Aimer's 03:00 AM
So good
After all those favourite Kalafina tracks in your intro post, you're now posting one of (if not outright) my favourite Aimer tracks in here?
Back on topic, just finally got my copy of Aimer's Daydream in the mail (stupid SAL), so listening through that.
Omg you like Aimer too?! Aimer is literally one of my favorite singers
But yeah, 3 AM is just too good. I just love Aimers super chill songs. What other songs do you like? Some of my other favorites by her are Dareka Umiwo, us, insane dream, RE: I AM, samishikute nemurenai yoru ha, and Cold Sun.
On topic though, I'm currently listening to some crappy pop music that's playing on someone's phone right now because Im at a study group, and they wanted to play music.
Aimer is my secondary favourite Japanese artist behind Kalafina. Her voice is just something else entirely, I absolutely adore it. I'm also a pretty big fan of Maon Kurosaki, ClariS, Perfume, Mami Kawada and Ling Tosite Sigure, if you're familiar with any of them. There are many others as well, but those are the ones I tend to go back to regularly. I do have a last.fm account with the same username here, and I've been tracking my listening habits on my PC for the last decade or so .
03:00AM is amazing indeed, especially the live version that's on the Brave Shine single, which is actually where I first heard the song. I didn't get a copy of Midnight Sun until I was in Japan last year although I'd heard her other albums. Other songs I love are Cold Sun, Dare ka, Umi wo, Words, StarRingChild, Ophelia and, being a Ling fan, naturally Kowairo and Us. The only reason I regard 03:00AM as only a possible overall favourite is because Us exists, and that song is goddamn perfect.
Topic-wise, just finishing up Daydream, on the final track now. As expected it's a damn good album . Still probably place Midnight Sun as the best of her works, but everything else is strong as well.
Aimer released a new album?!?!?!?!?Btw, I was unaware that Aimer had released a new album
Mili's world.execute(me)
I'd highly recommend Mili btw! They're a Japanese group (who mostly publish their music on Youtube) and they're not really well known, but their music is super unique and I love it. Some of their stuff is almost Kajiura-esque lol. Their 2nd album is releasing soon, I'm so excited.
Here's a link to a couple of my favorite songs by them, if anyone's curious:
