This song resonates with my soul because for me it’s my childhood

While most famously featured in "Kingdom Hearts 2", the song is actually from "Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories" which came out the year prior. Its one of the two themes to a place called Twilight Town, which is a fan favorite location that appears occasionally throughout the series.

This song is so good. So, something you'll like Geebz. This is the Familiarity title. The song is played as your background music during a long, seven-ingame-day tutorial of solving cool mysteries and being a kid. But then, the character you're with undergoes some event. And you swap to the character from the first game. Their music is the same basic sound, but it's also different instrumentation. The nostalgia factor is only there a little (as if you have a vague idea that this town meant something important to someone now gone, just like the new character does)
The second part is called The Afternoon Streets, and even that title change kind of shows the different perspectives of each character. Both see the same town, but one sees their love of the sunset they were always staring at, and the other the streets they're walking on.

This is the very first thing you ever hear in the game, and it's also one of the last. It also uses a similar instrumentation to the theme of the character who it represents. (Roxas, who has his own song you can listen to. Self-titled "Roxas" for the slow version or "The Other Promise" for a faster piece)
But, this song is all about a happy little town where the sun shines red across the skies in a near-24 hour sunrise/sunset. It's fitting that you call it a heartstring puller, since the character is regarded by those around him to be a special kind of person who lacks emotions. It shows his own internal depth.

I always love how clean and smooth the 2.5 Remix version sounds of this song, but there's just that nostalgic feeling when I hear the original midi PS2 version that makes it sound more bittersweet when you know Roxas' story.

This is an instant shiver-inducing song for me!

I've played all the KH games and I've been a fan since the first game came out when I was a kid. I'm 31 now and the music still gives me goosebumps, and I still highly enjoy replaying the games to this day. It's really awesome to see people outside of my generation enjoy a part of something I hold near and dear to my heart from childhood.

Keep up the good work my man!

Everything from the Kingdom Hearts Franchise touches my soul on a deep level. The series was formative for me, and all the compositions are etched in my heart. I tear up at nearly every song. A Mixture of Melancholy and nostalgia.

this is a song with a lot of nostalgia that definitely takes me back to my childhood playing KH2 at like age 13 lol was a fantastic series but we had to wait too long for KH3 Dx

I grew up on Kingdom Hearts and now over 15 years later the music still makes me cry.

I loved Kingdom Hearts music. It feels really, strangely homey. But sometimes a bit bittersweet. Like coming home, but no one else has come back yet.

Its a very melancholic piece that accompanies the very first part of the game where one of the protagonist spends his last days of his summer vacation with his friends with the setting being a town with a setting sun in the distance setting a very distint mood to it all.

This literally one of my favorite pieces to listen to in an instrumental playlist. This and Afternoon Streets, I like other pieces from KH2 but these two are easily top fav. The intro/prologue section of the game where things are easy goals, nice music and yet bittersweet/melancholy with context.❤

2:00 "You can envision, you know, dandelions blowing in the wind." Oh? *Dandelions*, you say? Well aint that just the perfect choice of words lol



Context: "Dandelions" is a very important part of the Kingdom Hearts lore. Won't give spoilers. If you know, you know.

Yoko Shimomura creates incredible music

I like all the normal things he's suggesting this might accompany, they all totally make sense, probably MORE sense than the real situation this music is for, which is the main character's sentient body is stuck in a digital limbo town while the main character sleeps in an onion…

This is my comfort song. I love being able to throw this on and go back to childhood and remember my experiences with this game. Please do look into this series more. Many more calming and soothing pieces then ones of horror and then you get gut punches you didn't know you'd feel

It's funny because I don't know the names of most of the songs from the Kingdom Hearts series besides the themes from Utada, but this was the one that came to mind when I saw the name. It would be great if you were able to see what's happening in the game when this song plays. I think the visuals and song play off each other well to set a mood
