I know some of you (maybe) waiting for my scans, really sorry for very late uploading. Since my mouse just broken last week, and I'm just changed it some day after I got the CD. And also, I got a sore throat, which made me couldn't go to internet cafe and uploading it... Sorry >___<

It's ok. no worries about that. It's nice & kind that you uploaded them for us.
thanks

Ugh I'm such a bad fan. I still haven't gotten around to listening to the album. But I will listen to it today, I'm hoping it's gonna be good.

For some reason, I'm waiting for your opinion about this album actually, haha.
Take your time! I know so many release are coming this month, but please be sure to enjoy this album as well~

ありえない!! = I like it a lot! I really like the fast instrumentation! Her vocals are...ehh...not horrible but not up there
don't cry anymore = Her magnum opus. She will never make a song better than this (not trying to sound harsh lol!). The lyrics, the music, her voice. Everything is perfection. And maybe I have a huge bias for this song because the lyrics changed my life <3
friend ～君が笑えば～ = The piano is so damn pretty zomg!! <3 Like this song too :)
春になったら = I like the sound of this song!
hys- = I don't really remember how this song goes...
Dear days = A little too long for it's own good lol

And that's where I stopped...I'll listen to the rest of the album later.

Haha aww thanks!

Also, listening to 醒めない夢 right now, beautiful.

chAngE = Still love it
めぐろ川 <strings version> = Ehh it's okay
The next three tracks after めぐろ川 <strings version> are forgettable...minus Little Girl, I like that song.

The last song was a wonderful closer. It's beautiful.

Overall, pretty nice album!

I'm too busy to translate it fully, but here's the gist of it:

Quote:

The title ‘guitarissimo’ is a play on ‘pianissimo’ (=a soft, small sound) because she’s small and plays the guitar. Also, ‘issimo’ means ‘very much’ in Italian and she feels it strengthens the word ‘guitar’.

The album has a ‘spring feeling’ to it in her opinion: a time of new beginnings, which might also be scary, but she hopes her songs encourage those who listen to it.

She wanted to make an energetic song like ‘arienai!!’ because she’ll go on tour soon (and songs like that can get the audience pumped up).

The title ‘hys-‘ is short for ‘hysteric’.

Some of her lyrics refer back to her high school days. She wanted to write those songs because as she grows older she might no longer be able to write about such things.

She wrote ‘tsuyoku naritai’ before her debut. Back then she wasn’t sure if she was ever gonna debut and felt troubled. She thinks she might no longer be able to write a song in which she sings ‘I want to be stronger’ in such an honest way. It was a song she could only have written back then.

She wrote ‘Dear Days’ recently. In the lyrics she sings about the city slowly changing. One of the stores where she used to get her guitar fixed also disappeared.

She's a bit afraid of change, she doesn’t want to be stereotyped. The things she writes about might change as she grows older, but she hopes her ‘core’ will stay the same.

She loves performing with a band/with other people.

She’s more a musician than an artist. As a child she would always check which musicians were credited in the CD booklet. For example, she’d check who played what instrument and would remember the names. She loved performing with so many different people and hopes she’ll meet lots more people this year. And she also wants to continue to improve her skills as a musician.
