Talk: Dancing Mad (theme)

Full song?

Shouldn't there be a youtube link to just the song, not a fanvid or anything? All the other final battle music have one.

Vid

		Sure. Find one without all the video, or make one.

		i put in video with the dancing mad song in there but OTO took it out, saying it was a fan vid so was wondering if i find a none fan video i could put it on the article

		BlueHighwind Q? TALK - So if you care to find me, look to the Western Sky!ツ:
		Do you mean a video that was not made by a fan? In that case you mispelled "non", impressive. Also questions usually end in question marks. Like this: What are you talking about?

		is it possible to put windows media things on there ?

		BlueHighwind Q? TALK - So if you care to find me, look to the Western Sky!ツ:
		Use damn question marks! Is it so hard!? Look, I spent I a second hitting Shift + /, and seem what appeared? A question mark (it looks like this: "?"). Its basic grammar used to indicate an interoggitive statement. So what if it takes you more time to write, I want to understand what I read.

		Doesn't this song play in Final Fantasy VI: The Interactive CG Game, too? I haven't even played halfway through FFVI yet, so don't spaz out on me. :P

Time Out

How is it the fourth section? The page itself says the song has four movements, and that is clearly not the music played during Rest/Lady. Drake Clawfang

...it was you who said it was the fourth section, when it's clearly the third section playing. Anyway, I was talking about the third part of the song, not the third part of the battle. Maybe we should clarify that... Faethin^{verba volant}

But the song has four parts... Drake Clawfang

So?

Sorry, I fail to see your point. Faethin^{verba volant}

The song has four parts, that's part of the last one. Basic math, four parts to the battle, four parts to the song, that's the fourth part. Drake Clawfang

"Basic maths", huh...

Let us define the four parts them, by defining their time intervals.

"Basic maths"... that one stung. Faethin^{verba volant}

Four parts, four battles - one part for each tier. That's how I've always heard the song divided, and that's how it is divided. Drake Clawfang

Well, my statement is based on the different central melodies "Dancing Mad" shows during the battle, not the battle per se. I think, Bluer forgive me, that the BM's version of the theme makes the differences more audible. But hell, they're still present in the original version, I'm listening to it right now and I don't see how can you miss them:

• 4:29, Intro, with synth voices and stuff
• 7:35, Organ alone
• 11:32, Where the wild, jazz organ part begins
• 13:26, The final section

Faethin^{verba volant}

I hear four parts too.

• 0:01 - 2:44 - first part, slow, synthed voice, blah.
• 2:45 - 4:42 - faster, heavier part, more drums and symbol sounds.
• 4:43 - 6:32 or so - more upbeat, lighter part, more organ sounds.
• 6:33 - end - final movement.

Which part is not a part, and where is this reasoning coming from? I've never seen anyone else divide the segments like you have. I could see the final part being considered two parts instead of one, with the electric guitar, but that still means the music sample is Part 4. Drake Clawfang 18:18, 25 August 2008 (UTC)

Whoa, whoa, whoa....I see the problem in our line of thinking...which version of you listening to, and how long is it? My vers is roughly 11:00, then a minute of "bong" sounds. Drake Clawfang

Which is why I insist we refer to the in-game versions instead of the rearrangements for our songs. Bluer 18:25, 25 August 2008 (UTC)

I'm listening to the original version, taken from the OST, the one fourteen minutes long. Faethin^{verba volant}

Well if we use the in-game version, then it's still four sections, one for each segment of the battle. I don't understand how this is so hard to comprehend. Drake Clawfang

There is a difference between not understanding and not agreeing, bub. And repeatedly stating that there are four parts in the song is moot, since we all agree on that. The matter is, how are the four parts divided. Faethin^{verba volant}

The GBA song player divides this song nicely into four parts. That's where the four songs are divided. (And anyway, doesn't each part end when you reach the next Boss? That's where the sections end. This seems like a stupid issue.) --BlueHighwind 18:31, 25 August 2008 (UTC)

EDIT CONFLICT - Well in your line of reasoning Faethin, the song's flow is entirely independant of how the battle flows, which is not true. Each tier clearly has a seperate piece of the song repeating on it. If the four segments overlap from tier to tier, then dividing them is meaningless and it's just one long song that has random snippets used for the tiers. Drake Clawfang

Beh. I'll admit that I may be wrong then. But I still think it makes more sense to divide them as I have. Change it back if you want to. Faethin^{verba volant}

Unfortunately I've lost my GBA, so I can't verify BlueH's claim. I do recall though, if you check the bestiary, each monster from each tier has their section playing as the fight music. Drake Clawfang

Blue was right. The GBA Sound Player has "Dancing Mad 1", then 2, 3 and 4. Each of those sections is divided as they are divided in the battle itself - by tier. Drake Clawfang

Tsc Tsc, sorry for this but, i unlocked the sound player in Final Fantasy VI advance time ago, and there is "5" Dancing Mad. (Played the american version)

1: is Fist Tier

2: 2º tier

3: 3º tier

4: Omen ~ 4º tier intro

5: 4º tier boss (The kefka theme remix) CookiePinguy 01:16, 28 February 2009 (UTC)

/facepalm

Read what you just wrote. both files 4 and 5 are 4TH TIER. they're discussing the tiers here, not the MIDI files. the game divides the song into five parts, because Omen only plays during Kefka's reveal, while the 5th file is the looping part of the 4th tier. --Adonzo 03:01, 5 March 2009 (UTC)
