My two cents on the covers:
DEPARTURES: I like HYDE and all, but I wasn't really feeling this cover. It's the way the he sings the verses. The chorus I had no problem with.
FACES PLACES: I only got through about halfway before I was like "done, next". I'm just not a fan of this song. I like Kaela, but she couldn't make me like this song.
Joy to the love: I thought it was nice, I enjoyed it. It would have been nice to have the old raps in this version. Oh well.
Many Classic Moments: I think Ayu's cover of Movin' on without you might be a little better than this, but I still find this enjoyable. I'll also take the EDM over the rap the original had anyday. That rap is the reason why I don't listen the original and prefer to listen to remixes who cut him out. I always found it so tacked on and unnecessary.
Precious Memories: I agree with Kacku's thoughts on this song. Miu Sakamoto's voice is AMAZING. That arrangement does take some getting used to though. I think this one may grow on me with time.
FACE: The raps were the only thing I liked about this cover. I wish there were more raps and less of the actual song to be quite honest.
Can't Stop Fallin' in Love: This cover I really like! This is my second favorite on the album.
FREEDOM: This actually rekindled my interest in the song. I was getting a little bored with the original.
Wanderin' Destiny: This is without a doubt my favorite of the bunch. It's the best thing Kuu's put out all year.
Love again: Going to agree with Kacku on this one.
Anytime smokin' cigarette: YES HITOMI. You did great with this one.
SWEET PAIN: It's a decent effort in my opinion.
wanna Be A Dreammaker: Nice nice nice.
Sa Yo Na Ra: It's alright, nothing special.
