The FF7 World Map theme might be my favourite overworld track in the entire Final Fantasy series. It's a tough call, as for each instalment, the respective overworld track is god tier. This is definitely my favourite song in FF7, at any rate. ^_^ I hope you enjoy this Christmas surprise! I made it for someone special in my life as they told me it was one of their favourite video game tracks of all time!

Who can still remember, over two decades ago, stepping into the world map then hearing this melody for the first, feeling there are so many places to go, so much adventure waiting.
God, I miss games from the old time, along with their characteristic camera angles, and therefore, maps.
My thought exactly, this theme came with this notion "this is just the beginning, where do we go from here...?" Epic.
I actually found it bittersweet because I wondered if I had left anything behind in the city. It was an end and a much bigger beginning - a definive point in the story, exactly how I feel now, my first full day hours away from my home in the beginning of my over the road trucking adventure. I hope I make lots of loot and find lots of treasures, sure there will be a few battles but I'm looking forward to seeing all 50 USA states (seen about 24-26 of them as a kid but can't remember)
Going to definitely eat pizza in all 50 states so far in Tennessee "Mr. T's Pizza" is recommended, very dielucious horse duecedees.
Word. This overworld music will always be the most dear to me.
@@nateblack8669 if you get Steam you can buy FF7 on it :) I still play FF7 to this day on PC
@@felixhogsander2533 I've been playing it with a wireless controller on my phone using a ps1 emulator! I've pretty much turned my phone into a retro gaming hand held so I can experience all the classics. Also currently playing Chrono Trigger 😊
I swear at least 200 of the views are from me replaying it over and over...great job!
Thank you!
That's what I do when I work on paperwork. I find one I like and put it on loop and minimize the browser lol.
WHAT ARE U DOING HERE MONOTONE GUY
Same here, best way to start the day
😆
This is my favorite song Nobuo Uematsu ever composed. Such epic heights, depth, beauty, somber moments and magnificence. It makes me cry every time.
I'm listening to this track almost every week for about 15 years as it never fails to heal my soul. This is the best version I've ever heard. Congratulation.
I'm honoured!

Rock on FF7!
I'm playing FFVII for the first time in my Life, it's such a glorious adventure, the world is rich, the story is awesome so far and the character are just splendid. This arrangement made me cry when all orchestra played the main melody... So magical. Thank you
Thank you, too. I'm really glad you're enjoying the game!
3:20 the goosebumps!
^_^ Thanks. I wanted that spot to be the main goosebumps spot.
2022. man this one will never abandon my heart
This sounds so good. I keep expecting to get interrupted by the decisive battle theme ^^
Why?
Decisive battle theme is from FF6
mods.
There’s just so much emotion in this track. I love it and this arrangement 👌
Thanks! ^_^v
Cette musique est vraiment celle qui accompagne au mieux les émotions du joueur quand il découvre pour la première fois la worldmap du jeu: au début, la crainte d'explorer ce vaste environnement mystérieux, vite effacé par la joie d'explorer et de découvrir de nouvelles zones. Et cet arrangement lui rend vraiment bien hommage, bravo !
Vous avez dit cela avec tant d'éloquence. ^_^

gabe 234 most wholesome drunk yt comment ever LOL
That was so sweet! ^_^ Thank you.
Happy new year Gabe!
Happy new year Gabe!
It's funny - it's October when I write this, but I was just thinking how much of it almost sounds like a Christmas version of the theme (or at least a winter wonderland version), and then I came across your comment. Seemed to match well.
this heals my soul.
Excellent. ^_^
god, i decided to buy ff7 when it was on sale for the switch, got it for 8 australian dollars, and the feeling of coming out of midgar and hearing this song, and spevifically that crescendo for the first time is absolutely magical and worth so much more then those 8 dollars.... im about to reach the temple of the ancients, and i dont know how im going to deal with what will happen... the yuffie quests in wutai were pretty damn fun though, im falling head over heels with this game!! thank you for contributing your own piece to this game's magic :)
Thank you, too!
