Reviewing a couple songs on the ranking today~ ^^
Starting with the 24-hours list (at least, I think that’s what first tab is).
(You need a Niconico Douga account to view these. To see how to get one, please follow the steps here.)
The second one on the list was actually the one that caught my eye first. It looked like something for “The Disappearance of Hatsune Miku”, so I clicked on it out of curiousity. It’s wonderful. *A*
It looks like a PV to me, but in my opinion, there wasn’t enough Hatsune Miku. :’D Most of the video is the lyrics showing up and special effects. While both are done beautifully, I wished there’d be more Miku, since it is her song, after all. The singer in the video isn’t Miku either, but I loved her voice. I thought she was Luka at first, lol. And uhm yeah I dunno what the heck is up with that submessage either. :’D
The first song on the list (but second song I listened to) was a version of Cantarella, featuring Luka & Gakupo. While the voices were also Nico singers, I loved them anyways. I dunno, they just fit so well. >w< And the video itself, I lovedddd the art. It's just so pretty. While I think it's more of a pictures-and-many-special-effects PV also, I loved the effects. They were so fun to look at. >w<
Third song on the 24-hours list, is called “No Logic”. I have no idea why it’s even on the watcher, ’cause I don’t hear any Vocaloid in it. But I guess it’s on a CD where Vocaloids are featured, so… okay? And plus, after listening to it… I love it. I dunno, I just do. xD The vocals are nice, the instrumentals are catchy. =D Totally going on my iPod.
Starting on the other tab now (no idea what it says, I have fail Japanese skills), first up is a Luka song that I find adorable.
From what I gather from the video, it’s about a princess who wants to go outside of her tower after seeing a boy playing around. She wants to play with him, but her caretaker or whatever says no… so she sneaks out. Then has to gather up her courage to ask if she can play with him. And he says yes, and happily ever after etc etc. XD
I liked the song, while it’s tagged as Vocarock, it wasn’t guitar & drums blaring out and making me deaf. :’D Hooraayy~ So I liked the instrumentals, especially the piano. The tune itself I found catchy too, without taking away from the hint of cuteness there. While the art isn’t the best, I’m satisfied with it. I’d rather have simple art depicting the story than lovely art with only a few pictures.
The next song is by Gakupo, and the first thing I thought when I heard it– “Asian sounding again.” Idk, I hear alot of Gakupo songs like that. Maybe it’s cause he’s a samurai? oAo Moving on, I like the art. It’s pretty too. ^^ And the video implies GakupoxLuka. Woot. :’D Personally, the song was to slow and serious for me. I’m more of a jumpy-happy type person. XD But overall, it was quite soothing. ^^b
Third song on the second list (and the 8th song on the 24-hours list), is a song I clicked on just ’cause it had the word “RMX” on it. :’D I like remixes, what can I say? xD And either this song just repeats twice, or it really is like 7 minutes. o__O
Okay first, the effects are soo hypnotizing. Really. *staaaareesss* And the song, while the normal parts aren’t so memorable, I love the chorus. I don’t know how to describe it, but I likeee ittt. >w< And this is coming from a person who usually dosen't like Meiko's normal voice, btw. :'D I'm more found of her cutesy Sakine voice. XD
So that’s it for today, I’ll review again later when I see some different songs on the ranking. ^^
Most liked/memorable song for this post: Luka’s “孤独のおとぎ姫”
