Sounds awesome, not as good as Morrowind, but Morrwind is in my honest opinion the greatest theme for a video game ever. It's at least as good as Oblivion.

It's good, if a bit overly-bombastic for my personal tastes. Considering it's supposed to be set in the Norse-lands however, that's probably not only intentional but appropriate as well though.

Still, the Morrowind theme shall probably remain my favourite of the Elder Scrolls themes.


Starts out slow, sweet, relaxing before building up towards a more dramatic flair towards the end. It sounds both mysterious and adventurous, everything you could want from the theme for this sort of game. And what's more, despite having heard the song countless times over the years, I still enjoy listening to it and get a swell of nostalgia each and every time.

Hard to compete with that!

It's another home run. The pace and style of the last two Elder Scrolls game themes matched their respective game's style. I'm expecting the tension and excitement of this theme to inform the style of the game!

From the fury of the Northmen, deliver us, O Lord!

This is the perfect music for synchronized rowing... preferably on one of those ancient Greek slave ships.

It's a nice change of pace from than the usual fantasy god-chior.

Once the classic Morrowind and Oblivion themes start fading in, my whole body goes shivering and "hell yeah it's time to kick ass and chew bear meat, and I'm all out of bear"

As someone who didn't really get into Oblivion and LOVED Morrowind, all this about the weirdness, the vikings, the snow, the score...

It's all coming together to threaten to make me excited. I just have to temper it. Bethesda hasn't made a game I've REALLY felt was great since Morrowind.

But maybe this will be it.

...but once it gets to the main theme from both Morrowind and Oblivion it gets the memories of those games coming back and its just awesome.

Still has the booming percussion, same general theme, albeit modified a bit, and now it sounds like a Viking ship crew after a good bout of raiding. November can't come soon enough.

Felt that the Oblivion theme didn't deliver what it began to promise. There is a touch of Pirates of the Caribbean but the hoo-hah def gets my vote. Just moved house so I'm saving for a big new tv screen before I break out the 360 and get Skyrim... can't wait

I like it, it fits the region of Skyrim pretty well. Only thing I personally dont like is the "Heh HUAH heh" part. Men grunting is not my favourite thing to listen to

I like the skyrim theme. Though that maybe just because I enjoy manly sounding men chanting. That combined version of the themes though. Now that is orgasmic.
