Hi and Konnichi wa! Welcome to my FAQ for DDR Ultramix 3 for the X-BOX!
Unlike other FAQs I've done in the past for the DDR series, I'm unable to
get my hands on this game to play it properly, so I can't give a complete
FAQ/Walkthrough as I'm used to. However, the game deserves, at least,
something, so I'm giving everything I can get without dropping all the money
for a new X-BOX.
What you'll find in this guide:
- The song list
- Their statistics and difficulties
- Lyrics, where I can get them
- Where all the songs come from, their artists, etc.
- Basic info on Song Packs 13 and up
- Basic info on the game's other modes
- How to unlock the hidden songs
What you WON'T find in this guide:
- Play/Heavy notes
- Extended information on the game's other modes
- Information on Song Packs 1-12 (please refer to my UM1 and UM2 guides for
that information)
A: DDR Ultramix 3 is the third game in Konami of Hawaii's adaptation of the
DDR series for the X-BOX.
Q: How does one play Dance Dance Revolution games?
A: It's actually pretty simple. Your "controller" has four directions: left,
down, up, and right, which are shown at the top of your play screen. You
select a song. As the song plays, arrows will start scrolling up to your top
line. When an arrow scrolling up reaches the line of arrows at the top, you
must "step" on the direction matching that arrow's direction. If two arrows
come up at once, you must press both at once. If a green "freeze" arrow
appears, you must hold that step at the beginning until the freeze arrow ends.
Q: Can I rip my own songs to the X-BOX hard drive and play them?
A: Nope. Copyright issues, of course.
Q: How many songs in this mix?
A: 56 standard, plus 14 unlockable. Add an extra 72 if you plan to download
song packs.
Q: Is this game X-BOX LIVE capable?
A: Yes. By going online, you're able to play with other people on LIVE, as
well as download additional content for a small fee.
Q: Can I use Song Packs 1-12 in this game?
A: Yes. I'm not sure how the backwards compatibility goes with Song Packs in
this game, but I'm assuming so far that if you want to use SPs 1-6 on Ultramix
1, make sure you download through that game.
Q: Does this game support Song Packs 13 and up?
A: Yes, and only in this game. You cannot use those Song Packs in Ultramix 1
or 2.
Q: Is this just like any DDR in the arcades?
A: Not really. Konami of Hawaii is trying to distance themselves not only
from the arcade scene of DDR, but also the PlayStation console DDRs in
general. Not only is the game setup non-arcade (no stages, for example),
but there are actually very few songs in this mix that have been in other
DDRs.
Q: Why isn't (insert song here) in this mix or any others?
A: Usually, it's directly related to the fact that, despite Konami's usage
of these songs for DDR, the songs are still owned by the songs' artists.
This means that the contract the artists have with Konami only refers to the
games they specify, which is generally the arcade mix, and (most of the time)
the corresponding Japanese Playstation console port. Getting the songs over
here is a whole other story, and I feel that we're lucky to get the songs that
we do. Additionally, Konami of Hawaii is trying to distance themselves from
the PlayStation and arcade games, so we're receiving fewer "established"
DDR tunes.
Q: What does this mix have for special modes?
A: In addition to all the modes of the last game (including Training, Workout,
Edit, Battle, Challenge, Bomb, Attack, and Synch), there are also two new
modes of play: Quest and Freestyle, as well a Jukebox mode.
Q: Does this game seriously have Quad Mode?
A: Yeah. If you have four pads, a big enough TV so you can see it from all
four, and a whole lotta room, you too can play Quad Mode.
Q: Just who is NAOKI?
A: Naoki Maeda has been with Konami for many years. He is the leader of
Konami AM Internal Sound Team, who are in charge of coming up with songs for
each new DDR release. He's responsible for many songs throughout DDR-dom,
under lots of artist names. He also has the support of other artists and
vocalists, such as Paula Terry, Thomas Howard, and Aaron G. His artist names
include, but are not limited to: Omega (the symbol), 1479, 180, 190, 190',
200, 270, 290, 8 bit, B3-PROJECT, BIG-O, BLUE DESTROYERS, Crystal Aliens,
DANDY MINIERO, d-complex, DJ KAZU, DE-SIRE, DIVAS, DR. VIBE, FACTOR-X, FIXX,
KTz, Luv UNLIMITED, mitsu-O!, MR. DOG, MUSTACHE MEN, N&S, N.M.R, NAOKI, NAOKI
190, NAOKI underground, NM, NO.9, NW260, RE-VENGE, RevenG, Stone Bros.,
TailBros, THE FINAL BAND, THE SURRENDERS, UZI-LAY, Z, ZZ. Some of these are
not actually names for Naoki, but sometimes artists he's used for vocals in
the songs.
Q: What is beatmania?
A: Developed almost concurrently with DDR, BM is a series of games where you
use your fingers instead of your feet. You have a set of keys, like a piano,
and you have to tap those to create the music (each key tap adds music to the
playing score). Also, you have a turntable to "scratch", which also adds
sound. The original beatmania had 5 keys, beatmania IIDX has 7 keys (and is
the only one of the series still coming out with new mixes), and beatmania
III has 5 keys and a foot pedal.
Q: What are Guitar Freaks and drummania?
A: These ongoing series are favorites from BEMANI. Guitar Freaks uses a
guitar with three neck buttons and a "pick", which allows you to insert
music into the song. drummania is similar, using a drum set. A few mixes
into the series, BEMANI got the wise idea of combining the two series,
giving each mix the same list, and allowing the machines to link up.
Q: What is Dance ManiaX?
A: This is a short-lived series that was made to showcase more Dancemania
tunes, as well as a bunch of Konami Originals. It's played with light beams,
and blocking them in time with the music.
Q: What is Keyboardmania?
A: This is another short-lived series based around a keyboard. Much like
Konami's other games, you're required to play the keyboard (composed of two
octaves) to create the music as the game dictates to you.
Q: What is pop'n music?
A: This is a currently ongoing BEMANI series that is similar to beatmania,
only it just involves a bunch of colored buttons. It has a more cartoonish
look to it than other BEMANI series, and many of the songs are happy songs,
or songs from popular anime.
Q: What is "A Different Drum"?
A: Described as "the source for synthpop", this is a label group that
distributes the music of several different artists/groups to put them further
in the public light (similar to Toshiba-EMI's Dancemania series, actually).
You can check out their site at adifferentdrum.com for more info.
Q: Hey, did you know that (insert song here) was in (insert game here) first?
A: Well, please, if I've made mistakes, let me know. I pride myself on a
healthy knowledge of BEMANI, but no one's perfect. If something's wrong,
tell me.
Q: I think a genre you have listed is incorrect.
A: Tell me what you think it should be, but present a good case, because I've
asked a lot of people about this subject. However, if you're disputing a
genre that has a star (*) after it, then I won't bother, because those are
the official genres as Konami states.

