Best Sonic Vocal Theme Bracket

[@dracocrusher]

Something people forget all the time is that in SA2, Shadow is actually the bad guy. He's an agent of Gerald Robotnik's will, he's manipulating Eggman to complete Gerald's plan to destroy the world, and he is 100% motivated by nihilism and a desire for revenge against humanity. So when you hear Throw it All Away, it makes complete sense because it feels dark, it FEELS sinister, right? Shadow is this mysterious threat with his own motives and while you get those flashes of humanity in him, for most of the game he's determined to keep things going and destroy the world. It's only when Amy gets through to him after the final stages that he changes his mind and decides that humans are worth saving after all.

[@joshshrum2764]

Yeah i know it’s why i love adventure 2 that dark undertone to so much, and shadow becoming good to fight with Sonic is dope, and it’s like after falling from space shadow is never really his peak again, and honestly he never reached those heights again funny since he fell from very high lol.

[@BattleCatSmoothie]

its peak edge, AMAZING for me and the other angsty teens.

[@omicron3012]

Yeah I don’t understand on which criteria they rank these songs. Is it for how well they fit their particular character, level, boss fight, cutscene or is it just for the mindless fun it gives when it comes up in your playlist? If it was the former, Throw it all away would have ranked much higher, it’s peak Shadow characterization... Oh well.

Also DOAA references Green Hill (at about 50 seconds in), which NO OTHER VOCAL TRACK DOES FOR SOME REASON, so that gives the song some bonus points in my book

I don't know. A New Venture just by its first notes captures me. Dreams is a song I really like, especially the chorus but I think what comes after the last repeat of the chorus just makes me kinda want to shut it off. That's like at least 45 full seconds of dead air.

I feel the My Sweet Passion slander is unwarranted. It's a perfect representation of Amy's stalker era in the sonic franchise, and the sphinx line isn't as bad as everyone thinks it is (since when is sphinx used as an innuendo anyway?). The point is Amy is obsessed with Sonic and wants him to notice her, thus anything else cute in close proximity to her she sees as a threat. If there's a cute cat nearby, she's going to shave it to make it look ugly compared to her. The fact that a sphinx is a hairless cat, and the fact that she'd still go out of her way to shave it and make it look uglier just shows how obsessed she is with attracting sonic's attention.

[@AripopAnimates]

Underrated banger tbh

[@codified_]

Undefeatable is very important to me, I get why you prefer other songs, but I'd say it is my favorite Frontiers song, so I morally must leave an essay about why it matters to me, enjoy! It starts with a bit of the chorus in a calmer note, only to jump into the hard instrumental to really hit you in the gut, and that intro is priceless, it really drives home that theese fights are gonna be the best ever But that is only the beginning, the chorus itself has some powerful lyrics, with added meaning when applied to the franchise in the same way as One Way Dream: "It's time to face your fear, 'cause when your time has come and gone, I'll be the one to carry on, and you can throw me to the wolves, because I'm undefeatable", "I'm hanging on to the other side, I won't give up till the end of me" such a display of, again, confidence, knowing that they must fight what they need to finally stand proud of themselves again But to me, the best part, and the one that really got me emotionally, is the ending. Listen to the song again, it starts, right after that beginning I talked about earlier, saying: "Welcome to the mind of a different kind, where we've been growing slowly. Think I'm on 11 but I'm on a 9, guess you don't really know me. Running from the past is a losing game, it never brings you glory, been down this road before, already know the story" Really think about what it's saying, it's the first proper full lyrics of the song, and it is telling you that from here on out, they have changed, they won't fall again, they are giving it their all, and this is only the beginning To end this song, they could have ended with a bang by repeating the chorus, they could have made other lyrics, but no, THEY WENT BACK TO THE FIRST FULL LYRICS AND DID THEM AGAIN, the same lyrics that talk about where we came from and where we are headed, but now it's different, they said that at the start as a form of explosive passion, but here, in these final moments of the song, they bring it down to say it, a much lighter tone, almost like they made the declaration at the start, and here, in the end, it's now a promise: "Welcome to the mind of a different kind, where we've been growing slowly", it may take time, but we are always trying to be the best we can possibly be "Think I'm on 11 but I'm on a 9, guess you don't really know me", you thought we were giving it MORE than we could (11/10), but no, we still have WAY MORE to give (9/10), and just you wait for what we can do "Running from the past is a losing game, it never brings you glory", as a way of making clear that they know that everything they did is now a part of their history, but hiding it is no good "Been down that road before, already know the story", literally everything they have said with this, now they know, after a lot of time of not knowing, their minds are clear, and the future is as bright as ever Sorry for this long essay, but when I have something to say I want to say it as I feel I should, and Undefeatable is top 5 of the entire franchise for me AT THE VERY LEAST (I have never made a song tierlist so I don't know specifically), maybe competing with His World and Endless Possibility

