Album track commentary:
Prologue -Earth Rise-: I've been waiting for this track. XD It's basically the track used at LIVE EARTH before and after she performed Heavenly Star / Breeze, I believe. Love it!
Intermediate -Orbit Swimming: Sparkly. It seems to mix a bunch of vocals from the new album tracks.
I will: Mmm! Funky sort of
Daft Punk-lite sound! I love this sort of thing. Lyrics are some of the strangest in terms of grammar from the team behind Genki Rockets, but eh. They're Japanese people writing English lyrics. I'm sad that the girl from the USA who is Lumi doesn't proofread. XD
Star Surfer: OMG. The waves in the beginning are so soothing. Introduction instrumentals are sort of peppy and an electro/acoustic mix. This song is kinda like Heavenly Star's slightly less pretty twin. I used to think the verses didn't fit the chorus, but the chorus is just more energized as opposed to the more laidback verses. D: The bridge in this is so trancy. LOL.
Never Ever: OMG SAD. :[ I didn't really expect them to have a ballad like this sort of thing... piano and synth strings only. Wah! Makes me want to cry. Definitely my favorite track on this album. English -> Japanese is too Angela Aki's "Kiss from a Rose" for me. D: I LIKED IT IN ENGLISH. Oh well, BEAUTIFUL ANYWAAAY. LOVE ITTTT. THE STRINGS ARE SO GORGEOUS <3333
Fly!: Oh no, it's starting out really American. WOAH WHY IS HER VOICE SO WEIRD. "I'M FEELING FRESH IN THE CLEAR BLUE SOMETHING." Seriously, what the heck happened to her voice? It got really nasally. Okay song, but definitely not as good as some of the other tracks.
Star Line (Japanese Version), Breeze (Remixes): It's so strange hearing it in Japanese. I like it though. Seems like it was written in Japanese first and then switched to English.. D: Remixes are as hot as you'd expect them to be. Breeze is just so amazing that it doesn't matter who remixes it.
Woah wtf, LATIN SUMMER AFTERNOON? XD
