This album is another solid effort from Mari, with fine variance between catchy and softer material alike. The opening track I Feel Blue is a nice song to mellow out with, while other tracks like Baby Please Me and Crime are quite the melodic pop gems that one would hope for from an artist like Mari. My favorite song on this album is People! People! People! for its energetic sounds along with a nice chorus line. Ame No Strawberry Farm and the album closer Genki De Ne also make worthy listening if you have some time to sit back and immerse yourself with some comforting music. Overall, a worthy effort that makes a great listen for fans of the artist, and those who appreciate good pop music.
