MirkoSon Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 This is what I've been begging god for, since I was a child. I'll never be thankful enaugh. Keep up the good work, Ryu and Guile themes would be appreciated too though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucentas Posted December 6, 2008 Share Posted December 6, 2008 Totally awesome song, now I really can't hear Ken's theme any other way. The guitar is amazing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K.B. Posted December 2, 2009 Share Posted December 2, 2009 Before I read the lyrics, I assumed the singer was saying "Takes nothing to realize you're Ken". I mused on that for a bit, and soon the song gained a rather profound meaning. It was no longer pulling me into Ken's esoteric battle, it was showing me how my trials, while entirely my own, were only superficially different from the subject's. It was as if the song was actually a metaphor for the universality of the human struggle. Then I read the lyrics. And I lol'ed. That's one thing cleared with jd. It's meant to be "realise you're Ken." Just a little bit of poor grammar entering the lyrics. May we continue to realize our Ken regardless. And twice on weekends. This song is iconic. If you have a playlist, let alone a computer, that this isn't on, then you are wrong. It's one solid rock track, and no matter how you hear the lyrics the whole thing is f-ing awesome. So... how's that Ryu Song coming along, eh jd? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OceansAndrew Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 A super OCR classic- great clean production and some cool lyrics. Doing a cover of this arrangement at last year's Magfest was totally fun. Nice lyrics, good arrangement and additions, and good guitar tone. Consider my Ken realized.

Crulex Posted December 30, 2010 Share Posted December 30, 2010 That guitar! Damn, that guitar sounds so crisp and high quality, it's fantastic! I can actually hear the whole Top 40 thing and it really works with this. The lyrics are good and fit the character. Nothing against any other ReMix on the site, cause there are a lot that sound like this, but this one in particular just has that professional radio sound and you can almost picture being played for no reason other than it was good. Absolutely one of the best ReMixes of Ken's theme. Can you say I've enjoyed this? Shoryuken! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swansdown Posted August 11, 2012 Share Posted August 11, 2012 Ah The Ken Song. Such glowing sweetness... like neon and honey! :3 It's been a long and winding road. Gotta love it, breaking people's bones. Perfection in a vocal game mix? A favoured tribute for Ken, that's for sure! n_n Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MindWanderer Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 Can't believe I missed this one all those years ago. Sounds a little muddy up next to Ryu Next Generation, though--I wonder if a cleaner version might be available? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metamorphosis Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 Love the production though it's a little bass-heavy, quibbling-wise the autotune on the vox is very noticable. More meaningful lyrics in the chorus would be great but on the whole it's nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryrynz Posted September 23, 2019 Share Posted September 23, 2019 (edited) Incredible song, I wish it got a fresh remix. JD, do you still have the original recordings for this? I need this a bit more balanced and in FLAC.. Edited September 23, 2019 by Ryrynz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
