If you're a Ryu and/or Ken fan, I combined both themes into one song for 2 violins and piano. I also timed it to a double-KO gameplay video between Ryu and Ken. It's pretty epic and I invite you to come check it out!
I come back 10 years after to listen to this, with a degree in english and still cant understand shit from what he's singing, but man, it sure makes you want to run a mile after, motivating.
I listened to this a long time ago on a bootleg Street Fighter Flash game using SNK sprites of various cast members. I always thought he was singing in japanese, but it was just a low recording. I just remember being amazed that this had vocals lol
I used to play a completely broken version of that game where you could use Vega's weak punch inifinitely. I laughed a lot with that shit when I was a brat
did that flash game have a dude with brown hair and beard and a evil conter part with purple hair and beard? i remember playing a street fighter flash game with that fighter in it years ago cant seem to remember what its name was
*"SHINKIRO"* (Toshiaki Mori) has some of the best Artwork/Illustration in the History of Gaming. His work always remind me of Alex Ross amazing Artwork/Illustration from *"DC's Kingdom Come."*
As soon as I started listening to this I was like, "That sounds like Takenobu Mitsuyoshi." Looked at the description and sure enough that's exactly who it was. After playing Daytona USA and listening to it's music there's no way I can miss that voice.
I listened to this song too many times and now I sing these lyrics when I play SF4/Super Puzzle Fighter. The fact it makes no sense just makes it more epic for me!
I want to know how tough it's. I want to know the place where my soul is burned out. In order to draw two and the simple answer which is not I continue following an endless way. The hair waving in the scorching biting wind. The body flickers slowly like a flame. It's prevention about feeling intense to quiet inside. Nobody can stop the blow the wave motion emitted. The days which shed each other blood mutually start again. I want to know how tough it's. I want to know the place where my soul is burned out.

Love this song! Especially the opening with the chorus. I absolutely love how the chorus sounds in the background, complimenting the chord progressions and such.
Takenobu Mitsuyoshi, you are the engrish master. From Virtua fighter, to daytona, to Street fighter. You have mastered singing english with an amazingly thick accent and lovably bad grammer. This guy rocks XD.

