Out of curiosity does anyone else think a couple of the official tracks names were mislabeled in a way? What I mean is that while these are the official track names I'm presuming there was probably an error or two in the official titles.

For example I can't see any reason why there's be an apostrophe in "Ruin`s of Wander" and while I'm not entirely sure on this one, from what I can tell "Departures Heaven" probably should have had an apostrophe as I can't think of any context where "Departures/Departure Heaven" would make sense unless it was meant to be "Departure's Heaven." That or perhaps it's like with Airplane Departures, though it should have been "Departures: Heaven" or "Departures, Heaven" if that's the case.

A number of DMC albums have songs with iffy titles. I think they're just not especially great at English (which is far from unique, of course).

Yeah, for example checking through some of the others soundtracks that Loser Kashiwagi has worked on there really are some wonky titles (particularly the older albums.) I particularly like the titles for "CHO REN SHA 68K ORIGINAL SOUNDTRACKS." It's got stuff like "Cooktail Of Galaxy" and "Planet The E.A.R.T.H." Granted at least with those it appears much simpler to grasp what was trying to be said.

I'm quite particular when it comes to tagging my music so I was originally hoping I could attempt contacting DMC through their site in an unlikely hope that they could perhaps answer my question. Sadly however when I went to the site's contact/request mail form page it was all garbled text like "¥ƒŠƒNƒGƒXƒgƒtƒH[ƒ€" and such.

I know that there's probably no way in coming to a definite answer regarding the actual intention since they're only written in English with no Japanese or anything else to go by but would you perhaps have a guess as to what the indented writing was meant to be?
