quiz time -- what's your favorite underrated track?

Phew, okay. This is a very emotional thing for me to dive into.

My favorite song is the FC House theme. I saw a comment on YouTube that perfectly illustrated how I feel about it, and it's something quite melancholic for me, it actually goes deeper than anything that can be described as nostalgia despite it's FC nature.

This is my favorite song in the game too, and it's one of the very few actual complete songs that don't sound like a 3 second loop.

There are quite a few that stand out to me (not surprising, considering how great the music in general is) and it's somewhat tricky to gauge what's actually underrated. However, one thing that certainly comes to mind is the FC Demon Room. It's kinda hard to tell exactly why, but the beginning has an odd quality that somehow resonated with me. Overall, it kinda sounds melancholic and happy at the same time, but that describes the FC music in general very well.

Another one is the Barracks Settlement (aka Refugee Camp). In a game with pretty dark tracks, this one takes the cake. It sounds utterly desolate and hopeless and is pretty much the most depressing track in the entire game.

Then there's Checkered Tile Path. It's both melancholic and mystical, but also has a somewhat uplifting feel. It's certainly one of the tracks I associate with Yume Nikki the most.
