Came to the comments to see if this music hit others as hard as me. Wasn’t disappointed. This game was maybe the best I ever played. The soundtrack was perfection.
I like to listen to this music when walking through the corridors of my university campus, it gives me the feeling that everything will be alright and I will be able to make it through even the hardest of times
@@JDubDotEXE Shiiiit, I'm playing it...again... now, and if you don't have 100 tornados, quakes, and meltdowns to junction by the time you hit Galbadia Garden, you've done something wrong.
My 1st and favorite FF and PS1 since 1998. I randomly searched the PS store when I got my PS5 and God blessed me with the remastered. I was grateful to finish the game I started back then when I lost disk 4. So many memories and nostalogia while playing.
Ah man, losing the final part of a game is a killer - I had the same happen to me with Lost Odyssey, ironically - I'm glad you got to finish the story!
This is a lifesaver for studying. I chew through so much video game music to focus and I definitely have been needing something new. This is a track I used to leave my PS1 on just to listen to while I did other things, so it's been perfect. Here's to 2 months before graduation!
My "real world" job is in a university, and I hear a few students say they enjoy longform video posts like this for the same reason. I'm glad it's helping, and good luck with graduating!
@@metalstnick6664 It is common to see every student carrying their phones and headphones around. So of course, you can walk around campus with any song of your choosing and listen to it while walking in campus. If you can do that in campus, you can do that anywhere. You can do that when you grocery shop, walk in the streets walk in the park etc.
What I think is particularly great is that Uematsu knew that you'd be hearing this track a *lot* during gameplay, so made sure it was one of the best compositions he made for the game. Although saying that, the whole soundtrack is bangers!
Had a bad day all day. Soo I remembered the good old days. This music of FF8 popped in my head. Always puts a smile on my face. Thanks FF8. Definitely one of my top 10 games ever!!!
My childhood summarised in one ost, alongside with A place to call home of ff9. I can almost here the footsteps of the characters... Thank you and greetings from Italy
This game literally saved my life back in my teens. My teenage years were rough, to put it mildly. But FF8 completely pulled me in and away from real world problems for a while, such an amazing experience. Timeless music. This game deserves a remake too.
They're both excellent for different reasons, but VIII edges it over VII for me too. I think part of that might be that Uematsu had more experience writing for the PSX sound chip for VIII, whilst he originally started work on VII for the SNES before moving to the PSX. I don't know how much he had composed/completed at that point, but it's definitely food for thought!
@@JDubDotEXE VII is a very close second. For me it’s the incredibly emotional songs VIII has that makes me love it. This game’s soundtrack has always just resonated with me more than any other game
listening to this whenever i feel lonely. bring backs my inner early teen days. just sitting playing ff8 on a saturday morning. so calm and peaceful era.
I come back to listen to this song to suffer. I yearn so badly for the peace, comfort, and innocence I felt when this song would play as I watched my brother play Final Fantasy 8. I was still too young to understand, I couldn’t ever make it past Ifrit’s Cavern. It physically hurts my body and soul to hear this, knowing there was ever a period in time I could feel this happy. My brain has warped this memory so strongly it almost feels like I haven’t smiled a single time since then. I’ve been struggling to find a reason to live, to be honest. I spend every waking minute drowning in a pool of deep nostalgia, knowing I could never hope to be even a fraction as content and blissful as I was in my childhood. Why continue fighting this losing battle? I have never met a single person that could give me one valid reason to stay alive.
That's some pretty deep emotional damage right there. All I can offer is some small solace that the peace and comfort will be here whenever you need it...
I agree. I've been in a state of emotionallessness.... if there's such a word. But with some odd turn of events. If just an hour of complete bliss and peaceful music. Makes my day if just for a moment. Totally worth it. 😊
That's childhood for you. All our childhoods are so nice. Our young brains don't even know we are being abused unless the abuse is really bad. We felt love and safe. I think in adulthood, the path to feeling grounded and at peace is to find something you want to do and do it. Could be a profession or a hobby. Something that gives meaning and purpose and joy.
I feel your pain bro. This point in .y life my brother and i played this amd legend of dragoon and it was the only time my brother and i ever bonded. Life seemed so simple in those moments. Im hoping you can find some happiness in this mundane life! Im rooting for you!
I just beat the original FF7 for the first time before playing Rebirth. But since I can't really buy it now I figured I'd play FF8 cause I liked Squall enough in Kingdom Hearts. I'm only a couple hours in but this music stuck out to me immediately, it's really lovely. Thanks for this!
My infant falls asleep to this song and some more from this game soundtrack. The music from this game is composed so heart-warmingly: its hard to forget. It tugs at your soul like a cherished memory
I'm loving the VII remake, and excited to see where it goes, but would love VIII remade too. Walking around Balamb Garden with 2024 graphics would be awesome. Thanks for putting this together my guy! Got yourself a sub
i remember when i was a kid, and my parents where guests over a good friends house. they where talking and chattin, and i was allowed to play the only game that was on the house. ff8 on ps1. i'm german, and the game was all english. i've never played a game for such a long time. they didnt stop talking, so i was able to play the game almost the whole night. now i'm 30, and i still play this game. sometimes on the road, i use an emulator. sometimes at home, on my ps4. sometimes just for fun. both of my parents are dead now, but they shared the same dream - to never forget your fantasy. and that my friends, is final.
I'm beginning to wonder if there's some sort of subgenre or some label to put on this, there's been a few people drop by recently that say they've now got children but find themselves pining for this. Is this nostalgiacore?
You can even encounter this kind of music even at a grocery store. I remember when I went to Hong Kong Supermarket way back in 2006, Balamb Garden was playing in that background. Someday, if you take your kids to any supermarket, you might encounter this kind of song. Sometimes, you find strange music in strange locations.
