[MrRedshadowX]

Ding ding ding ding... Ding ding ding ding... Da Ding ding da ding ding...

[idiots30]

$1.50 solo

[chinopisces]

I used to play Double Dragon, but then I took an elbow to the knee...

[tradecycles]

THIS AINT SOME ORDINARY MUSIC. IT CHARGES ME LIKE AN ADAPTOR CHARGES YOUR MOBILE PHONE.

[KastorKid]

@tradecycles

that was fresh! I'm going to start saying that.

[29larron]

Somebody build a time machine allready!

[budkin]

I must have spent 100 bucks playing this game back in the day.

[Romusk86]

I think I prefer the 8-bit version. Sounds more metal.

[chinopisces]

@Romusk86: I was just thinking the same thing.

[StuUngar]

True story. When I was a kid, I got into a scuffle with another kid. Fight was on, and I kept getting punched square in the face. I couldn't catch him and continued to get jabbed in the face. He busted my nose, and I was enraged at this point.

I don't recall how the hell I got him in this position. But I had him by the hair, bent over in front of me, and proceeded to bash him with my knee. Broke his nose, and blood poured out like a water spout. He ended up pinning me down somehow.......

[StuUngar]

@StuUngar and starting punching me in the face. I remember not feeling any of those punches, but simply looking up at amazement as how much blood was pouring out. Didn't matter, I had already won the fight. He ended up screaming to his mom.

My friends dad is concerned bc im drenched in blood & my buddy proudly says, "thats not his blood."

All the kids who saw that fight were DD fans. The only thing that made the fight epic & remembered to this day was that I used Billy Lee's knee to the face.

[figment1988]

@StuUngar nice story. who knew that the knee smash would end up being a trump card to your advantage.

[ClipperQuik42]

GODDAMN THESE WERE THE FUCKIN DAYS!! I KNOW I SPENT AT LEAST 1,000 quarters on this game!!!

[soboboo]

I can't count how many quarters I've shelled into this game!!!!!

Still.....all in all......SOME OF THE BEST MEMORIES OF MY LIFE. :)

[frigginjoe]

Hmmm! Hmmm! Hmmm!  ... Hmmm!..Hmmm! Hmmm!

Yeah the elbow was the best move.

[xTsuRyux]

The most manly arcade game ever.

[RightWingHunter666]

Best theme ever!

[MisterNickOtine]

the band dragonforce stole the double dragon theme and put it in their song "black fire" at 3:42. let them know billy and jimmy will kick their ass.

[Exvzz]

@MisterNickOtine God damnit, Studioforce.

[lukstarfucker]

[calamaty]

Thanks for the theme every other upload is either a remix or an updated version of the theme not the classic one that inspired it.

[thadea]

ah the 80s...when arcade machines had good games and not bean bag games

[TigressOrchid]

Meeeeen, this is the best arcade music I ever heard. I must have your tuning. But tell me you add there little bass dont you ? Its so perfect you did. i download it as 320kbps mp3. Men i love you.

[risefm]

This is the song that plays as shit blows up in slow motion

[NigeThePython]

[NigeThePython]

@LAHrebirth nooo! knee em in the head 2 or 3 times, lob them over ur shoulder, then stand back to them , when they rise ELBOW IN THE FACE!!! lol!!!! yeah! every time i see a barrel i wana kick it into ppl's legs lol

[thewarrior46]

This song would OVER POWER every arcade in the room at the time.

CLASSIC

[TonyMajestic]

@thewarrior46 You ain't lying. After awhile, the arcades I went to would turn down the volume on it.

[LAHrebirth]

@thewarrior46 I feel like kicking and kneeing someone in the head repeatedly when listening to this

[RikiOhRed]

@thewarrior46

Double Dragon Arcade Machine: DOUBLE DRAGON BITCH, YOU DON'T EVEN KNOOOOOWWWWW!!!!

Other Machines: HOOOOOLLLYYYY

Kids: SHIIIIIITTTT!!!!

*BOOOOM!!!*

[thewarrior46]

@RikiOhRed lmao!!

[TigressOrchid]

@RikiOhRed fuck you are RIGHT...

[ryoga316]

Any chance I can get a .wav file of this? I want to include it in my version of Kakutou Densetsu as the theme for the Hattori/Double Dragon Twins.

[TigressOrchid]

@ryoga316 you can download this as mp3, 320 kbps

[BaronNathanel]

playing this on the arcade back then made you a god among men for 25 cents!

[region1111]

some of the best music ever made

[rkjdavis]

YES!!! MADE MY DAY! I wish I could go back in time to these days at the old arcade. Think I was about 12 when DD came out! AWESOME!! Video games have come a long way.

[Honoric5]

Thank you for this arcade rendition. Man I pumped a lot of quarters in the ole game box to slam heads for justice! And save Marion! Blast from the past!

[JimmyVonJim]

this version has richer instruments, better bass, and a superior flow in the beat, but the nes version has technicality, speed, and more fills filled with brief bursts of terse melody. they are about equal in overall goodness, but for different reasons. that's what i like about them. hadn't heard this song for years or even thought about it. that's what i like about youtube.

[dragonpullman]

It sounds like a Sega Genesis.

[figment1988]

this was the tune i wanted to hear. not the arranged soundtrack. thanx :o)

[UndineStorm]

AHHHHH finally. All the other "orignial themes" suck. This is the best. True Arcade music.

[larandito]

Thank you, ReceiveDeath. Please, post more themes or scenes of arcades of ´80s

[larandito]

thank you very much for this!! I miss these times....

[ReceiveDeath]

me too :( better times, definitely... epic times!

[danisageeza]

@larandito 4 real! I literally skipped a beat when I played this....these bloody youngsters nowadays eh? LOL

[sheargatru]

@larandito Yes! Those were special!
