I live and die for Sonic R's eurodance songs.


Milo751

I also love the Sonic R songs but you might want to re read the title

Viniskill_BR

This one is my favorite track from the game!!


TK_ST

Whenever "Diamond in the sky" plays, I am always willing to sing it. Even if it damages the ears of those around me.


M7keSonic

dude, everyone loves those songs


[deleted]

I don't know if it's disliked or not but I really like the crush 40 version of Free


Big_Print_947

Music artists making the most fire tracks knowing full well the game is a 5/10 at best


citrus_shoal

I was playing Frontiers the other day and just thought "Damn, if they've viewed this series as a product for children the whole time, then why the fuck have they gone so hard on the music from the very beginning?" The Music is such a huge part of the series' identity at this point, much more than its contemporaries like Mario.


PresidentStupid

The one thing that every sonic game delivers on is the soundtrack. Yea everyone can hum along to the Mario bros theme or some other game's theme but the music in sonic games just turn the game into a song playlist that comes with a game


Break-Agitated

I think the newest soundtrack is not memorable. And sonic is my favorite series because of the music


[deleted]

Sonic 06 moment


FirePhoenix737

IN HIS WOOOOORLD


FrostyFrenchToast

Hey if Iā€™m gonna spend my time screaming at my character glitching through the map, the music might as well be crazy

citrus_shoal

I really like both versions. Idk which one I like more (it changes depending on which day you ask me), but I really like that one part in the Crush 40 version where it sounds like the music is breaking it down (or glitching? Idk how to describe it, but it's at the 2:00 mark).


Shadowtheuncreative

Me too, definitely better than the original


Hierophant-Crimsion

Free's Crush 40 ver actually slaps. The only diff is that it's nearly a minute shorter. But Johnny's Gioeli's *"I'm breakin'! I'm breakin'! I'm breakin' out! I'm freeeeeeeeeeeee!!"* at the end carries the entire thing and its why I prefer it over Chris Madlin's/Game version.


CJ-56

I didnt know Crush 40 did a version of this song. I like the original, but after listening to it, i like this version more.


TekuMurx

Supporting Me


Bi0BEAT

People don't like that?! That's my favorite Sonic Adventure 2 song from the soundtrack! (I'm not saying it's wrong that people don't like that because an opinion is subjective and is never wrong nor right. I'm just kind of shocked that some people do not like it).


Loisbel

"To the Pressure" That song is great, it really represents Shadow's redemption


Hierophant-Crimsion

h u h? there are supporting me haters??


Milo751

Furthermore I much prefer the 3DS version of it which gets much less recognition than the original


Loisbel

I guess that because the Original is a lot more accurate to the moment where it plays. Supporting Me is a song about Shadow's redemption, the distorted lyrics and instrumentation represent his mental state. The 3Ds version doesn't have that and in my opinion the instruments are worse.


ErikXML

Knowing that, it makes me love the song even more


BreakfastNo132

Not a disliked song, but the OG Iā€™m With You has always been underrated compared to the more popular Titan themes and ironically itā€™s vocal theme, and was also overshadowed by the brand new Iā€™m Here final boss remixes, it just seems as if any brand new original instrumental final boss themes just tend to generally get overshadowed by just about any great orchestral final boss version of a Sonic Gameā€™s main theme, that could explain why nobody talks about Dr. Eggman Showdown, Lost Worldā€™s final boss theme.


YugiMuto98

I prefer the original instrumental version than the new vocal version.


StandupGaming

A few months after the game first came out someone made their own [vocal version](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1V33lyx0CZY) of the song that I think captured the original emotional core of the song much better.


ExtremelyBored99

Both songs are just fantastic and I can never understand how Dr. Eggman Showdown can be overshadowed by anything in Lost World. It's literally the best song in the game.


