General Information

Composed by: Yasunori Mitsuda
Original Japanese Title: 歌�山(アンリリースド・トラック)Utau Yama (anrirīsudo torakku) [Singing Mountain (unreleased track)]
Time Signature: 4/4

This track was intended for Singing Mountain in the Chrono Trigger Prerelease. Yasunori Mitsuda was asked about the song's original intent at Procyon-Studio; the question and response:

(This is slightly paraphrased because the Japanese is a little more redundant than is grammatically acceptable in English.)

About the not-yet-recorded Chrono Trigger song "Singing Mountain", it's really too bad it didn't make it into the game. Was the song for an event at Death Mountain after Crono dies? Was it planned to insert the song when going to the mountain to revive Crono? Why was it rejected? It's a very good song (I'd really love to hear it with live instruments and vocals). Also, the prelude to Frog's Theme wasn't included, but it was on the CD. Why was it in the CD, but not in the game?

(From Mitsuda himself) There was a dungeon where that song was used, but because the dungeon didn't contain much and there were no problems or anything that advanced the game, it was cut. So inevitably the song was cut with it (*sniffle*). About Frog's Theme, because the prelude was meant to rise up during an event, the song starts out partway through, but since we took great pains with the CD it started from the prelude there.
