+Johnny Torpedo Do Mario Games have good music? The only one that I can think of is Mario Parties 1-3. Now that would be an interesting debate. Mario Party 1-3 vs. Sonic 1-3. (Maybe include Sonic & Knuckles?)
JTR Super Mario Bros 3 has some excellent music so has the rest of the series but SMB3 stands out to me, but in terms of game music in general I'd rate the Zelda series as having the best soundtracks. Sonic's music is great though don't get me wrong. Just wouldn't call it the best.
If I could have all the women in the world I would take this time to leave The pressure's on and I'm not some kind of strong man So take this thing from me
If you actually listen to the different acts of Angel Island, Hydrocity, and Marble Garden, they don't sound the same. Carnival Night, Icecap, and Launch Base do though. Either way, I still think Micheal Jackson was involved.
Me personally Sonic 1: scrap brain zone Sonic 2: oil ocean, chemical plant, and mystic cave Sonic 3: hydrocity, carnival night, ice cap, launch base Sonic & Knuckles: flying battery, lava reef, sky sanctuary, death egg, doomsday
And I'm 17! The Sonic-games on the Genesis really made the franchise! I LOVE this game, and I LOVE the music! I ALWAYS thought sonic music was special, and it truly is! Green Hill Zone, Emerald hill Zone, Angel Island, Ice Cap, Aquatic mine, Hydrocity! So many memories! :D
There's also another part way high up only accessible by Knuckles. I found out about it when I was using an infinite flight game genie on Tails to try and get over the act height limit.
My favorite song's to sing are from sonic 1 are: Green hill zone Marble zone Spring yard zone sonic 2 Emerald Hill zone Chemical plant zone Aquatic ruins zone Casino night zone Sonic 3 Hydrocity Zone Ice cap zone Launch base zone Sonic & knuckles Mushroom hill zone Flying battery zone Sandopolis zone Lava reef zone Death egg zone The Doomsday zone
XANATECHNOMANCER3000 sadly no its a another song by michel jacksons producer at the time brad buxer who made the song hard times by the jetsons i think it would be nice if you listened to that
In sonic 2 you can see a lot of Eggman text on the plane. That's because of Japan's version Dr. Robotnik was always called Dr. Eggman. Just that in more modern Sonic games he is always called Eggman.
I'm not sure how long it took for me to realize I was falling down a looping slide, but when I did I was like OH GOD HOW DO I GET OUT Amazing music, anyway. I love it.
yeah they arent completely different..... but i always thought they ised the exact same track for both.... i only just realized they were different.....
Each act has it's own track, even though most only slightly differ. But did you know that only Launch Base Zone Act 1 and 2 uses the same music file? Only act 2 ignores some instruments here and there. Whereas other tracks, like Ice Cap, need seperate files because they do differ. For example, in act 1 in Ice Cap, by 1:30, it would have looped by now, but act 2 goes on that few more seconds.
Passing the barrel is easy... if you know how. Press and hold down when it moves down, and when it starts moving up press and hold up, and repeat until it goes low enough for you to pass it.
No it's not broken, because the same thing happens on an emulator. It so happens that the ring sound effects might be played on the same channel of part of the notes of Act 2, causing one sound to cover the other for a split second. In this case the ring sound effects seem to always covers part of Act 2's music.
No aquatic mine zone from Sonic 2 on Genesis. The one where you can run under water along with all the ruins. you have these statues which shoots arrows at you and such..
No, the sound card on the genesis can only convey so many sounds at once. When you collect a ring, in order to make the jingle, it needs to stop a certain instrument temporarily until the ring jingle finishes.
I think sonic should go the popular direction for xbla games, "2.5D" graphics. That way you can have the great sonic gameplay that works, and graphics that don't look out of place in todays market.
When i played that barrel part as a kid i had the luck of having a younger brother to be the immortal tails! We thought we had to constantly jump up and down to make it go all the way to the bottom so i can jump off quickly enough XD needless to say it worked but now that i know how to get passed it... the rage we had back then all seems so pointless XD
Well, this is act 2 which is a little different. Ice cap zone act 1 sounds much better in my opinion because all instruments are present from the beginning in that.