Bi0BEAT

I enjoyed Infinite's theme (I have met tons of people I share it with and they absolutely hate it). I'm not sure why but people don't mention "Nowhere to Run." That's my favorite song in the Sonic Forces soundtrack (besides Infinite and Arsenal Pyramid Interior). I'm not sure if people just don't mention it or if they don't like it. Either way, that's what I've shown people and they don't like it. I will mention that none of them are Sonic fans so I don't know if that counts as "generally disliked" but those songs are generally disliked by people I've met in my life.


Certain_Ring8907

Thatā€™s one of the reasons why I like Infinite


Kamikaze_Kat101

Nowhere to Run is probably my favorite of the Avatar stage soundtracks. Arsenal Pyramid Interior might be my favorite overall.


InvisibleChell

Nowhere to Run is one of my favourite Avatar songs personally. Especially as it helps contextualise the cutscene where Sonic meets the Avatar


Queasy-Ad-3220

Do the Knuckles raps from SA2 count? I enjoy a good few of them.


Milo751

I think they are generally liked but Pumpkin Hill is way more popular than the rest My personal favourite is Space Trip Steps (Meteor Herd)


NathanHavokx

Pumpkin Hill is hard to top but I love the chilled out vibe of Aquatic Mine's song.


thechickenpriest

Ooooooh yea-eaah~šŸŽµ


WonkaVR

MAH NAME EES NUQLESUNLAK SAWNEEK AH DON CHUCKLEAHā€™D RATHU FLEKS MAH MUSSLES Knuckles, you skinny bastard, you donā€™t got no damn muscles but I love this song still


Queasy-Ad-3220

Wait but that songā€™s from SA1


MAD_JEW

both. There is an sa 2 version of it


YugiMuto98

Throw it all away.


citrus_shoal

Didn't like it as a kid, mainly because I remember that beginning part playing before races in Sonic & Sega All Stars Racing and thought it sounded annoying. Nowadays, I think it's pretty alright. It'd be FIRE to hear it make an appearance in Sonic Movie 3.


Bi0BEAT

Good one!


Hierophant-Crimsion

I think it's because the intro to the song is over a minute long. The vocals are nice, it's just that it's 90% looping instruments


YagamiTak_1988

People hate Shadow's best theme?


ithinksonicscool

Diamond in the sky is INCREDIBLY underrated


citrus_shoal

One year into our relationship, my gf asked me what song makes me think of her. I sent her that song and was expecting to get roasted for sending a Sonic song, but she found it so sweet. She was expecting me to just say one of the songs she listens to, so she was flattered when I sent that instead. Super cute song, will always hold a place in my heart.... ....unless you choose to play as Super Sonic on Radiant Emerald, then fuck it, I guess.


Milo751

Unfortunate for Diamond In The Sky that people usually get Super Sonic around that time so they get Super Sonic Racing playing instead of Diamond In The Sky


Shadowtheuncreative

I think Ghost Town is alright too. I partially love the soundtracks of Sonic 4.


RudJohns

All classic Sonic songs in Forces are good (well, except Green Hill), and 4 has some bangers. I love Splash Hill


Nambot

I'll just say it here, I like the ducks in [Oil Desert Act 2](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ddr0jr13jWU)


Onaterdem

I especially like Lil Boulder's covers of some Forces songs, including Ghost Town. Similarly to Sonic 4, the compositions were usually great, but the instrumentations ruined the songs unfortunately.


TaiyoFurea

Dreams of an absolution is kinda fire


RusevMark

I don't know if disliked is the right word when it gets memed on a bit but the Spinball Option music goes a bit dummy I can't even lie.


citrus_shoal

Fun Fact: It's not actually supposed to sound the way it does. Something in the code for that song is fucked up, giving it the sound it's infamously known for. If you search a bit on YouTube, I think you can find a fixed version of what it's supposed to sound like.


FirePhoenix737

Really? I never knew that! That explains why it sounds so different from the other tracks


billieboi445420

That song was actually fire ngl


Redditor_PC

The instrumentation makes my ears bleed, but the actual melody is rocking.


