After hearing Cheap Trick's Mighty Wings again, I will always wonder if this was originally supposed to be Guile's theme, but they changed it for tying Guile too closely with Top Gun.
For me Ken theme from 92 was and always still the best song an anthem for Street Fighter. In 2016 was an master piece. Love you CAPCOM! Domo arigato🙏🙇❤
The weird super jazz music of the mid 90s seemed to follow like the sonic music. Even though the action was way more exciting. With super combos and stuff.
Well, for Ken, my top 4 favorite version of his theme would be: Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo (3DO) Street Fighter 4 Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo HD Remix Street Fighter 5 But, the best versions in my opinion is from Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo (3DO) and Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo HD Remix. Those are very epic and fit Ken as character very well.
Check out the Street Fighter II Turbo SNES-version. It's not covered here if I identified the themes properly. Just search "Street Fighter II Turbo Snes Music - Ken Stage". That's the best one of the older games ^^ You find all the other ones as well by just replacing the fighter's name.
Street fighter V perfected Ken's theme. You tell me SFV Ken and Vega themes aren't among the best themes in the entire series. And this is coming from someone who doesn't even like SFV but I know a dam good theme when I hear one 🔥🔥🔥
4:23 Sorry but this version first debuted in 2015 Ryu Character DLC for the games Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Super Smash Bros. for Wii U. It later reappeared for the second time in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.
La version original jamas podra ser superada. Donde vayas, donde la oigas, donde suene, ahi estara el alma de street fighter, apenas comienza y el arbitro dice FIGHT.., te eriza la piel, es inevitable poner tus sentidos alerta porque es un luchador duro de vencer, sagaz, intuitivo y mortal..ningun otro tema podra igualar eso. la OST de este juego es de las 5 mejores de todos los tiempos.. Yoko Shimomura la mujer que quedo en la eternidad gamer para siempre
Thanks for this video. I awoke this morning with a need to know and here it is. I stopped playing Street Fighter after Street Fighter 2 Turbo. I've nothing against the later versions, they just existed in a different space to me. But by God, listening to those themes they took a bit of downturn with Super Street Fighter 2 and then almost everything between that and V is an abomination. I think my favourite, which isn't listed here (since it's just evolution of tone rather than composition) is the Turbo version. Really nice opening tone.
Alpha 2 '96 sounds like a Japanase talk show theme... that Ken would be appearing on to interview... Those mid-90s ones seem a bit off, maybe too happy or too "morning television".
My favorite would be the SF2 turbo HD remix, but there's that annoying whip cracking sound that they're just way too hard on that one percussion over and over.

Ken's theme is truly a timeless piece of music. I can listen to it over and over, and never grow tired of it. It is a song of motivation.
Which one
@@aryanburnwal2371
all!!! included Street Fighter EX theme
cant' beat the original SF2 version...none of the later versions came even close once they started introducing more synth into it.
Amen, dude.
Guile and Ken for me
Ken's theme really gives a tear to my eye
And me to
After hearing Cheap Trick's Mighty Wings again, I will always wonder if this was originally supposed to be Guile's theme, but they changed it for tying Guile too closely with Top Gun.
Probably. Similar to what they did with some character names.
good catch my friend
Guile is supposed to be Val Kilmers character Iceman right? Cause there are some huge similarities
@@TheBubba544
🤣 Like what. He’s a white guy in the military!? 🤣 He’s not even in the same Branch.
I agree
the Alpha arrangement is beautiful
It's the most catchy of an already catchy song
2 clears easily
@@ThomasBoyce5000Hard disagree, it’s definitely catchy, but not the MOST catchy
Never played the game but I love this soundtrack.
HOW? ITS STREET FIGHTER
play street fighter 6s free demo you need to experience the franchise the games are soooooo good
Same. Haven’t played the game(s) except very little of SF2 on the Nintendo Wii. Love the music though.
i swear kens theme might as well just be the street fighter theme
It's the first thing that plays in the startup screen for SF4, so for a long time I just assumed it was lol
It was the theme for hd remix.
Even if you’re now a divorced sad sack fighter, Ken you’ll be be awesome to me.
Street fighters Ryu and Ken grew up with my life. But I like the original the best
For me Ken theme from 92 was and always still the best song an anthem for Street Fighter.
In 2016 was an master piece.
Love you CAPCOM! Domo arigato🙏🙇❤
yeah everything after is stuff of the toilet.
street fighter Ken masters' music is pretty legendary 😎
The weird super jazz music of the mid 90s seemed to follow like the sonic music. Even though the action was way more exciting. With super combos and stuff.
Ken's music is my workout music
It only took me 14 years to stop hating on SFIV themes and start appreciate 'em
Never even played Street Fighter but Super Street Fighter II's version is amazing workout music lol.
Alpha 2 Gold will forever have the best Ken theme to me
Where's the Alpha 3 one? That one is one of his best themes.
Well, for Ken, my top 4 favorite version of his theme would be:
Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo (3DO)
Street Fighter 4
Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo HD Remix
Street Fighter 5
But, the best versions in my opinion is from Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo (3DO) and Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo HD Remix. Those are very epic and fit Ken as character very well.

