Which one of these Sonic characters are your favorite?

[@tetsuyatsurugi9250]

Sonic Tails Shadow and Eggman

[@templecatt]

I love them all! my favourites are shadow sonic knuckles and tails I think my favourite is shadow also, where's rouge?

[@SwiftySwoosh]

Sonic. But if I had to choose other than him, Silver would be my favourite.

Is it strange I want a cross over between you, emi, and Natewantstobattle of an epic mash up the 3 hedgehogs main themes that match their characters: Sonic- His theme Shadow- All hail Shadow Silver- Dreams of an abosoltion And add Live and learn and Fly with me, Anyway a work with the 3 best sonic cover artists I know would be a god send. Imagine it coming out when frontiers also does too! It would be legendary! And I have been writing this for 8 minutes… dang…

[@solariix4388]

EmuEmi is collecting sonic superstars like they’re pokemon cards jesus christ

[@raymanfreak7739]

Actually, ironically enough, this sounds like a song that would actually play in Sonic Frontiers telling from the plot we got. I honestly would not mind that at all if that actually happened, because this song honest to God kicks ass, especially with you and Johnny just combining vocals. Fantastic work to the both of you as always!

[@SonicFanon1]

This should have been Sonic Frontiers main vocal theme ngl. It fits the story perfectly in the sense that Crush 40 is Sonic trying save Amy from Cyber Space (should've just been called Cyberspace) and Emi is Amy still searching for Sonic within the confinements of Cyber Space. Amazing work!

[@DemonDethchase]

The bar has been raised, much in the same way the radio drama - Sonic and Tails R - raised the bar pretty high for what a Sonic story should be compared to the Meta Era.

[@grumpygamer6425]

This song wouldn’t fit the vibe of sonic frontiers at all in my opinion.

The song is literally speaking to me right now. Right now im starting to lose my love and taste for video game music and Sonic Music in general. I was legit so afraid I would lose sonic and video game ost's so that I can listen to other music production mainstream garbage. The phrase "Bring You Back To Me" and the rest of the lyrics is literally speaking to me like: "Hey, You May be growing out of me now, but at some point, You're gonna return back and love what's in store for ya!" And "live life fast" is like Sonic saying to me that I can leave and move on and inspiring me to do the best I can.