I still remember getting to this part of the game and putting the controller down on multiple occasions while playing this game in my youth just to hear this song play in its totality cause I liked it so much and I know I am not alone in that and this remix is just the perfect homage to this theme, every time I listen to this I get that same feeling but better somehow which I greatly appreciate, this might have started out as a present to just one person but it has now become a present for all who listen to it so thanks for such a great gift
Thanks! That means a lot! Yeah, I think I did that as well (putting down the controller to listen). It is an enchanting overworld track!
@@RebeccaETripp it truly is this is probably the track that made me realize game music was just as viable as any other form of music
@@TheCreepypro For me, that was the Triforce Chamber song in Link to the Past!
@@RebeccaETripp that is a really good one too!
This captures the grandeur of FF7 nicely. Well done.
Very nice arrangement Rebecca 😌👌
Thanks for listening! ☕
remake will never come close to the wonder we felt then. back then, the world was small. delineated. limited. what else lies beyond? you heard this and suddenly it was all possible. hearing this during his bit in the lifestream with tifa... when he bested his opponent... ugh. then finding the notes they scratched to each other in shinra's basement after. the world is filled with beauty, disgust, possibility and loss. this ost captured that better than any other imo.
Rebecca i love all your arrangements of FF
You're welcome. ^_^
Beautiful theme. It kind of carry a subtle melancholy imo. Great arrangement and mix made by you.
I'm speechless. This is your best work so far. Damn! The feelings I had through this were intense.
Thanks so much! :'O
I have yet to listen to one of your Final Fantasy pieces that has failed to bring a nostalgic tear to my eye. Thank you for making these.
Thanks for listening.
The Queen hath done it once more. thank you, M'lady.
^_^ Glad you enjoyed it.
so sad
so gloom
yet
so nostalgic
Merry christmas rebecca wonderful work with the FF7..and to all subscriber ..Cheers to all 🍸🍹☕
Thank you! ^_^
That was fantastic! Brought me right back to 1997!
Three years late but I needed this tune, job's about to go in lockdown a second time, bills to pay etc. This remake made me reminisce of me trying to save up cash to
buy a s1 when I was young to buy this game. Thank you for this Remke on the song, put a smile on my face when things are down.
I'm glad it helped! This will pass.
Childhood and tears. Thank you for this pearl. Nobuo Uematsu is a Maestro. 🖤
Great composition/arrangement!
So soothing. One of my favourite themes, awesome :)
Real time! Thanks, Can!
This is just magical. I can’t wait for the port to release in switch. I’ll probably just sit in the overworld and listen to the theme a lot hehe.
I remember the first time I heard this just when I got out of Midgar, it's sad but gives you the impression that you have to move on and continue the journey to the unknown. Definitely like life. Sometimes it's sad that we have to let go of things and to move on without them, but we have to.
Such a lovely arrangement. Thank you for sharing : )
You're welcome. ^_^ Thanks.
Beautiful as always
Very good job, Becky!! Can't wait for FF7R!! :)
This song is excellent. I instinctively thought it would cut to battle music every 5 seconds or so, only to be pleasantly reminded that there is a full track here.
Nice christmas give, three videos in a row. I will comment more elaborated when im fully wake up.
Thanks for sharing
Very good! Refreshing! I've listened to the mainstay arrangements so many times, it's great to hear a fresh interpretation that's original, but doesn't deviate too far from the source.
Easy subscription for me!
Thank you so much. ^_^
amazing. something about seeing Cloud look out over the landscape...
Thank you.
I feel like I'm tripping on Loco Weed while walking around the 3-D terrain between Kalm and the Chocobo ranch but I love FF7 and this music! Keep up the great work. :)
Very nice. I was honestly expecting something overly complex but this is perfect. It really manages to capture the feeling of the original yet sound unique too!
Thank you very much! ^_^
Beautiful! 🎄💚🎄
Hehe! Thanks! ^_^
This theme is so sad, makes me cry every time (but in a good way). This is beautiful, Rebecca, well done 👏👏👏
I feel that! FF7 is a heartbreaking game in many respects. Thanks!
Half the reason this game was so great is the music...you blew it out of the park with this!
Thank you!!
This sounds sooo good :D
Razore' Arcwolf i think clouds either in wutai or near Mideel?
You are so prolific that I have probably not listened to 1/10th of everything you've made, but in lieu of writing the 600 million comments that you deserve, I just wanted to say that this is divine ^^
Thank you so much! :)
Early Christmas present, thank you! :D
That little bit of Aeris' theme at the end punched me in the gut. I had to go to the washroom so no one would notice the tears!