@@Avus86 I heard them. They are good but sound more like highly compressed arcade versions of soundtrack.
Mine is sf3
The 92 theme is golden 🐐
Godlike game series
@3:42 now that is what in the fuck I'm talking about! YEAH!
Street fighter V perfected Ken's theme. You tell me SFV Ken and Vega themes aren't among the best themes in the entire series. And this is coming from someone who doesn't even like SFV but I know a dam good theme when I hear one 🔥🔥🔥
I Miss Street Fighter EX plus Alpha^^
ケンのステージテーマ、大好きです。
Ken players our Gamer National Anthem ✊🔥
Fantastic composition, Yoko is brilliant.
The first theme song is so dope and legendary
X-Men vs Street Fighter version of Ken’s theme is best version in my opinion
Ken is my favorite fighting game charecter of all time
4:23 Sorry but this version first debuted in 2015 Ryu Character DLC for the games Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Super Smash Bros. for Wii U. It later reappeared for the second time in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.
And only on the Wii U version
If its not broke dont fix it first theme is the best
The GTX 1080 theme, gamers know exactly what I'm talking about.
you forgot the street fighter 2 gameboy theme!
Anyone gonna talk about the fact that Ken doesn’t appear to be a natural blonde?
Canonically, he is not. You can see his roots coming in in his sf6 look.
Canonically, he's not. However, it seems like Capcom is deciding on whether to retcon that or not.
Ken and guile will always have BANGER themes.

Yoko Shimomura la mujer que quedo en la eternidad gamer para siempre
Clamato Fever (HD Remix) is my favorite version 😊
My personal favorite version of my theme song is the one with lyrics,
sung by Hironobu Kageyama.
I was looking for exactly that video :)
The best quotes belong to the roaring inferno, the crimson warrior!
Why is the gameplay footage never actually on _his stage_ ?
Nice vídeo bro !!!
Mighty wings.
A pretty big influence over Ken's theme.
Quite fitting since he is American. Even tho Top Gun goes more with Guile tbh.
best for me is, original street fighter and street fighter 5
My favorites are the super street fighter 2, smash remix, sf5, and sf6 even though it came out more recently than this video
Ironically the best rendition of his song is in smash bros
Awesome all street fighter theme thank for combining
How do you not include the intro for each version?
Best of the best!

SFV’s version is so good I bought the music pack in SF6 to listen to it again
Alpha 1 & 2 and 3rd strike are my favorites 4 sure
Que buena calidad de audio, buen trabajo
this is .. enjoyable>
I know it’s been done by another RUclips but Kens theme done using the Megaman X Soundchip
What I love most about this video is that it starts right away none of that fake intro talking and pretending to care about the lore
You have miss Ken's Street Figther 3 songs
Street fighter V has got the best rendition
yeah 92 will remain the greatest.
Bad Bad Bad duken
SF 2 version still my fave !
That smash version:
between hd remix and sf V
No Jazzy 99?
SF II Snes theme was never surpassed. Admit it.
What happened to sf3?
When your hands and feet are on fire
Who came here from the PC master race and DanTDM‘s intro
Missing the 1986 version from Top Gun.
Super Smash Bros Ultimate one keeps building up and then it massively disappoints
Where is alpha 3?
Back in those days, before RTX 3090TI was born
where is the SF X TK ?
Yeah, I still prefer the original, 1992 arcade version, together with the Mega Drive wich sounded close to each other.
you forgot some of the timestamps
Alpha 2 '96 sounds like a Japanase talk show theme... that Ken would be appearing on to interview... Those mid-90s ones seem a bit off, maybe too happy or too "morning television".
Oriukeeeeennnnn
Alpha 3?
Adukennnn
My favorite would be the SF2 turbo HD remix, but there's that annoying whip cracking sound that they're just way too hard on that one percussion over and over.
lol no need to credit the original composer, yoko shimomura, or anything...
I was about to say the same!
sf4 is the best imo but sf5 is really good too
Actually on snes it sounded completely different
There is no Namco x Capcom ost.
The best are sf2 turbo on snes and sf5 imo.
Ken is the Ssj of Street Fighter
Ken master 👍🇺🇸
Nothing beats the original
where its street fighter 3?
SF 3???
Seems like it got worse with each iteration lol. The original has the most iconic sound, rest are shallow duplications.
Kinda disappointing on how you barely played the street fighter 4 theme
street fighter ex doesnt count?
Κen for ever
Wrong!!! The start date is 1991!!!!
Why are the SF3 themes never included
Get this right, it's 1991 to 2021! 🤦♂️
Soundtrack do Ken Online Brasileiro!
Y Marvel super herores vs street figthter?
I think the original sounds better, I feel like the theme went downhill, until Nintendo switch, brought it back with the original.
Either A child or elderly either way it's past your bed time
