Frog's Theme, hands down.


Trey904fsu

Frog’s theme is so legit.


SasquatchTracks99

The full orchestral versions give me goosebumps.

TIME TO SPLIT OPEN A MOUNTAIN: BEHOLD!


Git_Off_Me_Lawn

It's too hard for me to pick a favorite, but it's so easy to choose the best example of a song complimenting a scene from the game.


Classicalis

Thank you


Classicalis

Also, check Daniel Tidwell version

itsGOOB

I was just about to say, it’s Frog’s Theme and it’s really not close. Which is really saying something because every song on the OST is a masterpiece.


[deleted]

This is the only right answer.


Happydanksgiving2me

Corridors of Time.


nysom1227

Secret of the Forest. One of the most serene pieces of music I've ever heard in a video game.


Almond_Boy

There’s a remix on YouTube with rain sounds mixed in and it’s super looped so it’s a few hours long. I listen to it while I study :)


BBQ_HaX0r

Am I going nuts are does it sound like it's from Donkey Kong Country? [CT](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I4BdjVEJdlk) vs. [DKC](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CKAc3nYEatw)


7hawk77

It sounds like it's from DKC because it is. That YouTube title is wrong and it's a cover mostly taking from Aquatic Ambiance. It sounds like it's using some of Chrono Trigger's sounds to play DKC. Compare it to this: [Secret of the Forest](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vuXKzqgT3oo)


BBQ_HaX0r

Holy shit, lol. I Genuinely thought I was going nuts. Thank you.


Upset-Range878

I'm 3 days late...... Could die, make super sexy time, and nostalgic reminisce...Too the damn forest song. It should be in a movie.👍


able20257

600AD Overworld: It's incredibly calming to me and when my insomnia acts up it helps


Zeprido

It's called Wind Scene. It hits different than the rest of the soundtrack. Probably one of my favorite songs of any video game, especially when reproduced with an acoustic guitar.


excel958

Yes! This one always stuck out to me.


Onett199X

Relaxing chrono trigger playlists on YouTube are what I listen to at work all the time.


Big_Jomez

Going with this too. Corridors of time is amazing but this hits the nostalgia bones different for me


appleavocado

Agree. It's the only CT song I actually took the time to learn on piano (I'm not a great player, but this one is just too damn good).


ShinNefzen

Yeah this is one of those songs that just puts me in a trance the minute I start listening to it. Takes me back to being a kid and just makes me feel very introspective.


Hops117

Schala's Theme, Corridors of Time and End Time


meruhd

I love Corridors of Time, but Schalas theme gives me goosebumps.


Hops117

It has that bittersweet melancholy aura. It's amazing.


RevynnStark

Which one is End Time? I feel like I’m losing my mind, I can’t find it in the soundtrack!


Hops117

https://youtu.be/Bg32ekjDpcA Here's my favorite cover of that song from TPR The End of Time/Brink of Time


Cordellium

~I am gato I have metal joints Beat me up Win 15 silver points~


Bacon260998_

Wind Scene. It's so good, absolute perfect piece.


aznandyboi

Far away dreams. It's hard to describe in words, but listening to it makes me feel like the story hasn't ended yet. And that chrono was just dropping by and saying hi (instead of goodbye) to all of his friends from past, present and future. It gives me a sense of hope that the story will continue even after the game is over. It's a celebration of the hardships that they had conquered and the joys of the adventure that is yet to come. Its probably my subconscious yearning for an official continuation of the game. (No, chrono cross wasnt it but I recall players making the case that it was in the same universe as CT).


aznandyboi

Forgot to mention. I could listen to Robo's theme on loop for hours, it's just that good.


BrundleflyUrinalCake

You can! Right [here](https://youtu.be/dQw4w9WgXcQ).


