:XD: It would be nice if we had a new Kajiura/Chiaki Ishikawa collaboration. But now I am talking about Fiction III again. :XD:
:plz:
 
Hm, KP-X, Yuki has used other vocalists too for english songs, apart from Emily. Aside from Deb Lyons and Margaret Dorn which Im not going focus at (because the are native speakers and I bet tha you know which songs thet sung), she has also used:

- Cumberbatch, Tulivu-Donna Lynn on the fiction's lullaby
- Yuri Kasahara on secret game, a farewell song, maze, Luminality and some others here and there.
- Yuriko
- Kaori (on tsubasa)
- Eri (you are my love eng)
- (FJ) Asuka on the english ver of the everlasting song (single only)
- Miyamura, Yuko on it's only the fairytale

(the 2 later have serious problem pronouncing english :blood: )
 
:dote: thanks so much elcazador! Is it me or they put on her too much make up ? :XD:
I dont like the colour combination. (black + white + blue + red) :uh..:
 
Concerning Tulivu, I'm not sure if it's her, but for now it's the closest comparison I can think of. :XD: But if it's a different vocalist, I'm anxious to know who she is. :wai:
Concerning pronunciation, Asuka's is more than tolerable. Yuko, on the other hand... Before seeing the lyrics, I thought she was singing something elaborate in Kajiuran. :desksweat: :XD:
And concerning new recordings... As much as I look forward to FJ and Kalafina releases, what I'd really like to see is a new See-Saw single. Because it's REALLY been a while. :plz:
 
See-Saw is DEAD. Accept it and go on. [btw, where's Chiaki? I want new single!!]

I know that. What I meant is, she has a huge preference for Bindiger for English songs, and that's a reflection of Fiction II, for example. And I don't know about you guys, but some of the vocalists you mentioned like Asuka and Yuko and Eri have a rather bad pronunciation when it comes to English, so I personally prefer someone that has good pronunciation to sing such songs (this may be a reason why I don't listen to some FJ songs live very often). Hence, since the Japanese singers she uses are still not that familiar with the language and it's better for her to use native speakers, why not switch more between the options rather than choose Bindiger for the majority? Of course, that's my opinion and it seems that's not going to happen, at least for now.

As for See-Saw, I'm not dying for it, since Chiaki is pretty well on her own. It would be nice, but I think it's good for her to go on her own way.

shes such a princess! (in a good way)
 
@KP-X: Chiaki is a great solo artist if you ask me. But her solo works, as well as all of Yuki's other collabs, somehow sound different. There's something unique to See-Saw songs, both in style and mood. As to being dead - they didn't even bother to break up officially. It's called frozen, not dead. And while the project is in the fridge, there's alays a possiblity that it will be taken out. See-Saw was likewise dead and gone by 2001, and then... :idol:
 
But I only said that they could do another collaboration. See-Saw is good, but not every song. I'm not telling which, but one makes me asleep. :uh..:
 
@Nick
I know that See-Saw has a different feel that Chiaki's songs, but I think that it is important for her to move on with her career in the way that it pleases her. If someday she decides to make another collaboration with Yuki again, good. But I believe she wants to be on her own for now (just like Maaya Sakamoto began to have fewer and fewer songs by Yoko Kanno in order to get to know more musicians, and well, it worked, she got number one on Oricon).
 
That's a given. :tea: Fan hopes are one thing, musicians' own aspirations are another. It would be arguable to gather up for the fans alone - that should be the right time coming, when they feel like it. That's when collaborations are the most fruitful, right? :innocent:
 
@elcazador: thanks a hell lot, will update the gallery now :chuu:

@Nick and KP-X: See-saw is officially still existed, they just freeze it. :tea:
 
^ I could care less about See-saw but I will always welcome them if they want to come back to the scene. Unlikely happening in near future though. Read Chiaki's blog about she recorded something.

@Kagaribi: I compared Lotus to .hack tracks, what you were reminded of is probably Aura. :XD:
Yes you're right...lol...I'm very bad at remembering the song title... :uh..: ...and when you said that it should be aura, I can search it..lol..and yes..some structure in lotus reminds me that song.
 
^ :omg: The Fiction II site, finally!!!! :sohappy: :sohappy: :sohappy:oh it seems they havent finished it yet :rain:

oh it look like they didnt cut the songs :sohappy: :sohappy:

my comments:

1. Oh it looks like the image theme of Xenosaga II of Fiction II is FJ live ver alla Deb Lyons, but I dontl ike the way the bass and the drums sound >_>.

2. now that I hear mor of I swear the girl's voice was annoying at first but it then got ok and I think it fits the song, which is pretty good :dote:
