Peak OST, this is not meant to only pump you up, this music IS Seymour. It's intense, there's a touch of madness, and above all there's a sad tune behind the melody.
Your description is perfect. I played it first back in 2006 and this song has never left my head. I'm a guitarist and the chord changes are complete madness but an absolute joy to learn!
"Good evening, Spira.. this is your host DJ Mour with the hits. Coming to you live from Guadosalam with another oldie and a favorite mine. Stay tuned if you wanna See Mour.."
To be honest I feel like Seymour should have been the Final Boss of this game. He certainly was the main “villain” of the game. People always talk about Jecht but… he’s not really a villain. They just had to defeat his Aeon which was keeping Sin alive. People could say Sin, but Sin isn’t evil. It’s just a machine that follows it’s programming. Or Yu Yevon? But Yu Yevon was only protecting his summoned city, and eventually lost his mind and became a shell of his former self, barely sentient. But Seymour… he was evil. He had a clear objective, he wanted to become sin and destroy the world.
I personally think his role is fine, my reasoning mostly because of the theming. Seymour was more so a representation of everything wrong with the world, something the olot revolves around using Tidus as a spearhead to punch a hole in everyone else's beliefs. Seymour was the embodiment of a small boy who was denied any sense of a normal childhood because of the customs of his people, the religion of Yevon, and everything in between. Lost his mother to their religion and witnessed her transformation into the game's most grotesque Aeon, was raised as a sacrificial lamb to kill Sin, and came to believe human life was worthless because that had been his lived experience. But he wasn't the mastermind. Neither was Jecht, Jecht was just the catalyst to get the plot moving. Yu Yevon, however, was a parasite pushing all of this forward and keeping the cycle going. I think it works well as the final boss thematically. Is it a pathetic tick that you can't even lose to? Sure, but that is also kinda the point; wears your Aeons like armor and once you've plowed through them all, the only thing he can do is heal himself in a vein attempt to live. Thematically speaking, it fits with the whole idea that Yevon l, as a religion, was only as strong as the faith people put in it; take that away and it's just a leech sucking the life out of the world at large with people worshipping it none the wiser of the fact that they were worshipping Sin. Just my take on it. Doesn't have to be right; one of the reasons I love this game so much is because of the open ended assertions made and how they can be interpreted.
Even then tho. Seymour wanted to destroy the world to end the spiral of death Spira was trapped in. Instead of Sin being the instrument and symbol of death, it would become Spira's salvation FFX was truly an amazing game
@@Impalingthornyou have excellent writing and comprehension skills. Even though i know the story well, i still thoroughly enjoyed reading your comment.
Its the rythm section that makes this shit amazing- that bass pounds and drives, and the drums lock it all in, both allowing Nobu to show off how hard he's laying in those keyboard parts. Good song is good.
God they butchered this in the Remaster. I mean most of the songs got butchered, but it is MUCH harder to find the original tracks now because they keep posting the damn remaster as if people want to listen to that version. It has no punch, no beat. Dry as hell.
Didn't play the remaster. Didn't even know they rearanged the songs until a few days ago. A friend of mine posted the Fleeting Dream song/Someday the Dream will end song. Was good imo.
Crucillus Thorn There's a NES version because Japanese gamers were trying to make a Final Fantasy 10 game for the NES and its hard to find the game but I managed to get the NES version of Final Fantasy 10 music
Yeah I mean it’s like the remaster uses synth sound beats They cut out the hard hitting drums from this song Always go into this fight with the OG soundtrack
There’s a lot of good songs in the remaster but this one is REALLY BAD. They took out the amazing drums. I’m always back for this one. Sounds like a dream theater song
The beginning of the song sounds like we’re all meeting God on judgment day. And the ones that have to descend to hail, this is the part of the song you hear when you enter hell. And you realize, that you’re gonna have one hell of a party lol 2:23
Hmm- Gospel means good news! The bad news is we have all sinned and deserve the wrath to come. But Jesus the Messiah died for our sins, was buried, and then raised on the third day, according to the scriptures. He ascended into heaven and right now is seated at the Father's right hand. Jesus said, "I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand; repent and believe in the gospel."
This is the song that plays when the character experiences a second wind. The enemy thought they won, the hero was beaten down and there was nothing left. But inside, something stirs, and a transformation takes them from 0 to 100. They are ready to fight some more, and the enemy WILL fall.
I like to imagine that when this song was being recorded, Uematsu was dissatisfied with the intensity (or rather, lack thereof) on the drums and told the drummer to really hammer those cymbals... Fed up, the drummer goes and picks up actual hammers with which to hit them :P
I love this boss fight's music, I died so many times during this boss battle although I enjoyed the music while fighting Seymour I started screaming when I beat him
Even when/if I get around to playing this game, I will never be able to separate my association of this song with Super Pokémon Eevee Edition since that's where I first heard it. I finished that game recently and just really wanted to know where it came from (It was obviously a FF song, like most songs in that game, but I wasn't at all sure which). This song is so damn good. Lol.
@@Jeremy_Watson Ye, I hear a lot of good things about it. Honestly, the only "bad" thing I've heard about it is the cherrypicked laugh scene, but I'm also aware that the people who criticized that completely missed the point (This is pretty much the only thing about this game I really know about, and even then, I'm not certain about the actual context). Lol. I'm definitely interested in this one, and I'll probably get it eventually. I'm not necessarily in a rush to buy any more games atm, but this is one I want to get around to eventually.
@@Cuprite1024 yea I never understood why some people were so weird about that? Not even anything to hang up on. This is the first final fantasy that I 100% completed. I hear you on the games, I have a few hundred, most of which I've never even played yet.. Some I haven't even opened yet.
Truth to be told: I don't even like the song that much. ^.^ I mean: It's alright. And memorable. But I prefer Birth of a God (FF7) when it comes to a kick-ass boss song.
@@ardraagatama2858 oh, I thought this was a video of the original soundtrack and guess I didn't even think about the remaster as I had forgotten all about a remaster.
recently beat this game for the first time, i lost the first attempt because i was overwhelmed by what i was seeing and hearing lmao even so the game doesn’t explain how you’re supposed to stop him from using 4 spells in 1 turn so i wouldn’t put it past “unprepared” players

