Since Kalafina is the present most on going project of Yuki, so we will have this thread dedicated for Kalafina songs :XD:

there is also another thread to explain about why do u llove certain other yuki's songs :plot:


so, this is a thread to discuss about Kalafina Song that u love and tell why do u like it.

just like mine here:


I love Ongaku, Progressive, Yami No Uta, Aria, Haru wa, Kizuato, , Sprinter, Kagayaku Sora, and To the Beginning :sohappy: because of the melodic and the feeling yuki put in the music :TdT:.


Kalafina songs have more darker and mysterious image, yet it still have the typical emotion and feeling of yuki's songs combined with the voices of Hikaru, Keiko, and Wakana :love:

now ur turn :sparkleguy:
 
I like Toki no Sabaku
--- every part of the melody is just so catchy for me XD
--- the flutes
--- the lyrics are amazing, like there is a really deep story behind it
 
Seventh Heaven
- the strings
- Wakana is in her best here.
- all three of them have an almost equal participation in the song
- lyrics, for a KnK sucker such as I am
- it's just too beautiful for my little heart to handle
- Harmonization
- so powerful and melancholic
- It always seems to be evolving. The song never stays the "same"
- It's Shiki's Theme, for God's sake
 
Everlasting Song Live version, Sprinter, adore, lirica, fantasia, Kyrie, A Song of Storm and Fire (most tracks from the TRC OSTs), I have a dream, live vol 2 *___* and and and and....

Basically what I love is the Kajiuran that Yuki-sama make, they have no meaning, but they still have those feelings that describes something xD
and I loooooove harmonies :shy:
sooo Kajiuran+harmonies = phila is happy :nosebleed:
 
I love Lacrimosa , Magia , Kimi ga hikari ni kaete yuku , Oblivious , Mune no Yukue , Sprinter , Love come down , Mezame , Everlasting song (live version) , In the land of twilight under the moon , Salva Nos etc..
It's difficult to choose a song because are ALL wonderful , with a particular feature and also give me different emotions!
Yuki sama is able trought the lyrics of the songs to bring out the best of their voices!
But perhaps Lacrimosa is more dear for me , because is the first song I've heard of Kalafina and then I fell in love with their voices :shy: Especially my Wacchan :shy: :shy:
 
Progressive
- the beat
- the guitar solo and bg (both some of my favorites)
- the violin
- Keiko's line
- the catchiness of the simple lines and more complicated chorus

Utsukushisa
- the arrangement
- Hikaru's "tsuki wa kyou mo..."
- the feeling of weightlessness and mystery
- the guitar solo (again, one of my favorites)
- "bokura o tsutsumu"
- the guitar at the very end
 
Re: Explain why do you like "this" song ?

@KP: that is how I feel about seventh heaven as well. :dote:

Kotonoha-Kalafina

-the melody is melancholy and so beautiful
-Wakana's voice again, although I love Hikaru's parts as well
-The underwatery feel of the song
-it still brings a smile to my face even though it has a sad tone to it
 
I like...

I have a Dream
Wakana voice is very appealing me. Her soothing tone here really catches me. I feel the love of the song and the girls really brings the best of it.

Sprinter
- the song really is like what it describes, the beat is perfect the pace is fantastic, simply sprinter!

Storia
- I love the flute blending with the other intruments and reminds me of fantasy games and fantasy world like the voices of the elves in Record of Lodoss War. Perfect Harmony and wonderful pitch control.

Seranato
- I love the lyrics, the mysterious , the folk feeling of the music and I can feel the story/adventure through Wakana's voice.

to the beginning
Wakana made me fall in love again. The chorus is simply magnificent surely the best Kajiuran Battle theme for me.

Mata Kaze ga Tsuyoku natta
My favorite guitar arrangement, electrifying, power chorus, best Keiko bridge for me.

Kimi ga Hikari ni Kaete Iku
A song that is so sad it gives me teary eye all the time and I just love it, this is the song that made me fell in love with Wakana's voice.

:dote:
 
Hmmm, finally we have some place to explain [why] we love her music, not just always say 'Oh its so awesome', like some (for example) Justin Bieber fanboy/girls. Thanks for this thread.

Edit: I must be too tired when I type this where I read Kalafina as Kajiura...

Eden: Hikaru made this song so lively and fun. It sounds like the style in I reach for the sun (FJ) and symphonia and I'm glad about that (Yuki doesn't have much song like that). I love the harmony, not as complex as FJ's four-part but its clear everyone's job. Plus I like the composition.

Sandpiper: Again Hikaru really nailed it, especially this is more of those epic songs where Kalafina is not very used to. Loved she and Wakana did put stresses on where it should be, but not over doing it.

seventh heaven: One of the most beautifully composed song of many beautiful songs ever composed by Kajiura. (Biased by its extensive string arrangement lol) And Wakana suits this song so well.
WHY DONT WE HAVE LIVE VERSION FOR THIS...

