I don't think that is a fair assessment. (Destiny)

Preface to this comparison: I personally reject your requirement of character for good music. At least isolating to that term. I consider emotive force more important and the given context, and I do consider memorable to be an aspect of "character," but made more important by the emotive force of familiarity. More on that later.

Emotive force is not enough. Pretty much every piece has an emotion attached to it. I'm sure you've seen movies or played games were you have 'sad' music when you are supposed to be said, 'epic' music when it's supposed to be epic, etc. Yet we never talk about these types of music choices when we talk about the best. Emotive force is the bare minimum actually.
