Yuki music you didn't like at first, but did later on

To me most notably, Synchronicity by Keiko. I didnt like the techno/electronica (whatever you call it) intro at all. But after a few try, I fell in love with Keiko's low vocals. (thanks Keiko) However, I didnt like the original Synchronicity (by Yui Makino) at all.

Some others were Serenato (Kalafina), 49scale (Chiaki Ishikawa)

Sapphire - I thought it was too plain when I first heard it, but after a few listens I realized how beautiful the orchestra is.

Exactly! I see a lot of flak about songs like Sapphire and Utsukushisa because they're "too simple", but that's exactly what makes them so beautiful.
 
Canta per me is the first one. I got this song and i played it on repeat without really knowing why.I absolutely adore this song now.
Kalafina's Progressive: At start i was like ''hmm what the heck is this'' but after it grew in me as well.
Keiko's Synchronicity for the same reasons like many of you :XD: How silly i have been!
A song of storm and fire I know i must have been reeeaaally weird for not liking this one. :uh..: I love it now.
Most Yuuka's songs like for example Silly-go-round.It took me a while to love them.
Parallel Hearts :rain: no idea why i didn't give this song as much attention it deserved at start.Maybe because i first listened to it as an anime OP only.

Not to mention,at start i didn't even care about Kalafina :XD: But i like them very much now.

Ok now time for me to ruuuuuuun :cry:
 
Lirica <-- Used to be neutral. From time to time, I'd start loving it a lot and put it on repeat.

Serenato <-- Same as above
Oblivious <-- Permanently a Kalafina favourite now ;)
Hanamori no Oka <-- Same as above
 
Jumping Fish (See-Saw)--I used to think this song was boring, and then I read a review at Anime Dream where the reviewer said that Chiaki's voice overpowers Yuki's lovely piano, then I listened more closely, and it started sounding like a solo song of Chiaki's.

Mata Aeru Kara (See-Saw)--Same as above (boring at first), but then as I listened to it more, it started sounding so final. It didn't hurt that I know it's the Very Definitely Final song of the first See-Saw era. Now I love it.

Boogiepop--same as above (boring at first; seeng a pattern yet?). But then I listened to it on my MP3 player while walking alone (wearing my backpack) at night near a McDonalds. It felt both creepy and "hehe no one knows I'm here :plot: "

Silent Ceremony--It was just plain too scary! :omg: Then I had a dream about cooking Indian food while it played, and it creeped me the heck out. :knife: And I could've sworn that song was Indian. Then I remembered it's from Petite Cossette and made by Yuki Kajiura. I've loved it ever since.

And since apparently, Chiaki's solo work is allowed:

Many Days Many Times--Once again, I thought it was boring, then I listened to it all the way through, and I really love it now. It sounds so sad.

Suna no Ue no Dolphin--Once again, boring. Boring enough to put me to sleep. But then I continued to listen to it and I realized it sounded like "Call The Man" by Celine Dion. That's when it became beautiful. Also, it reminds me of lay Sunday afternoons, Ecco the Dolphin (does he even do anything?), and Ecco the Dolphin on GameCube (if such a game exists; I think there's a 3-D Ecco somewhere. Also, the Gamecube's code name was Dolphin)

Shylpeed--When I listened to the samples at CD Japan, it sounded chaotic, which put me off. But then I found out how beautiful it was when I listened to the whole song, and saw the music video from Own Write.

Blue Velvet--I was put off by the sample at CD Japan, and someone saying that song was just echoes. I had to listen to the song several times, but now it's quickly growing on me.
 
progressive: i disliked everything about it. but when i heard the dvd live version, i enjoyed the addition of the bass guitar on the long notes. i'm okay with the song now :XD:
 
I forgot one: Canta Per Me, Japanese version--Houko Kuwashima sounded too young and timid for my taste in this song, and made it sound loli. But I came to love this song because I love Houko Kuwashima so much. Now it's the only version I like.
 
Hmm, Yuki music I didn't like initially but did later, hmm…
I can only think of ARIA (well, now I LOVE it :XD: ) and Hitomi no Kakera (I'm not too big on slow(er) beat songs even now, but it's grown on me).

I also didn't like the Japanese ver. of canta per me at first. I don't know why, but now I like it very much. And the fact that I've love Kuwashima Hoko's singing and voice for such a long time. :ohoho:

Yeah, but that's cuz she's singing as Kirika (she IS the seiyu for that, right?) hence the timidness.

As much as I like Wakana's voice and personality, when it comes to Mizu no Akashi, I actually prefer the original Rie Tanaka version. Rie, singing as Lucas Clyne, really packs a lot of emotion in it in ways that I find lacking in Wakana's version. I don't mind Wakana's version at all. I'm just hoping at some point she actually puts more feeling into it, like the way Keiko and Kaori sing anything - you can really feel the enthusiasm or feeling.
 
the whole Boogiepop and Others Image Album: the first time i listened to it it was "not my kind"

Same here. :XD: Now I have come tol ike it a lot.
Come to think of it, many songs in first See-Saw albums, Saeko's "Melody" (unlike "Everything" where I liked everything (lol) from the start), Double Cast, Elemental Gelade, Achilles to Kame and even Xenosaga 3 never got my proper attention at first. And Blood - The Last Vampire hasn't still grown on me yet (though I like the upbeat "In the Church").
Nowadays I just put the whole bunch of Yuki's music on shuffle while on the road, it is enjoyable and interesting to guess:"Ah, this song... and this one actually sounds better than the first time I heard it... hm? whee is this one from? weee how could I miss it!"

As for Canta Per Me, I must admit that I love the Fiction version most of all (gomen, Yuriko-san :omg: :cry: ). IMHO it's the most powerful rendering.

Yeah, but that's cuz she's singing as Kirika (she IS the seiyu for that, right?) hence the timidness.

Yep, Houko also sang Yuki's "Shinkai no Kodoku", without a trace of loliness. (ooh boy, I adore that song :nosebleed: )

if such a game exists; I think there's a 3-D Ecco somewhere.

*offtop time :tea: * Ecco the Dolphin: Defender of the Future was released for PS2/DreamCast, but no GameCube in sight. Tht puzzles me, too, I often heard about an Ecco game on GC. :huh?:
 
tsuki no curse~
i thought it was really annoying at first but thats because of the original vocalist >_<
i really love kaori hikita's version :sohappy:
 
Re:

I think i'm really indifferent to most of Yuki's songs when i listen to them for the first time. And then it takes some time to like them (and it's sometimes boring XD). But once i begin to like them, i really love them like CRAZYY CRAZY 8D >D

hmm but there are some songs which i had a lot of difficulties to like
like sprinter and progressive
I think listening to their instrumental versions helped me to like them >D
because it gives me a another way to listen to the them.

:shy: yep, her version is way better. And KaOda's michiyuki doesn't have the same feeling than KaoHi's.

i'd love to hear KaoHi will get a new album full produced by Kaji-sama :nosebleed: there's no harm in asking :dreams:
 
Hmmm the whole seventh heaven disappointed me when I first got it. I was like WTF?! I wanted sprinter part II!! Same with progressive...its like a part of me desperately wants a sequel just as magnificient as oblivious and sprinter. Its one of my favorite albums but especially seventh heaven

Everlasting song and yume no tsubasa are bearble. I love the live versions I couldn't stand the Everlasting song bgm it was awful. Zodiacal sign scared me so I ignored it for a while till I realized how wonderful it becomes after the first part.

Most of Yuuka's songs were generic at first but I like them now.
