Bust a Groove 2 The Heat is On - Aaron G. aka Aaron G. West 

I can’t explain how it’s 2024 and me and my sons literally bought a classic ps1 for $60 and this game both part 1 & 2 for $100 because of this song. It’s really uplifting and motivating to a lot of people! I truly agree this game has to be remastered ASAP! All original songs just polish the graphics. Aaron G this song is legendary!!!!!!!!! I play this song from my childhood to adulthood and now passed it on to my kids. They love it and thank you for giving my kids something positive to look forward to.

2024 and we ain’t no stopping, the heat is still on!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

Man, this song is something special to me. Growing up my family stuggled with money, so I would only get to play new games on PS1 demo discs from PlayStation magazine. One of those discs had a demo for Bust A Groove 2 and Heat's level was the only one available to play. I can't tell you how often I would play that game and not understand how to being so young, but doing it anyway because of this song in particular. This really takes me back, thanks for uploading.

You would not believe the impact this game has had particularily on the latin american gaming community of the early 2000s. Playstation had the mayor presence over its competitors and this one of the most accessible dancing games on the scene, becoming perhaps the most popular dance game here, right up there with Crash, Lara Croft, and others. This song in particular, is so awesome. How it fitted the character perfectly as well as with the animation and art. This game had style. Bust A Groove 2 was such an improvement, voices like yours made it more special, and unforgivable.

This song is like 90% of the reason I love this game

i feel so lonely is the bust a groove fandom now its 2023💔

Square-Enix must bring this game back to us.

I grew up with this game. And until now I still come back to listen to their songs. It will always be a great song for me.

we need to make them remaster it or do an HD version the game can be for adults because of a few lyrics and the dark endings but it's one of the most hidden gems on PlayStation One

2021 and I still here…. everybody knows that Aaron is The ONE

No matter the year, this will always be my favorite song in Bust a Move 2. Cheers BAM community, you're alive and well in 2024!

Que orgullo debe sentir Aaron al saber que fue el creador de una canción que marcó la infancia de muchísima gente alrededor del mundo. Saludos desde Perú!!!

This game deserves a reboot, remake, or remaster. Mr. West, thanks for bringing a great song into one of my favorite video games.

2021 and it's still an amazing song!

Got this game as a birthday gift from a friend back in 1999, and this song was by far my favorite and the only one I used to fire up on practice mode. To this day, I still have my game disc and still play this song every now and then.

I finally listened to the whole song. I think it was cool of Enix to hire so many black people for Bust A Groove/Move 1 and 2, this black focus really helped the game a lot.

We need Bust a Groove All Stars with all the original songs, short and extended, and all the characters we know and love. Imagine arcade mode with full CGI endings, local and online Vs. and tournament (4 and 8 with or without losers matches) modes, a gallery with tons of concept art, videos, music, a diorama-like photo mode...

Wow, this is the real Heat. This song is my childhood, very nostalgic.

MY BROTHERS AND I PLAYED THIS GAME RELIGIOUSLY GROWING UP!!!! DO U HEAR ME!?!?!?! SMH MY GOODNESS! SO MANY GREAT MEMORIES AND I ALWAYS LOVED THE MUSIC FOR THE GAME!!! I THANK GOD FOR MY CHILDHOOD! 💯💯💯💕💕💕

This track will forever live rent free in my head ❤️🔥🔥3:50

Everybody knows that he is the one. Second to none. *HEAT* my personal favorite.

Even as a child my all-time fav character from this franchise was always Heat. So inspiring to realize how talented were all the cast of musicians hired to make these 2 remarkable and always remembered rythm games. I'm amazed as of how much nostalgia a single song can give off. 10/10

That Jazz flute always gets me! So good memories. I remember the first time I heard this song I was a little doubtful because the beat was slower and more "laid back" than Heat's song in the first episode. After playing the game over and over again the song grew up on me and "The heat is on" ended up being my fav song of the series! Thank you so much for the good memories.

Honestly, I'm a new Bust-A-Groove fan. This is honestly one of my favorite songs in the series. It really does stink that this game is so rare, because I would love to own the first 2 games because I'm such a big fan. It also stinks that this game is so unknown nowadays, that even when I talk to PS1 owners from the era, they have no clue what I'm talking about. So, thanks for making such a good song!

I can’t put into words how much I love this song. This game got me through some hard times as child

omg..... so nostalgic...... this makes me so sad.. we need to bring this game back like forreal.

