Scythia (Traditional Melody) - 19
Spain (Recuerdos de la Alhambra) - 22
Zulu (Uthe Ubhuti Asizomlanda, Bayisa, Halala, Shaka Mamba) - 26 (25+1... I still think the Zulu theme and the ambient songs are best in the game. Just watched a clip of Trevor Noah singing a Xhosa song, and it was so beautiful. Love the vocals and language)

China (Jasmine Flower) - 15

[Kimiimaro]

America (Hard Times Come Again No More) - 16
Arabia (Üsküdara) - 22
China (Jasmine Flower) - 15
Cree (The Drums of Poundmaker) - 26
Egypt (El Helwa Di) - 12
France (Tourdion: Quand je bois du vin clairet) - 10-3=7 - The first two versions are great, but the industrial and atomic versions are really forgettable and hardly noticable.
Georgia (Shen Khar Venakhi; Tsaiqvanes Tamar Kali) - 14+1=15 - I'd like to upvote something else, but this just can't fall so soon.
India (Vaishnav Jana to tene) - 18
Indonesia (Rejang Dewa; Bapang Selisir) - 20
Japan (Itsuki Lullaby) - 18
Khmer (Khmer Rourm Sam Mawgee) - 23 - To all people mourning over Brejeiro... It's not that I hate faster and jolly themes. I love Khmer themes, but unlike Brazil, Khmer themes sound like a great civilization, whereas Brazilian themes sound like carnival
Korea (Arirang) - 13
Macedon (Tino Mori) - 8
Mongolia (Pastoral Song; Urtin Duu) - 27

[HoorayForSiam]

America (Hard Times Come Again No More) - 17 (16+1) Manages to change distinctly with each era while still being recognizable. Perfect choice to represent America.
Arabia (Üsküdara) - 22
China (Jasmine Flower) - 15
Cree (The Drums of Poundmaker) - 26
Egypt (El Helwa Di) - 12
France (Tourdion: Quand je bois du vin clairet) - 7
Georgia (Shen Khar Venakhi; Tsaiqvanes Tamar Kali) - 15
India (Vaishnav Jana to tene) - 18
Indonesia (Rejang Dewa; Bapang Selisir) - 20
Japan (Itsuki Lullaby) - 18
Khmer (Khmer Rourm Sam Mawgee) - 23
Korea (Arirang) - 13
Macedon (Tino Mori) - 5 (8-3) Besides Macedon not making sense as a different civilization, the theme doesn’t make sense either for an ancient Hellenistic culture.
Mongolia (Pastoral Song; Urtin Duu) - 27
Norway (Gjendine's Lullaby) - 15
Nubia (Allah Musau) - 21
Persia (Kereshme + Reng-e Shalakhu) - 20

[Morningcalm]

America (Hard Times Come Again No More) - 17
Arabia (Üsküdara) - 22
China (Jasmine Flower) - 15 A rather dull theme that somehow survived.
Cree (The Drums of Poundmaker) - 26
Egypt (El Helwa Di) - 12 - 3 = 9 (One of the most dull tracks in the soundtrack, and doesn't fit ancient Egypt at all.)
France (Tourdion: Quand je bois du vin clairet) - 7
Georgia (Shen Khar Venakhi; Tsaiqvanes Tamar Kali) - 15
India (Vaishnav Jana to tene) - 18
Indonesia (Rejang Dewa; Bapang Selisir) - 20
Japan (Itsuki Lullaby) - 18
Khmer (Khmer Rourm Sam Mawgee) - 23 How is this one so high? It's a repetitive and gratingly simple track aka Kongo's. Heck, it even has a higher score than than America's, Japan's or Indonesia's themes?!
Korea (Arirang) - 13
Macedon (Tino Mori) - 5
Mongolia (Pastoral Song; Urtin Duu) - 27
Norway (Gjendine's Lullaby) - 15 A shockingly cacophonous theme with over-the-top fascist overtones in its Atomic version.
Nubia (Allah Musau) - 21
Persia (Kereshme + Reng-e Shalakhu) - 20
Poland (Hej ide w las) - 14
Rome (Magna Mater) - 11 + 1 = 12 (Too many people are ignoring the glories of this theme, and the trumpets of the Atomic era. Also, unlike many other songs on this list, this is as close to historically accurate as they come for ancient civilizations, being based on a reconstructed melody and militarized with gusto rather than overwhelming Norwegian gloom.
Russia (Kalinka) - 16
Scotland (Scotland the Brave; Bonnie Dundee) - 14
Scythia (Traditional Melody) - 19
Spain (Recuerdos de la Alhambra) - 22
Zulu (Uthe Ubhuti Asizomlanda, Bayisa, Halala, Shaka Mamba) - 26