I think there is a troll going around youtube and giving one dislike to every sonic music video (if not every video), for no reason. the other 3 dislikes are butthurt people who: Can't even get to Ice Cap Hate sonic for no reason and searched this video to troll Are trolls anyway Did I say trolls? I meant haters. OR trolls k bai
@Garbonzo07 haha I know man I used to play this with my older bro, he was always sonic and i was always tails, we always snuck downstairs on saturday morning and played this XD this was my fav level, our most despised level was carnival night act 2 because of that dumb barrel!! XD oh Nostalgia indeed :D
There is a plugin for Winamp that let's you play Genesis tracks and disable various channels. You can google "Winamp vgm plugin" for the plugin and go to project2612(dot)org for the tracks. The Genesis had two sound chips so it can be a bit complicated finding out what to disable :P

I like Mario but I love Sonic, but no one can disagree that Sonic is always the winner in music.
I'd disagree, but hey, opinions.
I aggree,ahhh casino night zone,I love you.

Zelda was probably the only main N64 games I didn't play. Not my thing.
Its truly unbelievable the Genesis was capable of making music like this
Ice Cap 1 and 2 music...golden....
this song carries a lot of love.
Hard times...
Happiest days of our lives,
Hard times gone by! (8)
If I could have all the women in the world
I would take this time to leave
The pressure's on and I'm not some kind of strong man
So take this thing from me
Don’t give it a second chance
I can see you’ve got better things to do so just take your things and leave
Listening to this song while its 6 degrees outside (literally) makes me want to go snowboarding in the snow lol
Try not to crash on ice as sonic did
@@maniacthehedgehogpokes6435 you may be slightly late, but good advice
My god...flashbacks galore. Staying up until 5am everyday to play this game in grade school...god, I love Sonic. :)
Total eargasm.
If you actually listen to the different acts of Angel Island, Hydrocity, and Marble Garden, they don't sound the same.
Carnival Night, Icecap, and Launch Base do though.
Either way, I still think Micheal Jackson was involved.
Ice Cap Zone is my favourite zone in Sonic 3. I was really disappointed when it didn’t get into Mania.
Because the soundtrack is copyrighted
This music is spectacular! My favorite tune from the Sonic series.
sonic 1: green hill
sonic 2: mystic cave
sonic 3: ice cap
sonic 'n' knuckles: lava reef
mah favorites
Nah man, Chemical Plant is where it’s at!
I’m more of a Wing Fortress person myself
Metrópolis zone is the best
Me personally
Sonic 1: scrap brain zone
Sonic 2: oil ocean, chemical plant, and mystic cave
Sonic 3: hydrocity, carnival night, ice cap, launch base
Sonic & Knuckles: flying battery, lava reef, sky sanctuary, death egg, doomsday
sonic 1: spring yard zone and green hill
this game is soo good i've played it on all platforms possible (i want a Genesis damn it)
Did you get one? 🙂
I can finally play this on piano! Yay!!
This was my favorite track from Sonic 3. My brother and i would say that it sounded like Smooth Criminal... R.I.P. MJ
i love that xylophone beat its epic i think i like two version of ice cap
And I'm 17! The Sonic-games on the Genesis really made the franchise! I LOVE this game, and I LOVE the music! I ALWAYS thought sonic music was special, and it truly is! Green Hill Zone, Emerald hill Zone, Angel Island, Ice Cap, Aquatic mine, Hydrocity! So many memories! :D
This comment is so old, you're 27 now
And I was 5 when this was written
Once you hear this you already know the brilliance of this game.
who else tried to get all the rings up in the secret room?
There's also another part way high up only accessible by Knuckles. I found out about it when I was using an infinite flight game genie on Tails to try and get over the act height limit.
