All Hail Shadow (Crush 40)

"All Hail Shadow" Shadow's Theme in Sonic The Hedgehog
Album: Sonic the Hedgehog Original Soundtrack
Arrangement by: Crush 40
Vocals: Johnny Gioeli

All Hail Shadow serves as Shadow's main theme in Sonic The Hedgehog. The version used is sung by Crush 40 instead of the original's performers, Magna-Fi. In it, there's a leit motif in a small guitar sample through out the piece that is the same notes from a guitar sample in I Am... All of Me. The song plays in the credits after defeating Mephiles.

It also appears as a bonus song in Sonic and the Black Knight after collecting an item from Sir Lancelot.

Lyrics

All hail Shadow
Heroes, rise again
Obliterating everything
That's not your friend

Nothing can stop you now
No ghost to
Bring you down
When there's nothing
Left to lose
You win

Bow your heads low
All hail Shadow

Bow your heads low
All hail Shadow

Suffer long
And it will set you free
Only through trial do we
Find the strength we need

It's never over
Just another day
Of hope and tragedies
And everything
That comes our way

Determination
Of the strong
Found the meaning that
You searched for
So long

All hail Shadow
Heroes, rise again
Obliterating everything
That's not your friend

Nothing can stop you now
No ghost to
Bring you down
When there's nothing
Left to lose
You win

Bow your heads low
All hail Shadow

Somewhere in chaos
We'll all find ourselves
This destruction is
The only tale we'll tell

White is black
Black is white
Right is wrong
Wrong is right
Nothing ever fills this hole inside your heart

Determination
Of the strong
Found the meaning that
You searched for
So long

All hail Shadow
Heroes, rise again
Obliterating everything
That's not your friend

Nothing can stop you now
No ghost to
Bring you down
When there's nothing
Left to lose
You win

(Instrumental)

(Repeat)

Bow your heads low
All hail Shadow
Bow your heads low
All hail Shadow!
