In Italian, destati means “awaken,” so the song’s title seems to be alluding to the game’s theme of light over darkness, and we can’t think of a more fitting song to accompany the triumph of good over evil. It’s grand in scope – feeling like it was written for a fantastical battlefield showdown like those seen in the “Lord of the Rings” movies – and it’s highlighted by huge cymbal crashes and operatic singing throughout, giving it that over-the-top flair we love to charge into battle to.

This track has “EPIC” written all over it… no wonder it was originally used in early trailers promoting the first game’s release back in the Early 2000s and has been used in the series ever since. Sorry, our imagination gets away from us at times! This track was also composed by Shinomura and can originally be found during the boss battle between Roxas and Xion in “Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days” on the Nintendo DS and was later remastered for the “HD 1.5 Remix” version and played during one of Xion’s cutscenes. It’s the kind of song we can picture a prince and princess dancing to in a large ballroom while guests look on in awe… or something like that. This track slows the pace down a bit, offering a mixture of romanticism and grandiosity that tickles the ear with delight.
It’s a series known for its beautiful compositions and energetic, upbeat pop tracks, and while we sadly don’t have time to talk about all of them, we'd like to hear what some of your favourites are in the comments below. And the two styles go together like peanut butter and jelly… and we LOVE PB & J’s! Welcome to MojoPlays and today we’d like to talk about some of the best music in the Kingdom Hearts series. Disney films already had amazing soundtracks, as does Square’s Final Fantasy series.