Select Your Style
Single Mode: This is a 1-player or 2-player mode. Each player uses one
controller.
Double Mode: This is a 1-player mode where the player uses both pads. Every
song has different steps for Double Mode than Single.
---
Select Difficulty
Beginner (BEG): There's no difficulty level for these songs, but you may as
well assume that they're mostly 1-footers. You also have an on-screen
dancer stepping the steps along with you, but only if you have the option
"BG Dancer" turned on in Graphics.
Light (LGT): Most songs range from 2 to 5 feet. This is pretty simple if
you're getting used to DDR.
Standard (STD): Most songs range from 4 to 7 feet. Largely, you'll find that
steps reflect how the music goes, as opposed to just being on the beat.
Heavy (HVY): Most songs range from 6 to 10 feet. These are the tough ones
where they focus on two things: matching the song's notes exactly, and/or
kicking up the difficulty to give you pains.
Oni (ONI): A few songs (including some Song Pack songs) have this as another
"Heavy" difficulty. It could be a lot harder, about the same, or even a
bit easier.
---
Select Music
Use Left and Right to switch songs. Tap Up or Down to change the difficulty.
Press A to select. Press B to go back a screen.
Press Start or select "SORT" to change the sorting from the standard setup to
alphabetical by title, by BPM from fastest to slowest, and alphabetical by the
song's artist.
If you have Edit Data for a song, continue pressing Up or Down to cycle
through the difficulties until you reach your edit.
While your selection's on a song, you'll see a little graphic for the name.
Below the picture, you'll see the BPM for the song (which may be dynamic).
To the right of the graphic are the foot rating for the song (the higher # of
feet, the harder the song) and the Groove Radar.
Groove Radar: This is a graphical representation of the difficulty of the
song. It's broken down into five attributes:
- Stream: More or less the overall number of steps.
- Voltage: How many steps are sandwiched into how much time. Higher voltage
means more steps in less time.
- Air: The overall number of double steps (time spent in the air).
- Freeze: The overall number and length of freeze arrows.
- Chaos: The number of weird steps (not straight 1/4 and 1/8, or steps that
force you turn as you step).
If you can't figure out what song you want, you can select RANDOM. This will
automatically pick a random song at the current difficulty. You will not be
able to adjust anything once you hit the RANDOM button.
---
Select Options
Hold down A as you select your songs to bring up the Song Options menu:
Step: Yet another chance to change the difficulty of your song.
Speed: This is the speed of the arrows on the screen. It doesn't affect the
speed of the song, just the arrows. You can set it to x0.5, x1, x1.5, x2, x3,
x5, or x8.
Boost: If turned on, the arrows will gradually speed up as they move on the
game screen.
Appearance: "Visible" is the normal setting. If "Hidden" is on, the arrows
will vanish about half-way. If "Sudden" is on, the arrows will appear about
half-way. "Phantom" is a combination of both Hidden and Sudden (arrows will
only be visible for an instant in the middle). If "Stealth" is on, you won't
see the arrows at all.
Turn: "Off" is normal. "Mirror" rotates all arrows 180 degrees. "Left"
rotates them 90 degrees to the left. "Right" in the other direction.
"Shuffle" randomizes the steps.
Other: "Off" changes nothing. "Little" will eliminate several steps to make
it easier. "Flat" makes all arrows the same color, as opposed to the
grading colors used to distinguish beats. "Solo" will change colors so that
you can distinguish beats more easily. "Dark" makes the Step Zone
invisible. "Help" throws gold arrows into play. If you step on them, you
get a big boost to your Dance Gauge.
Scroll: "Standard" is normal bottom to top scrolling. "Reverse" is, oddly
enough, scrolling from top to bottom.
Freeze Arrow: You can turn the Freeze Arrows off.
---
Are You Ready?
The main field consists of the arrows and the Step Zone, which is a line of
arrows on the screen. As the song plays, arrows will begin scrolling along
the screen. As the arrows reach the Step Zone, you need to step on those
arrows. If you see a green Freeze Arrow, you need to step on that arrow and
hold it until the Freeze Arrow ends (you don't need to remove your foot when
it ends, just stay on it until it ends, and move your foot at your leisure).
On the top of the screen is the Dance Gauge. It starts about half full. As
you step properly, it'll fill more. If you misstep, your Dance Gauge will
start emptying. If it empties completely, game over.
On the bottom of the screen is the difficulty (in case you forgot), and your
score as it tallies up.
Also in the middle of the screen, you'll see words pop up as you step:
PERFECT: You stepped more or less precisely on the arrow. Combo continues,
the Dance Gauge increases, and you get the maximum possible score from that
step.
GREAT: You just about stepped on the arrow. Combo continues, the Dance Gauge
increases, but you don't get the full score for the step.
GOOD: You're off on the step by a bit. Combo stops, but the Dance Gauge
doesn't change.
ALMOST: You're off on the step by quite a bit. Combo stops, and your dance
meter decreases.
BOO: You completely missed the step. Combo stops, and your Dance Gauge
decreases.
OK!: You stepped on the whole Freeze Arrow.
NG: You stepped off the Freeze Arrow before it ended. Combo continues, but
your Dance Gauge will decrease.
Also marked on the screen is your combo, which is how many PERFECTS and GREATS
you have in a row. The announcer will tell you when you hit 100 combo, 200,
etc.
---
Evaluation
Once you complete the song, you'll see an Evaluation Screen. You'll receive
a letter grade, a tally on how many of each step you got, a meter on how much
of the Groove Radar you filled, your maximum combo, and your score.
The letters are AAA, AA, A, B, C, D, and E.
E is a failing grade.
D through AA are given depending on your dancing abilities. Important aspects
are your combos and your step quality: a large number of PERFECTs will
drastically increase your score, while even a few BOOs will lower it
considerably.
AAA is given for all PERFECTs and OKs on Freeze Arrows.
Press A on the Evaluation screen to return to the song list.

