Back for my second listen--and I loved it even more. This one is growing one me.

It is very high energy, but I love the way you "contain" the energy like a coiled spring throughout and maintain the tension and suspense throughout. Truly a magnificent production.

The lyrics, by the way, are among the best I have ever seen for this genre.

You should be very proud of yourself. This is on my playlist.

Shigeki Adachi,



This song doesn't simply travel along as a journey in music, it soars! There is no doubt about it, you are a powerhouse composer and arranger. Trevor (Videotrack) used the word "marvelous" in describing this and your talent and I wholeheartedly agree.

Yoko Kawajiri's singing is stunning. I really like the way she presents those upwards resolving suspensions. It's been a while since I've noticed hearing such a melodic device in a song and it had a really captivating sound to my ears.

floyd mentioned female 60s vocalists when talking about Yoko Kawajiri's performance. I agree, too. There is definitely a very mainstream sound in Yoko's voice and, like floyd, it reminded me of Petula Clark. Is Yoko Kawajiri a well known singer in Japan? She sounds like she should be!

From start to finish, this was outstanding and enjoyable on every possible level.

All the best,
Noel

Hello, Noel

Thank you very much for taking the time to listen and comment.
I much appreciate your very very kind words.
And I am very glad you do like Yoko's singing.
She will also be very glad to read your comment to her vocal.
She is not a well known singer in Japan.
She is just my friend who loves singing very much living near my house.
I would like to post her vocal again.

Best regards.

Shigeki Adachi
