Hard Times Come Again no More Let us pause in life's pleasures and count its many tears, While we all sup sorrow with the poor; There's a song that will linger forever in our ears; Oh! Hard times come again no more. Chorus: 'Tis the song, the sigh of the weary, Hard Times, hard times, come again no more. Many days you have lingered around my cabin door; Oh! Hard times come again no more. While we seek mirth and beauty and music light and gay, There are frail forms fainting at the door; Though their voices are silent, their pleading looks will say Oh! Hard times come again no more. Chorus There's a pale weeping maiden who toils her life away, With a worn heart whose better days are o'er: Though her voice would be merry, 'tis sighing all the day, Oh! Hard times come again no more. Chorus 'Tis a sigh that is wafted across the troubled wave, 'Tis a wail that is heard upon the shore 'Tis a dirge that is murmured around the lowly grave Oh! Hard times come again no more. Chorus

This soundtrack is a big part of why the game is so enjoyable to play for long stretches. It transports you out of time, and takes you on a journey and you don't care when you come back.
Thanks but I'll stick with Civilization (1991/DOS), you ought to try it! Hey, I've been playing it constantly for 31 years, it must be something special.
I love how each civ doesn't have a complete different track for each era, rather you can always hear that original track from the ancient era and how it evolves through the ages along with your civilization. Well done!
tbf it would've been much, much harder to create an individual track for every civ for every era that didn't have some kind of a motif. The motif helps to tie the civilization's eras together, making it a good thematic choice, while also being much, much easier to make than different tracks for each era.

When i started a game as Indian civ, i immediately noticed the flute, it was very very similar. My mind started racing and then i realized what i was hearing. I grew up listening to that lovely folk song, it teared me up when i got to hear it again. I have so many memories associated with it and of my country. Thank you wonderful people who brought it back to this game and its actually beautiful to hear as well! I just sat around without advancing my turns just to listen to it more, specially in the ancient era.....
For musicians, this soundtrack is a lesson in how to develop a theme! All of them are extraordinary. It makes me want to play all the Civs I neglect just to hear their music in-game.
I've only just heard of this franchise. I like that they go for the cultural feel of each country. This has to be one the most ambitious soundtracks ever.
I feel that in the Civ V soundtrack you were afraid of the music being too intrusive in the gameplay and I feel that made the soundtrack suffer. In this soundtrack you don't seem to be afraid to be bold and it really paid off. Fantastic job on the soundtrack, I love the progression from ancient era to atomic era. Truly your best work so far.
This, by far, is the most amazing soundtrack ever. I haven't heard anything like this in any movie. Covers so many countries ....... and does it soooooooooo well. Bravo!!!! I can see comments from various people for different places..... a testimony to the great work.... and I mean ALL of them!
I like how the music of each country improves over each era, from just simple instruments to literally full house epicness orchestral music. Really gives the vibe of the game.
Wow, this soundtrack is fantastic! So much care and brilliance has been put into this soundtrack, and each tune I've listened to so far perfectly represents the nation it's portraying. The developers have done an amazing job!
Please let me buy the sound track in its entirety on CD or Lossless somewhere! I really like all your hard work. Itunes seems to only be half the music!
So happy Geoff Knorr brought back the ancient Seikilos Epitaph theme for Greece, truly an amazing piece of history and an inspiring arrangement by Geoff!
There are all great music, I usually play this game several hours in a row, but never tired of listening to the soundtrack of one civilization again and again.
That's a song which is known in Turkey as Katibim (My Clerk), and is widely spread across the Balkans under such names as Fair Hair, Look At Me, Anatolian Girl and many others. No one knows who invented it, were it Slavs or Turks. In every country they say that it was them. Anyway, this song was first used in pop music by Eartha Kitt and then it was kinda sampled by the Boney M
Deep deep deep respect for these musical masterpieces. I really fell in love with the developing songs through the ages. Not only the sphere is getting better, it feels so natural.
Got my first ever Science Victory with America today. In the last few turns, the music at 6:06 was playing and it fit so well it made me a little bit emotional, especially at 8:38. Such a beautiful song.
I started playing on Saturday. I have met all the civilizations and now I'm playing my 3rd game with Sumeria. I have to say that it's the best theme with Arabia, England and France. You made a great game It's fantastic 😘😘
In the America Industrial theme, the part where the lyrics would go "'tis the song, the sigh of the weary" (8:14 and 9:04) is so packed with bittersweet emotion, I can feel my heart melting.