That's what I can think of right now...(I'm sure there's more)
 
anyway, we have decided to split the thread.

I asked george to move the post of non kalafina one to the other thread, but apparently the only non kalafina one is only Kera post but the posts containing kalafina and non-kalafina cannot be copied to both thread. I think everyone should edit their posts, leave the explanation of kalafina songs here and mention the non-kalafina one in this thread

viewtopic.php?f=5&t=3284 :ohoho:


:bow:
 
sprinter
- pure chaos
- it's fast
- love the strings in it
- some parts of the lyrics are amazing
- love the bridge
- kajiurago
- love how the song gets really dramatic in the end
- "I'm calling tojiru rasen ni sakaratte
naite sakende kiete yuku bokura wa"
- I love the SECOND guitar of this song (one of the reasons I don't like this song live that much)

ARIA
- extremely powerful song
- lyrics, again
- cello and viola in it are amazing
- love the "percussion" in the whole song
- another song that always seems to be evolving
- each chorus feels different from the other, with my favorite being the penult
- harmonization
- completely melancholic due to its instruments

Kimi ga Hikari ni Kaete Iku
- Keiko in the beginning is sublime
- cello again
- love the instrumental bridge
- love how Wakana and Keiko complete each other's lines in the middle
- powerful and sad
- the silver rainbow ;X
 
This is gonna take a few posts :ohoho:

oblivious:
- Ah the first Kalafina song I listened to
- I love Tomaru Hanae's chorus vocals
- the Wakana-Keiko duet part in the middle
- in the live performances, when all three girls fall into harmony at 'we go further in the destiny...'
:dote:

Natsu no Ringo:
- the charming yet peaceful mood of the song...it's like a wonderful little 'folk' song
- the lyrics and melody are so sweet, brings to mind picturesque images of the countryside
- Wakana, Wakana, Wakana...really the heart and soul of the song...also this is a song where her voice doesn't sound so sad like it usually does but more nostalgic and sort of tenderly happy
- Hikaru also sounds really sweet in this song
- in the live performance, the very last line "Sonno natsu no…Adokenai ringo, Itsumademo…Mune ni au kajitsu..." makes my heart skip a beat
:sohappy:

fairytale:
- Keiko's parts :nosebleed:
- Wakana's 'sayonara'
- the Keiko-Wakana call and answer part 'Yume ni mita eien wa... tozasareta mama de...'
:shy:

ARIA:
- Hikaru is very powerful
- the background vocals (kajiurago bits)
:dote:

Kizuato:
- Keiko singing higher notes!
- Wakana and Keiko always pair well together
:sohappy:

serenato:
- love the 'eastern folk' feeling of this song
- think it really suits Wakana
:dote:

Ongaku:
- Keiko sounds so cool and kickass
- Wakana's kajiurago in the bridge Gyyyyaaaa~~~~
:love:

Ashita no Keshiki:
- love how it begins soft and then builds up passionately
- Hikaru's voice when she sings her parts
:dote:

sprinter:
- my favourite thing is how each vocalist's lines layer over each other, it's complex and beautiful
- it's upbeat yet not overly 'hyperactive', so to speak; a really nice in-between tempo
- Wakana's 'sekai no hate madeeeeee'
- the strings make me feel really happy for some reason
- During lives, the 'kimi ni aitai...kimi ga koishii...kimi ni aitai...kimi ga itoshii' parts when the girls are pointing and smiling at the audience
:nosebleed:

Kimi ga Hikari ni Kaete Iku:
- probably my first definite favourite Kalafina song
- Both Keiko and Wakana sound gorgeous
- The Keiko-Wakana part in the middle where they alternate singing
- the strings
- the lyrics are beautiful
- pretty much love everything about this song
:love: :nosebleed:

seventh heaven:
:hearts: :hearts:
- the ultimate ballad; it's majestic, sad, moving, tragic, hopeful - how did Yuki combine all these emotions into one song?? This song really can't be described in words, to me, it's one of those things you have to feel to understand
- also love how this song starts off quiet and then builds up so majestically, it's breathtaking
- all three girls sound so beautiful in this song! It somehow suited all of their voices.
- the lyrics are indescribably beautiful
- Wakana's solo verse: 'konnani akarui sekai he, kimi ga watashi wo tsure te kita, mabushiku te mabushiku te, nanimo mie nai, hikari no naka...' I can just hear the raw emotion behind her voice...and I love it when Keiko comes in at the end of that too
- in short, this song is my perfect song. I only wish it was longer and that I may be able to hear it performed live one day...
:TdT: :touched:

I'll leave it there for now but I'll continue posting later - otherwise we'd be here forever :ohoho: :XD:
 
Re: Explain why do you like "this Kalafina song" ?

sorry to break the fun, but this thread supposed to be at the SPAM section?

Seems its like a game thread IMHO. :/
 
^ Hmm.. I think so..
___________________________________________

So here's mine... I'm trying to generalize because it will be too long if I won't.

Natsu no Ringo
- It makes me fall in love.

