Mika Nakashima Calendar 2007 (Try-X Ltd.)Mika NakashimaSuperb stylish, astonishly fashionable
More price, smaller size but it comes in better everything. Now it's placed neatly in a folder, succesfully added certain exclusivite. The calendar itself consists of 6 different pages (+1 extras as inner cover), each with theme related to (mostly) preceiding B-sides songs. The photos inside are superb, artsy & veryfashionable (thanks to those Jean-Paul Gaultier wardrobe), I found it gazillion times looked more attractive than 2005 & 2006 one but I wished for better paper thickness. No matter what you fan of Mika of not, placing it definitely will add some stylish environment in your room.

This single is like second "Seppun" single for me. Both got cover tracks and fortunately sounds good as well. I really like the reggae touch. Very relaxing yet very Mika.Thumbs up to ya & Sony!

All Hands TogeterMika NakashimaALL HANDS TOGETHER hands me down :(
I have listened the songs and found somehow ALL HANDS TOGETHER is not my cup of tea.The PV is also so-so for me. Despite of them, I like the 'What a Wonderful World' cover. Mika, try something but not gospel...

Mika Nakashima Calendar 2005 (Try-X Ltd.)Mika NakashimaQuite a calendar...
Not as good as 2004 & 2006 Mika's calendar, expecially the layout.The international concept is good but to be frank, I expect something more classy than this. The outfits Mika wore look like just found-out from 80's closet. No comment about the silver bikini. Really must-have collectible for all Mika fans nonetheless. See? They are sold-out already :)

LOVEMika NakashimaStill Mika's Magnum Opus
For me, this is still the best Mika album. Every track succesfully resemblance how mature and sophisticated Mika's music is. It's pop but sounds very distinctive than other J-pop in general. There are plenty jazzy touch here. "Love Addict", "Aroma", "Be in Silence" are the results.Other tracks are beautiful also, like romantic "Aishiteru",reggae cover of a 1993 song "Seppun" and the biggest single hit from Mika: "Yuki no Hana". Really lovely albums...

MUSICMika NakashimaEclectic MUSIC
Eclectic.That's how I consider 3rd album from Mika as. Rather than jazzy-ballads LOVE and so-called 'common' J-pop TRUE, this album promisig something out-of-the-box for both Mika fans and Jpop listeners in general. Every tracks as it's distinctive own characteristics, from melancholic ballads 'Sakura Iro Mau Koro' until cheerful 'Rocking Horse'. Mika succesfully proof the talent for being beyond expectations make this album one of the best Jpop album throughout 2005.
