The song is called Main Theme because you can clearly hear the original NES Theme on it, but a much more evolved version.

Not sure what any of this means but I’m intrigued

funnily enough, E, A, and D are the most common keys used in rock music.

2:21 knock knock its knuckles on the jungle mushrooms

9:32 sick beat

2:18 biolizard

1:48 spiderman

that double time shit slaps harder than a latina mom with a flip flop

that chord progression uses circle of fourths i just realised

0:48 Flying 🔋 🪫battery

3:30 dorio

I like

This song plays in my head sometimes when I think of crazy people. Or when I feel crazy, myself.

You triggered me with that ghost sound bro.

Loved this video, so many fond memories playing it. YotD soundtrack is seared into my brain. Thanks for this vid it was awesome learning the theory behind!

I never thought too deeply about music theory, very interesting watch.

it starts with this a music theroy video containing THE ULTIMATE LIFEFORM

That kick in death egg Is hard hard for real❤

I get that in another reply you explained that the Generations US track didn't exactly matter due to being an unlockable song, but the way you talked about the Bad Future in both instances of Modern Sonic remixes (i.e. "Generations didn't remix any US tracks" and "Forces is the only game that ever referenced the US soundtrack" (Made worse by the fact you mentioned Generations AGAIN when leading into the Metal Sonic fight)) feels like you outright ignored the fact it even existed entirely. In fact, it almost feels like misinformation for the unknowing the way it was worded. I still enjoyed the video, and your opinion on the US tracks are as valid as any opinion, and I know you never mentioned other Generations side remixes, but the straight denial of the track's existence stuck out like a sore thumb.

14:36 HE SAID THE THING 😭

Great video, really enjoyed watching, just wouldve prefered more of the OG tracks

Looks like Oil Ocean Zone in the background, possibly hinting at your next breakdown? Obviously im a couple years late but that wouldve been cool if you did hints like that in the end for the next video idea.

Angel Island is probably one of the only game levels that uses major and minor key to display emotions and a thematic experience.

Sky Sanctuary has one of the nest tracks on the Genesis IMO

Thank you for sharing 😊

Crazy theory here: The JP soundtrack is how Sonic sees the levels, and the US (save for the past) is how the level atmosphere actually is

This was my favorite time trial level in Sonic 3. I do wish Sonic 3 had a more full multiplayer like Sonic 2 did, nobody ever wanted to do the time trials vs

4:18 yes, with a tape recorder even

Isn't most of the gameplay footage from Sonic Mania?

Idk why but I hear the feedback as a D (i.e the 2.) idk if it's just me or my headphones or what if is.

2:32 I remember when someone pointed this out on Carpathia’s deconstruction video and I had a hard time hearing the resemblance. This video definitely made it more noticeable.

0:36 This note structure is a common thing in Sonic CD. It’s present in almost all the zones.

Carpathia is the unsung hero of these Sonic music videos. He helps people learn other melodies in these themes that are normally not heard in regular gameplay.

0:05 Had me on the floor 😂

Howard Drossin is the 16-bit GOAT. All his stuff is so funky or catchy or vibey.

oh my he used sonic 3 air footage

I have no idea what any of this means, but Windmill Isle has amazing music.

So let me get this straight. Beethoven didn't actually compose the Diabelli variations? Bach didn't compose the Musical Offering? Are you sure you understand what composers do?

15:26 wait, but since the melody is similar to Rusty Ruins (even having almost same atmosphere), does it's mean that 3D Blast is the mother?

The isle o' hags soundtrack has lived in my head rent-free for years.

Best multiplayer battle was Sonic 2 and Sonic Adventure 2. Sonic 3’s battle just wasn’t good. Change my mind.

but, WHY does 7 specifically produce this effect? i get that returning to the tonic sounds releasing and happy. but 7 is the opposite of 1, so shouldn't 7 sound angry? if it returned to the angry note, what would that number be? 5? why? what's the correlation? I understand there's math to the music, i understand the music itself, i don't understand the *connection being made here*. it feels so arbitrary! where's the logic that brings the math and art together? youre giving examples as if i don't believe you. its not that i think youre wrong, i just want to understand the actual reasoning behind the facts.

“They in charge now.” 😐

Two months later and this video is still hilarious. What a fall from grace

Please do more Mario song content! This was fantastic!
