"Believe in Myself" is Tails' theme, and is honestly a little weak and also a little wordy. They are, again, extremely character fitting. They are both pretty decent but nothing amazing. "Believe in Myself" and "E.G.G.M.A.N" are the final two tracks that I haven't mentioned. It's still appropriate to Sonic Adventure 2 and isn't overdone. It has this kind of "emo / badass" style that ended up putting Shadow in his own horrible gun wielding game. Shadow was kind of 'neat' back in the day, but this song embodies at lot of the reasons I hate what they have done with the character. I also don't care for Shadow's theme "Throw it All Away". The rap is very ingrained into the song and becomes more of a background instrumental and this makes it kind of a background piece rather than a theme song. I don't think either crowd would particularly enjoy this track, though. I've met people that think Knuckle's rap is horrible, and I've met people that simply love it because it's apparently awesome or hilarious.

Some may consider the rap track "Unknown from M.E." to be a bit of a dud too. It's not natural and I think that is the bottom line here. If someone wanted music like this, there are a lot better albums out there for that. It may have been fitting to the character, Rouge, but I just don't think many Sonic fans will enjoy this laid back style. The biggest dud on the album is "Fly into Freedom" simply because the style is not fitting in the least to the style of the game. These levels may or may not have been enjoyable to people (I have some good memories of them), but most will agree it's all about Sonic levels in the end.

One thing people didn't like about the 3D Sonic games were the multiple characters which, in turn, meant multiple gameplay modes that were simply not fast paced or natural feeling. This is because the game is a fast-paced one at heart and these tunes just fit naturally no matter how corny they are. Any song that had to do with Sonic or Sonic levels specifically in these 3D games were usually the best. It's fresh and has amazingly catchy and singable melodies. It's yet another fast-paced rock song, but doesn't tire the genre. Nevertheless, if you are a fan of the popular tracks that I have already mentioned then you will most likely adore Sonic's theme "It Doesn't Matter". Most famous Sonic songs that work the best are level themes. I don't think Sonic fans put the characters in the top reasons for liking the series. Every theme perfectly coordinates with its respected character. In fact, for some of these, I've only heard the background instrumentals during gameplay. The rest of the tracks are extremely less known as they are character themes that barely play while you are playing the game. It's a Sonic game though and the bottom line is that it is great for what it strives to be. And yes, it is lighthearted, and there is barely any artistic depth or even artistic craft here. From its catchy bass intro to the singable original melodies, this is one to hear for anyone that likes the idea of fast lighthearted rock. Fortunately they are low key enough to make the song likeable to the average listener. As with the other tunes, it contains silly yet entertaining autobiographical lyrics. It gives a great taste of Sonic vocals and has that fast paced pop/rock feel that one can expect from a 3D Sonic game. Some fans would simply answer the question of appeal by stating that this album contains "Live and Learn", because what else do you need? It's the classic Sonic vocal track and it's got rock and soul to spare, but personally I find "Escape from the City" to be the real highlight track on this album. There are still some adored classics that might just pull this album together, but if this album doesn't contain all the vocals, then what exactly is its appeal? Body If you are interested in this for Crush 40 music, then you simply won't get it all. The problem with its limited album is that, if you are interested in this for the vocals, you won't find a complete collection. Sonic Adventure 2's soundtrack is widely considered one of Jun Senoue's greatest Sonic albums and I couldn't agree more. It features eight vocal tracks and their instrumental versions at the end of the collection. The Sonic Adventure 2 Vocal Collection doesn't look like it has too much to offer at first.
