Macross - Music discussion (Part 1, pre-Delta)

[Urei]

Didn't OST 1 break the anime OST sale record? Wasn't it the first anime OST to get to top charts in a good couple of years?

They would be silly not to release a 3rd ost... people want Aimo by Maaya, Don't Be Late Remix, Diamond Crevasse 50/50 and they can always put Lion on there and non stage versions of Welcome to my Fanclub Night and What bout my star.

I want Infinity duet damnit!

[Minari]

Here's the full version to Sheryl's Yousei.

It's probably my favorite Macross Song atm.

[Dansen]

Since it's over, I'm going to rank the Macross vocal songs (from best to worst)

1. Diamond Crevasse
2. Do You Remember Love?
3. Lion
4. Seikan Hikou
5. Ao no Ether (tied with Yousei)
6. Yousei (tied with Ao no Ether)
7. What bout my star? (Ranka)
8. Aimo ~Tori no Hito (I used to really like it, but I've gotten tired of hearing it so much)
9. Infinity
10. Don't be Late
11. Northern Cross
12. Anata no Oto
13. Triangler (Sheryl and Ranka's)
14. My Boyfriend is a Pilot
15. Neko Nikki
16. Welcome to my Fanclubs Night
---------------------------------This is the line for songs I actually like/songs I don't
17. Triangler (Maaya's)
18. Diamond Crevasse 50/50 (I like the arrangement a lot, just not the vocals)
19. What bout my star (Sheryl)

Anyways, I'm pretty sure this list could change around...but Diamond Crevasse will always be at the top

[rei_lied]

I agree! Diamond Crevasse is the best Macross Frontier song ever! I was really dumbfounded when I first heard that song and it has become by favorite since then.

here's my top 5:

1. Diamond Crevasse
2. Northern Cross
3. Yousei
4. Lion
5. Do You Remember Love? (episode 24 version)

can't wait to get my hands on the OST II.

[wolfboy]

This isn't gonna turn into a ranking thread is it...?

[nanatsusaya]

My list :

Really, truly love
1. Diamond Crevasse - Sheryl ('nuff said )
2. Aimo - Ranshe/Sheryl (if there's one )
3. Northern Cross - Sheryl
4. Yousei - Sheryl
5. Welcome to my Fanclubs Night - Sheryl


Really like:
6. Do You Remember Love? ~ bless the little queen - Ranka (This is the best song of Ranka IMO, with much more emotions than Aimo and vocal closest to Megumi's real voice, however I think it's also well played in the Sheryl scene)
7. Aimo O.C - Ranka (yeah i like this better than her normal, uninteresting Aimo )
8. Ao no Ether - Ranka (took a while to get use to otherwise it's a touching song)
9. Infinity - Sheryl
10. Neko Nikki - Ranka
11. Ninjin loves you Yeah! - Ranka

Think it's so-so :
12. Diamond Crevasse 50/50 - Sheryl vs Ranka
13. Lion - Sheryl vs Ranka
14. Aimo ~Tori no Hito (the lack of feelings kind of ruin it for me after hearing it about 20 times )
15. Don't be Late
16. Seikan Hikou

Don't like, don't care :
17. What bout my star?(Ranka)
18.What bout my star (Sheryl)
19. What bout my star (Sheryl vs Ranka)
20. Anata no Oto - Ranka
21. Triangler - Maaya
22. My Boyfriend is a Pilot - Ranka

[kilroy0097]

Although in Episode 25 the lead in using What bout my star (Sheryl vs Ranka) that then turns into the middle part of Lion - Sheryl vs Ranka (Lion is the OP right?) was pretty kick ass. My favorite part of that mixture of songs in that episode. It's just as Alto blasts off with Mikhail's gun to go kick some ass.

[Zirdante]

The song I really wanna hear in OST2 is the 'Panty chase scene song'

http://jp.youtube.com/watch?v=bcHr3ZrDhdM starts from 5:48

[Tabris]

God, I can't wait for OST2 to come out. My only regret is that I won't be in Japan and can't pick up any freebies on the day of release of the next CD.

[Westlo]

Personally I'll wait for OST before I rank the songs. Anyway latest sales figures.

Single Top 150:
54 *,104,239 ***,696 ダイアモンド クレバス/射手座☆午後九時Don't be late / シェリル・ノーム starring May'n 08/05/08
57 *,*94,735 **4,143 ライオン / May'n/中島愛 08/08/20
77 *,*79,844 **1,021 星間飛行 / ランカ・リー＝中島愛 08/06/25

Album Top 150:
53 *,166,542 **2,001 マクロスＦ(フロンティア)O.S.T.1「娘フロ。」 / 菅野よう子 08/06/04

[Jazzrat]

It's Macross, many many chances of releasing plenty of OST. Afterall, songs are as essential to the series as veritech fighters and love triangle are to the series.


and oh, i want those full versions of ranka x sheryl duets in the last episode. They are very very nice.
and last but not least, Sheryl on Starship Brothers! That one is awesome.

It's going to be on ost 2 and it's called Nyan Nyan Service Medley

[rei_lied]

I was thinking... they should have changed the title of that song. It's way too awesome just to be called Nyan Nyan Service Medley

[Jazzrat]

Yes tis' the one! I'm very impressed by the flexibility of her singing.

Just thought i share this interview of Kawamori and Y. Kanno on their thoughts of the songs in MF.