I remember actually hearing this song 1 time at Hong Kong Supermarket. I know songs like this happen once so I consider this a rare song to listen to. I mean I would not expect to hear this song the 2nd time I go to Hong Kong Supermarket. So anyways, this song is part of a reason why I tend to shop at Hong Kong Supermarket. Weird right. We all hear this song from strange places. Just like the university you graduate from, you ended up hearing that song when you least expect it because who would of thought any university would like to reference one of the FF8 theme song?
I was at Toys R Us participating in a Pokemon card game tournament. I lost. To alleviate my loss I searched for a new video game to buy. I bought FFVIII and all was right in my world again.
I think if you were to level up Quistis and Rinoa (and everyone tbf) whilst having Squall KOed all the time it might be doable? I'm relatively sure I read that the enemies only scale in level to Squall, with the exception of some bosses, so I guess just having the handicap of one less party member is the challenge!
Crazy question but can you do this type of loop for the Galbadia Theme? I feel like all the extended versions for it don't exist anymore and the only one I can find will loop back to the beginning portion instead of it looping properly.
Hey there! I don't tend to do multiple tracks from the same soundtrack when I'm making videos, but I did recently do a set of 25 tracks from Hollow Knight as a collection, so never say never? I guess keep 'em peeled, I might do a Final Fantasy set at some point... 👀
Yes! That will be like going to sleep while everyone else stays up late during curfews. I mean when you go out on a training mission with Quistis, they will talk about how some of the cadets stays up late during that curfew hours. So that can be a reminder that you can sleep when it is curfew hours while others stay up late.
No matter what kind of RPG game you play, you need to stay in that 1 mission for grinding. If you don't grind, you don't stand a chance to beat the game. There are people who ignores that extra sidequest because they only want enough experience points to beat the game. Best of all, you have save state to begin with. People who claims they cannot beat it just meant they were busy and would rather just move on from that game and never look back. Any RPG is normally supposed to give people a reason to explore long term. If you have to back up a step to gain more level up, do that. You will discover that it won't be that hard. We all read guides online to find out where we all want to go.
@@JDubDotEXEShoot, with a place like that, I could do So much. I'd want combat training, herbal gardens for days (poor folks, veterans, refugees, orphans, and just about anyone helping out), classes on herbalism, classes on Magick/witchcraft, music, meditation circles, just about anything to help heal the body/spirit, etc.
You're mostly right, the pass through of Balamb Garden itself right at the beginning is part of the scene the music first plays from. But it was far to short to make a loop from for an hour so I used the intro video as well 👌 (It's also not the only video on this channel I've messed with things like that either, for similar reasons 😅)
I made a list of why Balamb Garden is better than Hogwarts (pls don't take this too seriously both franchises are cool) 1. Balamb garden has the nicest people in existence there (minus Seifer, but everyone hates him anyway). and a lot of people at Hogwarts is really mean :c 2. Balamb Garden has fun groups like the garden festival committee or the CC group. Wtf does Hogwarts have? 3. Balamb garden is GORGEOUS theres plants and water everywhere and fountains and rings all around it. Hogwarts looks like a dirty, old, stinky, castle. 4. The people that go to Balamb Garden are hot 5. the instructors in Balamb Garden are great. Quistis literally has a fanclub because people love her so much. only like 50% of Hogwarts teachers are nice 6. Hogwarts houses are problematic, it makes kids rival eachother. Garden doesn’t have that. 7. Balamb Garden is such a pretty name, it’s like a place where students can grow cuz it’s a garden and in Balamb! Hogwarts sounds gross 8. Balamb Garden is in this beautiful little island. Hogwarts is In Britain where you only see the sun about 3 times a year. 9. Balamb Garden can FLY. You know…like a plane. You're just trapped in Dipshit nowhere Britain for 9 months at Hogwarts 10. Balamb Garden is known for thier card players. You can go around and play cards. everyone loves cards. Hogwarts just has quidditch where kids get super injured at like every single game. 11.Balamb Garden takes in literal orphans and makes a home for them. they don't care who you are or where you came from. Hogwarts takes in “chosen ones” who are just random white kids 12. Balamb Garden will PAY you. you get paid for going to school. 13. The Garden will give you giant, powerful mythical forces to help your scrawny ass. Hogwarts will give you a stick and a broom and say “good luck” 14. Balamb got all kinds of ethnicities. Hogwarts has like all white kids. 15. Hogwarts is haunted, Garden is not 16. Garden doesn’t require uniforms unless your trainer asks you to change. Having the option to wear a uniform is nice. Hogwarts requires robes as uniforms all the time, theres no fashion there 17. Garden’s uniforms look really cool, especially that SeeD uniform. Hogwarts requires lame ROBES 18. Garden gives you sexy ass weapons like gunblades. Hogwarts give you carved sticks 19. Garden gives you these nice dorms with all this room for your shit (especially the rooms for SeeDs) You have to share rooms in Hogwarts. 20. Garden will boost up your SeeD rank depending on the good decisions you make. The higher your SeeD rank, the more money you get. Hogwarts will give you points when you make a good decision and whatever house gets the most points….gets a pat on the back and bragging rights. 21. Balamb Garden has delicious hot dogs and donuts in the cafeteria for students. Hogwarts has british food 22. Hogwarts teaches people about magic and potions and herbs. Balamb Garden does all of that and way more. They teach you magic, GFs, how to defend yourself, how to work with guns and swords. 23. you can literally bring magic and guns and swords in the building and nobody will stop you. If you could bring guns into Hogwarts, the entire series would have ended two books in. 24. Garden’s location is great, it’s on a nice little island with limited monsters (that you are trained to fight) and a cute little town. Hogwarts is right next to a go-in-and-never-come-out forest 25. Hogwarts burned down. Balamb Garden survived A MISSLE ATTACK thank you for coming to my ted talk
1999. I was 12yrs old. Now Im 36 and a father of four. ❤️
Four! You spread your SeeD a bit there 😂
@@JDubDotEXE a little bit yeah 😁

