*Disclaimer - Had no clue where to put this so if its moved no hard feelings /> So some of you may or may not know but Emerald Coast has Lyrics! In a fairly obscure SOJ soundtrack from around 98/99 (i think) in where Jun teams up with a singer Junko Noda to make a album that happens to contain Azure Blue World. One of these songs was eventually brought over in English in "The Works" but the rest have yet to. Was wondering if anyone has ever come across a translation of the songs? On Jun's official forums someone asked years ago but nothing went anywhere. If your curious on hearing it yourself you can find/download the whole album over here https://www.dreamcast-talk.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=9812&p=94292#p94292 The whole album to me gives off that late 90's nostalgic feels, maybe because it has a tone like the SA1 Soundtrack
For reference, here are the Japanese lyrics from the album, straight from the album's booklet: https://vgmdb.net/db...iew&cover=16032 Now you just need a translator. :v Also, you were relatively close! READY! actually came out in 2005, which suggests that either Azure Blue World is an instrumental version of one of this album's songs from well before Sonic Adventure, or more likely that they retroactively redid it with lyrics for this album.
"Ready!" by JxJ. The actual song we're referring to is the album's title track. [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cwH1zbJ_lvM[/youtube]
