Nah. The violin MADE Onaji Yoru. The whole grating sound with whiny SR and the whiny violin was terrific.

I neither hate nor like the album.
The album is fine, but just not the standard of Shiina Ringo.
I hate Saito Neko because of his repeatedly boring, self-amused, so called creative arrangements and disordered live performance (I like the violin in KZK Meisai, but that's it). Seriously I dont know what he was doing in Baishou Meisai. No offense but looked like a retard playing violin.

The reasons are pretty much the same with why I hate Ukistrumo.
(I like the solo in Shuraba and Tegami, and that's it)

EM version of Meisai = Where's the violin?
HF version of Meisai = Whoa! Too much violin!
KSK version of Meisai = Ah, yeah... *lights cigarette*

Very true too! Screechy SR + Screechy violin entangled in their passion --> first song I actually got and LOVED on MM.

sorry double post

[Maou]

I'm not even gonna bother with this. I can understand Onaji Yoru, but Meisai? There's no way the studio is better than Phase 1. No way, no how. Hell, no studio KSK song is better than the Phase 1 versions.

[merman]

Yeah because it's the worst one of the first three, we've heard that

[Maou]

Yeah because it's the greatest thing ever created, we've heard that

[ShinjiPG]

So EM is the greatest thing ever created?
I'm not choosing sides, just following some kind of logic.
Actually, nevermind, old discussion.

Odaiji ni? Seriously? Like with Onaji Yoru and Neko's crazed violin, the weirdo guitar effect and its contrast with the underlying overly sweet pop ballad would seem to be *the whole point* of the song, and without that, it's nothing but an overly sweet pop ballad.