My favorite song's to sing are
from sonic 1 are:
Green hill zone
Marble zone
Spring yard zone
sonic 2
Emerald Hill zone
Chemical plant zone
Aquatic ruins zone
Casino night zone
Sonic 3
Hydrocity Zone
Ice cap zone
Launch base zone
Sonic & knuckles
Mushroom hill zone
Flying battery zone
Sandopolis zone
Lava reef zone
Death egg zone
The Doomsday zone
I love this tune!!! I totally thrashed out all the Sonic's and Ice Cap Zone has the best music, it sounds freakin awesome!!!
This music is beautiful and flawless! I love it so much! :D
0:41 Smooth Criminal
XANATECHNOMANCER3000 sadly no its a another song by michel jacksons producer at the time brad buxer who made the song hard times by the jetsons i think it would be nice if you listened to that
I heard before but ya know almost every one sampled off MJ am I right
XANATECHNOMANCER3000 true in most of the stages like carnival stage sounds like jam
XANATECHNOMANCER3000 Yes! YES!
+TECHNOMANCER3000 No. Hard Times, The Jetzons.
This should be my exercise music
out of all the sonic games, out of all the soundtracks, this is not only my favourite, but it seems to be the peoples' favourite too, i wonder why :)
01:29
ice cap.exe has stopped working your save file will be terminated
LadyLuckyLu the longest song and the most underrated song in the game.
In sonic 2 you can see a lot of Eggman text on the plane. That's because of Japan's version Dr. Robotnik was always called Dr. Eggman. Just that in more modern Sonic games he is always called Eggman.
This Song Will be in my heart until i die
I'm not sure how long it took for me to realize I was falling down a looping slide, but when I did I was like OH GOD HOW DO I GET OUT
Amazing music, anyway. I love it.
One of the best songs in the game? For sure. One of the best songs in history? YEAHHH!
Can't count the number of times I've played this game... How come I never realized act 1&2 had different tracks?!?!?!
pradeep pillai there are parts that have no bass
yeah they arent completely different..... but i always thought they ised the exact same track for both.... i only just realized they were different.....
Each act has it's own track, even though most only slightly differ. But did you know that only Launch Base Zone Act 1 and 2 uses the same music file? Only act 2 ignores some instruments here and there. Whereas other tracks, like Ice Cap, need seperate files because they do differ. For example, in act 1 in Ice Cap, by 1:30, it would have looped by now, but act 2 goes on that few more seconds.
I noticed first time and I've played it at least 6 times.
@@redhotsonic Are you sure about Launch Base Zone act 2? That is arranged differently to Act 1 too.
Como amo esta musica me relaja
This song is my number 1 favorite right next to Metropolis.
I think this is one of the best, if not the best sonic song in the series. XD
One of the best levels to play, I wigged out snowboarding with sonic
You can't hate this kind of music......it's just not natural.
Well I feel like you're right. And even when I figured out how to use it Tails kept screwing me up.

Sonic is
Gives Me Ice cap Zone Night Vibes From Sonic Unleashed
I just imagined a band singing and mash-uping this with original Hard Times lyrics and Smooth Criminal
No aquatic mine zone from Sonic 2 on Genesis. The one where you can run under water along with all the ruins. you have these statues which shoots arrows at you and such..
Hell, that's where I just stopped because I honestly could not figure it out. I really need to go back and finish..
Haha, I love this song! Whenever I was playing S3 and I was on this level, I would always make Sonic dance to the music! XD
Ehm....
This is a 16-bit music.
Epic netherless, but in 16-bit.
But yes, 8-bit and 16-bit
Sonic's good old days....
What has he become?
Because if it was'nt for that barrel, more of us would have gotten to experience Ice Cap.
he was a genius, this is more an Awesome Fact.
RIP MJ
Brad Buxer Did This Song
Act 2 is the full version.
i love all of the sonic music and i always lost at icecap zone
No, the sound card on the genesis can only convey so many sounds at once. When you collect a ring, in order to make the jingle, it needs to stop a certain instrument temporarily until the ring jingle finishes.
