Okui Aki – 月の繭 (Tsuki no Mayu)

Turn A Gundam is probably my favourite Gundam, and a big part of it has to do with the second ending theme, a beautiful and emotive composition by Kanno Yoko performed by Okui Aki.

Kanno Yoko/Scott Matthew – Dear John


Watch this video on YouTube
Days of night slip through my mind
In a silent motionless sky
Paralyzed and motionless
All things falter
Somewhere back
I lost myself
So far deep inside of you
Everything’s become too much
So deep, so weak
Where did I go?Images of falling light
Move across the hollow sky
I see movement after all
Calling, falling
Remember you’re not the only one
To feel this way, ’cause I’m one
Who has also had enough
So long, dear John
I’m gonna go
Unironically one of my favourite rock songs of 2004.

A phenomenal cover of New Order’s Blue Monday with 1930s instruments.
The original un-colourised version was recently uploaded by the man behind the Orkestra Obsolete Angus McIntyre to his YouTube channel.

Rick Astley – Everlong

A music icon from my childhood meets another from early adulthood.
Everlong is probably one of my favourite songs. Rick covers it mostly straight. Great stuff, does it justice.