I love that other then the main theme of Scarborough fair for England a theme from Lincolnshire posy/Green Bushes was used. My inner band geek is happy.
Japan music is beautiful; to me, each song is set up for Japan’s historical period. Ancient: Heian - Ancient Japan) Classical: Kamakura - Medieval Japan, from a time prior to the Sengoku period) Industrial: Meiji - Japan’s rise to modernization, and the end of the Feudal samurai era) Atomic: Reiwa (Modern, futuristic-style Japan, looking to adapt to a very modernized and rapidly paced world)
Great job on the Chinese theme, took a familiar folk song I listened to growing up and made it into an absolutely beautiful orchestral piece. Civ has never disappointed when it comes to OSTs, and this time not only did they deliver, they took it to a new level. Great work!
Weirdly, I'd only ever heard the song as set by an Italian (Puccini, in "Turandot"). That opera is set in Peking, though, so not surprised that it is in fact a Chinese folk song.
My partner plays this game and I get to hear the music every now and then. I loved the background music so much that I'm here right now listening to all of it. I have zero game play, but a huge fan of the compositions!
I like Civ because I’m really into history and the beginning makes me feel so at peace, like how to world existed before all this commercial stuff and buildings everywhere. I get so invested into the game and it’s amazing the whole way through!😊
My favourite music of the game so far (not counting Sogno di Volare, which is the true winner of course) is easily Japan's Atomic Era. It really stuck out to me with its incredible blend of mystical and sci-fi character. Really had me pumped while blazing towards my science victory.
Many thanks, I've been looking for "classical piano sheets" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you ever come across - Jonwen Doniden Rule - (do a search on google ) ? Ive heard some super things about it and my partner got cool success with it.
Chinese Industrial Era was based on the classic folk song 茉莉花 (Mo Li Hua) ! What a great choice, indeed Mo Li Hua was a most popular song among chinese community during the 50-90s, this bring me to the good old days as i m listening to this song. Great job!
I wish it would give your civ a higher chance at playing it’s own music though. I do have to admit it was great when I entered the industrial era and Germany’s theme started playing
Those "atomic era" themes are SO damn good... Profound and INSPIRING. Really the whole soundtrack! Makes me wanna play this game so badly, but don't have a gaming PC right now. 😢
I could be playing literally a entire day this game, it's a masterpiece, the graphics, all the civ details, all the things you can do and the paths you can take, and a big part of the reasons to love this game is the soundtrack, a game that can teach you a couple of things about history and strategy (applicable to life). This is more than just an ordinary game, this is art.
Easily one of the greatest game soundtracks I've heard, ever, as the music progresses it gets so modern and beautiful sounding, easily moviescore esque.
Guys, I made a mistake... I said to myself: - I'm going to try this civ game.. maybe I like it... - Game is kinda strange, but at least its pretty.. - Oh, the music is nice... - What? 100 turns already? - Ok, just one more turn... - What? 350 turns already? - Ok, just one more turn... - What? 3 days playing already? - Ok, just one more turn......... - What? 7 days playing already? - Oh god please save me.... - God, wait please, just one culture victory with the vikings...
i have over 500 hours with civ 5, i played immortal and deity mostly. However, 20 hours into gathering storm i just cant stick to it or figure out what im supposed to do. Im honestly just playing 6 for the music.
The Spanish theme is based on Recuerdos de la Alhambra by Francisco Tárrega, one of the most beautiful pieces for classical guitar I have ever heard. Thank you so much for this soundtrack and for basing it in famous compositions from each country, it came out beautifuly.
When the music started, it feel like i sit in fornt of my computer and play civilization with my best friend, and i can spend all my time on it. What a wonderful weekend.
I have played hundreds of hours of civ 5. I can't recall any of the themes. I have played about 60 hours of civ 6, and I remember many of the themes. In fact, I've had several of them get stuck in my head and I couldn't place where I had heard them until I decided to listen to this soundtrack while studying (looking at you Kongo). Great work on this soundtrack!
"The spanish theme is very spansh and too spansh. End of quote." (Parody of Mariano Rajoy) Now seriously, the music in this game is amazing, not only the music of Spain. I can't wait to play it. Or at least to play a demo version.
