Clue #7: Between Ghana and the skies
< the first line of "Wasted Years" is "from the coast of gold" // Gold Coast is the former name of Ghana (up to 1957); "Sea of Madness" is between "Wasted Years" and "Heaven Can Wait" (hence "the skies") on the album.
Clue #8: This song has got one songwriter and it has been played live, though not for a long time.
< self-explanatory
Clue #9: Gamma Ray "Tribute to the Past" 5'04
< this GR song lasts precisely 5'04, so at this moment the second one on the Insanity & Genius album, "No Return", starts // "Reached the point of no return"
