What do you guys think of the songs? I'm not happy about what they did to Otome no Policy ^^; For the most part I enjoy the original versions better, so I'm not sure if I'll be getting any of these songs.
Anyone like any of them?

I agree with you. Overall I prefer the originals as well =[ The one that bothers me the most is Ai no Senshi. Why is there a male voice in this song? It makes me sad and I just personally do not like it. The whole remake for Ai no Senshi just doesn't seem to work with what I perceive to be the feeling behind the lyrics =[
I am curious about the La Soldier remake though. It sounded kind of rock-ish? But it seemed to have a strength in the way it was sung that, to me, speaks true for La Soldier.

I really liked Ai No Senshi and La Soldier. The rest was a little meh, especially MCZ songs. I just can't seem to like them =(

I was curious to know people's opinions about this tribute album. Have you bought or plan to buy this album? What are you thoughts on the songs in this album? More information about this album can be found here You can listen to snippets of the songs below:
From the previews of the tracks they aren't that spectacular compared to the original, in my opinion, but what sold me is the gorgeous album cover and the limited edition sticker that one receives if bought from a participating retailer. I ordered my copy two days ago and I'll be receiving it later today.

Best songs: Tuxedo Mirage (done by Momoclo), La Soldier, and Ai no Senshi (i didn't like it at first but now i've listened to the full version AH LOVE IT NOW).
Actually i LOVE the entire new album. I think anyone who isn't used to modern japanese pop isn't going to like this that much.
Momoclo's recorded Moonlight Densetsu is AWESOME. Best versoin I've heard of it yet. They were more spot on with the vocals compared to their live versions.
Yeah I can't wait until I get mine in the mail.
And YAY a versoin of Kaze mo Sora mo Kitto that i can enjoy. Otome no Policy has grown on me too.

I thought Otome No Policy was just WAAAAY too weird, you know? My favorite ones were La Soldier and Ai No Senshi. HEART MOVING was also so cute *-*

Merged it now. Haha sorry. I honestly can't stop listening to the songs i really like them. I think hte ONLY beef I have is that La Soldier doesn't have the wolf howl. That song would be 20% cooler with wolf howling.

Moonlight Densetsu - Momoiro Clover Z
La Soldier - Tommy Heavenly6
Ai no Senshi - Mariko Goto x Avu-chan (of the band Ziyoou-vachi)
Yeah these are my favs.

I actually like Ai No Senshi the most right now. I think the contrast between the female and male vocals are great. Momoiro Clover Z actually surprised me with their renditions of these songs. I personally don't like J-pop and since Momoiro seems to be a really popular girl group in Japan I thought that I wouldn't like their covers but surprisingly I do. When I first heard these covers I thought they weren't that good but as you keep listening they do grow on you.

Yeah, I didn't like Otome no Policy at first or Ai No Senshi. It also helps to listen to the full songs. I liked Otome no Policy better after I heard the entire thing rather than the sample.

I actually did like Otome no Policy when first hearing the sample since it was a little more down tempo than the original. I personally don't like the original. LOL You're right though listening to the entire song helps.

I LOOOOOOOVE THIS ALBUM. I almost splurged just to buy it even though I knew someone would post it online but I just love it so so much <3 I agree with what everyone said about Otome No Policy and Sailor Star Song but that's just from the samples, I can't WAIT to listen to the whole thing omgomgomg

Miss Dream already has it up for download (which i'm not going to go into how i feel about that...) and someone on youtube has it up (if you click on the user that posted the songs in the youtube videos i posted, you will find them all there).
I can't wait to get mine in. ^_^ Its totally worth the 30 something bucks after shipping. I think the album itself is around $25.

Never mind me, I'm just loving the French version of Moonlight Densetsu. (Not as much as the Japanese one with French music though)
My favorite version of Ai no Senshi is still the 2010 one by Yoko Ishida.

If anything the album cover and packing is just so sparkly *_* The limited edition sticker was worth it too. I also agree that Ishida's Ai No Senshi 2010 version is also great. LOL

I actually had to order my album online to get that sticker. My station has a Bunkyodo store but they didn't have the CD so I had to buy it online from them. My station also has an Animate (Haruka) and a Shinseido (Minako) store but since I wanted the Michiru sticker I didn't buy my CD from those stores. LOL

Roro, do you know if you preordered from sites like CDJapan if you'd get a sticker? I don't remember seeing it but i was in an "OMG GOTTA PREORDER IT NOW" frenzy so i didn't really read the description. xD I preordered mine about maybe 5 days before release?

Brit I don't think you'll be getting a sticker D: The only stores that offer the sticker are Tower Records, Tsutaya Recrods, HMV, WonderGoo, Shinseido, Yamano Music, Animate, Bunkyodo, Yodobashi and Gamers.