El juego "Bust a Groove 2" ha marcado época, sobre todo por sus geniales canciones, en especial ésta! Es bueno saber que no he sido el único que estuvo buscando al autor de esta canción. Excelente trabajo que se mantiene fresco pasados 20 años! Gracias, Aaron G. West!

Damn this makes me cry, I miss my childhood so much. Thanks for uploading this masterpiece!

the fact this game and song had such an impact on my life and childhood to the point i randomly searched it now, looking for a sense of nostalgia, and then find the man who CREATED it himself is here, uploading to youtube 20 years later.. absolutely insane. aaron, you have no idea on your influence on the world, even indirectly. thank you from the bottom of my heart. mad respect

Straight memories.. Heat was something serious He literally had a move for every lyric. AWESOME!

Everyone knows that he's the one, cause his moves are second to none~

The Heat is on ain't no stopping him now, don't be stepping on the scene thinking you can get down This Brother moves you can't resist, It's like this & this & this Ain't no need to try to duplicate his rifts, if you do you might trip and bust your lips Feel the fire take me higher, drop the props and don't Deny ya Don't be stepping on the scene thinking you can get down Don't be stepping on the scene thinking you can get down Everybody knows that Heat is the one, busting moves that set him 2nd to none When you begin to think Heat's over and done, Ain't no stopping stopping The Heat is on Everybody knows that Heat is the one, busting moves that set him 2nd to none When you begin to think Heat's over and done, Ain't no stopping stopping The Heat is on Are you ready? The Heat is known to rock steady, Stack up your Feddy Money cheddar change whatever you wanna call it Heat is in the place and you know we ballin' Making a scene upon the scene Yo he's a lean and mean and fighting dancing machine So if you wanna step to this there's nothing you can do, the Heat will burn your whole crew Don't be stepping on the scene thinking you can get down Don't be stepping on the scene thinking you can get down Everybody knows that Heat is the one, busting moves that set him 2nd to none When you begin to think Heat's over and done, Ain't no stopping stopping The Heat is on Everybody knows that Heat is the one, busting moves that set him 2nd to none When you begin to think Heat's over and done, Ain't no stopping stopping The Heat is on Heat is the one, ain't no stopping no stopping 2nd to none, ain't no stopping no stopping Over and done, over and done, over and done Ain't no stopping stopping The Heat is on Heat is the one, ain't no stopping no stopping 2nd to none, ain't no stopping no stopping Over and done, over and done, over and done Ain't no stopping stopping The Heat is on No stopping No stopping

I'm glad this song was uploaded here by the unique Aaron.G Greeting from Peru, man!

Man if only you knew how important is this song to me and my family, we spent hours playing and loving this song. When I was studying audio engineering I played this song to equalize the PA since I knew it so well. Anyways, thank you for keeping this amazing song alive!

I Played this game in the beginning of 2000 in the arcades in the country of Brazil is a total nostalgia and the songs stayed inside my mind, I remember of my childhood playing the video game PlayStation 1 by myself and sometimes with some friends who losed the round passed the control to next player. Goods times that never will back. Only memories of a perfect life and a good childhood.

One of my favorite video game song ever and a piece I consider to be perfect. The amazing fusion of old school hip hop and jazz, flawlessly blended with a light pop and R&B vibe. Had me losing my mind over a flute solo. And good god does it hold up today. Thank you for this good sir. It's a song I've loved for almost 20 years and I don't see the streak ending

2019 and this song stills Being a delicious ear worm to me.. The heeaattt iss oonnn

Listening to this again 20 years later, and it's just as good (if not better) than ever! What a beautiful time capsule of my childhood.

This song is stuck on me for 20 years. I love this song as much as love Heat! Never thought I could develop a weird crush on a song and a fictional character. haahaha

I never thought I’d let this song grow on me but damnit I’m a sucker for jazz/orchestral instruments in rap songs 😔

This song and this game was my jam back in my teenage days! We need an HD remake for XB1, Switch & PS4!

Best Version Heat

This song beings back such great memories 😭😭 it’s been 20 years!!

Every time this song pops up on my playlist I feel like I have to leave a comment! So many (good) memories!

This song gives me life. I did a choreography for it back in My high school days

It's 2019 and I still have this amazing game, it's also a JP version.

Cooooool music

"The Heat is on" is one of my favourite song in Bust a Move 2 and also one of the best dance's song game Thank you for the epic masterpiece that has given a happy time when I was a teenager til now I love this song :)

Thank you so much for your work. This song has stuck with me ever since my teenage days. Still listening in 2018, going strong! :)

Mr. Aaron G. West, this song is my childhood! I'm sure you already know the impact this had and the nostalgia people get when hearing this. This track will always be legendary to me. The instrumentation, the hook and flow were so good it used to blow my mind and was so addicting an it still is. Thank you for making this gem my man and blessings to you. The HEAT IS ON!