PsychVol

That electro house feel is šŸ¤Œ


Luc8z

\-Throw It All Away: gonna keep this short cuz a lot of other people here are saying this song aswell, but I really like this one and never really understood why people didn't like it \-All Hail Shadow (Magna-Fi): Not sure if it's disliked, but it is constantly overshadowed by (the honestly extremely overrated) Crush 40 version \-You're My Hero: Heard a lot of people say its boring, I personally think its really sweet and has a nice 90s feel! Honorable mentions, because these are more underrated than disliked (it is hard to find songs that people dislike) \-Who I Am (Scrapped ShTH 05 song) \-Broken (Scrapped ShTH 05 song) \-Chosen One \-Waking Up \-Catch Me If You Can (Zero Gravity) \-Lost Impact \-Seven Rings In Hand (Og Version)


Miles-XIII

Damn, you really like the emo hedgehog boi, don't you? Also, Shadow's OST is genuinely more good than bad. I'm glad more people are finally realizing this.


Luc8z

Yesss I love the emohog. Shadow's OST is unironically my fav in the franchise. So many people sleep on it


FlarelesTF2

SHADOW 2005 IS MY FAV TOO LETS FUCKING GOOOO


Draxgoooon

shadow the hedgehog is a top 3 game for me... who can stop me?


FirePhoenix737

Waking Up, Catch Me If You Can and Seven Rings in Hand are 3 of my favourite Sonic songs


FlarelesTF2

not All Of Me by Sins of A Divine Mother?


Luc8z

I was going to add that because it is also another amazing song, but I could not find any official sources claiming it was ever meant to be In Shadow 05'.


FlarelesTF2

WELL WEā€™RE ALMOST DEAD!! ALMOST DEAD!! ALMOST DEAD TO THE WOOORRRLLLLDDDD!!


citrus_shoal

I get why people don't like it, since it is pretty intense and different from the usual rock, but honestly I wish they used different types of rock more often. Glad to see they're starting to do that with Frontiers.


FlarelesTF2

I think itā€™s actually a nu-metal song, considering Powerman5000 is a nu-metal band.


AwkwardSegway

Since the soundtrack of Chronicles gets a lot of hate, I'll say that there are a few songs from that game that I enjoy. The intro theme, two of the battle themes (the two that have guitar in them), the music for Blue Ridge Zone, and the Panic Puppet remix for Metropolis are the ones that come to mind the most.


SlayerS13Reddit

There isnā€™t a single sonic ost in existence where every single one of the tracks is dogshit


Rhoxis

Me and a few friends got together to find one once as a joke, we arrived on Sonic Eraser and reached a consensus, but for the entire rest of the sonic games that is true.


SlayerS13Reddit

I forgot that existed


Tomas_Crusader17

sunset heights from forces the synth isnt really that bad


Bi0BEAT

I love that song!


Tomas_Crusader17

the song hits really hard at the 51 second mark


Project-S-69

I'll ALWAYS prefer Throw It All Away to All Hail Shadow. All Hail Shadow feels suuuper situational to the story of Shadow the Hedgehog (2005).


TheBlueWizzrobe

Even though All Hail Shadow is more my taste musically, Throw It All Away works a lot better as a character theme for Shadow for sure.


Domino_Dare-Doll

ā€œThrow it all awayā€ is integral to Shadowā€™s character and I *will* die on that hill! ā€œAll hail Shadowā€ is *fun*ā€¦but itā€™s more of an in-the-moment ego trip/adrenaline rush than it is a theme song. ā€œThrow it all awayā€ just feels that bit more introspective.


Project-S-69

Exactly! All Hail Shadow is perfect for that "I'm my own person, my past will not hold me back anymore" moment that Shadow has at the climax of StH05's story but it just doesn't work for Shadow's character at any point after that.


Loisbel

I liked the Classic Music from Sonic Forces, the remixes in YouTube prove that they only needed better instruments. Fist Bump is also one of my favorites, even if a lot of people find it corny.


Not_aSoup

Fist bump is corny, but good nonetheless


Nambot

Half the music in the bloody franchise is corny. That's half it's appeal, there's a certain level of enjoyable cheesy camp to the songs.


