Overview

We Gonna Journey is a high-energy original track by Queen P.A.L., an alias of veteran composer Cranky (Hiroshi Watanabe). The song first appeared in SEGA's CHUNITHM as an ORIGINAL-class entry before crossing over into both maimai (MiLK PLUS, October 2018) and ONGEKI. As its title suggests, We Gonna Journey is the direct sequel to We Gonna Party, which Cranky had previously contributed to maimai PLUS. The Queen P.A.L. moniker carries a long history in the Japanese BMS/doujin scene, Cranky had not used it since BMS OF FIGHTERS 2009, and before that, 2004's T&J entry with Hime and VJ KinTa. In maimai, the song sits under the ONGEKI & CHUNITHM genre category, reflecting its cross-franchise origin. The track features vocals and lyrics by Pico*, and its driving 160 BPM beat is matched by dense charting: Jack handled the EXPERT layout, while 小鳥遊さん designed the MASTER chart at level 13+ (constant 13.9), pushing toward the upper end of the MiLK-era difficulty spectrum.