so many feelings in these songs...this game is a part of my life
Engrained into your memories forever...
It is ..this game was more then a game for me also i was 17 when i played this game it gave me wanderful memories
same for me i was like a baby when i play it with my dad and now this sounds are inked in me
whenever i hear this song i need to sit down its too much
Sleep with music although
Man, every FF8 Fan wanted to study at balamb at some point thinking this music just plays in the bg
Just on a loop over the tannoy, occasionally interrupted by Headmaster Cid rallying the troops! 😅
I know I did
A military academy that takes orphans and turns them into ruthless mercenaries and assassins? sign me up!
Balamb was the best university I ever was!!! 😢

It's actually today!
@@JDubDotEXE I know what a wonderful day :)
I like to listen to this music when walking through the corridors of my university campus, it gives me the feeling that everything will be alright and I will be able to make it through even the hardest of times
Sowing the SeeDs of comfort?
I would suppose if you have your phone along with your headphones, that will work. You can walk anywhere in that university campus with that music on.
I can hear the footsteps while walking around.
They had a very distinct "clack" to them, didn't they?
@JDubDotEXE They sure did LOL. I love this game so much. Wish it would be acknowledged more as one of the best FF games.
I miss my childhood 😢
Me too... we can only hope for a remake following FF7R!
I lived in Balamb when I played FFVIII
I spent way too many hours playing cards there...
"How many times I wished my School was Balamb."
Minus the training centre full of monsters and giant T-Rexes, I assume? 🙂
Still dreaming every day accompanied by this magical and timeless vibe
One day, everyone will go to school at a Garden!
My first ever FF game. So many memories. The drive to “100%” a game out of love rather than incentives like achievements and trophies.
Them were the days! *shakes fist at cloud*
You were driven to 100% the draw system?
@@opheIia7668 It's super-powerful in the early game to grab 100 of each of the available spells for junctioning!

