[@megamandrn001]

To this day SA2 is one of the only games I've ever seen where each playable character has not only their own voiced theme, but their own musical genre that is used as their character identification. It might be the best soundtrack of all time.

[@_SSCJ]

Definitely one of Sonic’s best. It’s in top 5 for me.

[@michaellaporte4951]

It's one of the things that's always stuck with me most and one I'm surprised I haven't seen again, even from series that do use a lot of vocal tracks.

He ended on Tails' last level theme... meaning we'll be getting Knuckles raps first thing next stream. Brace yourselves, everyone!

[@sirishunter9820]

Exciting! And very fitting that next stream will start with “this is Knuckles, and I’m back!”

[@33pandagamer]

The sad thing is, a lot of people don't even give Sonic music a chance, their like "oh its just video game music" and think thats all Sonic music is. They act like all video game music is 8-bit or is very basic and not well written. They aren't even willing to give it a chance and automatically assume it's bad.

[@DubiousDepthsRadio]

OMG OMG OMG OMG I thought I'll wait for eternity Thank youuu so much for reacting to this soundtrack And I'm excited for unleashed soon too And sonic cd!!! Hehe

[@ieatatsonic]

The thing I love about SA2's soundtrack is that each character has their own music stylings, adding to their sense of identity. Sonic has the typical "butt rock" people associate with the adventure games while Tails' is a lot more melodic. Knuckles' rap is pretty self-evident.

[@FSAPOJake]

46:17 The vocalist of this song, Ted Poley, is famous for his work in the 80s glam metal band, Danger Danger. Your analysis is accidentally spot-on 😅

[@yoshistar705connormiller9]

[@krisisgod666]

Maybe add a “2” in the title😅 This is Sonic Adventure 2’s ost. I was SO confused😂 “I thought he reacted to SA1’s ost already!?”😵‍💫

[@sugarpsycho]

Been waiting for this since you did the first. Sonic games seriously have some of the best music in gaming. Even the bad games have killer soundtracks.

[@jagerzaku9160]

FINALLY MORE SONIC. BEST VIDEO GAME MUSIC BAR NONE!!!

IM SO EXCITED FOR DAN TO HEAR ROUGES BOSSA NOVA TRACKS AAAA

[@Lexical_Archive]

Sonic is great. Not the first game I played, but close. 1. Mario (Sunshine), 2. Zelda (Wind Waker), and 3. Sonic (Adventure) were the first games I ever played (between 5 and 8 years old).

[@derpkipper]

25:33 OMG THOSE FUNK CHORDS SOUND SO GOOD YESSS OMG I'M SO PUMPED

[@Heathenshalt]

It was a fun stream i attended with you dan. The upcoming music for team dark youll probably find a lot more interesting though. Certainly i do. Checking these out mainly because sonic adventure 1 was my favorite soundtrack as a kid and was seminal along with f zero x guitar arrange in making me become a musician and a songwriter, and now, a church pianist. And its just trippy for me because this stuff was so new and exciting when i was a kid, i mean it was the bees knees, and now its a collectors item, its outdated technology. Yet to me the gamecube still feels newer than every console that came after it. Ive been on the fence about making some games that would do the same thing for kids today. I have pretty much no experience with it, but maybe with the right pitch, the right cash, and the right devs, something can happen

[@J2ojuiced95]

SA2’s soundtrack is a classic. Jun Senoue, Fumie Kumatani, Kenichi Tokoi and Tomoya Ohtani went all out, as with Sega’s fall from a 1st party publisher, it felt like it could have been the last Sonic game. Shame about all the technical difficulties, hopefully next stream is better.

[@ericestrada3530]

Oh man I would've loved to see this live, Sonic Adventure 2 Battle was a huge part of my childhood! Can't wait to get home and watch your reaction to every song 😁

Sonic the Hedgehog 2 for the Sega Genesis was my first video game ever! At the age of 4.

[@Rubberman202]

[@OhThatRobin]

49:02 I don’t know if it was the first game I ever played, but Sonic Adventure was the first game I ever had on my first console the Dreamcast ^^

[@joshshrum2764]

I’m not sure what was my first probably adventure.

