Accidentally watch till the end at 2pm because finding the water level for sleep in the night but i just fascinated by this explanation, great stuff 😂
You literally played a clip from SRB2 Deep Sea Zone act 2 at the end and NEVER mentioned the Tidal Tempest leitmotif in Castle Eggman Zone? IT'S LITERALLY THE ZONE'S MAIN THEME!! nice video :D
mfs be like Breakbeat
TRIPOD BABY MENTIONED
The Doom is my favorite music. Sounds so soothing, and somewhat sad.
I WAS AT THE BOSTON SHOW TOO IT WAS AWESOME
@@realyungjoe wasn't johnny great? Didn't know he would be there until day of the show
Awesome video! Shadows music compliments his character really well, especially as he sees those burdened spinning barrels.. these videos are always such a treat to watch and give such a great perspective of the musics structure, with a character as deep as shadow it really highlights how much the background music can give context to his adventures..
@SonicWasTaken thank you so much! I live for shadow coping with the barrels
12:43 I haven't played Shadow the Hedgehog all the way through so this song is new to me, and hearing this part takes me directly to Sonic Heroes' Rail Canyon theme.
Omg!! The ultimate life form!!
I think the lyrics goes something like this: Go! Go! Go! Go!
Sonic the Hedgehog 3 competing against Mufasa? Not actually even a challenge to be honest, especially after you see how Lion King fans dislike the idea of that Mufasa film.
Dude the Boston show was so fun. Had no idea you were also in the crowd!
@@ivannn0222 legendary event!
@ivannn0222 Did you hear all the sonic 3 remixes on the speakers before the show started? Even Brad buxer's Ice Cap!
“Shadow… the promised time will soon be here.”
Thanks for bringing up the Tripod Baby remix; I just discovered it (the full version from said commercial) and I'm in love lol
It's almost as if shadow was deigned to be sonics shadow. sonic is shadow if sonic had a bad day and lost a friend. My God look at sonic in sonic X when he saw Chris hurt. Imagine if tails died? He'd become something worse then shaodw in sa2 or Eggman. I love the for true story theme. It's both of their styles clashing together. Shadow was never an edgelord. Just a quiet Interverted individual that has some trauma of losing the only person that didn't see him as a weapon.
Awesome video, PLEASE MAKE MORE SHADOW MUSIC VIDS!
5:49 actually shadow thinks casino levels are cool 😅 He said that in sonic heroes
This ain't no casino...
Sonic wasn’t born when shadow was made, no Sonic DNA edit loved the video though
The hidden palace mural predicted sonic, Gerald observed the prophecized Sonic's phenotypes and reverse engineered the DNA....have you seen Shadows quills in games
Just another incredible video, as usual. Still so glad someone is out here giving these soundtracks the praise they deserve.
What about Shadow's OG theme. Throw it all away?
1:55 Actually, this hasn’t been confirmed. (Yet) I hope Gerald’s Diary for Shadow Generations confirms this to be true. And it makes so much sense within the lore of Shadow. And it could potentially establish that Sonic is truly the real Ultimate Lifeform.
Yeah, I've kind of extrapolated inferred details lol it hasn't been explicitly confirmed but the narrative presented a scenario that leaves that plausible possibility relevant.
What a great video! Really well don’t content :)
Oh yeah this is a hit
I am unreasonably excited about the third sonic movie. They better play Live and Learn - WITH vocals - or we literally riot.
I am just as excited. This is an original song from a Dreamcast game that is going to anchor a Hollywood movie that will make 200 million dollars. Year of Shadow people
10:01 my favorite part, the transition to part 2
Playing that in 1994 was mindblowing, the concept of seamless act transitions, after the fade to black in the first couple of games.
@@AlexYardZone absolutely. There’s also that echidna tuba melody in section 3 that you pointed out, that’s a killer melody
If the Little Planet's rounds are based on Sonic 1's zones, what are Quartz Quadrant and Wacky Workbench?
@user-rz5pg8dn7p I didn't say every CD level was based on a sonic 1 level, just that all sonic 1 levels were slated to get re-imagined in CD.
As someone whose favorite sonic game is Shadow (05), this is now my favorite video on your channel
THANKS for the subtitles. :D
14:08 How am I just now finding out you can strafe??
Something feels wrong but not technically wrong about referring to Sonic and Shadow as "Creatures"
@@MayorOfLuckyBoyNV They are animals and humans are part of the animal Kingdom for that matter.
why does he sound like david hayter
Shadow the Edgelord
One of the best sonic games that unfortunately get too much hate
The way the keys are layer out is genius
Casual Alex Yard W during the Year of Shadow-you love to see it.
Wish you could compare the two versions of “all hail shadow” (personally I prefer the magna fi version)
Shadow The Hedgehog’s OST is incredibly underrated. I genuinely love just how much they fit within each stage. Shadow05 is overhated as hell and I see it’s flaws but overall I only see a fun experience.
I can’t listen to Final Haunt anymore without hearing SnapCube rap over it, it sounds like the complete version of the song 😅
Cool, I'll make sure not to listen to it then, I appreciate the heads up. Some things you can't unhear.
Is that admiration for the Shadow the Hedgehog game? On the internet? A fairly rare sight.
I know, right? I'm gonna rescue this game's rep, it's a 10/10, though I don't know that I'd be as excited to play all 326 paths if I was playing with OG graphics on an original gamecube. Emulation is a world of difference!
i hadnt seen maria being controlled so seeing her dropkicking an alien made me burst out laughing
I'm a complex man I see Alex Yard I click I click to enjoy my free time and have fun learning music theory!!
Mistah Yard, any chance we'll ever get some analysis of songs from Nights into Dreams or Burning Rangers?
really wish they expanded on that all of me and live and learn mix imagine that but as a full song
Waitwaitwaitwaitwaitwait...You can actually play as Maria with a second controller?
You sure can. Most characters you pair up with are playable with a second controller, with the exceptions of black doom, eggman and charmy. Hilariously, the clip in this video of Maria attacking a GUN solider, wasn't actually player2, that was just the AI-controlled Maria lol
I'm interested in making music but feel kinda ignorant. I am deeply obsessed with video game history and how they work. This is the perfect bridge to learn a little about music while still being fun. Thanks for your workA
Not to self-promote, but, for $1 per month on patreon, I have a start-from-scratch music theory 101 course, in a 14 video lecture series with follow up exercises! Just sayin..... Thanks for the kind words!
I’m glad somebody mentioned Death Ruin’s music, I feel like nobody ever talks about it.
I’m so happy you pointed out the flipped motif when Shadow goes super!
Shadow is one of the coolest characters in the series
When Johnny Gioeli was doing signings at a con, I bought the Shadow the Hedgehog Soundtrax CD with me. He commented that he never really saw that one around -- hopefully a little more common nowadays, especially in the year of Shadow.
