"'''End of the World'''" is a musical composition by Yoko Shimomura that appears in ''{{c|Kingdom Hearts|game}}''. It is the field theme of the [[End of the World]]. | |||
==Appearances== | |||
"End of the World" is the field theme of the End of the World in ''Kingdom Hearts''. | |||
===''Kingdom Hearts''=== | |||
*End of the World: "End of the World", "Remains of The Worlds", "Is This My Island?", "A Meaningless Effort", "Return to Darkness" | |||
==Composition== | |||
"End of the World" is approximately three minutes and fourteen seconds long in both ''Kingdom Hearts'' and the [[Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 ReMIX|HD remake]] of ''Kingdom Hearts Final Mix''. It has a time signature of 4/4 and a tempo of 78 beats per minute. | |||
For instrumentation, each version uses the same instruments, though for games not in the HD remakes, some voices are covered through electronic means- such as synthesizer. In general, the instrumentation includes: strings, orchestral bells, piano, harp, and chorus. | |||
"End of the World" contains references to "[[Dive into the Heart -Destati-]]" and "[[Dearly Beloved]]". Both of these tracks appeared at the beginning of the game, being repurposed here for a more sinister endgame track. For the "Destati" theme, this is heard in the vocal part and violin. Both treble and bass clef voices repeat the word "Destati" alongside choir-ahhs as one would hear in the original "Destati" theme. For "Dearly Beloved", the rhythm is slightly different – now faster and more choppy – and the orchestral bell part occasionally interrupts with this motif. The piece has a very subjective tone. There is a haunting beauty to the piece, yet an overlapping sadness, knowing and seeing a world frozen in the middle of destruction due to the [[Heartless]] invasion. Overall, the piece has a desolate feeling to it. | |||