SEYMOUR THE HOUSE IS ON FIRE
@@DerangedHermit "no mother thats just my theme song" 🔥🔥
Well, you are an odd fellow, but I must say, you make a good comment
Seymour!!!!! the ost is on fire!!!
No mother, that's just the firaga spam
I literally just pictured Principal Seymour's mother as Anima and Principal Seymour as Maester Seymour. Bizarre and funny.
HEELLP!! HHEEEEEEELLPP!!!
@Dr_Trumpet I genuinely thought he would turn the wheels for other elements but I guess not, anyways:

Peak OST, this is not meant to only pump you up, this music IS Seymour. It's intense, there's a touch of madness, and above all there's a sad tune behind the melody.
Nice description. Fully agreed
I forgot what playthrough I saw but once the sad music kicked in, the player was summoning Anima. That was peak timing. It was a blind playthrough too
Your description is perfect. I played it first back in 2006 and this song has never left my head.
I'm a guitarist and the chord changes are complete madness but an absolute joy to learn!
Well Seymour, I made it, despite your directions !
😂 seeeeyymmoooourr!!
It's an Albany expression.
Yes and you call them steamed hams despite the fact they're obviously grilled
the fact that when I read this, I heard it exactly in Principal Skinner's voice is a testament to how culturally significant this meme has become.
@BrickleYourFrickle But it’s chalmers who says it
"Good evening, Spira.. this is your host DJ Mour with the hits. Coming to you live from Guadosalam with another oldie and a favorite mine. Stay tuned if you wanna See Mour.."
In an alternate universe, everyone just stops fighting and hits the dancefloor. Especially Seymour, considering this is his mixtape after all.
"With Yunelesca gone, the only means of defeating Sin is gone! Now, nothing will stop us! But first, can you survive my sick beats?! Have at you!"
@@Chibisporedude I lost it at this comment lmfao
@@Chibispore well, we will!
By all means, try!!!
BY ALL MEANS TRY!
One of the catchiest, most badass boss themes in a video game. The HD version of this is pretty good as well, but I still prefer the original.
Same here I like the original
@@BaldingSasquatch I can agree with that real talk
Original is the real deal 😎
@@adriantovias8681 I can totally agree!

