I actually LOVED M, Love song, SEASONS and Dearest so much hahah
You & Me was different in a good way
BLUE BIRD was alright in the end hahah..felt a bit too fast. the Power of Music wan was stellar. Days was slightly predictable (though the song's still great). Somehow it was great to hear Voyage again but yea, felt like the same song TOTALLY.

Im downloading now!
Is M different from power of music?!?!

[Bad Wolf]

It's a rather gorgeous album, I must say. Especially Love song.

[sanzo2011]

SEASONS 's amazing! Seriously, i can listen to 12773926989.... versions of that song but can't get over it!
BLUE BIRD's good but not what i expected! i'd like to have POM version!

[TeamAyu2004]

Listening to M now...
very pretty!

[jiarongisme]

Omg the album is pure gold. I love every single track on it. Brilliant!

Just like they dd with You & Me and Love song.

I agree. Those two songs are the highlights of this album. The other songs seem to have the same type of arrangements with strings everywhere. I LOVE strings but listening to the whole thing is a hard thing to do. It's pretty indigestible.
There was also a lot of strings in MY STORY Classical, but its use was very subtle, very clever. There is a whole world between those two albums IMO.
Here I just listen to "basic" classical arrangements, there is no surprise at all, I can't feel a great creativity/investment behind.
Of course, it's just my opinion, I'm glad some people love it but I'm not sure this album will be on repeat or will last.

So I use the avex tag (A Classical ver.) XD

They're all new arrangements so nothing reused from PoM (as far as I'm aware...haven't watched that concert in a few months) but M is definitely different to PoM ver.

[TeamAyu2004]

i love this album... lol.. have had it playing in the background all morning!

[microphone]

SEASONS, Dearest, M and Song 4 U are currently my favorites. What a great album. Also, we have five new songs to look forward to next month. Yes...!!!

[Zeke.]

Why does everyone always want a damn "surprise" lol ???

[errikkutrancex]

in fact, after listening, "My Sotry classical" was really much better (here in A Claissical it is a little "too much" and too close of the original lyrics (no need to put all the lyrics)
But good album anyway, but not her best :p (and very expensive for a remix album!)

[errikkutrancex]

by the way, do people know what kind of things we can access with the "special card coded" ? (special site seems like, but what is there inside...?)

[truehappiness]

You have to pay to get orchestras involved! That kind of explains the high price imo.

And no one knows yet. It will probably be revealed sometime this month or early February when the last release is announced.
