I'm gonna hate myself for doing this, cause it makes one of my best scores ever seem far less impressive, but there's no way this is a 60. It's basically a longer and slightly slower Dimensions with less jumpgluts and a bit less 16th stream. The only parts that are that difficult are the jump pattern with grace notes at 1080ish combo and the bit of stream at the end at 1600ish combo, and they certainly don't merit a rating in the 50s or upper 40s. Any resemblance of this paragraph with Guest15937's post in an earlier thread are completely accidental.

Let's examine the comparison in more detail. I'm going to start with Dimensions, which is 3:57 long and has 1741 arrows. Most of it is red/blue slow jumpstreamy stuff with some jumpgluts in it at around 540, 1030, 1630, a few others. There are some jacks/anchor jumps at around 370-460, 860-960, 1200-1290, and they're the same speed as the rest of the song. There are little bits of 16th streamy things at 200, 360, 850, 1100, and a longer stream at 1510-1570 and also right at the end. This is a 49.

Survive is 4:35 with 1789 arrows, pretty similar. Again, most of it is red/blue slow jumpstreamy stuff, and there's some yellow in it at 900ish but the tempo halves there, so it's pretty much the same thing. Except, there are no jumpgluts at all. There are similar jacks/anchor jumps at 50-260 and 1280-some number I forget, but the music slows down here, so they're much easier than the patterns in Dimensions. Finally, there are similar 16th streamy bits at 260-350, as well as 450, 820, and again a longer stream near the end at 1600. The only thing this has that Dimensions doesn't have is grace notes, which get slightly harder to read at around 1080 with the jumps there, but there's no question that this is the easier song.

Let's do some more comparisons: Inside the fire [ffr chart] has that trill thing at 600 and those jumpgluts at the end, it's a 46, and I find those patterns far harder than anything here. Umlaut Ampersand is a 44, and is kind of similar with the anchor and the short streamy bits, though it's shorter. Doomsday is a 43 and has a similar nps diagram and broadly similar patterns.

I'd put this in a 43-44-45 range - maybe it could be bumped up a point because of length, because you could conceivably fall asleep during it, but certainly no higher. The only thing that I can see keeping it higher is the AAAs/times played statistics, but maybe that's just because it already has the "60" label attached to it, which is a turn-off. Finally, I have no 50+ sdg's (I think closest would be 11-1-2-7 on Song of the 2nd moon in TC_Halogen's Christmas tourney but I'm not sure) and I got 19-0-0-1 after a few goes on this.
