Agreed, it'll really clash, but luckily it's at the end.

^ It's always been the same case with any other classical/acoustic re-arrangement. MY STORY Classical also suffers from this as well.

^ yea you're right. I really loved it when it came out, but now I find it hard to listen to it now, or any of her acoustic orchestra mixes in general. They just sound so.......lazy.

Electronic (or trance, house) remixes I can get behind because it's more about the beats and the vocals are usually given some sort of distorted treatment anyway.

^This is what they're going to do but why make a different mix when you an just use the already relesed one?


I'm not going to listen to any other ongs than Winter Diary before it actually gets out. I want to have something to look foward to ~~~

I know, that's most easy way. But "Original mix" in title makes me think that on next release mixing will be different...

If they do decide to include it it will most likely be a Bonus track. Still keep in mind that even though You & Me was on A SUMMER best, the very same version was on LOVE again. So it might not mean a thing.

Wow last minute really sleighed me!
It's so interesting that good mixing can really improve a song. Oh and a good arrangement, which the song has. Now praying for sorrows to be saved, it needs it most.

The rearrangements are really good. Step by step is actually tolerable as a song with this new arrangement.

I really, REALLY wish she had just re-recorded the vocals though. It really throws me off listening to Last minute, because while the arrangement is epic, it's so obvious that the vocal track was from a totally different recording so it sounds disjoined and I can't un-hear it. This was such a wasted opportunity.

Might actually buy this release if they suddenly decide to delete Winter diary from the tracklist.

main reason why I don't like her classical albums. I keep trying every now and then; but there just isn't any cohesion...

I wasn't really impressed to be honest lol but the song definitely sounds better without the loud backing vocals.

imo it's very likely that Winter diary will be in the next album, and tbh I don't mind it, I like the song.
