**Rate the Music: Week 24**
Good morning. I'm in a bit of a somber mood thanks to the tragic news of yesterday, as we bid a sorrowful farewell to the Prince of Darkness, Mr. Ozzy Osbourne. Truly a legend among us.

But he gave us the gift of music, as so many composers do. How we feel about it, well, that's what this series is about. Let us carry on the tradition of expressing how music moves us, if at all, as we explore the magical tunes of the video game industry. First, how about last week's Goro's Lair from Mortal Kombat?


One-Winged Angel (Final Fantasy 7) - 8.71
Aquatic Ambience (Donkey Kong Country) - 8.66
At Doom's Gate (Doom) - 8.375
Guile Stage Theme (Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo) - 8.25
Secret of the Forest (Chrono Trigger) - 8.14
Go Straight (Streets of Rage 2) - 8
Bloody Tears (Castlevania 2: Simon's Quest) - 7.85
Anything But Tangerines (Earthworm Jim 2) - 7.75
Green Hill Zone (Sonic the Hedgehog) - 7.72
Rainbow Road (Mario Kart 64) - 7.71
Fight Against Smithy (Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars) - 7.2
Halo (Halo: Combat Evolved) - 7.125
Spark Mandrill Stage (Mega Man X) - 7
Act 2 Part 2 (Ninja Gaiden) - 6.66
Ozar Midrashim (Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver) - 6.6
Breeze - In Monochrome Night (Silent Hill 3) - 6.25
Big Apple, 3AM (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle: Turtles in Time) - 6.16
Apocalypse Battle (X-Men Legends 2: Rise of Apocalypse) - 5.75
Still Alive (Mirror's Edge) - 5.5
The Instinct (Killer Instinct) - 5.42
Heaven (The Impossible Game) - 4.16
Goro's Lair (Mortal Kombat) - 4
The Jack Attack (You Don't Know Jack: Television) - 3.57


Yikes. Really giving that bottom spot a run for its money, huh? A 4 is well below average. They can't all be Guile's Stage Theme, I suppose.

Are we looking at a repeat for this week's tune? Now, you may look at this week's entry and think to yourself, "Hey, there's already a Mega Man song up there on that list!" Wrong! There is a Mega Man X song up there on that list! No classic series! Plus, we'll be revisiting a lot of these games down the road anyway. With all that said, here's Blast Man Stage from Mega Man 11!





No, I didn't pick one of the old school titles. I believe we should give everything a shot. So, what do say? How much of a, uh, blast is this theme? Does it rank among the classics? I leave it up to you. Until next week!



No matter what may happen to me, just remember Lzzy Hale gave me the bedroom eyes...



...again.

Just wondering y you went with 11... prolly the only classic I ent played... music doesnt feelt "classic" bc the game isn't done in retro style, which makes it the only other one besides 8 to do that

Dont love the song tbh... probly need to hear it during the stage for better context...

BTW the best songs from classic megaman series I would go with are Gemini Man and Snake Man from 3, Charge Man from 5, Opening stage from 7, of Course Doctor Wily from 2,and maybe Galaxy Man from 9...

I dunno how I should grade this. It's pretty weak, and it's from a company that has made bangers.

Do I judge it on it's own or comparatively.... will have to think.

My first thought was "there was a Mega Man 11?"

Somehow I can't remember anything about this game for some reason. After looking at some screens and video, I must have thought it looked too much like a mobile game at the time and quickly lost all interest in it and forgot about it.

For the song itself, gave it a 5. Sounds very average on its own and for a series that has some really great music.

Yeah, this sounds pretty average, I'll give it a 5 too.
