However, I do really love Atsushi's voice in this one, but it seemed to clash with female voice.

The backing vocals don't match the emotional tone of the song because the song is sexy and the backing vocals are not.

What...Hm, I must say I don´t mind the Lolis per se. What I mind is that the song doesn´t sound harmonic. <br />It doesn´t make any “emotional sense” anymore. Instead of sounding passionate, it only ended up being a mix of lots of awesome ideas.<br />At first I thought: “Ok, I like how Yuka´s voice makes the beginning sound ghostly” and sort of hoped it would go on in a similar style. Then I thought “Oh, it´s that stiff ( :3 ) beat again” , and then I heard the violins, the electric guitar, the accordion and those two totally different voices and started wondering what the hell they are actually trying to convey. <br />What I liked about the Razzle Dazzle version was that floating feeling. It had the same beat but it still sounded passionate and hot, whereas the new version rather makes me think of a haunted house, marching soldiers and Lareine´s Goshujinsama No Tango (listen to it, the end of this Victims version is so similar!). <br />Oh well, I get that they put a lot of effort into this, but in my opinion, it was too much of a good thing. <br /><br />And thank you for all these awesome reviews ;-*.<br />I´m sure only our dear Cayce is ingenious enough for decrypting Sakurai´s lyrics of three new songs within a few days~Julihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11391364274054172801noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8994365939017837190.post-27122576453314589322014-05-16T03:48:54.494+09:002014-05-16T03:48:54.494+09:00Oh, Cayce!

And here I thought Buck-Tick was good, wholesome family fun (no, wait, I didn't). Thank you for these reviews, was a pleasure reading them!crossparallelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07731017836081721370noreply@blogger.com
