I love the very first part. It sounds so peaceful. Then the melody comes, to remind you that it's still a fight. Then there's also the background, the beautiful and distant drone. Such an absolutely beautiful song.
I agree. I was always a SEGA kid back when this was released and my friends and I used to play the arcade machine at a local cafe... but the SNES SS2 will always be the definitive soundtrack and version of the game for me.
TheRequiemofIce I used to feel that way about Vega too, i had atleast 20 tries on Vega when i first played SF2, but now that i've gotten better at SF2 i find Sagat the hardest character in the game.
I will never forget that I went through every character without using a continue,but when I had to face Sagat,he beat me over 99 times straight..I couldn't believe it.. I played with everybody on the roster and he still beat me,eventually I beat him,but lost to Bison atleast another 20-30 times ....still til this day I hated Sagat,because of that...lol I can laugh about it now,but I was mad as hell that day....hahahaha I had the stars on level 6,that day...
TheRequiemofIce How do you guys struggle with Vega? I've always beaten him on my first try. When I first played the game. And even on the hard difficulty.
I used to turn on the SNES and crank up this game JUST TO LISTEN TO THIS. I have no idea what they were thinking when they conceived this tune. Brilliant.
Guys fun fact: His name was Simon. And he was a merchant trying to sell Ryu new clothes but accidentally offended him and got his chest blown to bits. Now Simon is known as Sagat and has only one desire. To sell Ryu new clothes but with force and the power of the tiger!
This is the first SF game to introduce the lower-keyed version of the main melody of Sagat's theme (at about 1:18 in this vid), and I think the lower-keyed part can be heard in every Street Fighter game after this that Sagat is featured in.
You know what's cool, the Street Fighter 2 pack for UNO on Xbox Live Arcade has Sagat's background and theme playing throughout. The theme isn't reproduced as well as this version here but still.... it's Sagat's theme! On Uno!
@@bilingualproject5303 Haha yeah when I saw the notification, I replied right away. Our comments here reminds me of the comment me and this guy made on another SNES music video. He replied on a video I commented on about 11 years ago and I replied right away. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-R1uJb6itOG8.html
My phone went off in class one day... with this song as my ringtone. As soon as I desperetaly reached for my phone in my pocket to shut it off, someone in the back of the class yelled: Tiger!
I played this when Alistair Overeem/Sagat walked to the cage, and when he won. That fight was reminiscent of the first time I fought Sagat, or even the first 50
You are a topp gangsta for coming up with that. You an addition to that aswell. You need someone to say "tiger uppercutt" out of the blue in sagats voice
Sagat is the best tactician of the Street Fighter series. Instead of running into combat like all other fighters he's waiting on You to make the first move. If You try to Jump towards him he'll conter with a Tiger Upercut. If You stay still at the other side of the screen or try a hadoken, sonic boom etc, he'll fire back at You with the Tiger shot. He's all about counter attack and that's what I like about him. He is unique in that way.
