Cover art for pre-X2 licenses - Updated 26/5/11 [56K]

Just because I'm bored right now... It's unlikely that outside of the recent classic Dancemania revival trend that old licenses will be re-introduced into the game, so for those of you that are taking the plunge with X2 themes for SM-SSC or anyone who's collecting I decided to make a master list of covers for licenses in the DDR series.

Of the DDR games released, the trend with covers seems pretty straight forward. Songs that were a single get their single artwork, if not they get the artwork for the album they appeared in. Licenses and originals reappearing from a previous game that used backgrounds have those background images cropped into a square (With the exception of the 2008 X-edits (With the exception of Hero)), licenses and originals reappearing from a previous game without backgrounds have covers extrapolated from their respective banners. There is deviation from this here and there but this is the general flow of it.

This thread will focus on commercial cover art for licensed singles and album songs. Licensed is a hard to define term in the realm of DDR music so ANY song with commercially released cover art counts, even if done after the fact.

Edit: Re-organized the layout so it's easier to tell what cover goes with what song & including single and album art where possible.
