Angels With Burning Hearts - Burning Rangers (English version)

Main theme from Burning Rangers (English version)
Music by: Naofumi Hataya
Vocals by: Dennis St. James
Lyrics:
Glow of the past we deliver to the future land
For the growing world of tomorrow we strive
Passing through the matrix of data
Driving you into the cyber dive
Even when you are lost in the darkness
You must believe in tomorrow, it will come
Just like angels with burning hearts
We'll face the risk of lives
Sight of night I cheer to embrace a magic
Visions displayed on the monitors
Can you see the moon and the stars and the sun?
Could they be in our imagination?
Sight of night I cheer to embrace the magic
Starting an adventure for our future
We are all hoping for
Setting out you need us to new the universe
Burning Rangers! To the brand new sky we dive
Burning Rangers! Wings we have of shining white
Burning Rangers! Aquamarine colored sky
Fly high! With grace and pride
Burning Rangers! We're gonna make it all right
Burning Rangers! Dreams of people we're powered by
Burning Rangers! Running at the speed of light
Just do it!
Just Burning Rangers
Don't you feel like you just lost your way
We're always watching over you
Dreams are kept in a secret place
Cradles rocking with love
Sometime a piece of our dream could fall off
Together we can make everything right
Just like angels with burning hearts
We'll face the risk of our lives
Sight of night I cheer to embrace the magic
Melody from the distance can't you hear it?
Like the song of an angel with a tear in her eyes
With an affection of her guardian
Sight of night I cheer to embrace the magic
Starting an adventure for our future
We are all hoping for
Setting out you need us to the new universe
Burning Rangers! Shining through the starry night
Burning Rangers! We'll always stay by your side
Burning Rangers! Knights under a soft moonlight
Fly high! With grace and pride
Burning Rangers! We're gonna make it all right
Burning Rangers! For the dream of ours we must try
Burning Rangers! Keep this hope of ours alive
Just do it!
Just Burning Rangers
Burning Rangers! To the brand new sky we dive
Burning Rangers! Wings we have of shining white
Burning Rangers! Aquamarine colored sky
Fly high! With grace and pride
Burning Rangers! We're gonna make it all right
Burning Rangers! Dreams of people we're powered by
Burning Rangers! Running at the speed of light
Just do it!
Just Burning Rangers

They really need to start making unironically hopeful and positive feeling soundtracks like this for video games again, far too many generic cinematic ambience tracks and depressing songs these days. You get a few happy soundtracks here and there with newer titles but usually in the wacky and ironic style. The Sega Sound Collections really made me realise just how much we're missing with modern OSTs.

[@Hlusive]

Thats one thing Sega will never get wrong there sound tracks no matter the go.Its always so uplifting and complete moody charger im really gald to have been introduced to these great classics

[@etenby699]

You might want to look up the Vitamin Connection soundtrack. It's very positive. Edit:Also Balan Wonderworld OST holy carp. Maybe Mighty Switch Force 2. I might add others.

[@OhKayEl]

Nah, edgelords will complain about it being too "cheesy".

[@VenomSnakeMGS]

A somewhat recent game, Neo: The World Ends With You has a very good soundtrack.

[@Jokoko2828]

@@OhKayEl MGR was cheesy as fuck though.

[@sonicclub1]

This is still one of the best songs ever composed. Literally timeless.

[@CrossTheShadow]

japanese and English both managed to be the best

"Like the song of an angel with a tear in her eye and an affection for her guardian"

[@macnchillidogs1601]

I know cheesy as hell, but still fire

[@-Minuano-]

The song (both English and Japanese) is just too much. I’m crying, it’s too beautiful. There’s not a single day where I don’t hum this song to myself. It’s permanently beaten into my head.

[@pokemaniactim]

Same here. Ever since I heard the Japanese version on Phantasy Star Online on gamecube I was hooked.

[@jakescartoons6045]

I just noticed that the singer for this was Dennis St. James, the same guy who performed the music for "Daytona USA 2: Battle on the Edge"! That's awesome, especially considering the fact that the Japanese singer was Takenobu Mitsuyoshi!

[@tetsuyatsurugi9250]

Takenobu did his English ver too

[@mslabo102s2]

Now Mitsuyoshi's got his English version in PSO2 JP

[@Kirbychu1]

So much soul...

[@juzington]

[@SenAkari]

I still remember hearing this song for the first time randomly in Phantasy Star Portable 2's online mode in someone's room. Myself and 3 others spent like 30 minutes dancing to this song...aha it feels incredibly nostalgic listening to this again

[@asra-5180]

There's even a singleplayer quest involving two songs from this game lol. Both Japanese though.

[@theprimerib]

Gotta give credit where credit is due, It has to be hard as hell to sing these lyrics that convincingly

[@googletarded8300]

Wow, what a rare case of an English company not going full "Rock the Dragon". I like that.

[@LittleBigKid707b]

I instantly came here after hearing the Project X Zone 2 remix of this theme. I'm currently suffering of Nostalgia Overload

[@karbengo]

[@DanielAyy]

Yes please

[@officialFredDurstfanclub]

I literally played this song over and over again while playing Project x Zone 2, Chapter 28: Angels with Burning Hearts" Now that just sets you ablaze.

[@ravenshotred]

My room in phantasy star universe always had this blasting

[@soiralknarf]

This is the best thing I have ever heard.

[@victorsandeen2694]

It's some good shit.

[@jeanlundi2141]

YOU'RE cheesy.

[@pcguy619]

It's so hype and the singing is close enough to chaos that it doesn't sound too cheesy.

[@frankwhite2072]

This slaps so hard.

[@pielord928]

This song seems even more rediculouse now that I know it's literally about futuristic fire fighters in a futuristic society where we apparently can't prevent fires anymore.

[@deathstinger13]

dunno, fires break out all the time irl too. And just because you see the fires that couldn't be suppressed doesn't mean there isn't suppression at all. That's Survivorship Bias,

[@ShadowDurza]

I thinking its more like that coflagrations are the ONLY danger that they haven't figured out how to 100% prevent. They have to face them directly to mitigate the harm. I mean, statistically, fires can happen anywhere, anytime, for any reason. Most other disasters can at least be predicted with an extremely respectable margin of error.

[@jaimemazusferreira4632]

A song Powerful enought to stay "alive" forever

[@epicshot2000]

Both versions are great!

[@GalaxyStandard77]

This song brings tears to my eyes, its the swan song for the Sega Saturn and Sega in general. I miss you Sega.

[@rodoromero]

I think I've recalled hearing this game's name, but didn't know what it was back when it released. Now while playing Project X Zone 2, an instrumental version of this song came up and it was kind of awesome and weird. I researched and this came up. Awesome hehe.

[@thesadmusicboy]

This guy sang the DAYTONA USA 2 OST too wow... I've never heard this version before...

[@HKT-4300]

It just never gets old.

someone like me, I don't like the changes in the song, no chorus, changes in melodie, and I don't like the voice compared to the japanase version, it's not like "dislike 'cos is bad" is more "dislike 'cos I don't like it"
