ANYWAY since curious_velvet did the favorite races things (WHICH I'M WORKING ON MY OWN RESPONSE TO I SWEAR) I thought I'd ask a slightly different question
( Read more... )
Since I can be pretty indecisive when it comes to picking out favorites for things, especially music, I think I'll choose my "favorites" based on which ones I listen to the most. Otherwise I'd be here all day finding things I like about each and every theme.
The Kzer-Za: When you first play the game, you know you're in trouble when you hear this theme start up. It's a rather short loop of music, but it still conveys the might and general feel of the Kzer-Za quite nicely.
The Ilwrath: I like this simply for the reason that I get a very clear picture in my head of a web being built when it plays. A very weird reason to like a song, I know.
Starbase Commander: I love the blend of alarm-like and technological noises with the steady, heavy beat that this one has going on.
Shipyard and Outfit Starship: The appeal of these to songs, for me, is the busy, industrial feel I get when listening to it. I really feel like things are being worked on, you know? I don't think I could get tired of these very easily.
The Spathi: I don't know how they did it, but they managed to somehow sum up the Spathi in a piece of music. I got the clearest vision of the little cowards just by hearing this song before I even talked to them. It's so bouncy and hyper and busy, eeeee!
The Pkunk: This theme has the uncanny power to make me smile and almost bust out into giggles for the entire duration of it. Every. Single. Time. It's so happy and carefree sounding that I just can't help myself.
The Zoq-Fot-Pik: It's a really simple theme, but its energetic feel is catchy!
The Slylandro Probe: It's entirely ridiculous, but I'm just so fascinated with a song consisting entirely of the words "We come in peace." having rhythm and being catchy. This clearly shows that I'm insane.
The Slylandro: So simple, cute, and innocent! :D There's an excitedness to it too that's a little contagious.
The VUX: I must confess that I didn't know what to make of this theme at first. It took me a while to get used to the bizarre rhythm that it had, but I've come to love it. For me, there's a feeling of fluid movement in this piece, and a subtle malice. It fits the VUX really well.
The Utwig: So depressing, but I like it anyway. There's something about the emptiness that draws me in. It's difficult to explain.
The Supox: If pressed, I might admit that this theme is one of the ones that is the closest thing that I have to an all-time favorite. I feel like dancing around like a nutjob every time I hear it.
The Yehat: I've said it before; this theme feels very epic, like it has a lot of history to it. Similar to old Gaelic, Scottish, and Celtic songs that tell a story...you just don't know the words. I love this theme so much.
The Thraddash: Oh, Thraddash! <3 It probably has the best beat of any SC2 song, and I often envision a seedy, smoky, rough and tough bar when I listen to it.
The Mycon: This song takes a while to get going, but my goodness I love it so. It's industrious, but in a much more organic and ancient way than the Shipyard and Outfit Starship themes.
The Syreen: This one has an exotic and teasing vibe to it. It's also another piece of music that makes me dance in my seat when I hear it.
The Kzer-Za: When you first play the game, you know you're in trouble when you hear this theme start up. It's a rather short loop of music, but it still conveys the might and general feel of the Kzer-Za quite nicely.

I love the Probe's theme just for being able to do that with one clip. I love stuff like that. :D
