Wind Waker Theme [FULL] 

Admit it. Your problems went away for a while there.

You don't just play Zelda, you live the adventure.

This is my alarm for school in the morning so that everyday feels like an adventure.

Challenge: Listen to this entire song without cracking a smile once.

Does anyone else get a weird feeling in their chest as they listen to the song?

It just progressively gets better and better as it goes on. Oh my god it's magic I don't understand it

This song makes me emotional. My adopted sister and me never got along, she dove head first into drugs and acted like I didn't exist most of the time even though we lived together for years, but this game brought us together and gave us about a year of amazing memories when we played this game through 100% and completed everything. She suffered through depression for years, shes no longer with us now and this game is one of the only happy memories I have with her. I will always cherish it

Am I the only one who thinks this is the best Zelda game?

To this day, i still believe that's the best Zelda/Nintendo soundtrack ever made, maybe the best video game music of all time for me

All of us have such an emotional connection to this game. It's the Wind Waker Generation. Just a tiny generation of us little nerds who grew up with such an amazing game, we get chills just because of the soundtrack.

And to think people said Wind Waker sucked when it first came out

I read someone played this song for their bride when she walked down the aisle. lol I don't gush at weddings but I thought that was really cute for a gamer wedding.

The ending sounds so sad, like you're saying goodbye to someone you love forever....but maybe also meeting a new future at the same time!

I hate the part where it ends

The music in this game is BEYOND amazing. There is a reason why this is my favorite Zelda game. Outstanding music, cute graphics, epic story, and awesome gameplay. I could listen to this song forever.

It sounds very Irish.

Had to break a tear. This song just brings back so many memories. One of my most favorite video games of all time!

this music just makes me fucking happy man

I'm 24 and totally missed the zelda bandwagon growing up. I bought the HD version a week ago, and it's my first zelda game. I'm abso-fuckin-lutely hooked and I'm gonna buy more.

this game caught so much hate when it came out because the cel shading approach lacked the "realism" that gamers wanted..Ironically that is one of the reasons it has aged so well. Flawless gameplay, great story, great score = my favorite Zelda game ever.

Every time I hear this song, I cry. I can't even play it on my flute because when I get going really well- well; I start crying. I remember sitting at home playing games and always ignoring my parents fighting in the background. It helped, so much. I get flashbacks to when I could sit and just enjoy life, whether it was watching my cousin play games, or what. I remember when this first came out, we scrounged up all the money we had just to get it, and we didn't regret ANY of it. I love this game so much it hurts sometimes. When the HD remake came out- oh man, I was ecstatic. The boss battles were always great, as with every Zelda game.

Windwaker has the best music of any Zelda game hands down.

k just saw a ad for a Horror Movie. Killed the entire mood.

who wants to sail the Great Sea with me?

R.I.P Satoru Iwata =)

If I die I want this song for my funeral with a slideshow of pictures. I don't have the gamecube version but I have the wiiu. Truly this game is a masterpiece, but overlooked by the cartoony graphics. May this game be forever remembered....

Playing this on WiiU brings back a lot of good memories as well as a new fresh tidal wave of joy for my old-gamer heart.

It's things like this that make me regret letting my gamecube copy get scratched. I'm so happy it was re released.

This reminds me of a simpler time. A time when Zelda was still fun to me. A time when i still had all my childhood friends. A time when I didn't have to worry about the stress of the real world. Whenever i hear this song, i'm 17 again, and in high school, with my first real girlfriend, and all my friends, laughing and talking about everything and nothing at the same time- and i become overwhelmed with grief, that those days will never come back. This song encompasses the happiest time of my life.

What i thought when i played spirit tracks for the first time? "R.I.P Hero of Wind, and thank you for everything"

I love the Wind Waker theme! It just screams "adventure!"

I have this melody as my alarm set off, never get tired of it and always I wake up with a good mood. It's just so beautiful.

My first Zelda game will always have a special place in my heart

I need this song in a music box I would cherish it forever- ;~;

I listen to this song whenever I'm very sad or angry, and it always succeeds at putting a smile on my face. I, tragically, never played this game, not even a demo version. I couldn't emulate it because the game ran at like 4 fps and never got past the opening scene because of that. It saddens me a whole lot because I have watched many lets plays (Chuggaaconroy anyone?), know the story and gameplay but have never experienced the game. I don't own a Gamecube, wii u, and will probably never play it until i get my hands on a copy for the gamecube so I could play it on my my wii (without saving because I don't have a memory card ;-;), or Wind Waker HD AND a Wii U. This by far is the game I want to play the most out of all the games I want to play and I almost feel like crying due to the fact I won't be able to experience this game anytime soon.

