User blog:SingMeloetta/SingMeloetta Reviews: First Color Pink!

Hello everybody! The first true insert album of the series has finally been released, and, as always, I'm here to give my opinions on it.

The Scene above 6M
This is honestly a lot better than I expected. With the way the op/ed album went I fully expected this song to be one of those that was basically just the chorus over and over again with no variation (especially since the chorus has been highlighted over and over again as the high point of the song) so I was really surpised to hear the bridge beat. But of course, this song isn't perfect, and it leaves just a little bit more to be desired. Over all, it's alright.

Identity
I'm listening to the full version the first time as I'm doing the review because I'm not going to lie, this song was one that really had to grow on me at first, mostly because it just didn't "feel" right. I'd watch the insert performances, but it just wasn't something I'd be playing constantly. That brief piano right after where the short version cuts out is interesting, and I wish they did more with it. Somehow in the second chorus there's more of a hip-hop beat, which actually seems to be a reccurring motif with this album. Oh my gosh, the harmony's at certain parts are really nice to here, as it's pretty rare we get to hear anyone use their lower range, especially if their name wasn't Remi and they weren't Yurika-ing. Other than that, it's pretty much the same thing we heard in the short version, but it's still worth a listen (I don't get the dog thing though)

Overflowing With Love
Although it's the newest song on the album and got released unfairly quickly, This was my most anticipated song for Pink. Why? Because as some of you may know, I am a HUGE sucker for princess/royal idols, especially if said idols get to sing ballads. We haven't had a real ballad type in such a long time, so this was a treat to get one so early on in this series. That being said, there's so much more to be desired with this song. A small a capella section would've been nice, maybe an elongated note or two, and I was kind of dissapointed that yet again they missed out on a perfect oppurtunity for a key change. Still Karen's voice is stunning, I love this song, and it's still my favorite on the album.

My Ranking: 1. Overfloiwing with Love 2. Identity 3. 6M