3D. Dancing Tips for the Beginner =
===================================
KEEP PRACTICING!
So, you've just got into DDR, eh? Good for you! You've become a part of a
cult sensation that still holds tons of respect in arcades across the country!
This game will probably seem quite overwhelming to you at first, especially
if you watch people play it and watch them do 9-footers. Don't sweat it.
You CAN be as good as them with the proper practice and effort.
If you really want to get into this, definitely use the Official DDR Pad.
There's no X-BOX controller to use in the arcades, so learn the pad nice and
early. Most game stores have a few of these tucked away (possibly more, if
Konami's hyping this game like they should). If you're truly a beginner, you
may just want to start with a nice cheap pad. That way, if you find it's not
for you, you're not out a huge investment.
So, to begin, use the Training Mode the game provides you. You can adjust the
game to your style. It's no Lesson Mode, but it's all you have in this
game.
Despite the Training Mode, here are some tips I can give you as a beginner:
1. Get a good feeling for the beat. People who have performed with music have
an advantage. People in marching band have a serious advantage. ~_^ You'll
be stepping to the beat in these early stages, so get used to it now.
2. Now that you have the beat, you must "find the arrows". Yeah, sure. I
know they're right there in front of you, to your sides, and behind you, but
can you hit them without looking? Early on, you'll find that's your biggest
problem: taking a step and not landing on the arrow. If you have to look,
look, but that tactic won't last forever, so before a song takes off, take
some cursory steps to make sure you're hitting arrows.
3. Keep your center. Especially on cheap pads with no definition, you'll find
yourself often taking leave of the center of the pad as you continue stepping.
If there's a break in the song, look down to make sure you're in the center.
4. Use the balls of your feet. You may notice, after some days of a lot of
playing, that your ankles will start hurting. That's normal, and it's
happened to most everyone I know that DDRs. This is your feet telling you to
not step with your heels, but with the front of the foot. Get into that
habit.
5. Now that you have these basics, head into Beginner Mode and Light Mode and
start tackling songs. In particular, get used to the speed of the songs, as
well as the speeding-up, slowing-down, and stopping some songs do. Try to
keep your songs at three feet or below, but don't be afraid to venture out
into the great unknown.
=======================================
3E. Dancing Tips for the Intermediate =
=======================================
KEEP PRACTICING!
Well, you're definitely not a n00b anymore (pardon my French). You're at the
point where you wouldn't completely humiliate yourself at the arcades, but
you probably won't impress many people there. In fact, you may just bore them
with your simple steps. It's time to go to the next level.
So, first tip is to KNOW THE SONGS. You don't necessarily need to memorize
the steps, but have a basic understanding of the song before you go into it.
Even memorize the music itself, the lyrics, etc. so you can whistle along.
Know where the tempo changes may occur, where stops are. Most importantly,
know where the songs musical notes occur in the melody, because these will
be mostly what you step.
Now that we're heading into dangerous territory, there is one big rule that
I have to stress right away:
Remember how in the last part I told you to "find your center"? Well, you've
found it by now, so now it's time to GET OFF IT. That's a crutch that's
let you into the game, but it will hold you back later on. What you have to
learn is to return your feet to the center as rarely as possible, if at all.
Move your feet from one arrow to the next, and don't move them unless you have
an arrow to go to. This is probably the hardest thing you'll ever have to
learn as a DDR player. Once you've relinquished your grip on the center, you
only stand to improve up to the highest reaches of DDR-dom.
This actually leads to the other major point of going intermediate:
Eighth notes. Those are those off-colored ones. You'll have to deal with
a lot of them, so learn to love them now. This is actually a good first step
to leaving the center, because you are absolutely required to step three or
more arrows in succession, and you'll have no time to return to the center at
all. Use groups of three eighth notes to figure how to properly move between
arrows; combinations such as up-left-down, where your right foot goes on up,
left foot goes on left, and your right foot is already carrying back towards
the down arrow, for example. Once you get strings of three down, you'll be
