Escape From The City (4000 Subscriber Special) - dBPony

[@1995Jamar]

Now I've never played Sonic Adventure 2, but somehow I knew it was Sonic when I first heard this song.

[@jarvyjared8543]

***** Probably because this song can be linked to anything Sonic related.

[@sonicthehedgehog1532]

Probably from the beginning "rolling around at the speed of sound"

[@AustinOnSugar]

This is essentially what sets you apart from my other favorite vocalists in creative media: you have a certain energy to your voice that's really projected into your work, and I honestly can't get enough of it. If I had to say, it's not that your voice is flawless, but I almost like the risky take you have over the more straightforward "better" works, like the original of this song. You find a way to get us, the listener, behind your enthusiasm in a way I just can't find with most singers.

[@227akasika]

Hey, dB, You're quickly becoming my hero. Amazing artistic talent, amazing singing talent and amazing musical talent. I'd like you to know that you have inspired me to try some of the things you're amazing at for myself. Thank you dB.

[@TheKingLunar]

Never heard of you before, but you covered Escape From The City so instant subscribe. Now, off on a journey to listen to the rest of your music!

[@fruitlessworship]

Oh, my gosh. You hit me right in the nostalgia man! Love it, keep on the amazing!

Play this song while playing Sonic All Stars: Racing Transformed. Genius!

[@Chillbot17]

i think that putting your character in it doesn't make it worse, just makes it all the more awesome. brings back memories

[@fauxsynder]

Great cover of this song!! And beautiful picture as well~~ What was the inspiration behind choosing this piece to do?

[@calen_chan]

I always thought to my self: "dBPony should make a cover of City Escape, his voice is perfect for it." Well here I am listening to your sexy voice singing it. YURSH!!!!!! :D

[@dbponymusic]

Thanks! It wasn't my intention to compete with the original song though. I only wanted to cover it because it's a fun song to sing. I like how it turned out and I'm pretty happy I could cover a song that held some meaning in my younger days. Also, I'm not going to force the show on you. I love the show, but I'm not going to expect every single person who passes by my songs to like the show as well. I'm happy you cared enough to listen! Thanks again!

[@aarOuOn]

This song is my childhood

[@BigBlackBrony]

Probably the best song on any Sonic game ever. Sonic Adventure Battle 2 was so great and you did this song all of the justice! I hope to become as good as a musician as you one day!

[@cherrypopsicle92]

All I saw was City Escape and right away thought "This is the BEST POSSIBLE THING!" Almost impossible to get better then this song. Nice cover of it.

[@AlexABNORM4L2]

Oh god. I just got chills. This song brings back all the memories I had with that game.

[@Malenrick]

Nostalgia attack intensified by awesome 100x. AMAZING. keep it up dbpony

[@omgukildme]

I love you so much. This is my favourite vocal video game song ever. And with your magic touch: I'm speechless.

[@KaptainSpade]

Oh my god. Dude you are incredible! This was my favorite song ever for like 3 years! Also my favorite level in Sonic. Thank you for making me hear it again!

[@Ephri1]

When two of the best fandoms come together, you get this!

[@cheezy805]

I was about to comment that this sounds very Sonic-y, then I read the description. You did an awesome job on this, dude! I was never a part of the sonic fandom, but I've always loved the games and liked the cartoons. I swear, Sonic music is some of the best VG-style music out there.

[@bestponyisbestpony]

My god...... The nostalgia associated with this song..... My childhood.... It hurts. But in a good way. I'm subscribing just because of this, thank you, and keep up the good work brony. /)

[@SpyroPhantom1]

this is my favorite song in the sonic fandom. THANK YOU DB PONY!

[@StarwardsSkyDash]

Nice one again man. Loyal was right when he said that your voice was really fitting for the energy of your music.

[@DeltaKey911]

This is one of my most favorite songs... Although this is not the BEST version of the song, it is in the top 5. I thank you for the great work you are doing, keep it up!

[@IAmOnFyre]

This is perfect. You put so much passion into this, but the lyrics are still perfectly clear. Well done!

[@MuffinMunchinStudios]

This seriously made my day. And this cover is amazing. Thank you for your music dB!

