Well, I FINALLY took the time to listen to CIRCLE CYCLE (almost three months after downloading it, lol).
It's really good! I'm happy to hear that Kou can also do upbeat tracks, although her bittersweet midtempo songs are still my favourites (
Soshite Boku wa Tohou ni Kureru has been my obsession this whole season, and now I feel like
wish will be getting similar attention in the future). Anyway, the album is really enjoyable all the way through, I don't think I disliked any of the tracks! Favourite songs:
wish,
Parallel World Reading,
EUPHORIA,
Philosophia.
So thank you for the recommendation, Yoake.

I think I'll try her other original albums next!
