As for the poster's wife, that sucks really bad, but opera singers are only really in demand in certain European countries.

Each to their own. I will attest to the fact that they can't touch Lia though, she's amazing. |

Little Braver is definitely the weakest of the three albums, but Crow Song and Thousand Enemies (not as much) didn't disappoint at all.
either way, this anime still puts out more and higher quality songs than K-on. but yes, i would love Iwasawa to sing something else. her voice is miles better than Yui's.

As much as I would have loved for KitaEri to sing, she can't sing comfortably in Yui's range. I was in pain hearing her sing for nearly all the ToraDora songs, though crazy stuff like Koharu Biyori OP is fun. I think most people would wtf if Yui started singing and sounded like this or this.... OtaEri banzai! ヾ( ^o^)ノ゛ And about the Toyosaki Aki and Hikasa Yoko thing.... Toyosaki live is lol and Hikasa isn't that much better. She gets points for having a voice that's easier on the ears. But Toyosaki is kind of cute if you give her the right kind of song. Ah, the wonders of auto-tune technology.

However, I don't think the mediocre-at-times singing detracts too much from the songs themselves. Overall, I think most of the songs sound pretty good. Many rock bands succeed and become legends even with mediocre singing, because their songs are enjoyable nevertheless. Personally, as long as the singing is at an acceptable level, I tend to appreciate the instrumentals more. Furthermore, Jun Maeda did mention he was trying write songs that would fit a high school girls band - not all the way through professional but with some hints of amateurism. I don't know if the vocalist choices were deliberate with this aim in mind, but it does fit the theme of the band by picking out lesser known singers, even if their singing is slightly flawed. |

I personally have loved each and every Girls Dead Monster song. <3 Of the latest single, I REALLY love Answer song actually, though all of them are excellent, in my opinion... both Lissa and Marina have great voices. I'm not a music expert, but I like what I hear XDD;
I'm really impressed with this soundtrack.... |

So I've just read the translation for Little Braver Album....
Well...err..If I must say something...I was just...speechless I didn't know that the song really fit with Yui, and the meaning of the song was conveyed really well with the way she sings it. Just like when I listen to Shine Days, I was pretty touched when I (after reading the translation first) listen to it, and I can sense the energy that is coming from the song itself. It's the same with Little Braver, I also felt something like that. But it's more like the beginning of something bigger than when listening to Shine Days...I think about it like a prologue, Shine Days as the main part itself, and Answer song as an epilogue ;_; Answer Song...when I listen into it somehow I can see Iwasawa 'ghost' singing along together with Yui in the stage...and that made me cry a little Quote:

After reading through most of this thread I found I wasn't the only one who prefered the episode version of Crow song to the CD version. So I've edited Crow Song into a live version if you want to have a listen
