Any backstory to the songs?

i.e. I heard from somebody who plays DDR telling me that Healing Vision ~Angelic Mix~ is about a guy on the brink of death, but is revived at the end of the song (the two beep-beeps you step at the very end). And Afronova is supposed to be something about a new Africa? AND, how they botched the name so it's supposed to be called Afronovus? I'd like some story to what's going on in the song (I've had my share of sex-themed ones thanks...there's a big thread for that, so no need to bring those up), or things about how the some came to be.

Try looking for sites about the songs. I know www.extrastage.com has some stuff on there about songs, and where they come from and etc.

I've always thought the backstory of DDR was the evil arrow kingdom trying to invade the unvisible heavens above and you're the last defenses

Actually, DDR is a training machine for our new missle defense system. Each arrow represents a missle heading towards the united states and using the ddr pad to target and intercept the incoming missles.

well someone posted about "rythm and polices" origin so i don't no if that counts

any way i no that "speed over beethoven" is based on "FIR ELESE" by beethoven

i heard that maxX was about a guy in Japan who played so long he maxed out his credit card and lost his home

It's kinda obvious to the guys here that play Konami games other than stuff chucked out by their BEMANI division, but the KCET in Paranoia KCET ~ Clean Mix ~ stands for Konami Computer Entertainment Tokyo. These are the guys responsible for Contra, Gradius, and their sequels.

Twinbee on Standard mode has the Konami Code as the first steps (Minus B A and Start), and Twinbee is the name of one of Konami's Games.

Gradustic Cyber, leading Cyber, and Burning heat are all Gradius songs

And Of course, Crash is obviously reffering to the Crash of Mr Brian's career after singing that song.

(Kidding)

Little Bitch refers to the singer's relation to a Golddigging girlfriend (Girl who only wants money)

I remember that article because I read it on here! I was looking for articles on DDR then read that piece of junk and I kept rolling my eyes throughout reading it.
