Top 10 Hip Hop Song Outros

Once again it's time for some hip hop, this time around I'll be focusing on some of my favorite song outros. As the name would imply, an outro is the closing of the song, it could be a change up in production, a spoken word piece, a sample, or even a few bars short of a standard verse that sums up things.

1. 2Pac - Hit em Up

Easily one of everyone's favorite 2Pac songs as well as diss tracks in general. The passion laid throughout the whole track is ferocious, not to mention pretty much sampling two of the songs from artists that he was dissing at the time. "Player's Anthem" and "Get Money" by Junior M.A.F.I.A. and The Notorious B.I.G. What really makes this song a great diss and one of my favorite outros is the scathing minute and a half long outro where he goes into depth quite well and directly names all the artists he has any issues with from New York. The sheer amount of anger you can just imagine that he felt while recording this song is felt whenever you hear it.
Outro:
"Now you tell me who won
I see them, they run
They don't wanna see us
Whole Junior M.A.F.I.A. clique dressing up trying to be us
How the fuck they gonna be the mob when we always on our job?
We millionaires, killing ain't fair but somebody got to do it
Oh yeah, Mobb Deep: you wanna fuck with us
You little young-ass motherfuckers
Don't one of you niggas got sickle-cell or something
You're fucking with me, nigga
You fuck around and catch a seizure or a heart attack
You better back the fuck up
Before you get smacked the fuck up
This is how we do it on our side
Any of you niggas from New York that want to bring it, bring it
But we ain't singing, we bringing drama
Fuck you and your motherfucking mama
We gon kill all you motherfuckers
Now when I came out, I told you it was just about Biggie
Then everybody had to open their mouth with a motherfucking opinion
Well this is how we gonna do this
Fuck Mobb Deep, fuck Biggie
Fuck Bad Boy as a staff, record label and as a motherfucking crew
And if you want to be down with Bad Boy, then fuck you too
Chino XL: fuck you too
All you motherfuckers, fuck you too (Take money, take money)
All of y'all mother fuckers, fuck you, die slow, motherfucker
My .44 make sure all y'all kids don't grow
You motherfuckers can't be us or see us
We motherfuckin' Thug Life-riders
Westside til we die
Out here in California, nigga, we warned ya
We'll bomb on you motherfuckers. We do our job
You think you mob? Nigga, we the motherfuckin' mob
Ain't nothing but killers and the real niggas
All you motherfuckers feel us
Our shit goes triple and 4-quadruple
You niggas laugh cause our staff got guns under they motherfuckin' belts
You know how it is, when we drop records they felt
You niggas can't feel it, we the realest
Fuck em, we Bad Boy-killers"

After hearing something like that, I really can't imagine what would be going on in the minds of his enemies. It's simple, aggressive, direct and no beating around the bush, "Death to the enemies" is the general idea. Considering at the time he was under the assumption that they were the ones behind his 1994 shooting, it makes sense for him to be so angry however. Regardless, great way to finish a track.

2. N.W.A - One Less Bitch

 Once again a song that's a bit violent, but still another classic track. Dr. Dre gives 3 verses full of killing prostitutes for various reasons then MC Ren comes after with a verse of the same kind. Just looking at the song title you can tell it's not going to be a very female friendly probably but what really drives the point home is the outro of course which puts it on this list.

Outro:
"In reality, a fool is one who believes that all women are ladies
A nigga is one who believes that all ladies are bitches
And all bitches are created equal
To me, all bitches are the same
Money-hungry, scandalous groupie hoes
That's always ridin' on a nigga's dick, always in a nigga's pocket
And when the nigga runs out of money the bitch is gone in the wind
To me, all bitches ain't shit!"

 That outro (provided by Eazy-E) sums up the song quite well, I might not agree with the sentiments personally, but I can still look at it objectively and say that it's a fitting ending for the type of song it is. The passion and straight forwardness is great and it's relatable to anyone who has had to deal with the type of person that he's describing.

3. T.I - Why you Wanna

One of my favorite tracks by T.I. Two verses and a hook that really ask the question, quite literally, of why do you want to be with him when I have this that and the other thing. The intro brings it home with him talking to the woman in question directly about how he's laid things out and she has to make up her mind. Something I and plenty of others can relate to as well, all in all a great song with an outro that really makes you question your own situation.