ready to tackle longer strings, of four, five, seven, even nine if they're
not too tangly...
So, for this end, you'll want to go for songs of four to six feet in
difficulty, as well as treading into the blue blue waters of Standard Mode.
Just about all songs of this difficulty have at least several eighth notes
to give you practice. Take these opportunities to develop your step
combinations for your own style, so you'll be ready to use them when they
appear again in harder songs.
Also, it may behoove you to get into Workout Mode and repeatedly hammer some
songs, particularly those of a brisk pace. This is a good first step to
building up all-important stamina.
===================================
3F. Dancing Tips for the Advanced =
===================================
KEEP PRACTICING!
All right. You're through messing around, and through getting condescending
looks from your peers at the arcade. It's time to show them what you can
really do and kick it up a notch or three.
If you're really serious now, it's once again time for a new pad. Although
7, 8, and even some 9-footers are possible on a soft, flimsy pad, you just
won't get the high scores you cherish. For this, I turned to RedOctane's
Ignition 2.0. It's also a soft pad, but the thick foam insert, soft gripping
bottom, and raised step platforms make it a good pad for aspiring champions,
all for a paltry 100 clams.
Of course, if you have the money to blow (approximately $300), you may want
to take it even further and buy the Cobalt Flux pad, which is a custom-made
hard metal pad. It's VERY resilient, and much like pads you'll see in the
arcades.
Anyway, pads aside, it's time to get down to business:
First, you better have mastered the stuff from the previous sections. I want
to be able to yell out a song title and for you to hum it right there so you
know what it sounds like. I don't wanna see your feet touch that center,
soldier, or you'll drop and give me fifty. At this point, you should also
have quick enough eye-foot coordination so that matching arrows on the screen
with proper steps is second-nature.
Now, for some new tactics:
Chaos. You'll soon find as you reach the higher levels, that not all arrows
are quarter notes and eighth notes. You'll find sixteenths, twelfths, and
thirty-second notes thrown in to mess you up. Very rarely will they be in
random. Almost always, they'll match up with how the song goes, so you'll
at least have that going for you. So, a thorough knowledge of the songs will
allow you to surmount this hurdle with little difficulty.
Taps. This is the name I like to give eighth notes all on the same arrow.
These are always a pain, because you have to train your foot to tap rapidly on
the same arrow for a possibly long time, and it can really wear you out.
There's no easy way to get around this, you just have to learn it as you go.
Gallops. This is the popular name for a series of steps that has two
sixteenth note steps together, then two sixteen notes of dead space, then two
note steps together, and so on. When you step these notes, you'll feel like
a horse gallopping, which derives the name. Oftentimes, these notes will be
strung so that the last note in one gallop is the first note of the next
gallop. To properly step these, leave your last-stepping foot in place, so
it'll be ready to step the next gallop while your other foot moves to the
next note. This leads to the final tactic.
Axis of Rotation or "crossovers". Contrary to popular belief, you do not have
to have your upper body directly facing the screen at all times. A very
important tactic for the toughest songs is turning your body so that making
truly difficult steps becomes easier. Using alternating feet on long series'
of eighth notes is far less taxing than taking two or more eighth notes with
one foot. The best way to start turning your body is with left-down-right
eighth note combos. Left foot on the left arrow, right foot on the down, and
turn so that your left foot hits the right arrow. It'll be very disorienting
at first, but the hard songs will really take it out of you if you don't
learn. After learning a basic turn, learn to maintain your body at a 90
degree angle to the screen for extended periods of time, and then taking it
further by rotating 180 degrees, or even 270 and 360, if you're brave enough
to take your eyes off the screen.
Finally, it's important to be in relatively good shape for this. You have to
have the proper stamina and leg strength to pull off the toughest ones,
because rather dexterous and tiring feats will be required of you, so keep
pounding at it, do hard songs repeatedly to build up strength, and push
yourself harder and harder to go all the way up to the great green Heavy
Mode.
And lastly, never tackle 10-footers without a good insurance plan backing
you up... ^_^