It took me a while to really notice this in game, but when I first realized that each Civ's theme was slowly "evolving" with the eras I was giddy. This is easily one of the best game soundtracks I've heard in years, WELL DONE.
The Brazilian theme is so uplifting! I really like it so much. However, I really like America's ancient era, I've been playing it on loop for awhile now.
My top 5 compilations. It helped me a lot while writing my book. A variety of tunes that are a mix of many styles are great for mental effort. Thank you!
Why is nobody talking about the American theme? it's absolutely beautiful! It's emotive, uplifting and at the same time kinda melancholic. It encapsulates the american spirit so precisely... good hearted pioneering spirit.
This whole soundtrack is a masterpiece, thank you so much for putting that big of an effort into this, because this soundtrack tops all other games. My favorite at the moment is the India at 2:22:24 its soooo good! Thanks for this game and soundtrack!
I love this soundtrack so much, but I really wish you had the full one available for purchase. I would gladly pay twenty dollars to be able to download this and listen anywhere, but currently all that's available is two songs from each civilization.
The brazillian, roman and spanish themes are my absolutely favorites. What an outstanding work was done in the making of these soundtracks. Congratulations.
I really love how it gets more and more built up and sophisticated... and advanced technique with the ancient rhythm driving behind it, like the refresh of civilizations but with the essential kept and evolving, merging together... Great job done!!

Yes, thank you!
Hard Times Come Again no More
Let us pause in life's pleasures and count its many tears,
While we all sup sorrow with the poor;
There's a song that will linger forever in our ears;
Oh! Hard times come again no more.
Chorus:
'Tis the song, the sigh of the weary,
Hard Times, hard times, come again no more.
Many days you have lingered around my cabin door;
Oh! Hard times come again no more.
While we seek mirth and beauty and music light and gay,
There are frail forms fainting at the door;
Though their voices are silent, their pleading looks will say
Oh! Hard times come again no more.
Chorus
There's a pale weeping maiden who toils her life away,
With a worn heart whose better days are o'er:
Though her voice would be merry, 'tis sighing all the day,
Oh! Hard times come again no more.
Chorus
'Tis a sigh that is wafted across the troubled wave,
'Tis a wail that is heard upon the shore
'Tis a dirge that is murmured around the lowly grave
Oh! Hard times come again no more.
Chorus
arabian original is Uskudara Giderken
You have achieved cultural victory.
Credit to our great musicians listed in the description, an honor to work with them all!

This soundtrack is a big part of why the game is so enjoyable to play for long stretches. It transports you out of time, and takes you on a journey and you don't care when you come back.
@fiv3 when you have small number of civs on map then you will obviously get small numer of songs in game
Very true!
I've actually started playing DOTA matches with this in the background.
True
Sometimes I choose a leader just because I want to listen to the music while playing
this is so real omg
This soundtrack has a pretty good game, you should really try it
@Joonas Rautio Make that 260, exactly double what you said
Thanks but I'll stick with Civilization (1991/DOS), you ought to try it! Hey, I've been playing it constantly for 31 years, it must be something special.
@@MXB2001CivNet back in the day was my gateway drug LMAO
I love how each civ doesn't have a complete different track for each era, rather you can always hear that original track from the ancient era and how it evolves through the ages along with your civilization. Well done!
One of the small details that was just absolutely incredibly well done. Incredible polish.
agreed noticed that on my 2nd playthrough was very surprised usually game developers cut corners wherever they can
tbf it would've been much, much harder to create an individual track for every civ for every era that didn't have some kind of a motif. The motif helps to tie the civilization's eras together, making it a good thematic choice, while also being much, much easier to make than different tracks for each era.
and when you realise each single civ main theme is completely related to its culture and traditions its just a masterpiece

Thanks!
Thank youuu
When i started a game as Indian civ, i immediately noticed the flute, it was very very similar. My mind started racing and then i realized what i was hearing. I grew up listening to that lovely folk song, it teared me up when i got to hear it again. I have so many memories associated with it and of my country. Thank you wonderful people who brought it back to this game and its actually beautiful to hear as well!
I just sat around without advancing my turns just to listen to it more, specially in the ancient era.....

Tino Mori - MACEDINIAN SONG
Really good music to study too. Most importantly, 4 hours with no ads. You guys are true heroes
like you really feel like you're in the game to win against the exam, hahahahah truly going for science victory
For musicians, this soundtrack is a lesson in how to develop a theme! All of them are extraordinary. It makes me want to play all the Civs I neglect just to hear their music in-game.
