Green Sleeves is Disc 2, Track 7 on the Xenosaga Original Soundtrack. It is an arrangement of the traditional English folk song Greensleeves for solo piano.
It plays when Febronia shows the party the illusion that Cecily and Cathe see in KOS-MOS' subconscious domain. The young Shion also hums this when the party sees her in the subconscious domain on Old Miltia.

電話の保留音などで有名なこの曲(笑)、 イギリスのトラ ッドなんですが、 ピアノアレンジをしてみて改めて良い 曲だな~って思ってしまいました。

Trivia[edit]

Wikipedia
- One of the most popular variations of the original song is What Child Is This?, a traditional Christmas carol which has different lyrics set to the melody of Greensleeves. This religious connotation may have been a reason for its inclusion in Xenosaga Episode I.
- One popular interpretation of Greensleeves' lyrics is that subject was a prostitute. Given that Mary Magdalene has historically been portrayed as a prostitute, this may be another possible reason for the song's inclusion in Xenosaga.