Yo man, this song is deep, and BOSSLIKE!! That's how awesome and iconic ryu is as a fighting game character. This theme sould've been used for a track in his stage in smash 4. I was just jammin to this while cleaning.
I am no longer a middle schooler like when i first discovered this video/song. I have majored in English and i am now an English Teacher. Yet i still cannot decipher a single word he is singing.
Oh it wad deleted!!! That explains why i could not find this song for quiet some time. Thanks for uploading it again, it sire is the version that felt more like Ryu
I've been looking...for this...for years since I heard it a long time ago on a Street Fighter flash game....I'm sure it's not the exact one, but this is ultimately superior. Thank you.
Same. When I first heard it and I heard the first part I was like “Oh Hell Naw, how can they fuck Ryu’s theme up like this!?”, but as I heard it more in that moment I was like hold on now, this shit is hard!
This is one of those sounds you gotta feel. Once you play a few rounds with Ryu with this song, it changes you. Buuuut, it'll never beat "I'd liek sum poundcake"
I have first listened to this song years ago before I knew about Takenobu Mitsuyoshi and it's one of my favourite video games songs. Takenobu Mitsuyoshi ftw!
IIIII wanted to have taffyyyyyy I wanted a place wheeeeeeeeeere my soul is burning ouuuuuuuut Iiiiin order 2,4,2 And simple answer rich is not I come to you foooooooor The weakened Eeeeeeenglishmaaaaaaaaaan
I had been listening to this song for so long, not knowing where it came from, nor the vocals. I had the lyrics made up and completely wrong about a humble warrior trying to find a peaceful green homestead to live. With Ryu, I suppose I'm not far off.
anyone know what instrumental is being played in the late-middle of the song? its a pretty awesome, I imagine its Ryu's warrior theme with his red bandana blowing in the wind and him standing on the edge of a cliff in the himileyas
I miss Ryu during his pretty-boy days. He looked like the buff Asian lovechild of Charlie Sheen and George Clooney. When Yoshinori Ono took over the franchise, he made him look like the Hulk ate Ryu then wore his flesh and clothes as a grotesque disguise.
I've been looking for this song for sooooooooooooo long. I love this song :D I want to listen to it as I practice martial arts, where can I acquire it? :( Please message me if you know I'd appreciate it. Ryu best fighter in the series :D
thats what i hear of this song: i wonder what my dreammmmss i wonder what my mama said, about the satsuiiiii its look more like kung fu andddddd bla bla bla lba answer lies or something . I VERY LIKE RYU
If you're a Ryu and/or Ken fan, I combined both themes into one song for 2 violins and piano. I also timed it to a double-KO gameplay video between Ryu and Ken. It's pretty epic and I invite you to come check it out!
I strongly suggest you go check this out ! Pretty awesome
Clément Fitoussi Thanks, man! Wasn't sure if it was the best idea to post the comment not but I really did make my video especially for SF fans.
Pretty good, Subbed
Ben Chan wins... By Default! That was pretty good!
MUST WATCH GUYS!!!
awesome dude!!! CHECK IT OUT!!!
“MAH SOUL IS BURNIN OUUUUUUUT”
Man I felt that! 😭😭😭
University engineering 1 students be like….
I come back 10 years after to listen to this, with a degree in english and still cant understand shit from what he's singing, but man, it sure makes you want to run a mile after, motivating.
Same me and my brother got hyped every time we fought to this in sf4
2025 almost, and homie hearting comments! What a goat!!!
I listened to this a long time ago on a bootleg Street Fighter Flash game using SNK sprites of various cast members. I always thought he was singing in japanese, but it was just a low recording. I just remember being amazed that this had vocals lol
Yes that game used sprites from svc chaos
I used to play a completely broken version of that game where you could use Vega's weak punch inifinitely. I laughed a lot with that shit when I was a brat
did that flash game have a dude with brown hair and beard and a evil conter part
with purple hair and beard? i remember playing a street fighter flash game with that fighter in it years ago cant seem to remember what its name was
Same here bron
Oh man, where did you play it? I played one on DragonGamez back when that existed.
This song is proof that the lyrics don't need to make sense (or be an actual language) for music to hype you up.
*"SHINKIRO"* (Toshiaki Mori) has some of the best Artwork/Illustration in the History of Gaming.
His work always remind me of Alex Ross amazing Artwork/Illustration from *"DC's Kingdom Come."*
That Street Fighter Flash is why I’m here.
💯
Totally!! When I heard this on the game, this gave me chills
You mean that broken azz MUGEN-made PC game?
Yep 2005 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Ryu: YOU MUST DEFEAT MY THEME TO STAND A CHANCE.
Guile: Challenge accepted...
Ken: *_allow me to introduce myself_*
@@bigshacc2 Cammy: am I too late to the party?
Vega:What happend? Can i join too?
The ryu theme is the best of all, for my sure
Sagat: Hah !
I WON?
Let's eat some cornflakes
As soon as I started listening to this I was like, "That sounds like Takenobu Mitsuyoshi." Looked at the description and sure enough that's exactly who it was. After playing Daytona USA and listening to it's music there's no way I can miss that voice.
Yo you still alive?
Is somebody listening this masterpiece in 2024?
Me
Heck yeahhh! 🎉lol
Takenobu Mitsuyoshi, was also the voice actor of Akira in the very first Virtua Fighter, and here he is singing as Ryu...
I remember crying a little bit when I first heard this song. It's so awesome...
Same
if ryu actually sounded like this when singing
i want him to sing in every future SF game to come
CHANGE MY MIND
I listened to this song too many times and now I sing these lyrics when I play SF4/Super Puzzle Fighter. The fact it makes no sense just makes it more epic for me!
i love it. Thx for uploading.
Napiyon lan burda sjsjs
The lyrics make no sense, but man he sings with such passion and emotion.
enjoy men enjoy
Well the lyrics may be similar to a Haiku, a poem that sounds nonsensical but it is connected to one theme in particular.
@@EternalRoman basically
It's legit a long ass Haiku that basically saying "I have several questions and the answer lies in the heart of battle"
@@SaanWukong Your explanation sounds good to me 👍
SaanWukong ah now it makes sense
I can actually land 100 one-armed knuckle pushups in under 4 minutes listening to this.
It's just that epic.
Man you must be a pretty good athleate arent you?
America Eagle Yep! I've done performance training for a few years now.
Cool :)
How strong are you now?
ROLL CANCEEEEEEEELLLLLLL

Full disclosure, I am lifting dumbells right now. Manly song is manly.
***** Haha you are not the only one ;)
Silly old Turtle. He thinks he matters.
Looking back in life, all these years of this tune...I don't think anything has ever worded the meaning of life better.
This played at the stop sign of fate right at the climax. If you’re reading this Love u babe glad you didnt die of blood loss❤

