Awesome / The Megas

Go To

  • Look at the tracklist for Sparked a War. Having their music featured in the official trailers for Mega Man Universe.
  • Scent Blasters is hilariously awesome.
  • Programmed to Fight is one for Crash Man. He manages to overpower his own programming long enough for Mega Man to stand victorious over the battle, either by letting the final blow be dealt, or killing himself.
  • Harder Than Steel is pretty awesome. Hard Man is an old fighter who fears he's gone soft over the years. With Mega Man challenging him, it's his chance to either prove he's as tough as ever, or go down in a blaze of glory. The crowd's cheering for him when he shows up, they still believed in Hard Man.
  • I Refuse (To Believe) is one for Mega Man. He puts the brakes on the downward spiral he's been on since the end of Get Equipped to save Dr. Light and Proto Man from their own slides into darkness. And Melody From The Past confirms that Proto Man was saved from his own rage.
  • Heart of Fire is almost a motivational anthem about Simon traveling through the Clocktower to face Dracula's right-hand man, Death. The song goes on to describe Death showing fear as Simon strikes him down.
    You can feel it burn,
    Somewhere deep within.
    Death comes for all men,
    Now you come for
    him.
  • Queen Medusa having the tables soundly turned on her in Stalker.
  • X hasn't played a huge role so far in the Megas' discography, with the main X-era song being Chill Xmas - which is entirely about a pause in the conflict. Rogumer Storm has him step up to the plate, going head-to-head with Storm Eagle while the narrator doubts whether such an old machine can really live up to the Mega Man legacy. Then X takes Storm Eagle down before the song hits the two minute mark and dispels any doubt: he's Mega Man's successor, all right.
    Watch as the eagle dies,
    Falling from the burning skies,
    Blue, a shadow taking form,
    One has stood against the storm...
  • Some of the lines are just great, even in some songs that aren't otherwise notably badass.
    Wood Man: It'll take more to stop this war than a little boy in blue. When the leaves fall, so will you. ("Carved from Mighty Oak")
    Mega Man: The road that I walk is a gathering storm. ("History Repeating, Part 2 (One Last Time)")
    Top Man: I'm told I can cut a rug, but tonight it's gonna bleed. ("Can't Stop the Top")
    Needle Man: If that's who I am, then I'll fight who I am! ("The Haystack Principle")
    Snake Man: You can fight for the steel, or die beneath my heel. It's up to you. ("Walk Away from Light")
    Hard Man: You don't just break the mold, you beat. it. DOWN! (Harder Than Steel)
    Skull Man: Tell me hero, if you’re so brave, come and join me, dig your own grave. The skull will make you kneel! (Cracked Skulls)