3G. Dancing Tips for Doubles =
==============================
KEEP PRACTICING!
Get ready to relearn DDR all over again as you branch out towards the second
pad.
First of all, it'd be best you get good pads for this. Soft flat mats are
just no good at all, since they'll slide apart and over each other. Even
Ignition Pads are tough for this, since they can move as well, unless you
can find some way to lash them together. The best, naturally, is the Cobalt
Flux dual setup, which you can connect.
Okay, you probably should begin your Doubles career after at least mastering
Standard on Single, but it's best on Heavy.
One of the greatest things to "unlearn" from Single Play is to be able to
move your entire body. When playing Single, you'll generally maintain your
upper body in one place spatially, but that definitely won't fly on Doubles.
Crossovers take on a whole new meaning when playing on higher levels on
Double Play. In a general sense, you'll be playing with your left foot on
the right arrow on the left pad, while your right foot will be on the left
arrow on the right pad. A lot of the stepcharts on Doubles are engineered so
you dance around that setup.
After that, it's all pretty much getting used to the new setup. Practice and
practice some more. Build up your stamina, learn how to read eight arrows,
and know where to step.

This first set of songs seems to contain most of the big-name licenses,
including those imported from Karaoke Revolution.
(Now it's time for our wrap up
Let's give it everything we've got
Ready? Begin)
Artificial amateurs, aren't at all amazing
Analytically, I assault, animate things
Broken barriers bounded by the bomb beat
Buildings are broken, basically I'm bombarding
Casually create catastrophes, casualties
Cancelling cats got their canopies collapsing
Detonate a dime of dank daily doin dough
Demonstrations, Don Dada on the down low
Eatin other editors with each and every energetic
Epileptic episode, elevated etiquette
Furious fat fabulous fantastic
Flurries of funk felt feeding the fanatics
Gift got great global goods gone glorious
Gettin godly in his game with the goriest
Hit em high, hella height, historical
Hey holocaust hints hear 'em holler at your homeboy
Imitators idolize, I intimidate
In a instant, I'll rise in a irate state
Juiced on my jams like jheri curls jockin joints
Justly, it's just me, writin my journals
Kindly I'm kindling all kinds of ink on
Karate kick type brits in my kingdom
Let me live a long life, lyrically lessons is
Learned lame louses just lose to my livery
My mind makes marvelous moves, masses
Marvel and move, many mock what I've mastered
Niggas nap knowin I'm nice naturally
Knack, never lack, make noise nationally
Operation, opposition, off, not optional
Out of sight, out of mind, wide beaming opticals
Perfected poem, powerful punchlines
Pummelling petty powder puffs in my prime
Quite quaint quotes keep quiet it's Quannum
Quarrelers ain't got a quarter of what we got uh
Really raw raps, risin up rapidly
Riding the rushing radioactivity
Super scientifical sound search sought
Silencing super fire saps that are soft
Tales ten times talented, too tough
Take that, challengers, get a tune up
Universal, unique untouched
Unadulterated, the raw uncut
Verb vice lord victorious valid
Violate vibes that are vain make em vanished
? well would a wise wordsmith just
Weaving up words weeded up, I'm a workshift
Xerox, my X-ray-diation holes extra large
X-height letters, and xylophone tones
Yellow back, yak mouth, young ones yaws
Yesterday's lawn yards sell our (yawn?)
Zig zag zombies, zoomin to the zenith
Zero in zen thoughts, overzealous rhyme ZEA-LOTS!
(good....can you say it faster?)

Lyrics:
Too many words on the the tip of my tongue and
I can never figure out
When to speak when to shout when to shut up
When to knock myself out
I need a brainwash
Gray-matter bath
I need the clutter all
Thrown in the trash
I need a brain wash, cause I'm a loon
So could ya please throw my head in a tub?
I could really use a cereberal scrub
Wash away what I know
It's an overrated frontal lobe
Expensive thrills
sexual perversity
are always filling my mind
Mixed with guilt
Cause of bombs over dresden
Are kinda bringing me down
I need a brainwash
Gray-matter bath
I need the clutter all
Thrown in the trash
I need a brain wash, cause I'm a loon
Cause Im a psycho-babble brain
A real life looney toon
A mixed up maniac, Im certifyable
So put me in a room right next to Nicholson
And give me thorazine Cause all I wanna do
Is sing traditional songs
But I like to sing in minor technologies
Not making sense
So could you please throw my head in a tub
I could really use a cereberal scrub
Wash away all I know
It's an over rated frontal lobe

When you leave I'm begging you not to go
Call your name two or three times in a row
Such a funny thing for me to try to explain
How I'm feeling and my pride is the one to blame
'Cause I know I don't understand
Just how your love you're doing no one else can
Got me looking so crazy right now, your love's
Got me looking so crazy right now (in love)
Got me looking so crazy right now, your touch
Got me looking so crazy right now (your touch)
Got me hoping you'll page me right now, your kiss
Got me hoping you'll save me right now
Looking so crazy in love's
Got me looking, got me looking so crazy in love.
Uh oh, uh oh, uh oh, oh no, no
Uh oh, uh oh, uh oh, oh no, no
Uh oh, uh oh, uh oh, oh no, no
Uh oh, uh oh, uh oh, oh no, no
When I talk to my friends so quietly
Who he think he is? Look at what you did to me
Tennis shoes, don't even need to buy a new dress
If you ain't there ain't nobody else to impress
The way that you know what I thought I knew
It's the beat my heart skips when I'm with you
But I still don't understand,
Just how the love you're doing no one else can.
Got me looking so crazy right now, your love's
Got me looking so crazy right now (in love)
Got me looking so crazy right now, your touch
Got me looking so crazy right now (your touch)
Got me hoping you'll page me right now, your kiss
Got me hoping you'll save me right now
Looking so crazy in love's,
Got me looking, got me looking so crazy in love.

I need an alarm system in my house
So I know when people are
Creeping about
These people are
Freaking me out (these days)
It’s getting hectic everywhere that I go
They won’t leave me alone
There’s things they all wanna know
I'm paranoid of all the people I meet
Why are they talking to me?
And why can’t anyone see
I just wanna live
Don’t really care about the things that they say
Don’t really care about what happens to me
I just wanna live
Just wanna live [x6]
I rock a
Lawsuit when I’m going to court
A white suit when I’m gettin’ divorced
A black suit at the funeral home
And my birthday suit when I’m home alone
Talkin’ on the phone
Got an interview
With the rolling stone
They’re saying
“Now you’re rich and
Now you’re famous
Fake ass girls all know your name and
Lifestyles of the rich and famous
Your first hit aren’t you ashamed?”
Of the life [x2]
Of the life we’re livin’
I just wanna live
Don’t really care about the things that they say
Don’t really care about what happens to me
I just wanna live
Stop your messin’ around boy
Better think of your future
Better make some good plans boy
Said everyone of my teachers
Lookout
You better play it safe
You never know what hard times will come your way
We say
Where we’re coming from
We’ve already seen
The worst that this life can bring
Now we expect it everywhere that we go
All the things that they say
Yeah we already know
I just wanna live
Don’t really care about the things that they say
Don’t really care about what happens to me
Just wanna live [x3]
I just wanna live
Just wanna live [x3]

