Ha Ha! This topic is no longer about Tokyo Drift, but about Go2.LOL!

I just wanted to contribute

So true... Let's get back on topic then!

Looking at the new titles, I'm guessing that Avex might have commissioned A-Beat C and SCP to do covers of classic rock songs. That would explain so many new tracks appearing suddenly. Come to think of it:

- Kickstart My Heart = Mötley Crüe,
- Highway Star = Deep Purple,
- Burn = Deep Purple,
- Ain't Talkin' Bout Love = Van Halen,
- Give Me All Your Love = Whitesnake,
- Home Sweet Home = Mötley Crüe.

I'm not sure about Please Don't Leave Me, but Smoke On The Water and Enter Sandman, which we already know, are also covers. If this turns out to be true, I am DEFINITELY ordering the CD!

EDIT: This IS true!

Please Don't Leave Me is a John Sykes cover - and WHAT a cover! Same with Home Sweet Home, totally unexpected!!!

If you want to draw parallels between eurobeat song titles and rock/pop song titles, we could be here a long time.

Who gives a damn, they are BADASSSSSS!

The Guitar work is amazing!

All of the Pop/Rock songs are HOOTTT! (The Snake, Go2 (especially), Powerful T, Ace Warrior, 8-Ball (whoever they are))

This isn't just a strickly eurobeat CD people. This is a cover album as well.

I know, I know... But I was right, wasn't I?

Anyway, these songs are beyond awesome! I instatnly bought all the new tracks from mu-mo. I always wondered how Go2 would sound in some classic rock repertoire... Please Don't Leave Me particularly impressed me. If Ennio and Christian ever recorded a rock album together, they would do really well! Besides, Deep Purple and Whitesnake are among my favorite non-Eurobeat bands...

Now no one deny that they are playing Rock! All these vocalists must be having the time of their life with these tracks. I hope there will be more

Got a couple of them, yeah, pure rock, but I kinda like it. It does sound like they had fun with this, a chance to do something with it.

Wish they'd done some rock versions of The Snake songs, though. I've always felt they'd sound better with more rock-based drumming, and less synths.

What an awful rock style songs! I am really dissapointed. If they sick and wants to sing/make rock songs, do it under different names and on different cds. Don't kill eurobeat.
For me it is only trash.

But this IS a different cd, it seems. Call me crazy, but I don't see "Super Eurobeat Presents" on the cover. With this type of argument, we shouldn't be having half the singers on SEB that we do have. And it's rather petty to say that they should only make one type of music, and that's it.

Too much rock, because IT IS rock.

No, I was also misled because the D1 Grand Prix series is usually associated with eurobeat songs anyway...

The D1 Grand Prix series used to have eurobeat, cyber trance, dance pop and occasionally some hyper techno too. ;X It was called Gazen ParaPara!! back then, tho. ;X
