10 Songs That Share Their Names with Robot Masters
Last year, we told you about an article by Philip Reed which gave a tongue-in-cheek look at “10 Life Lessons Learned from Mega Man. A year later, and he’s back with a new piece which introduces an idea we haven’t seen before: “10 Songs That Share Their Names With Robot Masters” (warning: some offensive language within).
Now, some of these are to be expected. Terms such as “Fire Man” and “ice Man” have existed far longer than the Mega Man series, after all. But as you progress down the list, you see more and more candidates that you might not have known about (well, unless you’re an avid music lover, maybe), including “Top Man,” “Needle Man,” and others.
In addition to simply posting videos of the music, Reed also looks at how well the song applies to the Robot Master whose name it shares, whether it would make fitting music for their stage, and even if it’s just better than that same stage’s music. So give it a look, and see what you think.

Although the red blade-wielder is not much of a paranoid android I think.
Now if there was only a Robot Master named Triangle Man…
Fireman Theme’s Remix(Fireman Stage) from Network Transmission is my favorite
If you’d like to hear what the bonus track “Sword Man” sounds like, lol

“Look for ya sword man!”
As far as whether or not each song is better than the current theme music, I’d say I feel completely opposite. Especially Tornado Man; I really find that song terribly annoying.
However, Starman is a better song. I’ll give him that.
Oh so many differing opinions than mine.
Fire Man’s theme is my favorite from the first game, come on! D: Though I agree about how much these fit I suppose.
Now we must wait for Rocket Man…
@Phaelin
Hey, we have a Rocket Man: Dangan Man. He looks like a rocket, he flies around like a rocket and he explodes like a rocket.
Ah, good point!
Well then, I guess Piano Man would be next in line.
The Killers came out with a song named “Neon Tiger” on their 2006 LP.
Today Robot Masters, tomorrow people name songs after Mavericks! Coldplay please make a “Tornado Tonion” song.
