BRO THE “WOO” AND HAS THE BIGGEST DOPAMINE HIT EVER

[hps]

This song is the exception to the law of conservation of energy
It creates energy from nothing

[ayearoldonyoutubeluigi]

This has got to be one of the happiest video game songs in existence.

[BigMeat]

This song created that sound that we would hear in literally everything related to classic sonic later on.

[CynicalTast]

Alot of Sonic CD’s ost feels like just an expression of freedom from the sound limitations of old game hardware- and this song is a prime example. It’s absolutely bursting with energy and joy- literal cheers accentuating the main bit- it’s pure celebration condensed into music.

As for the stage itself- it’s pretty good! Sonic CD pushes exploration pretty hard and Palmtree Panic is a great introduction to that style. I’m not sure if I’d put it over Green Hill, but it’s definitely better than Emerald Hill- all in all a fantastic opening act.

Sonic has the most consistent best first level themes in game history.

Be it Green Hill Zone, be it Angel Island Zone, be it Palmtree Panic...

Be it Azure Blue World, be it City Escape, be it Leaf Forest...

Be it Misty Lake, be it Windmill Isle, be it Windy Hill...

Amazing introductory songs.

The “yay!” Part gives me life for some reason. It sounds like little kids saying cute things, it makes me happy ❤

Who else experienced nostalgia from the mobile port. Ahhh the

So glad these uploads of the OST exist, and in high quality too. The most popular uploads of Sonic CD's Japanese soundtrack got deleted and I was pretty bummed. Thank you!

Palmtree Panic is a subtropical region[1] with sharp mountains, scattered waterfalls in the background, a clear blue sky[1] with white clouds, and fields covered in green grass. The soil is orange and brown and displays a triangular pattern. Palm trees with pink berries adorn the region, as well as star-shaped green plants that seem to litter the tropical coast. Sometimes, tree trunks with holes in them also appear on the highest mountain tops.

Yes, sure. For such an old game from 1993, there is music that sounds like the music of new games (2010-20××) Palmtree Panic's music is one of the best in Sonic CD. now let's sing together.... WOOO,

[carelesslygeneric]

Man, This really gives a vibe of how Sega devs felt at the time, It just feels far more naturally upbeat than any of their themes since, it just pops with "everything is great!", in a way that nothing really has since. Love Sega, And love this music 💜

[loganr]

In game the song starts at 0:07 and so does the bad future version

[Makatraja]

Sega has the best Music Composition team I've ever seen.

[Fnannice]

This song was really ahead of its time

[BASTARDCRUSH]

the amount of joy this song brings me is unmatched

[nort]

Now THIS is what the Sega CD was capable of.

[yaskravazirka]

The best song ever, it feels just so free and good to listen to this, like you are literally in heaven
