It was actually close to being good, but it kinda felt flat in the end. I was expecting some big last chorus or interesting transition, something for the instrumental hype of the song to build up to, but got no release.

In other words, two layers of lossy compression. Why not go straight from MP3 to FLAC?

Anyway, song is fine. A bit generic but there's a nice message in there to herself about not numberfagging so hard. Not a fan of EDM, especially moe EDM but I think a few people will like it.

Judging this purely as a fan of KIRA's works, I have to say definitely not one of his best but it's still a great piece.
As for Kiara, it can only do her good, it's a change of pace from the other original songs, it shows that if she can get a pro mixer on the job she can do a lot more than the typical moe idol-ish songs. However, depending on what the upcoming announcement actually is, this song might get hurt a little bit, but nothing major (on the Kiara's scale that is).

This sounds like some early generation Kpop music that was translated into English. I don't hate it but I won't listen to it again. I think Kiara should have hired a different person as a lyricist. Someone that isn't an ESL. A lot of it sounds awkward to the ears. It's a good thing that the music production made up for it. If they chose better lyrics, it would have sounded better

>> No.6176157

Agreed, the vocals should have been a bit louder but it’s competent otherwise. I wouldn’t bat an eyelash if I heard this on a western radio channel, but other than that it doesn’t really appeal to me.

KIRA's sound is so distinct thtlat I instantly knew it was one of his songs before I even looked at the MV. I like to listen to songs without watching the MV first and then listen to it ahain with the MV, I'm weird like that. But yeah, the sound is absolutely KIRA.

NTA, some people think her stuff is mediocre, some think it's the best thing since toilet paper, some think it's shittier than the worst parts of pre-wipe /b/. It's not really easy to have a "correct opinion" about music. I personally think her stuff is pretty good, far from the best though, and I could see why someone not liking it.

I like it. it's a real summer song for lack of better term. Nice and upbeat, pleasant all around, an enjoyable mood and flow throughout the whole thing, there's no part where it goes too hardcore or in your face... You could put this on the radio and nobody would know it's a Hololive song. Kiara's singing really works here.

This is the kind of thing you want to listen on a night out.
