Best Crush 40 Songs

It's basically their ultimate song, featured on Sonic Adventure 2 and their title album. It's one of the most uplifting songs ever, and some of Johnny's best vocal output is on this song (for the band, at least). It's the best song to ever be featured in a video game - no doubt. It also has Jun's best solo after Open Your Heart.

Too hard for me to choose. It's between Live & Learn, I Am... All of Me, and Open Your Heart.

This is one of their most important songs because it defines the sound of Crush 40, being the first song recorded. Sonic Adventure is one of the greatest games in Sonic's history, and this song is a gateway (literally) to Jun's ability as a sound engineer. It also has Jun's best-ever solo.

First impressions mean a lot, and this song was an excellent way to make an impact. Personally, it's my favorite due to Jun Senoue's guitar playing. Not Johnny Gioeli's best vocal work in my opinion, but it's definitely up there.

Ultimate heavy metal song. I heard it and I thought I was listening to Axel Rudi Pell. Too amazing, and it shows Crush 40's versatility. Jun is amazing on lead.

This is just the best song ever! However, there is a lost track that Crush 40 wrote called Broken, and I love that even more. It's sad!

This song is amazing! I love it! I almost listen to it every single day.

Best song in Sonic Heroes, which already had a nice soundtrack to begin with! It suits the whole final battle and plot of the game. I felt so excited to finally hear this gem in action during the game itself! It makes a frustrating and rather boring boss battle ten times better.

The ultimate fighting song. Great vocals on Johnny's part, especially since the songs Crush 40 was making became more metal-oriented at this point. It shows that Johnny is one of the best metal singers ever.

If I had a theme song, this would be it. What I'm Made Of totally fits the whole feel of the final battle in Sonic Heroes, and it brings out Johnny's vocals really well.
Best. Song. Ever.

How in the world has nobody suggested this song yet?! This song from Sonic & the Black Knight should be recognized as much as Open Your Heart or Live and Learn. The Celtic theme that Jun Senoue was trying to convey with this song is incredibly represented. Throw in some of Johnny Gioeli's strongest vocals and an incredibly catchy "Whoa-oh-oh..." intro that can be sung along to, and you have one kickass song! Even if you don't like Black Knight, at least the game gave us an absolutely incredible song from an amazing band.

Wow, a Crush 40 song actually got me teary-eyed!

I just love this song. It got me teary the first time I listened to it.

This song is a Zebrahead cover, but still, Crush 40 made it their own. (Who the heck is Zebrahead?) One of the band's most iconic songs.

This song ultimately proves why Sonic songs are better than Mario songs. Tell me I'm wrong, I dare you.

Zebrahead's Matty Lewis does the best version of His World, but no one seems to notice.

Personally, I feel that this song is really underrated. While some of the lyrics have this narm charm behind them, it's still one of my personal favorite Sonic songs along with What I'm Made Of, Live and Learn, and Open Your Heart.

All hail Shadow, the ultimate lord and savior.

Thank you, Crush 40, for telling people to hail me!

Finally, Jun and Johnny break away from the games with an EP, and this song is just brilliant. Perfect for those hurting, especially after the Japan tsunami. Amazing solo.

One of the best things about Sonic & the Black Knight! Good vocals, good sound, good lyrics, great execution. Awesome song in an okay game!

One of those songs that you can listen to over and over again without getting sick of it! It suits Sonic and the Black Knight really well!

Fantastic way to start off Sonic Adventure 2 and extremely upbeat. My favorite Crush 40 song by far!

Thrill of the Feel is an underrated album, and Watch Me Fly has some of Johnny's highest vocals in the band's history, and for once it's not about Sonic. Despite being a softer song, Jun created yet another memorable riff that sets the mood for the song.

Super underrated and honestly a good song for folks who are tuned to Crush 40's normal tone.

It's one of the Crush 40 songs that got me a bit teary the first time I listened to it.

Too bad this band is in the shadow of a video game character. But this song is still amazing.

The lyrics are kind of silly, but it has one of the most well-performed choruses out of all of their songs.

Such a high-energy tune! My favorite Sonic game theme. Ironic, considering the original source.

This is one of the other songs that really defines the band, being one of their oldest songs. It's probably better than Open Your Heart in terms of showing what the band is really about. Amazing. The lyrics also go so well with the typecast songs (the Crush 40 songs that are in Sonic's shadow).

Very uplifting song, even for one inspired by racing.
