals, and gameplay for the Playstation... Not to sound weird but I always like to take the whirlwind to the highest tower where you can hear the wind blow. Then you take off and fly slowly to that pillar of land outside the edge of the castle wall. Those moments that stick with you are what make a videogame amazing.
G4nst4Ch33se It is named 'Magma Cone', from Spyro 2. Neat level actually, and it had a great song. I hated Hunter's challenge there, failed my fair share of tries.
G4nst4Ch33se Saving the little people from the dinosaurs twice, yes. The second one was very difficult. I can't even recall if I could do it. Wow, it's been a long time.
Isn’t weird how most of our troubles are made by other people and yet they where once innocent children once? You know what I should probably go to sleep...
100% exactly the same. I was once a happy child who played happy games and had happy memories of all kinds, who then turned into a lonely, sad adult, who lost the peace inside of me because everything lost sense for me. If my life was a dream... I wish that dream came to an end. The beautiful story of it has already been told, and I love with my heart those memories of when I was once a happy, and a carefree... lost in time.
if only autumn plains, summer forest and winter thundra exist! that would make my dream come true. Just that ambience...All the Spyro backrounds, the skies, everything was just beautiful!
I feel the same way... It's incredible how those sceneries, imprinted on our minds at a young age, live on. Anytime I see landscapes in the real world that remind me of those fictional places, I have this feeling inside that I'm sure stems from when I was playing the game. It's wonderful how the past enrichens the present in this way.
Im 22 years old, I'm not a religious person but damn, if a "Heaven" could exist I hope I could just go back intime and replay my favourite games.... Banjo Kazooie N64 --> Pokemon (first few generations)--> Spyro Trilogy, Ratchet and Clank trilogy, Sly Cooper trilogy, Simpsons Hit N Run ---> Being 15 playing Mw2 with all of my friends for hours at a day... Now I'm just busy with work, and at times life can be so fucking amazing but I'd kill to be a kid in those certain events of my childhood. Playing these old games now is still fun but its not the same. It can never be the same.. I'm not a kid or a young teenager, I just hope I could replay these games as a kid again or just play the games with my younger self or younger friends when we weren't all so busy. Rip
reading all the comments and listening to the music at the same time well it makes me feel sad knowing those childhood memories are in the past i remember my cousins coming over to spend the night and my grandma would like to see us play spyro and crash i miss those times it actually makes me feel pretty darn sad
+worksmagic89 Yup, and one day you will die, and unless there is some system or divine being that will somehow revive your consciousness, your consciousness will just vanish and everything that you ever lived will be as if they never happened. It's sad to most, but just because it's sad doesn't mean it can't be real.
Die?No,guys.You may think Death is the worst thing that can happen to a living being.But it is NOT!Death is just one unknown entity which we always face in reality due to the many dangers that lurk in this world.One who we will eventually meet when the right time comes.A time when we will sleep and make sweet dreams thanks to all of the great memories that we had during our lifetime.And when we wake up,not only will he greet us like old friends.He will also re-introduce us to all of the friends we have made as well as our very own family knowing that despite the fact he can decay our flesh,he can NOT do the same thing with the bondings we have created with them over time.Knowing that we will relive with them the journeys we once had together in one single and endless one. EDIT: If there is one thing we should be doing right now is to thank God for keeping us alive and enjoy our beautiful lives as much as we can as well as balance the joy of it along with its torture.
You read my mind. That was my first thought. I always loved getting on top of the roof and just fly down to the ground again listening to this beautiful theme.
Just thinking about it gives me goosebumps. Even though the graphics are not as good as today's games, still the experience on the castle roof is absolutely breathtaking. The music, the atmosphere is extremely perfect.
A refreshing song that reminds us of the cooling autumn wind after a long and hot summer, rejuvenating ourselves as we look forward to experiencing the leaves changing into beautiful fall colors before they fall to the ground, drying up and making a satisfying crunch noise when stepped on. In this hub, you can climb up and glide to a certain spot that has an updraft that will make you go up very high and you can glide all the way back down, enjoying the beauty of the world below you as you descend on your way back, enjoying this magical music that pleases the soul.
This level and the music are about the closest thing to what I think heaven must be like. One of the most beautiful areas in a video game in my opinion
+NovaCrackers You're not alone there, bud. So... much... nostalgia... I usually don't listen to this song because I just get so emotional. That's how big of an impact these games left on me.
Reminds me of something you would hear upon entering the gates of Heaven or something. Very peaceful piece of music and somewhat melancholy too in a way or perhaps i just cry too easily idk.
I always stayed in this world just to listen to the music forever :) I'm 23 now and still go back and play my old spyro games. This music now just brings back good memories and is so calming.
