Time to begin...

"What the World is Wishing For": Very pleasant melody and instrumentation, although I'm usually not sold on vocals in game music. Perhaps overdoing it on the upbeat aspects, though (I prefer uplifting/inspiriting songs--yes, I see a difference).
Championship Tennis title screen: Charming, but somewhat bland to me. Probably a combination of short cycle and the choice of instruments for me...
"Burning Road" (what are you doing putting "Boss 6" in as well?!): This would be a prime example of what I mean by "inspiriting". Probably the most "heroic" of our choices today. (I'll let the other reviewers put forth more neutral reviews...)
"Thunder Storm": {sigh} I'd probably like this more if the instrumentation were better. Too electronic in the wrong ways?
"Fierce God": A more brooding kind of inspiriting, I'd call this. I can actually see it used as a stage theme for a vertical shmup (badlands/enemy base approach setting). Could use a more pronounced melody, though.
"Tokyo Conception": I really like the way the movements are set up in this. A steady progression from calm to grim...
"Dreams Come True Someday": I doubt I'd have been able to tell that this was game music, rather than standard classical, had I heard it on a radio--a good thing for RPG music. Wonderful ambience.
"A Bird Crossing the Desert": To be honest, I didn't like the calliope (?) in the first movement all that much. I did like the second movement, though, although it's still a bit slow-moving.

Final tally:

2 pts.:
"Burning Road"
"Tokyo Conception"
1 pt.:
"Fierce God"
"Dreams Come True Someday"