Outro:

"This nigga playing mind games man
I think the time came, that you mind changed you understand
Life is like a chess move, you need to make yo next move
Yo best move, keep it pimpin' you understand... hey
I mean you know what I'm sayin I don showed you how I feel
You know what I'm sayin, I put myself all the way out there you know
The ball in yo' court man, but I just got a question for you...
Is you happy?"

Is she really happy with her man? T.I asks her firmly, explaining the differences between him and her current man. Great way to finish a nice track.

4. Ab-Soul - Beautiful Death

 Top Ab-Soul track and favorite song on his album that it comes from, Control System, the concept of the song is death, and between his verses, the hook, and the guest appearance of Co-president of TDE, Punch they definitely kill this track. The instrumentation is beautiful, and like death, the song is ended by an outro that leaves you wondering, is next?

Outro:
"Tragedy after tragedy, I know it's sad to see
America killing her babies like Casey Anthony
We try, we try to cope and hold on to our sanity
Popping ecstasy will surely shorten life expectancy
We travel the seven seas in hopes for a little peace
We promised pie in the sky, I'm dyin' to get a piece
Put down your piece, I'm wish you all a beautiful death
Peace"

Really speaks volumes, with a great flow and wordplay he speaks his peace. You can tell he really put thought into how he wanted to finish the song, which was done quite well and one of my favorites.

5. 2Pac - Picture me Rollin

 Another classic 2Pac track, this being one of the songs from his double disc album, All Eyez on Me throughout the track he speaks on how things have changed now that he's out of jail and how he's going to live life nicer than before. Shown once again in a long outro, he explains just how things are now as well as shouting out a few of his homies.

Outro:
"Is y'all ready for me?
Picture me rollin" roll call
You know there's some muh'fuckers out there
I just could not forget about
I wanna make sure they can see me
Number one on my list: Clinton Correctional Facilities
All you bitch ass C.O.'s
Can you niggas see me from there?
Ballin' on y'all punk ass!
Picture me rollin', baby
Yeah, all them niggas up in them cell blocks
I told y'all niggas when I come home it's on
That's right nigga, picture me rollin'
Oh, I forgot! The D.A
Yeah, that bitch had a lot to talk about in court
Can the ho see me from here?
Can you see me, ho?
Picture me rollin'
And all you punk police, can you see me?
Am I clear to you?
Picture me rollin' nigga, legit
Free like O.J. all day
You can't stop me
You know I got my niggas up in this motherfucker
Manute, Pain, Syke, Bogart, Mopreme
It's sad dog, can you picture us rolling?
Can you see me ho?
Is y'all ready for me?
We up out this bitch
Any time y'all wanna see me again
Rewind this track right here, close your eyes
And picture me rollin'"

One of his more well known songs, he delivers one of his most well known outros, calling out the District Attorney, The Prison he was in, as well as the correctional officers (C.Os) and he ends it with lines that just stick with you and really bring home the idea that he really saw himself dying soon. If you want to see him again, like he said, just rewind the track, close your eyes, and picture him rollin. As always, his fans will do just that.

6. Charles Hamilton - Falling & Balance

 Charles Hamilton brings it once again, giving you a track about about the ups and downs of a relationship, hence the "Falling and Balance".

Outro:

"I'm so crazy about you..
I just.. All the time I see you..
I just.. I don't know how to explain it..
I just.. I know there's something there
I just.. We got, um..
I don't ever know what I'm talking about..
Just hit me up another time.. Maybe I'll make more sense then
Haha.. I just don't wanna let go
And not have enough faith in us
Yanamean?
I kinda got used to waking up with you
So like waking up and not being around you
Just.. It don't feel the same
Forreal
I miss you

I miss you
I miss you"

Simple, sweet, to the point, he loves this woman and misses her. What else is there to really say? He spills his heart out on yet another track, and has that relatability that is oh so important. He needs balance, and I hope he finds it in her, or perhaps another woman. This is the kind of song you can send to your girlfriend to let her know you been thinking about her, which is nice, it's not really offensive and it's open and honest.

7. Lupe Fiasco - Body of Work

From Lupe Fiasco's album, Tetsuo and Youth, considered by many to be a big step up from his two albums before it, this song is just one example of why some fans of his feel that way.  Metaphor after metaphor and beautiful instrumentation. The outro however is my favorite part of the song and probably the whole album, it doesn't really have any lyrics to be exact, it's mainly a saxophone solo by saxophonist Terrace Martin with some background vocals by Troi. Really one of the most beautiful instrument solos I've ever heard and I don't have much more to say about it besides listen to it and see for yourself.