So, I remember when this game came out actually. I was very young. I wasn't even in kindergarten. My dad brought it home for me. Of course being a child, I never took good care of my games and it was scratched to all hell and I couldn't play it. The first time I played this game again was about fourish, fiveish, years ago. My brother found a copy at a local game store and bought it for me and I played it over again (finally beating it) Anyway, it was a couple of days before my Junior year of high school to start and my brother had his friend over. We all went outside, my room had an upstairs porch (I know it's called a balcony but, my balcony wasn't luxurious. There was box and shit all over it) and we smoked a hell of a lot of pot. After I came back in, I was feeling so damn good and started playing this game. I was in the autumn plains and this song came on and I was zoning out to it. It felt so amazing. It relaxed me so much. I probably sat on my bed for a good half hour, completely in a trance, just listing to this, and staring at a carpet. It was amazing. I'll never forget that night.
It's Incredible like this level was on my mind after all this 15 years. I'm just play spyro 2 Only for see this world. It's a perfect reproduction of the heaven... The sense of infinity and peace of that place is wonderfull. I'm serious, autumn planes is Magic
***** it is one of the few video game areas that i still regularly visit just for the sake of being there. it still feels as magical as i remember it from when i was playing the game as a child...
Love all of you guys. Spyro isn't just a videogame, it's peace, Memories of a childhood that lives inside us. When i sit in my garden and i listen to these soundtracks, i feel good, i feel vibes down my spine. It's something i can't explain. It's so beautiful to see so much people from late 90's - early 2000's raised by these games. Sorry for the english. Love by a 24 years old italian gamer and Spyro's lover
could someone plz bring me back those times, when the only wish i had was to soak in that front pool as in a bath..? or sit on the edge of the castle staring into the sky? or walk along the inner garden wall and overview my own realm of peace? or meditate on the farther island? or sunbathe on that small lawn by the highest tower? or climb it just to FEEL the wind..? *gosh*
I may not have grown up with Spyro, but the homeworld music in Spyro 2 tells me very important messages in my book. The way I see it, Summer Forest represents the joys of being out of school or college and spending time outside during a nice hot sunny day as well as the leeway from being out of work, and it symbolizes what feels like endless sunlight and happiness, and all the hope that we seek landing among us like a butterfly. Autumn Plains represents not only the changes of nature all around us with the leaves changing colors, the trees shedding their leaves, temperatures getting cooler, days starting to get shorter and sunlight becoming less, but also the changes in life that we all go through, such as kids returning to school, adults returning to college and going back to work, but even the Autumn Plains music evokes hope and happiness between all those uncertain changes in life as well. And then Winter Tundra represents the sign of hope and happiness even in the darkest and shortest of days where what was before full of color and sounds of nature is now coated in black and white and dismal quietness. The way Winter Tundra's music sounds, it's kinda the sound of hibernation in my book, as it also represents that the school year for children is only halfway through, and adults and college students are nearly worked to their limit, and there's still half a week before the holidays, but it also evokes a feeling of warmth and coziness among the times that it's almost too cold to be outside. In my opinion, Spyro 2 has the best and most unique music in the whole franchise.
I hope They make a time machine Just so... I can go back to when the classic generation was out And people in my family weren't dying and I was happy for once. ^^v I can dream.
How one song can bring back so many memories... thinking about how life was entirely different as a child, I felt as I would live forever, everyday was full of energy, all those thoughts and wonder and desires of the past, and it’s all contained in a brain... all this from hearing a song... this song makes me feel like I transcend reality... incredible... thank you Spyro, you’re forever apart of me
man this brings back memories, just bought the reignited trilogy and wow, definitely had a tear in my eye when I stood on top of the tower and hearing the wind, amazing.
I teared up when standing behind the pool, looking out at the pool and the portal to Skelos Badlands and watching the leaves fall from the trees. This was the first console game I ever played as a kid, and it holds a special place in my heart.
