idk how I feel about this the tribute album anymore based on the previews...

-Glamorous Sky: I mean....HYDE's English never did anything for me. Would have preferred that he stuck to the original lyrics.
-I like the soft jazz thing that Aimer has going on with her ORION cover
-I don't know what the hell is even happening with Ichiban kirei na watashi wo
-I'll probably listen to Chihiro Onitsuka's cover of Fighter more than I listen to the original (though I'm not a huge fan of the song in general and wish she could have covered something else)
-STARS sounds okay I guess
-LIFE started out promising but.......it's instrumental? I get that Emiri Miyamoto is a great violinist but having an instrumental interpretation in the middle of all the other covers with vocals is so jarring
-I like the sound of Koe but I don't know why I would choose to listen to this version over Mika's. It would have been amazing if like, SUPERFLY covered it
-Why does the instrumentation in Ai Kotoba sound so synthetic and overprocessed? no thanks

and some of the previews are too short to even tell what's happening in the song. idk guys, idk.
