Yeah. US music is good as a standalone though - I just don't think it fits the style of the game.

 

Seconded. They are both awesome soundtracks; The JP one just has more of a Sonic feel to it.

 

Thirded, even.

 

I only half 4th it. Some tracks in the US version were good. While others in the JAP were better than their US versions/

 

I fifth it.

 

sixth'd

 

You know I've already seventhed
The US music is too overwritten.

 

JAP sux. US FTW. All of it. Apart from the title track, there is nothing on the JAP soundtrack that is anything but annoying.

 

Eithed, even though ther eare acouple songs in the japanese soundtrack that are just random yelling.

 

You're a little bitch about EVERYTHING, lol.

 

Why, because I can give music a chance in a Sonic even when it wasn't composed by the core members of Sonic Team?

Why, because I just happen to really enjoy the other music?

Give me a fucking break. >_>

 

I guess I'll be the odd one out and say the exact opposite. The one set of JPN songs that I thought fit a level better were the Tidal Tempest ones. Although, Metallic Madness Bad Future is a close call, but I'll still go with US. Don't get me wrong, though. I still enjoy the JPN tracks, just to a bit of a lesser extent.

 

Here is when I should say ninethed, right? BTW, as was originally posted, yeah, the Japanese music fits better the game rather than the US version. However, I think that none of them fit the game :P I still preffer musics made using the FM instruments, not waveforms... That's MY opinion, not yours...

 

I guess that means it's my turn... 10th'd

 

Because I don't wish to make this an incredibly long list, I'll make it quick:

Palmtree Panic: Japanese version with all the happy boppy music? Not really for me. I think the American version has the general feel of the first zone, but Japanese Bad Future is a good track on its own.
Collision Chaos: Japanese version tends to have the better tracks, but the American version has one good version (Bad Future)
Tidal Tempest: I'm somewhat mixed. I think both have their pros and cons, but I lean towards the American version more.
Quartz Quadrant: I love the American present music. Some may laud it, but I love it. The Japanese version's quite good as well.
Wacky Workbench: The Japanese version sounds good, fits the zone better, but the American version has decent tracks.
Stardust Speedway: I prefer the American version, yet the Japanese version's just as good.
Metallic Madness: American over Japanese.
Boss musics: "Work that sucka to death!". Arguably the Japanese tracks are loads better than the American version.
Opening theme: The American version's bleh. Japanese version's better.
Ending theme: I prefer the American version for this one.
Misc tracks: I like how the Japanese version tries to blend in the opening/ending themes, but the American ones are alright.

All in all, I'm mixed and both of them have their pros and cons. So I'll say both. I find this quite silly, it's like comparing soundtracks of the Genesis and Saturn versions of Sonic 3D Blast.

 

I'm kinda mixed. I like the USA sountrack but I prefere the JAP and EUR soundtrack more. I'd say Japan and Europe had some of the better tracks with Palmtree Panic, Wacky Workbench and Collision Chaos. And I like the cosmic enternity ending music as well.

 

I personally enjoy mostly the US tracks tons more then the Jap ones.
Eh, probably the more metal/rock feel to the US ones. There are good Jap ones, just not a lot.

 

11th'd?