[@gabrieliuszalp7974]

It is always fun to see when someone is passionate about something. You shouldn't be sorry for writing this long essay, you shouldn't be scared about sharing your passion with people. If other people don't care about this stuff then they will just ignore it. And besides, it's not like it's gonna scare anyone away (except the hoes).

[@joshshrum2764]

I like this video idea but too many frontiers songs especially because i don’t know then,

In addition, many have theorized that it fits the meta narrative of how sonic has been throughout the ages, sonic used to be in a VERY dark place, and Frontiers is breaking that away. It very much emphasizes with the current state of sonic post frontiers.

Shoutout to His World and it’s 7 versions. Specifically the Zebrahead V2, to me that’s the Sonic song that has stuck with me the most since I’ve heard it. I’d also say it has one of the best guitar solos in Sonic alongside Find Your Flame and Endless Possibilities.

[@castform7]

I'm not even joking when I say them using the OG version made the matchups it had fair. If it were the Zebrahead version, it damn near clears for me. I love that version so much.

[@RanchHog]

His World for me is more then just a song. When I hear it all I can see in my mind IS Sonic! His World isn’t just a theme for Sonic, but his Anthem. This song IS SONIC through and through. This song reminds me of why I love Sonic and His World he lives in.

[@JMotion]

It's always been my headcanon that the Team Chaotix theme song is an actual in-universe theme song for a reality show about their detective agency. Which is really funny, because Sonic Boom straight up probed my brain and stole that idea for an entire episode of their TV show.

I know that 'I'm Here' wasn't that great, but I'm surprised that the Revisited version wasn't talked about since that version SLAPS. Like, it's my favorite song in Frontiers. Also, Let the Speed Mend it is so good! I wish it was on this bracket.

[@possibly_ben]

the revisited version is better overall, but merry kirk-holmes' vocals faaaaar outdo kellin quinn's imo

[@titan1umtitan]

I like the revisited version, but I feel the mix for the boss is better. I feel the base revisited ruins it by overshadowing the lyrics with the instrumental. It loses the impact and severity it once had. Before, Sonic knew he could beat the Titans, but now, he knows it's a proper challenge, he knows he's running out of time, and that's what gives it the added impact. Still great either way but I feel the original does the original intent justice, while the revisit boss mix gives it that proper boss feel for phase 2

[@ReitheOffbeatOtaku]

I’m Here instantly losing to the _SA1_ version of It Doesn’t Matter is actually such a nostalgia-blinded take it’s crazy 💀 Highkey I think everyone is sleeping on I’m Here in general; the blend of orchestral and metal instrumentals on that song is just breathtaking, and I think that blend works really well as a main theme for Frontiers, as it bridges the gap between the Titan themes and the island themes. (The idea of One-Way Dream being a better song for the Supreme fight is also just a wild take imo.) Anyway, banger video, I just had to stand up for I’m Here, because I love it just as much as the other Titan themes and it feels like I’m alone in that opinion, lol.

[@Reset2150676]

[@possibly_ben]

i just prefer it doesn't matter's theme of "i'm free but aimless, so for as long as i can, i'll keep moving for my own sake, until i, one day, find my way" over the general triumphant feeling given off by i'm here i strongly relate to it as someone moving into adulthood, and frankly, i don't really feel like there's anything in my life to celebrate right now, so i'm here also falls a little flat in that aspect, not saying it's a bad song or anything, it's great after working out so hard you can barely walk straight

[@ReitheOffbeatOtaku]

@@possibly_ben You know, that’s a fair argument. It Doesn’t Matter’s lyrics do suffer from the translation from Japanese to English that all the SA1 songs had, especially before it got streamlined for the SA2 version, but they and the general idea of the song are still interesting enough that I can see why they’d still carry a lot of meaning for someone and make it one of their favs, even if the song is a bit messy in its writing and construction.

