[Zephyrin]

I will have to say Bloody Tears, from the Saturn Version of Nocturne in the Moonlight.

This is not on a specific OST, but the reason I named it is that this was the song that essentially brought me to VGM. I cannot deny it's awesomeness.

Prelude from Castlevania 3

[Bodomi]

Castlevania: Symphony of the night - The tragic prince (this is my absolute favorite)
Castlevania: Dracula X - Bloody Tears
Castlevania 3 - Aquarius
Castlevania - Vampire Killer

[Rince]

My all time Fav is of course "Bloody Tears" in all it's various incarnations.

What I like VERY much, too is the song called "Picture of the Ghost Ship" (STAGE 5, Dracula X, PC Engine CD), and of course Opus 13 is top notch, too.

[Saytan]

Castlevania symphony of the night :

-prologue
-tragic prince
-I am the wind

Dracula Battle Albums :

-bloody tears
-reincarnated soul (awesome)
-the beginning

and many more..those are the ones I listen to often.

I was making a list of my favorites songs, but i've got something shorter to reply : I like all Castlevania tunes. :)

[Capcom Guitar]

well, i don't have a ~specific~ favorite OST or Arranged album, i love ALL Castlevania/Dracula music. but i'd have to say my favorite games were and still are Castlevania III: Dracula's Curse (NES), Super Castlevania IV (SNES) and Castlevania: Symphony of the Night (PSX). Konami's music kicks ass - plain and simple.

[SuperDK]

I happen to like all Vampire Killers. I also like: The sinking old sanctuary, harmony of dissonance, and all of the Circle of the Moon songs. except for the sewers one...

[Zeitgeist]

Can't go wrong with Bloody Tears. Tragic Prince, and many others on the SOTN soundtrack. Yes, I'm just typical, nothing special about the ones I like.

[Rince]

That reminds me: The Dracula Battle albums had two very cool Ballad-like songs on them: "Calling from Heaven" and "Requiem for the Nameless Victims" - I hear those very often. They're part of my "VGM RELAX" Compilation.

[Sir VG]

Bloody Tears (Especially in CV4), Beginning (Especially in CV4), and Opus #13 (Konami Battle the Best). These are the big tracks I love. But there are so many more that are great as well.

[Flint]

I don't know the tracklist but i like Track 7 from Akumajo Dracula Best 2 Disc 2 the most. Its from CV 4

[Grass-eatin'me]

My favourite is Cross a Fear, from Battle Perfect Selection, and the same track from Castlevania Dracula X for Super Nintendo.

[LastGunman]

I love Castlevania 4 Stage 1 and the SOTN-Soundtrack. I have also Castlevania MIDI Collection on CD, and would love to have some more.
