This is the first japanese music in this review list. I'm a big fan of the Japanese music scene and I've been monitoring their Oricon chart frequently to see what kind of music is popular over there.

This soundtrack is from the SKIPBEAT anime. If you haven't heard of it, make sure to check the anime or the manga out. It's one of the most popular shoujo manga out in the market right now.

This single album by the generous is really nice, actually. My favorite track is Dream Star. It will really pump you up for some reason.

Rating: Recommended.

Tracklist:

1. Melody
2. Dream Star
3. Tabibito
3. Rainbow
4. Open your Eyes
5. Melody -English version
6. Dream Star - English version

One of my favorite soundtracks ever. When I first heard the song, a little pain, I wanted to have a song just like it. I really WANTED to have something like that in my repertoire (I'm a music student, btw).
Anyway, make sure to check the anime and the soundtrack. You won't regret it.
