It's totally cool if you enjoy all the technical guitar work being crapped on. Go ahead and compare the chorus of Izonshou to the SS version let alone the ending solo. The solo in Kyogenshou? The chorus that doesn't repeat on the album? The guitar break in GX Aozora? Riveting stuff. All the intricate synth and electronics from SS? Gone. I'd take the album versions of almost any MM/SS song over the GX version.

If you want to say you like it for other reasons, go ahead. I mean, I respect this:

and the rest of that post more than whatever bullshit you're trying to imply with this:

Now, say something about SS being overproduced compared to MM.
An impossibility when the opposite is more true. Still, wouldn't it have been nice if I had mentioned something in the same vein in that very post you quoted...

Oh. I guess I meant to say if the production wasn't so different, right? And in case you're wondering, it's Yami ni Furu Ame and Tsumi to Batsu that I feel wouldn't fit on MM as well as the rest of the songs.

*shrugs* Whatever. If you think I'm being nitpicky and hyperbolic, you don't need to try to be so cute with it.