My 1st and favorite FF and PS1 since 1998. I randomly searched the PS store when I got my PS5 and God blessed me with the remastered. I was grateful to finish the game I started back then when I lost disk 4. So many memories and nostalogia while playing.

Thank you for cutting the fade so the track loops properly, this is about to become a nightly listen

Find some time to yourself, fire up your PSX (or an emulator 🤫), and go back in time!
Now you too busy with non stop attending pride marches.
Yeah, I feel you bruh.
Flashback to when I first played this game
How real this all felt at the time!
Oh man i think no other game track hit me like this one. All the nostalgia dude, i freaking love this game as kid, spend so many hours.
What I think is particularly great is that Uematsu knew that you'd be hearing this track a *lot* during gameplay, so made sure it was one of the best compositions he made for the game. Although saying that, the whole soundtrack is bangers!

VII got a remake, rumours are that IX is getting a remake, why are they skipping this one? 😔
My favorite final fantasy game already got my pre order in for Final Fantasy XVI cant wait for my next adventure
I'm looking forward to XVI for many reasons, but part of me wants the soundtrack to drop just so I can make another video 😅
Had a bad day all day. Soo I remembered the good old days. This music of FF8 popped in my head. Always puts a smile on my face. Thanks FF8. Definitely one of my top 10 games ever!!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
A score I never get tired off, thanks for making this 1 hour loop!
You're welcome, this one is really taking off!

Im still playing ff8 over and over. As well as ff7.
I want to beat FF8 without letting Squall ever level up. There's an achievement for that in the remaster!
@@JDubDotEXE it is hard to do that without cheat. Because at the beggining squal need to get ifrit which lead in fighting and getting exp.
@@JDubDotEXE and at ragnarok spaceship, squal need to kill all monster on the ship to control it. Killing monster means getting exp and level up.
I think if you were to level up Quistis and Rinoa (and everyone tbf) whilst having Squall KOed all the time it might be doable? I'm relatively sure I read that the enemies only scale in level to Squall, with the exception of some bosses, so I guess just having the handicap of one less party member is the challenge!
i love how yabujin sampled this (in fantasy i trust)
Hadn't heard of Yabujin before, found the track, enjoyed the aesthetic!
This felt like the time when everything was simple.
Things were never simple, it was just before it was so obvious that they weren't...
Sorry, that's a little pessimistic, but I blame The Internet™.
They should build a University like Balamb Garden in Japan and play this sound forever!!
If they set it up to fly in the same way (spoiler alert) then it could travel the world!

it was beautiful :(
We can all relive our childhood through this game!

