Psycho Soldier (song)

Psycho Soldier is a 1986 image song for the game of the same name and is the first vocalized song in video game history. The song is also one of the main character themes for Athena Asamiya and continues to follow her in the King of Fighters series. Newer compositions of the song keep the basic melody intact but expand the lyrics to better fit necessities within the arrangement. When the game, Psycho Soldier, was released internationally, a different set of lyrics was composed to localize the title.

The band, From the Ashes, rearranged the English version and posted it online.

The Japanese version is sung by Kaori Shimizu and the original lyrics were composed by Eikichi Kawasaki.
