Wierd Song Names.... Like Absolute

Tsuka18 · Trick Member Joined: 15 Apr 2003 Location: Houston, Texas

Hmm, what do these odd song names mean? Such as Absolute... thats a sort of wierd name-- Kind of like the liquor drink of the same name..

And then they add (Cuff-n-stuff it mix) to the remix in Ultramix?? And what about Afronova?? Where do they come up with these names and how? Havent you ever wondered?

(what does cuff-n-stuff it mean anyways? some kind of police term?)

Yeah, there are some pretty wierd names for DDR songs. Like 321 Stars, Leading Cyber, and Be Lovin' to name just a few. It makes you wonder if the names were messed up somewhere because of translation. By the way, the liquor is Absolut.

well be lovin' they is actually a lyric in the song. 321 Stars has 321 combo at the end and its a video game oriented song.

What about vanity angel? cool name, cool song, but where the F* do you get that title from?

Um, yeah, there was just a thread about this. I guess it was bumped off.
Boom Boom Dollar, I've heard, is about a gigolo. See? "Boom-Boom" then "Dollar". The Least 100 Seconds is 100 seconds long, I think, and maybe they're being modest about such a good song. "The Least." Ja, j00're right about Xenon being an element, but what has it to do with the song? What is Daikenkai exactly?

You guys are going to have to understand. In relativity all song names are "wierd", it just depends on your opinion really.

Other than the ones mentioned previously...

DXY!
DROP OUT (was it about a drop out student?

)
era
Dead End

B4U and B4U Glorious Style
Firefly
Break Down!
DIVE
Graduation -- I always wonder if this song is supposedly the "goodbye" song of the franchise ?
End of the Century -- I even heard things like "It's a reference to the apocalypse

Wild Rush (like, everytime I hear the song, is it just me, or the vocalist is taking either Mary Jane or Cheech and Chong edition?)

Probably a 1978 Japanese enka, but seriously, I'm not sure.

Dynamite Rave

Sakura is an old japanese folk song, by the same name. Although many people claim it a remix of MAxx, I highly doubt MaxX was around before Sakura.

Kakumei=Revolution=Revolutionay Etude= The Music. Any questions?

Yeah the reason why this happens is because Japanese people are giving English names to their songs.
