Suggested by: Ilistentoeverything
Expectations: Again, not an idea. I guess if you're into videogames or Japanese movies you would know her work, but I don't. Nevertheless, after scoring a direct hit on his first shot, I'm excited to see what ilistentoeverything has for me next.
Beautiful soft piano opening, then the vocal is soft, slightly operatic, with another vocal singing three words: “Winter, summer, converging” which merges really well with the main vocal. Lovely cello now, a real stark fragile beauty about this piece. Sweet descending scale on the violin. I think there's a third voice joining now, as the music becomes a little discordant towards the end, almost all vocals falling away now bar the three-word one as violins take over for the final minute. Gorgeous.
Conclusion: Two out of two so far! Another top rated piece.
So, Love or Hate? And another
True Love.
