After listening to Kalafina live during AFA, I just couldn't get them out of my mind. I wasn't sure what I would be posting about Kalafina actually, I just knew I had to get it out of my system to blog about them before I go crazy everywhere raving about them.
Not exactly a 'new' fan of them as I've been listening to their songs since their debut 'Oblivious'. Though somewhere along the line I stopped and well, the live helped a lot and now I'm listening to their songs everyday.
Friends, online and IRL would know that I've been making them listen to them (as in non stop raving everywhere haha). What's even more awesome is that, I have friends that go around raving about Kalafina with me! So much of it that Missy checked them out to see what's the hype about. You can read about it at her music blog Cadenza Source (clickable link)
If you really don't know who they are, there's always Google, and I shall be kind enough to link you to Wikipedia (just click ;D) as well. In short, a godly composer - Yuki Kajiura formed this amazing band in 2007 to perform Kara No Kyoukai's songs. You can read the rest from the link.
Earlier this year, they released their single -To The Beginning- on April 18th which was the opening for the second season of Fate/Zero.
A new single moonfesta ~ムーンフェスタ~ will be released next month on the 18th of July 2012. Can't wait to hear the full version.
If you want to check their songs out... My favorites are Kimi Ga Hikari Ni Kaete Yuku, Seventh Heaven and To The Beginning. I'd also recommend Destination Unknown, Oblivious and I Have A Dream.
Okay as promised, I'm gonna be doing a Korean music post. I asked Eva for some recommendations, Ley threw in a song recommendation too (which I have to say, I absolutely l.o.v.e) So I'll just post some of the chosen ones here.
Fans of Kpop would probably know these songs so ignore my noob-ness with Kpop.
So let's start off with the title of the post- BBI-RI-BOP-A by Brown Eyed Girls Narsha. Weird name huh xD
The music video somewhat reminds me of... Lady Gaga x Alice in Wonderland x Final Fantasy 8. Pretty cool actually... and this song is addictive, more addictive than Lucifer!
Hard to choose between "Take It Slow" or "Move" by Taeyang
'Take It Slow' somewhat reminds me of 'Don't Let Me Down' by Leona Lewis. And 'Move' sounds like something Chris Brown would sing in English LOL. I make the 'best' references huh.
This song makes me wanna dance! The lyrics of the chorus isn't too hard, catchy and makes you wanna sing along while shaking your booty. Well if one can remember the whole song's lyrics, it'd be a fun song to sing in the karaoke.
C.N.BLUE - I'm a Loner
I can imagine this song to be sang in a capella style, snapping your fingers and singing it. An enjoyable song to listen to actually. The melody and vocals are pretty good overall.
Big Bang -- Foolish Love
I don't know why, but the melody of this song reminds me of a chinese song. o.O;
A typical Big Bang styled ballad with parts of rap in the middle of the song. All of their songs sound decent to me, but I haven't encountered one that really catches my attention. I tend to forget their songs after awhile lol.
The same title as Ke$ha's Tik Tok lol. But other than the name, nothing is alike. I don't really have much to say about it song, as it didn't have any 'epic' parts in the song lol.
After listening to all those Korean songs, I realized that Korean songs are really similar to the American music scene, the music, voice, melody. But it's still not enough to make me into a big fan xD
Okay for the title 'Dans la Nuit'. It's a song by Sarah Brightman, it's the first title that came up in my iTunes when I had it on Shuffle.
So I'm gonna just post some songs that I'd 'recommend'. Not all are new though but I'll try to include the newer songs. (and for some reason I can't upload photos using blogger. Pfft... gonna just use imageshack next time)
Katy Perry -- Teenage Dream
Katy, who 'kissed a girl', who was hot and cold, and told us what's it like 'waking up in Vegas' lol. Damn she has very good tunes. So Teenage Dream is no different. It's good and catchy. Was either this or California Girls.
Remember that little girl from School of Rock? or the little sister who was in Drake and Josh? Or iCarly! Yes Miranda Cosgrove is all grown up and she's singing!
This is well... another love song like Teenage Dream but it's pretty worth listening to.
Well I'm not sure if he's well known in your parts of the woods but I've never heard of him before this. lol. Anyways he has pretty cool songs and I chose this one.
Andra & The Backbone -- Sempurna
There's something about this song that makes me love it. Sad song but happy at the same time.
Was gonna end the post but here's a worthy song to put in...
SHINee -- Lucifer
I know this song has a lotta fans lol. And most people are screaming about the fact Key shaved his head, Taemin had a sexy haircut. And haters would say they look like girls. I have no idea why I'd know their names btw. LOL. (Since I don't listen to Kpop)
But it's a catchy song with nice choreography so it deserves a spot.
