I'm really loving TIME

[karened]

Thanks to Tess-chan, I managed to d/l two more songs from TIME!! I'm so glad I've decided to stay awake a while more.

Cry For You is darn nice. It's soooo different from all the other songs heard so far. Very...unique! Like there's some element of rock, some techno...ahhhhh I like this a lot!!! It's quite different from what I've heard from Arashi so far, yet...still them. argh I'm not making sense am I?

And then, the full version of Life. I was quite curious about this song because the short short version on Shobeat sounded pretty good. And hehe Nino was kind enough to play the entire thing!! Something more on the simple side, as compared to the other fast-paced songs we've heard...something I can imagine to be the "ganbatte" kind of song. The kind you want to hear when you need encouragement. But, actually, I'd have liked it more if there wasn't a rap inside...the short rap by Sho...was it necessary? Sounded a bit awkward to me.

And I've finally gotten down to listening to another song I d/led earlier...Be With You..a ballad...ah...finally a ballad....the introduction to the song was so..sweet...and the melody was nice too..very simple arrangement, yet it draws up an image of bittersweet, simple love. =)

I really feel that TIME is gonna be great. I know some people were hoping for something more adventurous from them...and stuff like that. But, this is the near-perfect album for me. Near-perfect because I'm sure they will progress and improve when they release their next album. It'll never be perfect, because there's new goals to reach. I've not listened to all of the songs on the other albums =X so I can't compare TIME to its predecessors. But the songs inside. I really like the flavour of the album. As compared to the other albums, where there are quite a few songs that I only start tolove after watching them being performed live in concerts, I'm already loving many of the songs in TIME. I'm so happy. I love this album...and a BIG thanks to all those who've uploaded the radio rips. You guys are great, as always.

And to those who want a big surprise when their copy arrives, and listen to them all at one go, it's ok. Because you'll be really exploding with happiness when the moment comes. Bear with it a bit more ne...*winks at Tery*
