5.0 out of 5 stars i am falling...i am fading..., March 27, 2001

Kaspar Hauser (rural iniquity) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Twilight (Audio CD)

woooah, i own boa's 'race of a thousand camels' (same cd, different name, two less tracks) and absolutely LOOOOVE jasmine rodger's voice! sheesh, forget brittany and christina. you have to buy this cd and make boa the same sensation publically that they are privately!!! but more into the 'review' stuff. 'duvet' is an all time favorite, with a steady, beautiful beat and easilly understood lyrics. and if you like this song, you have to see 'serial experiments lain', the anime where 'duvet' was used as the opening. excellent video-ish intro. 'twilight' is beautifully haunting. 'fool' is one of the great songs that make you wanna get up and scream along with the music!!!!!! 'rain' is pretty and has a great guitar part, and the lyrics are just...***ah!***...reminicent of bad goth poetry but still good! 'elephant' is kind gospel-ish almost, but still a favorite, and gets the image of a nice walk with a good friend. oh, and, anyone out there a fan of gundam wing? the opening line sounds like something heero yuy should say...'if i was to hold one hand over my face now would you know me or would you see the other side of me'... 'scoring' is a great track, i even used the lyrics in a school report. the lyrics are excellently sang with all the passion you should've expected out of jasmine upon hearing 'duvet'! 'deeply' is a great lounge-ish song, excellent guitar and vocals, and just a fun song to sing along to!!! 'one day'...oo, get steve rodgers in on vocals. he proves to be nearly equal with his gifted sister. 'welcome' is an excellent, swirling tune. kind of an etherea-feel. 'for jasmine'...the tribute song deserved of such an ANGEL!!! 'anna marie', does better as a finale track (as on ROATC), but definitely the perfect get-up-with-your-maracas-and-dance song! 'duvet - acoustic' oh my gawd, i loooove this song. it's perfectly done, and if you've had a good day or a bad day, you turn this on and relax with a cup of tea and close your eyes and just let the strings do the work... 'little miss' a personal favorite, rockish tune with great lyrics and, in my opinion, a pretty cute ending... 'drinking' is kind of a mellow ending to such a masterpiece but belongs in here. it sounds like a 'thinking' piece, so you don't listen to it...you have to think about it, too. all in all, if you haven't bought this cd, your life is empty, whether or not you've actually noticed yet...you REALLY want this cd and you'll buy it NOW!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars You must listen! My fav album!, October 24, 2004

A Kid's Review

This review is from: Twilight (Audio CD)

You see. Almost everyone who knows bôa, really gets to know this band with the anime Serial Experiments Lain. It's because this anime's opening song Duvet is just simply catchy! You just cannot stop listening.
Is a real shame that only a few people know this band, but everybody who knows bôa, really never regrets of knowing this band, because (in my opinion) every single song is awesomely beautiful.
Yes, there are outstands, but the whole album is awesome if you desire a great rock band! They're about to release a new album called "Get there" and they really our help. Their work must be recognized!
1.Duvet -> This song is amazing, I love her voice, the instrumentals, you just can't stop singing the chorus, because it has something depressive, but touchy in it
2.Twilight -> This song has something about darkness, about love triangles, is a ballad that grows hard, like mostly all the bôa songs
3.Fool -> One of the hardest songs in the album, it talks about not fiting this world. I particularly fit myself with this song. Jasmine's voice just evolves this song from an apatic voice to an expressive yelling singing. Just wonderful!
4.Rain -> This music starts and it sounds like a smooth rain is falling. Just amazing how bôa can make this all feel into a music. The lyrics are so mysterious, I can't quite understand what it means. This mystery gives an extra touch to the song
5.Elephant -> As far, my favorite song! I just feel so great when I hear this song, it has a magic (helped by Jasmine's amazing voice) that wraps you! Just perfect.
6.Scoring -> This songs talk in an indirect way about husband's that abuses of their wives. I just love, how this songs greatly changes.
7.Deeply -> Oh, talk about love? Yes, please! This song feels like a girl pressing her boyfriend against the wall to discuss their relationships. It raises me up!
8.One day -> Steve's voice is amazing! But this is my least favorite song. But it's still great!
9.Welcome -> A reggae-jazz-like ballad! I just love the softness of this song and how Jasmine can really sing softly!
10.For Jasmine -> This has a jazzy mood in the start and gains some agressive hit through it's developing! "Don't you ever stop learning!" Great message!
11.Anna Maria -> This song has a sort of a beat that just makes you wanna dance! The instrumentals are wonderful and Jasmine is as always wonderful!
12.Duvet acoustic -> I just love this acoustic version. It is softer than the original and it got great solos!
13.Little miss -> Just another wonderful song that I can't explain. It has a jazz-mood-style, and then it changes to a hard-rock chorus!
14.Drinking -> A ballad about alcholism. It's simple and that makes it all great! You just can't stop singing "Oohh, you have so much more...ohhoho, where has your time gone?".

