Yume Oibito (Piano Version) (Instrumental)
1. Yume Oibito
Dang, KOKIA really likes her ballads huh? I mean in recent times her ballads have been oddly very boring despite KOKIA’s amazing vocals. Yume Oibito it’s like the other ballad A-sides she’s released so far in the era which is not a good sign IMHO. I’m just overall not impressed here.
2. Yume Oibito (Piano Version)
Just to add salt to the already existing wound, she puts out a piano-only version of the song and I’m even further bored by it. I mean yeah the vocals are pretty great, but it just doesn’t seem like it makes up for the bored and tired arrangement.
While I think KOKIA is a great singer and all, her singles as of lately have been mostly disappointments and makes me wonder how well she’ll do with an album of these. Yume Oibito is just too plain for me…it’s like “Memorial days” but less because it has an even more boring piano version of it. Girl, needs to pick up the slack badly!