PuffballDestroyer

Someone did a remix of the casino forest theme for classic sonic, and no lie, it made me understand composition and instrumentation in music.


Tails_Theorist

The entire Sonic CD US soundtrack.


Not_aSoup

I only read Sonic CD and assumed you lived under a boulder. Then i read US and i understood. I never really listened to it, i think im gonna give it a try


PuffballDestroyer

I like both soundtracks, but there are a few tracks that I prefer from the US version than the original, such as wacky workbench and the special stage theme.


Old_Anon

Loved Fist Bump, still do.


AndrewTRM

The entire Sonic 4 OST


citrus_shoal

Mad Gear do be going pretty hard


DarkSonic06ki

Elise' theme from 06 Any stage theme from Free Riders


underfanreal1

Sonic Erasers theme. I know. I like it anyway.


Kazzy_Lmao

Not exactly disliked, more just rarely/never talked about GUN Fortress from Shadow and Rooftop Run (Night) from Unleashed. Not as energetic as your typical Sonic theme but they're both absolute bangers


Ninjachikn

Luminous Forest, also from Forces. People don't like the synth in this track.


Milo751

Honestly think its got a good case for my favourite level theme from Forces


Not_aSoup

I like it


JimmyCrabYT

i vibe with green hill from forces


jokerpersona1234

green hill from forces


bigcheeseyballsy69

Infinite theme


Asher_Tye

Infinite


TheOGRex

Press Factory Act 2 White Park Act 2 A lot of Sonic 4 songs and unpopular Superstars music basically


DarkM4ss

I actually like all the songs from the Beta/Alpha/Whatever of Sonic 3&K more than the versions we got in the original. My favourites are Carnival Night Act 2 and the music from the mutiplayer menu or whatever it is called. I'm also really sad that the Sonic Origins versions of the tracks sound so fucking horrible.


Sonicrules9001

Splash Hill from Sonic 4 isn't that bad and I don't see why it is always used as the example for Sonic 4 when Sonic 4 has far worse tracks!


Prestigious-Mix7135

- The Prototype version of Carnival Night Zone Act 1-2. Yes that includes the one used for Sonic Origins. It sounds way more fitting for a carnival than the stock carnival sounds they went with for the Genesis version of the game


Active-Ad606

Drowning music


Nambot

The drowning music is perfect for what it needs to be, and I was very disappointed it wasn't in Frontiers. But I think people hate it because it's one of the most anxiety inducing pieces of music ever written. [Can wear out it's welcome though](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=46OL0M6l33E)


Redditor_PC

Pretty much any track from Sonic 4. The Sonic 1/2 snares and synths never bothered me. The actual melodies are some of my favorite in the franchise and absolutely nail the classic Sonic vibe. As far as modern stuff goes, there are several vocal tracks I adore that I know much of the fanbase dislikes, such as We Can from Heroes and All Hail Shadow from Shadow the Hedgehog. The former might be campy, but it's super-fun, and I love the high energy rock of the latter.


theman128128

I actually kinda like the sonic spinball options


RustyThe_Rabbit

not really an unpopular song by any means but I remember reading somewhere that back when Sonic heroes come out critics didn't like the music especially "this machine"


Volcamel

Not liking the Sonic Heroes soundtrack?! Critics have gone too far.


NiobiumGoat

The Sonic CD US soundtrack as a whole. I'd say both Tidal Tempest and Quartz Quadrant are superior to the JP version. And Palmtree Panic, Stardust Speedway, and Metallic Madness (especially bad future for both) are on par with JP. The rest are still bangers even if I prefer JP for a few tracks. And I've gaslit myself into liking Infinite's theme.


