ONE OF THE BEST OF THE 12GIRLS BAND

I CONSIDER THIS CD AN ESSENTIAL PURCHASE IF YOU ENJOY THE SOUNDS OF THE 12GIRLS BAND. THIS COUPLED WITH THEIR "LIVE FROM THE BUKODAN" PROVIDE A COMBINED COMPLETE SOUND COLLECTION...THEIR RENDITION OF "MY HEART WILL GO ON FROM "TITANIC"...ON THIS ALBUM WITH THE JAPANESE SONG "KAWANA GA NO YO NI" ON THE BUKODAN CD..WILL GIVE YOU THE ULTIMATE IN LISTENING PLEASURE AS BOTH SONGS ARE EXCLUSIVE TO EACH OF THE RECORDED TRACKS
ONLY ONE CRITICISM ABOUT THIS ALBUM IS IT IS TOO SHORT LOL...ONLY 14 TRACKS...2 SHORT OF THEIR NORMAL 16 ON OTHER CDSRead full review...

A different sound

Not cheap, but worth the cost.
