♥ Happy Day ♥

I've finally remembered that I have an old mic, I used it about 3 years ago~
It's a headphone + mic. ^o^;;
Well, it's not in perfect condition.
Why? Cause the music on the right-side of the headphone can't be heard.

Oh well!
At least, I have the left-side. xDD
AND the mic quality is SUPERB!!!

Now~
I can record more songs without kissing my screen! :D
**I have a build-in mic**
^___^

++++++++++++++++++

With this new power mic....
I recorded Hare Hare Yukai & White Destiny at one shot!
I was so happy that in White Destiny, I sounded happy & not sad-ish like. xDD
White Destiny is a meaningful & sad song. X_X
ANDANDAND I hit my high-pitch part wonderfully!!!!!!!!!!

I'M SOOOOOOOOO HAPPY!!!!!!!
I might released a whole bunch of dubs tomorrow. xDD

Review: Rainism / Rain

This is MY review on Rain's 5th album, Rainism (Special Asian Edition).

Track 01 - My Way (Intro)
Nothing to say here, it's just an intro. xD

Track 02 - Rainism
Ah. So H.O.T. BEST SONG OF RAIN (Besides "I'm Coming"), Hands Down!!! xD
"I'm gonna be bad boy, I gotta be a bad bad boy." I love the MV of it too~! Everything is just perfect!!!
RATING: 5/5

Track 03 - Only You
Typical sad-love song. Not as good as Love Story. The beat is beautiful.
RAING: 4.5/5

Track 04 - Love Story
This is a very sad song. I love it, every word, every tune. It's sucha wonderful love song. Made me cry.
RATING: 5/5

Track 05 - Love Is
Honestly, this song is quite nice but gets boring after a while. But, it's Rain! xDD
RATING: 3/5

Track 06 - My Girl
I love his voice. I love this song. I love the speech part. This is a beautiful song, very calming-like. Quite meaningful.
RATING: 4/5

Track 07 - You
This song is almost the same standard as Rainism!! VERY VERY VERY catchy beat & lyrics. "You make me crazy, you make me sexy", that line makes me go crazy. And the girl that sung at the end is VERY good!!
RATING: 5/5

Track 08 - Fresh Woman
The title is quite disturbing but the beat is quite catchy. Although, it gets tiring listening to it millions of times. xDD I don't really understand this song, honestly.
RATING: 3/5

Track 09 - Better Girl (feat. Tae Wan AKA C-luv)
Another great beat song. I wish I understand what he was saying at the beginning. Hrm, I'm quite dissapointed in this song cause it sounds almost like Fresh Woman~
RATING: 3.5/5

Track 10 - Turn Your Head
This is something you would hear it in a club, I love it! Though, I wish the beat was much more better~ :(
RATING: 1/5

Track 11 - September 12th
Even though I don't understand the lyrics but I think, this is a sad-love song. I like how he started with a quiet & sweet melody. It proves that it's a meaningful song.
RATING: 3/5

Track 12 - My Way
This was the intro. Nothing outstanding about this song. It blends in with the others.
RATING: 2/5

Track 13 - Rainism REMIX
No comment. Sounds exactly the same. I gave it a 3/5 cause I was dissapointed that it's not exactly "remix".
RATING: 3/5

Track 14 - Rainism (Chinese vers.)
I'm not Chinese educated but I can tell that I still can hear that Korean accent there. It's pretty obvious. Though, applaude that he can sing in Chinese. :D Sounds hot in Chinese, though.
RATING: 4.5/5

Track 15 - Love Story (Chinese vers.)
Still can hear that Korean accent, it's so thick. Lol. Though, I don't really enjoy it in Chinese~
RATING: 3/5

Track 16 - Rainism (English vers.)
His English has improved vastly. I feel like dubbing it but I don't wanna kill the song. xDD IMO, sounds better than the original version. Lol~
RATING: 5/5

Track 17 - Love Story (English vers)
Sounds really good. Though the "This song is a story of a true love tragedy" sounded more like "This is a oiashfosbfosdifbso tragedy." No offence. x_x
RATING: 4.5/5

♫ OVERALL ♫
Rainism, Love story & You are the BEST songs. Though, I'm slightly dissapointed & glad with this album. I'm glad that he has improved his lyrics, beats & dances BUT I'm dissapointed that it's ALL the same beat & tune. There are not much variety.

Review: Akogare MY STAR / °C-ute

This is MY review of Akogare MY STAR (憧れ MY STAR), °C-ute's new (4th) album.

