Thanks for sharing this, it really is a beautiful song.

You must be very proud of your efforts. This is one of the best vocaloids I've listened to.

I agree though that your own voice is excellent, (no need for vocaloid!)

Hello, Guenter and Trevor

Thank you for your kind messages every time.
I was very encouraged by your comments.
And thank you very much for your listening the original version.
As no computer and no Band-in-a-Box in those days, there was no way other than I had to record all by myself to the tape-recorder.
Really I think it is a good era now.

Best regards

Very sweet song. I liked doing the comparison between the original version and the Miku. Weird studying music while in the department of economics. laugh

I agree with everything Guenter said! Very impressive in every way! I especially like your original arrangement.. the chords and melody are very nice!

It was interesting to hear the Miku Hatsune vocaloid in a jazz song, since everything I've heard from that vocaloid so far has been electronica... but you've demonstarted that it works just as well in other musical genres!

Thanks for posting! I hope we hear more from you in the future!

Hello, Joanne

Thank you for your kind messages.
And thank you very much for your listening the original version.
I enrolled in the department of economics, but also I wanted to study music, so I had been through the Yamaha Music School at night. (Of course my parents did not know that.) Old stories.

Both arrangements are very good but I prefer human to vocaloid - can't help it just not a vocaloid fan. You did a great job with it. Your songs are always so pretty.

Hello, floyd, Rob and Anne-Marie, Josie and Janice & Bud

Thank you for your very kind messages.
And thank you very much for your listening both versions.
I also like human vocal better than vocaloid, but I have to give my attention to the recent trend to vocaloid in Japan.
Thank you again to all and I will post my music again.

Best regards.

Hi Shigeki Adachi,

This melody and its arrangement are absolutely outstanding... really, really nice music. Everything about this suits the vocaloid so very well. I also like the key the vocaloid sings in. That being said, I liked the other version too.

The EastWest choirs have a beautiful timbre.

You're a very talented musician.

Regards,
Noel
