Is this album speedy? About as much as 191 was drive-defining and 192 was party-defining.
Yeah, it's pretty speedy. You need to remember that 2Fast and Baby Gold boosted SEB182's mean BPM considerably (both were above 165 BPM). Had they been brought down to a slightly less, but still considerably speedy 160 BPM, it would bring SEB182 in line with SEB195.

I just bought the Project 2 track from Music Ocean, and holy crap, the song is amazing in all it's glory. Both Leo and Mari's vocals are so strong and they complement eachother so well. It's an amazing track *_*

Paraboy was also 162 BPM. You have to wonder why Dave and Domino didn't pump out faster stuff for this album, since there are several A Beat-C tracks at 160 BPM. The Saifam track they chose is also confusing, since most are faster than that. Considering how well avex picked songs for 194, it's kind of confusing why every song wasn't above at least 155 BPM.

Wasn't the Eurobeat Masters mix of Burning Up The Night somewhat slower?

Nope. Both SEB 182 and the coughshittycough Extended Remix on Eurobeat Masters are the same speed : 170BPM.

I REALLY like Hurricane Man and Don't Belong ! I think the songs are all great.

But im just a bit disappointed in Don't Belong that i was expecting that Hyper-Techno side ... But now it's pretty much Eurobeat. But it's still a great song!

From what I picked up, Kooky Spooky wins for me. King of the World is really well done, too. Pleasantly surprised by Save Another Day For Me. Monsters Ready kinda reminded me of ABBA's Does Your Mother Know, in the verse and bridge, at least. Most everything else was alright, too.

GAWD.

Tokyo is around 10500km from Montreal and Montreal is 600km from my home... With Express Mail, I get it in 5 days (Ships on a Tuesday, receive it on the next Monday). With Air Mail, I receive it about 7 days after shipping.

Express is not worth the extra 15$.

I was seriously considering buying a Japanese iTunes card, but I suddenly had a thought...

I take it the new Super Eurobeat albums on the iTunes store are the old-style 128kbps DRM files? If so, I don't think I'll bother.
