Song Connections / Remixes

• Spica sounds quite different on all three difficulties.
  • The beatmania IIDX 7th style Original Soundtrack version of Spica is based on the HYPER chart version of the song, albeit with an extended ending.
  • In REFLEC BEAT, Spica's BASIC, MEDIUM/HARD, and SPECIAL/WHITE HARD charts use Spica's NORMAL, HYPER, and ANOTHER versions of the song, respectively.
• A live medley of Spica, OVER THE CLOUDS, and Make A Difference was played at the beatmania IIDX secret LIVE ~one night premium party~ on September 13th, 2003. This medley can be found on the BEMANI トップランカー決定戦 2006 prize CD, titled wacのライブ用トラック１。　ハウスっぽいやつ集めたの。.

Trivia

• Spica's overlays were removed from the beatmania IIDX arcade games as of beatmania IIDX 20 tricoro due to technical issues.

  • In REFLEC BEAT VOLZZA 2, it was playable by default.
• Spica has different jackets for BASIC, MEDIUM/HARD and SPECIAL/WHITE HARD.
  • These jackets are based on the original overlays for Spica in beatmania IIDX.