 

[knighterrant81]

America (Hard Times Come Again No More) - 17
Arabia (Üsküdara) - 22
China (Jasmine Flower) - 15
Cree (The Drums of Poundmaker) - 26
Egypt (El Helwa Di) - 9
France (Tourdion: Quand je bois du vin clairet) - 7
Georgia (Shen Khar Venakhi; Tsaiqvanes Tamar Kali) - 16 (15+1) - Some amazing vocals in the ancient era.
India (Vaishnav Jana to tene) - 18
Indonesia (Rejang Dewa; Bapang Selisir) - 20
Japan (Itsuki Lullaby) - 18
Khmer (Khmer Rourm Sam Mawgee) - 23
Korea (Arirang) - 13
Macedon (Tino Mori) - 5
Mongolia (Pastoral Song; Urtin Duu) - 27
Norway (Gjendine's Lullaby) - 15
Nubia (Allah Musau) - 21
Persia (Kereshme + Reng-e Shalakhu) - 20
Poland (Hej ide w las) - 14
Rome (Magna Mater) - 12
Russia (Kalinka) - 16
Scotland (Scotland the Brave; Bonnie Dundee) - 14
Scythia (Traditional Melody) - 19
Spain (Recuerdos de la Alhambra) - 22
Zulu (Uthe Ubhuti Asizomlanda, Bayisa, Halala, Shaka Mamba) - 23 (26-3) The Auto-tune in the later eras really ruins what up to that point was a really great theme.

Response to Rusty K - On Kalinka, and the entire music scheme for Civ 6 in general.

I think there's an argument to be made for the Kalinka theme, especially if you compare, say, the Industrial Era to Tchaikovsky Symphony 4, Movement 4, which also uses a folk tune as its thematic material. There's several things going on here. 1) This is an elimination thread, so you have to downvote something. All of the music in this game, as with most Civ games, is really good. 2) Its late at night, and after 3-5 hours of listening to Kalinka and having the words stuck in my head, I tend to get tired of it, and perhaps write flippant responses. 3) While I think in general, the composer for this game music did an excellent job, I think I'm a bigger fan of using completely new music each era, rather than having embellished versions of the same tunes in later eras. Its a cool idea to base your compositions on, and it definitely allows more branching out and hearing the music of many different cultures, rather than a few. However, as I mentioned in #2, after hearing the same theme for 3-5 hours of gameplay, with a few embellishments, they tend to get old. 4) For many (though not all) of the themes, the earlier eras seem to be more traditional, whereas the later eras all start to sound rather the same - kind of like a movie score. Again, this could just be my preference for not hearing basically the same music for 3-5 hours speaking.

America (Hard Times Come Again No More) - 17
Arabia (Üsküdara) - 22
China (Jasmine Flower) - 15
Cree (The Drums of Poundmaker) - 26
Egypt (El Helwa Di) - 9
France (Tourdion: Quand je bois du vin clairet) - 7
Georgia (Shen Khar Venakhi; Tsaiqvanes Tamar Kali) - 17 (16 + 1) -- Those downvoting such a masterpiece must let any barbarian in at their gates. They lack the Georgian spirit.
India (Vaishnav Jana to tene) - 18
Indonesia (Rejang Dewa; Bapang Selisir) - 20
Japan (Itsuki Lullaby) - 18
Khmer (Khmer Rourm Sam Mawgee) - 23
Korea (Arirang) - 10 (13 - 3) -- Despite great Ancient and Medieval versions, the Industrial and especially Atomic arrangements are highly grating.
Macedon (Tino Mori) - 5
Mongolia (Pastoral Song; Urtin Duu) - 27
Norway (Gjendine's Lullaby) - 15
Nubia (Allah Musau) - 21
Persia (Kereshme + Reng-e Shalakhu) - 20