I've only just heard of this franchise. I like that they go for the cultural feel of each country. This has to be one the most ambitious soundtracks ever.
Civilization games have a history of great soundtracks!
This is one of the best soundtracks I have ever heard. Well done.
Thank you! That means a lot to us and the great team of composers we had contribute to the game :)
Far far (far) better than Civilization V soundtracks (in my opinion).
Wow this comment got a reply from the devs
This music is amazing btw
credits to geoff knorr@@civilization
23:10 HOLY JESUS LORDY IT'S BEAUTIFUL.
27:05 OH JEEZIS IT GETS BETTER.
ottoman empire
It is a Turkish song not Arabic. (Uskudara Gideriken)
@@letomurdoch1102 It sounds pretty cool, like it has been arranged by Two Steps from Hell!
@@siniorgolazo reminds me of the avengers theme
2:27:16 His words are now backed with nuclear weapons.
No one gets this joke. But it is Amazing.
1:00:55 The buildup is great, and the execution is perfect
You guys really know how to make exceptional renditions of the Epitaph of Seikilos. Greece and Rome's themes are truly amazing in this game.
I feel that in the Civ V soundtrack you were afraid of the music being too intrusive in the gameplay and I feel that made the soundtrack suffer. In this soundtrack you don't seem to be afraid to be bold and it really paid off. Fantastic job on the soundtrack, I love the progression from ancient era to atomic era. Truly your best work so far.
This, by far, is the most amazing soundtrack ever. I haven't heard anything like this in any movie. Covers so many countries ....... and does it soooooooooo well. Bravo!!!!
I can see comments from various people for different places..... a testimony to the great work.... and I mean ALL of them!
I like how the music of each country improves over each era, from just simple instruments to literally full house epicness orchestral music. Really gives the vibe of the game.
There we go, this is better!
And this is what I'll study to from now on.
Thijs Blom is not going to work for me, since i'll recognise them and hymn to them, itll distract me
It's always better than a song with lyrics, because I can't sing along to this. :p
Hope it makes you as productive as possible :)
So far its working great :)
Yeah,it's working for me too. This soudtrack increase my production so that I can build every wonder in one turn :)
Wow, this soundtrack is fantastic! So much care and brilliance has been put into this soundtrack, and each tune I've listened to so far perfectly represents the nation it's portraying. The developers have done an amazing job!
Thank you! The credit goes to our amazing musicians who all worked together to put together 4+ hours of amazing music.
indeed, they got the right inspirations.
Please let me buy the sound track in its entirety on CD or Lossless somewhere! I really like all your hard work. Itunes seems to only be half the music!
Gmeister I agree
Indeed, I have to say that the game is a musical masterpiece. It's clear that they put a lot of thought into it.
1:33:33 The atomic Scarborough Fair is amazing, the way it builds up from light and a bit macabre into an epic and optimistic chorus.
Oh so they're back to the Civ 4 era themed soundtrack. Loved the hell of it.
Glad you like it!
The people are the heroes
So happy Geoff Knorr brought back the ancient Seikilos Epitaph theme for Greece, truly an amazing piece of history and an inspiring arrangement by Geoff!
There are all great music, I usually play this game several hours in a row, but never tired of listening to the soundtrack of one civilization again and again.
16:30 I'm getting a Rasputin song vibe here
It's pretty much a rip off of "Ruse kose curo imaš," or other regional variant of the song.
That's a song which is known in Turkey as Katibim (My Clerk), and is widely spread across the Balkans under such names as Fair Hair, Look At Me, Anatolian Girl and many others. No one knows who invented it, were it Slavs or Turks. In every country they say that it was them.
Anyway, this song was first used in pop music by Eartha Kitt and then it was kinda sampled by the Boney M
Even Boney M. stole songs ;)
Tholoma ashkun gharami - that's the original song.
same
Deep deep deep respect for these musical masterpieces. I really fell in love with the developing songs through the ages. Not only the sphere is getting better, it feels so natural.
This is AMAZING! I hope you release it in iTunes. I'd love to buy a copy. My favorite so far is Egypt - Atomic Era, that rising build up is just EPIC.
String Player Gamer Why don't you become some song to your version?
