AGM May 2009

It's not easy to make a music blog nowadays. I can't make or edit playlist from Imeem and the videos embed from Youtube were usually removed. That's why you will see that my playlist is not updated recently though I really want to do that.

Additionally, last month is generally not a month of Anime/Game music. The number of AGM singles and CD released is still normal but the problem is the lack of excellent song. You can see this thing through the silence in many other AGM music blogs.

Therefore, even when this monthly post doesn't only introduce new songs in the recent month, it's still hard to find enough 10 songs, so I just make a Top 5 to keep the quality high. You can also see some change in my music taste now, it tends to move towards the mainstream pop.

AGM TOP FIVE MAY 2009

1. Don't say "LAZY" - K-ON! ED
Artist: Toyasaki Aki & Hisaka Youko & Satou Satomi & Kotobuki Minako
Released Date: April 22, 2009

Is it somehow outdated to talk about this song now? Well, it was already very famous far before its release in April. However, I wasn't moved at first and it's just got into my playlist recently due to some change in my taste. Maybe when you are so tired with the tense work, you need some thing explosive and stimulating. This song is really rocking and catchy. But if you are an anti-cheering girl song listener and never watched K-ON!, you must be looser to enjoy it.

2. USO (Lie)- Fullmetal Alchelmist Brotherhood ED
Artist: SID
Released Date: April 29, 2009

A model Pop Shounen. I don't approve of the way it ends at the chorus, but it can be spared by many other good points. Once you get acquainted with the music, you will hear it play repeatedly in your head.

3. Falling down - Eden of the East OP
Artist: Oasis
Released Date: May 27, 2009

Nothing much to say about a song that has reached #10 in UK chart. It's really a strange and stylish song, with the heavily compressed drum-rhythm and the psychedelic feeling.

4. Julius - Sora wo Kakeru Shoujo
Artist: Ceui
Released Date: May 13, 2009

Ceui brings us 4 new songs in this month, and in my opinion this windy ballad is the best. Her music style hasn't changed at all, it may make some boredom, but anyway this song is purely relaxing and pleasure to hear.

5. Again - Fullmetal Alchelmist Brotherhood OP
Artist: YUI
Released Date: June 3rd, 2009

Yui's song is always welcomed by many ones. This song is also nice and energetic, with a good guitar playing, but as many other songs from hers, it must take a time to get it in your head.
