Dat bassist is having the time of his life tho

[darionweisbord]

Sonic: "I've got to get ahead and help the train!"
Shadow: "I've got to stop the Doctor's train!"
Silver: "I'm not going to let the Iblis Trigger get away!"

[ChaosXP]

this is the best track! no pun intended

[radarred]

The one level in the game where all 3 storylines intertwine.

[jsaking]

Sonic: Save the train
Shadow: Destroy the train
Silver: Find the Iblis trigger

[UltimateTS]

That's really cool it sounds like a train in the background. There's the horn, the chugging, and the sound the tracks make before it lowers the rail road crossing warning thing. That's art right there

[GabrielGouveia-ed]

All we had to do was to follow the damn train, Sonic !

[babajeeds]

This really reminds me of SA1. That bass guitar is really just having fun and trying out cool stuff. Absolutely incredible.

[RaoulWB]

In this song everything sounds perfect!

[allegro]

For those who didnt understand this line

"Ill be able to go faster by going on top of the train instead of being on the rails"

Basically the "rails" are the tracks, and by "on top of the train" he means the grind rails on the catenary (overhead lines) running above those (non electric) trains in which youll soeed up greatly by grinding instead if running. So basically he's telling you that you should grind on the catenary instead of slowly running on the barren ground.

Not entirely sure what's making the sound (Synthesizers? An entire brass section??), but I find it pretty cool with how they incorporate the sound of a train horn. Fits pretty well with the name of the track lol

"I need to hurry and save the train!" - Sonic, 2006

1:06 Makes me realize how good this song really is

[layersofreverb]

the echoing drums or bongos are genius. so catchy

[SplotchTheCatThing]

Really feels like the performers were given some room to improvise on this one. There's a sense of real spontaneity, especially from the bass player... even the jazz tracks on Sonic Unleashed feel kinda choreographed by comparison.
Would love it if the series went back to a music style something like this for a game or two. There's a lot of untapped potential in it... like even just using the style in a game that doesn't match so well with what Shadow does to the train :o :D

[blockhead]

This where Thomas the tank engine and charge man is.

[vani-lla]

Love how this track progressively ramps up as you go through the level.

[HitsujiMamoru]

That's one funky track xD I like it a lot!
