Still not feeling it for Songhai. Though I guess it's a tiny bit better than Germany's (I really dislike Germany's).

And finally, I get to vote for Arabia. The moment I played as them, I fell in love with the theme. Starts out slow, but soon becomes fast and really catchy. Took me a while to realize that I like it so much though, much like this vote. ;p

Morocco- 20-3=17 surprised no one has touched this theme yet. I thought people hated it. I personally love the vocal and instruments, but it is lacking something in some parts
Ottoman- 21
Persia- 22
Poland- 17
Polynesia- 21
Portugal- 21
Rome- 17
Russia- 20+1=21, an intimidating piece which works for Russia, I like the "galloping" noise, no doubt referencing Yekaterina's love of horses

India- 20+1 It's very modernized Indian music, but the key instruments are present. Plus it works for Gandhi as he was a modern Indian leader/
Indonesia- 23
Iroquois- 17
Japan- 22
Korea- 20-3=17 some Korean commentators on the youtube video said that this is not really Korean music, I agree. It sounds really similar to Chinese music at times. It also diverges from the original Arirang song, but not in a great way for me.

Rome- 18 (Not the best song for me (though not far behind Ethiopia), but I've got to mend it a bit. I love this tune, and how it captures the spirit and imperial glory of the eternal Rome. Listened to it on my iPod while in Rome earlier this year and it fit perfectly.)
Russia- 21

So even though this one sounds a little threatening for a peace theme, I think it does an excellent job of helping establish the personality that exists around Shaka.

England- 22 I will leave Byzantium and see whether it will actually be eliminated by one single person with "I don't like it" as the only argument. Meanwhile, I can't ignore how grand and majestic England's theme sounds.

Carthage (Hymn to Nikkal)- 21
Celts (Lass of Aughrim/Lord Gregory)- 21
China (Gao Shan Liu Shui)- 20+1=21 I think this was a good fit for Wu Zetian, it is based on a melody played mostly on a guzheng by women, a nice fusion of Chinese and Western instruments

Shoshone (Shoshone Sun Dance Songs)-21
Siam (Northern Thai Melody)- 20-3=17, an okay theme, but it was taken from a book on Southeast Asian music, so the composer never even heard the real melody, he just used the music notes and diverged a lot based on other Thai music he heard before, I rather he picked a melody most Thai people are familiar with, plus Rammy's theme is kinda short
Songhai (Gambian Folk Song)- 11

Babylon- 2 - Mm. I feel like Babylon is an empire in Nebby's imagination while he is locked in a room. I expect more from music of the civ named "Babylon". I actually quite surprised to see America go first. It's not good. But it's not THIS bad.

Gone Babylon
+1 Carthage, oldest melody nicely modified to blend with the starry Mediterranean sky. This has to be the best leaderscreen-music synergy.
Comment about England music, its great and I would have vote for it every time but I do no appreciate the composer quoting heavily from Jupitor with barely any variation. It feels like I will be voting for how great Jupitor is and not the English peace theme.

Question what don't you like about Byzantium's music give us more of a reason than "I just don't like it."

Use pm to ask personal questions. but, I'll give the answer of your question. I don't like byzantine music because I'm not a fan of their music. That's the reason why I gave (-) to byzantine.

Austria - Even though I find the civ kinda interesting, I've never actually gotten past the early game thanks to this theme. It just annoys the crap out of me with its fanciness. I will say that it suits Maria Theresa very well though.

England - On the opposite side this theme is what makes me pick England. Makes me swell with pride and I'm not even English, such an emotional piece.

China- 21
Dutch- 21
