**AMAZED**.......2004-09-29
With the backdrop of guitars & bouncy drum beats u'd think some1s voice would b drowned. On the contrary Hyde soars with passion & emotion above the instrumentation, unlike some of the other unpolished J-rockers making the scene. Iýd even consider his voice the best instrument. When Hyde projects (& boy, can he eva!!) he does so with a 4ce so deep it melts u right in2 moods of sadness, mystery, & love. Even if u have just discovered Hydeý upon 1st listen (try ýHorizoný hehe) u will realize what I mean quite quickly.
The 1st song I heard from him was actually an English 1. Honestly it left me no hints that he was a J-rock artist (ý stop laughing at me, my ýMoonchildý DVD came 2 me late lol). It's only after I viewed a picture (a stunning 1by the way hehe) that I realized his cultural background...
What does this tell u? Well possibly that he has an interesting ability, 1 that enables him 2morph himself in2 a front-man of a variety of musical genres.
This is indeed rare. No lieý I am very impressed & still canýt decide which is more amazing; his English or his Japanese? An even more difficult question, does he pull his weight better as a solo artist or an artist working amongst the others in his group?
Iýve put this CD on my top ten list b/c, not only is it superior in musical aspects but lyrical 1s as well. Hyde flawlessly touches down on subjects of inner struggle, freedom, God... things that draw u in & help u 2 think. This project as a whole is very much a celebration of wonder, truth, light, darkness & the human condition.
I might b new 2the world of Hyde & L'Arc-En-Ciel... but my appreciation is strong!
ýPut me in2 ur collectionýý No problem Hyde! I just canýt ýwatch from the sidelinesýý I have 2own all ur cds (ROENTGEN here I comeý Iým collecting backwards but oh well lol!)ý every1 else should2 ;o) Can u tell I love the song Masquerade ;oD

Very different from Roentgen..........2004-07-16
The DVD was a nice touch, especially for overseas fans who can't watch the PVs on TV. The only bad thing about the DVD is that it's region 2. Hello is a great, and Horizon scared the bejeezus out of me the first time I watched it. But both are worth a watch if you have the time and an region 2 DVD player.
