Best VGM 1475
A collection of my favorite videogame music. Note that most of them are from games I played so I might miss some great ones from games I never played.
SNES
Radical Dreamers (1996)
Star Stealing Girl
Yasunori Mitsuda
Sahbabii
Da hora.
Cool.
I went to an American school overseas, and there was a kid a couple grades up that had this on a floppy drive in MIDI format; he’d let me borrow it and he then moved, and I was left with it. He’d always say that it was from a game by Squaresoft (we were both Square fans), but I could never remember the name, and the file was titled merely “Star Stealer”. Fast forward to 2001, and I’m playing Chrono Cross; “Star-Stealing Girl” comes on, and my heart drops. I still get chills when I hear this song, and it’s one of my favorites to this day.

All I could picture is kid leaving serge after learning she is really schala reincarnated. (Radical Dreamers version)
She's more of a clone if I recall. Schala is totally still alive. Just, no longer Schala. She fusion danced with Lavos.
this is just perfectly beautiful

Eh... it's decent, but if I want videogame based sample stuff, I'll listen to Mega Ran. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3XQholYqEAk
ayyyy waterboyzzzzzzz
Sounds good , but the PS version is phenomenal.
Mitsuda is a magician
@Emiko Gale You're not alone...
Fjfhmoim uh fNk th kw :) nk
Love that song ! This version and the chrono cross version
This game is many but not forgettable.it gets my itnto a storywrigther:)
Il me semble que "le trésor interdit" figure aussi sur l'écran titre de trad us, tout comme c'est le nom de l'épilogue dans l'ost. Ca reste curieux car en jap sur cet écran titre t'as du japonais normal que je sache (pas du katakana transcrivant du français), mais bon c'est comme ça.
This version is more beautiful and touching imo, but I have to say that the CC version is beautiful too, it's just personnal. Oh, I don't like Kid at all, so when I hear this song, I remember Harle crying on the S.S Invincible.
Wow, very deep song. Sure invokes some sad emotions within me. All I can picture is Kid and Serge talking around a CampFire. I much prefer this version, though both are great.
I agree wholeheartedly.
Tu es Français, Supradarky ? C'est le patch Français de Terminus Traduction ça! J'ai adoré ce jeu texte !!
Beautiful.
Fucking christ is this little tune powerful. Manly tears are shedding my friend.

This arrangement of "Star Stealing Girl" feels so nostalgic, passionate, and brave. It's used very differently in Radical Dreamers than in Chrono Cross.
Thank you for posting the real version.
@solidus927 I agree. there's just something about the SNES sound that somehow manages to be more soulful and touching than anything modern technology can create.
SupraDarky has excellent taste in video game music.
Old games are made of love and passion, not graphics.
I come from the future to say "ok boomer"
@Adoki Now return to your Fortnite or similar shit
SNES music capacities were truly amazing...
i like this version better
Am I the only one who feels that this version of star stealing girl is a bit more happier, and the Cross version seems a bit more sad?
definitely agree
Not many people know about the original version. Great post, SupraDarky.
@0B3L15koLi9hT Um... no, it's not. I'm referring to the part that starts at 1:06 in the Chrono Cross version. I'm not referring to Radical Dreamers at all.
@SupraDarky Actually, it's the 'prequel'/'prototype' of Chrono Cross, although some parts of it are canon, some parts have been re-introduced to the remade/rereleased chrono trigger, and some parts are still questioned about in terms of canon....
@azaki44 Very, very cool. Thanks man.
AH finally quite possibly the most beautiful vgm ive ever heard....
This is so beautiful...
By the way, this is a beautiful piece coming from Super Famicom/Super Nintendo hardware.... A very, very beautiful musical piece indeed.
Sorry guys, I've been so out of touch with my fabled Japanese gaming history for a couple of years now (Been so busy trying to establish my life, pushing through work and paying bills). However, the music and the thematics of Japan's (Square's, Capcom's, Konami's, Atlus', etc.) greatest games have and will never leave my mind and my heart.
*Sighs* I can sense familiars nuances of musical pieces derived from Chrono Trigger, Chrono Cross and Xenogears. Well, the songs from Radical Dreamers and the other games mentioned do come from the same composer after all: Yasunori Mitsuda. I know the name of the song from Chrono Cross but I never heard of the Square game of the same name. What's it about and how does it relate to the Chrono games?
For Supra: /watch?v=Y3RCDa6qo6w You're almost at 1,000 noteworthy VGM! Keep up the good work!
@elementalkirby make that 2
Wow, kinda surprising that with 934 songs you haven't done the song "Radical Dreamers - Unstealable Jewel", yet. Not that you need to, just surprising considering how many Chrono series songs have been done.
@SupraDarky I'll give that this wasn't as good as the other two, but it does have plenty of good points you have to wonder why they dropped in Cross. The characterization was much better for the majority of the characters, Magus was in RD(he was planned for Cross, but dropped toward the end of development), and the connections to Trigger were much stronger. Even if not very successful, it'd be nice if we could get some form of Radical Dreamers anywhere outside of Japan.
@GodTangrowth Yeah. I thought Frozen Flame from RD was a direct port, but it's not. The CC port has an oboe as the lead instrument, the bass more complex, and there are some slight chnages in the piano.
I got the entire soundtrack uploaded here: /playlist?p=PL74CD74B3335F6087
This one is great, but I think I prefer the emotional vocals in the Chrono Cross version.
i like the song so ambient
Everybody who likes Chrono Cross should know ABOUT this game and its relation to CC.... but not necessarily have played it. Like Supra said: mostly forgettable.
It's interesting to see the development of this song, as it reappears in Chrono Cross. A lot of the songs and story for Chrono Cross were seen in beta version in Radical Dreamers. This makes it a really interesting game, but only if you're a hardcore Chrono fanboy (there's a translation patch). Otherwise, it's pretty forgettable.
I play and I finish this game. It was special, but awesome. Of course, it's useless for the story of the saga.
This game was only released in Japan. It's basically a text-adventure game on the SNES from the Chrono series, which is why some themes like this one reappeared in Chrono Cross. I finished it a couple years ago and it was interesting but mostly forgettable.
