The Official Angela Aki Thread III

[Delicious n Bold]

I was so excited for Blue because Kokuhaku was my drug. Then Blue came out and angie gave us ukulele, monkeys and jazz.
unfffff.

But I'm kinda over that album. Today is better I think because it's more upbeat. It's the perfect summer album from her.

They were also saying that we're getting a new album soon. I'm semi excited. NOT as excited as I was for Blue. Yume/Ai does nothing for me sadly. It IS a cute song, but it's so bland and kinda generic, you know? Angie has done WAY better. WAAAAAY better.

Yume/Ai (love the abbreviation!) could've been better, yeah. I'm not disappointed, but I'm not that crazy about it either (even though I've had it on replay the whole day with around 50 listens (thanks for reminding me, last.fm)). But what made me like the song a little bit more is when I heard her whisper "unbelievable" after the bridge. That part makes me unbelievably happy for some reason haha.
But I wasn't psyched about Kokuhaku that much either. It was probably because of the release of Blue with a whole lot of new songs (before Blue came out, Kokuhaku was on 24/7). But yeah, Blue is an awesome album. Very refreshing. I got an interesting story about it too.
None of my close friends listen to Japanese music or have any interest in it (except for an occasional anime opening). I successfully created two Ayu fans on the side though . But one time, I ignored them all and decided to play Cry because of all the hype and excitement when Blue came out. And to my surprise... They all loved it. And actually made me play more of her songs! Now I frequently get asked to send Angie's songs and to play them when we hang out. The ones they love the most: Cry, aiueo, Monster, Requiem, Somebody Stop Me, Reflection, Silent Girl, Moral no Soushiki, Dalia, Your Love Song, Eyes on me (I think this one's thanks to FF, though. haha) and a few more.
I'm kinda spreading Angie madness around, nyahahahaha!
