While I was never big into fighting games, I have played Street Fighter on occasion. Of course being a huge Nintendo fan I’ve played Super Smash Bros way more, but whenever I’m at an arcade I do play some SF a little. Not saying that I’m anywhere near good at it though!
Since this song is an old classic, I decided to go with my old favorite guitar, the Ibanez RG5320! It’s fun to cycle through guitars for songs, but this one really felt right this time around. The passive pickups on an Ibanez feels perfect for a song from this era. Should I have gone with a red guitar instead?

One of the most iconic and beloved themes in all of video game music. The speed and the intensity, but the catchy melodies are trademarks of Capcom. And even then, it still stands out from the rest. I've wanted to do this one for years. Great seeing you cover such a good theme. Your guitar playing added much to an already good theme with your own style and the solo you released in Shoryuken fashion was as epic as it could've been!
I'm glad I could do it justice by you given how big a fan you are of this era of gaming! Definitely tried to keep a balance of enhancing while not ruining the song. And of course I wanted to add that unique solo in on the shoryuken part just like Ken's shoryuken is unique from Ryu's!
I LOVE the Street Fighter 2 OST, and Ken's Theme is one of my favorites! So excited to see you tackle this one, it suits your style really well. Awesome job!
It's a banger of a song! Thank you, I appreciate that greatly
Woah, just awesome and so intense!!! Street Fighter character themes are some of the best vgm out there. Fantastic rendition! 🔥🔥🔥
Thank you! I tried to make a cover that would match Ken's energy so I'm glad you like it!
One of my favorites from street fighter 2 c:
You gave this truly justice, it had the intense build up and thr catchy lead was truly unique here with some preety goal solos!
I love especially how intense the shoryuken Part is :)
Thanks for sharing this with us!
Thanks, I'm glad I could make a worthy cover of one of your favorites! I wanted to make something that would match Ken's style, especially his flaming shoryuken
Great man, nice sound and harmonies. Love your cat. 0:30 👀
Thanks, I appreciate that. And she loves to pop in when the camera's on. She's in every video!
Nice job dude! Yeah, Ken's theme is a classic and it works so well for guitar! The solo you did was really cool as well!
Thank you! I tried my best to write a solo that would suit Ken so I'm glad you like it! And agreed, the ost for this game rocks
This is super creative, and what a HUGE sound you are getting. That tone is something special as you lay down those chunky rhythm's. Then the leads kick in, and my friend, those are some tasty chops as you bring an arcade classic tune to life, and give it a fresh new life. Love it! Count Generations a new fan and subscriber! - Jay
Thank you! I tried to do this amazing song justice. Glad you enjoyed!
You made my day! I'm always trying to find covers and tutorials for this one.
I can play the pink panther song by memory on my B string now.
Starting to work on Gary Glitter's rock n roll part 2
Glad I could brighten your day! Good luck working on that song
Love this theme!! Such a solid and flawless performance! I enjoy using Ken so much, wahhaha.
Thank you! It's a great song that was fun to do. I like using Ken too, however I don't have any talent at this particular game 😆
Sounds amazing, man. You just owned another subscriber. Keep up the good work.
Thanks! I'll keep working on arrangements and guitar! Glad you liked this
Sounds great! You interpreted each theme wonderfully!
I'm glad you like it! I wasn't sure if it would work, but it was simple enough to transpose one to fit with the other
Excellent piece! Very bouncy rhythm🔥🙌
It is! The off beat 8th note rhythm coming in before each measure is very exciting
Thanks for posting the video! Thanks for another great performance today! It was very mind numbing and healing.
I'm so glad I could provide a nice escape through music 🎶
🎆🔥🎆🔥So great to hear this tune. Great interpretation, great job making this happen. Cheers!🔥🎆🔥🎆
Thank you so much, I really appreciate that!
Nice cover well done!! That BTW is my dream guitar the Ibanez prestige RG 5320. Please correct me if I am wrong.
I played a used one at Guitar Center Tucson last week... it's a damned fine guitar.
That it is! Great choice in dream guitar. I haven't changed a thing about mine aside from jamming some picks into the trem cavity to block it
@@Feverdream7777 Nice find, they never have good stuff like this at my guitar center 😆
Love this stuff!
Thanks dude!
Oh yes! Great job 🔝🔝🔝
Thank you!