Dat Ryu english doe
I was looking for this for a while and thought I was going crazy because I could not find it anywhere lol.
Love this song! Especially the opening with the chorus.
I absolutely love how the chorus sounds in the background, complimenting the chord progressions and such.
This song belongs in some action movie or something while the hero is having an epic fight with an evil villian
George Clooney Ryu's theme is pretty good.
Takenobu Mitsuyoshi, you are the engrish master. From Virtua fighter, to daytona, to Street fighter. You have mastered singing english with an amazingly thick accent and lovably bad grammer. This guy rocks XD.
Man! I haven't heard this song in SOOOO LONG, I heard it on a video game radio station online; loved it.
ryu looks like Charlie sheen in young days

Dude thank u for uploading this on youtube I have been looking for this everywhere
This is how the song would sound if Ryu sang it...still a great mp3 for MUGEN Ryu stage...in the rain.
yeah i'm a big fan of mugen
I desperately want to know how tough it's
I thought the opening lyrics were: i wanted a house on the beach... HAHAHAH
lol
and when i first listened to this in street fighter deluxe edition mugen i thought it was an ad
@@miceeater69420 svc mugen?
I like this song. I've been searching forever for this version of Ryu's theme. It's great, like the character himself.
Man I don't know why I love this so much I've listened to it about 3 times already. The Engrish is just too good!
Ryu the hard worker :)
Listening to this song with headphones on and in high quality...
Epic.
Just, epic.
I am no longer a middle schooler like when i first discovered this video/song. I have majored in English and i am now an English Teacher. Yet i still cannot decipher a single word he is singing.
Surprisingly, this works. Would be good for a movie or TV show.
Oh it wad deleted!!! That explains why i could not find this song for quiet some time. Thanks for uploading it again, it sire is the version that felt more like Ryu
I think this is a dramatic and well produced version of this song... I love it xD
I've been looking...for this...for years since I heard it a long time ago on a Street Fighter flash game....I'm sure it's not the exact one, but this is ultimately superior.
Thank you.
@startingline13 Correct! Takenobu Mitsuyoshi made the music and vocals for Daytona USA and a number of other SEGA and AM2 games.
I remember the first time i hear this song is where i played a flash version of street fighter in the internet, it is so nostalgic
Same. When I first heard it and I heard the first part I was like “Oh Hell Naw, how can they fuck Ryu’s theme up like this!?”, but as I heard it more in that moment I was like hold on now, this shit is hard!
CAN I GET A HELL YEAH, BROTHERS?
Man! I've been looking for this song for ages!
I'm learning the words and will be filming a vocal attempt on this v v soon.
Go Takenobu!
Still none?
Best Street fighter song ever....
love this song, thanks for the upload.
This is one of those sounds you gotta feel. Once you play a few rounds with Ryu with this song, it changes you. Buuuut, it'll never beat "I'd liek sum poundcake"
This guy sang the Daytona USA theme too, didn't he?
Well that explains a lot (in a good way!) XD
Incredible! But, I couldn't hold back the laughter thinking "Wow, looks like drunk Myles Kennedy" hahahahahah
Memorable!
This song/version is so wrong it goes right around and is somehow perfect in every way.
↓ ↘ → + P
I have first listened to this song years ago before I knew about Takenobu Mitsuyoshi and it's one of my favourite video games songs. Takenobu Mitsuyoshi ftw!
The singer is the DAYTONA dude isn't?

+A fat NPC thats actually sounds like.
Liquid Snake
go away, you're ruining everyone fun
can't no one fuck with Ryu
Chunli and Ryu seeeexx
"In order to draw two and the simple answer which is not"
What's that supposed to mean?
The answer to that is not simple.
"To draw to", maybe? "To draw close to the answer of an unanswerable question"? Would love to see the source text. :'D
Aren't you gonna use the raging demon evil ryu
You live?
I had been listening to this song for so long, not knowing where it came from, nor the vocals. I had the lyrics made up and completely wrong about a humble warrior trying to find a peaceful green homestead to live. With Ryu, I suppose I'm not far off.
I didn't know Ryu was also a professional Daytona driver
i like some of the lyrics, man so many haters dont worry this is good thanks for uploading SoFGR.

The singer who cover the music was SonWukong Soundwaves
anyone know what instrumental is being played in the late-middle of the song? its a pretty awesome, I imagine its Ryu's warrior theme with his red bandana blowing in the wind and him standing on the edge of a cliff in the himileyas
Una canción para un heroe, el mejor!
I miss Ryu during his pretty-boy days.
He looked like the buff Asian lovechild of Charlie Sheen and George Clooney.
When Yoshinori Ono took over the franchise, he made him look like the Hulk ate Ryu then wore his flesh and clothes as a grotesque disguise.
.............WOW..........
So epic
The sound made me laugh so hard.
I could imagine this song on something like south park.
PROTECT MY BALLS! LETS FIGHTING LOVE!