8. Lupe Fiasco - Madonna (And Other Mothers in the Hood)

Another track off of Lupe's album T&Y, this one refers to mother's raising their children in the "hoods" and the unfair situations they are put in because of their poverty and surroundings. The outro is where chills will more than likely be sent down your spine and a few tears might be shed.

Outro:

"Mama said my son never been no killer
Mama said my son never been no gangster
No drug dealer, no gang member
Mama said my son never been no trouble
Mama said my son never been no trouble"

The children in question have mothers, knowing they're not bad kids, but the streets don't see things that way, they're harsh, and can be dangerous. You don't have to be a criminal to be treated like one sometimes. Lupe makes that quite clear in this breaking finisher to an amazingly laid track. 

9. 2Pac - Against All Odds

 The last track of The Don Killuminati: The 7 Day Theory, released shortly after the death of 2Pac, and under his new moniker, Makaveli. This was once again another track aimed towards artists from the east coast, including Mobb Deep, Nas, and Puffy, among others. The title letting you know that he is truly going against all the odds, as the east coast was a pretty unified front of rappers that pretty much dominated the airwaves and had what many would consider some of the best at that time. He ends the track and with it the album with an outro letting you know that the beef isn't yet over even though the album might be.

Outro:
"Against all odds
Twenty-one gun salute
One love to my true thug niggas (Outlaw! Outlaw! Outlaw!)
Twenty-one gun salute to my niggas that die in the line of duty
Representing to the fullest being soldiers with military minds
That play the rules of the game, twenty-one gun salute
I salute you my niggas, stay strong
I ride for you, I rhyme for you, I roll for you, it's all for you
To all you bitch made niggas, I'm coming for you
Against all odds, I don't care who the fuck you is, nigga
You touch me I'm at you
I know you motherfuckers think that I forgot
Hell no I ain't forgot nigga
I just remember what you told me
You said don't go to war unless I got my money behind me
Aight, I got my money right here, now I want war"

With his real homies and against his enemies to the very end. The background noises of helicopters and guns competes and compliments his serious direct tone he takes with his enemies here. Battle ready is the mind frame he clearly shows here.

 10. Charles Hamilton - Disambiguation

This is a track full of Charles recalling details from his childhood and his relationship with his mother and then a verse about another woman who he doesn't give any exact hint at who. The roughly two minute ending of the song after his verses is filled with him yelling some unintelligible things at times, among some other seemingly random words but there's something about it that just makes you feel his pain. The instrumentation at this part is also what makes the song feel so amazing and heavy, it's best played with some headphones and bass. The title of the mixtape/album that it comes from is "Substance Abuse" and this is the kind of outro that really makes it believeable that he was abusing some substances at the time. With the random yelling and everything, not to say that it's bad in anyway, just very sporadic, and unconventional, but still one of my favorites. If that's not enough, check it out for yourself, the guitar section alone is very compelling. Charles has been through some pain, and this is one of those songs and outros that really lets you know that.

Top 10 R&B Love Songs

Since I did my top 10 Hip Hop love songs it only makes sense to do R&B as well. Love songs are some of my favorite type of songs to listen to, when I'm in that mood of course. Let's begin shall we?

1&2. Case - Missing You/ Joe - Missing You

Album: Open Letter(Case)

Released: 2001

This song here is a classic to me, I've spent quite some time listening to it and thinking about the women of my life. It's just as the title says, a song about missing that person that you love. The song was originally recorded by another singer, Joe, but it was given to Case for his album. That being said both their versions are great, and personally I listen to Joe's more but that's only because I didn't know of Case's version until later on. Whichever one you decide to listen to is purely up to liking the singer's voice really, as the lyrics are the same and the production only has slight differences if any. The lyrics use simple similes such as
"Like a cold summer afternoon
Like the snow coming down in June
Like a wedding without a groom"

to show just how much the women in question is missed, simple  but strong imagery there. What would a wedding be without a groom? It just wouldn't make sense, which is the idea. It just doesn't make sense to be without you.

