BestSnesMusic's video: Saddest SNES Music: 1 - Forever Rachel - Final Fantasy 6

Like in the original countdown, there really was no doubt in my mind as to which song would take the number one spot for this one. Final Fantasy 6's "Forever Rachel" is played during key points in the game where Locke's past is explored (for a more in depth explanation please see my video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zguR3ngGhCQ ). This is an extremely special track because unlike most themes (which generally represent a character or location), "Forever Rachel" chronicles a story; a story of two lovers torn apart by tragedy, and in doing so, rises up past other sad music and is able to stand as its own independent track. This song really has it all: love, loss, sorrow, redemption, and through its sheer beauty Locke and Rachel's romance leaves the imaginary confines of the video game and becomes something deeply personal and undeniably real. Unfortunately, I'm not sure who did the amazing artwork (I randomly googled them) but if anyone knows please tell me and I'll give them credit!