Summer of 1999, when I was first introduced to Playstation. A bug's Life was our very first game. Then playing demo discs Brave Fencer Musashi Crash Bandicoot Warped ( midnight run) Bust a move 4 Medievil Wild 9 And the pizza hut green disc Playing Ape Escape And of course Crash Team Racing!!! (I would be laughing my ass off, blasting the other racers with bombs and missiles, and laying beakers and TNT/NITROS when they were right in back of me!!😅🤣) As my final year in elementary school went on, I played Croc 2 (My dad got it for me for getting a good report card. I wanted him to buy me either Spyro 2 or CTR, but it was a little expensive for him at the time. $39.99 , which would be $60-$65 today and he didn't necessarily have the best paying job. He was barely able to get us by) and the first Spyro game for my birthday. Come every other Friday nights and Saturdays , my dad would take us to blockbuster to rent SPYRO 2 and Crash Team Racing! It was even more awesome when he would order us a Pizza and me and my siblings would entertain ourselves playing the games until the food arrived! Fun times knowing that we only had 5 days to complete as much of the games as we could before returning them. I loved being in Autumn Plains around 5-6 pm, Sunset, just like in the game. Then He got me Crash Bandicoot Warped for my second good report card. Come the last 2 1/2 months of elementary school, my aunt had surprised with an unexpected gift....SPYRO 2!!!!! I was so damn happy that I could play it indefinitely!!!! Man, how I loved staring at the holographic booklet. 😆🤣. Also, I was counting the days to the last week of school because on that Thursday, we would be going to a beach trip. So to make the time go by , I spent long hours trying to complete the game. Also watching THE MUMMY (1999) every single day for the last 2 months, the desert setting especially the sand made me think even more about the trip. And the desert levels SCORCH and SHADY OASIS would bring up THE MUMMY. Pokémon the first movie also kept me entertained to make that day come quicker. So come the last week, on Wednesday (day before the beach trip) , I get home at noon. My dad arrives 3 hours later and tells me that he has something for me. Takes me to his room, under his pillow was Crash Team Racing!!!!! My jaw dropped! I hugged him, told him he was the best dad!!! After finishing The MUMMY, I spent the rest of the day playing CTR!!!! Summer of 2000 Dear God 😢😭 I want to go back 22 years ago, erase the Playstation from my memory and relive that sensation all over again!! From demo discs, to slowly playing some of those full versions! Especially Spyro 2 and Crash Team Racing!!! I play this music at sunset on my phone and my heart starts racing and I get a lump on my throat!!! Remembering simpler times. 😢😭 😢😭
I remember as a child that I always felt sad whenever I heard this music. It would remind me that Summer Vacation was almost over and I would have to return to school, which, as a child, I absolutely hated. Now, I look back on this music with fondness and nostalgia...
Of all the worlds and of all the music I'm looking forward to experiencing in the Reignited trilogy, Autumn Plains is at the very top. I love the homeworld, I love how it looks, I love how you climb up and run through the castle, I love standing at the top of the castle and listening to the wind roar as you overlook the world, and I love the soundtrack, one of tranquility. My favorite area in my favorite game in the series.
Dear God this brings back memories! (': I always pictured me being a little girl being taken up by angles and floating above the sea and its just after sunrise so everything is peachy and warm, and the white clouds are gently wisping across my face. I smell the warm sea air and as I get closer to heaven the chorus of welcoming angels gets louder and louder until i'm gently layed down in a soft bed of clouds.
A part of this exact music is played on an episode of Breaking Bad. I recognized it because I've always loved it. Autumn Plains was my favourite home world when I was a kid and still remains my favourite to this day. I used to love hearing the wind at the top of the highest tower. I would glide down to the pool. I think that if I died that home world would be a part of my heaven :)
It’s sweet and funny you say that last part, I’ve always said if heaven is real and you can create your own, Autumn Plains would be mine. Music and all. That is if I’m good enough to get it. Lol
Every day after school, I got home, booted spyro 1 or 2 on the ps2 and deleted my old saves just to play the game over and over and over again. I'm so glad to be one of many who hold Spyro close to their heart. The reignited trilogy really brought it back, but nothing can beat the original. I'll never forget the purple boi who stood by my side while growing up.
Not only this beautiful game's song but also you guys are great. I feel so happy to see your comments to read about how your feelings are. I like them all. Spyro 2 reminds me my good memories from my childhood. I was playing this game over and over. I didn't know Englosh and I didn't even know that there is a thing called "Memory Card" . So, everytime I was playing from the beginning but I never got bored and never tired of playing the stages again. Sometimes I was leaving it open so that I could keep playing. I mostly paused or stayed in this stage cuz I loved it. The music, the atmosphere and jumping sheep. Idk who created this game and songs but I deeply thank for the people who's spent their time on this and created such a beautiful game. I'm not sure, maybe thanks to this game, I like different kind of musics like Ambient, Chillout, Chillstep and Meditation musics. I have this music on my phone and before I go sleep sometimes I listen to this. It makes me peaceful and relax, feel like flying in the paradise or in such a beautiful place.
the amount of nostalgia this brings to me in incredibly immense, me and my father use to mountain bike and this is a picture perfect version of where we use to go
Rilassarsi, godersi questi suoni magici di un gioco magico e pensare alla tua vita. Farsi sommergere dai ricordi di infanzia, dei bei momenti andati e dalle persone che non ci sono più. Non si possono spiegare le emozioni e la commozione che suscitano questa canzone e l'intero livello... specialmente quando arrivi in cima alla torre, con il dettaglio del soffio del vento, e puoi ammirare l'intero paesaggio. Nostalgia di bei tempi che non torneranno più.
For any fellow musicians out there, this sound can be heard in Omnisphere 2 as the "Paradise" preset. I spent all last week playing Spyro 2 and then jumped into Omnisphere and magically came across it. Pretty cool to hear in there!
