Audiosurf - Phoenix Wright: The Musical - August Day

I was really excited when I head about this project. Who could imagine? All that lawyery goodness...IN A MUSICAL!
This song is about Phoenix's preparation (or lack, thereof) for his first trial - defending Larry Butz. It shows how inefficient, unprepared, and lazy Phoenix is, and how seriously he doesn't take the wind-up, until he realises that he could be late already. As he rushes through town, he bumps into Jack Hammer (Turnabout Samurai: Victim), Lotta Hart (Turnabout Goodbye: Witness), Dick Gumshoe (Head Homicide detective), Maggey Byrde (Policewoman/Waitress), Cody Hackins (Turnabout Samurai: Witness). Penny Nichols (Turnabout Samurai: Assistant) and Furio Tigre (Loanshark [and protagonist impersonator]). Half of these people don't have any place outside of this song (Jack's dead when he's next mentioned and Maggey isn't even in this game)

I'm impressed with the voice-acting in this song. The voices sound out-of-place, given that the games are technically anime, but it also sounds as I would imagine. It all sounds splendid, and I can't wait for the project's release.

And this is just a guess, but "See that guy runnin'? Like hes in some race!" is Jack Hammer? Sorry for the multiple questions...

[Noxedwin]

@karatekid778 It's fine.

Yes, that's Jack. He also says the congruent line: "I think he's part of that big murder case." The stanza in general is a duet with Lotta Hart.

[karatekid778]

@Noxedwin Thanks. One last thing. The samurai cards+ rock paper scissors is cody and penny, right?

[Noxedwin]

@karatekid778 yes

[karatekid778]

"My paycheck comes in the mail" is Furio, right?

[Noxedwin]

@karatekid778 No. That's Gumshoe. Because after, Maggey states that he "won't need to borrow bus fare from the guys in jail". Why would Tigre visit jail?

TIgre's voice is distinctly different.

"Tender Lender, friend or foe. Spender mentor for your dough."

He speaks with an odd accent, it's hard to miss.

@karatekid778 I think I know why. It's because if you listen hard enough you'll realize the background music is sort of like Congratulations Everybody. Also known as April May's theme.

[karatekid778]

@Noxedwin Why do I get the feeling that "Spiky-haired JERK!" is April may...?

[karatekid778]

I just noticed Furio O_o

[karatekid778]

@Noxedwin I'll look for it in the vid O_o
