You're 9 years old. It's 6am. You wake up before your parents and sneak downstairs. You turn on the TV, blow into the blue Tony Hawk's Pro Skater cartridge, and turn on the N64. You drop into The Mall. Superman by Goldfinger starts playing. Life is good. https://t.co/siIgmzKohs

It's nice when something trends for a good reason!

Oh no, why is "Superman" trending? Y'all cancelling him again because he's a God-like alien!?!?

*The song "Superman" is confirmed to be a part of the Tony Hawk Remasters*

That definitely seems to be the consensus.

Everyone that grew up with the original N64 tony hawk pro skater can agree that Goldfinger’s Superman is the best song off that game. It’s actually kind of funny how we all recognize that.

Fans want to see the game on Nintendo Switch, too!

Happy Birthday, @TonyHawk! I’ll be getting @TonyHawkTheGame day one. 😁 @GoldfingerMusic’s #Superman is still one of my favorite songs of all time. @NintendoAmerica, hopefully this also comes to #NintendoSwitch! It would be great to play THPS on the go.
