You are safe here, but..... *Eventually, you'll have to go out, again.*

"There's a lantern lying on top of the supplies. The warm light makes you relax." Those were the days...

“It’s an old typewriter. You can save your progress with this.” “Use the ink ribbon?”

"You lie on your bed listening to the music, and you start to drift off. Before you know it, you're asleep" "Do you want to save?" >Yes No

My Bedroom feels like the Save room now.

I'm 35 an this still makes my eyes water. There was so much innocence in childhood. We have all grown up...

Just like the game when you find the room with the typewriter, and you know you're safe. Listening to this takes me back to a time when I had no worries, no bills, no obligations, a more simple time in my childhood.

“Fear can’t kill you. But...”

My father bought me this game used at a mom&pop store. At the time I thought I would hate it. My dad played it for 2 hours and called it trash as he couldnt understand why "killing all the zombies didnt do anything". I played the game and slowly sloved the puzzles of this twisted mansion and uncovered the horrors unleashed by a company I would later know as Umbrella. However towards the end of the game my young self could not figure out the "Mole" puzzle in the lab. I turned to my only other gamer in the house my dad. At first he seemed puzzled I was till playing the game. He saw that it was a puzzle and smirked. I let him at for 10 minutes and he couldnt figure it out. Efventually we pieced it together and he watched me beat the game. I put the game away and went to bed. The next day after school my dad was playing the game again. Powerful what one song in one room can dig out of my head.

This composition is seriously incredible. It makes me feel fear and uncertainty yet I also get a sense of a strange calmness and peacefulness. It's like there are monsters and hell on the other side of the door but for now I'm in a safe environment that can't be penetrated......yet I have dread knowing my peace is only temporary as I know I must face the eeriness and unknown that awaits on the other side at some point. It's inevitable. Music is a powerful thing.

R.I.P to my aunt. I remember I use to watch her play resident evil. This save room theme reminds me of her. I love you auntie. See you when I clock out someday.

This used to be my alarm getting up in the morning. Ready for the horrors that await...

God this brings back memories. Me being a young woman sitting at the kitchen table playing this game, while my mom cooked. Life was very simple.

After so many years it's still the best save room soundtrack ever.

This really is the only time you truly feel safe in the game.

I work night shift (EMT-SECURITY 😉), this is the background music when I'm in the guard house. It really hits home when the junkies are stumbling around outside.

When did I get so old..?

This song makes me feel a little sad, empty, the composition is very deep and powerful

I don't know why, but this ps1-ps2 era of game will never be the same, the vibes those game could give you were immaculate, now games are so... common, i don't know how to express it.

The music that plays in your home on a summer night when no one is home.

I almost cried when I ran into the first safe room of the remake, just... the nostalgia, I miss the 90's, I miss being young and I miss my insane fear of zombies brought on by the picture on the back of the PS1 manual, you know the one!

Listen to this in the game was really special. It made you feel safe. RE Remake hands down one of the best games in history of mankind

On the ps3, my father and I, who until then were not very close, started playing this incredible game, it was very incredible to discover the countless puzzles in the game's mansion, he would tell me his stories about when he beat the game with his cousin on the ps1 and that they didn't have a memory card so when they died they came back from the beginning of the game, I miss that time. I miss this feeling, I love this game!

A year ago I was having trouble at work, hence dealing with a lot of stress every day. I was at a really dark place and somehow that one hour of listening to this with headphones, saved me. Grateful that I saved the game. Life doesn't always give you ink ribbons..

Probably one of the best remakes I've ever seen. I really hope RE2 matches this quality.

I absolutely love how this tune manages to capture both soothing calmness while at the same time maintaining an eeriness that keeps you on edge. These two things should be in conflict with each other, and yet this combines them seamlessly. Beautiful.

