[SotW] Song of the Week - WEEK 123 Voting/WEEK 124 Nominating

An unusual week.

(3 points) Game Music Concert 2 ~ The Best Selection - Wizardry V 'Opening'
I'm a bit disappointed, I expected something more than 1 point and some positive mention for my nomination. I think it's great in many aspects, but the first minute and half of the piece is utterly beautiful, so many emotions captured in that inspired build-up. After of that the piece adopts a more pompous tone and develops exquisitely, with exuberant passages, till its conclusion. I know it's not perfect, its two major flaws are due to the average execution of the composition by the orchestra and, above all, the poor recording quality.

(2 points) Perfect Selection Konami Shooting Battle - Nostalgic (Trigon)
I think this is the first sotw nomination from the legendary konami battle albums, which is a bit strange. This track, particularly, has never impressed me, yeah, it's pretty solid but for the most part not very exciting. However that last guitar solo is SUPREME, I didn't remember it that good.


(1 point) Ken Griffey Jr.'s Winning Run (Game Rip) - Main Theme
Good enough in spite of the eccentricity that accuses this track. Also, its unnecessary long is a factor that plays agaisnt. But these catchy effects are addictive, and not precisely insubstantials.


Rest of nominations are plainly unmemorable.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
