    It was so much fun:
    To see the Sonic fandom finally be POSITIVE for once.
    To see people in the chat share unabashed love for Endless Possibilities (from a game I never even played, but still brings a tear to my eye)
    To have so much good music that I quickly got over feeling down about the lack of Advance/Rush music.
    To have not just the orchestra concert, but the surprise rock concert after the intermission.
    To know that this was part of a wave of Sonic news and releases that's still not over.

      If there's one thing the Sonic fandom unanimously agrees on, it's that the music is the most consistently good part of this franchise.

    -Crush 40's energy through the entire thing, was electric
    -NateWantsToBattle as a guest singer was fantastic! His version of Escape from the City is possibly my favorite.

    It was a suspiciously quiet day at the office when the concert premiered so I watched it at my desk. I also lost it at the Sega Saturn section *especially* with Sonic Jam. It was me and brother's fave at the time and we played it all the time. Then when they played NiGHTS?? Tearing up at the job. It was literally just my friend/coworker and I and I'm just like "ow my childhood"

      Lol, i still can't believe they put Sonic Jam in there. You know SEGA are really celebrating something when they reference Sonic Jam and then put on NiGHTS music right after. It was crazy.
      I'm really glad to hear you enjoyed it too. I was wondering how many of the NiGHTS fans from back in the day had tune in to see this. We were not forgotten, haha!

  • @AleT118

    Can I just say, it feels so incredibly weird to see SEGA themselves using a fanmade mod with credits to the creators in an official capacity like this. It feels crazy.
    For those who don't know, the SA2 Chao Cam on the halftime part was made by a modder.

    • @JLuisJoni

      Katie from the Sonic Social Media team specifically wanted a Chao cam just for the concert, so they asked to use the mod for the occasion.

    It truly was a great experience.
    I must say the NiGHTS cameos are way more enjoyable now that I understand the details of what it's referencing. I had always known that NiGHTS had a smaller and loyal fanbase, but I don't think it really hit me why until I experienced it for myself.
    The Saturn era may have been short, but I enjoyed it for what it was. I hope some day I can play Sonic Jam too instead of just watching footage of it.

    I love seeing more people talk about this event. It got to me several times. I got choked up at the start of the Saturn melody, and when I finally recovered from Sunshine, NiGHTS heccing starts, and I was not prepared. And, it's weird, 'cause my love for that era of Sega, let alone that era of Sonic only really came around these past few years (Y'know, 'cause I wasn't even alive to have grown up with the Saturn), and yet, those 3 tunes hit me more than most of the songs I'm really nostalgic for. I kept it together somewhat decently after that, alibet getting choked up again by His World (By far the best version of it out there), and Endless Possibilities (Symphony version), but then y'get to the end, I'm pratically spent, and as soon as I think to myself, "Wait, they skipped SA2 in the Crush 40 section," Live and Learn starts. At that point, I'm in tears and hoping no one in the house hears me singing along. The whole time, I'm losing it in real time to my friends including the only other one who was just as hyped for this event, and it was just so surreal having a moment where just about everyone in the community came together in celebration.

This will be hands down the best Sonic anniversary out there, it was just so memorable and so much fun and a big cheers to everyone that took park putting that whole thing together. 💜
    To be honest, it's hard to pick what I like the most I will just say I enjoy every moment and second, of it, it was that good. Music is the only thing that brings Sonic fans together xD and it's great to see that happen.

    @GeorgiaSonic 3 роки тому +10

    The entire thing was gorgeous, beautiful, genuinely had me crying at some points.
    The highlight for me had to be Crush 40. I've always wanted more than anything to see them live and as we all know, that's a rarity few have experienced. If it wasn't for Crush 40 and Sonic I probably never woulda gotten into rock music, mainly heavy metal and pop punk. So to see them kinda live and be able to sing along like I was actually there was... amazing.. I can only imagine how hype it would be to see them in the flesh.
    Man, I owe a lot to Sonic and his music.
    Hearing his world being played in the symphony was so emotional. Zebrahead are one of my favourite bands and I'm blessed to know them on a somewhat personal level, thanks to Sonic. Through them I've met bands like Patent Pending who actually knew who I was before I properly introduced myself 😂 stuff like that never woulda happened without Sonic.

I was crying again at the colors medley as colors was my first sonic game ever. That and black knight. And during the second half I was just completely blown away.
    Sonic, if possible, I will not forget the amount of joy you have given me and the experience I have had with you for all of eternity. Thank you for some of the greatest times of my life.