This reminds me of when I was younger and my dad had a home theater in the basement we used to play all my videogames on. The same day I reached Autumn Plains I beat the final trainer in Pokemon Stadium and kept the trophy screen on untill my older brother got home from school. Memories ❤
The homeworlds in this game, and especially this one, had a surreal, magical medieval fantasy atmosphere to them that was often present in the first game but severely lacking in this game outside of the home areas. I've always loved this game, but it was a bit jarring to go from a level with goofy cartoon slugs talking in southern accents to this isolated fantasy landscape. I really wish that a game existed with the updated graphics from the Reignited trilogy that took place in a single, unified open world environment that was something like this or Winter Tundra (or both). It'd be like a kid-friendly Witcher 3 or something along those lines. Too bad it'll never happen.
Damn, this brings tears to my eyes. ;( I remember when I first played Spyro 2; it was during entire summer holidays! Best 2 months in my life, mainly because my grandpa was still alive.
I usually come to hear this song and I always like to read this comment, it's like a perfect cumpliment for the music. I'm 23 too and your words express exactly how i feel about remembering that days playing Spyro.
Video games.... controllable nostalgic addictive audio-visual art. What's cooler than that? Nothing. Whole worlds created out of nothing. There's nothing cooler than that.
That's some deep stuff. I'm only 17, and I already know what you mean. This game is counted among my childhood favorites. Life gets so hard when you're always dreaming, reaching but never touching, and struggling for something better. Natural beauty and wonder beyond imagining shall await those who just hold on, after a tough life. I hope we can all unite to make life simpler, easier, more tranquil. Let's set aside our greed, our pride, and our hate. Purge the darkness, and embrace the light.
I didn't even play the original spyro games just got the reignited trilogy, yet this music for some reason feels... nostalgic? I have no idea why but i love it?
I always remember Spyro 2 from my childhood days, will never ever ever forget sitting playing it, when life was simpler, the sky was bluer and my family happier. Times were slower then, everything easy, everything magical. Now I am 23 you realize as you get older that times get tougher and tougher.....and you grow older, forever remembering, forever dreaming of ....Spyro and autumn plains. Forever gliding. This soudtrack, this game, this level.... I shall never forget.
I remember playing this game when i was 5 over and over again ...roaming in this map for hours making little stories in my head with spyro and then flying from the top of the castle again and again..wish i could be back there..as pure as i were ..i regret wanting to grow up..those sure were the days..
I honestly cannot believe that beauty of this song. It is honestly indescribable. How did Insomniac create such a beautiful piece of music? I mean seriously? I want to know!
I still do this. The worlds of Spyros 1, 2 and 3 are too beautiful to forget. Especially Autumn Plains. I fear we may be losing sight of what video games are really about. Getting to walk around and have fun in someone else's imagination!

The home worlds were so comfy and peaceful.
That's literally one of my most vivid memories from childhood. Good times.
G4nst4Ch33se It is named 'Magma Cone', from Spyro 2. Neat level actually, and it had a great song. I hated Hunter's challenge there, failed my fair share of tries.
G4nst4Ch33se Saving the little people from the dinosaurs twice, yes. The second one was very difficult. I can't even recall if I could do it. Wow, it's been a long time.
Agreed with the whirlwind part, however I still like Spyro 3 most of them all.
There was nothing quite as satisfying than that long, peaceful glide from the top of the castle...
Yes! I used to do that as a kid. What an absolute beautiful ride it was.
Heaven is here
I wish I could still smile like I used to playing this
True that, back then there were no worries, everything seemed perfect, it was just you immersing yourself in this beautiful game.
Isn’t weird how most of our troubles are made by other people and yet they where once innocent children once?
You know what I should probably go to sleep...
Too relatable..
100% exactly the same.
I was once a happy child who played happy games and had happy memories of all kinds, who then turned into a lonely, sad adult, who lost the peace inside of me because everything lost sense for me.

It's wonderful how the past enrichens the present in this way.
Maybe they do, space is enornous, and perhaps there's a planet out there with scenery like that.
Maybe someone should recreate each world and have the player walk around in VR.
Very possible...just time consuming.
Hmm....
When it is winter vacation I know where I'm going to spend my entire winter vacation.
Everybody should know what I am talking about.
I would choose this hub world due to the fact Autumn is my favorite season.
I just cried listening to this for the first time in years.. I would give soul to have those summer days at Grandmas house back
This has such an ethereal, dreamlike quality
Im 22 years old, I'm not a religious person but damn, if a "Heaven" could exist I hope I could just go back intime and replay my favourite games.... Banjo Kazooie N64 --> Pokemon (first few generations)--> Spyro Trilogy, Ratchet and Clank trilogy, Sly Cooper trilogy, Simpsons Hit N Run ---> Being 15 playing Mw2 with all of my friends for hours at a day...

I'm not a kid or a young teenager, I just hope I could replay these games as a kid again or just play the games with my younger self or younger friends when we weren't all so busy. Rip
I now realize what made me love ambient music as much as I do now.
Sorry Brian Eno, but this is where it began.
