Yep, it's yet another WMMT MM but wait...There's singing!!! Really!!

Or choruses or harmonic yelling but pretty much some kind of speech intonated with melody.

Singing in WMMT is a rare treat.  Up to now there's been 6 WMMT mixes and you can probably count on one hand how many vocal songs are featured in them all.    This is a modest attempt to sling together these rarities, hopefully for your listening pleasure.  The vocal tracks go as such:

*Fallen Angel (Maxi5)
Cause You're Different (Maxi3)
Feel a Thrill (Maxi4)
This is My Destiny (Maxi2)
Glory Days (Maxi4)
Nothing Can Live Forever (Maxi2)
Taillight (Maxi4)
Select Maxi3 (Maxi3)
*Enjoy The Process (Maxi3DX)
Feel The Moment (Maxi3)
*Tonight (Maxi5)
*Entry Maxi3DX+ (Maxi3DX+)
Re-Birth (Maxi4)

*No album version

As always, props to the maestro behind the sound - Yuzo Koshiro!

Lyrics:
After we’re gone 
Who will breathe the earth we lost 
We leave nothing but our thoughts 
And memories beneath the dust 
So when this body fails to mend 
And all my demons they come crashing in 
Will i start to begin 
Or will i fade away with them

And in the afterlife, tell me we’ll be fine 
In the afterlife, tell me we’ll be fine 
And in the afterlife, tell me we’ll be fine 
In the afterlife

And in the afterlife, tell me we’ll be fine 
In the afterlife, tell me we’ll be fine 
And in the afterlife, tell me we’ll be fine 
In the afterlife

So when this body fails to mend 
And all the demons they come crashing in 
Will we start to begin 
Or will we fade away with them

And in the afterlife, tell me we’ll be fine 
In the afterlife, tell me we’ll be fine 
And in the afterlife, tell me we’ll be fine 
In the afterlife﻿

Lyrics:
no light in the distance
we were shadows holding on (holding on)
all the things i resisted
now far from gone (far from gone)
armor on
you use your heart as a fortress
ticking bombs
all the weapons are useless
so can you just let down your guard
before everything is marred
armor on
you use your heart as a fortress

how’d you get so far away from me
how’d you get so far away from me
la da la la da da
how’d you get so far
la da la la da da
how’d you get so far away
how’d ya get so far away
you use your heart as a fortress
you use your heart as a fortress
you use your heart as a fortress

la da la la da da
how’d you get so far
la da la la da da
how’d you get so far
armor on
you use your heart as a fortress
ticking bombs
all the weapons are useless

all the weapons are useless
you use your heart as a fortress
so can you just let down your guard
before everything is marred
armor on
you use your heart as a fortress
la da la la da da
you use your heart as a fortress
la da la la da da
you use your heart as a fortress

Lyrics:
at first i didn’t think i was cut enough to bleed
then i saw my secrets getting swallowed by the sea
through a telescope
i saw a diamond glow
how you brought me home
i guess i’ll never know

with god as my witness
never had it so good
jumping into love
fire sets to dry wood
started off as noth’n
now it’s gold
and it’s all on u

i get my kicks from you
i get my kicks from you

can’t see, dark road, driving up the hills
looking at the girl, hand barely on the wheel
got no where to go
we can take it slow
how you brought me home
i guess i’ll never know

i get my kicks from you
i get my kicks from you

with god as my witness
never had it so good
jumping into love
fire sets to dry wood
started off as noth’n
now it’s gold
and it’s all on u

and it’s all on u
and it’s all on u
and it’s all on u

kicks from you
i get my kicks from you

Lyrics:
sleepwalker, where do you go
in the night
i find you in my dreams
i find you in my dreams
sleepwalker, visions always
just repeat
you’re always in my dreams
you’re always in my dreams

did you come to make it right
did you come to say goodbye
did you come to make it right
did you come to say goodbye
did you come to say goodbye
did you come to say goodbye
sleepwalker, sleepwalker
where did you go

now i’m sleepwalkin again
now i’m sleepwalkin again
now i’m sleepwalkin again
now i’m sleepwalkin again
sleepwalker, sleepwalker
sleepwalker, sleepwalker

sleepwalker, sleepwalker
sleepwalker, sleepwalker
now i’m sleepwalkin again
now i’m sleepwalkin again
sleepwalker, sleepwalker
sleepwalker
where did you go

now i’m sleepwalkin again
now i’m sleepwalkin again
now i’m sleepwalkin again
now i’m sleepwalkin again
sleepwalker, sleepwalker
sleepwalker, sleepwalker

