Clannad, Blaze, Savia

Published by §oL under Anime, Clannad, KOTOKO, Music

Alright, I did mentioned I was only watching two series in my previous post, but that was just a ruse to hide my mainstreamity with Clannad. Today was an off day for me, so I was too quite free. Managed to catch the final episode of Clannad, episode 22.

I liked how the series has ended. It wasn’t very romance oriented, rather, the theme was more on family. I got rather shocked when Tomoya confessed to Nagisa in the end though. He didn’t seem like that kind of a person!

On a side note, I managed to get my copy of KOTOKO’s Blaze today! Blaze sounded good to me, just a bit mellow for my taste. Sociometry was kinda a love hate song. I thought it sounded a bit too disco-like(can’t find a better word), but I did like the tune of it.

On another side note, Mami Kawada’s Savia is gonna be released tomorrow, but it won’t be till 2nd April( or later) before I receive it, because I ordered it with Eiko’s Hikari Nadeshiko. Yeah, I’m scrimping on shipping, and I’m pretty broke already! No matter, I’ll download preview Savia first thing tomorrow!

Crap, I forgot. There’s work tomorrow.

Happy Birthday KOTOKO!

Published by §oL under I'VE, KOTOKO, Music

Today KOTOKO’s birthday! I never knew how old she was, nor do I care. She’s got a great voice, she’s hot, and that’s what I like about her. Here’s wishing her a belated birthday, and all the best for her future works!

And here’s spamming her pictures.

My ten favourite KOTOKO’s songs

Published by §oL under I'VE, KOTOKO, Music

KOTOKO is my favourite artist, if you haven’t already known. I’ve listened to so many of her songs during the freaking bus rides until I made a list of my favourites. But considering the fact that I’ve only been addicted to KOTOKO since 2006, there might be tonnes of other great songs I’ve not discovered. List is expected to change over time.

  1. Suppuration -core-
  2. Re-sublimity
  3. UZU-MAKI
  4. Shichitenhakki Shijou Shugi
  5. Real Onigokko
  6. agony
  7. Face of Fact (album ver)
  8.  being
  9. Iruka
  10. Nee.. Shiyoyo!

I like her energetic songs much more than the slow ones. Denpa is ok, but too much of it gives me a terrible moe-induced headache. I looped Short-Ciruit II for 2 hours. The result was disasterous.

Oh and I realised, all the songs from her Re-sublimity single is up there. I hereby proclaim it her best single ever. Wahaha. And I bet everyone agrees with me on this!

KAORI - Tears Infection

Published by §oL under Music, Myself;Yourself

I wasn’t a big fan of this song. The reason was because I watched Myself;Yourself on cruchyroll, and the music quality is obviously subpar. Besides, I have a habit of skipping OPs. I happened to chance upon this song again while browsing Rokku’s blog, in his music box. And it suddenly hit me, the same feeling I had when listening to KOTOKO’s songs. It was love at first sight. Ok, thats getting too cheesy.

My first with Hatsune Miku

Published by §oL under Hatsune Miku, Music, Vocaloid2

And I failed terribly. After an hour of trial and error, I managed to get her to sing a super-low budget version of my favourite song.

No points for guessing the title of the song.

Shichitenhakki☆Shijou Shugi! PV review!

Published by §oL under KOTOKO, Music

Apparently reviewing this single is what all the cool kids are doing these days(LOL), so I’m going to do a review on this new single by my favourite singer yet. The song’s awesome, but the PV is the one that really makes my day. So, I’m gonna go in-depth on the PV’s storyline-O WAIT!- its has a storyline? Read on…

The General Classification of Music Listeners by Actions and Preferences through Natural Observations

Published by §oL under Music

I’m very sure everyone has listened to music before. Some buy CDs, some download from the internet, some listen to the radio. There is also a slight majority of people who does not actively listen to music. So what differentiate a group from the others?

Through my observations of people in my daily life(mostly on the train), I have come to devise a ranking of music addiction, based on the subject’s actions and preferences, which is the theory of The General Classification of Music Listeners by Actions and Preferences through Natural Observations, or TGCMLAPTNO for short.

That one song

Published by §oL under Minorin, Music, Suzumiya Haruhi

I’m sure anybody who listens to music has some songs they really like. For me, my favorite songs keeps changing as newer, nicer songs come out. Recent ones are Naraku no Hana, Beautiful World, My Heart Draws A Dream, Gravity and Hitotoshite Jiku ga Bureteiru. But there’s always a special song, one that doesn’t bore you out, that one single track that amazes you everytime you listen to it. For me, its…
