Street Fighter III 2nd Impact Music - Sao Paulo (Sean Stage)

[TheThirdstrike69]

When the Brazil parade starts

[PSNGreyLynx]

Aw sean back when you were broken

[YoungLupe]

I can really get wit this... Love the game and I definitely love the music!

[AnotherFanima]

This is the best fight song ever. Not my favorite SF song ever, but definitely the best fighting song ever. This song really gives you that mindset of "This is my time. I have to prove myself."

[MetalSonicDash]

this could fit in a mario kart game.

[TheOneWWEGuy]

@MetalSonicDash lol, so true!

[DANIBEBITO12]

@MetalSonicDash mario kart is a piece of shit dont compare that fat bitch mario with this

[OreDaiyoWarioDaiyo]

Thats Samba mixed with Jazz =D

[Killerdesh]

@OreDaiyoWarioDaiyo it also name as "latin jazz" bro ;D

[tiradegrandmarshal]

2I Sean: "Don't call me Dan!" (proceeds to rape all but two characters in the entire cast.)

Capcom between 2I and 3S: "Sean, you're the new Dan."

*cries*

[Forteoverload]

@tiradegrandmarshal You have won 5 internets sir!

[05guile]

sean does have respect fei.long does'nt have respect.

[PromWolf]

Haha this is awesome it reminds me of 90's house tracks from the likes of dj sneak or paul johnson

[ZioIsPwnzor]

Back when Sean was decent but now he's terrible in Third Strike.

[tiradegrandmarshal]

@ZioIsPwnzor Better than decent. He was top tier. Imagine the best parts of 3S Chun and Ken put together in one character and you have 2I Sean.

[ultm8ninja]

Ono was singing this song when he announced he was going to Brasil game show

[XRaiser0]

@ultm8ninja Everyone keeps saying this but honestly I'm expecting Blanka(Ono's favorite -_-) instead of Sean, unfortunately. Maybe we'll get both?

[KrakenRouge]

0:54 and 1:49 marvelous

[machogrubba14]

thsi song is great! i think sean represents braziliians better than Blanka... not all brazillians were raised in a jungle, green, and hairy...

[Darkyellow327]

Cacpom needs to get the Darkstalkers sound team back together because they made by far the best background music for all of Capcom's fighting games. From 1994-1999 they were untouchable. 

[biohazard724]

They nerfed him harder and harder with each game solely because the dev team got the idea that each game needed a joke character. Thanks Dan.

[ryu11]

@biohazard724 I thought it was because they thought he was overpowered in Second Impact? He is pretty damn good in that game.

[biohazard724]

@ryu11 He's good in all three games, but I never saw him as overpowered. To me he was always below the Big Three shotos and not in need of any sort of nerf. His joke status is even more obvious in his 3 endings where in 3rd strike he's made to look like a chump in his AND Ken's endings.

[ryu11]

@biohazard724 Definitely agree there, Sean is one of my favorites and deserves a lot more respect. He happens to be my favorite Shoto character. (Not that I particularly like any of the others)

I did find his endings a bit underwhelming, seeing my 3rd favorite character in SF3 getting his ass kicked as a reward for beating cheap Gill. -.- But I guess they were trying to establish that Sean needs to train more. Regardless Sean needs to brought back in a main SF, fuck tiers, Sean is great.

[biohazard724]

@ryu11 I'd love to see all of the pupils come back in SF 5 and show off how far they've come. Sean, Sakura, and Karin deserve some time to shine. It seems like the only characters that were trained by elder warriors that are treated with any respect are Yun & Yang.

[HumorousLOL]

@biohazard724 Ken's son!!

[biohazard724]

@HumorousLOL That'd be cool too

[Renegade466isback]

@HumorousLOL

lolol Ken was living that real life BrazilBang sean is the outcome

[HumorousLOL]

@Renegade466isback Oh god if that was true..

[biohazard724]

@ryu11 I'd love to see all of the pupils come back in SF 5 and show off how far they've come. Sean, Sakura, and Karin deserve some time to shine. It seems like the only characters that were trained by elder warriors that are treated with any respect are Yun & Yang.