3. Ginuwine - Love You More

Album: The Senior

Released: 2004
The song that you listen to when you realize that you love that person, and further yet as the chorus says you love them more everyday.
"I love you more everyday
You show me love in every way
There's nothing left for me to say
But I love you
I love you more everyday
You show me love in every way
There's nothing left for me to say
But I love you"
A simple statement, no need to be complex. A true sentiment on how true love really should be, the more you find out about that person the more your love grows, if the opposite happens then it seems like you're not following this song. In all seriousness, there's not many love songs out there that can top this for me. The alluring instrumental, Ginuwine's harmony and passionate vocals serenade the hearts of women everywhere.

4. Ginuwine - How Deep is your Love
Album: The Life
Released: 2001
 Questioning the very depth of the woman in question's love with this one, Ginuwine once again makes my list. This is a question that I'm sure comes to the mind of anyone who has felt love for someone else, whether you're a man or a woman it's a relatable inquiry. I know I've surely had this question for any woman I've fallen in love with. The woman in question apparently has had problem with men in the past and he's trying to be the one to show her that all men aren't the same, she just needs to put her trust in him and love him in return and he won't let her down. Something that hits me on a personal level defintely and something that is a fairly typical story but to no detriment of my enjoyment of the song.


5.  Michael Jackson - Break of Dawn
Album:Invincible
Released: 2001
It just wouldn't be right to make this list without having a Michael Jackson song here, I just can't see it. "I don’t want the sun to shine I want to make love
Just this magic in your eyes and in my heart
I don’t know what I’m going to do - I can’t stop loving you
I won’t stop ‘til break of dawn making love"
Singing a chorus like this just makes memories rush back of good times with that special someone. Feeling hopelessly in love and not knowing how to live without them, or at least you feel like it at that point. The central theme is making love until the break of dawn, another very simple concept yet a beautiful one at that. Also the instrumental sounds beautiful and a bit nature-like, thanks to the sound of the birds chirping at the beginning and later on in the song as well.

6. Craig David - Fill me In
 Album: Born to do It
Released: 2000
If you were a teenager in love with someone and had parents that were maybe too over protective than the whole subject of this song probably relates to you. Not to me too much but it's still a great song for me musically and although I can't relate personally to it it's still a favorite of mine. The whole song comes from the view of a teenager trying to spend time with his girlfriend who is also his neighbor and how she has to sneak out to see him because her parents do not approve and how they're always asking questions and suspicious of her actions and whereabouts. A childhood favorite of mine and still one to this day. A song about young love at it's finest.

7. New Edition - Can you Stand the Rain
Album: Heart Break
Released: 1988
The title says it all, this song has New Edition asking the woman in question if she can stand the rain, or in other words can you stay by me even when times get rough, or will you leave the relationship because things aren't as easy anymore. A question that I've asked a few women in the past myself I'm sure, not quite in those words though. The production sets the tone of the song quite well with the sound of a storm going on the background. New Edition doesn't fail to deliver love ballads, it's really that simple for me. 

8. New Edition - Something About You
Album: Home Again
Released: 1996
   As I said, they just do not fail to deliver love ballads, this one is a bit more uptempo but another great one. 
"Over and over and over I try
To get you off of my mind
But I can't win the fight
There's a feeling I know
When I'm losing in love
It's the feeling I get when I can't get enough"
Basically having that woman stuck on your mind to the point where it seems obsessive, but it's just love, and at times it can feel that way. It's an internal struggle trying to get someone that means that much to you out of your thoughts, and this song sums it up nicely. Something about the woman in question is addicting and based on these lyrics it's pretty obvious. I know the feeling all to well and this song is one that hits close to home pretty often for me. Musically it has a bit of a hip hop sounding production which is nice as well.

9. Ralph Tresvant - Sensitivity
 Album: Ralph Tresvant
Released: 1990
Another track with a New Edition member, this one is a solo song by Ralph Tresvant, the lead singer of N.E for a while.  The name of the song is the idea, he wants to be the sensitive man who is caring and loving, in contrast to the man that the female he refers to is used to dealing with. As shown pretty clearly here. "Girl, I know it's been hard since he went away
And left so sad you cry everyday
Let me kiss your tears erase all your doubts
Because for you I'm here, you won't be without, love"
Far too relatable of a song for me, very personal strong connection I have to this song from prior dealings with women and knowing about their former relationships. A hit with that New Jack Swing feel, that really drives the point home that some women need that sensitive man, they just don't always realize it.

