Farewell and thanks for playing: Favorite credit songs

[Bakuma1997]

After hours of pain, frustration and triand and error, you finally defeat the final boss, or clear the final minigame, or finish the championship track, anyway, you finally finished the game, when you don't get a dull "You win" screen, you instead get the credits of all those who worked as hard at making the game as you did playing it, ¿Which song is your jam? the Dream eater is listening

YAY, I FINALLY BEAT SHIN MEGAMI TENSEI 1, IT ONLY TOOK
MY MOM MY NORMAL LIFE, THE ENTIRITY OF TOKYO AND ANYTHING THAT DIDN'T SINK IN THE FLOOD now let's enjoy the credits song

Klonoa 1's ending definitively absolutely totally didn't left me bawling in the floor crying over its unfairness, the credits, as beautiful as the game itself

To lighten the mood, something goofy for a equally goofy game

Do songs just before the credits count?

 

[Waffles's iconWaffles]

This one rocked my goddamn ears off.

What an epic way to end the adventure, specially after the Tong ending:

 

[Andromeda_The Fallen]

Kurenai (Y0), Ichibanka (Y7) and The Invaluable (Y8) - Like a Dragon
Never More - Persona 4
Seijaku no Forutishimo - Melty Blood Actress Again
No more no - No More Heroes 2

 

[ciro64]

This game really rips the bandaid off at some point in the story, so to see all the different folks dancing together in celebration at the end is a well deserved and emotional happy ending.

Trying to find the older one to see if it needs a merge, in case anyone have the link it would be appreciated

I cant be bothered neither. But I've posted the same song that DunkeyKong did in that older thread. as an homage. Such a classic song.

I am the wiiiiiiind. <3

 

[E0N]

My pick will be P3FES and P4G. After looong hours of playing they treat you with a banger of a track as a farewell gift.

I don't think the credits play, so maybe it doesn't count, but Chrono Trigger's ending music gets me every time.

Same with the ending of the first Kingdom Hearts (spoilers if you haven't played before). When those hands separate and Utada's voice kicks in, I'm done. Call a therapist, I'm going to be emotional for a while.

Holy crap! Madness! I haven't seen that in ages. I watched those videos (and played Madness Interactive) religiously in my teen years.

I couldn't seem to find an older thread, though I was looking through the forums for quite some time. The old thread must not use "End Credits" or "Ending Themes" in its title, if there is one.

In response to the question:

I love Marvel vs Capcom 1's ending theme. It's full of style. I only wish I found a cleaner rip of the theme that features the characters.

It's like the movie Inception, but with RGT threads.

A threadception.
