The long-awaited sequel was no slouch either. Sung by Dennis Martin, known best to Sega fans for singing the English songs on ''VideoGame/BurningRangers'', he provides the perfect vocals for a harder and edgier soundtrack composed by Mitsuyoshi and Fumio Ito. The band Music/{{Winger}} actually contributed to the soundtrack with individual members performing certain instruments for each track.

It was inevitable that this page be made.

When you thought joyful and uplifting vocals wouldn't work in a racing game, Sega's Takenobu Mitsuyoshi (arguably the Music/ScatmanJohn of video game music) would be glad to prove you wrong. The love shown in the music he composed for the series is almost infectious.

Sega learned the world wasn't ready for Mitsuyoshi's uplifting vocals, and decided to have his songs remixed by some of its awesome composers who fans of Franchise/SonicTheHedgehog would soon become very familiar with.
* The game features Eric Martin of Mr. Big (the band that performed the ending song of the ''Anime/{{Hellsing}}'' TV series), who provides the vocals for two songs: [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SRE9EM19UbQ "Sons of Angels"]] which is heard in the game's opening, and [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wZIYt586mds "The American Dream"]], which is heard during replays.
* Although Mitsuyoshi's vocals are absent in this game, the Japanese version changes this by featuring [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RXE7jzfgqrs a medley of the three main course themes]] as an extra song. It's every bit as heavenly as it sounds.
* Richard Jacques remixes [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2STxX_jqyA4 "The King of Speed"]], which sounds very similar to his work on the Saturn version of ''VideoGame/Sonic3DFlickiesIsland''.
* "Let's Go Away" gets [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8z7E86q_-MY a rocktastic instrumental version]] from ''CCE'' courtesy of one Jun Senoue.
* The new songs for the new courses: "[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9tEyFSxqj_g Funk Fair]]", composed by Richard Jaqcues, and "[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BE8klk2JsI4 The Noisy Roars of Wilderness]]" by Kenichi Tokoi. Strangely, which course they're heard in differs by region.
* Richard Jacques provides some beats with [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JeCWA2QYPxs "Race to the Bass"]].
* Jun Senoue brings us an awesome rock version of [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SsZr-RYXMUk "Pounding Pavement"]], which he intended to be the BGM for the Desert City course. It shows.
