Hmm. I'm still curious about Shikata-san, so I'm going to listen to these.
I don't really like the first one...it's a nice Celtic Woman-esque song, but her voice sounds very strange
The second one is...
![wheee :sohappy: :sohappy:](https://canta-per-me.net/inc/smileys/sohappy.gif)
I can take her voice a little more here. And that instrumental part that starts just before it fades out...
The third one is very Enya...
but without the bells and the piano and the breathy-sounding chorus and all that other stuff that Enya unfortunately wears out
The fourth one...hmm. I do like it, but it sounds...well, sped-up, as though they recorded it slow and then ran it through a speed-changing program
The fifth one is pretty good. The second half is better than the first. But I think I'll quickly get tired of that background chorus. It's too loud for my taste
Coincidentally, I don't remember her voice sounding like this in the songs I listened to before
![come again? :confu: :confu:](https://canta-per-me.net/inc/smileys/confu.gif)
(Unless I've forgotten, that is. I didn't listen to much of her songs in the first place...)
Well, all in all, it's all right. I think Kajiura-sensei could take inspiration from some of her arrangements and style. I might try finding these in full on Youtube once the single comes out
I have to admit, Shikata-san has an interesting sound...
but she just doesn't touch my heart like Kajiura-sensei does...
