Kazeyomi [Regular Edition]Maaya SakamotoMagical voice
I think I've heard Maaya's voice for the first time on one of Yoko Kanno's soundtracks. Then I've bought my first Maaya's original album "Shonen Alice" conisdered by me as one of my favourites. She is such an amazing artist, with lovely, beautiful voice. When "Kazeyomi" was announced to be released in January I've immediately pre-ordered special edition. I was expecting another journey to Maaya's world. And I was not disappointed. "Kazeyomi" contains some of the best Maaya's works: "AO NO ETHER", "KAZAMIDORI" or "GUITER HIKI NI NARITAINA" are beautiful songs you actually can't stop playing. It also contains "Vento" and "Colours" , in my opinion, the most beautiful songs Maaya's ever recorded so far. Hopefully "Colours" will be released as single one day as this song must be heard. Just listen to her stunning voice, beautiful lyrics and that delicate guitar... It's a magical song. Usually I listen to very heavy rock music, but on Maaya's records I've found peace and calm. Maaya's voice makes my days better and makes me happier person.