Spyro will forever be my favorite video game💜
I'm crying. I think a human would never bee able to explain the beauty that comes out of this masterpiece...
reading all the comments and listening to the music at the same time well it makes me feel sad knowing those childhood memories are in the past i remember my cousins coming over to spend the night and my grandma would like to see us play spyro and crash i miss those times it actually makes me feel pretty darn sad

me too buddy...me too...
Can you hear that wind up atop the castle's roof?
Buddy I can't UN-HEAR it.
You are truly one with Avalar, my friend.
:3
You read my mind. That was my first thought. I always loved getting on top of the roof and just fly down to the ground again listening to this beautiful theme.
Just thinking about it gives me goosebumps. Even though the graphics are not as good as today's games, still the experience on the castle roof is absolutely breathtaking. The music, the atmosphere is extremely perfect.
Omg all these comments yo... I'm tearing up from the nostalgia....
spyro will be forever
A refreshing song that reminds us of the cooling autumn wind after a long and hot summer, rejuvenating ourselves as we look forward to experiencing the leaves changing into beautiful fall colors before they fall to the ground, drying up and making a satisfying crunch noise when stepped on. In this hub, you can climb up and glide to a certain spot that has an updraft that will make you go up very high and you can glide all the way back down, enjoying the beauty of the world below you as you descend on your way back, enjoying this magical music that pleases the soul.
Wow...you took my breath away with that. This and Summer Forest are some of my favorite tracks.
Imagine walking down that road like a kid with no worries while wind blows and you can hear the calm echo of this piece of art. Imagine.
I can`t wait for the Spyro reignted trilogy version fo Autumn plains.
@@Tyrik73how was it ?
@@markjackson5333 Surprised to get a Comment Response but it was Very Good as a Level.
@@Tyrik73 I was waiting for the same ☺️winter tundra hits hard
This level and the music are about the closest thing to what I think heaven must be like. One of the most beautiful areas in a video game in my opinion
This is one reason why i liked more spyro games than crash bandicoot games, but both were my faforite childhood playstation games
I like crash games more, but I admit the spyro sound tracks or better more times than not.
I love both
saaame dude great franchises
This song is so beautiful... it hurts. Maybe because of the nostalgia?
NovaCrackers Oh im not the only one :')
FifaTV WorldCup Definitely not, my friend. Definitely not.. :'(

Very peaceful piece of music and somewhat melancholy too in a way or perhaps i just cry too easily idk.
DarkAnomaly Hey, I don't see anything wrong with crying, especially with this amazing music.
I always stayed in this world just to listen to the music forever :)
I'm 23 now and still go back and play my old spyro games.
This music now just brings back good memories and is so calming.
how about now do you still come back ever?
@@louispearson8306 still do come back :)
Smoke up and relaxing playing spyro 2
This music just makes want go to beautiful places, stare at everything and take a trusty camera to capture it all. Maybe that's only me though.
So, I remember when this game came out actually. I was very young. I wasn't even in kindergarten. My dad brought it home for me. Of course being a child, I never took good care of my games and it was scratched to all hell and I couldn't play it. The first time I played this game again was about fourish, fiveish, years ago. My brother found a copy at a local game store and bought it for me and I played it over again (finally beating it) Anyway, it was a couple of days before my Junior year of high school to start and my brother had his friend over. We all went outside, my room had an upstairs porch (I know it's called a balcony but, my balcony wasn't luxurious. There was box and shit all over it) and we smoked a hell of a lot of pot. After I came back in, I was feeling so damn good and started playing this game. I was in the autumn plains and this song came on and I was zoning out to it. It felt so amazing. It relaxed me so much. I probably sat on my bed for a good half hour, completely in a trance, just listing to this, and staring at a carpet. It was amazing. I'll never forget that night.
It's Incredible like this level was on my mind after all this 15 years. I'm just play spyro 2 Only for see this world. It's a perfect reproduction of the heaven... The sense of infinity and peace of that place is wonderfull. I'm serious, autumn planes is Magic
+Jason001ita i feel that way, too.
*****
it is one of the few video game areas that i still regularly visit just for the sake of being there. it still feels as magical as i remember it from when i was playing the game as a child...
+Captain Aomaru vom Exekutivkomitee I just played it again and when I looked at the beautiful sky nostalgia just pierced through my heart.
Love all of you guys. Spyro isn't just a videogame, it's peace, Memories of a childhood that lives inside us. When i sit in my garden and i listen to these soundtracks, i feel good, i feel vibes down my spine. It's something i can't explain. It's so beautiful to see so much people from late 90's - early 2000's raised by these games.
Sorry for the english. Love by a 24 years old italian gamer and Spyro's lover
Your English is fantastic. no errors in sight.
could someone plz bring me back those times, when the only wish i had was to soak in that front pool as in a bath..? or sit on the edge of the castle staring into the sky? or walk along the inner garden wall and overview my own realm of peace? or meditate on the farther island? or sunbathe on that small lawn by the highest tower? or climb it just to FEEL the wind..?
