Review
This is a somewhat special album. It contains mostly songs taken from
earlier albums and features only a couple of new songs, which have been
released as singles too. All the old songs have been re-sung though, so they
sound slighly different.
The title of this album, ZARD BLEND, also indicates that it is mix album with various songs.
Sun & Stone stands for warm and cold I guess or happy and sad. It might be interesting to
divide the songs into these two categories. For the "Sun" songs I would choose the first four songs,
song 7, 8, 9 and 12. The rest would then be the so-called "Stone" songs. The "Sun" songs have
clearly the upperhand and I personally like them better too.
The two new songs, Kimini Aitaku Nattara... and Don't you See!,
are both excellent songs. Especially Don't You See!, this song is probably
one of the most popular song among Zard fans. It was featured as an ending theme
to the anime serie Dragon Ball GT and it was also the song that introduced me to Zard.
All in all this is a good album with a nice album theme, but it lacks new tracks to get very excited
about it.