I am from Perú , this song brings back good memories. When i was in school, i wrote a play about Time, AND un the final act we would make a choreo with this song, it was epic. Thanks for this treasure.

This song is just badass. Brings me back to 2000's. Thank you so much

2021 and this song still has more quality than today’s music. Slap my face with these beats!!! 👋👋

Nearly 20 years later and this song still makes me want to break dance.

pls ENIX and SONY remake this game I miss this so much

Out of all the other songs from Bust a Groove 2, this has to be one of the all-time favorites when I was a kid. Both installments of Bust a Groove will always be my personal favorite in the PS1 game line. Just glad to hear it again here in 2022. ^.^

La mejor canción de todas 🤗😍

Brazilian here Aaron! Thank you for the song!! This is nostalgic.

After all those years still a great piece of art.

This is one of the best song on the game and it my favorite song. It been over 20 years since I play this game.

Been playing this game quite a bit lately, still is iconic and this song is a legendary part of the masterpiece that this game still is. I really, really wish that Square Enix would remake this game with updated graphics, or at least revive the series with the original artists! Thanks for creating such a fantastic song that brings back so many great memories! The Heat is ALWAYS on!

I never thought I'd end up on the page of the person who wrote and performed this song. This song is serious BTW. Dope.

Acho q sou o único brasileiro q gostava de jogar esse jogo nessa fase só pra escutar essa música.

Pasará el tiempo pero tu música marcó un antes y después sobre todo a los que amamos este gran video juego, gracias por tanto 😊👍🏻

I come back here every year to listen since i hit 30. This game was one of the reasons im so into music today i think. Love from Kuwait

The BEST song in this game.

I love this freakin' game, and I've listened to this song a thousand times. And I'm gonna listen to it thousands more ❤‍🔥❤‍🔥❤‍🔥

Thank you for been part of my childhood, greetings from Mexico 🙌

I remembered playing this so much as a kid so I have bought the US and JPN import but the fun never stops when u bust a groove. I blast this while I'm in my car kids don't know nothing about this track.

When I was little, my grandma would buy demo discs at yard sales for my brother & I. One of them had Bust a Groove 2 with Heat's level. I would pop that disc in sometimes just so I could hear this song. Classic!

I like this music 🎶 full street Bronx 90s

I've played Bust A Groove 2 when I was younger, and replayed it as an adult via an emulator. Still holds up as one of the best games I've ever played...also, this song has and will always be on repeat for me!

Your're Aaron OMG I just figured that out recently. Man, this song is a classic. Is the entry for the best dancing game for PS1 (with DDR haha)

First time finding this song, seriously amazing! Thank you fir uploading it

When I hear this song, it reminds my of my big brother beating me bad in video games. He never showed mercy lol but I always kept playing. I may have luckily won a game, but doubt it. Thank you for the memories ❤️

Escuchar estos temas, me lleva a las épocas más felices de mi infancia y me hace recordar a mis compañeros de colegio cuando esperábamos a la salida para jugar unas partidas, canciones que siempre serán recordadas.

this song is so special to me that I could close my eyes and remember good moments of my childhood

JoCat brought me here circa 2022. Always love the nostalgia trip

Perú en Ia casa, tremendo juego y tremendas canciones, deberian estar en Spotify!

Las mejores canciones y las tengo descargadas me recuerdan mi infancia cuando me amanecia jugando con mi hermano :(

This should be in Spotify AND Deezer

I always find my way back to this song and the others in the game. I miss it so much 😭💕

I'm here listen to this at my office in 2018, Man time flies so quick, but we still know that You are the one Aaron...

Holy shit, thanks so much for your work on this song! I love Bust-a-Groove and this song has lived in my head rent free since I was 8 years old

Thanks for the childhood, man!

Every once in a while I get to urge to listen to the soundtracks from Bust a Groove and Bust a Groove 2. The Heat is On is one of my absolute faves

That lyrics makes my tingles with the mix of happy and alone. One of my favorite song in Bust a Move 2. Thank you the wonderful song.

I don't even remember playing Bust A Groove 2 back in the day, even though we did play the hell out of the 1st one. But the Nostalgia hits me when I hear this song, memories just shoot back., Which I had heard it back then, would have worked to get it on tape or CD and pop it in during out breakdance sessions. Amazing track, thank you.

Awesome song, dude! Travels me back in time my siblings and I spent hours playing this game. You got a great voice!