*gosh*
I may not have grown up with Spyro, but the homeworld music in Spyro 2 tells me very important messages in my book. The way I see it, Summer Forest represents the joys of being out of school or college and spending time outside during a nice hot sunny day as well as the leeway from being out of work, and it symbolizes what feels like endless sunlight and happiness, and all the hope that we seek landing among us like a butterfly. Autumn Plains represents not only the changes of nature all around us with the leaves changing colors, the trees shedding their leaves, temperatures getting cooler, days starting to get shorter and sunlight becoming less, but also the changes in life that we all go through, such as kids returning to school, adults returning to college and going back to work, but even the Autumn Plains music evokes hope and happiness between all those uncertain changes in life as well. And then Winter Tundra represents the sign of hope and happiness even in the darkest and shortest of days where what was before full of color and sounds of nature is now coated in black and white and dismal quietness. The way Winter Tundra's music sounds, it's kinda the sound of hibernation in my book, as it also represents that the school year for children is only halfway through, and adults and college students are nearly worked to their limit, and there's still half a week before the holidays, but it also evokes a feeling of warmth and coziness among the times that it's almost too cold to be outside. In my opinion, Spyro 2 has the best and most unique music in the whole franchise.
I hope
They make a time machine
Just so... I can go back to when the classic generation was out
And people in my family weren't dying and I was happy for once. ^^v I can dream.
Probably one of the most beautiful and magical peices of music ever to come from a video game.
I always liked Autumn Plains. I loved to contemplate the great landscape while I was listening this music...
That masterpiece takes me back to the past and brings a tear to my eye... I love it.
Really that the channel that uploaded many Spyro musics extended to hours got deleted for some reason…
How one song can bring back so many memories... thinking about how life was entirely different as a child, I felt as I would live forever, everyday was full of energy, all those thoughts and wonder and desires of the past, and it’s all contained in a brain... all this from hearing a song... this song makes me feel like I transcend reality... incredible... thank you Spyro, you’re forever apart of me
Holy crow! Thank you so much for posting this song on here! And with such a lovely photo too!
haha you are one magic crafter
Silentevil7 Hehehe! Spyro maaaay have influenced the name a little bit! ;D
The Magic Crafter
haha i can relate, I took my name from games too,
Peaceful I would relax in my bed listening to this everyday and night jus to be in my peaceful world that I see in the future
This is my favorite hub world soundtrack. Appropriate, since autumn is my favorite time of year.
The hubworlds is Spyro 2 are the best in the series and I dare to say in all platformer games.
The sunset. And the tower. And the wind.
man this brings back memories, just bought the reignited trilogy and wow, definitely had a tear in my eye when I stood on top of the tower and hearing the wind, amazing.
I teared up when standing behind the pool, looking out at the pool and the portal to Skelos Badlands and watching the leaves fall from the trees. This was the first console game I ever played as a kid, and it holds a special place in my heart.
Summer of 1999, when I was first introduced to Playstation. A bug's Life was our very first game.
Then playing demo discs
Brave Fencer Musashi
Crash Bandicoot Warped ( midnight run)
Bust a move 4
Medievil
Wild 9
And the pizza hut green disc
Playing Ape Escape
And of course Crash Team Racing!!!
(I would be laughing my ass off, blasting the other racers with bombs and missiles, and laying beakers and TNT/NITROS when they were right in back of me!!😅🤣)
As my final year in elementary school went on, I played Croc 2 (My dad got it for me for getting a good report card. I wanted him to buy me either Spyro 2 or CTR, but it was a little expensive for him at the time. $39.99 , which would be $60-$65 today and he didn't necessarily have the best paying job. He was barely able to get us by) and the first Spyro game for my birthday. Come every other Friday nights and Saturdays , my dad would take us to blockbuster to rent SPYRO 2 and Crash Team Racing! It was even more awesome when he would order us a Pizza and me and my siblings would entertain ourselves playing the games until the food arrived! Fun times knowing that we only had 5 days to complete as much of the games as we could before returning them. I loved being in Autumn Plains around 5-6 pm, Sunset, just like in the game.
Then He got me Crash Bandicoot Warped for my second good report card.
Come the last 2 1/2 months of elementary school, my aunt had surprised with an unexpected gift....SPYRO 2!!!!! I was so damn happy that I could play it indefinitely!!!! Man, how I loved staring at the holographic booklet. 😆🤣.
Also, I was counting the days to the last week of school because on that Thursday, we would be going to a beach trip. So to make the time go by , I spent long hours trying to complete the game.
Also watching THE MUMMY (1999) every single day for the last 2 months, the desert setting especially the sand made me think even more about the trip. And the desert levels SCORCH and SHADY OASIS would bring up THE MUMMY.
Pokémon the first movie also kept me entertained to make that day come quicker.
So come the last week, on Wednesday (day before the beach trip) , I get home at noon. My dad arrives 3 hours later and tells me that he has something for me.