I love this so much. Every time I listen to it I cry a bit.

This game is my childhood, it warms my heart to hear this themes and know there is still good music out here in this big wide world

I’ve never actually played this game before but idk if it’s just the old vibes or something about this song I just get a really calm comfortable feeling listening to this

I got my first GameCube game ever back in the early 2000s when I was eleven, and it was this very one. I still have that very same disc and GameCube and I'm 25 now. This song always reminds me that there is an end to every storm in life, and that the sun will return and dry your tears once again. This game helped me through many violent storms, and I associate it with victory over the cruelty of this world.

As a Scottish person the fact they had Celtic influences and literally called a character MAKAR which is what our national poet is called makes me very very proud to be Scottish and we love the Japanese people 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 ❤️🇯🇵

The one thing that torns me about is that its extremely difficult to rank Zelda OSTs However, Wind Waker is my first Zelda game and I treasure this thought deeply. The theme is without a doubt the best ost of the series

Wind Waker was my first Zelda game, and it will always have a place in my heart for opening me to a new series and leading me to some of the best video games I have ever played. I don't care what people say about this game's art style. It's fine. It's a great game, albeit slightly unfinished, though that isn't a problem at all. Wind Waker is full of memorable characters and a deep storyline (for Zelda), with some happy moments and some sad ones. It's a beautiful game that I will always hold close to me. I grew up with Nintendo, particularily the Mario and Zelda series, and because of that I still play those games more than any other to this day. I just want to thank everyone at Nintendo for making great games for us all to enjoy. You guys are the best!

I know that this comment will get buried, but by listening to this song penetrated deep into my heart, unlocking old memories. My dad, me, and my brother all would sit down to play this game back on the GameCube. We would spend hours playing the game, and listening brought up those memories and I broke down. For anyone reading this, I hope that you spend your time wisely, call your parents, and tell them you love them. Time moves fast, and it doesn't slow down for any of us.

Even though I was born a year before this game came out, it brings up fond memories of when I thought nothing of parents separated. This game, PMTTYD, and Double Dash have held me up through days of depression... Rest in peace, you masterpiece...

This song gives me nostalgia. I absolutely love this game and it is easily my favorite ever.

This game means so much to me. It’s not only my favorite Zelda, but it’s my favorite game of all time. Every time I hear this song it puts me in tears of joy. This game is the first game that I can remember and it started my love for video games. If it weren’t for my older siblings showing me this game my love for Zelda wouldn’t be as big as it is today. No matter how many times I play the game ether on GameCube or Wii U it will always put a smile on my face no matter what. I will always come back to this game, even if it will be my last video game.

It's hard to believe that 11 months ago I was contemplating ending my life, this video helped me realize that life is a gift and I know that now....thank you, and may the wind always be at your back and fill your sails...

This song just makes me feel so safe. I grew up watching my dad play loads of Zelda games and now listening to the songs comforts me so much.

I've never played this (or beaten any Zelda for that matter, don't know where to start) but this theme.....wow. Absolutely spectacular music here

My favorite video game of all time

I cant say more other than wow. This game brings me so much memories of the past. Back were there wasn't any bad things happing. Where people were all friends. Ah. Those were the good times. Huh... I just can't express how i feel. Unless you count breathtaking a type of expression. Yeah this game is my favorite ever within in every game. Thanks Nintendo for making such wonderful games!

i have probably already left a comment on this video back when i first started playing Zelda, but idk ill leave another comment. Idk why but i always find myself coming back to this game, I've beat it multiple times.. its the Zelda game that ive played the most. It was my second game and the first I beat... I dont know why but for some reason when i play this game ... it feels like all my worries dont matter anymore.. im diagnosed with severe anxiety , and this game has helped me so much with everything... The zelda series as a whole means so much to me. I started with phantom hourglass, and that game may not be the best. But it was still good enough for me to want to come back and keep playing more games. Ive now collected nearly all of the games. This game alone is why i wanted to play more games, i found myself playing not very well-known nintendo titles such as Kid Icarus (i now have all 3 kid icarus games!!).. it also made me want to play earthbound/mother I know u probably cringed rlly hard bc it was kinda cringe.. but i just really wanna say thay this game means a lot to me haha :')

