Or, as it will for now on be known, "Sleet the Wolf Underground".
So yeah, I did watch Sonic Underground, only for Sleet of course, but the show itself did have a very good theme tune to it, with a bass part which sounded like Billy Sheehan was playing it. In this cover, that is slightly lost under the weight of the other instruments. The MIDI I used was just two piano tracks, so I transcribed it from these onto different instruments and the drum track I made myself. I didn't reference the drum track too much to the original and instead wrote it around the song itself, explaining the double-bass-drum parts near the end and how much more over the top they are.
To my ear, it has a kinda "Meat Loaf meets Judas Priest" feel to it, with the occasional thrash metal drum stuff. I quite like it actually.
If Wikipedia is anything to go by, it was originally composed by Robby London and Mike Piccirillo.

The fact that the song has lyrics and I knew them so well was what made arranging the song actually possible :P I have a feeling the middle piano-keyboard interchange (The "Lean what's right/leaders of the freedom fight" bit) didn't quite work out properly, but otherwise I'm very pleased with it :P
