"Because the best thing in life is yet to come"

[ghostdrive]

There are times when I pop the Metal Gear Solid soundtrack into my CD player and do nothing but listen to "The Best is Yet to Come" on repeat, sometimes for upwards of an hour. Oh god, this song is incredible. ♥ I can honestly say that it is one of my all time favorite video game tracks EVER, and despite the millions of times I've heard it, it never fails to give me chills.

In case you have yet to have the pleasure of listening to this song...

The Best is Yet to Come -- Metal Gear Solid OST (lyrics, both the original Gaelic and the English translation)

Enjoy! And if you do download, please let me know what you think of it.

One of these days I'll actually get around to making that video game music pimp post I've been meaning to do for some time now. I promise to resist the urge to make it entirely of Okami tracks (even though I'm in love with almost every single track in that game). XDD

Of all the game soundtracks I own, the most retro would probably be the ones I have from the Lunar games, but I do enjoy listening to retro game music alot. The Sonic, Mario, and Zelda games would probably be my favorites. Oh! And old Castlevania games! And Star Tropics! ...I shut up now before I start making some long list. XD
