'Voice' has Mika Nakashima leaning more toward a hardcore form of 'adult contemporary' than the kind she displayed on her earlier albums, and it's a well-done mix. 'Life,' for example, is a soothing soft pop ballad with an electro groove; 'SAKURA~Hanagasumi~ (Daishi Dance)' has a gorgeous techno-classical sound (even though the original version was better); and 'Orion' (the best song on the CD) is an ambient rock ballad that gripped me the first time I heard it. The rest of the album has a soft and light feel to it, but 'I Don't Know' (her first English single) and 'Shut Up' are completely hard and heavy songs that sound interesting, but seem out of place on this album. Still, 'Voice' is an amazing CD and the best album released in 2008.
