As far as I know (and I don't know that much), there is none without Speed Mods.

If it was in the arcade, no song exists.

A few have minor speed ups like that (Burning the Floor Momo Mix has a speed up to 444 BPM, but it's not shown on the BPM display)

Now, on some of the songs - the BPM display is purposely messed up and displays completely random numbers and tends to flash a song having a 550+ BPM. (Maxx Unlimited on the MAX2 machine does that. Dance Dance Revolution on Extreme does that. I think LOM does it too.)

The only place that she might see someone playing a song that fast would either be on a StepMania machine (which are really rare) or on the DDR Extreme Japanese home version. Which has a song entitled "MAX. (Period)" that speeds up to 600 BPM near the end.

Legend of maxx speeds up to 666 BPM (according to step chart)

I think its the part where you hit the freeze arrows, and then the song gets really slow.

But the BPM display doesn't mark the song as speeding up to 666 BPM. Plus it only does it during the freeze. Unless you're looking for it, you really won't notice it.

no no no, it speeds up right before freezes happen and there are no arrows during that part.

to 666 bpm, the number of the beast.

So techinally it doesnt even go 666 because theres no steps during that part. and MaxX only goes 320 and techinally thats faster than Max period because it has no 1/8th notes during the 600 part.

Let's not get into another heated debate about this.

Just remember: song speed is not analog to BPM.

Most of Konami's BPM numbers are inflated and dead wrong just to make something seem harder.
