I have been learning Japanese to play this game in its original language and am planning to learn the piano to be able to play its soundtrack. I know I am not the only one doing this. I can't think of any video game / movie that has been so inspiring to so many people.

Nobuo Uematsu's music sounds great when arranged for piano! The Piano Collections are fantastic, if you can play them. Uematsu was a big part of my childhood and it was a bummer when he stepped back from composing so much, but Masayoshi Soken has done amazing work on FFXIV, he's a worthy successor. I really like this piano arrangement of the Endwalker soundtrack https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wRmXuN53ggw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wRmXuN53ggw

Back in 2000 when I was originally learning Japanese, I played through Final Fantasy 7 and stopped every time I didn't recognize something and looked it up in my Denshi Jisho. It was tough but I made it through the whole game! Good luck from a fellow player who's already walked the path you're walking.

  There's a lot of FF7 that made my childhood. Reading the article seems like a blast from the past.

my favorite music was red 13's village one

  Aye cosmo canyon is a classic - the game is full of just so many bangers. I really haven't resonated with game music since that era in the same way. Last game music that really caught my attention was Hollow Knight

    I find "A Secret Sleeping in the Deep Sea" really takes me back to my childhood.
