Yuki Kajiura, Circus

I finally decided to write something about Circus, it’s been released for a while but I didn’t have much time to listen to it.

This Kajiura album is a FictionJunction Yuuka album, which means that Nanri Yuuka is the main singer .
The two had previously known each other from their involvement in an all Female Opera troupe, the Minami Aoyama Shoujo Kagekidan.

They are the first group in the history of the Oricon charts to reach number one in the daily charts with an anime single, “Honoo no Tobira” (Door of Flames) and “Akatsuki no Kuruma” is their most best-selling single.

Circus is more a compilation of previously-released- singles than a real album, and since there are only 6 new songs I will not put them all here, only my two favorites.

It was ranked number 6 on the Oricon chart when released.


Is “Angel Gate” from Kajiura’s musicla of the same name?
I like “Rokugatsu ha Kimi no Eien” because it’s a sad song, I have some weakness for sad songs…
“Circus”, more joyful is also a good track.

I also like “Piano”, which reminds me of some Tori Amos song.

The artwork is terrible. There are two covers, and both are bad.

They used the same background than on Madonna’s Girlie show program!