Biggest villain was tromell. That guy was cleaning up Seymors dirty work 247
that china cymbal is fucking NASTY
Anima: Seymour Spira is on fire.
Seymour: No mother thats just the northern Sin.
“You are an odd fellow but i must say, you steam a good sphere”
That moment where you don't kill him just to listen to this music
Did that!
Such an amazing song, from a classic game and ost
2:54 Those fuckin’ drums
“YOU would Oppose Me as well?! So Be It.”
Its the rythm section that makes this shit amazing- that bass pounds and drives, and the drums lock it all in, both allowing Nobu to show off how hard he's laying in those keyboard parts.

Isn't there an original soundtrack option?
The house was on fire for a reason, the steamed hams were innocent
Sound like Man with a Machine gun from ff8 kind of
Sometime Nobuo's music rhymes with itself.
"But there is no salvation for the damned!"
"Rest in peace in eternal darkness!"
The beginning of the song sounds like we’re all meeting God on judgment day. And the ones that have to descend to hail, this is the part of the song you hear when you enter hell. And you realize, that you’re gonna have one hell of a party lol 2:23
Hate to be that guy but the only one having a party will be satan, everyone else will be screaming ☝️🤓

F*ck tge remaster the original soundtrack is epic
Amazing 80s vibe
0:43 Heh heh heh, How easily you forget... I had the pepperoni pizza all along. for your grievous error you will perish.
You … you monster!
How can this be?! the Spaghetti Star allowed me to cheat Ravioli!
1:15 the best part of the song yeeeeeeiii!!!!!
Sounds like Reshiram's/Zekrom's Theme from Pokemon Black and White
Stop we must dance to decide our fate!
I hoped that this fight was longer just to ear more of his theme

Feels like a nostalgia piece. Recalls earlier Nobu works.
I actually prefer this to the remastered ost
You can’t but move your head when the first beat kicks in.
Suddenly Seymour!!!
Was it supposed to be the final boss of final fantasy X?
no. final boss is different
Sub Boss, I suppose

C More see more. FFX always haved so much to do...
Better than the remastered version
BY ALL MEANS...TRY!!!!!
PS2版が一番良いですな
Many people say so. I also prefer the original.
Jupiter water.
See i thought i didnt remember this song until that beat came in lmaoo this game gotta be like top 3 for FF games
Seymour? More like MC-Mour
1:00 that symbol is NASTY
I love this boss fight's music, I died so many times during this boss battle although I enjoyed the music while fighting Seymour I started screaming when I beat him

The best fight music in the game besides Yu Yevon, and both bosses die in 2 hits before you can hear them
Well Seymour, I made it, despite your directions.
アニマでトドメ刺すかキマリでトドメ刺すかでRPが分かれそう
圧倒的キマリ派
Still always a shame this theme was wasted on such a baby fight even unprepared you could still kick his ass 😂😂
My brother actually got stuck on this boss. He couldn't even go back to level up because the game wouldn't let him
recently beat this game for the first time, i lost the first attempt because i was overwhelmed by what i was seeing and hearing lmao
even so the game doesn’t explain how you’re supposed to stop him from using 4 spells in 1 turn so i wouldn’t put it past “unprepared” players

Wait a minute...
Is that?
Man with a machine gun?
So I am not the only one that noticed.
schizo music
🔥
What if Seymour met Kefka?
He would get to see what peak madness truly is
He does meet him in Dissidia Opera Omnia I believe. I forget what it was like.
Beat Hades Extreme Measures at 32 heat while listening to this thank you based FFX
So basic, it seems like Uematsu ran out of ideas. I mean, it sounds great, but not one of his finer productions.
I must say, this is the first time i have ever heard that, but to each their own of course. Different opinions give value to the world.
Overrated.
At least it's better than megalovania right
This is THE FFX song for me. Most memorable fight I think of when I think back in that game.
