5.0 out of 5 stars More than surprisingly good..., November 18, 2002

This review is from: Sailor Moon: Full Moon Collection (Audio CD)

I wasn't expecting too much from this since it's mostly remixes and previously released tracks that can be found on "Music From The Hit TV Series" and "LunaRock", but a lot of the remixes are good and it's great to hear the classic tracks.

But what makes this such a great CD is that the are hidden tracks of the original score of dubbed series on here as well! The original score tracks are as follows:

*Pan Flute (aka Alan's Flute)
*Moon Crystal Power
*Tiara Action
*Receiving Waves, Part 3
*Tuxedo Mask
*Luna
*Sailor Jupiter (one of the fight themes)
*Melvin
*Queen Beryl

So if you ever wanted some of the unforgettable background music from the Sailor Moon dub, this is definately the CD for you.

1. Pan Flute [Alan's flute from the R season]

2. Sailor Moon Theme (S.A.F. Remix) [A great remix of the English opening song! This song and it's counterpart at the end of the cd are worth you purchasing the whole cd! Very well edited and I guarentee they will get the most replaying with your stereo at full volume on any of your Sailormoon cds!]

3. I'm Not Ready [I have no idea where this song comes from. It looks like it was produced just for this cd and it's honestly not bad. It has a certain JPop feel to it and it is refreshing to hear a new English Sailor Moon song after all this time.]

4. My Only Love (S.A.F. Remix) [I think most people will agree with me that it was the original version of this song that made most of us ask ourselves if there was a Sailor Moon soundtrack as soon as we heard this in Crystal Clear Destiny. Definitly on par with the two Opening Theme remixes.]

5. I Want Someone to Love [Another pretty cool and appropriate new song for the Sailor Moon series.]

6. I Want to Hold Your Hand (Hi-NRG Mix) The original version of the Sailor Moon version of this classic song originally sang by John Lennon and Paul McCartney has been on another Sailor Moon cd release. I'm still not sure what this song is doing on a Sailor Moon soundtrack. It is sung by the gal who sang the other DiC songs though such as My Only Love.]

7. Moon Crystal Power [The instrumental track for when Serena transforms! I always did love this music. Can't wait to see the fan dubbers go crazy when they hear this track! Supperb quality!.]

8. Call My Name (And I'll Be There) [A much clearer version of the original. Pretty much the same though.]

9. Tiara Action [The Instrumental track for when Sailor Moon throws her Tiara! Interesting to notice that the track is named after the Japanese terminology for the attack move.]

10. I Wanna Be a Star [No Comment ;) ]

11. Receiving Waves, Part 3 [Funky music that seems to play every time a villian is promoting a Nega-product in the show or the girls are going shopping etc...]

12. The Power of Love [Much clearer version of the previously released song.]

13. Tuxedo Mask [It goes for a whole of 10 seconds! I wanted the slow guitar love theme from the dubb but we just get the Tuxedo Mask sound effect with a one cord strum on the guitar. "Not happy Jan!"]

14. Rainy Day Man [Yup. It's a clearer version of a previously released song but it's a goody!]

15. Luna [The famous Luna theme plus some cool atmospheric intro music! Not very long but it's all there!]

16. Nothing at All [Another rerelease albiet much clearer]

17. Sailor Jupiter [That great action piece that plays everytime the Inners attack someone! A MUST for fan dubbers!]

18. It's a New day [Feels great listening to this towards the end of the disk. Rounds it off nicely even if it is a rerelease. As with the others it's much clearer this time around.]

19. Melvin [We all know this theme! Classic! Great to see it here!]

20. Sailor Moon Theme (S.A.F.Club Mix) [A longer and more technical version of the excellent 2nd track! I love these remixes!!!]

21. Queen Beryl [The biggest revelation of the cd came with this track. I had no idea how complex this Negaverse background music was! There's so much going on! Great!]

4.0 out of 5 stars Should have been released in 1995/1996!!!, March 11, 2003

This review is from: Sailor Moon: Full Moon Collection (Audio CD)

I first discovered Sailor Moon in 1995 while living in France, and was immediately hooked despite being able to see only three or four episodes. When the Sailor Moon series was released in North America that fall, I was one of those "moonies" who got up to watch Sailor Moon at 5:30AM, and I immediately recognized that the initial attraction I had felt for the series when in France had only grown.

Unfortunately, the Sailor Moon series did not fare well in the States, in large part due to marketing to the wrong target audience in relation to when the series was shown in many media markets. However, if Sailor Moon: The Full Moon Collection had been made available around the time the series initially came to North America, the ratings could possibly have been better.

There have been two previous Sailor Moon CDs released Stateside with music from the English-language version of the series. The first half of The Full Moon Collection contains excellent remixes of many of those songs. "Sailor Moon Theme (S.A.F. Remix)" is particularly fun and powerful, with the deeper, more prominent bass line adding a somewhat dark and harsh edge to the English-language lyrics. "I Want to Hold Your Hand (Hi-NRG Mix)" is also intriguing in a Kylie-Minogueish way.

Unfortunately, those who have already bought both of the previous Americanized Sailor Moon CDs will find little new in the second half of The Full Moon Collection, as many of the songs from the previous two CDs are included here. However, the entire CD has short instrumental pieces scattered about, beginning with "Pan Flue" (Alan's signature tune from The Doom Tree Arc of the series), "Moon Crystal Power" (Sailor Moon's transformation music), "Tiara Action" (her "Moon Tiara Magic!" battle sequence music), Tuxedo Mask's standard entry sound clip, and others. Many of these short instrumental clips were personal favorites, and it is definitely nice to finally have them "alone" and out of context of the series.

Finally, The Full Moon Collection includes screensaver software for Macintosh and PC. I can only address the Macintosh version (OS7.2-9.x), which uses a control panel and a standalone Macromedia Director application. The screensaver primarily includes images from the first two seasons of the Sailor Moon series, i.e. the DiC dub shown in 1995 and 1996 in North America.

Diehard Sailor Moon fans will definitely want to get The Full Moon Collection for its new remixes, short instrumentals, and screensaver. However, the inclusion of so many "repeat" songs from previous North American Sailor Moon CDs is why I cannot rate this CD any higher.
