She's pretty cool. Very pretty. I am currently addicted to 'A Little Pain', love the music video for it too. She's got a really nice voice  |

I really like the single! It's actually a mini-album, but thank you for contributing this! It's also up at nana-nana.net for download. I haven't finished downloading all of the tracks yet, but I can't wait to hear it! I'm especially excited for the English version of "Wish." Too bad she didn't do that for "a little pain" as well.
Olivia also had made some comments on her official site in regards to the mini-album. (And she wrote them in English!)

Happy New Years everyone!!! I'm am so excited that my new mini album will be released tomorrow!!...... and I'm so thankful to have this chance to get my music to you. Thank you fans for waiting!! I've decided to make the theme of my new album about something I've been struggling with the last couple years. It's about my brain and heart.
I can feel my heart when it's quiet, when my brain isn't speaking. This is where my art comes from.. creativity, originality, and spontaneity comes from here.... Children live in this world. I feel free here.
When my brain starts to take control over my life, then I can't hear my heart anymore cause of the loud noise of my thoughts. Of course, it helps me survive.. It's like a computer, that remembers, analyzes, compares, and calculates. It knows everything that happened one second ago/ the past, but it doesn't know now/ this moment. When I think, I am living yesterday today. I am not living in the moment. When this continues on and gets out of control, life becomes gloomy and painful..... I call this me 'The Cloudy Dreamer'.
I hope you enjoy my this album!!
Love,
Olivia |

OLIVIA has such a great voice. 
I love the new TRAPNEST album. <3
I feel she's more fit to be REIRA than Yuna Ito.  I don't know why. She just gives off the REIRA atmosphere to me, I can't really find that in Yuna Ito. |

^I agree on both fronts. The new album she has for the NANA anime is great. I'm really adore "Shadow of Love" and "Recorded Butterfly" It's great to finally have all her NANA songs all on one album.
And I also feel OLIVIA fits Reira more. It's hard to explain why I think that. But I guess it's 'coz I feel Yuna Ito has more of a pop flare in her music. TRAPNEST might be a mainstream band in the NANA world but their music doesn't come across as pop-ish. And I guess OLIVIA can relate to Reira a bit more ... |

| Olivia has that tragic aura around her which Yuna lacks. Probably because of her difficult past and her problems in her life which were an instant connection with the lonely character of Reira. Also her genre is rock so it comes natural to her. And the creator of the manga herself chose Olivia, so that must mean something. |

after I met OLIVIA, i thought she must be the best performer out there to portray Reira, not only in soundtrack but also in the NANA movies.
For many places they share amazing similarities that Yuna does not have.
I assume that the only reason Yuna got this role was because SONY wanted to make her a instant hit. |

Obviously after they lost their money tree (Ami Suzuki), they were aiming to form a new hit artist by giving her loads of tie-ins. So they chose Yuna. Seems it's working pretty well to be fair though Yuna's style is too poppish and doesn't fit the NANA theme as well as Olivia.
Anyhow after the NANA adventure I'm sure Olivia will have more chances to have more interesting tie-ins and who knows? She might get into acting  |

| Wow avex sure knows how to get NANA fans buy all the NANA-related merchandise. After two albums they release another album with almost the same material plus some new songs. |

^ HAHA yea Avex is kind of scary like that O.o
I can't help but think that they're trying to milk the NANA popularity as much as they can. |

Hi, really like Olivia's music. Only just got into her recently via youtube.
Does anyone know where I can buy the lost lolli if you live overseas? Amazon don't seem to stock it anymore.
Thanks |