Takes me to his room, under his pillow was Crash Team Racing!!!!!
My jaw dropped! I hugged him, told him he was the best dad!!! After finishing The MUMMY, I spent the rest of the day playing CTR!!!!
Summer of 2000
Dear God 😢😭
I want to go back 22 years ago, erase the Playstation from my memory and relive that sensation all over again!!
From demo discs, to slowly playing some of those full versions!
Especially Spyro 2 and Crash Team Racing!!!
I play this music at sunset on my phone and my heart starts racing and I get a lump on my throat!!! Remembering simpler times.
😢😭 😢😭
@Ethentent
Such wonderful, beautiful memories!!
That have a special place in my heart.
Thanks for the ❤!!!
Summer Forest is the sound of childhood, Autumn Plains is the sound of adolescence, Winter Tundra is the sound of adulthood.
Spyro forever 💘🎮🎮🎮🎮
I remember as a child that I always felt sad whenever I heard this music. It would remind me that Summer Vacation was almost over and I would have to return to school, which, as a child, I absolutely hated.
Now, I look back on this music with fondness and nostalgia...
Of all the worlds and of all the music I'm looking forward to experiencing in the Reignited trilogy, Autumn Plains is at the very top. I love the homeworld, I love how it looks, I love how you climb up and run through the castle, I love standing at the top of the castle and listening to the wind roar as you overlook the world, and I love the soundtrack, one of tranquility. My favorite area in my favorite game in the series.
Dear God this brings back memories! (': I always pictured me being a little girl being taken up by angles and floating above the sea and its just after sunrise so everything is peachy and warm, and the white clouds are gently wisping across my face. I smell the warm sea air and as I get closer to heaven the chorus of welcoming angels gets louder and louder until i'm gently layed down in a soft bed of clouds.
Man, I'm crying.
A part of this exact music is played on an episode of Breaking Bad. I recognized it because I've always loved it. Autumn Plains was my favourite home world when I was a kid and still remains my favourite to this day. I used to love hearing the wind at the top of the highest tower. I would glide down to the pool. I think that if I died that home world would be a part of my heaven :)
I wonder how it will look in Spyro reignited trilogy.
I know! Im so excited to see it! I hope they don't rush it though
It’s sweet and funny you say that last part, I’ve always said if heaven is real and you can create your own, Autumn Plains would be mine. Music and all. That is if I’m good enough to get it. Lol
Every day after school, I got home, booted spyro 1 or 2 on the ps2 and deleted my old saves just to play the game over and over and over again. I'm so glad to be one of many who hold Spyro close to their heart. The reignited trilogy really brought it back, but nothing can beat the original. I'll never forget the purple boi who stood by my side while growing up.
Wow a 13 years old vid, this gonna be good :)
now a 14 years old
my favorite games from my childhood are spyro, crash bandicoot, ratchet and clank and of course jak and daxter
+TheRaulf22raptor Croc Legend of the Gobbos was brilliant too
Nicole Bonnett of course ! That little creature, oh, what times where those...
Good ones :)
+TheRaulf22raptor to hell with jak 2
that game was so hard q.q
This is proof that even Heaven can be found here on Earth..
well at least for 10 minutes and 44 seconds anyways
Not only this beautiful game's song but also you guys are great. I feel so happy to see your comments to read about how your feelings are. I like them all. Spyro 2 reminds me my good memories from my childhood. I was playing this game over and over. I didn't know Englosh and I didn't even know that there is a thing called "Memory Card" . So, everytime I was playing from the beginning but I never got bored and never tired of playing the stages again. Sometimes I was leaving it open so that I could keep playing. I mostly paused or stayed in this stage cuz I loved it. The music, the atmosphere and jumping sheep. Idk who created this game and songs but I deeply thank for the people who's spent their time on this and created such a beautiful game. I'm not sure, maybe thanks to this game, I like different kind of musics like Ambient, Chillout, Chillstep and Meditation musics. I have this music on my phone and before I go sleep sometimes I listen to this. It makes me peaceful and relax, feel like flying in the paradise or in such a beautiful place.
the amount of nostalgia this brings to me in incredibly immense, me and my father use to mountain bike and this is a picture perfect version of where we use to go
Every 1st day of fall this plays in my head. Good times!
breaking through the secret wall and climbing to the highest point in the game to do one huge spectacular glide. childhood man, childhood.
This one was always my personal favorite Spyro 2 world as a kid.
Rilassarsi, godersi questi suoni magici di un gioco magico e pensare
alla tua vita. Farsi sommergere dai ricordi di infanzia, dei bei momenti
andati e dalle persone che non ci sono più. Non si possono spiegare le
emozioni e la commozione che suscitano questa canzone e l'intero
livello... specialmente quando arrivi in cima alla torre, con il
dettaglio del soffio del vento, e puoi ammirare l'intero paesaggio.
Nostalgia di bei tempi che non torneranno più.
