AGM June 2009


Last month is also not a month for excellent songs. Even though there are some songs that have become very popular like those of Scandal S or Sambomaster, I really can't put them in the playlist and it's sad to say that Suara's new single also let me down. So, after all, the top of this month turns out to be a cover anime song of HIMEKA from Chrono Crusade. It seems that my taste has melted down 'cause most of the other songs are ballad. Okay, now's this month's top 5 arrival in my AGM World:

AGM TOP FIVE JUNE 2009


1. Sayonara Solitaire (Farewell, Solitaire)- Chrono Crusade ED (cover)
Artist: HIMEKA
Released Date: May 27, 2009


The original version of this song of Saeko Chiba is already good, but this song is also addictive in another way. It's an awesome performance of HIMEKA's voice when the instrumental background is trivial. Her emotive voice suits this song amazingly and beautifully. So, no surprise when she became the winner of Anime Song Grand Prix with this song.

2. Manazashi (Gaze) - Higurashi no naku koro ni rei ED
Artist: anNina
Release Date: June 24, 2009


A slow, sad and profound ballad that can touch one's heart.


3. Sweet Sweet Time - Akane-iro ni Somaru Saka OP Single
Artist: Hashimoto Miyuki
Release Date: October 22, 2008


I sometimes surprise that the second track or B-side of many Anime OSTs is much better than the main one(Glass no Hana, for example). And this song is also in that case. A sweet and emotive song.

4. Music of Soul - Ragnarok Online Image Song Single
Artist: Sena
Release Date: June 3, 2009


This song starts very well but then it turns into an usual anime ballad.


5. Moon Passport - Basquash OP Single
Artist: Tomatsu Haruka & Nakajima Megumi & Hayami Saori
Release Date: May 29, 2009


Another example for "track 2" phenomenon, this song is good at some part but it's just so-so overall.

Most of the above songs haven't got video yet, so I make a playlist here, or you can listen to them in AGM Tracker playlist.
