All of the music in this game has been amazing and I could probably listen to this soundtrack for a long while but my absolute favorite is Life Will Change, not just because the song is amazing, but also changed the mood of the Palace you're in.
Beforehand, fighting any enemies in the dungeon switched music to battle music and back to palace music so it felt segmented and separate in a way that each fight was an experience through. The fights are tough and take a while as you're progressing through the Palace. Sometimes you'll come across an enemy who you have no info on with regards to weaknesses and you fumble your way through the Palace trying to solve weird room puzzles. At this point, you're drip fed bits of the Shadow and it makes me want to go send that calling card as soon as possible so I can take them down.
And then it happens, you send the calling card, you see the meter go to 99% and the tension rise but you know where you're going and what you're doing. You get in to the dungeon and Life Will Change starts blasting. You've got a plan, you've got a route, so you start making your way through. This time though, you're leveled. You've seen all the enemies. The music doesn't change back to battle music but remains the same and it hypes you up. These monsters don't deserve to be segmented anymore, you literally plow your way through, you make short work of them because you already know all the enemies and their weaknesses and you're here for one thing, to steal that treasure.
It was such a great way to feel like you've mastered the Palace and get you hyped up for the last encounter.
