Trying once more...
Jun. 5th, 2007 02:43 pmAs previously stated, my Happy Boys CD got here the other day ♥♥♥ (Apparently delivered by a ninja. My sister and I heard a noise, went to the door, and discovered a box on the porch, with no person or truck anywhere in sight.)
The cover picture is really nice, and on the lyrics page there's a "data file" and a few small pictures from the recording studio, I'll have to scan them :D And it comes with a card (about the size of a playing card), with a cute in-character picture. And the CD itself is really pretty, it's pink and shiny with a silver design. ♥
It turned out there's actually only one song, but two versions of it -- the regular, and the "Unplugged version," which for some reason is only half as long.
....If I wasn't already completely crazy about this boy, this CD would have done it.
I've said it before, but Setomaru can SING. Really, really well. And I love his voice. ♥ The normal version of "Yasashisa" is just.....wonderful. Completely wonderful. I can't even say anything else about it. ♥
But. I like the "Unplugged version" better. It's only a couple verses long, but....aksdfjaskjdaksjd;akj gaaaaah trying to describe how much I like it would be embarrassing. It really has a completely different sound from the other version -- "Unplugged" really fits. It's got kind of an...open-mic-night sound to it. And he sounds so much older in it, so...mature, for lack of a better word. His voice gets really deep, and...I just really, really like it. A lot.
His talk track is really cute, of course. ♥ He thanks everyone for listening, talks about his character and how the recording was (he was nervous ♥), answers some questions about himself....and says "Bye-bye!" at the end, which is just adorable. ♥
As much as I was looking forward to the BAS album before...I really just can't wait now. I really, really want to hear more from him. Also, I hope TakiYuki sounds better when he's not running around a stage, else he's going to seriously get shown up. Heck, that might happen anyway :D I like TakiYuki's singing, but there's no comparison. Setomaru's voice is so...unique, I guess, and strong. Of course, he'll probably be singing a little differently as Eiji, but still.
*sigh~* I love this CD so much. ♥
Oh, right, lyrics. I've started translating bits and pieces, but as usual, there are things I can't figure out....but, I really like what I've been able to figure out of them. ♥ Both the Japanese and the romaji can be found under the cut~
( '君のそばにいたいだけさ' )
To me, it sounds like a love song. ...Not an especially happy love song, but still. This is amusing to me, though, since Kyouichi doesn't have a girl at all in the series, unless one shows up at the very end or something. Maybe the song is about a "potential" girl? One he hopes to have? I dunno. It's a nice song, though, and is basically all about how nice Kyouichi is. He's such an awesome character, really. ♥ And it makes me all kinds of happy that on the talk track Setomaru was once again saying how similiar they are :D
So, the preview function is finally working, so I think it'll let me post this one~ And of course, not being able to post long entries has just made me think of lots of things to post long entries about, so...I'll probably be spamming a bit over the next couple days, I apologize in advance ♥