    As stupid as this sounds, for a multitude of personal reasons, completely melted when Crush 40 started "I Am All of Me." This past 7 months leading up to that had been kind of a rollercoaster of emotions playing Shadow the Hedgehog for the first time and having just beaten it, it was kind of a cathartic moment (holy crap this sounds dumb saying out loud xD). They definitely did NOT have to revisit Shadow, but they did anyway. So amazing.

    I absolutely cried during the concert. Me and a friend (who was also going though a rough day) cuddled and sang along. It was such a wonderful event.
    Sonic may be defined in part by its numerous flaws, but if there's one thing it's always been good at, it's making me *feel* stuff. With very few exceptions, I've never felt apathy. I've felt joy, anger, excitement, sadness, loyalty, betrayal, reverence, disappointment, confusion, victorious, nostalgic, inspired, sometimes even schadenfreude, and so many other emotions, from this one franchise alone.
    Another treat, for me anyway, was Masato Nakamura showing up during the break to talk about his experiences, and then to announce his band doing a full vocal cover of Green Hill. It's been released, so I recommend checking it out. It's pretty good.
    I think the only very minor thing about the concert that I was very very slightly disappointed by was just that there wasn't anything from Sonic 3D Saturn, which is one of my favorite soundtracks in the series. I was kinda hoping for a rendition of Saturn Rusty Ruins. XD But it's okay, the show was still 10/10 for me.

    My ultimate highlight from the concert was the Mania medley. But less from the fact that it was mania, or that mania was an amazing game. Or that the music was amazing.
    But the whole time im listening to the medley, im just enjoying the music, having a good time. Its great, its upbeat, its amazing.
    But then Titanic Monarch kicks in. And thats when the tears actually come out. Studiopolis and Press Garden were fun. And really well performed. But Titanic Monarch was just *BEAUTIFUL*
    And as im listening to it, i am reminded of how Tee Lopes composed it originally. Id been a fan of his for over 10 years. He is a long time fan who makes amazing stuff. And to have a whole professional orchestra do a fan, just like me, do their music that beautifully. It was beyond empowering man. I am incredibly proud of him, and all of us sonic fans who continue to make great things and support each other

    Finally got around to watching the concert, and I'm grateful to have not been spoiled about any of it beforehand because WOW.
    I'm right there with you DiGi, I was watching the beginning of the concert in absolute bliss right from the get go, and when I heard that NiGHTS theme begin to swell, it was like a shot to the heart. I started crying right then and there, I couldn't believe what I was hearing, haha.
    Other emotional points for me were that beautiful violin rendition of It Doesn't Matter from SA1 as that song has always had a special place in my heart, made me cry a good deal more lol.
    Then right at the end, Live and Learn completely broke me. Not only is it my personal favorite and most nostalgic Crush 40 track, but there was something indescribably harmonious about watching Jun Senoue on his guitar, Johnny Gioeli singing as powerfully as ever, and an entire orchestra backing them up, all while the SA2 gameplay was playing on the screen behind them.
    It made me step back and realize just how long of a ride it's been, and just how much pure emotion this series has and always will hold for me and so many others. Sonic 2 was the first video game I ever played and I've been loyal to the series ever since, even with its crazy ups and downs. But no matter what happens, no matter what changes in life, Sonic is like a childhood friend I can always count on to be there when I need some fun and happiness.
    This concert reminded me exactly why I gravitated toward the character and the games at such a young age, it's really just like nothing else out there. I can't thank Sega and everyone involved with the production of the concert enough for bringing all of us such a stellar performance, and all for FREE, just to nail in that this is all to appreciate the support we'll always continue to show.
    Here's to 30 more years, and hoping the next game will really be something special!

The whole concert was great, Endless Possibility and Knight of the Wind were the ones that slammed me the most personally.
    Also you give me that perspective of how diverse the fandom is. I was surprised and happy with the Saturn block being in there but I never had a Saturn, so naturally it floors you more than me. That's the cool part though, just about the whole fandom got moved to tears by different parts.

    Well time to watch the Sonic 30th anniversary Symphony for what? Like the 20th time?
    This is one of those rare times where something Sonic related went completely right. It's pretty much as perfect as it ever could be. There is not one major problem I can think of when it comes to this symphony. The only problems are nitpicks and that's it.
    My highlights would have to be the Sega Saturn melody especially Nights. It's incredibly fitting that Night makes a cameo in this Symohony.
    Belive in myself and It Doesn't Matter. This is where I started to cry (Though there was a couple of times where I did that) since those songs especially It Doesn't Matter meant a lot to me.
    The Ohtani section giving us the IMO definitive versions of Reach for the Stars, Speak With Your Heart, and Endless Possibilities.
    The Crush 40 section with City Escape, and ending it with Live and Learn for a perfect ending for the Symphony.

