    Manic Street Preachers - You Stole the Sun from My Heart

    On the wikipedia page for this song it says that the drum loop in the intro was sampled from a pinball machine, and there's this bit from an interview:

    "It's one of the most simple tracks - a kind of hybrid Nirvana and New Order - about when your soul gets ripped up but you just get past caring. Sean sampled the studio pinball machine."

    The song was recorded in 1998. I'm assuming the sample is from a prelaunch music. Can anyone identify which game it was?

    I could not identify it.
    I tried but the closest I got was this one stuck in my head. Not correct probably.

    I actually think it might be Shaq Attack, sped up a bit. I’m having a hard time finding an isolated track, but the prelaunch tune can be heard briefly in the beginning here

    Compare and let me know what you think:

    That might actually be a pretty good match sped up, have to inspect!

    Sounds similar to the drum tracks of a few Gottlieb street level games, namely Silver Slugger, Vegas and Hoops.
