Critical Reception
In a review of Sonic and the Secret Rings, 1UP.com's Shane Bettenhausen bemoaned the music, citing the overuse of vocals and comparing it to "a local Winger cover band." IGN's Matt Casamassina criticized the "cheesy 80s guitar riffs and even cheesier pop vocals". However, GameSpot's Greg Mueller stated that "he tunes are so incredibly cheesy that they are funny, and they seem to be a perfect match for Sonic's early-'90s sense of style."

—Erma Bombeck (20th century)
“To the United States the Third World often takes the form of a black woman who has been made pregnant in a moment of passion and who shows up one day in the reception room on the forty-ninth floor threatening to make a scene. The lawyers pay the woman off; sometimes uniformed guards accompany her to the elevators.”
—Lewis H. Lapham (b. 1935)