We were at a party

We were at the beach
Everybody had matching towels
Somebody went under a dock
And there they saw a rock
It wasn't a rock
It was a rock lobster
Motion in the ocean
His air hose broke
Lots of trouble
Lots of bubble
He was in a jam
S'in a giant clam
Down, down
Underneath the waves
Mermaids wavin'
Wavin' to mermen
Wavin' sea fans
Sea horses sailin'
Dolphins wailin'
Red snappers snappin'
Clam shells clappin'
Muscles flexin'
Flippers flippin'
Down, down
Let's rock!
Boy's in bikinis
Girls in surfboards
Everybody's rockin'
Everybody's fruggin'
Twistin' 'round the fire
Havin' fun
Bakin' potatoes
Bakin' in the sun
Put on your noseguard
Put on the lifeguard
Pass the tanning butter
Here comes a stingray
There goes a manta-ray
In walked a jelly fish
There goes a dogfish
Chased by a catfish
In flew a sea robin
Watch out for that piranha
There goes a narwhale

I'm your guardian angel, trust in me
So many times I've been watching you
and now I fell in love with you!
So many times I'm watching you
and now I fell in love with you
So many times... so many times...
So many times I'm watching you
and now I fell in love with you
So many times... so many times...
And I fell in love with you
So many times, I’m watchin' you
And I fell in love with you
So many times, I’m watchin' you
And I fell in love with you
So many times, I’m watchin' you
And I fell in love with you
So many times, I’m watchin' you
And I fell in love with you
Do your heart, feel so lonely
think about your sweetest dream
close your eyes, and follow me
and I'll take you to my destiny
I'm thinking about you, all the time
when I keep my love to you, that's the crime
so many times I've been watching you
and now I fell in love with you!
So many times I'm watching you

Lyrics:
Oh yeah what we're living in (let me tell ya)
It' a wonder man can eat at all
When things are big
That should be small
Who can tell what magic spells we'll be doing for us.
And I'm giving all my love to this world
Only to be told
I can't see, I can't breathe
No more will we be
And nothing's gonna change the way we live
Cuz we can always take and never give
And now that things are changing for the worse,
See, it's a crazy world we're living in
And I just can't see that half of us immersed in sin
Is all we have to give these
Futures made of virtual insanity
now always seem, to be governed by this love we have
For useless, twisting, our new technology
Oh now there is no sound for we all live underground
And I'm thinking in what a mess we're in
Hard to know when to begin
If I could slip the sickly ties that earthly man has made
And now every mother can choose the color of her child
That's not nature's way
Well that's what they said yesterday
There's nothing left to do but pray
I think it's time I found a new religion
Whoaaa it's so insane to synthesize another strain
There's something in these futures that we have to be told.
Futures made of virtual insanity
now always seem, to be governed by this love we have
For useless, twisting of our then new technology
Oh now there is no sound for we all live underground
Now there's no sound if we all live underground
And now it's virtual insanity
Forget your virtual reality
Oh, there's nothing so bad, I know yeah
(Bridge)
Oh, this virtual insanity, we're living in,
Has got to change, yeah
Things will never be the same
And I can't go on
While we're living in oh, oh virtual insanity
Oh, this world has got to change
Cos I just, I just can't keep going on, it was virtual,
Virtual insanity that we're living in, that we're living in
That virtual insanity is what it is
Chorus x2:
Futures made of virtual insanity
now always seem to be governed by this love we have
For useless, twisting, our new technology
Oh there is no sound for we all live underground
Living - Virtual Insanity
Living - Virtual Insanity
Living - Virtual Insanity
Living - Virtual Insanity
Virtual Insanity is what we're living in

and I talked till my daddy say,
said "ya ain't seen nothin till your down on a muffin,
and theres sure to be a change in way"

as far as I could reminice
and the best thing lovin' was you sister and your cousin
and it started with a little kiss, like this
She start swingin' with the boys in school
and her feet are flyin' up in the air
singin hey diddle diddle with the titty in the middle,
and you swingin like you just dont care
so I took a big chance at the highschool dance
with a lady who was ready to play
it wasn't me she was foolin'
cause she new what she was doin
when she told me how to walk this way, she told me to
CHORUS
walk this way, talk this way (x2)
she told me to
walk this way, talk this way (x2)
just give me a kiss...like this
school girl sleezy with a classy kinda sassy
little skirt hangin way up her knee
there were three young ladies in a school gym locker
and I find there were lookin at D
I was a highschool loser never made it with a lady
till the boys told me somethin' i miss
then my next door neighbor
had a daughter, had a favour
and I gave the girl a little kiss, like this
she start swingin' with the boys in the school,
with your feet flyin up in the air
singin hey diddle diddle
with the titty in the middle
I was swingin like I didnt care

Before the cream sits out too long
You must whip it
When something's going wrong
You must whip it
now whip it
into shape
shape it up
get straight
go forward
move ahead
try to detect it
it's not too late
to whip it
whip it good
When a good time turns around
You must whip it
You will never live it down
Unless you whip it
No one gets their way
Until they whip it
I say whip it
Whip it good

Lyrics:
Lights in the distance
Showing me the way I’d forgotten
I’ve gone too far in confusion
I’ve been lost
It may take some time
But I know that somehow I will get
To my destination
Now I’m leaving it all behind
I don’t know what it is I expect to find
But I’ll always want you here by my side
Come with me
Come with me
Come with me now
Changing direction
Following my guiding intuition
I’ve gone too far in confusion
I’ve been lost
Now I’m leaving it all behind…
Over and over
I said tomorrow takes me home
Over and over
I found myself still astray
Now I’m leaving it all behind…

You taught me right
You taught me wrong
You told me to always be strong
You paved the way
You showed me fear
I know now what was unclear
I saw one thing yet heard another
I was too young to understand
I never knew what to believe
I feel so deceived
Confusion in my head
Don't understand all that you said
Yet now I see the light
It's times like these I realize
But how can I with these mixed messages that you did bring?
And forgive all the pain you caused
all of the suffering
Keep my perspective straight
Keep me away from hate
Keep my eyes so bright, uncovered
Oh please won't you guide me towards the light?
Conflict, confusion, distrust...

