*Lyrics:*
Ten - Ten - Here we go again!
Nine - Nine - Don't fall behind!
Eight - Eight - Say, "don't be late!"
Seven - Seven - Destination heaven!
Six - Five - Stay alive!
Four - Three - Now it's you and me!
Two - One - We're gonna have fun
Say "blast off!" - Hey!

Excalibar - It's not that far
What do y'make? - Give and take
Goin' home - Time zone
Check out Egg - He's never alone
Leather 'n' Lace - Getting in place
What do y'get? - Say, "Fast jet!"
Doom room - Cosmic zoom
Heads up, Jake - It's Sonic Boom!

Toot-Toot, Sonic Warrior! Toot-Toot, Sonic Warrior!
Your hour is near at hand
You've got the power to save the land

Take a little chance - slip on through
Y'gotta survive no matter what you do
You gotta do for you

Toot-Toot, Sonic Warrior! Toot-Toot, Sonic Warrior!
The power is in your mind
To shake the planets and conquer time! yay-yay!

Toot-Toot, Sonic Warrior - deep in space and time
Toot-Toot, Sonic Warrior - forever in your mind
Nothing can survive the will to stay alive
'Cause if you try, you can do anything!

Toot-Toot, Sonic Warrior - always takes a chance
Toot-Toot, Sonic Warrior - never says "he can't"
Nothing can survive the will to stay alive
'Cause if you try, you can do anything!

[KidAL]

I absolutely adore the Japanese CD soundtrack and this is the perfect opening to it imo

[citrusnx]

Fun Fact: Sonic CD is the first Sonic game to feature vocal songs.

[gamerbullet]

Excalibur! It's not that far!
...what do you mean?

[dobrakawanimat]

This is so energetic and fun. Really represents the game.

[sirkjohno]

"Nothing can survive the will to stay alive
Cos if you try, you can do anything"

Such a powerful lyric

[TrentonDoesStuff.]

i can't stress how much i love the part at 1:01

[pytha]

While I've always been more partial to Sonic Boom... this song's still pure 90s cheese, and it's great. Honestly wish it was longer.

[GoseiGuyProductions]

They say “Toot-toot! Sonic Warrior” in this song like he’s Popeye the Sailor Man or something

[agentzero]

For some reason I picture that this will play during the Super Sonic scene in Sonic 4

[heyoyogaming]

"Excalibur - Not that far!"
Well, if you consider 16 years "Not that far", I guess

[starcannonsupernova]

Who's here after THAT mid credits scene?

[Poyostar]

And now, the theme that (in my mind) serves as Sonic The Hedgehog's de facto theme song in the 1990s!

Ah, what a great opening theme. I wonder how many people out there know that there is an alternate version of this theme that is only present in the original Mega CD release in Japan? Because honestly, I like both versions equally.

the soundtrack of sonic 4 is going to be INSANE

[shinobitreecko]

I prefer this over Sonic Boom. When I think Sonic CD, You Can Do Anything is more synonymous with this game to me than Sonic Boom, and I've only ever played the American version, where Sonic Boom is used over this.

[Max_da_man]

10-10 Y' can go again
9-9 Don't fall behind
8-8 Say, don't be late
7-7 Destination heaven
6-5 Stay alive
4-3 Now it's you and me
2-1 We're gonna have fun
Say "blast off!" - Hey!!

Excalibar - It's not that far
What do y'make - Give and take
Goin' home - Time zone - Check out Egg
He's never alone
Leather 'n' Lace - Getting in place
What do y'get - Say - Fast jet!
Doom room - Cosmic zoom - Heads up, Jake
It's Sonic Boom!

Toot-toot, Sonic Warrior - toot-toot, Sonic Warrior
Your hour is near at hand
You've got the power to save the land

Take a little chance - slip on through
Y'gotta survive no matter what you do
You gotta do for you

Toot-toot, Sonic Warrior - Toot-toot, Sonic Warrior
The power is in your mind
To shake the planets and conquer time

Toot-toot, Sonic Warrior - deep in space and time
Toot-toot, Sonic Warrior - forever in your mind
Nothing can survive the will to stay alive
'Cause if you try, you can do anything!

Toot-toot, Sonic Warrior - always takes a chance
Toot-toot, Sonic Warrior - never says he can't
Nothing can survive the will to stay alive
'Cause if you try, you can do anything!

Fun fact, this song is actually a remix from Green Hills Zone from Sonic The Hedgehog 2 for MS/GG.

A funnier fact: in the first act of that zone, the name "TOM" can be found near the start of the act written below the floor.

I grew up with All-star racing transformed and this song fills me with nostalgia.

[NocturnalNocinal]

Never knew a song could coach me into getting my life straight...