[MobianShoopIndustry]

@ryu11 Sean is respecable. Thought I hate his fucking annoying mini-game he's good fun to play as.

[ZiggyKick921]

HEY!!

My name's Sean also, we share the same skin color (Black) & I LOVE Street Fighter!

So it's only a coincidence that I have a look-alike in the game!

The only difference that I am NOT from Brazil...

[bartdude82]

@ZiggyKick921 wow small world! my name is Sean too AND I'm black! I'm from New York though lol

[nasasakahaza]

@ZiggyKick921 HAHAH MY FRIEND IS JUST LIKE SEAN HE IS BRAZILLIAN

[BeserkSlasher223]

@ZiggyKick921 lol sum people say I look like Balrog wit a mix of Dan

[BarmSchulz]

@BeserkSlasher223 I'm a mixture of Ryu and Dan :P

[thangQanime]

@ZiggyKick921 Actually not really. Your name is very common and I'm sure you don't look like him. You probably wish you do though.

[machogrubba14]

the best scean soundtrack! :)

of all the 3 versions of street fighter 3

dance brazillian man dance!

[dajamsteryo]

This fits Sean pretty well I think lol. Though I can see Elena doing Capoeria to this too.

[iTzUNwritten]

u can hear the darkstalker style music ;] love that jazza dub style

[iHateNeggers]

they better make the 2i and new gen stages dlc for 3soe. although I would've preferred capcom to include em in oe the first place but that's never happening. :(

[ChidoriSnake]

deejay would be proud of sean's theme

[InuYasha5081]

sean's best theme out of the three

[theSolo33]

TORNADE!

[U4rikmind]

in all respect for SF4's music, SF3's music was done in the mid 90's when alot of hip hop was at its best and thats how SF3's music became influenced

[capnbarfy]

@U4rikmind Except this particular track is influenced by some good old school samba... and the majority of the SF3 tracks were mostly influenced by jazz, house, and DnB (unless those styles are considered to be a part of hip hop...I dunno).

Even in 3rd strike, you'll find bits of grunginess (thinking of Remy & Hugo's stages). The only real hip hop I've found were the rapping intro/select screen in 3rd strike. SF3's music is far more diverse than people are giving credit for.

[/music nerd]

[U4rikmind]

@capnbarfy very informative, thanks. I too am a big fan of SF3's music and its gameplay. I think its good and bad that its music isn't well known because if it was well known then it would be played out.

[haduken221]

This song is relaxing.

[lordkiku2]

Man is flawed...

That's why I love 'em...

Uh... Humans... not the male gender... At least not like THAT... I think...

Um... Drop the subject?

[Smokingfilla]

Is sean a kid or what?

[technologick1183]

@Smokingfilla

Yes. He's in his late teens.

[flmae46]

@Smokingfilla Yeah, the youngest playable street fighter to date at that.

[Gxyz222]

@damienfeb01 we are all the same inside and out, it is only our minds that are different! I'm just a fan of series like Street Fighter because they mesh different cultures and people so well, everyone's a winner!

[cart13tag]

Sean vs Lucky Glauber

[Domosuke]

@cart13tag battle of the basketballs. :P.

[ep307]

sean's same is pronounced like shawn

[swl9380]

damn i luv this song, should of use it in 3rd strike mix it,

this song saids lets fuckin dance yall, u know it those big ass and thick thighs as braziling chicks shakeing to beat lol

[Gxyz222]

@swl9380 two word: Andressa Soares!

[haduken221]

Sean had a bright future but was disqualified for fighting basketballs

[Maurcas1]

Reminds me of Breath of fire 3 music

[ryubaks]

If Blanka was in SF3, that would be his stage & theme. And Sean would've still had his New Generation stage.

[haduken221]

Well Grugey ryu is the main character in the capcom series and popular so at the time of the New Generation Ryu and Ken must be masters or Capcoms fan favorite characters.