To keep me in his net
Yes I need, I need my samurai

I can't seem to find my way of life
Since you've been gone, I feel lonely at night
I close my eyes and it's alright
It takes a second to remember them
"Boom, boom, boom," said my heart
When I first saw you
When we were just getting closer
"Down, down, down," says my mind
Now that love is gone
I feel that it's time for me to say
(Bye bye bye)
Bye bye baby balloon
My feelings are blue
One day you were mine
We're now just apart
Bye bye baby balloon
My feelings were true
We thought it was right
But today you say goodbye
Bye bye baby balloon

Artist Notes: Captain Jack was a band led by Franky Gee (Francisco Alejandro
Guiterrez), a Cuban-born American who has done his time in the military.
After leaving the service, he decided to leave the country that seemed so
pro-war to him, so he settled in Germany, where he eventually picked up his
music career. He tragically passed away in October of 2005, and the future
of the group is uncertain. While his style may seem militaristic, his songs
are often about anti-war and pro-unity. He's the male vocalist for this tune,
and Liza Da Costa is the female vocalist.

Lyrics:
Wanna dance? Under the sunshine
Hand in hand!
Wanna dance? On a special day
Carnival day!
Wanna dance? Happy music playing
Clap your hands
Wanna dance? Everyone, come on!
On to the next! (Go!)
Who will be the luckiest guy in town
To dance with that carnival queen?
Shall we dance? Lalala...
Form a ring!
Care to dance? Lalala...
Hand in hand!
Macho guys "Wooo!"
Gorgeous guys "Yeah!"
Hard workers "Here!"
And Intelligentsia "Yep!"
Sure you are very attractive
But to be my date
Please!
You've got to be a dancer!
"I can dance!" "That's me!"
"Hey, I can dance!" "I'm the one"
Wanna dance? Under the sunshine
Hand in hand!
Wanna dance? On a special day
Carnival day!
Wanna dance? Happy music playing
Clap your hands
The world is a happy place
Carnival day!
Hand in hand!
On to the next! (Go!)

I can dance for hours and hours
Oh, yes, it's my day
When I dance, the wind will blow
And the stars will fall from the sky
I dance just for myself
I'm the music, I'm the dance
What fun! Let's dance
What fun! Let's dance
I'm dancing to fri-fri-sixty
I'm the music, I'm the dance
par la fenetre de ta fiat 500
tu me regardius et je t'ai vu
tes gout semblanit parfait
on s'est compris tout de suite a fond
et des rendez-vous de la nuit
parfois on s'attend sous la pluie
et tout, c'etait miracle
la musique!
les yeux dans les yeux
nos histoires romantiques
on commence tous les deux
pres de moi?

And fly high to the skies!
You can never forgive anything I do
Don't you see I wanna be free too
Us together is nothing you need
Let's just crash this party!
Be always there strong and fierce
For I can only think of you
Won't believe there's an end-
For the distance let's find a true tomorrow!
Break Down! Blasting what I love: music!
Heightening tension, send it all to outer space!
Engine maxxed out, gonna jump on this jet stream
Every bit of anger and sorrow- get it all out of my life!
[Hey girl! Your sad story is tiring me out
I don't need it- you've gotta be like low-level?]
Let's go! Until I'm about to explode-
Until I can't hear a word, gonna cut through to your heart
Let's go! I'm maxxed out- You can never fight me-
Cuz I'll never lose! Cuz I just want to be yours!

Nonsense language from a rotating head, high tension and a firm beat
From a 5-match janken match I guide comes tactics for big opinions
35 plus 4 divided by 2, the partygoers who don't burst open don't know
This sociable sound demon screwing into an obtuse angle easily
They dunno where from or where to, but anyway he divided the sound
Everyone's winding chatter is a dangling handkerchief
An alteration in the radar and in the nonsense coming over the airwaves
If you start snorin', your heartbeat that's goin' up as much as your
personality changes
Is really greedy, but there's power and land of the priest's staff
And since I was born, I've kept on playin' like this.
Nonsense language from a rotating head, high tension and a firm beat
From a 5-match janken match I guide comes tactics for big opinions
Nonsense language from a rotating head, high tension and a firm beat

Really, you don't have to worry if you extend over to this slow train
Don Pach Don Pach Don Today, on this Japanese island where they're sexin' it up
From 3rd street to 4th streeth, from main street to the carnal desires,
Pack up the duties left to you, take it all gently,

Song Type: Konami Original
First Appearance: pop'n music 6
DDR Debut: DDR Extreme (Arcade)
American Appearances: DDR Extreme 2
Artist Notes: The original artist is "DES-ROW feat. TSUBOI for ALPHA". The
artist as you see it is how it appears in Guitar Freaks and drummania. I
don't get it, but DES-ROW is Osamu Migitera, an artist with several beatmania
and pop'n music tunes.
Misc. Notes: "Dai kenkai" means "big opinion" in Japanese. "Janken", is more
locally known as "Rock, Paper, Scissors". "Don Pach" is one of two things,
a popular Japanese confectionary similar to pop rocks, or the sound a
machine gun makes (probably the latter). Oh, and the lyrics are really not
supposed to make sense.

