I have the one block syndrome. I hit one grey block to screw up stealth and then I make the rest of the stage flawlessly without pressure. 
Yep, that's why I sometimes deliberately hit a grey early on during practice runs as it relieves a lot of pressure. Helps me relax and find the "flow" of the track so that I get a flawless run later on.
Curiously enough, I find that I play best when I either put my brain in vegetable mode (just sitting there with a brain-dead look, not thinking at all) or distracting myself with other thoughts. Thinking about the game == fail. My muscle memory plays far better than my consciousness.
Also, the widen ability is extremely useful, and I use it rather extensively. However, there are times that honor demands that I play in ironmode, and after that I frequently forget/can't be bothered to turn it off...

Doesn't using widen break your combo bonus you get from getting consecutive colours? Might just be me, or I've been looking at the wrong thing... favourite songs to play at the moment are the DragonForce ones. :)

Ok I upped another one: Dragonforce - Cry For Eternity. Ninja Mono, I hit 5-6 grey ones but I still make global 2nd best.  (sound desynchs a bit toward the end unfortunately).

So true.
And yeah I haven't learned to use the shoulder extension thingie yet, as you can see. If it breaks combos I better not even start, though.

Tried the F-Zero GX soundtrack on Ninja Mono, far too hard for me...

AFAIK Widen dosen't work when you're playing on 'Ironmode', nor can you get rid of Greys (but they go away by themselves over time, or simply overwrite coloured blocks you have)

Woot, FINALLY got Ninja Stealth \o/
It's on Lacuna Coil's "To Live is to Hide", which although may not be the hardest track in the world... is DEFINATELY not the easiest. Orange/Reddish all the way through 
Framerate seems a bit shoddy for some reason. Not sure why, FRAPs recorded smoothly but Vegas seemed to do some dodgy compiling or something and it came out a little choppy in parts, but the idea is there
Unfortunately I don't think I want to hear this song ever again in fear of being reminded of the horrible tortue this game put me through

Just got it last night. Great fun with almost any kind of music so far. Any recommendations on any songs that work great with it?