10. Carl Thomas - Emotional
 Album: Emotional

Released: 2000

Emotional, a phrase people use to describe me which is pretty fitting I suppose. Makes sense for me to like this song as much as I do then. This is another one that probably relates to people quite well, what do you do when that relationship with that person just starts to lose it's luster? "What's a man to do when he just can't take no more
What am I to do when my heart leads me to the door
Now we've tried and tried again
But now this is the end
Tell me what's the use of holding on
If we can't be friends"

When the option of even being friends is no longer what is the point of continuing the relationship? After all the best relationships are built on friendship they say. Easily one of the most beautiful songs I've had the pleasure of hearing.

It's a challenge to listen to all songs and not have the memories come rushing back, really almost impossible it seems. It's a challenge though that I accept willingly, and lay out for others to see.

Top 10 Video Game Tracks

With a love for music and a love for video games, it only seems right to mix the two together. Video games often have an OST(Original Soundtrack) to go along with the game and set the mood, it can be quite an important part in video gaming to players. Perhaps a character just died? The music might change to reflect such a tragic instance and slow down. On the other hand you might find yourself in a race against your opponent and the music will then be of a quicker paced variety more upbeat to match the circumstances.

Possible spoilers ahead 

 

1. Space Trip Steps

Game: Sonic Adventure 2

Released: 2001

Artist: Hunnid-P

This song is easily a top on the list without question, from both a musical and thematic setting it just fits. First off it's a song for Knuckles, all his music in the SA games are hip hop themed, which makes me like his more so than other characters. Also as a character I think he's pretty cool, although I'm not too keen on his levels being all about finding emerald pieces. The stage that the song takes place in is Meteor Herd, the 14th stage of the hero story. It takes place in space, and one of the interesting things about the song itself is that both the instrumental and the lyrics match the stage. They're pretty direct and simple yet fitting and catchy, for example:

"Took a shuttle to space, and left from our home, At least we're with friends, and I'm not all alone, Bad thing was, that the Emerald spilled, Got to search space, man, time to get in" 

He's telling the story of why he's in space in the first place, so the song is seen as more of a narrative told from the perspective of Knuckles himself. 
Overall it's a great song from one of my favorite video games of all time and I find myself listening to the song even out of the context of the game itself.

2. Weltall

 Game: Saga Frontier 2

Released: 1999

This track here plays during the Desert Megalith scenario once you get to the town after the desert. It's not only one of my favorite ones in the whole game but it is one of my favorite of all games entirely. The story of the game at the time of hearing this track is that Wil Knights is searching for the man who can tell him what happened to his parents. That man would be Alexei Sergein, long story short, Alexei and his brothers are responsible for the death of his father, which you learn from talking to various npcs in the town and piecing together the story while this beautiful music plays in the background. It really brings back memories, nostalgia for the times as a child playing this game full of wonder and excitement. It makes me think of what happened that fateful day with Wil's father and his group of fellow adventurers. It's a purely instrumental song with various instruments that I can't even begin to name but the name of the song translates from German to English as Space, Universe, or Comsos. A beautiful song that still gets replay to this day for me.

3. Title Theme

Game: The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time

Released: 1998

The title theme of The Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time is a masterpiece, from a classic game. The piano chord is beautiful, and the various other instruments in the background combine for a truly memorable listening experience. I'm sure I'm not the only one who started the game and would just listen to the song for a while before starting to play, if even playing at all. The song is calming yet a bit sad, and seems like a bit of foreshadowing for some events of the game. It really sets the mood for jumping right into one of the best video games of all time, and is one of the first games I've played that really showed me how important music can be to video games. This is a song that can have you shedding tears, or even something you can just relax and fall asleep to. Beautiful

4. Boss Fight Theme
Game: Megaman X5
Released: 2000 Japan, 2001 NA.
Once again another song with a pretty generic title but still great. This one plays during a boss fight, it's very uptempo and the type of song I could hear being played in a club that plays a form of EDM. It definitely puts you in the zone for fighting the eight robot masters without a doubt, it makes you want to dance too which is not the greatest idea while you're fighting perhaps, but surely listen to it out of context and it's still a great song. My favorite boss theme of any Megaman X game, and a proper fighting tune.