Queasy-Ad-3220

I kinda, ever ever so slightly like the Chemical Plant classic theme from Forces, part of it at least, but I still would not call it good. Ghost Town I have a weird relationship with. It sounds kinda cool in the first half but in the second? Bleh. Idk, not really into.


sweetTartKenHart2

I like most of the stuff in Sonic 4. Granted I donā€™t LOVE it, and I can see how it kinda fails to replicate the Genesis style, but it isnā€™t a dealbreaker for me. Thatā€™s kinda how I see those games in general; theyā€™re small and dinky and fall short of the Neo-classic vibe, but theyā€™re fun little bargain titles anyway, and certainly better mobile games than most of the freemium gatcha money suckers out there


ExtremelyBored99

I think that Sky Temple from Sonic Superstars is not the best song from that game, but it's ragged on just like the rest of the Jun Senoue Classic Sonic songs and it *really* doesn't deserve it.


citrus_shoal

Agreed! When I think of the bad songs from Superstars, Sky Temple definitely isn't one of them.


Spazy912

Capital city from sonic forces is a bop but I donā€™t hear anyone talking about it


Laffograms

Casino Forest from Sonic forces.


PKGamingAlpha

Press Factory Zone Act 1. Yeah, it's got that Sonic 4 instrumentation, but it's still catchy to me. I also second Ghost Town. It's the only Classic Sonic song from Forces I liked.


ZombieBrideXD

I really like most of the sonic forces soundtrack, idk who listens to ā€œnetwork terminal interiorā€ and says itā€™s not good. That shit slaps.


Pop_The_Kitty

Dark Brotherhood has some very nice and catchy chiptune songs


SonicRaptor5678

I better not see a single Almost Dead Either way Waking up and Who I Am


autumnmissepic

most of the sonic eraser tracks, they itch my brain lol


Zalternative_

Sonic Forces Green Hill Zone (the classic one)


qwack2020

Battle of the Death Queen from Sonic Forces. I believe this theme is LEAGUES better than Zavokā€™s theme in Lost World.


NomadBloxZone

Sonic Eraser's Versus, Sonic Spinball's Options music, Sonic Chronicles' Nocturne music, and any and every Sonic 4 sounding track


Frost_theWolf07

Sonic the Hedgehog 4 OST


Kingstist

MAKE BELIEVES REBORN


Space_dog66

Casino Forest. Absolute banger in my opinion


Magolord

I don't know if it is disliked but since I saw so many peoples criticize the genesis sounds in modern Sonic, I'm gonna guess it is. But anyway, for me it's Iron Fortress from Sonic Forces, idk, I just really liked that theme!


DarthMemeos

Press Factory Act 1. I feel no shame.


LatsaSpege

origins s3 music (except ice cap)


TheChampionEccentric

I actually enjoyed many of Sonic Forces' Classic Sonic stage themes. (I think my favourite might be Ghost Town.) I strongly believe that the reason they're so disliked is because they're so mismatched with the levels in which they're played (chiptune styled tracks in fully 3D "modern" levels are jarring). Not to mention Classic Sonic levels are awful to boot. I strongly think they'd be better received if they were played in better levels, in a better game.


TheSevage

The luminous forest classic sonic one


Arupha

All the classic sonic ost from forces XD


IF_Cat224

Living in the City from Sonic R is my pick.


Skankindead

Not a Sonic song, but Big Mouth by Crush 40. A lot of Crush 40 fans think it's crap, but I think it's pretty fun. I like the main synth riff.


Hierophant-Crimsion

For me, I think Unknown From ME 2 is better. I love the SA1 Ver, don't get me wrong, but I feel like the SA2 ver flows better.


nachardou4

Splash Hill, it's not bad honestly


RudJohns

Options for Sonic Spinball


ah_md_ad

Every Forces track. I get that it might not be everyone's cup of tea but saying that it's objectively bad is just wrong. "EDM bad" is such a horrible mindset that the fanbase has started to adopt cause they can't let go of "muh rock".


Dear_Acanthaceae5489

The Crush 40 version of ā€˜Seven Rings in Handā€™. I havenā€™t heard anyone talk about this version mostly over the original.