Neverending
- I remember someone every time I play this song.
- La, la, la, la part is sooo... :shy:

In Your Eyes , Hoshi no Utai ,
- It makes me wanna dance.

Yume no Yukue
- So cute and different

Sprinter , Mata Kaze ga Tsuyokunatta , Destination Unknown , Storia
- Kalafina vocal power
- Kajiurago
- Darkness / rock impact

Aria , Seventh Heaven , Lacrimosa , Red Moon , Symphonia , Kizuato , Kugatsu , Eden , Snow Falling , Sandpiper ,
- Boosting emotion
- The great power of Kajiurago (on selected songs with kajiurago)
- Darkness / great impact
 
from the To The Beginning Preview, i like the intro followed by the violin solo :dote:

i like how Keiko begin the first line followed by overlapping Hikaru and Wakana as the main :love:

this is really suitable for battle theme. i have long miss this kind of music :TdT:
 
to the beginning

-Fate/Zero's my favorite anime the moment it aired and Kalafina's "to the beginning" fitted the image of the series so well! It's upbeat, exciting, and to me gives a hint of unearthiness that I've missed from Kalafina! (But who knows, I'm music stupid so I might not know what I'm talking about when utilizing these terms!) Nonetheless, I've waited for months for a new Kalafina song, hoping it didn't blend too much with After Eden, and this is the result!!!! An awesome battle-esque song by my favorite group for my favorite anime! *A* I couldn't be any happier!
 
red moon:
- dark Wakana
- powerful chanting
- Keiko's amazing part at the end
- a dark and tragic mood, it sounds despairing but powerful and stirring too
:love: :nosebleed:

Hikari no Senritsu:
- one of those few songs where Wakana sounds happy rather than sad
- Hikaru is so cute at the beginning!
- the carefree yet gentle mood
:cheer:

Te to Te to Me to Me:
- makes me wanna wiggle mah hips around XD
- filled with Keiko goodness <3
- the girls look like and sound like they're having heaps of fun, especially in lives
- the 'dancing' during lives is amusing to watch XDD
:ohoho:

fantasia:
- the kajiurago throughout
- like the Keiko/Hikaru combo, they both sound so good
- the beat, very upbeat, makes me tap my foot along
- Wakana on background chorus too, combines well with their voices, and her solo part in the middle is nice too
:w00t:

Haru wa Kogane no Yume no Naka:
- another one of my favourite ballads
- Wakana at the beginning and end, with the minimal instrument accompaniment, her voice alone with piano is just...arrrgghhh my heart melts
- when Hikaru comes in with the strings, then with Keiko coming in and the music swelling...aaaaahhhh my heart goes from melting to lurching and beating really fast and I'm left breathless
- the melody is pretty...as are the lyrics (though the title is SO LONG, even in English XD)
- just love the calming, soothing mood of the song...it's not sad exactly, but very peaceful
:hearts: :shy:

Kyrie:
- pretty title!
- for some reason it just makes me wanna twirl around and around, especially in the chorus
- it has a graceful and elegant feel for me, but a hint of sadness too
- for some reason it just reminds me of suffering nobly from an unrequited love with dignified resignation
:cry:

Yami no Uta:
- Deliciously dark and evil
- Keiko reminds me of an awesome seductive evil queen
:whip:

Hoshi no Utai:
- whenever I hear this song, I imagine Hikaru as a samurai, Wakana as the samurai's wife and Keiko as the samurai's master XD so listening to this song is very fun for me
- love the far eastern, Asian atmosphere
- the flute at the beginning
:hero:

storia:
- one of my favourite songs!
- I think this song is one of Wakana's best; her voice sounds really really good for some reason in this song, really smooth yet conveys that uplifting, swelling emotion. my chest actually physically feels lighter when i listen to this song
- the lyrics are soooo poetic and beautiful
:sohappy: :sohappy:

intermezzo:
- unique music box effect
- wish it was longer XD

progressive:
- nice vocals from Hikaru
- love the kajiurago bits
- the song makes me wanna dance

Lacrimosa:
- Wakana being powerful here (especially live), and she and Keiko once again make an awesome powerhouse combo
- a lot of turbulent and strong emotions come through in this song, it's desperate, and almost angry
- epic kajiuran chanting
:TdT: :touched:

I have a dream:
- another one of my all-time favourites
- makes me feel the urge to wave my arms up high and sway lowly to the music
- the song is so calming and soothing, always instantly cheers me up with its gently hopeful mood
- it's as if the girls are comforting me through their song
- Wakana's voice is so nice and smooth and gentle
:dote: :dote: :dote:

Hmmm...going through this, I've actually discovered some funny things:
- If it's a Kalafina ballad, I will probably love it :XD: Don't know why but I just love their ballad/slow songs
- And wow, I am really really REALLY biased towards Wakana...not that I don't love Keiko and Hikaru of course~ :XD: I guess I always knew that but still...WHOA :XD: I should probably try to be more impartial XD
