Apparently people have gotten their singles like.. a week early (o_o) and have very kindly released them on the internet so I have heard the entire single and so now, I will write my review on this single ^^
Believe - I love this song so much. In my opinion, it's a very good song, it's up-beat and I don't realy know what the lyrics are or what the song means but it really raises up my energy and just wakes me up. If I had to use one word to describe this song it would be cool, take that word in whatever way you want. It really is a cool song, I mean the style is sort of... low yet fast and it's not really "happy" but it's not "depressing" either. I mean the song is called "Believe" so I can just guess it's about believing. I think it's a fitting song for a superhero - I can imagine it coming into play right when Sho starts kicking some bad-guy ass xD
Kumori Nochi, Kaisei - At first, I didn't like this song. I really didn't. I didn't like the style... and kill me if you want, but I didn't like how Ohno sounded. I thought the song was too up-beat for Ohno to be singing solo, but, after watching the PV I fell in love with this song. It brings a smile to my face, it's cute. It's up-beat in a ... mellow-ish sort of way as in, it's not out right happy crack like "Happiness" or like the 3rd song in the Truth single "Smile" but it's definitly a happy song. I think, in the end, it does suit Ohno, because he really is a mellow guy. Oh. but.. um.. I have to mention a few things about the lyrics. "Lan Lan Lang?" and "Ran Ran Rang" etc. etc... what language is this? English? Japanese? o_o
Tobira - Um.. I listened to this once. ^^'' It's a nice song, but I'm not really thinking of keeping it on my "Arashi playlist". I mean, if it appears you know, it sounds good but I don't think it's very memorable. Like. You know, it's a good closing to a good single but aside from that it's just... it's not memorable. *shrugs* Should I call it bland? I mean, it's the standard "Arashi" song... like, it sounds like Arashi, it is Arashi but it's nothing "special" is what I'm saying. Understand? No? Well.. too bad =D
Overall mark - 4/5
I like the songs a lot but not to an obsessive sort of point. It's good. "Believe" and "Kumori Nochi, Kaisei" are good songs and I think it's a great start to Arashi's year and they're really putting up a high bar for the next singles to come out but it's not yet beating Truth or even Beautiful Days (I like Beautiful days A LOT xD)
