Double Dragon II - Low Pursuit(arranged Thème).

[IRRxerum525]

An extract from Wikipedia for "Easy Lover" query: "The Mission 1 theme in the arcade version of Double Dragon II: The Revenge (Mission 2 in the NES version), composed by Kazunaka Yamane, is an instrumental rendition of the song" - just to make things clear ;)

[huoda1000]

it's a cover of easy lover... the game and the song are contemporaneous

[LiamTheGreat]

Someone needs to mash this up with the vocals from easy lover

[danNYx86]

phil collins? LOL

[ContraCommando]

cool ass tune

[HeadcrabLamarr]

Somebody should crop the lyrics of Easy Lover over this version, I have no doubt that it would awesome!

[SamusDrake]

I love that cover art work! So cool!

[AbhiB]

Phil Collins should have made a cameo on this level

[LinkMarioSamus]

@RayofJustice According to Wikipedia, this is supposed to be a rendition of "Easy Lover".

[HeyArnoldsspleen]

@RayofJustice : Sorry, but you'd have to dumb not to know this sounds similar to Easy Lover

[DSN107]

easy lover copy this song is not the other way around

[BeatsFromDP]

I remember going apeshit over this game coming out on the NES, and I've always loved the song Easy Lover, but never until now have I made the correlation. This is hilarious to me.

[DaSurreal1da]

I never made the connection until now, The likeness between the 2 songs are uncanny.

[Pazzled]

Yeah it's Easy Lover...

The composer even admitted it was an homage to the song...it's just slowed down. To the person that actually uploaded this video, how the fuck can you not see the similarities?

The similarity is actually very prevalent as soon as the the song begins, the entire intro is the exact same fucking intro the the song Easy Lover.

I found the song that inspired the first level of Streets of Rage 2, put in Bass Value - Do You Wanna Party...same fucking song. :)

[JetTurboman]

@Pazzled Take it easy man...

[tdark987]

Then I suggest you listen to it again. Both the beat and the chord progression are the same, and the intros are almost exactly the same.

Up until 0:44 this could easily pass for a remix of Easy Lover.

[agetro82]

Yeah the beginning is exactly the same. Well this version of course, the original nes version didnt have that intro.

[agetro82]

Sounds kinda like Easy Lover by Phil Collins

[junito52]

IT IS

[as2421]

@agetro82 it's actually quoted on the wiki of Easy lover that this is a take on it.

[DJCandyManMike]

@as2421

I would have called them liars straight to their faces if they'd said otherwise. I think the similarity to "Easy Lover" is what makes it sound so epic, though!

[BodaciousWickerman]

@agetro82 It is. It's an instrumental reworking by Kazunaka Yamane especially for the game.

[MDthornton83]

@agetro82 The similarity is unmistakable. It does sound a lot like Easy Lover.

[Vijin321]

I've always loved the Double Dragon 2 Box art.

[LADYTHUNNDER]

i love this track sounds so 80s like it!!

[kamikazecosby0]

Easy lover!! she'll get a hold on you, believe it!

[BenJabituya]

Like no other! Before you know it, you'll be on your knees!

[devmanification]

@kamikazecosby0 I didn't know Phil Collins sang for Double Dragon II. That soundtrack will sell for sure!

[rebaz]

@kamikazecosby0 i was working out, when that song came up, and i instantly got reminded of this.

[ThunderForce6]

Ich liebe Double Dragon 2....(nes)

mfg tom

[LegacyBornBetter]

haha omg this takes me back to the past... too play some shitty games that suck ass?? (AVGN) lol jk this is a badass song for my favorite nes game!

[Nindz81]

the c64 version of this was a little more bassy

[MDthornton83]

Awesome.

[songoku350]

On topic,

The next Double Dragon game should feature Phil Collins and Michael Bolton beating up thugs in the streets.

[lazor456]

Double Dragon : Ballad Brawler

[songoku350]

or

Double Dragon: Crooner Chaos

[tdvu]

or

Double Dragon: Gentle Fists

[spakey1983]

Yeah i thought the intro sounded like easy lover! Sorry for being late on the comment

[bushcraft80]

"Now don't try to change her, just leave her, leave her! You're not the only one, 'cause seeing is believing!"

Truly, this is Easy Lover!

[dman3431]

this music is from that song easy lover.

[HYBRIDARTS]

This art, is the best Double Dragon cover in all of its history ha

[bufandri]

The covers generally were better the ones of before that the ones of now

[Loader2K1]

@HYBRIDARTS: Oddly enough, the box art for Double Dragon 2 on NES was the same in all four of the regions it was released in (North America, Europe, Japan, and Austrailia). I assume the artist was a fan of Tetsuo Hara, the artist behind Hokuto No Ken, an anime/manga series where Double Dragon was inspired from.

