No Regrets

No Regrets is the opening theme from the Sega CD release of BowieQuest, composed by Spencer Nilsen and David Young and performed by an unnamed masculine vocalist. It was used to promote BowieQuest: Special Edition on television and was used in the game as its main theme. A remixed, less upbeat but congratulatory instrumental of the song would be used as the game's good ending theme.
"No Regrets" is an upbeat rap rock song demonstrating Bowie the Teddy Bear's buoyant yet resilient nature, and serves as a vocal metaphor for how Bowie always lives in the present, never giving in no matter the circumstance. The song was hastily recorded in one take.
== Lyrics ==
I've got no sweat, I've got no regrets
Nothin's impossible, won't call off bets
Better off optimistic, not pessimistic
I'm not egotistic just being realistic
Why mourn on the past you can't get back
Just live the present and stay on track
Stick together with the people you know
Hold on tight and then go with the flow
Maybe I can't scream behind these seams
But whatever man I've got high self-esteem
The fiends that teased me all these years?
Made some strides and drove them to tears
I can't stay around, I can't play all day
That rotten monkey boy's still gotta pay
But go step outside, don't hide your pride
Release the pride, show what's inside
Of you!
No regrets, no regrets
Can't feel regrets for the things I let go
No regrets, no regrets
Only my pride's allowed to steal the show
No regrets, no regrets
Always feel pain but always feel gain
No regrets, no regrets
That pain's worth it for the [omitted]
No no, no no, no no no