Yes, my first playthrough i got Egypt, this music makes everything so epic!
Darn it! My favorites are not even included in the iTunes version.
I guess you could guerrilla an album from the files in your game folder. Tag data is all here anyway.
now 130
Got my first ever Science Victory with America today. In the last few turns, the music at 6:06 was playing and it fit so well it made me a little bit emotional, especially at 8:38. Such a beautiful song.
I started playing on Saturday. I have met all the civilizations and now I'm playing my 3rd game with Sumeria. I have to say that it's the best theme with Arabia, England and France. You made a great game It's fantastic 😘😘
In the America Industrial theme, the part where the lyrics would go "'tis the song, the sigh of the weary" (8:14 and 9:04) is so packed with bittersweet emotion, I can feel my heart melting.
I love that other then the main theme of Scarborough fair for England a theme from Lincolnshire posy/Green Bushes was used.
My inner band geek is happy.
Japan music is beautiful; to me, each song is set up for Japan’s historical period.
Ancient: Heian - Ancient Japan)
Classical: Kamakura - Medieval Japan, from a time prior to the Sengoku period)
Industrial: Meiji - Japan’s rise to modernization, and the end of the Feudal samurai era)
Atomic: Reiwa (Modern, futuristic-style Japan, looking to adapt to a very modernized and rapidly paced world)
This soundtrack is so peaceful for me to listen in the library, focus on my study, but it also pulls me back to the ancient of Europe...
Great job on the Chinese theme, took a familiar folk song I listened to growing up and made it into an absolutely beautiful orchestral piece.
Civ has never disappointed when it comes to OSTs, and this time not only did they deliver, they took it to a new level. Great work!
As a Chinese, I can't think of a more suitable song
Weirdly, I'd only ever heard the song as set by an Italian (Puccini, in "Turandot"). That opera is set in Peking, though, so not surprised that it is in fact a Chinese folk song.
@@Utred2012Thanks for that info!!!
🕊️❤
My partner plays this game and I get to hear the music every now and then. I loved the background music so much that I'm here right now listening to all of it. I have zero game play, but a huge fan of the compositions!
Arabia Industrial is my favorite. Damn, that's beautiful.
agreed. That's why I always play arabia
Is It Just me or It sounds a Lot like Rasputin?
In fact, this is a turkish music. song name "üsküdara gider iken".
this version of the song has been great
it sounds literally JUST like rasputin
boney m definitely sampled the original lol
Fun Fact: It is a Turkish song not Arabic. (Uskudara Gideriken)
Brejeiro is an awesome theme for Brazil. I've been playing them simply so I could hear the theme while I play
wow, I just noticed the image isn't actually a static image :)
Good catch! Anyone else notice it too?
Nope :D
Try to find out what isn't so static in nature and look for it in the 'image'
Expletive you for that last one, Arthur.
I see it now I've turned my quality up
I have to give it to the English medieval theme. The way they merged Scarborough Fair and The Bold Grenadier is truly top tier.
I like Civ because I’m really into history and the beginning makes me feel so at peace, like how to world existed before all this commercial stuff and buildings everywhere. I get so invested into the game and it’s amazing the whole way through!😊
Some parts of it almost made me cry. This music is powerful!
honestly I'm in love with every single song in civ 6, but for me, Russia wins best soundtrack based on one of the best red army choir songs ever
gtpower3 Exactly. Russia's theme is always breathtaking in all Civ games.
k a l i n k a
My favourite music of the game so far (not counting Sogno di Volare, which is the true winner of course) is easily Japan's Atomic Era. It really stuck out to me with its incredible blend of mystical and sci-fi character. Really had me pumped while blazing towards my science victory.
Gesh86 There is a joke in there which I won't mention...
3:04:25 GLORY TO ARSTOTZKA!
YOGSCAST 😂
@@JoreaperGam All rise for DATLOF!
I cannot describe how much I adore this soundtrack and the way the civ's themes change with time. Simply breathtaking!
Welp, gotta say you guys nailed Brazil's soundtrack this time around. Amazing work
Last time too. Pedro's war theme in Civ V was one of the bests.
Gabriel Campanini Realmente, chega de saudade já é apelação
I prefer the one in Civ V actually. Goosebump inducing, that one.
Que trilha sonora foda pqp
Agreed. Civ V Pedro's war theme was one of the bests for sure.
