Martial Beat 2 Song Lyrics Version 1.0 FINAL Last Updated: November 28, 2003 by ShdwRlm3 (shdwrlm3 (at) wariocompany (dot) com) Table of Contents I. Intro II. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) III. Lyrics/Song Info IV. Credits V. Version History/Copyright Info ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ I. Intro __________ The original Martial Beat was an explosive hit in arcades and on the Playstation (*laughs*), so Konami commissioned a sequel to the music fitness game. With new licensed tracks and exclusive Konami Originals, Martial Beat 2 is the best game in series. Continuing my recent bout of FAQ laziness, I once again decided to transcribe the lyrics of the songs in the latest in Konami's little-known series. Once again, lyrics were sort of included in the official OST booklet, but butchered doesn't even begin to describe how incorrect some of them were. These are the lyrics to the full-length versions of the songs included on the OST, but the game actually features short, DDR-style edits. Enjoy the lyrics, and feel free to e-mail me with any corrections. Also, check out my original Martial Beat lyrics guide. ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ II. Frequently Asked Questions ________________________________ Q. What is Martial Beat 2? A. The sequel to Konami's (specifically, Konami Sports Life's) martial action music fitness game. Read my original Martial Beat lyrics guide for more info. Martial Beat 2 actually features 2 discs because of the full-motion video used. Q. Is Martial Beat 2 available for a home system? A. Yes, in fact, Martial Beat 2 is ONLY available for the Playstation. Apparently the original Martial Beat didn't do so hot in Arcades, so an Arcade version of the sequel was never released. Q. You can't have a good music game without good songs, so what songs are included? A. Strangely enough, Konami did a LOT more work choosing the music for MB2. While the original only featured songs from Dancemania (not to mention all of the songs in the original had appeared in DDR), the sequel features songs from Dancemania (including a few songs that have appeared in the DDR MAX series as well as licensed songs that have never appeared in DDR) as well as Konami Originals, including some exclusive new songs. MB2 is mysteriously devoid of any trance, opting instead for more of a Eurodance sound. Q. Have you even played Martial Beat 2? A. Once again, no. While Martial Beat 2 is available for about 50 bucks without the controller or 100+ with, I don't quite have the money to pick it up quite yet. Anywho, playing the game obviously isn't too necessary for a lyrics FAQ. Q. Your lyrics seem (way) off. A. Most of these were done by ear, so there may be some mistakes. If you know for sure that a lyric is off, just send an e-mail and I'll check it. Q. Should I pick up the OST? A. Hmm... good question. The MB2 OST DOES feature a few full-length versions of songs that you probably won't find anywhere else. Kiss Kiss Kiss, for example, is 4:19 long. Also, the Yozora no Muko full version has an incredibly intriguing beginning and end. The new exclusive Konami Originals are also interesting, but may not be enough to warrant a purchase. After the disaster that was the Martial Beat Nonstop Megamix, Toshiba-EMI opted for a one disc soundtrack this time around. However, since there are only 12 tracks in the game, there's STILL a "special" Nonstop Megamix, mixed by Fast Forward. It's less crappy than the original's but the transitions are still incredibly awful. Ah well, at least this time they didn't add the annoying sound effects. Q. Who actually asks these questions? A. The voices in my head always ask a lot of questions... ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ III. Lyrics / Song Info _________________________ Here they are, completely unofficial lyrics for (most) of the Martial Beat tunes for your enjoyment. Also included are some notes on the song. In the Album fields are the albums that the songs came from as well as catalog numbers so you can find them easily on import CD stores such as cdjapan.co.jp (though quite a few of them are already out of print). _______________________________ ______________________/Maximum Overdrive (KC Club Mix)\_____________________ ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ Song Title: Maximum Overdrive (KC Club Mix) Artist : 2 Unlimited Dancemania: Dancemania 21 Album : Greatest Hits Remixes (TOCP-64095) Maximum overdrive...
