Final Fantasy IV is known as one of the most highly regarded RPGs of all time, and for good reason. Interesting characters, a classic battle system and an engaging plot all helped set it apart, but what stood out most for many players was its truly masterful soundtrack.
Nobuo Uematsu's timeless score has been remixed by a slew of artists and fans alike, but rarely is it done such justice as in the video below.The band On Being Human have taken 11 of the most memorable tracks from Cecil's adventure and woven them all together into one epic medley that's sure to please.
It's not their first achievement either, as we've featured them several times before for their similarly stellar work in remixing the music of Super Metroid and Killer Instinct. Their interpretation of Final Fantasy IV is even better when combined with live footage from their performance at MAGfest in Washington DC recently, so be sure to check it out.

Hot Damn this is all coming racing back! I really really need to get back to this now! I got horribly stuck against a fire archfiend in the subterranean area.

Dat Boss Music
Justin Carmical at the end made me sad
The arrangement is interesting and all, but theres a real range in the audience isnt there. You can clearly see people with blank expressions, but also random...fist-pumping?
ARE YOU READY TO ROCK! ... Looks like we got a awkward crowd tonight guys
Ahh darn I thought FFIVwas coming to 3DS got my hopes up again dang it
You know i have to post in here right! Where else can a game say spoony bard and becomes a hit video game phrase!
@Spoony_Tech wasnt that VII?
@Tsuchinoko No, are you crazy lol! Tellah and Edward were in IV and Cloud was in VII.
I love it! Like to see more of this type of music in games.
That was fantastic. It was sex for the ears.
Very nice. FF IV was indeed my favorite which just proves how old I am. The tunes were, of course, driven into my skull while playing but fortunately it such well composed music that it nostalgia only sweetens it and this is a great medley and a great treatment. Went and bought a few of their songs. (Not sure how I missed that Metroid one!)
THIS made my day... Being snowed-in in Alabama was kinda sucky, but this makes me feel quite in a better mood My snowman met an unfortunate fate of Katana through snow action...
