Tracks

The Blue Hearts' previous American release, the self-titled CD/12" vinyl EP, was a 6-song compilation with selections from their self-titled first album, The Blue Hearts, and their second album, Young and Pretty. As with their first American release, this album was also a compilation of songs: this time from their first album and their third, Train-Train.[3] The first four songs were from The Blue Hearts and the rest were from Train-Train, except for "Chernobyl" and "The Blue Hearts Theme", which had only been released as singles in Japan. The original Japanese title of the songs is in parentheses.

gollark: Did Bernie secretly work in a Chinese bioweapons lab to create coronavirus to influence the election?
gollark: Which is partly due to governments trying to isolate people a lot.
gollark: Anyway, to be honest it seems that the Covid-19 panic has been amplified out of control, and the reactions to it and reactions to those reactions may cause more problems than the actual disease.
gollark: Also, typing speed isn't really a massive issue most of the time *anyway*, as long as you can type decently fast.
gollark: Not necessarily. It makes it easier to type with both hands, which is faster.