In the words of Man #2 when you (spoiler alert) crash into the town walls, "We just call it FH."
But yes, I agree!
When ever i wanna go to a different world and just get away this is my go 2
There's just something about Uematsu's mastery of music that allows you to drift away and be absorbed by the setting.
Crazy question but can you do this type of loop for the Galbadia Theme? I feel like all the extended versions for it don't exist anymore and the only one I can find will loop back to the beginning portion instead of it looping properly.
Hey there! I don't tend to do multiple tracks from the same soundtrack when I'm making videos, but I did recently do a set of 25 tracks from Hollow Knight as a collection, so never say never? I guess keep 'em peeled, I might do a Final Fantasy set at some point... 👀

Falls asleep ❤ 😴
Good night! 😴
Best game ever
Certainly a contender!
Classic ❤
Then, now, and forever!
If this song is not played in my funeral then I won't attend my own funeral!!
I've never thought of having a game soundtrack play at my funeral! Maybe Streets Of Whiterun for me.
How I miss the FF saga…😩
It really is a shame that we'll probably never see Square Enix embrace this style of RPG for Final Fantasy again...
Needs a true remake!!!!
FF7R: *exists*
FF9R: *rumoured*
FF8R: *ignored*
😮💨
Listening to this while doing the junction thing haha
Ultima on HP, Triple on Speed!
Doctor: sir you have one hour and 31 seconds to live
Me: say less fam
What a soundtrack to go by...
2024 💆 relax music

순수한 시절로 돌아가게 만드는 마법
그 당시에는 시대가 더 단순했습니다!
I wish I can go to this world
So long as they don't send more monsters from the Moon!
This will never impact me the way Tifa's theme does. Great tune though.😊
Each to their own, though I agree Tifa's Theme is damn good too!
When we had a lot of time to waste
*presses □ to play Triple Triad again*
とってもいい音楽だよなぁ・・・バラムガーデン
楽しんでいただけてなによりです!
FF8 needs remake but keeps the musical scores
I've heard rumours of an FFIX remake and I'm like "Why would you skip VIII?!"
perfect for sleeping💤
Enjoy your Garden dreams!
Yes! That will be like going to sleep while everyone else stays up late during curfews. I mean when you go out on a training mission with Quistis, they will talk about how some of the cadets stays up late during that curfew hours. So that can be a reminder that you can sleep when it is curfew hours while others stay up late.
I never could beat this game....😢
I don't think I ever managed it without the help of a guide in some places!
No matter what kind of RPG game you play, you need to stay in that 1 mission for grinding. If you don't grind, you don't stand a chance to beat the game. There are people who ignores that extra sidequest because they only want enough experience points to beat the game. Best of all, you have save state to begin with. People who claims they cannot beat it just meant they were busy and would rather just move on from that game and never look back. Any RPG is normally supposed to give people a reason to explore long term. If you have to back up a step to gain more level up, do that. You will discover that it won't be that hard. We all read guides online to find out where we all want to go.
Uma sound calma muito gostosa de ouvir.❤
Bem-vindo a zona calmante!
Obrigado.
Imagine a real life Balamb Garden one day 🤩
I'd spend all day challenging people to Triple Triad!
@@JDubDotEXEShoot, with a place like that, I could do So much. I'd want combat training, herbal gardens for days (poor folks, veterans, refugees, orphans, and just about anyone helping out), classes on herbalism, classes on Magick/witchcraft, music, meditation circles, just about anything to help heal the body/spirit, etc.
You're thinking far bigger than I am... I'll save the cards for the downtime I guess 😅
Garden reminds me of Hogwarts. they are two magical academies that puts minors in danger but we all want to go to anyway
The gardens, designs, and ecologic system remember me Venus Project
In fantasy I trust
In SeeD we believe!
Is this where the Dali Village theme in FF9 came about?try listening
Maybe a cross between this and the theme from Balamb Town itself?
There is constitution to the layout of the Political college and it studentry...a practicality to it
The layout has a certain something to it!
IN FANTASY I TRUST
In SeeD we believe!

