Also YES.

I want a torrent of all the b-univ virtua fighter vocal cds.
 
Most of the best choices have already been mentioned...

I've always been fond of Towards a Far Away Sky from Sky Gunner (the intro theme).
 
Beatmania IIDX - Akira Yamaoka - Injection of Love.

"Fuck me."

Actually, pretty much anything in IIDX by Yamaoka.

I'd also say the Guitar Vader JGR songs, but I figure those are technically liscensed. So, Lonely Rolling Star.

In Katamari Damacy in the Track selection screen the last track on the right side. The one with 'dabadaba':D
Dunno the name, maybe someone has a tracklist or a screenshot from the american version?

Que Sera Sera is the name and yes it is the best vocal song in videogames...

FFX-2: Koda Kumi - Real Emotion (Japanese or English, but the Jade version that appears in the US game is HORRIBLE)

You have Down's syndrome. The original version in the Japanese game is unlistenable.

Yeah, I should have thought of this. The only good thing about LoD :P - which is why I forgot, I suppose...
 
Room of Angel (SH4)
Best is Yet to Come (MGS)
Snake Eater (MGS3)
Your Not Here & Letter from the Lost Days (SH3)

Maybe, but I do like it more, perhaps I'm just partial to Koda Kumi. As she's done a lot of themes that I've liked (Crazy 4 U, Cutie Honey).

Amazing Pirates (Rhapsody: A Musical Adventure)

We are the fearless pirates
We are the most amazing pirates
We hunt for the sunken treasure in the ocean
When we get sunburn we put on lotion


:lol

Nice game lyric and clip site http://www.chudahs-corner.com/

Oh god, I remember seeing this game on X-Play. :lol
 
Rahpsody the forgotten Nippon Ichi game (in the US at least).

Wish I didnt sell my copy ;_;

(Silent Hill 3) "You're Not Here" - Melissa Williamson
Slightly off-topic, the music video for the short remix on DDR Extreme is damn disturbing. And not in the usual Silent Hill type disturbing. Heather SINGS!
:lol
 
GAME OVER YEAH

The song from the Fish and Cow stages of Katamari Damacy is great, although I have no idea what those kids are singing. The only words I understand are "la lala la la, la la la la lala la la"
 
Oh, yeah, I can't believe I forgot Rhapsody stuff. "Thank You" really gets me *sniff*

And the Cow stage song is "The Moon and the Prince," right? That's my favorite KD song.

edit: Oops, no, "Moon and the Prince" is for the bear stage not the cow stage. Sorry.

Actually, he sings a bunch of Virtua Fighter songs. At one point he screams "JYUUNEN HAYAIN DAYO~~!" (Akira's win taunt) and the crowd just fucking EXPLODES.

I'll PM you once I figure out the torrentry.

This is My Happiness - Space Channel 5 Part 2
Gas-O and Hiro's themes from Bust a Groove
Pretty much everything from Katamari

My personal favorite track in KD is 'Lonely Rolling Star.' That song fits perfectly with some of the stages.
I just listened to "Lonely Rolling Star" again and I must say that I agree. It is a great song and fits in with the overall theme of KD.
 
"Do you feel the heartbeat of the night" SEGA Rally

I don't know if that's the title...it's just the only words I understand from that song.
 
My main pick would be: Einhander - Shudder (boss theme)

And there are a couple of licensed rap songs that have appeared in games that I liked... Gang Starr-Mass Appeal in one of the Tony Hawk games is one of the ones I can think of off the top of my head.

I really can't stand this adult contemporary crap they put in every single RPG nowadays, FF8 started it and since then it's been horrible... seriously, this stuff is the Japanese form of Celine Dion... :P
