I think it would have been better if there was more variety in enemies. They seem to exist only to slow you down rather than present a persistent threat.
The names of the songs used in the games can be found by clicking the "music" button on the main menu.
For those who don't want to look:
1. Gorillaz - Tomorrow Comes Today
2. Beck - Cellphone's Dead
3. Death Cab For Cutie - Brothers on a Hotel Bed
4. Gorillaz - El Manana
5. Spoon - I Turn My Camera On
I second lethargic8's strategy, though I might suggest a revision: It might be helpful to alternate between preserving blues and preserving yellows, as it can take quite a lot of effort to charge the yellow special.
