Here is the full English version of the song. After listening to both versions, the English version would more than likely be used in Sonic Frontiers.

How do you make the most emo rock Song ever but don't put Shadow in the game?

Listen to a sample of Sonic Frontiers' upcoming ending theme with ONE OK ROCK's song, "Vandalize"! SEGA has partnered with the popular Japanese rock band to deliver an astounding and fitting track to be paired with Sonic for his latest journey on the Starfall Islands.

[nja] Oh, seem's I've been ninja'd.

It's kinda weird for me that I'm already familiar with a band doing a song for the series, even if only in passing.

It's also weird to me that the song exists outside the context of the game.

Wait wait, this song was made before the Sonic partnership right? Because it definitely sounds like they say “f*** the pain away” in the japanese version [lol]

The same line sounds like “fight” in the Sonic version.

I Ts not the first time Sega has licensed a song guys, they did with Shadow and 06.

[up]Licensed or commissioned? I'm fairly sure all the songs from 06 are basically tailor made for the game.

Well, not counting All Hail Shadow, for obvious reasons, but that was still written for the series and can't really be separated from it anyway.

And technically they did that for the ending song in Sonic 2.

I have no issues with it, I just think it’s hilarious that there’s an official explicit version of a Sonic song.

[up][up][up] Both. Given there's a...explicit version of the song, it seems obvious the song wasn't made with Frontiers in mind and Sega just paid for the license to put it in the game.

Obviously they had to make a clean version.

[up][up][up][up][up][up]Funny you should mention that. I found three different versions of that song. The version Targetmaster Joe posted is the only one that is in Japanase, hence the title saying Japanese Version in the video's title. The version I posted here and the version I found later are completely in English with the same title. The only difference between the two is the one I posted here is censored. I checked out both the English and Japanse versions of teaser trailer for Frontier's ending song, and both versions use the censored version.

I'm reminded of how kid show KaBlam!'s theme song was a licensed cover of a ska song by a group called The Toasters, which originally had an F bomb in it.

On a related note, I would dig more ska and reggae inspired stage themes in Sonic. I mean, across the franchise we've had samba, salsa, bluegrass, blues, you name it. But I think there's only one reggae inspired theme at all, in Rush.

(entirely unrelated, but it just hit me that there's a stage in one of the Adventure games that shares a sample with one of my favorite dancehall tracks).

Shout out to a music track from Jet Set Radio Future having a detailed description of fellatio in the uncut version!

...Ahem, anyway...

I was just watching the overview of Frontiers on the Sonic youtube channel. Is this the first time a Sonic game has had such a thing? But I'm glad they did, because I was really unsure what the gameplay loop for Frontiers even was.

I remember Bowling for Soup had a few of their songs censored when Radio Disney would release them on their cds back in the day.

Given the overall confusion surrounding the game, yea I think an overview was needed.

Whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa, what?! One of my favourite bands ever, who I even got to see live a couple years back before things went to hell in a handbasket, is doing a Sonic song?! I never would have imagined this. This is wild.