Resuming, you must have this album. Is quite a rare album, but it's worth to pay an expensive price for it! You will not be disapointed! Oh, you will be happy and greatful to have bought this album because it will simply touch in a way that you can't stop listening to it!
This album really has left me a mark.

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing, simply amazing, September 10, 2004

By 

Kangarew "Slackers Unite!!!! Tomorrow." (O'ahu) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Twilight (Audio CD)

This album is just that, "Amazing." All the songs ae beautifully done, Jasmine has an awesome voice and a load of talent. The songs are really deep and thoughtfull.

1. DUVET -10/10 - My second favorite on the album. Sweet melodie, good tempo, great, very touching lyrics and the opening to one of my favorite Anime, Serial Experiments Lain.
2. Twilight - 9/10 - Great title track of the album. This song always makes me think of The Cranberries, her voice and the way she sings is similar, but I think it's better, an awesome song with great lyrics
3. Fool - 8/10 - Similar to the previous song, only a little more upbeat on the corus and opening.
4. Rain - 7/10 - Very good and thought out, but still one of those songs that I can skip.
5. Elephant - 10/10 - My favorite on the CD. Extremely catchy and easy to get hooked on. Great Lyrics again, and awesome vocals on this one especially. This is one I like to play 2 or 3 times before going to the next song.
6. Scoring - 7/10 - probably my least favorite on the album, but still worth listening to, although I mainly skip it.
7. Deeply - 9/10 - Very cool! It is different than the other songs, also on Serial Experiments Lain. Great guitar intro and all the way through. I also like what Jasmine does with her voice in this song.
8. One Day - 10/10 - Great song. This is the one song that stands out, not for how good it is, which it is really good, but it is sung by Jasmine's brother, the guitarist, forget his name. He does have a good voice, something him and his sister share, and this also has great lyrics as well.
9. Welcome - 9/10 - Something slower now. A good song when your tired, or when you just want to relax. A nice, steady bass line and drum beat keep this a nice moody song.
10. For Jasmine - 8/10 - Ehh. It's good. Nothing special in my opinion. But it does have a good beat to it.
11. Anna Maria - 9/10 - This song is great. It's got a cool Mexican Guitar riff going throug it, which fits the title of the song, and nice subtle difficult drumming in it. A great song to "dance" to, you'll get the "dance" part when you hear it.
12. Duvet (Acoustic) - 10/10 - A longer, slower, calmer version of the first song. A great song, tied for second in my favorites for this album, tied with....you guessed it, the first Duvet. A great song to listen to when you just want to relax or to fall asleep to, I have.
13. Little Miss - 9/10 - I know I may sound repetative by now, but most of these songs deserve the same respect. All of them have Great music, vocals and lyrics, and this is no exception.
14. Drinking - 8/10 - Again, a good, calm, slow song. The lyrics in this one are extremely esquiset.
