Captures the SNES and forest themes perfectly!

This song is excellent.  It captures the SNES idea in an awesome way, and it's great for a forest.  You can hear Nobuo Uematsu's influence in this work, actually.  It amazes me how some artists can conjure up images in your mind of game scenes without seeing anything or reading anything.  If someone had told me to name what part of a game this was from, I would have easily picked out that this was a forest in under a second.

On the other hand, I found myself wondering whether it could be even better using modern instruments.  Perhaps I'm just not the nostalgic type, because the melody is beautiful.  It achieves the stated objective perfectly, but technology moves on and I always like to see and hear the latest and greatest.  I can't knock the song for something like this, though.

Edited: removed the part about repetition.  The song is just repeated twice, which doesn't count as repetition.