Give you the run around, like run you right outa'
All alone am I, I put my nose to the grindstone
From my mind, to pen to the paper
Back to the mind,
M-m-m-m-mind
This beat is hard as crack,
Without tact, it's a mismatch
Come on baby, it's party time

Someday, somehow, somewhere
We're gonna have magic in the air

Girl, give it up, go and run away
To the arms of a magic day
Where you can stay
Where you can find yourself
Find yourself
Lose your fear, 'cause there is no one here
Do what you want to do
There's nobody stopping you, no
Give yourself and let the music take you far
Then you will know who you are
Higher
We're getting higher
(Won't you show me how?)
You and I
I know we can move if we try
You know this is how it should be
Baby, getting higher
We're getting higher
Open up your eyes
Everyday is a surprise
You are the one
Baby, the only one
Tonight
We're getting higher
We're getting higher
Start again from here
And a new you will appear
You are the one, baby isn't this fun
Tonight~!

There are three ways to unlock songs in this game. One is to play Quest Mode.
At times, there may be people who would like you to trade in flags. Do so,
and you may get one of the secret songs.
The second way is different for every song. Here's the list of "normal"
unlocks.
BRILLIANT R•E•D by NAOKI feat. Tahirih Walker
Unlock: Earn 95,000,000 points on any song with a difficulty of 9+
Colors (Midihead's Sapphire Mix) by Midihead
Unlock: Get AA on Jelly Kiss and Raise Your Hands on the three main
difficulties.
Dança de Yuka by Big Idea
Unlock: Pass Rock-A-Billy Willy on the three main difficulties.
ever snow by YOMA KOMATSU
Unlock: Get an A on BREAK DOWN! and Firefly on any difficulty.
Frozen Ray (DIRTYHERTZ Mix) by dj TAKA
Unlock: Get 40 OKs on Freeze Arrows on any song.
Giudecca by DJ SETUP
Unlock: Get a AA or higher on bag, Sakura, and The legend of MAX, all on
Heavy.
Himawari by Riyu from Be For U
Unlock: Get an A on Carnival Day, Sunflower Girl, and CANDY* on the three main
difficulties.
Insaner by Jondi & Spesh
Unlock: Get a score of higher than 400,000 in the Credits mini-game.
Jelly Kiss (Midihead's Smack Mix) by Midihead
Unlock: Play 10 songs?
LOVE THIS FEELIN' (ZONK REMIX) by ZONK
Unlock: Get a AA on any song, any difficulty.
Music to Your Head by Slake
Unlock: Get an A on Miracle Moon, KISS ME ALL NIGHT LONG, and e-motion on any
difficulty.
PARADE OF THE WOODEN SOLDIERS by Leon Jessel
Unlock: It should be automatically unlocked by now. It automatically unlocks
any time after Christmas Day, 2005.
Rainbow Flyer by dj TAKA
Unlock: Get a AAA on any song, any difficulty.
Right On Time by DJ NAGUREO/Robbie Danzie
Unlock: Get an A on Destiny lovers and Daikenkai on any difficulty.
The legend of MAX
Unlock: Get a non-failing grade on every regular song on Single, any
difficulty.
The third way is to use the secret "unlock all songs" code. To do this, go
into Options, then to Credits, to play the Credits mini-game. Here's how
it works: whatever the arrows tell you, do the OPPOSITE. If it tells you to
step Up, hit Down. If it tells you Left, hit Right. If it tells you to do
a Left/Right jump, hit Up/Down (kinda not really opposite, but that's how it
goes). Do this a few times until a tone is heard and all hidden songs will
be unlocked, as well as the two hidden dances, Honey, and B'.
The other way to unlock the hidden dancers is to trade in flags in Quest Mode
and get all puzzle pieces for their pictures.
I'm not going to allow people with small personal sites to post this FAQ.
They may post the link on GameFAQs with all the DDRUM3 guides, but, trying to
keep updates, well, updated, I'll only allow large committed sites that I
trust.
If you wish to e-mail me, be sure to follow these guidelines...
- Make ABSOLUTELY sure I haven't already answered your question in the guide.
- Make sure it has something to do with DDR Ultramix 3. I don't want spam,
chain letters, offers for friendship. Don't bother me with info on other DDR
games, really. I keep my ear pretty close to the ground about such things,
and I'll probably know about it before you. Compliment me on the FAQ all you
want, though...
- Make sure you say "DDR Ultramix 3" at one point in your e-mail. I have more
than one DDR FAQ, and I can't always figure the question out without
specifying what game you're asking about.
- Asking how to beat a song will result in a deletion. Unfortunately, I'm not
in a position to offer advice for this game.
- Spell correctly and use proper grammar, please. If I can't understand
your e-mail, it'll go to the junk pile...

10C. Credits =
==============
CJayC and Al Amaloo for having this on their sites.
www.animelyrics.com, for compiling, catalouging, and translating tons of
lyrics, including those in the DDR games.
Konami and the BEMANI studio, for their effort in bringing a superb game to
the States.
======================
10D. Version Updates =
======================
Version 0.5 - 1/30/06 - Still a lot of space to fill, even with the fact that
I've cut out my usual walking-through stuff. I've posted full lyrics for
the songs, so if anyone wants to snip those for me for the DDR edits, I'd
appreciate it.
=====================
10E. The Final Word =
=====================
Yeah, real sorry I couldn't give you the whole nine yards on this one, unless
someone has an X-BOX they're willing to hand out. >_>
