Shigeki..I really enjoyed this, listening to both versions. They are different in their approach and should not be judged against each other! I always learn something from listening to your tracks, the composition and the arrangements. I especially liked the phrasing where you used the chromatic descending pattern of IIIb7b5—>IV7b9 (I think that’s what I heard)...and I like the resolution to (I think) IIIMaj7. Thank you for sharing both versions so we can get a sense of you were thinking for each approach!

Shigeki,

Enjoyed both versions, the Vocaloid sounded good (one of the best I've heard), and the arrangement was excellent.

Like others I preferred the live version but both sounded very professional.

Excellent work and playing all round.

Shigeki,
Nice pop song.
Live version wins hands down, but... great use of BIAB to create a very articulated draft.
Thank you for sharing.

Greg,

Thank you very much for taking the time to listen and comment.
I am really glad you like this tune.
Vocaloid has also been updated to Version 5 now, giving vocals more human vocalist touches.
What's more, we can get great results by only choosing a vocal feel from the presets without having to make any adjustments ourselves.
I am always very encouraged by your kind words.

Best regards.

Robert,

And many thanks for listening to the both versions.
I am really glad you like this tune and my strings.
All Yamaha teachers are active as front-line professional performers.
Of course, they can play the score for the first time.
So as long as the score is perfectly written, they can play immediately.
Therefore, a professional arranger guide our group, and our musical scores are corrected thoroughly from a month before the recording.
I am always very encouraged by your kind words.

Best regards.

Tom,

Thank you very much for taking the time to listen and comment.
And many thanks for listening to the both versions.
I am really glad you like this tune and my chord progression.
My chord progressions are deeply influenced by Michel Legrand and Tom Jobim.
Also, the progression that resolves to IIImaj7 is an influence from "Un homme et une femme (The man and the woman)" of Francis Lai.
I am always very encouraged by your kind words.

Best regards.

Enjoyable and melodic.

I really like the driving percussion that completely enhances the production.

Vocals work surprisingly well.

Very well done.

Hi animarorecords,

Very pleasant composition. The sounds are light and your voice lends itself wonderfully. The arrangement gives a voluptuousness to the sounds and the mixing is well done. Well done.

Wow the production sparkles from the very first note! Love the strings and the guitar in the right speaker. Lovely melody and chord choices.

Well done!
