Dude, have you ever tried playing in heels? Throws your whole chi off.

Mahito Yokota - “Boss Theme (Variation 1)”
I have been listening to pretty much only the Skyward Sword soundtrack for the past two weeks. This is easily one of the standout tracks, an epic in chest-pounding, blood-splattering warfare. This song makes me want to clench a knife between my teeth and go to war.
“What are you going to war against?”
“What have you got?”

Mahito Yokota - Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword Ending Credits Suite
Fantastic full orchestra version of the ending credits theme from Skyward Sword. And dont worry, this isnt spoiling anything… unless you dont know what Zelda music sounds like yet.
The people in Zelda games are assholes
I guess I’ve always been faintly aware of it, but it’s really become apparent in Skyward Sword: the NPC’s are all fuggin jerks to you. And these are the people who are asking you to do them favors. In the same breath, they’re all: “Hey, you look dont have a life, why dont you go grab this thing for me?” or “You look weak as shit, but why dont you go kill all the bad things in the world and make my life easier?” Seriously, there are very few likable characters in these games. I realize I’m dealing with insecure people here and in the end, the glory from saving everybody’s collective ass is all mine. But you’re basically forced into helping these incompetent shit-bags if you want anything good; if these were real people I’d tell them to fuck right off a bridge and like it. You know what, shitstain, if you like bugs so goddamn much why dont you go catch yourself?? Even Zelda is a cunt, she keeps pushing you off things like it’s a game of tag. I think she’s made Link nearly plummet to his death several times in this game. And I’m not even sure it’s worth tracking her lost ass down, does Link even get himself some once these games are over? Does he ever find out if Zelda is a legend in the sack?

The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker - “Setting Sail One Final Time”
This is the final tune in Wind Waker and quite possibly my favorite of all the iconic Zelda music. The song is one minute, so you wont lose any time listening to it. But in that one minute, it conveys so much: leaving the past behind, moving on, and looking to the future. It’s optimism in the face of uncertainty, realizing that you’re not bound to fate, that your life is yours to live, downfalls and triumphs. To say that this song and game means a lot to me is an understatement.
