"Not Alone" (独りじゃない, Hitori ja nai?, lit. You're Not Alone) is a musical theme from Final Fantasy IX. It was composed by Nobuo Uematsu. The track is named after the events taking place while it plays in its game of origin. The theme then became associated with the game's protagonist, Zidane Tribal, and a popular theme among fans, and was subsequently arranged and included in live performances.