Thank you for spelling it Aeris. I've always thought it looks so much better that way than the "correct" version of Aerith.
This is utterly fantastic! Definitely one of your strongest works so far, I would say. You kept it true to the original while still instilling your own perspective into it. Bravo!
Whoever you made this for, I am sure you made them very, very happy with it. :)
P.S.: I came across your work a while ago (and have seen/heard it on OCR as well) but, for some reason, forgot to subscribe to your channel. Consider this error rectified. :D
Thanks for the subscription, and for the comment! ^_^
I made it for my partner. We sort of have a tradition where I make him orchestral renditions of his favourite VGM on his birthday and Christmas. He did like it! LD
And to think I was just rewatching FF7
Good timing. :D
RebeccaETripp Yee XD
Well, you made me think about which theme from the saga is my favorite one, and I have found indeed this one is also my favorite one amongst every other one :D I always appreciated the complexity and diverse parts done for this epic song :) Even when I love the much the world map theme for FF VIII, I felt a little disappointed about this one hadn't so much variety in his own.
This arrangement is also great, even when I missed the brass from 4:20 approx. That part is one of my favorites in this track ^_^
Thanks for another year of your GREAT art. Have a Merry Christmas!!!
Thank you so much! ^_^ Merry Christmas to you too.
Final fantasy forever. 👍
This gives me wonderlust .It's my favorite exploration music to play when adventuring in any game 🙂♥️
Tears in my eye‘s 👍🏻
thank you Rebecca for this Remake - just wonderful...
Another masterpiece by Rebecca!!! love it love it.... buying your FF collection
All I can say is that I am honoured! Thanks. ^^
Endless 💕
A beautiful cover made with your magical style, I like the part at 5:55 where you make a reminder of Aeris Theme
This is absolutely beautiful
Yeah. I was thinking about that too. Maybe they'll have it so that the main theme plays but not 100% of the time.
@@RebeccaETripp as long as its in there somewhere ill be happy 😊
Oh this could definitely work in FF15 style.
Btw that's a huge dillema for Square I bet. When they made a big leap from PS1 to PS2 (hence FF789 to FF10) they were able to awe us with the graphical details in the towns. But what about world map? Alas, they knew they couldn't deliver that same level of awe and details. So they instead opted with that whole teleport system where you go directly from one point to another (and build some direct linear paths in between). Everyone shat on FF10 back then for that.
Then in FF15 they introduced the world map as they did, and they still got shat on by a large portion of the FF community. World map is a real bitch.
I can’t wait to hear a similar ost of this for FF7 Rebirth when it comes out.
I love it so serene
That's beautiful, Merry Christmas
Thank you! :D
It's not even in my top five favorite Final Fantasy games, but I love this song. Definitely my favorite in the entire game.
2:47 I got goosebumps and happy tears.
Thanks!
Thanks!
You win at Final Fantasy orchestral arrangements. You fucking win.
P.S.: Your orchestral takes on Final Fantasy scores are the most authentic to the original anywhere on the internet. It's easy to see the love in it. We all thank you, from the bottom of our hearts.
Thank you so much! I do put a lot of love into these. ^^
@@RebeccaETripp, a testament to how truly great this rendition is: I just listened to it, again, and immediately had the need to comment on how love filled and respectful it is, having forgotten I already made such a comment. Incredible.
@@Tiago- ^_^
Stunning!
Thank you! ^_^
Nothing makes me miss being in 4th grade, playing PS1 in my childhood home more than this song.
So magic 😭😭😭
can we expect more FF7 songs coming? lovely song by the way
Yes, definitely! ^_^ It's one of my top five soundtracks in the series (the others being 3, 5, 6 and 9). The tracks I'm mostly likely to go after from 7 are Buried in the Snow, Forested Temple, Chasing the Black Caped Man, Fortress of the Condor, Tifa's Theme and Barret's Theme. Also, Holding My Thoughts in my Heart, Interrupted by Fireworks and On that Day 5 Years Ago!
Would you accept a request/suggestion in terms of Tifa's theme? @@RebeccaETripp
@@ChipNoir I have that on the list for sure!
