HAPPY BIRTHDAY SONIC 💙

We love you Sonic!

At this point, it's now a yearly tradition for me to listen to this on Sonic's birthday

Originally I wrote a whole 4 paragraphs talking about how much Sonic meant to me, but I figured it’d be buried, so I’ll say this: Sonic, no matter what quality of game, no matter if it’s ‘06 bad or Adventure good The music is always 🔛🔝

The Sonic games have had their highs and lows over the years. But one thing we can agree on is they ALWAYS nailed the music.

Also, the fact they use an arrangement from a fangame and even credited the composer is mind blowing

You know the fact that I’m still coming back to this after 2 years just shows how good this is

Please, an album release. I will buy two.

THEY HAD FOOTAGE OF TAILS THROWING THE BURGER MAN INTO THE OCEAN OH MY GOD

the fact they merged crush 40 and the orchestra just amazing

Am I the only one who has tears after all these old medleys?

The Sonic '06 section went hard

It's sad that we are now closer to the 35th anniversary than we are to the 30th. It still feels like yesterday that this went live. Time goes by as quick as the hedgehog these days

1:26:51 gotta love the sonic plush just on top of the amp for good measure. I didn’t know my guy was chill like that!

This hits SO HARD

Dude, the fact that they got NateWantsToBattle for "Endless Possibilities" _and_ "Escape from the City" is nothing short of godly.

I saw this show last night in Chicago. It was incredible from beginning to end. So much energy and nostalgia! One of my favorite parts was the audience, during the 2nd half of Reach for the Stars, they started turning on all their phone lights. It looked like a field of stars in the crowd and was done with no prompting from the singer.

they did absolutely EVERYTHING right with this one, it really amplifies the power of sonic music can't believe i see this now and missed the premiere

Get your "here before the premiere" tickets here, folks. On a side note, for some reason that art makes Sonic look like a pretty good villain.

My soul has Escaped from the City that is my body

Sonic will always be in our hearts, one of the biggest gaming hits.

this franchise as never went down because this franchise always goes up like sonic himself, when he gets on the floor he never gives up, the things he taught us is to never give up on your goal/dream to be the best and keep on running to the stars.

This aired 2 months ago and I'm still playing it every day. WHERE IS THE VINYL SEGA?!

10/10

If there's something I will never regret, is being a Sonic fan.

So incredibly high quality you can tell sega really is Sonic’s biggest fan

Sega: "Enjoy our awesome music for free!" Nintendo: *Angry DMCA noises*

Here’s to 30 more years 👌🔥

Sonic unleashed is one of the most underrated sonic games of all time, it deserves more respect than hate.

I became a Sonic fan like two weeks before this symphony happened. Just in time to witness this masterpiece live

If there's one thing SEGA does well, It's the MUSIC

31:52 can we talk about how sonic foot tapped perfectly along with the beat of the music.

I tell myself I'm not gonna cry during Live and Learn every time and then I do. I may have been a late entry to the sonic fandom but its music and games have meant the world to me and this is a beautiful celebration of everything that makes Sonic great, thank you!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY

Didn't know this was gonna have any repercution. So my apologies to everyone.

Hey, remember when we were all watching this in our homes right on this very device or TV? Well, now it's on world tour. We get to see it live now. They brought this beauty to us...and now we get to see it up front. I can't thank Sonic enough for this. The Sonic Symphony is the perfect way to redefine the wonderful sounds that give every Sonic game its personality. *Thank you for entering my little life, you hedgehog. Who would I be without you?* 🥹😌

In 6 months i will experience this LIVE IN SAN ANTONIO! Hope to see Crush 40 there too!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SONIC THE HEDGEHOG!!

17:12 I love how they know how terrible and frustrating labyrinth zone is.

Sonic Boom? They did freaking Sonic Boom?! HELL YES!

getting to watch the symphony LIVE with my sister was one of the greatest experiences ever. We love you Sonic!!!

Judging purely by chat reactions, I'm pretty sure that Crush 40 won E3.

Nintendo: "We present to you Mario's Anniversary" Sega: "Hold my beer..."

I swear His World in the Sonic 06 Medley sent shivers immediately down my spine

Sonic unleashed was my first and most favorite game I first played I loved see it be sung once more

"No matter where you are, around the world, I want you to sing it along with me" Me: I will, Crush 40, I will

30 years later and Sonic music STILL doesn't miss.

This was 2 years ago. How time flies.

Getting to hear the Nights Into Dreams theme in full orchestra was just... 😌

It’s tradition to come back to this every once in a while

The live chat be like : "I miss my wife tails."

Masato’s message was the most wholesome thing I’ve heard. Happy 32nd birthday sonic!

I just saw the Sonic symphony world tour in Chicago and wow it was amazing everyone was happy. Nothing bad happened. It was just the whole time and plus almost every seat was booked.

Happy Birthday Sonic the Hedgehog!