    For me it was the Classic era, Saturn era and Adventure music. The Classic and Adventure eras were special to me because unlike Mario they had a evolving continuity and characterization and while not as connected as the other two are to each other, the Saturn Era is nostalgic to me for Sonic R and Nights. While I do like some Modern games like Unleashed, I'm sorry Modern fans but I agree with the criticism that Sonic lost his "soul" trying to appeal to people who were never fans to begin with like Arin from the Game Grumps.

    11:58 And yet the only PSO2 cameo NiGHTS made was a statue even though PSP2 had a NiGHTS costume and PSO2 has a freaking Atlus Jack Frost costume... He wasn't even in PSU (probably for the best)

    i'm glad i found this video. i was on the same page of tearing and crying but with almost the entire concert. i love the part when they reference Sonic 2006 with that event song rendition or whatever, and, my most favorite moment ever, the Sonic Adventure 2 renditions. Believe in Myself, It Doesn't Matter, i loved the references to the games and how they showed both Adventure 1 and 2 for some Tails moments. and don't even get me started when they played City Escape at the end, taking us (me, at least..) by surprise, and that last part when they played Live and Learn? that has to be one of the hardest times i ever got to sing the lyrics. i'm not exaggerating when i say that was one of the happiest days of this year. i'm so glad i've got to see that live stream, because it sure was an experience.
    anyways, i think that this comment may have some spelling mistakes, but i said "f*** it, i want to share this" while i wrote this, so yeah, thanks for reading this (if you did), because i sure had fun writing this.

    I think Endless possibilities was my favorite moment, or just really got me to like the track more.

    I was right there with you crying at all the same parts, I will say the keyboardist right after the break she was amazing fast, other big moments were Nate Wants to battle coming in and the way they referenced Last story with Crush 40 and the symphony doing live and learn was epic

    The day of the symphony, I was late and started wathcing live at the Sonic Lost World medley, because I was in class.Since I grew up with the modern games, I really got emotional with the music. They acknowledge so many games, I was so happy. :)

    As a Zelda fan and a Sonic fan. SEGA did a better celebration of Sonic's 30th than Nintendo did for Zelda's 35th.

    As a 30th anniversary celebration for Sonic, I don't think I could have asked for a better way to celebrate the series than through its music.
    I was enthralled and full of joy for the whole concert.
    You can bet I was singing along with Crush 40 for their section of the concert, because my introduction to Sonic was Sonic Adventure 2,
    and I was so amped that I was belting out Live and Learn like I was doing karaoke with friends.

    That symphony was so damn good, but I think the part that got me the most was when they played that remix of "Believe in Myself", mainly because it was a fan remix. I remember hearing that specific remix first in Sonic Before the Sequel (not sure if it's in the current build or not, but it was in the game when it first released). I was caught so off guard by it, and hearing a live orchestra perform a fan remix was magical.

  • @baraksha1
    @baraksha1 3 роки тому +2

    Sega Saturn part of absolutely amazing. but man, I think the one thing from this concert that really drove me was the new Reach For The Stars cover. This isnt even a nostalgia or memory lane thing. For that I had the Crush 40 stuff which was absolutely fantastic and I probably loved the most. But man, I was caught so off guard by that Reach For The Stars Remix. They gave it so much more energy and got more play full with it. Ended up listening to it until it became an ear worm. But this is all under the realm of relativity because saying this whole Symphony was a blast would be an understatement. I don't think I will ever like a Symphony like that to point of hearing its entirety like 10 times in a row. Heck typing this out .akes me want to make that an 11 now.

    First off, I now have tears in my dinner. I hope you're satisfied.
    Secondly, I was at work when the concert went live. I was listening to it as I worked and thanking Chaos for not having anyone around at that time, because I was already tearing up and sobbing from Sonic 2, my first video game ever, thanks to my older brother, who had a Mega Drive.
    When the NiGHTS theme dropped, I had to pause what I was doing. I laid my head on the table and started ugly crying like a child. I couldn't focus on anything else, my vision was blurry from the tears, so I couldn't see anything on the PC screen. I was shaking and weak. Thank goodness my shift was over by the time they hit the intermission, or I would have been a very useless worker for the rest of the day

    Thank you so much for your recommendation. I checked out the concert and it was absolutely amazing. I got teary eyed during the Classic section and was amazed by the references. I was so shocked and happy when Crush 40 played I Am and Sonic Heroes, along with Sonic Boom. The best part was definitely when the orchestra joined in for Escape From the City and Live and Learn!
