Hmmm, could this be a recurring theme after Hawaiian Roller Coaster ride? Trying to get kids interested in Super Eurobeat as a series seems a bit of a pointless exercise since there would be a very small proportion of the tracks (to my ears) that would hook them in (can't really see a pre-teen dancing and singing along to "Red Light & Sex"... :???: :P )

You appear to be either over or underestimating Japan. :P

Clearly you haven't heard the controversy surrounding "If U Seek Amy" by Britney Spears then. Kids will dance and sing along to any song that sounds catchy even if they don't know what it means. Even when I was 7 or 8, I was listening to songs like Marcy Playground's "Sex and Candy" and my parents didn't care. It's not as bad as you're making it out to be.

I'd personally be incredibly insulted if eurobeat were to ultimately be considered "kid's music". Even cheesier, go-luck songs like Kiss My Boo Boo and Easy Come & Easy Go, from my perspective, are a lot better treated as "fun + happy", NOT "childish". Certainly no eurobeat songs fit into the same calibur as those that you could hear on Barney & Friends or the like. A lot of the cheesier songs still have a lot of suggestive metaphors in their lyrics. The self-explanatory Lollipop Banana is one major example.

I'm more interested in the controversy surrounding If You Seek Amy, than any of this Disney bull. If Eurobeat would be diminished to souding like kids music, than life would suck as we know it. :-x

Shit! I'd rather be rick rolled :P

Naminamina (EUROBEAT Remix) / Academy★Kids feat. Miwako with Miyu, Haruka, Hina

It's the other "new" Eurobeat remix track from Dance Kids Disney (the other Hawaiian Roller Coaster Ride).

Also the J-Euro remix is a new remix of EZ DO DANCE by TRF.

Besides, from my experience, EVERYONE in Japan loves Disney

Well, an Australian mother was shocked and appalled after having heard her daughters singing "all of the boys and all of the girls are begging to 'If You Seek Amy'" around the home. Of course, the little girls didn't know that the title of the song was a single entendre for 'F-U-C-K me.' The mother promptly complained to the media, as you would, and it generated a massive kerfuffle here, which is partly the reason why Australian radio stations now omit the 'K' whenever they play this song during peak hour.

I just don't think children really care when a song about sex pops up on the radio, mostly because it's treated as a taboo subject and they receive so little information from their parents about what it involves. This goes back to the point I made in my last post about "Red Light & Sex" - children will like or dislike that song based on its level of catchiness, not the meanings it carries. That's how I treated those kinds of songs when I was growing up, anyway.

Problem with the kid market orientation is the apparent dumbing down
of the otherwise normal songs and mixing 'em up with unnecessary
looniness. Avex has done that enough with many a SEB tunes, as
even the last offerings well testify.

Lyrical content can simply get parental advisory lyrics sign, and that can indicate to tv or radio stations how it should be handled..

Idon't know about that chorus, but that riff is oozing some serious Italo power. :!: I wonder what the rest of the song would sound like in English. The original version isn't too bad cuz it sounds like 80s.

track number one is very good. sounds like mellow AOR .