5. The Supernatural
Game: Sonic Adventure 2
Released: 2001
Artist: Everett Bradley
Another song from Sonic Adventure 2, this is the song for Shadow the Hedgehog's stage Final Chase, and as the name says it is the final stage for Shadow. Also as the name says, it's basically him trying to catch up to Sonic the Hedgehog, which the song really puts you in the zone for. Clearly a fitting song told from the perspective of Shadow as noticeable from the lyrics like such:
"I am the ultimate life, a flawless existence
Nothing is unpredictable to me, nothing can surprise me
I am the mystery of the world, I can tell it by their cold eyes
I am the warrior, it's my way to go"
 Definitely seems like something Shadow would say, no? The lyrics might be hard to understand, but that great EDM sounding beat more than makes up for it to me.

6. Fly in the Freedom
Game: Sonic Adventure 2
Released: 2001
Artist: Tabitha Fair 
Once again another song from SA 2, this is the last one on the list however from that game. This is the theme song for Rouge the Bat, who happens to be the only female playable character of SA 2 and is the rival to Knuckles pretty much. Her levels, like his involve searching for the pieces of the master emerald and chaos emeralds. Albeit for different reasons, she is more of a jewel hunter and he is looking for them to put the emerald back together, making them surely at odds for most of the game.  With lyrics like "Fly in the freedom" referring to her ability to fly, as she is a bat and "Is it my treasure? Tell me what I've really looked for" hinting at the fact that she's a treasure hunter always on the search for her next jewel. Her song, is a kind of contrast to Knuckles, where his is Hip Hop, hers is more on the Jazz side of things. To me though they both have the best theme songs out of any character in the SA games.


7. Disharmonie
Game: Saga Frontier 2
Released: 1999
A track from SF 2 again, this one plays during some tense situations, the one that sticks out is a scenario called the Southern Fort. Gustave's fort is under attack by a seemingly enormous horde of monsters and this is the song that plays during the time of the fort being set on fire, followed by Johan the Assassin standing guard out front of the fort ready to crumble to pieces at any moment but fighting solo against the monsters regardless. Assuming you've never played the game, just imagine that scenery and listen to the song at the same time, trust me they go quite well together. Anyways, it's a song that gives you a sense of urgency and danger, one that I find myself listening to still now years after I've played the game multiple times. It definitely fits the mood of the game in the times that it is played, and a great song outside of that as well. Also, the name of the song once again is in German, but the English translation is pretty obvious if I even need to mention it, it is Disharmony.

8. Moonlit City Roa
Game: Legend of Mana
Released: 1999 Japan, 2000 NA.
Easily a favorite from the Legend of Mana soundtrack which was no slouch when it comes to the music selection. Some words that come to mind, beautiful, mysterious, melancholy, and thought provoking. This song plays during your stay in the city of Lumina, which involves a bit of a romantic subplot, and this song covers that so nicely. Such a peaceful piece of music, it brings me back to my days of childhood playing this game and enjoying the music.

9. Open Your Heart
Game: Sonic Adventure
Released: 1998 Japan, 1999 NA.
Artist: 40 Crush
This is the main theme of Sonic Adventure as well as playing during the fight against the final boss of the game, Perfect Chaos. PC being the form of Chaos once he's absorbed the negative energy of all seven chaos emeralds. Once again the lyrics are quite fitting for the fight, such as "Thunder, rain and lightning
Danger, water rising
Clamour, sirens wailing" because during the fight with PC and preceding to it, the whole city is flooded. "Ancient cities blazing
Shadows keep attacking
Little children crying" Another callback to an event that happened in the game, or perhaps foreshadowing if you've heard the song before playing that part. The song gives a sense of dramatic times where someone has to step up and defeat their rival, and if that's what the people behind it were striving for then they did it surely. One of my favorite songs of the game and series.

10. Forest Temple
Game: The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
Released: 1999
As the title says, this is the song that plays during your time in the Forest Temple of the game. If you ask some people who've played the game they would say that the song is perhaps creepy and mysterious, and when you listen to it while in the temple itself it adds on a whole other level of mystique. The temple itself is quite odd at times and confusing, the song adds on to it greatly. From constant rattling noise to the wind instrument in the background coming in and out every so often, then the sound of a voice making some kind of grunt that is also quite randomly placed throughout it. The song is somewhat eerie, but also quite peaceful and calming, which is what I really like about it. Probably my favorite song out of the temples, and one of my favorites in the whole game.