This is the first videogame ever to make me go HOLY SHIT and absolutely blow my mind back in 2002. I could not believe a videogame could have those kind of graphics. I don't think any game has shocked me as much as this one ever since. Not even the most modern ones, the magic is gone. The jump from n64 and ps1 to GameCube and ps2 was something we will never see ever again

I've been playing REmake for 16 years. I always beat this game at least three times a year and I even got into speed running it for a little while (my personal best was 1:32 new game mode normal 'climbing'). I've beaten this game countless times on every difficulty setting. I've beaten this game countless times with challenge runs such as "knife only" and "no healing" on every game mode and in every difficulty. I've spent nights 12-14 hours at a time just enjoying this game and learning every nook and cranny to every piece of lore you can find in the game. No matter how far away I tread from this game and no matter how long it's been the mansion always calls me back. This game is like a ghost that haunts you and you can't escape it's intoxicating appeal, charm and subtlety. It's so stoic in its embrace that it keeps you held in its arms as if you were a foreigner in a strange land seeking knowledge and wisdom. This game is a part of me and has buried itself deep into my soul. From the first moment I saw a preview of this game on TechTV back in 2003 I knew that this was going to be something special. I know there's a lot of you that will probably feel like this game is boring compared to the newer resident evil titles and you are definitely entitled to that opinion. What I would like to say is if you are on the fence about playing this game I highly encourage it. This game is a masterpiece of gem that is unlike any other. Sure Resident Evil 0 comes close visually but I can say that gameplay wise and level design wise it doesn't even come close. This game stands alone and it is every bit a part of me as I am of it.

Personally, I think it's better than the original theme. More haunting, yet more comforting as well.

"Oh god, please give me a break... No zombies here? thank you!" - Me the first time I played this masterpiece.

I feel like a lot of us that listen to resident evil soundtracks for the save themes all share something in common in life that makes us all feel very unsettled and we all try to reach for that feeling of safety, like the main characters in these games.

I grew up with this series, my bedtime story as you'd call it. Flipping through the game guide and telling my dad as if he hasn't beaten it 100x before. On our Gamecube, box TV, late at night and storms rolling in. Done it for years... now 20 years old and still will do the same.

they dont make games like this anymore

Two of my friends and I were coming back home late at night after a party, we were baked , and I had this song on my headphones: They had their hood on and they were slowly driving their bike juste in front of me , in this long straight street where all the houses seems to have been copy-past next to each other. We never met any sign of life during our journey, everything was so quiet. Just sounds of leeves swept away by the wind and upper branch of trees shaking.... There was a light rain falling, and the road was almost fellow as it was wet and reflecting the heavy lights from the street lamps. I've never had this feeling before but for about 20 mins I felt like we were the only remaining souls on earth. Powerful music

The song that plays when you enter your house after being outside with the C-Virus everywhere

It's things like this that make me proud to be a resident evil fan.

I used to stay in the safe rooms for hours, just listening to this, back in 2002. This theme is just... I can't really describe it. I feel so relaxed yet so anxious every time listen to it. My emotions are conflicting each other and the outcome is me almost ready to cry! Yes, this theme is THIS amazing!

When you remember this music from your past, it also means it's time for a prostate screening.

I remember running from a hunter with low health while I ran into this room, I felt comfort. I stayed in this room for 10 minutes of rethinking my strategy. This music is perfect for thinking!!!

1998... I'll never forgett

My bedroom is my metaphorical save room. This is playing in there 24/7

Despite it being eerie as hell, no song ever made me feel more safe.

If I ever have a kid I’ll play this on loop as a lullaby if the little tyke has problems falling asleep…

Hauntingly beautiful.

Imagine, just barely surviving a journey through a mansion filled with zombies, barely armed. You get to a safe room with a box, and a candle. I cannot think of any motivation to leave that room in such a horrible situation.

"What is it" - Barry Burton, every Time he sees Zombies.

I just turned 28 years old last week, this song has been with me since I was 11 years old and I still love it. Unbelievable nostalgia.

Listening to this after a long day of school filled with unwanted problems is a whole new experience.