Track 01 - Akogare MY STAR (憧れ My STAR)
This is a new beat for °C-ute. I really love the new concept of it. It has a catchy beat that will always repeat in your mind, over & over. Although, °C-ute has to work on their English pronouciation. Some of their pronouciation of "Darling" were a little weird but still, it's so cute. xD What more is that everyone got equal lines! Yay~
RATING: 5/5

Track 02 - One's Life
(Sung by Umeda Erika/梅田えりか, Okai Chisato/岡井千聖, Hagiwara Mai/萩原舞)
Frankly, boring. I'm not fond of this song. It has the same tune. None of them stood out. Just like a piece of blank paper.
RATING: 1/5

Track 03 - Yes! All my family
(Sung by Suzuki Airi/鈴木愛理)
Another Airi solo. I love it! Though, I wish there were parts where her voice would go high-pitch. I love her high-pitches! Though, I think I would get tired listening to this song sooner or later.
RATING: 3.5/5

Track 04 - Namida no Iro (涙の色) / Colour of Tears
This was °C-ute's 5th single. I feel in-love with the song from the first time I've heard it. This song simply shows the mature side of °C-ute. The lyrics were very full of meaningful.
RATING: 4/5

Track 05 - Aishiteru Aishiteru (愛してる 愛してる) / I love you, I love you
(Sung by Nakajima Saki/中島早貴 & Arihara Kanna/有原栞菜)
At first, I didn't really like the song. However, after listening to it a few times... I love it!! ♥ I like the way they sing it. It's very calming & wonderful to listen to it when you're in love. This song made me smile.
RATING: 4.5/5

Track 06 - Seishun Song (青春ソング) / Youthful Song (I'm not sure of the translation)
(Sung by Yajima Maimi / 矢島舞美)
This song is very up-beat! AND I love it!!! Makes you wanna dance & sing! I think it's really perfect for Maimi's solo. Fell in love with the song when I first heard the preview~ I think Maimi's voice has gotten better, she has the most matured voice among the other °C-ute members. This song fits her voice prefectly.
RATING: 4/5

Track 07 - Big Dreams
Makes you wanna go after your dreams. I think it's quite a touching song. Very good to be listened. Though, I think it will fit Shugo Chara very well. Ahahaha~ Can't wait for the official lyrics to be released!
RATINGS: 3/5

Track 08 - SHINES
Sounds like a funky & fun Hawaiian song. xDD I just simply LOVE IT!! The way they started the song with was really good. Something different for once~! Sounds a little like "Koero! Rakuten Eagles/越えろ！楽天イーグルス", though.
RATING: 2.5/5

Track 09 - Yakusoku wa Toku ni Shinai wa (約束は特にしないわ)
Calming song. This type of song should be listened when it's raining, it gives of that kinda feeling. (LOL!) Honestly, I don't know what I should say bout this song.
RATING: 1/5

Track 10 - FOREVER LOVE
This is °C-ute's 7th single. Frankly, I'm quite dissapointed with the lines given to everyone. Mostly is Airi & Maimi singing, the others are like back-up singers. I don't like it, they're suppose to be a GROUP - working together, having equal lines!! Anyways, this is one of their best singles. Quite meaningful.
RATINGS: 3.5/5

Track 11 - Edo no Temari Uta II (江戸の手毬唄Ⅱ) / Edo Handball Song II
This is is °C-ute's 6th single. At first, I hated this song but now I don't. This is a new sound to °C-ute! The song is about anything that is related about the old Tokyo. Even if it's a short song but it's really deep. I don't really understand the lyrics. xDD
RATINGS: 4/5

♫ OVERALL ♫
I LOVE THE WHOLE ALBUM!! It's the best to far~!! ^______^

UPDATES

I've just watched Shugo Chara!! DOKI episode 69 finished.
They (FINALLY) changed the ending song! :D
As predicted, it's co-no-mi-chi by Buono!
^o^

Although, the ending song is focused on Amu's younger sister, Ami & Amu's Shugo Charas. =]
I don't really like the concept of it but I'll deal with it. x3



*********************

I've finally posted a new dub of mine.
I dubbed Akogare MY STAR (憧れ MY STAR) without music & NOT the full song.
It's just an audition video, it will be taken down after I know my results.
I'm auditioning for Kawaii Love from Hello! Project International.
Kawaii Love dubs C-ute songs.
Initially, I wanted to join Sugoi Koubou (covers Berryz Koubou) but I realised that I don't know how to sing their FAST paced songs~ It's really fast, I get tongue-tied.
^o^;;

I messed up this verse!!
"Happyou shicchatta tte wakannai zettai Kitzuichakunai
Minna ni sengen shichaitai
Jyunjyou SUTANBAI yatte tatte bijin ni wa Nannai
Yowamushi yo BYE BYE"

I've just learn this song so please excuse me~!!
Personally, I think I've improved a little~

OH YEAH!
If you hear weird noises at the back, it's not my fault...
I live near the Chinese temple & it's gonna be Chap Goh Mei this (coming) Monday.
Chap Goh Mei is the last day for Chinese New Year & the time to throw oranges into the sea, Chinese called it the Chinese Valentine's Day. xDD;;

My mic has problems.
No matter HOW loud or HOW near I sing into the mic, it's still so darn SOFT!!
I really, really should get an external mic~ :(
(I have a build-in mic x_X)

What's worse is that my Hare Hare Yukai & White Destiny lines are due tomorrow!!
I'm so damn dead!!!
I don't wanna get strike. :(
If I do, I only get limited 2 songs for the next batch of songs. TToTT

I hope my mic will be good to me tomorrow~ ^o^
I'm trying to be optimistic as possible!
Ganbarre, nee??
