"Sonic Boom" is the main theme song for the US version of Sonic the Hedgehog CD. There are two versions of the song: an upbeat, fast version that plays during the intro, and a slower version that plays at the ending. The lyrics were similar in the two versions, but had different instrumentation. The lyrics for the ending theme were found in the back of the game manual. It is also one of the music tracks that can be heard in the Green Hill Zone stage in Super Smash Bros. Brawl. Crush 40 has also composed a remix of this song.

"Sonic Boom" was composed by Spencer Nilsen and performed by Pastiche (Sandy Cressman, Jenny Meltzer, and Becky West).

Lyrics

Intro

If you're strong
You can fly
You can reach the other side
Of the rainbow
It's all right
Take a chance
Cause there is no circumstance
That you can't handle
When you use your mind
Sonic Boom, Sonic Boom, Sonic Boom (Trouble keeps you running faster)
Sonic Boom, Sonic Boom, Sonic Boom (Save the planet from disaster)
Through the dark
To the light
It's a supersonic flight
Gotta keep it goin'
Sonic Boom, Sonic Boom, Sonic Boom (Trouble keeps you running faster)
Sonic Boom, Sonic Boom, Sonic Boom (Save the planet from disaster)
Sonic Boom, Sonic Boom, Sonic Boom (Spinning through a world in motion)
Sonic Boom, Sonic Boom, Sonic Boom

(Repeat 1 time)

Ending

If you're strong,
you can fly
You can reach the other side
Of the rainbow
It's all right, take a chance
Cause there is no circumstance
That you can't handle
When you use your mind
Mr. Bad's
Got it good
But this ain't his neighborhood
He's taking over, no, no
Time is now
He can't hide
Find the power deep inside
And make it happen
Sonic Boom, Sonic Boom (Trouble keeps you running faster)
Sonic Boom, Sonic Boom (Save the planet from disaster)
Sonic Boom, Sonic Boom (Spinning through a world in motion)
Sonic Boom, Sonic Boom (Take it all the way!)
Make your move
Break it out
That's what life is all about
It's your adventure
Through the dark
To the light
It's a supersonic flight
Got to keep it goin'
Sonic Boom, Sonic Boom (Trouble keeps you running faster)
Sonic Boom, Sonic Boom (Save the planet from disaster)
Sonic Boom, Sonic Boom (Spinning through a world in motion)
Sonic Boom, Sonic Boom (Take it all the way!)
Sonic Boom, Sonic Boom
(repeat 1 time)

You can reach the other side
Of the rainbow
It's all right
Take a chance
Cause there is no circumstance
That you can't handle
When you use your mind
Sonic Boom, Sonic Boom, Sonic Boom (Trouble keeps you running faster)
Sonic Boom, Sonic Boom, Sonic Boom (Save the planet from disaster)
Sonic Boom, Sonic Boom, Sonic Boom (Spinning through a world in motion)
Sonic Boom, Sonic Boom, Sonic Boom, whoa
Time is now
He can't hide
Find the power deep inside
And make it happen
Make it happen
Sonic Boom, Sonic Boom, Sonic Boom (Trouble keeps you running faster)
Sonic Boom, Sonic Boom, Sonic Boom (Save the planet from disaster)
Sonic Boom, Sonic Boom, Sonic Boom (Spinning through a world in motion)
Sonic Boom, Sonic Boom, Sonic Boom Whoa