As a still 12 year old, I found this game 2 years ago when I was buying games for my newfound Wii U. I had never even heard of the Zelda series before, and I wasn't very eager to try it out. Then, one day, after having played every other game on here, I have it a try. I absolutely fell in love with it. I loved the feeling of adventure, I loved the new worlds, I soaked up every bit of it. I spent hours on this. I loved finding myself frustrated and not knowing how to pass a certain area, and what was even better was when I finally did pass it. It felt like I was invincible. I remember finishing this game and feeling totally dumbfounded, and my mind was blown to bits at how incredible it was. I loved it to pieces. Upon finishing it, I didn't really know what to do anymore. I was still shocked at what I had just played, I didn't know what to do with myself. Then came the time I got my tablet. I immediately took to finding stores about other's experiences with this game, and

God, this game is so majestic… I remember playing this game for the first time when I was 6 years old, in the main menu, you can only hear the first, simple and "happy" part of the song, but when you've played through the whole and epic story, you get to listen to the whole song. It really makes you look back to everything you've done in the game so far, and how you will never forget it. Myself, I've never forgotten how it felt to play this game to this day.

I remember when my brother and I used to sneak back home from family gatherings in the summer when I was little. We would go upstairs after walking home, and start playing either the Wii or the Nintendo 64. He would show me all of these amazing games he grew up with or enjoyed playing. I then grew up loving these games as well. I wish he was still here playing these games with me so I wouldn’t have to be lonely and cry during summer vacation about not having any friends anymore.

This song is truly magical. Such a good Zelda game. I remember beating it for the first time when I was younger, and how happy that made me feel. This game is pure gold.

I know there’s probably a version of this full song with better audio quality. But I listened to this one since seventh grade, it would be wrong to abandon it. (:

man, this is a great theme to have stuck in your head

One of the best openings for one of the best games

This is probably the single greatest Zelda theme out there. It is so adventurous and catchy, It just gives off such good vibes. The nostalgia hits me like a freight train!

One of the best things in WW is that its full of life

had to watch a minute long ad with no skips, but it was soo worth it ;_;

WOO WOO FOR THOSE WHO HAVE THE HD WII U BUNDLE! BEAUTIFUL BLACK GAMEPAD ENCRUSTED WITH THE HOLY SYMBOLS OF BELOVED HYRULE!

This is the good stuff it makes the chemicals in my brain go funny and I like it

I miss this game so much, a year of life was sucked out because of it, but I enjoyed it more than you could imagine!

I first got to know this game through Chuggaaconroy's LPs when I was in high school. I was blown away by the story and decided to buy the game and played it with my friends which I still clearly remember today. Not only was the story amazing, but the art style and the music was also exceptional. Thank you Loz WW, thank you Chugga for providing me an unforgettable piece of my childhood.

Whoever made this song is an amazing person, I love this song more than almost any other song with words. Whoever made Zelda god bless you for making such an amazing game that makes everyone get to go an the most amazing adventure. It makes me feel like I'm 100% free and everyone always has a good attitude in the game, its literally magical. God bless anyone who came here to listen to one of/the best song in Zelda. This song always makes me emotional. Every Zelda game that I have played (Majora's mask, Ocarina of time, Twilight princess, Wind waker, Breath of the wild). Have all been outstanding the stories that they play is so amazing I always love all Zelda games.

Wind Waker is my absolute favorite game. I've played many great games like Mario Galaxy, Xenoblade, Fire Emblem, and many other amazing games, but none has topped my experience with this game. This song reminds me of that. I always feel happy when I listen to this and I even sometimes feel like crying but tears of joy. I want to return to experience this new again but I can't but this song lets me feel it again and it's wonderful. Thanks Nintendo for this masterpiece.

I love actually seeing peace in the comment section of a video. And a great video, nonetheless.

Zelda will always have the best music, and Windwaker has the best of it all. I love what they did with this theme. It makes you feel like going on an adventure at the start, but at the very end, it's like a somber and happy ending to a long journey.

this game is so special to me. feels great every time I listen to the soundtrack. brings me back to when I first played it

Just gotta say, the music in this game is amazing, still get chills. I love this game to bits. My favorite Zelda game, I had no idea what I was expecting when I bought this game, but it was so worth it, best HD remake ever, and one of the best games of all time in my opinion!

The music brings a tear to my eye. Happy memories. :)

OH MAN THIS BRINGS BACK MEMORIES!!

I absolutely loved this game, i gave me nostalgia

Good feels, man, good feels.

This always makes me happy since it's so catchy, but it'll always be tinged with sadness for me, remembering the king, and Hyrule being washed away, Link leaving his grandma and sister. So many feelings, but that's why I love this game!

