Song Connections / Remixes

Trivia
- Bad boy marks the first appearance of singer vivi in BEMANI.
- Although from beatmania IIDX 2nd style, Bad boy does not appear on the beatmania maniac-tracks album with the other 2nd style KONAMI original songs. It instead appeared on the beatmania IIDX 3rd style Original Soundtracks album seven months later.
- Bad boy received brand-new LIGHT charts in beatmania IIDX 4th style. The ANOTHER14 chart was moved down to 14KEY as well.
- In beatmania IIDX 5th style and beatmania IIDX 6th style, though, Bad boy's DOUBLE charts were replaced with their original charts, but kept the new LIGHT7 chart. In beatmania IIDX 7th style though, the new DOUBLE charts returned, and were used for the rest of the series.
- From beatmania IIDX 3rd style to beatmania IIDX 8th style, Bad boy's BPM was shown as 94 BPM.
- According to Keiichi Ueno, he wanted to include both Shine On and Bad boy on Rewind!, but didn't due to Don Katsumoto's (ドン勝本) death in 2007, as he introduced both Shorai and vivi to Keiichi Ueno.
Song Production Information
dj TAKA
This song, a Dance Pop song, has the most atmosphere of any song in its genre so far in IIDX. The lyrics, which are about a girl's crush, may seem a bit corny, but Keiichi Ueno didn't seem to mind. The song's lyrics are a favorite of GOLI's in our increasing repertoire of songs we've received so far.
