Nice.... I listened to the vocal version.
The vocaloid works extremely well in certain styles of music and THIS is one of them. The lack of English I think is what makes this work. I suspect they would also work well in Celtic music.
Nice pleasing song Hi Guitarhacker, Thank you for your comment. Yes, I think there is not a little commonality between Japanese and Celtic traditional music so I agree with you. Hiroshi

The orchestral version is beautiful, absolutely beautiful.
And then the vocaloid version WOW that too was beautiful but sounding so different. Thanks for linking both, both are excellent.

I liked both versions a lot! Very beautiful. Please submit all the vocals in Japanese you would like. They are beautiful. We have enough vocals in English to last us a million years. More French and Japanese German and Spanish please--every language for that matter.

Hi Hiroshi,
We like both versions, but the instrumental one appeals to us more, probably due to the strings.
The music is beautiful, very suitable for a poem.

Rob and Anne-Marie Hi Rob and Anne-Marie, Thank you for your comment. I am glad you like my songs. I am especially happy to know that you like strings ensemble. ******************************************* Because your comments somehow refer to comparison between two versions, I will explain some background now. Some time ago, I wanted to make a song with lyrics and vocal. I took my favorite poem to use as its lyrics and decided to use Vocaloid singer "Mew" as its vocalist. Mew is my favorite because her voice is very natural and attractive. To emphasize the vocal, I made its accompaniment as simple as possible. I think Mew's voice well suited Japanese traditional song style. I also made its instrumental version as a kind of independent song from the vocal version. To emphasize the melody line, I made it as a strings ensemble music. When I posted them, I did not expect Japanese vocal song well accepted by the forum members. Now I am encouraged to post more Japanese songs to the forum. I hope this is appropriate for the supplemental reply to your comments. Thank you again for your listening and feedback. Hiroshi

Hiroshi,
The instrumental is very well done. A nice listen.
I like the vocal version. The vocal is beautiful and sounds more organic (human, real) than any vocaloid I've ever heard. Nice.

floyd,
Thank you for your comment. I am glad to know you enjoyed both versions, especially you like the vocaloid version.
I used "Mew" as a vocaloid singer. I think her voice is very natural compared with others and also attractive to me though I have tested just a few of them. Probably many of them are made a little bit different from natural human voices intentionally, e.g. like animation characters, to emphasize their own personalities.

Hi Hiroshi,
Very very nice song and arrangement. I like the vocal version better than the orchestrated version. The Mew Vocaloid sounds amazingly real!

Hi Chris,
Thank you for your comment. I am glad you like my songs. The vocal version was just made for the poem "First Love", so its melody should best fit to the song , and I myself also like it very much.
I like Mew' voice so much as well. I am happy you like the vocal version better, then.
Hiroshi