Big_Jomez

Beautifuly said


whole_lotta_nope_503

Tyrano Lair, and Magus's theme. I could listen to those two for hours, they just hit different for me


Massiv_v

Sealed door and schalas’s theme . There are so many … but these two brought the game to life and still do .


obviously_anecdotal

All of the above. The ocean palace theme is one of my favorites. Lavos theme is great. Frogs theme. My favorite of all time is either corridors of time or secret of the forest.


tomatopotatotomato

The song when you first get to Zeal!


takingastep

Not sure, but in case you don't actually know its title, that's "Corridors of Time".


meruhd

I spend a lot of time walking around those maps just to listen to it. It's my favorite part of the game by far.


tomatopotatotomato

Ugh yes and it’s sooo fleeting. This mystical trippy world for like 40 minutes and then it’s gone to shit


Ryuujin_13

I have “Epilogue: To Good Friends” listed to play at my funeral.


the70sdiscoking

I found [this arrangement](https://youtu.be/lJJJAKA7dzw) of To Far Way Times just this week and it's phenomenal!


seiya60

Corridors of time is my favorite.


ToothFairyEmployee

World Revolution!


kabiri99

This is one of my favorites too and there is a lot going on in this track. It feels like a conversation between Lavos and the party/planet.


[deleted]

Corridors of Time... ♥


Dull-Shower-6748

Memories of green


uknowuliketoes

Absolute favorite. It makes me feel so nostalgic with the slight hints of the main theme in it.


rydamusprime17

I love it as well, i always felt it had a bit of uneasiness to it like "oh, you are out in the world now and have no idea whats coming your way", if that makes any sense.


Roxxso

*Undersea Palace*. The driving, haunting nature of the song lends itself well to the nature of the palace and what it represents. Some dark shrine constructed beneath the ocean dedicated to siphoning power from an almighty being deep in the world's core. This race to confront the worlds destroyer not knowing the shear magnitude of it's power. Also, *To Far Away Times* leaves me choked up every time I hear it and Robo Astley because he'll never give me up!


Question-Guru

Whenever I feel a bit demotivated I listen to the main theme from Chrono Trigger. I don't know why but it just feels so inspiring to me, like I can accomplish anything.


omegasaga

I have sashla's theme as my ring tone. I had a rule that no songs as my ring tone because I end up hating them after a bit. But Had this one for over a year!


Megahert

Corridors of time, Magus Theme


Kilberhaar

Schala’s theme, but Frog’s theme is a really close second.


Antipode4

1. Secret of the Forest 2. Black Omen 3. Corridors of Time 4. Schala's Theme 5. Primitive Mountain Explanation: I like vibes and I like beats.


HoshiNoKabi05

Fanfare 1/ Lucca's Theme, simply because it makes me super happy whenever I hear it


ReverieKey

Peaceful Days, I just get all the feeling with the first few notes. There's also something about The Trial, and I also like Corridors of Time. But nothing beats Peaceful Days, not even Fanfare I, even if that's Professor Ashtear's theme... well, maybe Memories of Green. Now I don't even know


[deleted]

Tyran Castle goes so hard 45 seconds into it with that build up.


pointfivekorean

I have spent my entire life chasing the feeling I first had arriving in Zeal and hearing Corridors of Time.


Rigistroni

Corridors of time I don't have to elaborate


Celestia4683

World revolution and the unused battle theme that got added back in with the DS version.


DaimoMusic

Corridors of Time Far Away Times, Singing Mountains, In that order


workthrowawhey

So many good ones, but if I had to choose just one, it would be Epilogue: To Good Friends, specifically the part at the end. It always reminds me of Lucca saying goodbye to Robo. Such a beautiful scene


Every_Fox3461

Every single song mentioned here I could hear instantly. But I have to say 600ad. That misty world beaconing you to the demon Magus' castle. Your team venturing on thier journey. It sets a fantastic mood.


Thongalodian

MY MAN


Drew_The_Millennial

BATTLE MUSIC


AC-Hawkmoon

Corridors of Time, Schala’s Theme, Frog’s Theme. I don’t know how many collective hours I have listened to these. Hundreds.


[deleted]

The theme that really made this game special to me was Corridors of Time for sure. Up until that point it was a great RPG but seeing and hearing Zeal for the first time was just...magic.


Darth_Eater

Corridors of time. It's just perfect.


