You can buy the soundtrack for this game at your local anime warehouse for much more than you'd think was a reasonable price. I was rather amazed that a friend of mine shelled out the bucks for it, but it occurred to me later that after playing the game for 30, 40, or 50+ hours, the songs (which are short, and loop constantly in the background, and are pretty damn good little ditties considering the SNES limitations) become powerful agents of nostalgia, and have much more personal meaning than the rest of the generic nonsense most of us listen to. Probably the only reason I didn't buy the soundtrack is that through the magic of AudioCatalyst, I was able to gank the songs from his discs in under 20 minutes.

All the songs were written by Nobuo Uematsu, and they're listed below for the benefit of those who can only find a version with Japanese scribbled all over it. I changed the names of some of the songs to match the names of characters and places in the American version of the game ("FF3"). In parentheses are explanations of where and when the songs with less descriptive titles are heard in the game.
