Secret of Mana Music: Boss Fight

The fast and hard-hitting introduction is the strongest part of the song. This pulls you into the battle. The baseline is pretty heavy and I love strong base. Once again you cannot go wrong with boss music. Especially when it comes from Square. The boss fights were so easy in the Secret of Mana. All that you had to do was constantly cast magic against the boss’s elemental weakness. You do not even need to use weapons. Just stand back and let your magic do the talking. This made boss fights incredibly easy.

    “The boss fights were so easy in the Secret of Mana”

    I disagree. I remember there was a wall with eyes, and a wolf near the start of the game, that had me stumped for days - nay - weeks on end.

    Of course, taht was before you got the magic, so yeah once you got that, then you were plain sailing :)

    [..YouTube..] 1:15-1:35 is the winner.

    [..YouTube..] The song’s called “Danger”. Even if you could find it on VGMusic, it’d only be a crappy MIDI–this is the real thing (albeit low quality), so it’s much better.

    [..YouTube..] Hear this music —> You’re f***ed now

  29. 29 mirasame

    [..YouTube..] It really gets your blood pumping when you’re playing this game to hear those 20 seconds.

  30. 30 mrgrayf0x

    [..YouTube..] This song makes you think, “Oh shit!! The boss, how do we fight it?!?!”It’s so fastpaced and filled with quick decisiveness!

  31. 31 morelltechyahoocom

    [..YouTube..] hahaha…thats exactly the feeling i had as a kid playing this. lol

  32. 32 princedarienlover

    [..YouTube..] The middle of this song is kick ass but after the first few seconds it gets even better, I remember fighting bosses like the ant,spikey, and the plant guy in the under ground cave where you get the axe, and when I see the boss I’m all like *Stomps a mudhole in boss’s ass and walks it dry*Sit down!

  33. 33 speyeker

    [..YouTube..] This has always been a childhood favourite of mine. Over ten years ago I was scouring the internet trying to find even just a MIDI of it (because back then finding the real thing seemed out of the question). It’s no worse for wear after all these years–it’s still an absolutely outstanding song.

  34. 34 gothicjinnlax17

    [..YouTube..] Does anyone know the actually name of this song, and if there are any available remakes of it out on the web?

  35. 35 louman84

    [..YouTube..] in case no one has mentioned it yet, this clip only has the left or right channel of the song. I don’t remember the song sounding weird like this.

  36. 36 PigPillow

    [..YouTube..] I was more like…”AHSGHAHSGAAAAAAH!!! *PANIC PANIC PANIC*”Until that “heroic part” comes in, thats when you get to feel like a superhero :D

  37. 37 SwordmasterCrails

    [..YouTube..] jeah^^

  38. 38 Hawelo92

    [..YouTube..] Spam magic and stop whining! :D

  39. 39 mrallstar2

    [..YouTube..] “danger”

  40. 40 sandman1982

    [..YouTube..] i think this whole song is structured to flow with a boss battle. the start makes you nervous and scared and tries to get you to act quickly because its dangerous, it then becomes more awe inspiring as you work out what to do and unleash some of the attacks like the spells. Amazing I never though of it that way before…