[Guandao]

America (Hard Times Come Again No More) - 17
Arabia (Üsküdara) - 22
China (Jasmine Flower) - 15
Cree (The Drums of Poundmaker) - 26
Egypt (El Helwa Di) - 9 I'm just wondering what kind of music fits ancient Egypt, since no melodies from that period survived, should we go for stereotypical sounding music popularized by American movies? At least this music was composed by an Egyptian composer.
France (Tourdion: Quand je bois du vin clairet) - 7
Georgia (Shen Khar Venakhi; Tsaiqvanes Tamar Kali) - (17+1)=18 I think the Georgian chants are nice. I like pretty much all the vocal themes and wish more of the vanilla themes had vocals as well.
India (Vaishnav Jana to tene) - 18
Indonesia (Rejang Dewa; Bapang Selisir) - 20
Japan (Itsuki Lullaby) - 18
Khmer (Khmer Rourm Sam Mawgee) - 23 It might be repetitive but I love this theme for some reason....it's fitting for some musical about Southeast Asia
Korea (Arirang) - 10
Macedon (Tino Mori) - 5 I kind of like this theme, choosing a Slavic Macedonian song doesn't make sense for ancient Macedon, but having Macedon as a separate Civ doesn't make any sense.
Mongolia (Pastoral Song; Urtin Duu) - 27
Norway (Gjendine's Lullaby) - 15
Nubia (Allah Musau) - 21
Persia (Kereshme + Reng-e Shalakhu) - 20
Poland (Hej ide w las) - 14
Rome (Magna Mater) - 12 Sounds vaguely East Asian sometimes, I wonder how it would've sounded with the Latin vocals like the original.
Russia (Kalinka) - 16
Scotland (Scotland the Brave; Bonnie Dundee) - 14
Scythia (Traditional Melody) - 19
Spain (Recuerdos de la Alhambra) - (22-3)=19 Romantic sounding, but doesn't quite match the Civ5's themes.
Zulu (Uthe Ubhuti Asizomlanda, Bayisa, Halala, Shaka Mamba) - 23

 

[Wyvern_Parade]

America (Hard Times Come Again No More) - 17
Arabia (Üsküdara) - 22
China (Jasmine Flower) - 15
Cree (The Drums of Poundmaker) - 26
Egypt (El Helwa Di) - 9
France (Tourdion: Quand je bois du vin clairet) - 8 (7+1) Nice melody and sounds great up to the Medieval era at least. I'll try to save it for a little longer since there are worse themes still hanging around- Poland, Macedon, Norway, Korea, etc.
Georgia (Shen Khar Venakhi; Tsaiqvanes Tamar Kali) -18
India (Vaishnav Jana to tene) - 18
Indonesia (Rejang Dewa; Bapang Selisir) - 20
Japan (Itsuki Lullaby) - 18
Khmer (Khmer Rourm Sam Mawgee) - 23
Korea (Arirang) - 7 (10-3) Not terrible, but it tends to get annoying after a few listens. As others have mentioned, the later eras are not very pleasant.
Macedon (Tino Mori) - 5 I don't have particularly strong feelings about this one, but it's definitely not good enough to stay for long.
Mongolia (Pastoral Song; Urtin Duu) - 27
Norway (Gjendine's Lullaby) - 15
Nubia (Allah Musau) - 21
Persia (Kereshme + Reng-e Shalakhu) - 20
Poland (Hej ide w las) - 14 People are downvoting France for being another 'boring European theme' but not this?
Rome (Magna Mater) - 12
Russia (Kalinka) - 16
Scotland (Scotland the Brave; Bonnie Dundee) - 14
Scythia (Traditional Melody) - 19
Spain (Recuerdos de la Alhambra) -19
Zulu (Uthe Ubhuti Asizomlanda, Bayisa, Halala, Shaka Mamba) - 23

