Song Connections / Remixes
- An extended version of Second Heaven appears on Ryu☆'s first album, starmine.
- A remix of Second Heaven by DJ Yoshitaka, titled Second Heaven -Samba, Samba, SomeBody MIX-, also appears in starmine.
- Another extended version, titled Second Heaven (STARLiGHT Mix), appears on the Ryu☆BEST -STARLiGHT- album.
- A speed remix of Second Heaven by Risk Junk, titled Second Heaven (Risk Junk Remix), appears on the cyber beatnation 2 -Hi Speed conclusion- album.
- Another remix of Second Heaven by ラマーズP, titled Second Heaven Lamaze-REMIX, can be found in SOUND VOLTEX BOOTH.
- Second Heaven, BRILLIANT 2U (AKBK MIX), FIRE FIRE, Narcissus At Oasis (Freezer Remix), Phantom dinning tonight!, Rave Cannon, Seventh Heaven, ULTRA HAPPY MEGAMIX, and 背水之陣 (Kagutsuchi Remix) share the same "Somebody scream!" vocal sample. This sample is lifted from the 1999 song La Karabina by DJ D2 (heard at 1:10 in the video), which in turn sampled the 1988 song The Party by Kraze. The Party contained the same "Somebody scream!" sample, but at a slightly higher pitch.
- In Japan, this sample was misheard as 3倍アイスクリーム (sanbai aisukuriimu, 3 scoops of ice cream) and became an inside joke of the Japanese BEMANI community. The inside joke was acknowledged in the jackets for the aforementioned Second Heaven Lamaze-REMIX, where RASIS holds an ice cream cone with three scoops of ice cream.
- An updated version of Second Heaven, titled Second Heaven 2k15, appears on Ryu☆'s seventh album, Seventh Heaven.
- Another remix of Second Heaven by P*Light, titled Second Heaven (P*Light Remix), can be found on Ryu☆'s compilation album, Ryu☆BEST -STARLiGHT-.
- Yet another remix of Second Heaven by cosMo@暴走P, titled Second Heaven GravityPfArrange, appears in SOUND VOLTEX IV HEAVENLY HAVEN.

Genre explanation.
HANDZ UP is a genre of music that is mainly produced in Germany,
Simply put, it is like the Buchiage Trance of Germany (Do not quote me on this).
Solid bass to kick-based solid bass, and solid bass sustains this.
The low number of sound, features a sparkling track with a lot of power.
It is very powerful, and this style has hit the top of the US dance tracks.
A song from this genre hit No. 10 on the charts.
This was the genre's first major achievement.