[@dbponymusic]

Eh this is just a cover to celebrate all of you awesome people listening to my tunes. It's not really pony related aside from the fact that a brony musician covered it. It doesn't/shouldn't be on EQD. Though I appreciate the enthusiastic suggestion and are flattered that you love the tune that much

[@dbponymusic]

WHOA NELLY. BEST COMMENT EVER. But seriously the only reason why there's a pony there is so that people can recognize that it's me who covered the song since my character is iconic to my music. I'm glad that you enjoyed the cover, but losing any enjoyment from the song just because I'm a fan of another cartoon is a bit of a loss on your end.. Still! Glad you were able to find some enjoyment in it, brony or not. We can't all like the same cartoon after all. :) Thanks for listening man!

[@dreadnought771]

I was more of an original Sonic Adventure kid myself, but I still know this song, and I really like this cover! Your music just gets better and better, keep it up! ... Now to click replay...

[@stickit2theman1]

Holy crap! This is awesome! It almost sounds just like the original with better quality than ripping it from the game. Seriously this is the favorite part of the game just because of the music!

[@Catalistic]

My second favorite song on that game, the first one is Live and Learn. Man, you really make me feel nostalgic with this song

[@Shinohamura]

Got linked to you through Mic the Microphone... been on a listening streak of your work. You've earned a subscriber, and you damn well deserve it for the awesome work you do.

[@Sk3tchful]

Are you just made of pure talent or what? I just found your channel and after subscribing I systematically liked, favorited, and downloaded each one of your songs.

[@mrprower]

At first, when I read the title of the song, I instantly remembered of Sonic Adventure 2 and started singing it in my head xD Never thought that it would actually be that song xD Anyways, keep up the great work :3

[@fatninja32]

Holy Hell you randomly appeared in my subscriber uploads and imediatly thought, this is going to be AWSOME

[@Maylu169]

Damn son. I loved the original vocals for this but with you singing it it's even better.

[@DatBronyBassist]

DEAR GOD. THAT BASS RIFF. I LOVE YOU dBPony!

[@mrcattable]

I loved this level on SA2, which is why I'm glad they included it in Generations along whith Chaos City :D

[@ViFFeX]

I love it! The track is awesome! The picture came out amazing as well! Great work dB!

[@Andrew_852]

I grew up and this song was my weekends theme song. This made me

[@LuculentSnow]

I think you just became one of my favorite bronies out there that have created such lovely music!c: (i've listened to a few of your other songs and they are just awesome! Thought i'd add that bit haha~)

[@TaleshicMatera]

When you're awesome, make things that are awesome, and have attracted both Bronies and Sonic fans... I'm surprised it's not higher than 14,000.

[@SonicFan4231]

I friggin' love Sonic Adventure 2, and this cover is amazing. Very well done.

[@FizzieWebb]

This. This song defines Sonic Adventure 2 in my opinion. Not Live and Learn,this song.The first one you hear while playing a stage. And you have just made it so much better. I'd be interested to see your take on the Metal Harbor song but that doesn't have a vocal track.

[@kiradash42]

Oh man oh man, that was a violent sudden shock of nostalgia! Subbed!

[@thatlazycritic1]

this is my favorit song from SA2 (and one of my favorit songs in general) realy great cover man, i cant wait to hear what you put out in the future =)

[@kirbymonbrony7279]

this was my favorite stage/music in the game....THANKS dBPM!

[@lamby587]

Awesome remix! like it better then the original. This song brings back heaps of memories. Sonic Adventure Battle 2 what a awesome game. Doing all those Chao runs in this level.

[@DistortedTruthMusic]

once again you deliver awesome music. i dont care if it's a cover. you stay awesome dBPony

[@CyriltheWolfmusic]

Well, there goes my plan on covering this. Good job man. :)

[@Salvanas42]

I love all your stuff and I especially love how you make all your own cover art.

[@DarkoHexar]

I like this song, even if I'm no Sonic fan. I guess I just really like the positive aura it has!

[@nikita_k0v]

Nice cover. I used to really love Crush 40 once, before I started listening to much heavier music. This was kinds nostalgic.

[@SilverDotytc]

Man, I love you, this game is epic, this cover is awesome, and you are one sub closer to 5k

[@layserboy1]

Seeing one of your songs in the feed was like opening a Christmas present early!

[@dbponymusic]

The singing download is the song as you heard it now. The instrumental download is self explanatory. Thanks a bunch!

[@PHANTOM5NIPER]

Wow you have one of the best singing voices I have ever heard.

