Wrothgar.
Still is my favoritte zone, in all aspects.

I can't pick just one favorite, and like the music in all zones to be honest. But I like the stirring battle music in Craglorn and Cyrodiil, and love the music in Morrowind for nostalgic reasons.

As for bards, I really like several of the songs that the bard in Saint Delyn canton in Vivec City sings.

Can't hear music over siege and massive battles in Cyrodiil.

I would like an option to change the soundtrack in houses and set one from the ones available in the game.

I'd like an option to toggle music completely off just in houses.

Clockwork City zone music. It's a deeply melancholic music which matches the tone of the story and characters.

Additionally, the Shadow Cleft delve within Clockwork City. The music is serene and mystical, like twilight. That's how I imagined Evergloam to be.

Bahraha's Gloom. Absolutely at the top for one of the most well-crafted delves with a mysterious soundtrack. Top Notch.

How can we find out the names of the zone songs?

https://en.uesp.net/wiki/Online:Music lists all the tunes/zones. I think from there you should be able to look up specific song lyrics if they've been added to the wiki, otherwise they're likely findable through your search engine of choice.

Flowers fine, sung by that khajeeti lady in Rimmen.

although the Elsweyr music is very close, especially Dancing Among The Flowers Fine

Maybe it's because I don't hear it any more, but I particularly appreciated that one in Dwarven ruins. Also, Wrothgar's soundtrack in Stonefalls. Of course, that's going back years and possibly only for a few weeks, for all I know.

I play with music off because I tend to listen to spotify instead (I have playlists for all the characters I play!) but the Summerset bard songs get stuck in my head sometimes. I do recall enjoying the Murkmire bard songs. I don’t go there really at all but I remember actually stopping to listen.

Hats off to whoever wrote Red Diamond. Whenever I hear a bard sing that one, I will pause and wait for them to finish the song.

This is a fantastic idea!

I like the base game music, and I preferred it when it was unique by zone instead of what it is today - where I'll hear Cyro or Wrothgar music in say Rivenspire. I also really like the first few chapters' music, up to Greymoor anyway.

I like the sounds in Fargrave. Favorite bards are the ones from Rimmen an Leyawiin.

We have similar tastes I see, the Rimmen bard Rakzzin singing The Burning of Senchal is my favorite bardic performance. Also all the Murkmire bards, "a belly full of regret" is part of my lexicon.

But yeah, Red Diamond, many people say it is the best song ever written

Red Diamond used to be my favorite until I heard Sway as We Kiss. But it's a very close second to me now.

Thank you for that link.
