2. Big Blue

Uhh holy shit, it almost feels illegal how good Big Blue is. Mute City is cute and fun but this shit is real. This is my favorite *track* in the series, and #1 is only #1 by virtue of other factors (though you'd be surprised how close Cheese Land got, really). This is the only track in the game besides Mount Wario that really feels like it fully justifies the 3-segments design and I wouldn't have it any other way; this is just such a wild ride from start to finish, an absolute roller coaster of a track. The best part is easily the water slide portion, again, of course, because the pickup in speed you get on an already fast track is just exhilirating, and every turn in that portion is *just* wide enough for you to make it by reaction alone. It's perfect. It's a perfect homage to the feeling of F-Zero in just about every way, from the visuals to the music to the way it feels to play it. Goddamn that arrangement of the Big Blue theme is so good. Pretty much an auto-pick when it comes up in online play, only the other tracks in the top 5 could possibly dissuade me. Completely mindblowing that they made this track.