I feel so disrespected that anyone pushed the dislike button on this video

I cannot begin to describe just what Sonic as a series means to me. This series has seen many ups and many (often embarrassing) downs, but I always take time out of my schedule to play a Sonic game. The first video I ever personally owned was a gift from my brother: Sonic Adventure DX for the Nintendo Gamecube (I still have the original copy he gave me. Still works fine!). It was a surprise gift one day. The trailer for Sonic Unleashed was the first time a video game trailer got me super hyped for a game (or at least, was the first video game trailer I ever paid attention to). The first game I ever pre-ordered (make of that as you will) was Sonic Frontiers. Every time this series has its highs, it fills me with the same childlike joy I felt the day I got my copy of Adventure DX. And with the success of Frontiers (and the many highs that game had amidst some of the low fluff), I've never been more optimistic and happy for the future of Sonic. Never stop running, Sonic!

While I wasn’t able to see this live, I feel extremely lucky to live in the age of Sonic’s return to glory…With Frontiers, the movies, and this, I was reminded why I love Sonic so freaking much

And with that The sonic fandom finally all collectively enjoyed something

THIS WAS LITERALLY A MASTERPIECE THANK YOU SONIC HAPPY BDAY GOAT

Sonic CD: And I took that personally

Knight of the Wind will forever be my FAVORITE crush 40 song, its so good, I can't help but to shed a few tears

They totally missed their chance to call it “Sonic 3 Medley and Knuckles” 28:20

Happy 31st to Sonic Happy 21st to Shadow And Sweet 16 to Silver Cheers to the next years

I’m 42. Sonic on Game Gear was the first game my parents offered me. So many emotions since then. Thanks ❤

53:00 man I miss my childhood so much

I cried. SEGA, please keep making us proud to be sonic fans.

I refuse to believe that this spiny blue pincushion is 30 years old.

Dude... the finale was epic. Not only do we got Crush 40 performing, but the ENTIRE ORCHESTRA and the chat was singing along

i was legitimately in tears at the end

Man, I'm 31 years old today. My mother was the one who bought me my first Genesis and Not For Resale copy of Sonic The Hedgehog when I was 4. My mother immigrated from Mexico with my dad to California and they worked for every penny they earned, and we didn't have a lot and we didn't earn a lot. We lived with my cousins and they would not let me play their gaming systems. My mother bought me an entire system and I loved it to pieces, I'd play it every day and thats where it started for me. It wasn't until I was older that I really realized what it meant to buy (for us) an expensive console with the money we didn't have to spare just so I could be happy. I thanked my mom again because that purchase took a lot to buy back in the day and I appreciate her so much for it.

Tears in my eyes... I cannot express how beautiful this is. Thank you ❤

Okay after seeing the Mario Movie, I fully believe all the melodies should've been translated into the Sonic movies.

Imagine being Hyper Potions, just two dudes who four years ago made some Pokemon sound alikes on midi controllers. Now they have an entire orchestra playing their song as the finale to a set that represents the entire Sonic series

Johnny is 53 years old but he still have the voice to sing live and learn 😮

Holy hell, Johnny Gioeli was just announced for a couple of the concerts, and I can't believe I'm gonna see him live.

I appreciate the game over compilation during the labyrinth zone segment lmao

>Showing an utter ass-kicking in Labyrinth Zone Oh, they know. *They know.*

Happy Birthday Sonic. SEGA, thanks for all

The His World part was just fucking amazing.

As somebody who grew up playing only sonic for the most part, I approve of this, I was also laughing at the little children not knowing the song and then saying the name of it when it appeared, the same thing happened with my kids, made me laugh really loud! Happy 30th anniversary sonic, thanks sega for making my childhood with this game, I know I’m late to the party due to my family and my son just starting 1st grade this year but still thank you for the memories with my friends and my brother, and thanks to everyone who worked on every single song from sonic. Can’t wait for the 35th

nintendo, take notes. this is how you celebrate your mascot

Happy 33rd anniversary and Happy Birthday Sonic The Hedgehog and Dr. Eggman!

I cried. Happy Birthday

The last 10 years went so fast... PD: See you in ten years

Omg when yall were makin fun of labrynth zone it was jus gold

Gotta say, a FREE concert featuring some of the best game music ever written is a pretty fantastic way to celebrate Sonic's 30th.

GOTTA GO FAST Sonic The Hedgehog

Viendolo de nuevo ahora. Dios, que hermosa experiencia fue ver en vivo está orquesta + los temas vocales. Me hizo darme cuenta de cuánto amo a Sonic, sus juegos y su música. Gracias por todo Sonic, siempre te vas a quedar en mi corazón y mi infancia por siempre 💙

I can't believe it's been a year since this masterpiece dropped.

Nate: "I'm not the biggest Sonic fan." Also Nate: *gets invited to perform in Sonic's 30th anniversary concert after making a kickass tribute album* Me: this pleases me.

So nostalgic and emotional even one of the women playing the instruments was crying

It's humbling that I, a Genesis-generation-era Sonic fan gets the same chills from the earlier soundtracks I do from "Escape the City". Love it.

i like how even sega knows how annoying the spear traps are in labyrinth zone.

yay happy birthday sonic!!
