Circle of the Moon was one of the initial release games for Nintendo's new
Gameboy Advance, the fourth Gameboy system (Gameboy, Gameboy Pocket, Gameboy
Color) in the Nintendo line.  And now they're doing SP.  Blah.  Anyway, one
outstanding feature of all of the Castlevania games has been its music.  Even
if it is repeated songs from other games, there's that old saying...what is
it... "If it's not broke, don't fix it?"  Maybe it's just a southern saying =P.
Anyway.  The music has titles (SO unlike other music), and this is to help you,
for whatever reason, remember them.

This guide has a different format than my others, as it'd make no sense to
create a whole new section for each piece.

| 1.03: Dedication |

I'm going to dedicate this to Zoop Soul/NOVA.  Even though he and I have hardly
exchanged two words on AIM [I've added him to my closed list (though he doesn't
realize it)], he's still a cool guy, and this guide, as previously stated, is
dedicated to him.

Also Dave Barry, if you know who he is.  Funny guy who writes for the Miami
Herald, and has a few funny books, the best of which is "Dave Barry Hits Below
the Beltway."  I recommend it.

Version 0.9- I did the guide, and I am done (except for those inevitable
            correction (E-Mails).

Version 1.0- I have gone through, and replaced the "-" signs to divide the
            sections with "=".  I have also made the sections easier to
            distinguish between.

Version 2.0- Added the boss music; added the introduction theme

Version 3.0- Changed the Table of Contents a little, and formatted the guide
            more.  I also made some other minor changes.  I also added my AIM
            name.

Version FINAL- I just...uh...resubmitted it and changed some little things.

Version FINAL: I added some nice ASCII Art at the top

Version 4.0: Again, I just took this down from final.  Exchanged the email
            address with EZBoard.

Version 4.1: Reformatted the guide.

Version 4.2: Re-reformatted it.  Beat that :P.

Version 5.0: Added/corrected some songs, thanks to Dais.
