I wonder if the official tracklist is actually:

Battlissimo (バトル曲アレンジメドレー)
Forgotten Wings ~忘れられた翼~ (中世編フィールドアレンジ)

since two of those sites give the extra parenthetical info.

Aside from that, I'm never quite sure what to do when the tracklist provides a translation for itself, because it becomes redundant. Sometimes I go for Forgotten Wings ~Wasurerareta Tsubasa~ which serves as an indicator that the original tracklist wasn't doubling up for any specific purpose, aside from translating the English that their customer might not be familiar with.

And that reminds me, we have a ton of Dragon Quest soundtracks where there are English and Japanese trackname kind of like this, but we've been using just the English ones for ages. The problem with nearly all of them is that the English and Japanese don't match up on a lot of them.

So yeah, there's a lot to think about.