[@Chibiknux]

I completely wholeheartedly agree. It doesn't matter version 1 instrumental and singing voice are sooo dated. Version 2 has a californian 2000 punk that just fit Sonic, but version 1 is so butt rock I never let it play when I'm surrounded by non Sonic fans

[@arcane1012]

Genuinely felt insanely slighted even with sonic adventure being among the first sonic games I played as a kid. It's great and all but like... Even if it ends a bit too abruptly, it's the real first signal that something is different with Sonic Frontiers. The titan boss themes hit as hard if not harder than a lot of the older final boss themes, and I think about everything they say about said themes is spot on, (even if find your flame was just straight up omitted and bare minimum it is on par with break through it all) but I'm Here is like the first step that leads into the near victory song that is One Way Dream, announcing a hopeful but hesitant leap into a new era that, if we're lucky, will stick the landing properly. Like It doesn't matter is pretty definitively sonic, but I'm here feels, on top of that, definitively Sonic Team.

I didnt' see any mention of the Sonic Symphony during One Way Dream - so I'm not sure when it was when you guys went, but only in the past couple of months, the lead singer for the concerts Ty Christian had explained to the crowd that One Way Dream was his most favorite song and was disappointed it was not in the setlist. They ended up working with Tomoya to rearrange the entire song to play as an acoustic encore. It makes it so much more emotional and hard-hitting, I honestly wish they did a studio recording of it. Before I went to the Sonic Symphony in June, I had never heard of any of the songs from Sonic Frontiers because I had been distant from the sonic community since Forces. Hearing their arrangement of One Way Dream (my first time listening to the song) made me bawl where I stood, and hearing it over and over always gives me goosebumps and makes me emotional.

I didn't see it at all, but my favorite song from the Sonic Franchise is actually "Supporting Me" from Sonic Adventure 2. I'm surprised it wasn't on the list. I'm actually pretty hype to listen to the full version of the Sonic X Shadow Generations remix of it. The Trailer sounded great. Just something about the lyrics and the beat works for me, and making it metal can only make it better!

[@TheRealTailsAndFriends]

Find Your Flame is so underrated mam, its one of the best in the game 😭😭😭

[@llulabeee]

I’m going to the sonic symphony in a week and I am totally using this video to make sure I don’t miss any of the vocal tracks lmao. The mentions of the symphony give me a good idea of what’s there without spoiling it

[@saigesmart4167]

Love the vid but whoever seeded Can you feel the sunshine vs Sonic Heroes ROUND ONE needs to be tried for international war crimes

[@bigfudge2031]

Can't believe "Never Turn Back" didn't even make the list

[@PieStudios]

Can confirm, Chaomix was screaming Fist Bump in my ear at the Ohio symphony lol

[@AppleIsDoingFine]

I am all of me vs endless possibility Shadow's theme vs Sonics theme perfect matchup (also endless possibilities is the most underrated sonic song, its litteartly sonics character made into a song its so damn good)

[@KOTEBANAROT]

Knight of the wind bodies both and we all know it.

[@MariposaDeMedianoche]

Where is back in time? I love that song so much, bro 😭

[@AripopAnimates]

I’m actually so happy Believe in Myself made it as far as it did

[@treesap9789]

I find the matchup of Knight of The Wind and It Doesn’t Matter very interesting, because in a way both of the two perfectly complement the other in a way that’s sort of perfect despite the differences in both (one is mainline the other a side game, one is very late 2000s while the other is very early, the time gap, etc.). It’s likely because both songs perfectly describe sonics ideology in two completely different wholes; it doesn’t matter was intriguing because it was describing Sonic’s internal thought process on how he lives day-by-day and handles conflicts by stating that he practically lives for them. He cares little for who’s wrong or right, nor for whatever might happen later. He takes it all as it comes and uses them to live his life to the fullest. IDM paints the picture that sonic has a very “live and let live” type of feeling and embraces the freedom he has been granted, but KOTW expresses his ideology towards others when their freedom is threatened. It’s important to understand that, if you played Sonic and the Black Knight, knight of the wind is a title that suggests a knight with no master, one who follows the wind, thus why he is referred to as such during the game. The song, however, expands upon this by implementing Sonic’s ideology, by saying that “each and everyone is the knight of the wind”. Sonic believes everyone has their freedom and can be as free as him, suggesting that they also have the power to do so with lyrics in the song.