This deserves a Grammy for best sound bruh

The best gamecube game.

reminds me a lot of the loading screen from Dark Souls 1, song is called "Souls of Fire", similar harp arpeggios with some ethereal background droning melody, awesome combo

My dad loves this game. I just picked it up recently and started playing it. It's fun, confusing, and tedious. That's the charm. Nowadays everyone hates their dads or even parents in general. But I love both my mom and dad. Sometimes they piss me off but that never outweighs how much i love them. Playing this game feels almost like I'm doing something for my dad. I'm not very good at it though. 8hrs and I've only gotten to giving Richard the serum and 10 saves. It makes me feel like I wanna make a game like this. For my dad. But I'm on Mac so I can't use rpgmaker as I did on windows [sadly wine isn't compatible for new versions of Mac :/ ] The saferooms are always such a nice place. I set whatever I've gathered in there, take something, and leave. I feel like I'm not a true resident evil fan for whatever reason even though I'm only really playing this game cuz my dad said it's pretty good. As if I need to play the "newer better games." Honestly I really don't care for tall vampire lady. I like Jill and solving puzzles. I also sometimes wish I was around for the release of this remake and the 2000s horror craze in general. But one day some kids in the future will wish they lived through the release of fnaf and other stuff. So I appreciate what I have now. That's all. I'll make my way out of this safe room. See ya guys later 👋👍

today i was playing Resident Evil HD remaster and i entered the save room, i just increased the volume and slept like a baby! i woke up and jill was waiting for me 😂 it is very calming i love it ❤️❤️

Some kids childhood was Mario or pokemon, mine was the resident evil and silent hill series.

I love this song that the fact is you are safe in one room and the terrors are at the other side of the door but can't get to you....

This song plays for all introverts when they come home. It's not my comment, it was here under the video, I just couldn't find it anymore

ok its time to restock, reload, and smoke some wee.... I mean take some green herb

And the memories come flooding back... Such an amazing piece that gave you some sort of eerie relaxation. You knew you were safe for the time being but at the same time looming in the back of your head was the thought of what lies on the other side of the door. What horrors you left behind but can't be avoided, wether it be the hunter you ran past to get in the door or zombies waiting outside that you have few rounds left for. That's horror and that's what today's "horror" games need, not countless jump scares or huge action scenes but that one feeling. They really got it right.

the distant sound thats always in it makes it feel so eerie, yet.. somehow calming, you know youre sage from the horrors outside, the warm light.. calming you down, the old typewriter clicking reminding you theres still hope out there that is what goes through my head every time, re1 became almost a comfort game due to this

Has anyone else noticed how similar Dark Souls character creation music sounds to this?

RE7 needs this

nostalgia at it's finest.

Escaped the nightmare for the first time today. Incredible experiences. One of the greatest games ever made, one all should play.

I can hear the clacking on the type writer. The slow creak of the item box lurching open. Its all so wonderful.

the save rooms and music offered a very important element to these series. A lot of horror games today have forgotten this but having moments of calm, moments where the player is completely aware that they won't be attacked, help heighten the tension when they are being attacked or hunted. Giving the player a momentary respite is good to keep horror working. Outlast didn't do this. Instead it kept the tension at maximum the whole way through. Outlast isn't a bad game but I got tired of it really quickly and I haven't bothered for a second play through. Unlike Amnesia or RE or Silent Hill.

Ahhhhhh...the soothing sounds of the save room after a bloody battle.

This is one of the only videos on the internet that truly calms me down whenever my life feels like shit and have stuff in my mind. Just sit back in my dimly lit apartment and soak in the melancholy until I fall asleep.

Iconic music that transports you back to the survival horror glory days of 1996 to early 00's. Battaling for your life and finding the sanctuary of the save room with it welcoming warm glow and its calming music. You will never have a gaming memory like this ever again.

I go to sleep listening to this every night... there is a pure sense of security and tranquillity behind this theme that make it very surprising to know that it is actually in a Survival Horror title. Truly a masterful composition from Capcom.

I'm studying for my Microbiology midterm with this music. Rather fitting.

Spooky and atmospheric, yet strangely meditative. I love this music.

I am not ashamed to say this. This is one of the most beautiful pieces of music to listen to. The thing turns in such a sad and yet beautiful way, the way it slows down just before it repeats, and the swelling sound in the background is like the wind blowing through the door, wailing in sorrow. The whole piece is very nostalgic...so much so for me, there was a time I couldn't re visit this on that account. Thanks for uploading:)

There will never be a better theme.