[@lovingfool2060]

special shoutout to my favorite theme SA2, supporting me since it didnt see to get covered in this stream keep a ear out during it cause it actually has a fun semi hidden live and learn prelude rift in its synph organs

[@joshshrum2764]

I really love that aspect of the song since i just discovered it as a adult but it really fits since it’s like it’s being suppressed under pressure and it doesn’t come out till the 2nd form because by then that has been lifted and there’s hope that Sonic and shadow can win and save the day so there’s no need for despair, and dark and final story should be in part 2 so he will make that connection with supporting me. “I KNOW MY FUTURE IT WAS MY PLACE TO LIVE BUT NOW I NEED YOUR HEEEELLLPP I PREPARED THIS DISGUSTING AIR OF DARKNESS TO THIS PRESSURE I NEVER LOSE OUT BUT I WILL BE LOSING YOU BEFORE LONGGGGGGG. I honestly hear the lyrics like that.

[@qman6834]

Sonic the Hedgehog on Genesis was the first video game I played. I think I was 3 years old and played it at my day care.

[@thenonexistinghero]

I just wanted to skim through this for all of the good songs. But almost all of the songs are the good songs so I ended up watching most...

The guitar riff in Green Forest at 59:50 sounds just like the riff in the breakdown of the Offspring song Americana (2:33 in that song), only in a different key. Americana came out in 1998, around when SA2 was starting development, and the Offspring were pretty popular in Japan :]

I mean, the important thing about “it doesn’t matter” on the SA2 soundtrack is that it’s a slightly worse version of the song from the original Sonic Adventure lol. Well, in my opinion anyway… I guess I never got into that ska punk type style or whatever it is… Oh well, it’s not like this version is bad either way.

47:48 The first Sonic game I ever played was Mario and Sonic at the London Olympic Games. That being said though, Sonic Adventure 2 is what taught me that video games can be amazing tools for storytelling.

[@jacobtrost5048]

When I got my first ever console for Christmas, it was a Gamecube, and the first game I opened was Sonic Adventure 2 Battle. Objectively a very flawed game, but will always be one of my favorites because it was all I played for like half a year straight.

[@yy90716]

The way he ignored his chat for 10+minutes when he was muted.....

[@Hiushisan]

My first Sonic experience is a very clear memory for me as well. My mom, older brother and myself were out garage sale-ing, and we got to one sale that had a Sega genesis for sale. We, being kids at the time, wanted to get it. The guy having the sale offered to hook up the system right there in the driveway to make sure it worked, and the game he started up for us to try, was Sonic 2. We've been huge fans ever since. We probably still have that exact cartridge, but I have no way of telling it apart from any other copy we might have gotten over the years. Still one of my absolute favorite Sonic games. (And unpopular opinion, but Emerald Hill is better than Green Hill.)

[@lloydnorval1989]

32:14 Eggman... Now i can imagine Jim Carrey having this theme tune in the movies ❤

[@ppvsonicspy]

4. First game I ever played was Sonic Adventure 1 on the first console I ever owned, the Dreamcast. I was 4 years old too ironically. I still remember vividly like it was yesterday, I always played until the second level and always started over from the beginning because my parents didn't know they also had to buy the VMU so I could store my saved games 😂. Another game I played alot on my Dreamcast was Rayman 2.

[@Senseiaudi]

It don’t matter how good the game was or how bad the game was every single sonic game from 91 has the best music outta any video game

[@firestar01234]

If there was one game I'd be interested in seeing you react to and recommend watching, it would be Star Soldier: Vanashing Earth. It's a niche space shooter game that most probably don't think about but has wonderful music in my opinion! In terms of length it has about a similar amount of songs to Sonic 1. About 20 songs and jingles. Loved seeing this video as SA2 has lots of beautiful music. Theme that plays during the final cutscene always strike me strongly every time.

[@PhirePhlame]

A funny thing about _Let's Make It_ is that it very much does NOT sound like that in the game itself. Yep, the soundtrack version's very different. The in-game version starts off with just the bassline and builds up to the full band coming in at the third section (when Sonic finally emerges). If you're interested in this type of thing, while I think _Let's Make It_ is the most drastic case of this, there's other smatterings of divergence between the in-game songs and their soundtrack CD counterparts as well. Another example being that _Escape From The City_ only has the "whew...oh yeah" on the soundtrack CD, not in the game.

[@puddin_hun1179]

Easily the best Sonic Music to happen in the Series. Eggman and Fly in the Freedom are top notch themes for Dr. Robotnik & Rouge the Bat. But always Remember that in SA2, Eggman Pissed on the Moon!

[@derpkipper]

Bossa nova = rouge. She is latina coded. You cannot convince me otherwise