….the video playing is the very beginning of the game and this particular cutscene has a totally different song lol 😆
You're mostly right, the pass through of Balamb Garden itself right at the beginning is part of the scene the music first plays from. But it was far to short to make a loop from for an hour so I used the intro video as well 👌
(It's also not the only video on this channel I've messed with things like that either, for similar reasons 😅)
@@JDubDotEXE i still appreciate you making this. it was the most iconic game for me as a kid
Most kids:
" Wish Hogwarts was real "
17yo Moi:
Guardian Force > Patronus
I made a list of why Balamb Garden is better than Hogwarts (pls don't take this too seriously both franchises are cool)
1. Balamb garden has the nicest people in existence there (minus Seifer, but everyone hates him anyway). and a lot of people at Hogwarts is really mean :c
2. Balamb Garden has fun groups like the garden festival committee or the CC group. Wtf does Hogwarts have?
3. Balamb garden is GORGEOUS theres plants and water everywhere and fountains and rings all around it. Hogwarts looks like a dirty, old, stinky, castle.
4. The people that go to Balamb Garden are hot
5. the instructors in Balamb Garden are great. Quistis literally has a fanclub because people love her so much. only like 50% of Hogwarts teachers are nice
6. Hogwarts houses are problematic, it makes kids rival eachother. Garden doesn’t have that.
7. Balamb Garden is such a pretty name, it’s like a place where students can grow cuz it’s a garden and in Balamb! Hogwarts sounds gross
8. Balamb Garden is in this beautiful little island. Hogwarts is In Britain where you only see the sun about 3 times a year.
9. Balamb Garden can FLY. You know…like a plane. You're just trapped in Dipshit nowhere Britain for 9 months at Hogwarts
10. Balamb Garden is known for thier card players. You can go around and play cards. everyone loves cards. Hogwarts just has quidditch where kids get super injured at like every single game.
11.Balamb Garden takes in literal orphans and makes a home for them. they don't care who you are or where you came from. Hogwarts takes in “chosen ones” who are just random white kids
12. Balamb Garden will PAY you. you get paid for going to school.
13. The Garden will give you giant, powerful mythical forces to help your scrawny ass. Hogwarts will give you a stick and a broom and say “good luck”
14. Balamb got all kinds of ethnicities. Hogwarts has like all white kids.
15. Hogwarts is haunted, Garden is not
16. Garden doesn’t require uniforms unless your trainer asks you to change. Having the option to wear a uniform is nice. Hogwarts requires robes as uniforms all the time, theres no fashion there
17. Garden’s uniforms look really cool, especially that SeeD uniform. Hogwarts requires lame ROBES
18. Garden gives you sexy ass weapons like gunblades. Hogwarts give you carved sticks
19. Garden gives you these nice dorms with all this room for your shit (especially the rooms for SeeDs) You have to share rooms in Hogwarts.
20. Garden will boost up your SeeD rank depending on the good decisions you make. The higher your SeeD rank, the more money you get. Hogwarts will give you points when you make a good decision and whatever house gets the most points….gets a pat on the back and bragging rights.
21. Balamb Garden has delicious hot dogs and donuts in the cafeteria for students. Hogwarts has british food
22. Hogwarts teaches people about magic and potions and herbs. Balamb Garden does all of that and way more. They teach you magic, GFs, how to defend yourself, how to work with guns and swords.
23. you can literally bring magic and guns and swords in the building and nobody will stop you. If you could bring guns into Hogwarts, the entire series would have ended two books in.
24. Garden’s location is great, it’s on a nice little island with limited monsters (that you are trained to fight) and a cute little town. Hogwarts is right next to a go-in-and-never-come-out forest
25. Hogwarts burned down. Balamb Garden survived A MISSLE ATTACK
thank you for coming to my ted talk
@@LyntzbartzkyPerez
Nice 👍
( Just to clarify that I'm not dissing Hogwarts. I do love both francises. But I prefer Balamb Garden more. )
Can you make this an 8 hr loop? Or longer
That would go against the channel being all one hour loops! 😅
@@JDubDotEXE I’m new to your channel. My bad
It's all good, don't worry!
If I would be one of those Elon Musk-level billionaires I would build the Balamb Garden just to run it as a private school. It’s just too perfect.
So long as you don't leave Elon Musk in charge of it that would be a great idea!
@@JDubDotEXE nah bro, just talking financials here 😂
