Songs in My Head....

I'm sipping at Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex, rather than gulping it down whole the way I did Bleach's first couple of arcs. The complexity and depth and... well, the half-mysteries of the episodes require greater processing, each on their own.

But I watch most of the opening sequence, and the aria from the opening resounds in my head, just a couple of measures play like a loop through my head. When I'm alone in the sanctuary of our church, prepping for stuff or other things, I find myself singing it as the acoustics in that room are just glorious.

It's one of my favorite opening sequences ever, right up there with one of the Full Metal Alchemist ones. Hmm, maybe I'll go hunt it up on Youtube, in fact.

Mmmmmm... coolness.

*beams* Isn't that opening so beautiful? And the second season one is, too. I love listening to them back to back as imaginary battle music.

Yes. Very! :-)

Origa is Love... :-D

Yoko Kanno is probably one of the most gifted composers around right now - if she were doing symphonics, instead of commercial pieces, (and/or working more on American works than Japanese) she'd be horribly famous. As it is... wow.

(Doesn't like the music in GitS:SAC at all, no ma'am. Not one bit...).

It's good to share a love. :-)

Stand Along or Stand Alone? (Either has some delightfully weird imagery.)

Whups...

Stand Alone. *grin*