Bro i was that kid obessed with the tails doll creepypasta, Can you feel the sunshine will forever be in my top 10 sonic tracks

[@an_ancient_architect2889]

I gotta say that Endless Possibility is the best song for me. If you asked me to live my life to any song in existence, it would be Endless Possibility.

[@RiedlerMusics]

you sly dog got me listening to so many sonic songs …my music playlist got just a bit bigger xD

[@RandommBoyo]

THE SONIC ADVENTURE BIAS IS REAL, ALSO BRO, 2 "BELIEVE IN YOURSELF" BUT NO "FIND YOUR FLAME", WHAT THE FUCK? also also great to know it's not just me thinking about Scott The Woz intro when hearing Knight of the Wind lmfao

[@OrangeOcto]

3:32 “Baby making music” is a wild choice of words 💀

[@whirlpooltunes]

Nah they're right

[@theinfinitybones]

No one hates Sonic games more than Sonic fans.

[@sadboijokes]

I think for as amazing as I found the game as a long time Sonic fan LONGING for the series to take itself seriously again, it was super duper flawed. But flawed in a way where I feel like it can be improved upon in a very significant way.

[@titan1umtitan]

@@sadboijokes Exactly. It wasn't actually a bad game, it was alright and enjoyable, it just isn't perfect, but also offers the ability to improve as well as proving to sega that it's worth the time to do so.

I need a part 2 with “supporting me” aka biolizard theme from SA2

[@Deltarious]

This is great because music is *so* subjective you're almost never going to get people to agree on it

[@RotcodFox]

I love Break Through It All, HOWEVER the fact that they prefer it over Undefeatable is absolutely CRIMINAL. I almost removed my like because of this

[@elmemearana]

It's much better than Undefeatable too, imo. Maybe it's because I really love the screamo parts and the drums, but that song is just absolutely *peaking* perfect.

[@beatziegraham6928]

I kinda wish there were more obscure picks though. Like the vocal level things from Sonic And The Secret Rings or the other ending themes that (for some reason) nobody likes from Shadow The Hedgehog like Almost Dead, Waking Up, and The Chosen One. All great songs that get no respect or love! (Maybe if we get a sequel video.)

[@alexandrecaldeira9563]

There's a reason Almost Dead gets no love but everything else you said I agree with

[@wallaceprower]

yeah the tricky part is just how many iconic songs from the franchise there are. I didn’t want the video to be too long but man there are some underrated gems i wish i could’ve squeezed in but just didn’t have the room for

[@beatziegraham6928]

@@wallaceprower it’s cool. Again, maybe down the road the vid gets a sequel. So many underrated songs deserve more love.

[@REMspEEDfreaxx]

34:02 Undefeatable is this generation’s “Live and Learn”- Who agrees with me?!!!

Hot takes: With me should've been in this video, With Me > Knight of the Wind and With Me should've been in the Sonic Symphony

[@rosalinabloom2567]

Ya know I was gonna make a joke about this being objectively wrong, but honestly the fact that it’s so controversial I think goes to show how good Sonic Music is and the fact that most of these are peak. (Also RIP Dreams of an Absolution and Endless Possibilities.)

[@thedontpanic]

A New Venture (and by proxy Sonic Rush Adventure) getting its flowers in this video spoke to me. I love that OST a lot, and it is just so underrated. Seeing it in this video at all was a treat, but truly a surprise to see it win a round!

[@ShinDSER]

Sonic Boom vs His World could have been the final, absolutely GOATed

Bro, you played the wrong version of Dreams of an Absolution! You should’ve played the LB vs. JS remix. That remix just makes me wanna freaking dance!

[@TheCursedAlchemist64]

this is exactly what i said while watching this LOL it's the best version of the song!!!

I hope the Titan themes and I'm Here got a bunch of Sonic fans into metalcore. Edit: One Way Dream beating Undefeatable is the worst thing I've ever seen.

[@pokepress]

I don’t care if you only considered songs from games. “Fastest Thing Alive” from SatAM is objectively the correct answer.
