Aeris' Theme vs. Tifa's Theme

Which character theme did you like more?? which did you think was more memorable?? Personally i thought Aeris' theme was more powerful and emotional and remembaral (sp) than Tifas.

Since I really can't decide between Aeris's Theme and Tifa's Theme, I prefer "Water", because it blends both themes together and makes it sound pretty.

I definitely think Aeris' theme was more memorable. It is the one that has been permanently stuck in my head ever since I played VII. I guess it just evoked more an emotional response for me than Tifa's theme...

I'm with Garnet on this. When we found out the truth about Aerith, when Aerith was stabbed and she died her theme was playing. I just feel that this theme was more memorable really than any other theme in the entire game. I have more emotional attatchment to this song and is one of my favorites to play on the piano as well

I think you have to pick Aeris' theme. Just a well written piece in general, even outside the game.

Tifa's theme because it's more of Cloud and Tifa together...?

Tifa's theme is great on it's own though too. After all, it was used in themes like "Eyes on Me", "Anxious Heart" and of course, "Water". The theme on it's own might not be as popular as Aeris's, but it still is used in several other popular themes and deserves SOME praise.

I'm bad at identifying music but I never really heard their themes play together... maybe it's just a coincidence and they sound the same (I can definetely hear the Tifa part but maybe it's more of a similarity than anything and not neccessarily all-out intentional by Uematsu).

I guess I'm in the minority in saying that I like Tifa's theme better. For me, it also has to do with the fact that I prefer Tifa's character to Aeris's, so I guess that allows me to connect more with the music on an emotional level. That's very important to me with music.

To tell you the truth, I don't know, I acknowledge Aeris's theme as a beautiful peice of music, Nobuo Uematsu even said it was his favorite. But I just never felt it... it's the one song on the AC OST that I skip because it bores me. If we're speaking in musical terms, however, Aeris's theme seems harder to and more complicated to play on the piano. Still, I like Tifa's theme better. It has a... nostalgic and romantic feel to it which reminds me of the character I love and her childhood with a certain someone. =P

All in all Aeris's remains a huge fan favorite though. Oh well, Tifa's FTW!!!

I don't remember Tifa's theme, to be honest. So I voted for Aeris and I did so because of the Orchestral version which I have downloaded - magical.
