KUON - Memories of Waves and Light[edit]

The track often being referred to has "Eternity ~Memories of Lightwaves~" is titled in-game as "KUON - Memories of Waves and Light" (with another track listed as "KUON: The Troupe Performs"). While to some this may be a matter of symantics, "waves and light" is discernably different from "lightwaves", and with water being a prevailant 'theme' in both FFX and FFX-2, this is likely the intended translation. Even AltaVista's Babel Fish translator renders the Japanese title as "Eternity? Memory of light and wave?" (where the question marks are the translated "~"s in the title). I will now make these changes, along with lowercasing the "Real" in all instances of "Real Emotion". 68.1.123.175 03:10, 27 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

FFX-2 In-Game Titles[edit]

I was hoping that this page would have a track listing, but since it doesn't I'll put it here...

This list comprises the in-game titles given to the music track in the North American release of FINAL FANTASY X-2. The numbers given are coincidal with the Japanese release of the soundtrack (as opposed to the US iTunes release, which excludes the "KUON" tracks). Where a track number doesn't have a title next to it, this track isn't labelled in-game. Track titles followed by "[FMV]" take their title from a corresponding "movie sphere".

  30. Reunion [FMV][4]

In-game tracks not used:

  • "Remember that name well, loves."
  • "Joost leave it tae us!"[5]
  • The Colossus[6]

Note that I had to use the iTunes listing a couple times just to figure out which tracks were which, since it seems the "Internet translators' preference" is much different from in-game titles. For what it's worth, iTunes for once is much more spot-on than the Internet is for this one (and FFI/II/IV, IIRC). One notable occurance was track 2-23, labelled as "Clash" on the Internet. This bugged me since track 2-24 is labelled "Clash" in-game, but as "Struggle to the Death" on the Internet.

I post this because I hope that this page will receive a track listing, and I feel that games that give the titles in English (FFX/FFX-2/Dawn of Souls/FF Advance series) ought to have their titles listed alongside the "US titles" (read: "iTunes titles"). *sigh* It's a shame things like "Fight With Seymour" and "1000 Word (Orchestra Version)" throw that off, though, y'know?

  1. ^ I'm not sure which "'Jlitu!'" this is ("No. 1" or "No. 2"), so it's getting listed in both places. Methinks the OST's is "No. 2", though.
  2. ^ The music sphere menu has it as "AWTStA", but when it's played it's listed as shown, excpet that the lines seperate where the dash is. iTunes also titles it using the dash, so it seems to work.
  3. ^ This is shown as "Ending" on other places, and iTunes has it as "Ending - Until We Meet Again!". I'd probably label it with a colon instead of a dash, and using "'Synt,k!'" instead of "UWMA!"
  4. ^ Again, shown as "Epilogue" elsewhere and "Epilogue - A Reunion" on iTunes. I'd label it as "Epilogue: Reunion", myself.
  5. ^ see [1]
  6. ^ It seems that the music sphere "The Colossus" and the movie sphere "The Colossus" are different, but the movie sphere might just be the same track with a piano intro.

Missing albums[edit]

It seems this page lacks the the piano collection and the three vocal collections (Final Fantasy X-2 VOCAL COLLECTION YUNA,RIKKU & PAINE). The vocal colection are mostly singles consisting of four tracks each. Each sang by the character's own voice actress. Does anyone has time to add them to the article?--Mgbenz (talk) 01:38, 9 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Good Article nomination on hold[edit]

Article is neutral, broad in scope and well cited. No edit wars, the point posted above about the vocal singles has been addressed. Since reviewers are allowed to make minor alterations, rather than list a bunch of nitpicks here, I'll undertake them myself and leave descriptive edit summaries. In the meantime here's a couple of things:

  • Images - carrying the right tag, but inconsistent in regards to the usage of the FUR box, could that be used on each image please? Also, the 'source' isn't specified, rather a statement about where they could have come from. Were these scanned and uploaded by yourself, or did they come from websites? First image, the link points directly to the image itself, could you bring it up a level, so the link is pointing at the page where the image is featured? Also, please state the name of the website,
  • In reception, one sentence has four links on the end and another has three. For the early sentence (with four), please remove the two least important links. As this is the opening shot of the section, it contains details which are backed up further down, so long as it's got a couple of cites it's fine. For the three-cite sentence, it looks like one of them could be brought forward to cite the previous sentence. Any more than two references and it starts cluttering up the flow.

Right, I'm going to get on with those tweaks. Once they're finished I'll post back here. Someoneanother 16:15, 30 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Done, please see the article edits, if there are any you disagree with please discuss them here. Once the above are sorted, please drop me a line. Someoneanother 16:33, 30 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, the article has passed. One last thing which I should have picked up: right at the end of the "Final Fantasy X-2 Vocal Collection" section there's a triple-citation, could you shunt one or two behind the preceeding commas please? Nice work on these articles. Someoneanother 21:44, 30 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Titles[edit]

I've gone ahead and changed part of the Japanese titles from Romanji to English (specifically, I've done the Disc 1 part for the original Album). - Penwhale | Blast him / Follow his steps 10:21, 29 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Removal of album covers[edit]

If it's believed that those are too large in resolution or not relevant enough to the article to fall into the non-free use media rationale either tag them properly, discuss it or resize them, but not just remove them from the article. Ellamosi (talk) 13:06, 14 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Titus soundtrack and Elliot Goldenthal[edit]

I removed a sentence from the "Concept and Creation" section that is inaccurate. The cue in question was not sampled from the Titus score; rather, it comes from a commercially available rights-free sample collection. You can also hear the cue used in "Chronopolis" from the Chrono Cross soundtrack.

Since the statement was inaccurate and thus doesn't belong, the following sentence regarding Goldenthal becomes irrelevant to the article.

Here's what I removed for reference:

The composers also sampled a cue, "Titus' Vow" from Elliot Goldenthal's score for Titus for the track Zanarkand Ruins both of which can be heard at the Titus score page here. Elliot Goldenthal also composed the score for Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within in 2001.[1]

This is unsigned because Wikipedia is of the opinion that I don't know my password. ;.; —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.82.220.58 (talk) 22:15, 28 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
