I'm finally reviewing something. It's been a while!
This time ( ´ ▽ ` )ノ
I'm reviewing
Buono!'s mini-album called
partenza.
I'll be skipping the songs that were in their previous singles.
m(_ _)m
01
partenza ~Let's Go!!!~
A great song to start off this mini-album.
It sounds like a K-pop song LOL. I love how their voices were autotuned, it fitted the song nicely without overdoing it. Love the way they started off the song with announcing their group in a kinda slow motion-ish way. Then how they picked up the pace slightly. Oh and I love
Airi’s high parts nearing the end. I’ve never heard singing in such a way before. ♥ Although it’s a little repetitive but overall, this song is a nice song to listen to. A nice change from the usual rock-ish or ballad-ish
Buono!.
02
Zassou no Uta
One of their songs from their singles.
03
FrankincenseΨ (
Miyabi lead song)
Although it's a cover song by
SI☆NA. I've never heard the original version before LOL. *
SHOT* Despite it being a song cover, I think
Miyabi rocked out in this song. A side that you rarely see
Miya showing off. Another cool change. ♪
04
My alright sky (
Airi lead song)
After a little rock, this song has a nice cooling effect - which balanced the mini-album even more. It has been a while since I’ve heard
Airi singing a slow song, which is awesome. This song brings out that mature voice in
Airi which I absolutely love! This song was also composed really nicely. I would really like to hear
Airi Buono! singing this live. I really don’t know what else to say about this song cause it has left the most of me... speechless LOL. Although, I wished she put more
emotions into this song.
Oh and, I wonder who’s that lady who’s doing the English lines. They should credit her or something. XD Ahem. ( ̄ω ̄;)
05
Natsu Dakara
Another song from their single.
Natsu Dakara is a nice transition between the previous song and the song after this.
06
Kia Ora ・ Gracias ・ Arigatou (
Momoko lead song)
Lately, I’ve been hearing
Momo’s higher pitch voice. This... it’s not entirely TOO high or too low (like in her live performances). Btw, I think this is the kind of songs were meant for her! ♥ I love the short guitar solo at the instrumental break before
Momo comes in again. I have one complain though, why is this song so short?! ( ̄へ ̄)
07
JUICY HE@RT
The
third song from their singles.
The album has really picked up the pace again. ☆
08
1/3 no Junjou na Kanjou
And the last song. A nice way too cool off the entire album. If you didn’t know, this was originally sung by
SIAM SHADE. An amazing song sung by its original singer. (Those who are a fan of
SIAM SHADE or
Rurouni Kenshin should immediately recognize this song! ( ̄▽ ̄)ノ)
I think
Buono! did an
okay job of covering it. Honestly, I wished they put more
emotions into it. Though, I like this version too. XD Cause it’s
Buono!. How can you hate them? LOL.
I still prefer the original version over this ANY DAY, ANY TIME. *
RUNS* XD!!
Overall, I think this mini-album is just simply amazing. It is short of nothing except a little more
emotions into their singing.
Tsunku should hire a new vocal trainer to push them even more. *
SHOTSHOT*
I would love to buy this mini-album if I had the money. I think I might though – in the future. LOL. I would love to listen to it when I’m in the car. (●⌒∇⌒●)ノ
But those who do HAVE the money and is interested in purchasing this awesome mini-album, please do so!
