For some reason, the president of Brazil used the soundtrack from Sonic the Hedgehog (2006) for his promotional video. Yep, our SoA noticed it immediately and reacted (positively, I guess).

Today in "Places we didn't expect to hear the Sonic 2006 soundtrack": https://t.co/BKN5abp0gt

Naka-san noticed it too, and commented as follows by tweeting a game news article titled 'President of the 'country of SEGA fans' Brazil uses music from 'Sonic the Hedgehog', appealing the country with dramatic BGM for final boss battle:

ブラジルでのメガドラとソニックの人気は本当に嬉しいですよね。
「セガ大国」ブラジルの大統領、PR動画で『ソニック・ザ・ヘッジホッグ』の楽曲を利用。壮大なラスボス戦のBGMで同国をアピール https://t.co/vWWthH6biB @denfaminicogameより

"It' makes me happy that Mega Drive and Sonic are very popular in Brazil." - Naka-san.

Ohtani-san, the one who made the music, was curious too!

The final battle begins?🤔 https://t.co/cWGxuF4qhn

Naka-san found a video of a group which arranged and played the song 'SWEET SWEET SWEET' by Masato Nakamura of the band DREAMS COME TRUE.

ソニック2のエンディング曲でDREAMS COME TRUEの中村正人さんが作って下さった、SWEET SWEET SWEETと言う曲です。結婚式で友人の方が演奏してくれたようです。素敵ですね。 https://t.co/Xtb4KjvfbF

— Yuji Naka / 中　裕司 (@nakayuji) February 27, 2019

"This song is called 'SWEET SWEET SWEET', a song which was kindly composed by Masato Nakamura of the band DREAMS COME TRUE as the ending song for Sonic 2. It looks like it was played for the wedding of their friend. That is wonderful."

It really is a nice arrangement with beautiful voices and ukulele sound. You should listen to it!

FYI, as you may already have noticed, the song was also used for Sonic 06 as Sonic story's ending theme. There are Japanese and English versions!

Hint for next game? Nakamura-san's new tweet might be related to Sonic 06

News from 2019.02.26

Nakamura-san, the producer of Sonic Forces and Sonic the Hedgehog (2006), tweeted something that could be a hint of something!

His tweet consists of one arrow pointing to the right, and an image that seems to be a concept art of Soleanna Festival from Sonic 06.
The tweet style resemble that which he used for sneak-peeks of Sonic Forces back then, so it is highly possible that this is related to upcoming games.

What do you think of it? Could this be hinting at Sonic 06 remake or sequel?
SXSW is coming up in mid-March; they could be preparing an announcement for new Sonic contents..