That is awesome . The Egyptian theme is based heavily on the famous song (( Al helwa deyya )) a classic Arabic song .
Many thanks, I've been looking for "classical piano sheets" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you ever come across - Jonwen Doniden Rule - (do a search on google ) ? Ive heard some super things about it and my partner got cool success with it.
they are almost all based on popular traditional songs from each civilization
@@matthewstanfield7519 yes, true... Indian one was based on old religious song "Vaishnav Jan to"
@@matthewstanfield7519 yes, like Russia is based on kalinka
I think the American song is based on 'The rising of the Moon'
How is it possible for music to be THIS GOOD? I'm blown away every time I listen to this sound track. Beautiful work!
Chinese Industrial Era was based on the classic folk song 茉莉花 (Mo Li Hua) ! What a great choice, indeed Mo Li Hua was a most popular song among chinese community during the 50-90s, this bring me to the good old days as i m listening to this song. Great job!
1:38:38 one of my favorite moments
I think, this one is from Knights of Honor
the French theme one of the best
I noticed when playing the game that only the civilization's soundtracks of those you've met are played. Such a neat idea!
I wish it would give your civ a higher chance at playing it’s own music though. I do have to admit it was great when I entered the industrial era and Germany’s theme started playing
I really appreciate that you synthesized the best from the historical progression of my country through music. A big congratulations from China!
Those "atomic era" themes are SO damn good... Profound and INSPIRING. Really the whole soundtrack! Makes me wanna play this game so badly, but don't have a gaming PC right now. 😢
You don't entirely need a gaming PC to play civ 6. If you want better quality gameplay than yes, a gaming PC would be recommended.
Whatever your budget for music was on this game
Money well spent
Easily one of the best game soundtracks I've ever heard. Civ 6 definitely has some of the best audio in recent years. Well done!
I love the demented reaction of Spain’s king Philip II when he denounces you. It scares me everytime.
I could be playing literally a entire day this game, it's a masterpiece, the graphics, all the civ details, all the things you can do and the paths you can take, and a big part of the reasons to love this game is the soundtrack, a game that can teach you a couple of things about history and strategy (applicable to life).
This is more than just an ordinary game, this is art.
I played my first gameplay of civilization vi
I swear that first civilization I ever met was gandhi.. oh no
Have fun in your fallout world
Same here, turns out he had the Nuke Happy hidden agenda... Good thing I won before he got nukes
Kill him before he can get nukes ^^
so in civ6 he is nuke dropping maniac too? damn i loves this game.
He has been since civ 2
Easily one of the greatest game soundtracks I've heard, ever, as the music progresses it gets so modern and beautiful sounding, easily moviescore esque.
Percentage wise, I think I like Atomic Age most as a group.
🕊️❤
Guys, I made a mistake... I said to myself:
- I'm going to try this civ game.. maybe I like it...
- Game is kinda strange, but at least its pretty..
- Oh, the music is nice...
- What? 100 turns already?
- Ok, just one more turn...
- What? 350 turns already?
- Ok, just one more turn...
- What? 3 days playing already?
- Ok, just one more turn.........
- What? 7 days playing already?
- Oh god please save me....
- God, wait please, just one culture victory with the vikings...
i have over 500 hours with civ 5, i played immortal and deity mostly. However, 20 hours into gathering storm i just cant stick to it or figure out what im supposed to do. Im honestly just playing 6 for the music.
My ears melted when I heard Greece's Atomic era theme! It's so good!

The Spanish theme is based on Recuerdos de la Alhambra by Francisco Tárrega, one of the most beautiful pieces for classical guitar I have ever heard. Thank you so much for this soundtrack and for basing it in famous compositions from each country, it came out beautifuly.
Brazil is fabulous in this game, great civilization, good choice!!!
When the music started, it feel like i sit in fornt of my computer and play civilization with my best friend, and i can spend all my time on it. What a wonderful weekend.
Spain's music for each era is "Recuerdos de la Alhambra" by Franciso Tarrega, traditionally a classical guitar piece.
brazil's atomic era is the sims
I lol'ed at this :D
Is the English theme Scarborough Fair?
Vanilla Ice Cream Sammiches oh my gosh that's what it is
It is indeed! Good ear
Yep, really good reworking of it by the team
Paul Varjak Agreed c:
Yes it is, I was... I know this song... I know this song!!!