The warm light makes you relax.

This song is apart of my childhood, so lucky to have experienced it the way I did. So amazing to grow with a series like this. This song symbolizes safety to me, long live Resident Evil!

You know when you understand a piece of music so much it became timeless.. this is one of them.

When you’re home from work.

we are here all over again brothers and sisters, gaming life is one of our best classic childhood memories. started RE 1 when i was 12, now i am 38. life is good, folks.

"Nearly out of ammo, my nerves are shot... my sanity is failing... let me rest for a while here in this safe room". This brings back so many good memories....

"Fight your fears and survive."

I was 12 when this came out, I'm 26 now and the wave of nostalgia from this song, man. I remember just sitting in the save room hoping I didn't have to leave but at the same time I was all, "'I gotta get out of this scary ass mansion! " but then I'd go, " I'll leave in a min....maybe 5.... "

A few years back, while I was procrastinating on studying for my criminal justice class as I did so often back then, I was browsing KZfaq and looking for something that I could try and study to, and I was recommended this gem. This was my first time hearing the music, let alone anything from the series. I’m not saying it captivated me in some super poetic way, but the imagery and the music combined with reading other people’s stories was enough for me to want to get the game. And I’m beyond glad I did. Great game. Great series.

This song is amazing. It just sounds very sad yet at the same time there's a sort of peace to it. Like a spirit shedding their regrets and moving on. The gentle howling and the plucking of what I can only assume is some sort of acoustic, adding a sort of ethereal feeling to the song hanging around it like a dense fog. This song wouldn't be out of place in Silent Hill I think, yet it works so well in RE too.

I don't know how to describe the feeling I feel for this great melody. I like listening to her because for a moment she forgot all my problems and just like in the game I feel safe in this place that I call home.

One of the BEST games I HAVE EVER PLAYED in my life! Heck, I am playing it to this day, too! It's amazing! A truly amazing experience! The REmake, Zero, 3, and the first Outbreak are my favourite ones! Anyway, this theme is both relaxing and terrifying! That "ambient scream" (can't describe it in a different way) freaks me out!

I remember living my first 8 years in different high-rise building on the 7th floor. We had an old sovied school and overgrown field in front of it. This place always feelt like a small jungle. Then you walked through it you could see some parts of very old soviet playgrounds, fence, almost erased roads. In 2023 these memories feel like another world, lonely and irrevocable

re1, re2, re3, re4, cvx save room music slappin me with so much coziness and nostalgia

Sad, Dark, Alone, Mystic and GREAT

It's very strange how a tune like that with a very scary meaning can make me feel home and in a state of peace that i barely get in the real life

you feel so safe..

finally started this game the other day, currently up to the cabin after a long, genuinely scary trek. im in love with it, the atmosphere, puzzles, music, tension, just perfect. this song is so relaxing, soothing, makes you feel so safe even though theres a furious crimson head waiting for you outside. so far seems like the perfect survival horror game🤤and i really wanna know what the fuck is behind that octagon door

No matter how many time this is looped, I listen this while I study. Why not? Makes the study more interesting and misterious. o.o

First time hearing this and it already feels like a trip down the memory lane.

It's the perfect music for a safe room. It provides a subtle comfort whilst making sure you still feel haunted and lost in a nightmare world... Neither wanting to stay and let your thoughts wander in fear nor leave and face the horror... Love and Hate it.

I have listened to this theme as an adult in every home we have lived in over the years. This song is home to many R.E. fans. Thanks for posting.

I ran into this audio on Instagram while watching reels, and this music struck me. I had to go look for it so here I am, just savoring the beautiful eerieness of this music. It gives off an eerie, off putting feel to it, like, where am I, I've been lost for as long as I remember... until this save room appears. Really good composition. It looks like I have a game to play.

I am going to RE MARATHON this winter break

This feeling, to me, was the point of the game; to reach a place of shelter and sanctuary, finally, with nothing left but the will to survive.

Epic music to fold laundry to

For a first time player, this was always a relief.
