The song gets upgraded every 6 levels, so with a lute and
standing, rengen rates should be:

L30-35 = 13 hp/pulse
L36-41 = 15 hp/pulse
L42-47 = 17 hp/pulse
L47-50 = 19 hp/pulse

Yeah, I'm reminded about something said by the head of the
KGB during the cold war. He said the hardest thing about
spying on the U.S. was that there was so much incorrect
information going around that it was hard to tell what was the
truth and what was common misperception. That's partly what's
taking me so long with this song guide. I *want* to include
all the test numbers other people have come up with and
posted, but I don't really know how reliable it is (no offense
intended to all you other testers :). So I'm still winding up
testing a lot of stuff myself.
