first impressions
song no1, eternal return: i dont like that song alot. sounds a bit too hectic. trying to transfer a certain kind of musical feeling. a bit too much at once thrown into it.
song no2, himitsu: defenitly in the top 10 of my all-time favorite maaya songs. grade 1+? grade 1+?
song no3, down town: feels like a song between 2 other songs. feels like "the break time song".
song no4, beautiful person: this song is a bit complicated. the lyrics a nice. it sounds really traditional, makin the song a bit more unique. it was some kind of promotional song for a sailing festival, thus i think of this song more like a product. still a good song.
5, my fault??? umm your fault: well, thx for reminding me... luckily not maayas lyrics so i dont feel THAT bad lol. ive gotten a bit extreme, when she did not write the lyrics, since some time.
the risk is really high that i abandon those songs. but okay she could also feel into the lyrics and interpret them in her own way, i kno. the song is in the upper region of "okay" xD
6, 0&1: kinda middle-rate song. the lyrics of a stranger again boooooooooooo! i mob them. lullaby song?
7, lake: a maaya song again <3!!! lake <.< maaya at a lake <.< in a bathingsuit muahahahaha
if you want me to put suncream on you............ NP <.<
8, stand up, girls!: the girl power song!!! spice up your life! ._. yea she also got some female fans, but when i watch the budokan blu-ray & see all the male otakus lol.
i know the doo wah diddy part. stand up, girls got some flavor of that time. was it the 60´s? that kind of music sounds neat with maaya.
9, future map: stranger again >< but tell me your future map, maaya. i hope that its in the center of europe <.< somewhere between poland and france xD [edit: well.... there goes my proposal. i just read in that other yccm thread that she does not want to do this things lol
]
10, moonlight: oh! so THIS was the lullaby song. to think that 1 day she could possibly sing her children to sleep with this song and those children will not look like gradualpetrify LMAO. <.<
11, letter: yea like the "letters" i wrote here. they became fewer.
this song is short but interesting. i wanna know more. i can feel a bit of hope.
12, topia: it sounds like shes feeling really comfortable singin it. ummm whats topia? a mexican city lol?
i just know utopia as a word with meaning.
this was just my first dive through the album. my favorite song with that experience is himitsu.
i also dont know yet where to position the whole album. but it will not be the no1 album of all time.
kinda hard to achieve that.
i am disappointed with the bonus-cd. yesterday i was watching the budokan blu-ray & now i get the exact same stuff here. the only reason i could understand this was made is to be able to put the live songs on mp3 for example. dont kno if you can do that with the blu-ray. never tried.
bla bla bla bla cya
