Not to be Missed Customer Review Rated Bad 9 - 9 out of 10
My affair with Yuna's work is much like the one I have with Utada Hikaru - Her songs can be hard to grasp at first, bombarding you with almost non-formulaic arrangements that can be a little off-putting at first. But upon repeated listenings, the melodies reveal themselves to you and you can begin to start to appreciate all the other little touches that Yuna and the composers added into it.

The first time I heard Yuna's singing was listening to the theme song of "Limit of Love", PRECIOUS. Frankly, I became almost annoyed at the apparent sheer plainness of her vocal style. It also bears no resemblance to the shrill timbre and untrained style employed by most Japanese singers I've heard. Her voice is very much an american product, but what's different is she somehow manages to infuse into it an Asian-ness she presumably inherited from her parents.

The result is a dull, flat tone at first listen, but during choruses quickly adapts into a soaring voice with a gentle brightness that is unhindered by the same strain evident in singers like Onitsuka Chihiro and Ayumi. This rare quality took me many attentive sessions to notice and is what got me addicted to Yuna Ito in the first place. Juxtaposed to this almost opera-like stature is an earthy breathiness and vitality that makes no attempt to hide its youthfulness, but rather is complemented by it.

Her DVD includes videos that are harmonious in artistic expression and each possess an unforgettable simple beauty about them (most notably Precious, which you can look up on youtube.com, and Losin 'it). Likely the best I've seen coming from Japan, bar Utada Hikaru's Kaz trilogy.

The tenderness of a girl, the strength of a Diva. 9 out of 10 from me.

 Good...but boring Customer Review Rated Bad 6 - 6 out of 10
I love all the new songs...but the album starts to drag after awhile. The lack of upbeat songs really puts me to sleep. While the ballads are extremely beautiful, they just go on and on. Yuna is talented though, but her voice lacks interesting qualities. It's just pretty...but there's nothing unpredictable about it.

My mom's a bigger fan than I am. I wouldn't recommend this CD for my age group though. I'm 18...I recommend this for 28-up.

Good Customer Review Rated Bad 8 - 8 out of 10
I thought that this was a good album. I liked WORKAHOLIC and Tender is the Night the best. The songs could have been better lyricwise, but I love her voice and tone. I am disappointed that her song Pureyes wasn't on this album, but other than that, I liked it.

uhm... Customer Review Rated Bad 9 - 9 out of 10
uhm... I thought this album was interesting...

I really thought when buying the DVD Japan version of this product, i would be kind of asking for one fast paced song (losin) and i guess ballads for the rest, however i found out this album appealed to me alot. Sure for some other customers who may have purchased this product may have thought differently, although you must consider what Yuna Ito delievers in contrast to other Ballad artist. An over view through her tracklist is that i didn't really care to skip tracks and i believed it was very well compiled list. "Fragile" had an appeal to me, (concerning this is not a single) it had more of a lovely pop. Every song is very easy listen to; concerning most of the music i purchase plays in my room stereo.

The DVD contents was interesting, "endless story" instead of having that band; it shows clips of her makings of most of her singles. I did like the fact stuck on you was not on the album, or else it would have not blended well. The music videos, are different from the promotional ones on TV, so do expect to see more Yuna rather than the band.

Recently; my DVD player is kind of broken, so right now i am missing "stuck on you".....

I rate it a 9

 Shes the second best Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
I was very impressed with this album when i first had it. Most songs on this album is great and you wouldnt get bored listening to it because its just so catchy. The best song on the album is probably endless story although it is quite old now, my second favourite has got to be Losin.