[jkash7]

BEST STREET FIGHTERS EVER MADE IS

1) SF3: NEW GENERATION

2) SF3: 2ND IMPACT

& LAST BUT DEFINITELY NOT LEAST.....

3) SF3: 3RD STRIKE

[Guergy]

Speaking of Sean, I heard he was supposed to be the main character or least the main shotokan player but they stuck with Ryu and Ken. Is this true?

[MyFoodIsBad]

@Guergy

Originally he was gonna be the only shoto fighter in SF3. But Ryu and Ken fanboys BAAAWED at not being able to use them, so they put them back in.

[Guergy]

@MyFoodIsBad It is also odd considering that it was supposed to be about the new generation but instead they keep bringing back the old characters. I like Ken and Ryu as much as the next person but they need to be put to rest, I mean Alex was supposed to be the main character of the series but instead he thrashed by Ryu in the ending. So much the 'New' Generation.

[MasterMacLeod]

@Guergy Sean was never supposed to be the main character, Alex was. And yes, he was going to be the only Ansatsuken fighter in the game, but during the game's PLANNING (before alphas and betas were made, that is) they realized it would be stupid not to include Ryu and Ken, so they returned. Anyways, when SFII was made, they faced a similar story.

[kidgoku233]

@MasterMacLeod Actually it wuz suppose 2 b yun and Yang but Capcom had other plans cuz they new dat they wuz goin bitch and wine over having no old skool characters.

Clues:Yun and Yang having similar fighting styles as in Ken and Ryu

another hint: SF3: NEW GENERATION

[MasterMacLeod]

@kidgoku233 Yun and Yang were never supposed to be the main characters in SFIII and the fact they were clones in NG doesn't change that other fact. I know about this better than everybody else.

[SuperJacker45]

It's kinda samba in da beginning!

[raskolnikoffh]

thank for the link "loco" ! i really really luv this theme!

[bartix64]

kinda sound like sonic cd music XD

[network323]

I imagen myself at a nice club playing nothing but wonderful music like this and all laid back. The women are flowing,,,everyones having a good time...and everyone is vibing.

[Joneshing]

@network323 parece un paradiso

[Lioyd1rving]

Someone needs to fuse this with "Funky Heat" from Street Hoop. DO IT

[meusapi]

@Renegade466isback We need the instrumental version on MP3 of that remix with Timbaland you made.Or even a video with just the instrumental.Could you do that buddy?

[TheBlackSMA]

He not only does a shoryuken but he throws up BOTH hands. You must be out of your mind to think you can win

[flmae46]

@TheBlackSMA ACtually he only did that in his most recent carnation on Third Strike do your research noob. Because in 2I he was king.

[TheBlackSMA]

@flmae46 I never stated what game he used it in. I only stated that he utilized the move as a character. And he did use the Dragon Smash in 2nd Impact with it being better than the one in 3rd Strike. YOU do your research noob.

[flmae46]

@TheBlackSMA Did he throw both of his fist up at the same time in the 1st two? Or did he pop up and then smack down with both.

[tsonukarabocado]

LoL, São Paulo was the city were I was born =)

[nefiurki]

batucada pra voce!!! brasil em nossos coracoes !!!

[TLJthethird]

Whoever idea it was to nerf Sean need to be slapped upside their head.

[Animeoatku85jr]

@TLJthethird blame Yoshi ono for that.

[MatsudaSean]

Everyone just needs to shush and accept that theres anepic black person with Ryu and Ken's fighting style! I mean damn he looks more black than anything.

[TehComs]

Humf...this song makes me wanna eat a bannana. Does that make me a bad person?

[supergameboy94]

@TehComs No, I think it makes you Blanka.....

[TheTKC]

Really love the music in 2nd Impact. It has the best music out of the 3 imo

[hyastu]

@TheTKC I agree, 3s music was really good too, but the melodies in New Generation/ Second Impact were beautiful

[Chuckwunoso]

Bust a move!

[Archonus]

This is the music that plays when Sean is macking on the ladies in the club.

[LilScotty777]

also........I CAN JAM TO THIS ALL DAY!!!

