i'm on my second play for LIVE. i can't really say if it's better than color, but i have a bad habit of comparing albums, lol. i seriously gotta stop!
my most favorite album track, besides for BE FUNKY!, is Dancin' in the Secret. it's just so fun to listen to! "it's like a fantasy.."
and besides for LIVE and the single tracks (which i love), i also REALLY like Umareshi Kimi e, Aki no sora, Wonderland, Naiyou no Nai Tegami, and Share (i heard this song last year but i can't remember if i liked it or not, but i really love the studio version). Futari/130000000 no Kiseki sounds a bit similar to LIVE, i think. i can't remember how Endless Summer sounds like, so i gotta go replay it. and D.T.F.....the background music/instrumental sounds so silly, haha. if only it was a hot song instead of a weird song
overall, it really is a solid album! i really loved color, but i can't compare it to LIVE. i love both albums, but i just really loved color so so much. for me personally, i don't like how inactive NEWS was since last year. i don't lose interest, but i do forget about them for a bit. i liked how active they were in 2008 and i can only wish they'll be that active next year, cause lack of releases makes me drift away from an artist. especially when they only release 2 singles in 2 years! really JE, keep NEWS decently active next year! i don't want a repeat of 2009 & 2010. i can't take the wait
lol.
