Haneari tamago (Love is Born 2006)
Others worthy of mentioning...

Planetarium (Love is Born 2008 taiwanese-japanese version)
So what do you guys think? |

You don't like jazz?
Two votes for Natsuzora (or however you spell it), guess I'm going to watch Love Is Born 2007 tonight!  |

^ I absolutely love Jazz!
Actually I'm studying Jazz music on my university...and that's why I don't like it...the chords she's playing sound really bad 
It's hard to explain....she is only using dominant chords, and dominant chords NEED to end into a tonic chord because dominants sound really tensioned.
But she doesn't conclude the dominant chord into a tonic chord
That's why I don't like it 
And yeah..I forgot that I also love that live version of Natsuzora |

Are you mixing classical with jazz? 
If you're talking about the cadence in which the dominant chord is the second to last before the ending tonic. I don't feel like this applies to jazz. Not to every style at least. And definitely not when rearranging a pop song leaving the melody untouched.
Maybe I just didn't fully understand what you were saying and I haven't done an analysis on the arrangement but I thought it sounded cool and different. Every song doesn't need to follow the theory of 'perfect music' or whatever
Do you think Ai would've performed it if she thought it sucked? She looked quite happy about it after the song. |

^Maybe she didn't knew it sucked
Nope..I'm not mixing it...I have no idea about classical...Do dominant chords exist in classical?  xD
What I meant is
tonic : Imaj7, III-7 and VI-7
dominant: V7
subdominant: II-7 and IVmaj7
a dominant must conclude on a tonic or subdominant chord to sound good...because everytime you hear a dominant its sound is always asking to move to other chord..it's too tensioned.
Well, the thing is that it doesn't sound good to me |

How about a basic chord progression of, in seventh chords, I-VI-II-V(*I actually like VII here) and repeat. Sure if you loop it and end it in tonic it's natural but.... 
Wouldn't it be boring if every song went like that? 
She might even be intentionally avoiding the natural ending. I'm not trying to say that you have to like it! |

^Yeah..it would be boring
But what I don't like isn't the progression itself...but the tensions she uses.
Other problems I see is that she is using a too low register, it would have sounded better if she played an octave higher, and was accompanied by a bass.
Every time you play tensions it sounds really smoother when there's a walking bass. |

Ok, we are on totally different levels here
I absolutely loved it when she hit that low chord. She even accentuated it.
I'm listening to Yumekui right now, can we agree this is a great song? 
I wonder if we scared everyone else off this thread |

^Well..my teacher has always told me not to play in those low registers...he gets mad every time I do it lol
He shouts "that notes are for the bass!!" lol
Lol yeah..I love Yumekui!!
Yeah...probably we scared everyone...but I wish we could talk more about this kind of things...this are the real things we should discuss not "Ai can't dance" or "Ai is in relationships with Su" |