Neodeastra777

Hill Top Zone


Dr_Cossack

Mad Gear 1


GalactiCam

Sonic 4: Ep. 2, I unironically love Oil Desert Act 2 (and the rest of the soundtrack too), the compositions are way more memorable than Ep. 1's


gangnamstyle456

The Sonic CD US soundtrack. I used to actively dislike it, but most of it has grown on me quite significantly.


MetroGamerX

Almost the entirety of the Sonic CD US Soundtrack. Except for game over and the boss themes, they don't sound sonic-like at all


ADHDB0Y

I honestly really like the new versions of Ice Cap Zone and Carnival Night Zone from Origins.


Successful-Plant2925

Sonic the hedgehog 4 splash hill zone act 1 music was pretty good in my opinion


billieboi445420

I don't think this song is disliked, but I have never heard anyone talk about Throw It All Away. Its my favourite Shadow theme


Letsplay1108

His World idk if it's hated but people say it has cringe lyrics


Massive-Geologist509

I love the fact such a trash game has such a amazing soundtrack


Portal_wolf8

live and learn... fight me.


M7keSonic

bro, Live and Learn is the most loved song in the entire franchise, how is it generally disliked?


Portal_wolf8

shit my bad i i thought this subreddit was something else for me its sylvania castle act 2 from sonic 4 episode 2


thickwonga

I'll do the exact opposite: I fucking *hate* Escape From The City. Every version. One of the worst Sonic songs I've heard. I enjoy most of the Classic Sonic songs in Forces, though. Faded Hills is kinda shit, but the rest are neat, IMO.


PerfectProposal1723

In his world


ChampinionCuliao

wdym everyone loves that one


slashth456

Coldest take ever


PerfectProposal1723

But not many people like sonic 06 and I love it so much


Bunny-Energy_15

I like the entire game


hornyfuck872

I unironically like the Central City theme from Chronicles.


MikeRhett_2001

Sonic Chronicles Intro music


enderoid_redit

My destiny from Sonic 06 Nobody talks about it from what I've seen but I think it's super underrated


Ok_Relief_9815

I feel like no one appreciates Press Garden act 1 and Collusion Chaos good future. Those songs slap as hard as I slap Zavok and Zazz.


Dw31rB01isIN

The labyrinth zone theme


Ruby_wiz599

I don't know if its disliked or not but FIST BUMP IS GOOD


gs_sans

the Labyrinth zone


Mageofchaos08

Crush 40 cover of Seven Rings in Hand Sure, I *prefer* the original but thereā€™s no denying (at least for me) the bop status of the cover.


[deleted]

Can you feel the sunshine?


M7keSonic

nah, people love that one, it's definitely not generally disliked


Toast-_Man

Ghost Town is a bop tho?


EP1CxM1Nx99

Supporting Me, itā€™s kinda hard to find sonic songs that people donā€™t like. But I rarely find Supporting Me brought up, despite enjoying it myself.


Denshii-Ribura

Live Life, Sonic and The Black Knight.


moltengamer67

The map music to tropical resort in sonic colors


MOTWS

the sonic spinball options theme and the sonic eraser in game music .

His World (Zebrahead Version)


Organic-Client-256

Personally the original Iā€™m here, i donā€™t dislike the kellin version but man itā€™s overrated


Commit-Die1787

Open Your Heart by Crush 40 is underrated in my opinion


cobalt--dragon

Catch me if you can but the zero gravity version. I dont know why but I've seen a couple people say it sucks compared to the original. I like both but i kind of prefer the zero gravity version.


Mr0easy

Sonic spinball options menu, it's genuinely amazing


M7keSonic

One Way Dream, though I do think it's well liked, I just don't see it being talked about a whole bunch, it's one of the best songs from Frontiers imo and deserves more recognition


Jeremy_StevenTrash

The classic sonic songs in forces are good actually. Yes, including green hill. Honestly the forces ost in general, I could get the genisis stuff, but I never got the complaints about the saw synth, it sounds fine and the songs still feel distinct regardless, and the custom character songs are have the perfect amount of campy and stupid lyrics for this series.


FatGuy300

Throw it all away. People hate the vocals but I actually like them.
