The Best Of Crush 40 / Super Sonic SongsCrush 40Crush 40 still on top?
as much as i'd like to give this a 5 star rating, it simply isn't worth the full whack... as awesome as Crush 40 are this CD lacks new content, out of the 16 tracks on the CD only 2 are new releases the rest of the CD is filled with the popular sonic themes such as live & learn & Open your heart, however there are a few cover songs sung by them, Un-Gravitify being one of them (original artist Cashell) but its slow and boring compared the techno riven original. it sounds bad so far, but they have reworked some previous songs, and used a hyphen system to tell you whats reworked and whats new content * New Mix for This Release **Previously Unreleased, New Recording For this Release 1. I Am...All Of Me* - ending of song is different 2. His World* - a few new effects & echoes 3. Un-gravitify** - cover of original 4. All Hail Shadow - unchanged 5. Never turn Back - Unchanged 6. Revvin' Up - From Original Crush 40 Album 7. Into The Wind - From Original Crush 40 Album 8. Watch Me Fly - From Original Crush 40 Album 9. Fire Woman** - New Song 10. Sonic Heroes - Unchanged 11. What I'm Made Of... - Unchanged 12. Live Life - Unchanged 13. Knight of The wind* - few sound effects otherwise no difference at all 14. Live & Learn - unchanged (thank god...) 15. Open Your Heart* - more grumbly, and seems alot quieter compared to the original, also take note they sing in sync together 16. Is It You** - new release overall its a good album, compiled with the best tracks from sonic (although.. thats what true blue and True Colors are for...right?)its a nice little CD, the case and art are a little...simple, but their previous album was the same so no grudge there. in a nutshell, awesome band, not so awesome CD, we want more new stuff guys! sick of hearing your old work every album! Songs - 8 Art - 6 New Release - 5

Sonic X - Original SoundtrackGame MusicS-O-N-I-C GO!
this CD is full to the brim with the exciting soundtrack from the hit anime Sonic X, its very upbeat and great to listen to as an typical anime soundtrack should be like, its officially japanese licensed so don't expect to find english lyrics in it, the case is also gorgeous, bright and colourful with the typical mad effects the japanese tend to use all the time, the book inside is full of colourful art aswell as the lyrics for Sonic Drive, but as i for mentioned above are all in Kanji Symbols over all with 40+ tracks, and colourful artwork surrounding the case, this is definately worth its money! S-O-N-I-C GO!

Sonic and the Black Knight Vocal Trax "Face to Faith"Game MusicSpectacular...
This CD is amazing, a classic example of a continueing line of amazing Sonic Music, this Time Crush 40 are back in the saddle! Johnny Gioeli & Jun Senoue set back a No. of Songs ''Knight of the Wind, Fight the Knight,Through the Fire and Finally Live Life'' with all the original heart pumping titles from the Hit game ''Sonic and the Black Knight'' Knight of the Wind plays as the Game's Theme Song, While Live Life is the Ending Credits Song, This Song is both Inspirational and Beautiful, its a blend of Ochestrated and soft rock remixed from the main theme ''knight of the wind'' its a real tear jerker, and this album proves, Gaming Music could easily take centre spot in this world's most popular music, and remain in the no.1 Spot, it also proves that game music are so underated that you can only buy them from certain places, and never in the shops, its a sad matter, because i'm one of those freaks that'd rather listen to game tracks than the crap pouring out of the radio's now a days back on Track though, Live Life, is one of those songs that slap you into reality, and push you towards your goals, its got one of those special magical powers that only certain songs have that grab you telling you, enough is enough, i'll show the world what i can really do! personally even if this was the only song on the album, i'd get it just for this song it also sports sonic collabarations of Bentley Jones, Emma and Tinna from the ALL ENDS and even Crush 40 Version of With Me, Bentley Jones however, sings a remixed version of ''Seven Rings in Hand'' from the game ''Sonic and the Secret Rings'' it has 3 more extra songs, which are the instrumental version of Knight of the Wind,With Me and Live Life, these are truly beautiful and lets you listen to the backing music without the lyrics. With superbly composed Music, and clear lyrics (not to mention the very lovely box art and clear lyrics booklet) you'll find yourself singing along, even if you don't know the lyrics, and probably hum the music at work, or school a truly fabulous piece of music artistry

Sonic and the Black Knight Original Soundtrax "Tales Of Knighthood"Game MusicAmazing much like its Vocal Counterpart
This is yet another beautiful soundtrack, you can feel the medievil and celitc vibe from this masterpiece,the game music itself is just mindblowing if they held game music awards then i'm sorry but SEGA would win over everytime with 68 tracks, and a lovely illustrated CD case, and box so you can even store ''Face to Faith'' safely, it really is too good to be true right? nope, you get well worth your money, because the soundtrack (like all Sonic Games) is breathetaking and you'll be listening to it all week without rest amazing quality, fantastic art and celitc rock? this is truely unmissable!
