pearl -The Best Collection- Customer Reviews

The BEST japanese voice !!! Beautiful album, beautiful songs. Only one regret : I've not see his concert in Paris T_T

Excellent CD for new and old KOKIA fans alike. I was seeking the song Ai no Melody and picked this up, but as expected the whole CD is packed with great songs. It's a joy to listen to over and over.

The title of this album directly tells you the value of this item. As it says, this is The "Best" Collection of KOKIA's songs! I miss some good old songs from her 1st and 2nd albums, (they not included in this album) but this is a must buy album anyway. No words can describe the value of this gorgeous piece of album that KOKIA created!! JUST BUY IT NOW!

What can I say of this album? I think it gets the KOKIA feeling really well, with her most famous works and some special songs which I did not expect, such as Utau Hito. The new version for The power of smile and Yume ga chikara are simply treasures. And still, this compilation makes you want for more. This is the perfect gift, to surprise, fascinate and nurse your spirits.

The first best album released by KOKIA. Basically due to a lot of reasons, most songs are from albums since "Remember me", and it only includes one song each from "songbird" and "trip trip". From this perspective she (and her fan who only buy this album) missed a lot of best songs, but all songs in this album are awasome. This album not only included all the A-sides and those songs with promotion (aka tie-up), but also from her selection, just like "Watashi no taiyou" (M-6), "Utau hito" (M-10), "I believe ~Umi no soko kara~" (M-14). And the Eagles cover, "DESPERADO" (M-8) is a great yet rare song. Some of the songs are newly recorded to fit the atomsphere of this album, like "Yume ga chikara / Brave Warrior" (M-9), and "Arigatou ... (the pearl edition)" (M-15), which you can listen these songs from a different perspective. In general, this is an introductory album for new KOKIA fans (I think core fans will have their own selections...), and you can listen to her deeply by collecting other singles and albums.
