Fun Fact: some of the melodies in this song were later used for the sega developed PSX game Metropolis Street Racer, specifically in the song "It Doesn't Really Matter".
This is seriously one of the comfiest soundtracks ever. It’s just so easy on the ears while still having a lot of energy. There’s really not much like it.
@@dcvmu I think it stems from that video from Screwattack or some other website. They named Sonic R the worst Sonic game and complained about the soundtrack, even though I'd rather play Sonic R than Sonic 2 8-bit (the MS/GG game, not the Genesis game)
In an alternate reality, sonic the hedgehog 4 is released for the SEGA Saturn as a 3D title with gameplay similar to sonic adventure. The music for sonic 4 would be the music from this game because sonic 3D blast Saturn in that reality didn’t exist. How amazing that would be.
I would say Sonic R came closest to the level design of the classics out of all the 3D games in the series. And they should because they share the same lead level designer.
Hey, someone else has listened to the metropolis street racer soundtrack! And i just realised myself that these songs have the same melody, thanks to you
To call something nice is usually to condemn it with faint praise, but in this case I very sincerely mean it when I say that this is nice. It's pleasant and energetic in a way that maintains your interest without being overbearing in any sense.
I played this game as a kid and genuinely enjoyed it. The jumps were annoying at times, but it wasn’t a horrendous experience. I think this game would have been more well received if it wasn’t specifically Sonic game. It also has easily one of my top 3 sonic OSTs. This, Heroes, and Unleashed, in no particular order. The quality of Sonic games is hit or miss, but the soundtracks are always top tier. Even Sonic ‘06 has a good soundtrack:
People tend to exaggerate when it comes to Sonic. This game is fine, a little repetitive and boring at worst. But because it’s Sonic people will claim it’s the worst thing ever
@@rouge939 honestly I prefer this to playing sonic boom ( rise of lyric,shattered crystal even fire and ice) sonic 1 Gameboy or watching sonic underground(I like the show but this is much better)
@@rouge939 Not really, even at the time people knew this game wasn't very good. This game has earned its negative reputation all on its own. Bad game is bad.
My favorite track of all sonic games; this reminds me of how much fun it was at that time when i was still studying at school and i always remembered how beautiful it was that i was a sonic fan at that time it was very incredible it gives me a nostalgia of joy and tranquility as if i was in paradise , that yes that is completely spectacular Sonic music, just like Nights and Ristar had it in their games.
This game and Nights into Dreams spent so much time in my Discman in the 90s. Ah, the days of Redbook audio. It was like buying the game and getting the OST for free.
My goodness this track is so beautiful. One of the best examples of a beginning level theme. It's very calm sounding but also upbeat, which fits really well. Favourite track in the saturn soundtrack.
After playing the Genesis version of this game my whole life since the 90s, I finally tried the Saturn version today, 7/6/23 and holy fucking shit this soundtrack is so much fucking better! And I'm so amazed at all the extra graphical details!
Whenever I listen to this song, it gives me a lot of memories of when I played the sss beta when they brought me my first computer, I was very happy and became super addicted to sss!! But when the reborn started, every day I didn't play sss, but now I'm back to sss! And now I do as many events as I can.
@@vistahalloween_2812 yeah no it’s not stock music. Richard Jacques was actually quite smart with how he composed the entire OST as derivations I’d the main theme, but with huge variety in terms of genre, melody, chord voicings etc
I remember getting this for the Saturn soon after it came out. I actually asked my parents for the Sonic Collection, but they couldn't find it, but they found and gave this for my birthday instead. I remember listening to the OST on the Saturns music player as much as playing the actual game itself. The Saturn era of Sega games had some fucking amazing music. Better then most of the Sony and Nintendo counterparts. So much of it largely forgotten though, seeing as the console itself was an absolute failure.
The Saturn was a complete failure in major regions,but there were two (at least that I'm concerned) that Sega's console received a warm welcome. *Japan* : one of the most prestigious videogame regions,the Saturn sold pretty well there! Most of the 9.13M units sold were Japanese,as Sega this time was perhaps trying to focus on their homeland, similar to the Mega-CD. The console wars in Japanese lands eventually was won by Sony's PlayStation, but both Sega's Saturn and Nintendo's 64 had strong sales. It was pretty balanced. *Brazil* : The Saturn would moderately well here,and only counting only legal/locally made sales,it was the leader, since most PlayStation units were either imported or smuggled. The Saturn however,had a high launch price of R$700(when the minimum salary was around R$70),but the price lowered significantly for R$300 when it reached department stores. The warm receiving here(Brazil) was due of Tectoy (Sega's representer here) having a strong foothold already and a strong marketing. Sales could be better if the price point was lower and the console didn't having such a strong anti-piracy protection. Curiosity: between 1998-1999,due to declining sales and Tectoy close to declaring bankruptcy,they decided to stop producing the console locally and directly import Japanese units,only transcoding from NTSC-J (Japan) to PAL-M (Brazil). This means that Brazil was the only other regions to had the white and skeleton Saturns officially launched.
@@hydrochloric007 sadly it was here in here eyes for NA market and EU if it didn’t do well here it was a failure but it blossomed in Brazil and Japan is where it was the most successful. I had to import a lot of the Japanese games just to keep it alive here in my collection. I loved and still love Sega Saturn, reason why i am making my channel slowly an all Saturn Channel.
Dude so this is where they got the green hill music from sss… I love that game, I completed the hunt world, but I got locked out of my Roblox account but hopefully I’ll get it back!
This is so nostalgic man: it reminds me of my toddler years.. Back when there was no drama, no school. It also reminds me of the pandemic. I was big on Michael Jackson at the time, but something about both of these eras are so nostalgic and this song just makes me relive them. Maybe because everything I watched and listened to in those eras were older than the time period except for some things? Who knows but I love this song
@@jgl1003 They took down the channel themselves out of fear because Nintendo was being douchebags about their music. Nintendo has started copyright claiming any OST videos with their music. It's so dumb
@@Aquanex2 Actually, according to their tweet it was deleted for copyright infringement. The irony being that they would've deleted that exact day anyway.
@@Aquanex2 If anything they're the real assholes. Nintendo asked them to take all the videos with their music in it down but they were too lazy and ignorant to do so and they got terminated as a result. I honestly hate them for that, I only used that channel for music from Sega, Capcom, and Konami, but I guess I don't matter and that channel is only important as a Nintendo channel so they gave up instead of just continuing to exist but just not have Nintendo music.