[LilScotty777]

will every one stop arguing about where hes from...geez HES FROM BRAZIL OKAYY GOSHHH

[sandmasterflex]

favorite character of all

[Mizunodragon]

Guapman is right, nearly half of brazilian people is black. And many people who ar'nt black, is in some degree descendant of black people. São Paulo tem a maior colônia japonesa outside Japan. So it's normal Sean is 1/4 japanese. What annoys me is his name and the fact he likes to play basketball. There are many people here who prefers basketball of course, but football is our "trademark". And the name...shessh! Many people here wouldn't even be able to say his name.

[MEGAGUY21]

SICK

this is song so smooth that it make a smoothie seem chuckle!

[garity911]

This Is A Sick Track I Could Free On This If U Don't Know whats up with these funky jamz then man u missin out good music

[TLJthethird]

I really don't understand why they didn't bring back Sean for Street Fighter 4. He definitely would've been a better addition to the roster instead of Dan.

[strykah92]

@TLJthethird Erm, his age lol? But with that said Ibuki would be 15 in the events of SSFIV and she still made the cut.

Crapcom, please, where are you going with these laughable retcons?

[TLJthethird]

@strykah92 Honestly I was disregarding the story because it makes no sense. And Sean was my favorite on 3 that's why I wanted him on 4.

[SFNDMK]

@strykah92 you think thats bad god knows how old yun was in alpha 3 loool

[guapman11]

ok not a big deal but all yall pissin me off, not evry black person is african american, you have 2 b both african AND american 2 b called dat, the kids from brazil, brazilians are a bout half black nearly half of their population, got dammit read a book stop sittin in fornt of a screen all day jebus crimeney

[lilmane2373]

very cool calm n collected

[NukFly89]

ALL AFRICAN AMERICANS ARE THE SAME PEOPLE WE WERE JUST SPLIT UP...-__-

[AngeISerenade]

i miss this kind of Street Fighter music  :'(

[MrJhonnyjulian]

I like japanese tunes, don't you?

[jjvictor66]

i live in são paulo and capcom made an epic error lol

this music is more like rio and santos...not são paulo....

[jjvictor66]

@CarvedGrape (¬_¬)'

[iverson25allen]

@CarvedGrape That statement was uncalled for bro.

[AngeISerenade]

Capcom PLEASE go back too the hip hop style of music.

My ears in heaven when you guys made 2nd impact & 3rd strike.

Please go back too this music.

[scorpion32030]

I live in sao paulo LOL !!!

[jerrod24]

Best Character in SF3, easily. If "Sean" were balanced like Ryu, Ken, or Akuma, he'd be suitable to be a final boss. Imagine an unblockable ground and pound. ILL.

[TLJthethird]

Next Street Fighter, they need to get the music composers from 3 and put characters such as Sean, Elena, the twins, Alex, just to name a few.

[pokyme]

TORNADE~!!!!!

[trapspeed97]

This theme is so awesome, it should be remixed!!!

[aroperdope]

@trapspeed97

I agree. Yet another cool sean track

[BlazeReborn2]

Sean's father is Japanese (hence the Matsuda surname), but he was born on Brazil.

[HIGH777ROLLER]

@BlazeReborn2

Sean's paternal grandfather is japanese , not his father.

[BlazeReborn2]

@HIGH777ROLLER You're right, just double-checked.

Thanks bro.

[Honmaru74]

DONAEEEEE

[JayRose1000]

Best Sean theme (yes, better than his NY themes).

[Gxyz222]

Everybody, all together, SAMBA DO BRASIL!!!

[scorpion32030]

SEAN É FODA !!!

[HyperSonicXtreme]

SAMBA!!

[mario6515]

Well if Sean is in Super Street Fighter IV. Dan or Ken would be Sean's Rival

[flmae46]

@mario6515 Im thinking Ken Sean doesnt know SHIT story wise hes using ninjutsu his 1st fighting style soooo basically, Sean would play NOTHING like he did in III, but he will return in V as lead

[sleepnabox]

@flmae46 been confirmed Capcom gives a rats ass about progression, canon, consistency in the SF universe.