[@Sylnic]

So many memories with this song. Awesome cover man!

[@Thunder618onscratch]

After listening to 'Dreams' I thought "hey dBPony's music sounds kind of like SA2". When I saw this I nearly fell out of my chair.

[@CrackedDylMil]

Saw this on sonic radio boom. Loved it since my favorite game of all time is sonic adventure 2 battle

[@chaoqueen666]

YYYYYEEEEESSSSSS!!!! THHHHAAANNNK YYYOOOOOUUUUU! By the way i really enjoyed this. im a huge fan of that game and i have played that level so much that i know pretty much every word to this song.

[@Scootaflew]

This is probably the best idea I have heard this year.

[@8loodyrain]

It's so awesome that I was the 11 person to sub to you! You have gone a long way.

[@NotessimoSwift]

Comparing this to the original, this seems a bit more...rebellious. I just find it in your voice. To be honest, thinking about Sonic not so much as a good guy who lives on the edge but more of a rebel to the world around him makes me appreciate him alot more. Man, if only Sega didn't market to children, Sonic could get a whole lot deeper. Thank you for providing me with this epiphinical moment db. (Oh, and nice cover too. ;) )

[@blushroom0286]

The only thing that could make this song better is some trumpet, for a nice punk throwback. Great job once again. :)

[@Jala1250]

It was fun singing this with you at BronyCon! Keep playin'!

[@poprocks1782]

This song!! I remember replaying the first stage of SA2 repeatedly just to listen to that song!! The cover is great, by the way!! :D

[@seekerofaw]

the pic fits so well with the music. love you music dude. keep rockin

[@Emtwplays]

Very few people handle criticism as well as you do. Quite admirable good sir! Also this cover is awesome.

[@lordofshadowfall]

damn sounds damn close to the original to be honest Im blown away thank you for this blast from the past

[@Dankmeat]

Congratulations on the 4000 subs! I f**king love this song! X)

[@BaritoneBlur]

dB, you are officially among my Top 3 Favorite Brony Artists!

[@Bluewind098]

Great cover. While it may not have aged greatly I still love SA2 and this song and level is one of the main reasons. Though of there is one thing I want to nitpick it's just the fact it's based on the original. Personally (though it matters if you played it) I love the Generations mix. I love the extra riffs and even an extra composition. That's my main grip but if that's my grip I think that should say in how good of a job you did

[@GlassBreaker103]

Yet again... You've out-done yourself! Keep it up dB!

[@Bronyfied]

Friggin' beautiful, man! Friggin beautiful!

[@gabbygums1494]

At first I thought this was about Babs Seed escaping Manehattan, haha. Great cover!

[@UndergroundLounge1]

Wow. Your voice really works in that song. Great job.

[@ThePa1riot]

Fantastic cover of one of the hidden gems of our generation! If you think about it, Sonic could stand in for bronies. Happy with his life and living it how he chooses. The G.U.N. truck is like the haters, relentlessly pursuing him/us with rage at the freedom and happiness of it's quarry.

[@DementedN]

Anyways, after this, I want to hear you cover "Endless Possibilities"! You're very good!

[@bussyox10]

what anime cartoon has this song as its title sequence im having a brain fart.... great job dbpony cant wait for your next release

[@OMGitsDSypl]

Oh god, I need to look at the rest of your stuff now, that is amazing XD!!! Thank you so much

[@emoluver619]

Oh wow one of my favorite songs from the Sonic Games besides Pumpkin Hill! Props!

[@PlasticCyborg]

DB PONY! I LOVE YOU FOREVER BECAUSE OF THIS COVER!!!!!

[@tipsybnuuy]

I love Sonic Adventure 2 and I love this.

[@gonchoff]

Im glad to be one of his earlier subscribers bc this guy is amazing.

[@Strigonov]

Dat bass, bro...those savory chords...

[@SashaWS]

Dude, this song just gained you another subscriber!

[@500werewolf]

Makes sense. The difference between sarcasm and seriousness is hard to spot, or maybe that is just me not looking before I jump again.

[@Freggie]

This. Is amazing.

[@LordVatio]

Amazing, loved this song when I was younger and now i love it even more

[@JaneDoe_EN]

Fantastic cover dBpony. I'm glad I subscribed to you. You have amazing singing and musical skills. /)

[@bananadevourer8801]
