Isn't the main song from Final Fantasy 7?

I know I've heard this song before, but can't seem to find it.

Edit: Think I found which game I was thinking of. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1WiuwwKUtbA

[-Will Lose- gumpiu papa]

Yeah that's what I was thinking. It sounds familiar, if you find out where it's from I'd appreciate it if you let me know.

That didn't help answer my question though. And I can't find it there either.

Whoops, my best guess is Moonlight Sonata.

It's not moonlight sonata. I think it is some famous classical piece though.

The credits say "Music (Sixteen Waltzes, Op. 39) which is Brahms.

[Doo Doo]

I think the credits are referring to the in game music, not the menu.

the main menu song is gymnopédi no.1

wasn't it used in towns? maybe?

Some of the songs are Public Domain (via the fantastic MusOpen[musopen.org]) & so we didn't cram them into the Credits (sounds like people might have wanted that... maybe we'll go back and do that).

We also have Mozart's String Quartet no 19, Sixteen Waltzes by Brahms like @moop mentioned, and Tomaso Vitali's Ciaccona performed by Paul Pitman ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2G6tXPslgYQ ).

Would be most cool to get this all sorted out into a little embedded music-player. We don't have many UI elements though, so that might be a bit of a pain. I did this for another game a while back & people loved it. Hopefully will add that eventually!

It is in at least 2 video games you fool. It's in Remember Me and Grand Tourismo 5 that I know of. Thanks for being the Validictorian at Clown College for me. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1WiuwwKUtbA

it's a song from the public domain so it's just normal you've heard it different's games. it's also featured in lot's of different movies.

it's just too old to have a copyright on it.

Although of course a particular recording of the piece can be in copyright.

@BrandeX: that sounds cool! Will look into it, thanks! :)

PS: please don't bag on ppl for knowing songs from different locations. We're all deeply flawed (me especially... I mean have you seen the bugs? ;)) and we're just here to have fun ^_^
