  • Can you identify whether each song is Kingdom Hearts music or a storm alert theme on The Weather Channel? There should be no reason for these two categories to have any overlap, yet here we are. I encourage you to share this with non-KH fans to see how well they do - people I've shown it to have had about a 60% success rate.

    It's looking like #11, #15, and #20 have been the toughest of the bunch. If you want to hear more music that is uncannily similar to KH songs, check out this comparison: czcams.com/video/nEjIKNUYSA0/video.html

    • @jijonbreaker
      @jijonbreaker Před měsícem +52

      I could immediately tell #20 was the Vanitas dive to the heart fight theme. People just not playing BBS apparently.
      As for #11, it's so tricky because of that piano. That same piano sample is specifically used in KH, and like. Specifically KH.

      11 was weather channel cuz it has a electronic haziness.

      For me it was 2, 15, and 17. Those mobile game ones are so unfair. Who tf knows music from UX and Coded. If you had more variety from all the titles (most were from KH2), and none from the games that aren’t in the collections (even though I've beaten them all), I would’ve known if I didn't recognized it

  • @CanisMythson
    @CanisMythson Před měsícem +220

    I came into this with limited knowledge of both, and got about 70% right. It was more music theory then anything else; with a few exceptions, the Kingdom Hearts songs were constructed with many different instruments forming different melodies in unison, sometimes creating dissonance with each other in the more combat oriented themes. The Weather Channel, meanwhile, had more basic pieces with bombastic repeating melodies meant to catch your attention. There was only a few that didn't follow that simple formula.

    • @Kitsunekone
      @Kitsunekone Před měsícem +21

      That's how I saw it, yeah. The Weather Channel used generic bombatic pieces and Kingdom Hearts was meant to involve more instrumentation and weave a melody together. Some I already knew, but the ones I didn't, I tried to apply that same logical process to them.

    • @Hexagonaldonut
      @Hexagonaldonut Před měsícem +15

      In my case it was mostly a vibe check (minus the two appearances of that one from 2006 that I caught immediately), particularly catching some because they either sounded *too* dark and ominous or too peppy to make sense for Weather Channel, but there was also one where I listened to it and was quickly "this sounds too much like an actual orchestra, there's no way it's Weather Channel" and was spot-on.

    Man, this was really fun to do. Thanks for compiling this.
    I got three wrong myself, the Rinzler theme, the dream drop distance drop theme, and the Union cross theme. It was challenging but very satisfying. I found that not trying to remember every song in the series, rather remembering what instruments they usually use helped a lot. So when you hear a song using an instrument they never really use, it was probably a weather channel song. The most obvious were the coded one, cause it clearly was a DS midi or something similar sounding, and the weather channel song with bad quality, since KH has clear music everywhere.

    The number one key difference is percussion and instrument choice.

    @vincentadamsvga Před měsícem +16

    Adding what I think prior to each answer.
    Opening - Og and Unchained χ's Dearly Beloved. One of my favorites. Then again every Dearly Beloved is the best.
    Song 1 - Weather Channel
    Song 2 - A Nameless Planet, field theme for the Cy-Bug Sector in Union χ. I looked into so much about the χ saga for the first time recently, so it's still generally fresh on my mind and my obsession over KH, especially its OST has led me to becoming quite familiar with most of it.
    Song 3 - Floating in Bliss, for the Atlantica and Port Royal gummi ship routes in KHII. The least intense of the route music, pretty nice and fitting for the aquatic settings of the worlds they lead to.
    Song 4 - Weather Channel
    Song 5 - A Fight to the Death for the first Armored Xemnas fight in KHII and later the first part of the Saïx fight in KHIII. Surely this one would be easy, it's the start of such an amazing final boss.
    Song 6 - Weather Channel
    Song 7 - Cloudchasers, for the Olympus Coliseum and Pride Lands gummi ship routes in KHII. Strange that these are the only separate routes to share a theme unlike all the others who share themes with each other who are side by side on the world map.
    Song 8 - Darkness of the Unknown, specifically the first segment for the gummi ship-esque wyvern phase in KHII. Even more specifically, this is the PS2 version. I love this track a lot.
    Song 9 - Weather Channel, more specifically my introduction to it and its oddly high quality and KH-esque selection of tunes. It's the Storm Alert for 2006.
    Song 10 - Asteroid Attack, for the Land of Dragons and Beast's Castle gummi ship routes in KHII.
    Song 11 - Weather Channel , Storm Alert again.
    Song 12 - Weather Channel
    Song 13 - Deep Drop, battle theme for The World That Never Was in DDD. A fitting choice for the 13th song in this video.
    Song 14 - Weather Channel
    Song 15 - Rinzler Recompiled, for his boss encounter at the end of Sora's version of The Grid in DDD.
    Song 16 - Hazardous Highway, for the Agrabah and Halloween Town gummi ship routes. It seems that someone likes the KHII gummi ship route music. I do to, definitely my favorite of the three games' selection.
    Song 17 - On the Debug!! from coded. Also specifically the og mobile version that was used as a special theme during battle when using debug attacks., which I would not have expected as the version used, but pretty neat to see. It's also coded acknowledgement in general and that's awesome enough on its own. I don't care how filler it is, coded is awesome as a GAME, because this is a GAME series that has more elements to it than just the story. It doesn't matter how filler the story is if the GAME part of the GAME is awesome.
    Song 18 - Weather Channel
    Song 19 - Weather Channel
    Song 20 - Unbreakable Chains, for the final encounter with Vanitus in Ventus' story. It might generally just be a slower tempo version of Enter the Darkness, but I do quite enjoy the other adjustments in the track, especially the Sora part. Another fitting number for a song as well. 13 of darkness, 7 of light, a total of 20 pieces to forge the χ-blade.
    Song 21 - Weather Channel
    Ending - Failing a mission in χ.
    My Kingdom Hearts-ing is too much for these quiz videos to be difficult most of the time, a problem shared with other quizzes like this for other media I like. It's unfortunate, but a negative I must deal with as a person who delves far too deep into the media I enjoy.

      When I was making the quiz, I thought to myself, what Kingdom Hearts music sounds the most like it could be the opening to a weather segment on prime time TV? It turns out KH2 Gummi Ship music was the answer - I guess space and storms can have similar vibes, and the KH1 and KH3 themes were too "sparkly" to feel like severe weather alert music.
      Most of the time, I used the PS2 versions to blend in with the lower-quality Weather Channel instrument samples, which is also why I went for the original coded version of "On the Debug!!" (that, and I have a soft spot for original coded's OST)
      I was going to include a Weather Channel song called "Eye of the Storm", which would have been a fun parallel with the KH3 boss track of the same name, but sadly CZcams's copyright system kept picking it up