 

[Snipee356]

America (Hard Times Come Again No More) - 17
Arabia (Üsküdara) - 22
China (Jasmine Flower) - 15
Cree (The Drums of Poundmaker) - 23 (26-3) - Sorry, the loud chanting gets really irritating.
Egypt (El Helwa Di) - 9
France (Tourdion: Quand je bois du vin clairet) - 9 (8+1) - It's memorable and fits with the choice of leader as a representation of Renaissance France.
Georgia (Shen Khar Venakhi; Tsaiqvanes Tamar Kali) -18
India (Vaishnav Jana to tene) - 18
Indonesia (Rejang Dewa; Bapang Selisir) - 20
Japan (Itsuki Lullaby) - 18

[shadow8803]

Hi, first time poster, long time lurker. As the music is my favorite aspect of the games, I felt it was time to start participating!

America (Hard Times Come Again No More) - 17
Arabia (Üsküdara) - 22
China (Jasmine Flower) - 15
Cree (The Drums of Poundmaker) - 23
Egypt (El Helwa Di) - 9
France (Tourdion: Quand je bois du vin clairet) - 9
Georgia (Shen Khar Venakhi; Tsaiqvanes Tamar Kali) -19 (18+1) The Industrial and Atomic iterations may be repetitive treatments, but they nearly always bring a tear to my eye. This does NOT deserve to be eliminated in the mid-tier. I've sought these pieces on Apple Music the most to listen to outside the game.
India (Vaishnav Jana to tene) - 18
Indonesia (Rejang Dewa; Bapang Selisir) - 20
Japan (Itsuki Lullaby) - 18
Khmer (Khmer Rourm Sam Mawgee) - 23
Korea (Arirang) - 7
Macedon (Tino Mori) - 2 (5-3) While I don't necessarily DISLIKE the music, I find that I get mildly annoyed when it starts playing compared to others. I also don't think the cheeriness of the tune fits with Alexander's 'everlasting war' mentality.
Mongolia (Pastoral Song; Urtin Duu) - 27
Norway (Gjendine's Lullaby) - 15
Nubia (Allah Musau) - 21
Persia (Kereshme + Reng-e Shalakhu) - 20
Poland (Hej ide w las) - 14
Rome (Magna Mater) - 12
Russia (Kalinka) - 16
Scotland (Scotland the Brave; Bonnie Dundee) - 14
Scythia (Traditional Melody) - 19
Spain (Recuerdos de la Alhambra) -19
Zulu (Uthe Ubhuti Asizomlanda, Bayisa, Halala, Shaka Mamba) - 23

 

[BenitoChavez]

America (Hard Times Come Again No More) - 17
Arabia (Üsküdara) - 22
China (Jasmine Flower) - 15
Cree (The Drums of Poundmaker) - 20 = 23 - 3. It certainly isn't on the same tier as the Zulu or Mongolia themes.
Egypt (El Helwa Di) - 9
France (Tourdion: Quand je bois du vin clairet) - 9
Georgia (Shen Khar Venakhi; Tsaiqvanes Tamar Kali) -19
India (Vaishnav Jana to tene) - 18
Indonesia (Rejang Dewa; Bapang Selisir) - 20
Japan (Itsuki Lullaby) - 18
Khmer (Khmer Rourm Sam Mawgee) - 23
Korea (Arirang) - 7
Macedon (Tino Mori) - 2
Mongolia (Pastoral Song; Urtin Duu) - 27
Norway (Gjendine's Lullaby) - 15
Nubia (Allah Musau) - 21
Persia (Kereshme + Reng-e Shalakhu) - 20
Poland (Hej ide w las) - 14
Rome (Magna Mater) - 13 = 12 + 1. I think the tempo, grandeur, and ominousness fits Rome well.
Russia (Kalinka) - 16
Scotland (Scotland the Brave; Bonnie Dundee) - 14
Scythia (Traditional Melody) - 19
Spain (Recuerdos de la Alhambra) -19
Zulu (Uthe Ubhuti Asizomlanda, Bayisa, Halala, Shaka Mamba) - 23