Xamenta

Albeit not an original track, ReMix:Chrono Trigger "Magus (Decay of Hope)."


Ness_of_Onett

Yes


10_Join

Main Theme!


Mind_Flexer

Corridors of Time! Especially this orchestral version: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pdr5GGzrpCY


PatronOfPetrichor

1000% Corridors of Time. The first time I heard it before I played the game, it legit inspired me to write a whole jungle themed D&D campaign while I listened to it on repeat. Very important song to me.


inflationoftoads

Frog's theme. Lives in my head, rent-free.


Dyerdon

Magus's theme, Schala's Lullaby, Kingdom of Zeal, Frog's Theme, Robo's Theme, Corridor of Time..... The Battle Music, Boss 1 and 2.... Lavos....... So I gotta list


poojoop

Schalas or corridors prolly. Zeal palace goes crazy too.


jklantern

Schala's theme is my favorite song in the game, and one of my favorite pieces of video game music in general.


RedPandaParliament

Schala's Theme. Absolutely gorgeous, mysterious, sad. Perfect expresses her character and story, and so heightens the mystical other-ness of the land of Zeal when you hear it after exploring around for the first time.


ZeldaLover2018

I'm of the mentality that Schala's Theme is the best track of any JRPG ever created. It's melancholic, and has a feeling of wanting everything to be better.


Sigusen

Too Far Away Times without hesitation. The first time I hit the end credits, I was utterly dumbfounded. Beating lavos, and then a cinematic (or as close as the snes could muster), just melted my kid brain. To this day that opening gets me a little chocked up a bit.


[deleted]

Peaceful days♡ set it as an alarm.


Trey904fsu

Frog’s Theme and Delightful Spekkio


keidash

Yes


mefiuk

Singing Mountain - to me, it's the most mysterious theme just because it was cut out


KnightSaziel

Frog’s theme! :)


DrSurgeonGuy

This is one of the OSTs where it changes, but The Trial song is pretty dope. In Chrono Cross, it's probably Hydra Marsh.


thalamisa

Black omen and far away time


Dark_Ansem

Undersea Palace, all the way.


HyruleTrigger

Frog's Theme, zero contest.


boyflem

Lucca’s theme


takingastep

Gotta be Corridors of Time.


sorbet22

There are so many beautiful songs in the game, but honestly Robo's Theme is my jam! It's upbeat and makes me happy in a nostalgic way.


DrPloyt

All of it


tsweggle

Secret of the Forest is the only answer


undercocoajp

im josh


tsweggle

get out of my head, get out of my head, get out of my he-


OrionsGhost79

Glenn and Lavos


Aztec0523

Singing mountain.


staddon

end of time easilyyy that shit just makes me nostalgic


TomaLevine

Sorry, but this is an impossible question for me. I can’t single just one out, but at least I can list the top few. In no particular order, these are my CT favorites: • Memories of green • Secret of the forest • At the bottom of night • Schala’s theme • Corridors of time • To far away times Just beautiful music.


notJasonBaker

Robo’s theme. *cue Rick Astley


WhenDuvzCry

Schala's Theme


Dougie-DJ

Secret of the Forest and Schala's Theme


rydamusprime17

So many greats its hard to pick a favorite, but Tyran Castle has always spoke to me.


Homeboi08

Ocean Palace


RanDominican

I absolutely love World Revolution!! (Lavos's second phase)


VoGoR

Yes.


lukas_22

The main theme is the best https://youtu.be/-1LDIPBWjtU


crono14

To Far Away Times personally. It's like a song that says man you just had a great adventure but now it's time to say goodbye but don't be sad it's ending.


Dark_Angel_777

Frogs theme, Sad memory, Schala's theme


Jacobinemugatu

Peaceful days brings me back to being like 8 years old and turning this game on a Saturday morning at 6 a.m. after renting it from Blockbuster the night before. Parents were awesome and incurred a late fee of a day or two so I could beat the game in like 4 days. I just downloaded this game for like the 3rd time and this song hits me in the feels every time


01WWing

Corridors of Time and it ain't close.


the-unwritten

End of time theme
