We listen to some relaxing, study, sleepy-time chill vibes music from Final Fantasy (and Chrono Cross!) Alongside plenty of bonus pieces we focus in on Fisherman's Horizon of FFVIII, Daguerreo of FFIX, and Behind Closed Doors of FFXIV. What mystery songs did we choose? How many of these are on your relaxing playlist?

We dive into maybe the most famous piece of Final Fantasy music ever, One-Winged Angel of FFVII. How far has its cultural impact grown? What genre is it truly in? How is it not a total mess given its structure and composition style? And how come its so... AWESOME?