America (Hard Times Come Again No More) - 14 Makes me restart the game, just like aus.
Arabia (Üsküdara) - 22
China (Jasmine Flower) - 15
Cree (The Drums of Poundmaker) - 21 Still the best
Egypt (El Helwa Di) - 9
France (Tourdion: Quand je bois du vin clairet) - 9
Georgia (Shen Khar Venakhi; Tsaiqvanes Tamar Kali) -19
India (Vaishnav Jana to tene) - 18

Japan (Itsuki Lullaby) - 18
Khmer (Khmer Rourm Sam Mawgee) - 23
Korea (Arirang) - 7
Macedon (Tino Mori) - 0 (2-3) FINISHED Sorry, but this was a lazy approach to providing a musical theme to such an amazing part of world's history and culture.
Mongolia (Pastoral Song; Urtin Duu) - 27
Norway (Gjendine's Lullaby) - 15
Nubia (Allah Musau) - 21
Persia (Kereshme + Reng-e Shalakhu) - 20
Poland (Hej ide w las) - 14

China (Jasmine Flower) - 15
Cree (The Drums of Poundmaker) - 21
Egypt (El Helwa Di) - 9
France (Tourdion: Quand je bois du vin clairet) - 6 (9 - 3). Still being consistent. We'll get to Poland next
Georgia (Shen Khar Venakhi; Tsaiqvanes Tamar Kali) -19

Nubia (Allah Musau) - 21
Persia (Kereshme + Reng-e Shalakhu) - 20
Poland (Hej ide w las) - 15 (=14 + 1) - I feel people are being harsh on the European themes. They're not samey at all. This is one of the most intricate and interesting themes in the whole soundtrack - the melding of different themes really comes into its own in the Industrial version, where the militaristic drums of war encroach on the rural idyll of the accordion. Fantastic.
Rome (Magna Mater) - 13
Russia (Kalinka) - 17
Scotland (Scotland the Brave; Bonnie Dundee) - 15
Scythia (Traditional Melody) - 19
Spain (Recuerdos de la Alhambra) - 16 (=19 - 3) - I like the Spanish guitar in the earlier version, but this set of themes fails to develop particularly later on, becoming a little flat compared with the more some of the other themes. So I'm bringing it down a notch
Zulu (Uthe Ubhuti Asizomlanda, Bayisa, Halala, Shaka Mamba) - 23

France (Tourdion: Quand je bois du vin clairet) - 7 (6+1... I don’t mind France’s theme, but my little vote probably will not save it for long...)
Georgia (Shen Khar Venakhi; Tsaiqvanes Tamar Kali) - 16 (19-3... Don’t understand the love for this one... the repetitive chanting through the eras gets very old, very quickly)

Egypt (El Helwa Di) - 9
France (Tourdion: Quand je bois du vin clairet) - 7
Georgia (Shen Khar Venakhi; Tsaiqvanes Tamar Kali) - 17 (16 + 1 Objectively speaking, if you don't like the theme for Georgia you have no taste and are a bad human being)

America (Hard Times Come Again No More) - 14+1=15 - Georgia can survive for some time without my upvote. American themes are beautiful and they evolve quite well. They show us how American civilization evolves from huble beggining into a great and influental world power, and this is exactly what I want to hear from themes. I just can't let it drop so soon.

Khmer (Khmer Rourm Sam Mawgee) - 23
Korea (Arirang) - 7-3=4 - Korea has same problem as France - the ancient and especially medieval versions are great, but I find the industrial and atomic to be rather bland and boring.
