Long time no post! But I hope that it's at least quality of quantity... but then again, maybe not.

This time I bring you... Rascal! I love them and want to share the love.

BEST ALBUM OF THE 90's. EVER. (In my humble opinion, of course) But this is definitely the ever wonderful Mariah Carey's best album. The production is slick and flawless, and there's not one track I don't like. :D~ It may be nearly 13 years old, but its music is definitely timeless.

Sorry I have been missing in action for so long. I have just had a super busy Summer, and my internet has also not been appreciating life much at all.... But I figured I better try to get a few things uploaded off of my list, because I feel HORRIBLE for taking so long to do so. Good news is, my Grandfather has been speaking of getting a new ISP so... Pray it is a good one. :D

Ayu's landmark 10th studio album took months to grow on me. At first, I thought it was a huge mess, lacking flow and effort. 5 months later, it is a declaration of loving life and enjoying it to the fullest. While I would re-arrange this album and I wish she had put a couple more ballads on here to flesh this album out more, it's really not all that bad once you listen to it a lot. Plus, I like techno, so that's a plus. The singles for this album were stellar, and I particularly love the album exclusive tracks rollin' and Curtain call.

Please. Enjoy it. :)

Maki Yano is probably one of my favourite Japanese singer-songwriters; it's a shame that she's not very well known on the internet at all. This album (the second album from her discography) contains the very first song I heard from her: 大きな翼 (Ookina Tsubasa), which is ridiculously catchy acoustic pop song. I seriously recommend this girl :).

Hi everyone! I'm sorry that I've been MIA lately. I ended up taking a summer math class and, as most English majors would agree, math is most definitely not my forte. >>;; So I've been preoccupied with that and then getting together my papers for transferring to University of Hawai'i at Manoa. I'm moving in a couple of days, but I figured that I should upload this before then and to also apologize for disappearing. XD;; Anyway, enjoy! ♥

download. - PV

Summary: New single from Anna! ♥ "Brave Vibration" has a happy, summer-y (but still Anna and edge-y) feel to it, and I really like the PV; she looks gorgeous in it--certainly suited to a tropical paradise. :Dv "Loser!" is more typically pop-rock/rock in her usual style. Really like it (but already admitted that I like most of Anna's stuff, so... that point is moot. XD). "Sweet Rishi Boy" is a mash-up and.... erm. It's... very Indian? :D;;;; Still trying to decide if I like it or not. It's different, that's for certain, and it might grow on me more with time. On the other hand, though, "Brave Vibration" and "Loser!" are definitely ♥ for me~
