When I listen to this song, if I close my eyes and let my mind take a break for a bit, I can still recapture the feeling of being 9 years old and going into Video Mania, the local video rental shop, on Friday nights in the fall to rent Mega Man 2 for the weekend.

[@cassiuslmiller771]

Great times, back then

[@tmcttf8087]

Must've been great.

[@volcanickjoe08]

I rented the game too. Now that I think about it, I was lucky to have access to it since I lived in a small town of a third world country. And yet, I beat the hell outta this masterpiece, and rented it multiple times.

[@barnun4925]

The good ole days

[@booognish]

Our local store was called “Easy Video”, and we always supported them over blockbuster..

[@adamwiebusch5812]

My favorite part of this song has to be that clock/metronome sound keeping the beat! It perfectly fits Flash Man and his powers, and I really find it sad that so many remixes forget to include it.

[@civilwildman]

I also swear I hear an imitation of an old fashioned camera shutter at times.

[@ArizonaPenisMan]

Funny since his theme is actually based off of a Metallica song

[@christiankirbo]

Minato Emosato Serious?

[@ArizonaPenisMan]

Christian Kirbo Yep! Check the wiki. Flash Man’s theme is loosely based off of Metallica’s “Seek & Destroy”

[@matthew1420]

@@kakorotskywalker quick boomerang Is basically the buster for me in this game. Like the metal blade, it uses almost no ammunition, it's rapid fire, and if you have a turbo controller, it may as well be the main weapon for most of the game. The range is slightly short but it's darn effective. Most enemies die in 2 or 3 hits.

[@porcusx]

Excellent cover! When I heard what sounded like a brief excerpt from Flash Man's theme (since I was initially listening on audio only), I thought I may have only imagined it, but after rewinding and seeing the "stars", I just had to smile. Nice one!

[@ShadowtheYouTuber523]

I may not like Metallica but I find it fascinating that 2 video games made their own pretty good remixes of Seek and Destroy, this and the infamous Sonic 06 with its rather serious sounding town mission track.

[@Josapr]

I recognized that part vaguely too! But I thought it might have been a jazz/soul piece from the 70's. Edit: FINALLY found the one I was looking for, Spencer Davis Group's "I'm a Man." Hope that helps you narrow down your search, if we're not thinking of the same song.