[trunxkam45]

@Loader2K1 actually it WAS tetsuo hara!!

[Loader2K1]

@trunxkam45: Really, this box art was drawn by him!? That's awesome to know. I was under the assumption it was from an imitator. Oddly enough, in the PC-Engine remake of Double Dragon 2, Billy and Jimmy Lee heavily resemble Hokuto No Ken characters Kenshiro and Falco respectively.

[abysmalvsmarcus]

i did get that phil collins vibe.

this shit sounds like a 80's action movie.

action jackson 2 n shit lol

[albertoalejandro0424]

Less than an action movie music it's like a training BGM for a Karate Kid rip off, you know, where the weak guy is tired of getting his ass kicked every day at school and some old asian man teach him his ancestors' secret arts (just because), then we see him training every where. Later we see them practicing a special move at the beach or in the country before some unknown martial arts championship where things are settled. Easy plots become classics.

[mab5458]

The saxaphone in this song makes me think of the Japanese video game Crime Crackers for some reason... I don't know why...

[ffx2003]

can you send a mp3 file to me? I like your jam.

[kingnyc2000]

Easy Lover.Phil Collins and Phil Bailey..lol

[hayabusakun]

Great song!

This may be a bit off-topic, but keep clicking so it plays at 0:04

The same music stab used in those "Gutsman's Ass" videos.

[ferchito7801]

double dragon hell yea

[pawel1818]

Guys you have right this theme and Easy Lover by Phil Collins and Philip Bailey are similar :D

[vegasuperior]

This is some true 80's music. This sounds like some music on the opening credits of Beverly Hills Cop...

[Kobashi81]

What the fuck? I didn't know that Phil Collins and Philip Bailey recorded this song.

[abysmalvsmarcus]

ha ha you stoopid

[SoulBlasterCannon]

They even have the helicopter in the left of the picture to make the similarity to Phil Collins' "Easy Lover" complete.

[Giggolo4hire]

good point

[420asebring]

To add even more to the connection, the helicopter in the actual game appears in the level with the "easy lover" song.

[Monkgangsta]

awesome game

[darkfakt]

Easy Lover lol

[Alemania1983]

Double Dragon II is the best game ever!!

[ferchito7801]

[karuk7575]

[Clay1604]

Best Game!

Best Theme Music!

Low Pursuit - Best Stage Music!!!

[Dmasterman]

You should also add the double dragons second level theme and the Phil collins song. h|t|t|p|:|/|/|e|a|s|y|l|o|v|i|­n|.|y|t|m|n|d|.|c|o|m|/

[beastweapon]

I don't think those two Japanese guys composed this: I think it was PHIL COLLINS!!!

[eam12]

Japanese guys did composed this but thay borrowed it from PHIL COLLINS when he was do the song "Easy Lover".

[karuk7575]

lol! phil collins..

[Moonblood00]

lol funny song,but catchy

[Sanallio]

best theme from NES games! :)

[oblivion2008ps3]

double dragon 2 is the best game for nes

[1game1music]

Great track.

[jregley]

The Double Dragon series is one of the best video game series ever made. The original arcade game is just stellar, the three on the NES were really good, and Super Double Dragon on the SNES was probably among the best in the series despite the fact that it was a rushed game and released while being incomplete.

This remix rocks. If anything, I'm plugging for a modern-system Double Dragon that adheres to the old-school predecessor principles. I'd buy it.

[psychowildchild]

@jregley Not to mention, Super Double Dragon is largely unappreciated to this day. Perhaps it was the beginning of the 2D fighting game craze/ era or the rising popularity of Street Fighter 2.

[Unicysis]

Dude, just one question - just where the hell can I get this????

[cLaRkDamn]

put in the google.. "double dragon dojo" a good web with music and other damn good stuff from the most amazing game!

[Unicysis]

It's okay, I already have the full soundtrack, except the final boss and ending credit music. The music is brilliant! Thanks anyway, man.

[cLaRkDamn]

when i was a child... i used to play arcade double dragon.. in my bedroom.. i really love that game

[Unicysis]

When I was a child, I used to play Double Dragon 2 on the NES. My brother and I would play on it in one of my dad's bedrooms all the time. I still love the game though. Every day, when I come home from work, I'll just play it on the emulator from my PC.

[aryinc]

she,s a easy lover lyrics is missing.

[carnalito81]

I love how 80's it sounds! =]

[swwhenry]

good!

[CRITTERBUSTERS]

If there ever was going to be a double dragon movie done properly this should be the music for the opening credits.

[CRITTERBUSTERS]

can u send me the song? or if its downloadable please tell me where!

[cLaRkDamn]

put in the google.. "double dragon dojo" a good web with music and other damn good stuff from the most amazing game!

[PinchySkree]

Poursuit?

[RealityFlash]

[PurpleFist]
