Suzumiya haruhi no Tsumeawase - TV Anime The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya Gekichu Kashu Single

Aya Hirano is a very talented and versatile seiyuu. Her performance in singing both "God Knows" and "Lost my Music" were the highlights ofwhat was already a brilliant episode of the series. Miss Hirano has an incredible ability to project her voice in these songs, while remaining in the voice of her character, which is considerably different to what I've heard of her everyday speaking voice. In addition to keeping her voice in character, she keeps both the pace and mood of the song in their intended spirit. These two songs are very good rock songs in their own right; catchy riffs and lead licks on the intro and bridge; my only gripe is the "Lost my Music" solo is a bit over the top, but that's more there to illustrate Nagato Yuki's incredible shredding ability ^^. The final track is one that makes many a Haruhi fan cringe, but they cannot help but applaud Yuko Goto's deliberately bad performance in the song. It's one thing to sing bad; it's another to do so deliberately, and Miss Goto brings across her character's frightened and impromptu theme song performance for a high school video very well. Definitely a must buy for the fans of the series.

This CD Includes both songs from the concert shown in the episode "Live a Live" (God Knows.. & Lost My Music) and the hilarious "Koi no Mikuru Densetsu" opening from the episode "Asahina Mikuru no Bouken". Even non-fans will be able to recognize the quality in these songs; even "Koi no Mikuru Densetsu" is a great example of how to make an intentionally "bad" song. All in all, a great CD. Includes a double sided mini-poster featuring the cover and backcover of this CD.

The songs from Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuutsu. Fantastic and very pleasing to listen. A must get for all fans of this anime. Comes with a open up booklet that can also be use as a poster
