Good Practice Songs?

What are some songs you think are good practice for certain moves?

EX....

Crossovers:
SUNKiSS DROP

Freeze:
Curus

Curus is only good for Freeze's on Difficult/standard from what I remember. Expert is a lot harder.

I've been wondering if rainbow rainbow is good for spins. I've been trying to figure out if the left-down-up-right-left-down-up-right part allows for a spin or not. I know that's good for at least getting yourself to do crossovers.

Max-Extreme had ALOT of good practice songs. A couple come to mind

easy crossovers - Freckles, Healing Vision (AM), higher (next morning mix)
If you really want to master crossovers, play Can't stop Falling in Love Speed Mix at a lower speed. That song helps streaming, crossovers, and gallops.

if you have access to 4th mix, Saints Come Marching In has both spins and crossovers

My only problems are streams (Depending) and the single-step-stream of that song. I just lose my own rhythm after about 5 steps and GOOD/ALMOST the rest.

Single step streams are kinda hard to master. Can't Stop Falling in Love (SM) and Dead End have those kind of steps. A thing like that comes when you get your speed up. With me, one day I was just able to do it. Just keep practicing.

a lot of people seem to like to play AM3P to get into crossovers. As for me, I just played on heavy even when i was doomed to fail (at the time I was on light mode, and I never played standard) until I just got the hang of it.

for crossovers i think the best song is under the sky

for easy gallops, the song is cow girl...then you can practice on true...(trance sunrise mix), saint goes marching remix, then rhythm n police....

I think good songs for gallops and multi-pressing the same arrow are Tsugaru and Tsugaru (apple mix). I feel... is good for many arrows below 1/4th step.

for off beats, I would suggest HEALING-D-VISION, the whole beginning has some off beats, as in they are not placed half notes, or whole notes. Seems alot of people that play the game have problems with those notes, and I can see why.

Sunkiss drop is repeative enough so you can practise the same crossover moves over and over, which is good. Telephone operator, Freckles. KKK and Oridinary world for freeze crossovers. R&P and EE for advanced crossovers.

I've played Flowers on StepMania with a pad, and that seems like good enough practice with gallops.

Too bad most don't even have SN2.

The entire song can be done entirely with crossovers. There's really nowhere to spin; even the quarter steps flow into the crossovers.

Arrabbiata can be used for streams and crossovers combined...even though the song is a little b-i-t-c-h.