This actually made me cry, my childhood

This tune just relaxes me so much

allow me to tell you the tale about how, roughly a decade ago, now, i attended a computer camp alongside other 12-year-olds dedicated to programming, animation, and gaming. my daily courses consisted of coding basic Python, animating and modeling in Maya (Lord knows i'll never be able to use that again with its price tag), going swimming, and playing Minecraft for the remainder of the day. i had an absolute blast, and it being a college campus, that also meant that it gave me some... come to think of it, very well-needed insight into whatever college life was available to observe. but, for the most part, i have fond memories of tagging around with a few good friends i had made and have long-since fallen out of contact with -- this being long before the days of Discord being made and Snapchat being as big as it was among that age demographic -- singing Epic Rap Battles of History while coding simple, standard "Hello World" for loops in Python, building a beacon in Minecraft, or learning to make a golden barrel in Maya. specifically, i have one very vivid memory of the four of us all crowded around my computer before class looking up music, and realizing putting this very song, from this very video, on 1.75x speed made it sound almost Irish. i remember us all giggling and gawking at this realization, talking about GameCube games, as they were, before being told to sit down and begin step three of the class' attempts at making a very basic RPG in Python 2.7. and i remember having my earbuds in the computer, humming along to the Wind Waker soundtrack while i "fought" my hand-created virtual slimes... text-based, of course. that was a decade ago now. while i may still be young in comparison to some of the others who are in this comment section, it truthfully is shocking to me that i'm where i stand right now, with a potential job opportunity in devops, making my own legitimate side projects in coding, figuring out how this Blender thing works, and, of course, making beacons in Minecraft. sometimes, you just don't really change from how you were. and yknow what? that's okay.

I am impressed as a simple song can cheer you up and feel great about yourself. a like for the most nostalgic song in the world :)

This reminds me of why life is worth living. You struggle so hard to keep afloat, but when you find true beauty it is all worth it.

This is making me cry so much right now. I miss playing this with my dad as a child.

1 year ago today my Gamecube decided to die whilst I was playing this game. R.I.P GC

This song fills me with so much energy, if I listen to it in class during a test, I always do amazing. I am just mesmerized every time I hear this. This was the first Zelda game I ever played, and I returned to it early last year, the minute that I heard the title theme, I knew this was the series for me, since when I started playing wind waker again, I have played and beaten almost all of the games except Twilight Princess, and Skyward Sword. I will never forget the magic that this song delivers, and it will always have a special place in my heart.

Ahhh... Game Cube memories coming back to me.... so.... soothing

Just hearing everyone's stories about this game is just amazing and it makes me cry just hearing the song and the stories. TwT

This game taught me how to let go of my anxieties and allow the wind to guide me.

Welp, I'm engaged now, and we plan on marrying in two years time. I am going to confirm that instead of the boring old wedding march, I am FOR SURE walking down the aisle to this song. So gorgeous and upbeat! A great sound of happiness and waiting adventures and nostalgia and sentiment. Definitely my favorite Zelda song. :) I also kind of want to have everybody who walks down the aisle do a cute little partner dance thing halfway through, just to fill time and add to the excitement! I want it to be amazing and different.

When I was a kid, I used to wake up on the weekends around 2 or 3 am to my mom playing either Ocarina of Time or Wind Waker. Some of the best days of my whole life, for real. I hope we get to choose and relive our memories in our future lives. I want to relive it over and over.

In the name of myself as a zelda fan , thank you 2 much !

This game was so damn amazing waaay ahead of its time complete with the soundtrack of AGES !!!!! ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL GAME !

I'm turning 18 in 3 hours This music brings back so many memories I honestly just want to go back and play it again for a first time

This just makes me cry I miss my other memories ;c

I used to play this game a whole lot, but I was a stupid nine-year old and couldn't get past the Fortress :( I never finished it, because it was on the GameCube at my father's trailer and I stopped visitation there when I was 10. I never took it with me, and he's either sold it, or if he hasn't, the console must be so riddled with mold from the place that it's unplayable. My GameBoy with Pokemon and Kirby Nightmare in Dreamland, too. God dammit. Now I feel like I can't watch playthroughs of any of those because I'll be spoiling them for myself.

When nostalgia hits you so hard that you feel like you're actually going to cry

I'm still getting goosebumps everytime I listen to it.

This song makes me think that one day all my favorite games will soon be forgotten in time and one day i will forget them

Man, probably gonna get a little bit of hate for this, but this is probably my favorite Zelda game. This theme brings back so much, I got to play it on the Wii U and I still LOVED it. :D