[xxxREDOXxxx]

my favorites are sean and elena btz elena is HOT

[MKchamp726]

if seans hadou burst is his hadouken can sean be stronger than ryu and ken?

[NewZen41]

Technically, it's a rush version of the Hadouken, but who knows. If he continues to train, probably Ken, but I don't know about Ryu.

[seanfresh88]

i tho sean was black

[smoothrasin]

He is black

[seanfresh88]

so your saying he African American?

i tho he was brazilian! i don kno!

[Renegade466isback]

African Americans arent the only black people in the world you know

[motherplayer]

@Renegade466isback he has some japanese though doesnt he?

[Renegade466isback]

I believe so, his surname "Matsuda" is definately Japanese sounding

[MysteryEzekude]

@Renegade466isback Ha ha, it's the same surname as Touta Matsuda from Death Note.

[WingZero1223]

@Renegade466isback according to his bio on fightersgeneration, he's 1/4 japanese, like me.

[seanfresh88]

yes! he is mixed with Japanese!

[RebbyAnn08]

oh yea i remember reading that he is brazilian & japanese!

[MatsudaSean]

@motherplayer Yea Sean's 1/4 japanese.

[hyphy1985]

@motherplayer He's Afro Brazilian mixed with Japanese Brazilian.

[abSOULuteD]

@Renegade466isback true theres black french, black british, black canadians, haitians too

[Tekknight007]

@Renegade466isback I think Venture Bros said it best.

"I hunt Blackula's, black vampires"

"You mean AFRICAN AMERICAN vampires!"

"Is a British vampire African American?"

"Uh..."

"BLACKULAS"

[guapman11]

@Renegade466isback actually hes not african american because hes not american to begin with, he is brazilian meaning he has african in him already, probably mixed with some type of south american indian

[Renegade466isback]

@guapman11

When did I say he was African American? scroll back down the page and read the comments in order, I told that guy that Sean is a Black Brazilian and he didnt seem to understand it

[Samurai7able]

@Renegade466isback Yeah your right he's actually a Brazilian-Japanese mix like Lyoto Machida

[lordzeus69]

@seanfresh88 brazil ppl are black ppl but the white ppl was over their having sex and made it mix over their

[seanfresh88]

@lordzeus69 i fully understand dat but i thought he was black as in African American Black not brazilan black!

[lordzeus69]

@seanfresh88 Sean is half Japanese and half black

[djizzle62]

@seanfresh88 only dif between "black" brazilians and african americans is that their boat didn't land here in the us.

(not a racist joke, im black)

[TheSpinningBirdChick]

He's Afro-Brazilian with a hint of Japanese.

[seanfresh88]

thank you

[shoNuuff]

How do you do that? Thats just not common.

[TheSpinningBirdChick]

What do you mean it's not common?

[Gxyz222]

Black pride, yeah, black is beautiful, baby!

[flmae46]

@Gxyz222 to bad hes not black

[Gxyz222]

Okay, so Sean isn't 100% black(depending on the maternal side of his family), but check out the music, it's samba based(Bahia style)! I say he's still leaning more towards African Brazilian side rather than the Indian side, or the Euro side of the country.

[flmae46]

@Gxyz222 he's 1/2 brazillian and 1/2 japanese

[Gxyz222]

@flmae46, that's good enough for me, dude. Black or white(or Asian), Sean's still a bad ass character, and no one can ever take that away from him. HADOU, BURST!

[grassinigrassini]

@Gxyz222 lol at bahia style...bahia traditional music is mostly from african culture or axé or forró.samba has its roots on são paulo(with unhappy themes usually) and rio de janeiro(with happier themes usually)

[Gxyz222]

@grassinigrassini I guess like any other great nation on this planet, Brazil has it's apparent beauty and it's ugly truths. But those Brazilians are tough, especially the street kids(like Sean)!

[sandmasterflex]

@TheSpinningBirdChick he's black ryu =D
