Hey all. It’s been over a month since I last posted. Well, due to my own laziness and…over a month I had to deal with a very painful nerve compression or irritation – which lasted for a good few weeks (still not 100% yet, about 80ish%). The symptom is called sciatica. For those that don’t want to bother with the link, in short; lots of pain down my legs and buttocks. Thankfully, the pain has receded. Still on my guard. Anyway, enough of my pity talk.
Not too long ago, the fastest hedgehog in the world Sonic turned 30. To celebrate the joyous occasion, I’ve asked Matt from Matt in the hat and Scorpz from scorpzgca.com to join me in seeing which OST we like from any games that stars the fastest, cool blue hedgehog from mobius.
His World – Sonic 06 Theme (Zebrahead)
Roki says…
This track is the one where I actually resonate with. I guess the lyrics to the song
“You can’t stop now, lock and load. Don’t stop now, c’mon, rock n’ roll!” 🤘. It made me realise, even though part of me wanted to stop blogging. I found myself I can’t. In a dumb way, blogging is my world.
Scorpz says…
It’s a really great song it describes Sonic the Hedgehog well and suits his style as the protagonist it’s very awesome and inspiring
Matt says…
His World is an epic song. It sounds like a song to push your limits and take on the world. I forgot to mention how much I love the version of the song. I like the Zebrahead and Crush 40. It’s also cool how far Sonic will go to save Princess Elise and the world. He will even travel through time to save her.
I am … all me – Shadow the hedgehog (Crush 40)
Scorpz says…
I Am…All of Me by Crush 40 (Main theme of Shadow the Hedgehog) this theme song is very awesome and intense, it represents Shadow the hedgehog as a edgy character who is out for revenge and justice
Roki says…
I am, is also a fav of mine. It was cool when shadow first made his appearance in Sonic adventure 2. Crush 40 did an awesome job of doing this song. The dark, rebellious theme really stands out.
Matt says…
I am all of me is another great song. It focuses on Shadow the Hedgehog and it’s a whole level of edginess. This isn’t a typical kid friendly adventure like Sonic. It’s a story about a ruthless hedgehog seeking answers. I like this song. It makes me feel like I can use my determination and anger to fight against the odds.
Knight of the wind – Sonic and the black knight (Crush 40)
Matt says…
I choose Knight of the Wind. It’s one of my favorite songs. Despite being not the best Sonic games, I love the music and the theme of knighthood and chivalry. Sometimes I like to imagine myself as a knight and facing every challenge.
Scorpz says…
Sonic Knight of the wild is a astonishing soundtrack I like the rhythm, tempo, harmony and melody is great and very exciting
Roki says…
Crush 40 did an awesome job on this track. As Matt says, it captures that essence of chivalry. Yet still able to rock to it. I haven’t played black knight, so I can’t actually say if the game is good. Even if the game isn’t good, the track is memorable. The line that sticks out to me the most is “in a rage, I’ll save each and everyone, till this war is won”, which translates to me as no matter what, I’ll never give up – which is pretty cool.
And so, that brings an end to this post. I like to thank Matt and Scorpz for taking part and naming their favourite Sonic sound tracks. Each OST they picked I enjoy listening to. Sonic has been around for 30 years, I still remember when I went to my childhood friends house, and just sat there mesmerised by the rich, vibrant colours on his TV. Seeing Sonic dashing across the screen in Sonic 1. That memory I’ll never forget. Thanks Sonic for the memories!!.
Now I do have an idea, I’m thinking of opening up my favourite list a bit more. As anyone who read my 4 favourite posts, you’ll know it’s a tag list. Meaning I tag others, whilst making a list in no order what so ever. The idea I have is a variation of it, its to bring others on to give their thoughts on their favourite, whatever theme I choose to do it on. That’s the gist, of course I’ll tweak it a bit. Yeah, it sounds so cool to have guest commentators on their favourite OST, games, anime etc.
Thanks for reading, and I’ll catch you folks on the next post!