Lyrics:
when you’re screaming out
but you can’t make a sound
you know
it’s only a dream
when you’re back hits the ground
and things turn around
you know
it was only a dream
cuz nothing is as bad as you think
even when you’re pulling at the seams
when the lights go out you still got me
ohh uhh ohh uhh ohh ohh
detours lead to barricades
and home is far, you’re friends are fake
i’ll be there to clear the way
ohh uhh ohh uhh ohh ohh
and you
you know my love can hold you down
you know my love can hold you down
and you
you know my love can hold you down
you know my love can hold you down

when the roof caves in
and you just can’t win
you know
it’ll only get better, only get better
when you fall too far
can’t go back to the start
you know
it’ll only get better, only get better
nothing is as bad as you think
even when you’re pulling at the seams
when the lights go out you still got me
ohh uhh ohh uhh ohh ohh
detours lead to barricades
and home is far, you’re friends are fake
i’ll be there to clear the way
ohh uhh ohh uhh ohh ohh
and you
you know my love can hold you down
you know my love can hold you down
and you
you know my love can hold you down
you know my love can hold you down

Maximum Tune OST - Stream Of Tears Remix

***With the release of Sears Portrait concluding the WMMT Megamix Project, the following is a quick commentary on each mix that comprised the compilation:

Sophomore efforts can be real sticklers.  Never quite expected the plethora of technical pitfalls that plagued this one's development - it had the most takes of all four.  It still takes much to resist the urge to Ridley Scott it for that fleeting satisfaction.  Just as aggravating as that baby dinosaur!***
__________________________________________________________________________

The second helping of awesome tunes from the peerless Yuzo Koshiro.  All taken from the Wangan Midnight Maximum Tune albums.  Strung together as a DJ set.  The tracklist in order of appearance:

Speed Fanatic (Maxi2)
Pleasures of Speed (Maxi4)
Supreme Folly (Maxi3)
Overdrive Neurotransmitters (Maxi2)
Just Flat Out (Maxi3)
Decoration for the Dement (Maxi2)
Madly Driving (Maxi4)
*Loop of Fortune (Maxi3)
Result [Maxi1 Version] (Maxi2)

Wangan Midnight Maximum Tune MegaMix Again

***With the release of Sears Portrait concluding the WMMT Megamix Project, the following is a quick commentary on each mix that comprised the compilation:

Lucas Says aka Special Edition is the first WMMT MegaMix having undergone puberty!  The original structure is intact for the most part.  It just doesn't sound anymore like some clueless bugger who wanted to play DJ for 36 minutes.  No longer having to hide behind the "Demo" apron,  it's clearly what Lucas Says.  And Lucas is NEVER wrong!***
__________________________________________________________________________

Final cut of the reworked first MegaMix featuring tracks from the Yuzo Koshiro-composed Wangan Midnight Maximum Tune albums.   Hopefully the changes in this release will make it sound more like a special edition of  the first MegaMix.  Tracks appear as a DJ set in the listed order:

Maximum Acceleration (Maxi2)
**Dark Side Style (Maxi4)
Adrenaline Blowouts The Fear (Maxi2)
Feel a Thrill (Maxi4)

It's been a blast sharing these mixing adventures with the Soundcloud community over the past three years.  Despite having satisfied that mixing itch since then, I realize that any WMMT fans coming across this page in the future will not get to test drive the full project as before.  Going forward, you will be able to do so at the provided link.  Please do share it with your fellow WMMT fanatics.  I hope it will stay up in perpetuity because this project was an amazing experience.  Koshiro-san rocks!  Thanks again and best wishes to you all!