Now just think of that orb *Tink* *Tink* *Sparkle*
And the sound of the frogs.. near the water?
And the bouncing sheeps? 🐑
@@ronaldcheng1857 uhhh of course bro
Memories, playing this game with my family.
For any fellow musicians out there, this sound can be heard in Omnisphere 2 as the "Paradise" preset. I spent all last week playing Spyro 2 and then jumped into Omnisphere and magically came across it. Pretty cool to hear in there!
Of all the music from Spyro 2, this is the one track that has stayed with me the longest. It feels almost dream like, on the brink of sunset.
This reminds me of when I was younger and my dad had a home theater in the basement we used to play all my videogames on. The same day I reached Autumn Plains I beat the final trainer in Pokemon Stadium and kept the trophy screen on untill my older brother got home from school. Memories ❤
It’s that time of year again!
The homeworlds in this game, and especially this one, had a surreal, magical medieval fantasy atmosphere to them that was often present in the first game but severely lacking in this game outside of the home areas. I've always loved this game, but it was a bit jarring to go from a level with goofy cartoon slugs talking in southern accents to this isolated fantasy landscape. I really wish that a game existed with the updated graphics from the Reignited trilogy that took place in a single, unified open world environment that was something like this or Winter Tundra (or both). It'd be like a kid-friendly Witcher 3 or something along those lines. Too bad it'll never happen.
That would be incredible
I wish theses themes would play depending on the seasons in real life
Damn, this brings tears to my eyes. ;( I remember when I first played Spyro 2; it was during entire summer holidays! Best 2 months in my life, mainly because my grandpa was still alive.
Not gonna lie im glad i grew up with this when i was 4 in 2005, and not an xbox or halo. Cause quite frankly i got to witness the masterpiece
I was only born in 2006 but I was lucky to grow up with a PS2 my family already had so I could play Spyro 1
it sounds so heavenly
if this is not what your childhood sounds like then your childhood must have been pretty boring
I usually come to hear this song and I always like to read this comment, it's like a perfect cumpliment for the music. I'm 23 too and your words express exactly how i feel about remembering that days playing Spyro.
So... many... memories... ;_;
Spyro music to think deeply to.
If there is a heaven, I want this playing when I arrive there
Video games.... controllable nostalgic addictive audio-visual art. What's cooler than that? Nothing. Whole worlds created out of nothing. There's nothing cooler than that.
All that is beauty came alive and learned to sing.
one of the best soundtracks i have ever heard. it makes me feel relaxed and calm :)
That's some deep stuff. I'm only 17, and I already know what you mean. This game is counted among my childhood favorites. Life gets so hard when you're always dreaming, reaching but never touching, and struggling for something better. Natural beauty and wonder beyond imagining shall await those who just hold on, after a tough life. I hope we can all unite to make life simpler, easier, more tranquil. Let's set aside our greed, our pride, and our hate. Purge the darkness, and embrace the light.
Wow. Seeing the picture of the game cover and the music really brought me back.
You put into words exactly how it feels or me, too.
It's...wonderful. I'm lost, and I don't want to be "found" ever again.
:')
Anyone else heard this on the New Year’s Eve broadcast from London?
I didn't even play the original spyro games just got the reignited trilogy, yet this music for some reason feels... nostalgic? I have no idea why but i love it?
This gave me chills and tears!
Happy first day of fall everyone!
I always remember Spyro 2 from my childhood days, will never ever ever forget sitting playing it, when life was simpler, the sky was bluer and my family happier. Times were slower then, everything easy, everything magical.
Now I am 23 you realize as you get older that times get tougher and tougher.....and you grow older, forever remembering, forever dreaming of ....Spyro and autumn plains. Forever gliding.
This soudtrack, this game, this level.... I shall never forget.
I love the autumn road image in this video..it makes me feel happy 🥺
Been listening to this OST for so many years and we're gonna get a remaster finally! So happy ;A;
I come to listen this everyday. Peaceful.
Well, hello again…
The home world songs were so magical meeen
I remember playing this game when i was 5 over and over again ...roaming in this map for hours making little stories in my head with spyro and then flying from the top of the castle again and again..wish i could be back there..as pure as i were ..i regret wanting to grow up..those sure were the days..
Spyro reignited Trilogy had Spyro 2
Hello childhood. Wonderful to see you again
This music was used in the BBC 2021 Fireworks display.
I honestly cannot believe that beauty of this song. It is honestly indescribable. How did Insomniac create such a beautiful piece of music? I mean seriously? I want to know!
I can still hear the horrified screams of sheep while I slaughter them followed by a loud and sickly sound of jaws shutting when devouring their souls
maximusdarkultima u wild
Eyeball Ahlie runescape scrub
I still do this. The worlds of Spyros 1, 2 and 3 are too beautiful to forget. Especially Autumn Plains. I fear we may be losing sight of what video games are really about. Getting to walk around and have fun in someone else's imagination!
You looped it? Stop being a genius.