I like how ps1 cloud is just sitting there in the 4k graphics soaking it all and being like: "Wait this ain't the ps1"
Oh Rebecca, you did a perfect job on this, I have no words to express my feelings. You should do the soundtrack for the Remake ^o^
Thank you so much! ^o^
Hey! I love your Zelda tracks and always listen but just found this a moment ago after looking up the new Final Fantasy 7 Remake trailer and this is beautiful!!
I had the thought that if this theme had been made the exact same 200-300 years ago in a classic orchestra, would not music like this considered to be among the best of the classics? Beethoven, Bach, why not? What is less about Mr. Uematsu's masterpiece then other great pieces of music?
This is very true of Uematsu's melodies. I've thought this often as well! Like, if Tchaikovsky or Debussy had composed virtually ANY of Uematsu's strong melodies (of which there are hundreds), they would rank among the most popular classical pieces today!
listen on repeat
I'm so glad you like it that much! ^^
Hi @RebeccaETripp. This is a great cover of Main Theme in Final Fantasy VII. However, at 5:03 , I noticed that there were missing part that starts with chords :
Em (2 bars)
E dim (2 bars)
Em (2 bars) (these were the missing part in the score)
C#m continued with 5:03 onwards.
It's a cover though. I usually change a lot of stuff!
Incredible.
Thanks a lot!
Impressive work
Thanks! ^^
Could you do a cover of Holding My Thoughts in My Heart?
I am working up the courage to do that. That song makes me cry more than any other game song!
Just knowing you're thinking about it means a lot!
Merry Christmas Rebecca!!
Merry Christmas. ^_^
Seriously you get everything about this right. Can you do us all a favor and talk to everyone involved with the ff7 remake and tell them this is how it's done? Then drop the mic.
One Winged Angel: Best villain theme
FF7 Main Theme: Best BGM
You don't know how fast I clicked on this
^_^ I hope it was worth it!
2:00
damn, I miss being a kid
MadSeasonShow bring me here
I listen To this nearly every day of my life, your arrangements make this song even more complete than the original, thank you.
Ps: do you plan on working someday on the funniest themes? Like Caith Sith's , Golden Saucer's, Corneo's or Yuffie's?
Greetings from France
I'm likely not going to do those themes unless I make another FF7 medley some day.
Lovely.
feels like junon should be at the end of the coast
where is this background? there was something charning about boxy people walking over pre-rendered or photo- realistic backgrounds back in the late 90s
Well, it's a photograph mixed with a screenshot from the game. >:3
N O S T A L G I A
I always wanted to go back to Disc 1/Part 1 just for this music...
salut, j'imagine que c'est du taff, mais je trouve que celle de nobuo uematsu est un chef d'oeuvre a coté, il y a des note qui se croise qui dénature tout, aussi bien nobuo uematsu que final fantasy 7, je pense qu'il n'y avais rien a changer, just y metre plus de cœur et de sentiment, regarder comme le chef d'orchestre s'amuse comme un fous c'est magnifique et non manifake
Hi Rebecca, thank you for my christmas present, how did you know? :P
I work closely with Santa. He played the tuba in this.
Exploring the world and trying to juke the Midgar Zolom. Nostalgia.
Juke it? Hell, I would always grind enough to be able to beat it, and get that sweet, sweet ability for the enemy skill materia.
I hope the world map will be good in Rebirth. And I hope they include it and actually make it big. You can go from Town to Town. And you're not actually bigger than the town 😂😂😂
I very much want that! I like the way they handled it in FF12. It had zones, rather than an open world, but it really felt like an open world!
Tripping on lsd rn
How was it?
I just beat FF VII remake and this is the music I will always hope to hear but I will never do.
I suspect that the overworld arrangement will be one of the better ones in the remake.
I’m playing FF7 Remake currently. It’s fine. It’s good. But it doesn’t have the ADVENTURE of the original.
website is down :(
What was there can still be viewed on the Wayback Machine.
Yeah. I need to renew it, but I'm having some issues.
Is the picture from the Bay of Fundy?
I don't remember this screen in game. Is this you just putting cloud into a pic of some place?
Can you remix songs from final fantasy 6
Check out my channel, haha.
Ok but can you make remixes of don’t starve?
