Oh no...
I truly have no idea why I forgot Teiku 5, Forsaken. That's like in the top 5. You don't even need to understand the lyrics to truly feel the peace and calm this song radiates. It sounds like a song Lady Gaga would make - before she even started releasing music. But it would be an injustice to even begin to compare this song to the work of Lady Gaga. Take 5 just has SO much more emotion, it's so much more delicate yet raw, and it is so atmospheric and free. I want to embrace death like this song does, I want to be as clear as the sky. Utada says so much with this song.
Man.
I'm upset with myself, cause I totally forgot Take 5. Hopefully its just because I haven't listened to it in awhile. Thank you for reminding me Forsaken! And thank you so much for reading my 'essay'! I thought nobody read it because it was so long. It makes me happy that we share similar thoughts about music!

It's always been a tricky one for me with Kairo. There are so many great ideas in the song: I love the sweeping melody of her vocals, and the string progression in the beginning of the song.... but I've always felt that the song is just so... random! I can't find the focus. It goes to one part, and another part, and then another part. And then it repeats, but adds a lot more instruments and change.

But then I don't know. I'm listening to it now, and I feel like I'm on a boat, speeding through the oceans, wind in my hair, and large snow tipped mountains in the background.
I wish it was longer, and I understood the lyrics. I think there's more to this song than I give it credit for... maybe it's because I'm the type of person who requires stability and repeating ideas in songs (and I guess in life too xD)

Aw, thank you about the writing comment. I just might post more. :)

Thanks for making my day Forsaken! :) (sorry for the long reply)