I have played hundreds of hours of civ 5. I can't recall any of the themes. I have played about 60 hours of civ 6, and I remember many of the themes. In fact, I've had several of them get stuck in my head and I couldn't place where I had heard them until I decided to listen to this soundtrack while studying (looking at you Kongo). Great work on this soundtrack!
I love Arabia’s themes (particularly Industrial and Modern’s themes ^^)
I regret so much not getting the digital deluxe. This soundtrack is the best one I've heard in some time. Firaxis you guys need to make it a DLC.
Greece is my fave so far. Love that the theme changes every era. It was very Epic when I noticed in game after reaching the industrial era. So cool!
I would appreciate so much to see this score on Spotify !
here here
Oh Yes, that would make my day
"The spanish theme is very spansh and too spansh. End of quote." (Parody of Mariano Rajoy)
Now seriously, the music in this game is amazing, not only the music of Spain. I can't wait to play it. Or at least to play a demo version.
oleee
They are all based off of songs from the respective cultures (aside from maybe rome, Sumeria, the Aztecs and other dead nations)
It took me a while to really notice this in game, but when I first realized that each Civ's theme was slowly "evolving" with the eras I was giddy. This is easily one of the best game soundtracks I've heard in years, WELL DONE.
The Brazilian theme is so uplifting! I really like it so much. However, I really like America's ancient era, I've been playing it on loop for awhile now.
Medieval era is better than ancient era but both are really good
Brazil Industrial might be my favorite, behind it American Industrial/Atomic, Norwegian Atomic, and Industrial England.
The Kongo themes are so good
Agreed!
@theluigiguy Absolutely agreed.
Kongo's music is absolutely amazing.
It's great, although it sounds so peacefully, that i think I won't be able to nuke anyone playing as Kongo.
I love the kongo theme. Makes me look forward to being denounced by him every 20 turns
Ironically, this particular upload of the soundtrack is the only one I could find without any ads whatsoever.
3:28:11 - 3:28:14 = memories of Silent hill.
HEeeee
I never thought Civ VI looked like it'd live up to Civ V so I didn't play it, but I tell you the music is absolutely perfect.
Tell Geoff Knorr that he really outdid himself with Kongo's theme. Shit's fire.
My top 5 compilations. It helped me a lot while writing my book. A variety of tunes that are a mix of many styles are great for mental effort. Thank you!
The Arabic music is the best!
Same
Same, but it's ottoman music (turkish music) not arabic
It's actually Ottoman music. It's called "Üsküdar'a Gider İken" wich means "While On The Way To Uskudar"
@Abdul Rahman Mohammed like you have lived through the golden age
Try it at x2 speed, so intimidating
Thanks for uploading with the start times guys. Loving the game so far!
Why is nobody talking about the American theme? it's absolutely beautiful! It's emotive, uplifting and at the same time kinda melancholic. It encapsulates the american spirit so precisely... good hearted pioneering spirit.
Yeah, I’ve been whistling it all day.
When playing the game the American theme is one of the most iconic in my opinion.
My favorite is the American, Egyptain, and Indian. If I had to pick a favorite in that, probably Indian.
This whole soundtrack is a masterpiece, thank you so much for putting that big of an effort into this, because this soundtrack tops all other games. My favorite at the moment is the India at 2:22:24 its soooo good! Thanks for this game and soundtrack!
6:31 sounds like the opening of some cheesy american sports movie lol
The opening is based on Aaron Copland's Fanfare For The Common Man
Norway's is really good especially their industrial era music.
I love this soundtrack so much, but I really wish you had the full one available for purchase. I would gladly pay twenty dollars to be able to download this and listen anywhere, but currently all that's available is two songs from each civilization.
The brazillian, roman and spanish themes are my absolutely favorites. What an outstanding work was done in the making of these soundtracks. Congratulations.
I find this soundtrack to be the best of all times in videogame history
I really love how it gets more and more built up and sophisticated... and advanced technique with the ancient rhythm driving behind it, like the refresh of civilizations but with the essential kept and evolving, merging together... Great job done!!
I love the Norwegian songs. Reminds me of old songs i listen to when i was young. I also love the russian song at 3:28:12
That’s kalinka!
@@abm8017 Верно!
Sounds like a Spanish song a bit in the binglibg of the song
Sumerian theme song is so awesome, it's got to be my favorite!
