Music of Nier and Nier Automata

Nier has one of the best soundtracks among all the media out there. They pleasant melodies and touching lyrics are one of the best ever. They were great in the original Nier and got even better in the sequel, Nier Automata.

The masterful use of fictional language allows them to touch hearts of people worldwide.

Most of the soundtrack is great, but I will list only some of the songs. The very best of them.

Song of the Ancients - is so good, they made 4 separate remakes to it.

Cold Rain, Vague Hope - It plays when 2B cries as she kills 9S. It perfectly reflects on the gravity and tragedy of the act she has to perform as well as on the tragedy of their circumstances. 

Bipolar Nightmare - this is a more dynamic song, that plays during the battle. It however has complexity and sophistication.

Shadowlord - has some nice choral singing. Very unusual for video games

That is just tip of the iceberg of music of Nier. Full soundtrack is here.
