Me And My Brother Discuss The Music Of Mega Man 2
Yesterday, the following conversation transpired between my brother and I regarding the music of Mega Man 2, a childhood favorite. There may have been some drinking involved.
My Brother: Crank up Bubble Man's music first.
Me: Aw come on, everybody says they love Bubble Man's music. It's overrated.
My Brother: What, has it gone too mainstream for you or something? Did you like it better back when it had indie appeal? Fine; I remember Flash Man's music being cool, crank that up.
Me: Um, no.
My Brother: Yeah. Um, no. Wait, let's let it play until the breakdown... Um, no. Wait, I was probably thinking that I liked Flash Man's weapon the best, not the music. Try Quick Man.
My Brother: THIS is what I was thinking of when I was trying to remember Flash Man's music. This is more like it.
Me: This IS better... it almost has some sort of Latin groove to it. Like a bossanova or something.
My Brother: Yeah, something like that.
Me: I have no idea what a bossanova sounds like.
My Brother: Me neither. Try Heat Man.
My Brother: This is cool. Remember how we used to make cassettes of video game music to play in our walkmans on the bus?
Me: Yeah.
My Brother: Man, we were dorks.
Me: Yeah.
Me: Hey, there's the Wood Man theme.
Me: This is pretty cool (imitates hi-hat rhythm with his mouth). I just know this wound up on one of my video game mixtapes.
My Brother: What about Air Man?
Me: Ouch. That sounds awful. Not even nostalgia makes me like this.
(similar thoughts are expressed regarding Crash Man and Metal Man's theme.)
Me: Fine. Let's check out the Bubble Man theme.
Me: Fine, you win. This is really cool, and likely the best music in the game.
My Brother: Told you.
