Confirmed tracks I guess since they were in Final Stage.

DANCING ON THE STREET / DAVID DIMA
MAGIC SUNDAY / DAVE RODGERS FEAT. FUTURA
THE JUNGLE IS ON FIRE / J.STARK
1 FIRE / DAVE RODGERS
CRAZY LITTLE LOVE / NUAGE
WILD BOY BAD LOVE / JOE BANANA
ADRENALINE / ACE

So that's 7/15 tracks, that's 8 songs left to fill out the first CD.

We can expect tracks that were only released on mixed on Fifth Stage releases and tracks like "The Top" that was used in the anime (5th Stage) but not on the CDs. I don't expect Igoda tracks to show up however. Why would they? It's not Eurobeat...

I don't expect the Igoda tracks to show up either, that's why I left it out of the list.

If we're including songs left out as extended form that were actually in the anime that would be THE TOP, FACE THE RACE, RAIN and WAIT FOR YOU. Which would still leave 4 songs.

WILD BOY BAD LOVE / JOE BANANA

that's a pretty old one. Seems "Born To Be Wild In My Car" would have been a better choice.

It's still not as old as Funky Town / P. Stone or Tokyo Girls and Guys / Beat Man, both of which were over a decade old when they appeared on Initial D (they were first released on ParaPara Cool, Vol. 4 in 2007 but were made in 2001). Then again, you gotta remember there that Avex only permitted Hi-NRG Attack to release their independent collections in Japan two years ago, so these tracks are basically brand new to eurobeat's target audience. Wild Boy Bad Love's been out for five years, and even then, it's far from the best modern HRG track Initial D could've used.

Once you realize that it is a paralist who choreographed routines to those songs and is playing a role in the song selection, it all makes sense.

I love how The Jungle Is On Fire and Adrenaline are on both discs. The former in particular is a great song, but twice on the same compilation? I assume disc 2 is just a "best of" bonus CD and they wanted to cover the entire run of Initial D, but this makes it feel like something that should've been released separately.
