There will be a covers album released next month which sees the best of the current Jrock and Visual Kei bands covering the best of Jrock and VK bands of the 1990s
This is D's cover of Malice Mizer's 月下の夜想曲
I really like D, and this is very much in their style of song and I LOVE the original so I'm kinda confused over whether I like it or not :-/
In making it into a D song with the heavier guitars, they've completely ripped out the feeling and playfulness which was such a large part of what made the original (and most of the GACKT-era Mizer stuff) so much fun and so good. They've changed the music so much but the vocal melody is pretty much exactly the same so it sounds kinda odd and doesn't quite work.
But, I don't hate it. After a couple of listens it's starting to grow on me. I think I'm going to treat it as a brand new song and not compare it to the original XD
I suspect that a lot of Malice Mizer fans are going to hate D for this but really, it was never going to sound any different.