Cool Edge past XD
Yeah well, you can't blame them, those damn barrels killed everyone ;)
I love how the songs in Sonic 3 are made by Michael Jackson that made these songs really catchy
it's music like this that makes me wanna snowboard (and i have no idea how to)
I think sonic should go the popular direction for xbla games, "2.5D" graphics. That way you can have the great sonic gameplay that works, and graphics that don't look out of place in todays market.
Yeah, i remember i was about 9 or 10 and i just could not figure out what to do. Took me about 2 months to realise that you could press up and down.
I heard differently from most people that Eggman had always been named Robotnik but they anmed him Eggman because it was fun nickname.
Really? I can't believe so many people had trouble with it. I figured it out on the first try, back at age 8.
Before its too late ,listen to the song with YT's snowfall feature!
Because you have to get through Carnival Night Zone to get here.
I luv this song , and I luv the part where it sounds Smooth Criminal From MJ
NOSTAGIA EXPLOSION!!!!!!
i luv this song sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much!
@jazzyspirit look that up. they ACTULLY FIT GREAT TOGETHER!
Why is this music so gOOD
Smooth Criminal!
+Grosserly Lyric Hard Times....
my favorite song in the game :P
When i played that barrel part as a kid i had the luck of having a younger brother to be the immortal tails! We thought we had to constantly jump up and down to make it go all the way to the bottom so i can jump off quickly enough XD needless to say it worked but now that i know how to get passed it... the rage we had back then all seems so pointless XD
his name in both sonic 1, 2, and 3 is Dr.Eggman
Just play sonic mega collect, the manual says "Dr. Eggman"
@BLAHRGProductions Maybe it's to do with the ice caps melting in the 2nd act?
Oh oh, now there's a fourth!
You're not alone :P
@AbsoluteZero15 Thats when Debug Mode comes into play ;O *Epic Hip Thrust*
Why every ice level in Sonic has a beautiful soundtrack? In Sonic 3 was ice cap and in Sonic 3D was the Diamond Dust Zone.
Thanks for listening, now you've got 16 seconds to complete the level and defeat Robotnic. Good Luck.
@ Chemicalbomber
Most likely, never thought of that
Word to everything i love
I swore i heard a different version of Ice Cap it was nothing like this
LEGO?
@@chilliorganism No 😂 i think it was the PC version
@@B3LiiZ32 oh
@@B3LiiZ32Not too often you get to see a reply 12 years later! And yeah, turns out the PC version used different songs for certain tracks 🤔
This song is just plain awesome. I like much more than Act 1.
That doesn't suprise me. I can so picture him danceing to this.
I found out about how to get past that god damned barrel just by accidentally pressing down on the button 3 months after completely rage quitting. ;.;
When I get a new keyboard.. i'm going to jam these chords to extinction...
THIS IS THE BEST SONIC SONG NEXT to MARBLE HILL ZONE!!!!!! :D
Sonic got swag!
Well, this is act 2 which is a little different. Ice cap zone act 1 sounds much better in my opinion because all instruments are present from the beginning in that.
BAH! It was close enough xD
It's a good zone tho :3
@zenkalt 4 people couldn't get past that barrel in Carinval Night Zone, Act 2.
hard times
I think there is a troll going around youtube and giving one dislike to every sonic music video (if not every video), for no reason. the other 3 dislikes are butthurt people who:
Can't even get to Ice Cap
Hate sonic for no reason and searched this video to troll
Are trolls anyway
Did I say trolls?
I meant haters.
OR trolls
k bai
Wise words SleepySage
I dunno - Wacky Workbench Zone 1's generator was something I NEVER figured out without Gamefaqs/UA-cam.
Earth chan with her ice cap on 😏😄
For some reason I fount this version "Act 2" to be more... depressing at some parts... Not sure why. Great song either way
It took me forever to get here when I was a kid. I couldnt bypass that stupid barrel thinh on carnival night.
@zenkalt omfg that was so hard trying to figure out the barrels!
I love them =D
