YesAsia Editorial Description

Ayu's classical gold!

Until now the scope of J-music's hit song diva Hamasaki Ayumi centered on the modern music world only, but now she's crossing over to the sounds of the good old days via her MY STORY CLASSICAL treat! All of you who are worried that this might be too much of a change for the chart-topping songstress, rest assured this unique release still carries her typical signature as these are actually enhanced versions from her previous 11 track album delight MY STORY. Ayu shunned no expenses whatsoever and especially invited well-known conductor Sado Yutaka for the album's very unique orchestral arrangements. On top of all the stunning classic Ayu extravaganzas, music lovers can look forward to the fantastic bonus track A Song is born that the star penned personally as a gift for Japan's Royal Couple , which was featured as representative song during the "Love the Globe Exhibition".

Pretty nice Customer Review Rated Bad 6 - 6 out of 10
I bought this way back with STEP you, when they were released. When I first listened to it I admit I was a bit disappointed, some songs were pretty boring. They really mean the word "classical" lol.
But there are also a few nice songs, like WONDERLAND (my favorite).

Even a better plus was that my mom enjoyed some of the songs ;D

Overall, it is a pretty nice addition to your collection.
However, if you don't like classical music all that much and you prefer rock-ish, I'd say go for MY STORY original :)

Diffrent but still good Customer Review Rated Bad 6 - 6 out of 10

To be honest I don´t love this album. Some of the new versions is way to long and little boring. I still like it but the new music does not always fit the songs. If you wanna buy Ayu CDs do not start with this one. Start with her studio albums in order then remix albums in order. Some songs are worth listen to and there for it gets 6 stars for that.

One of Ayu's most beautiful albums yet Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
This album is so perfect. The Orchestrated songs are so beautiful, and it's really enlightening to see how some of her songs are really transformed with the full symphonics. For example, HAPPY ENDING takes on a whole new perspective with the Classical Version. GAME Classical Version will leave you breathless with its dramatic Strings in the background, to easily become the best CLassical Version on this album. The exception of some songs does not AT ALL hurt the album in any way, trust me, you won't even know they're not there. This is just the most beautiful album ever, if you enjoy Classical music too, you'll just love this.

SO GOOD Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
I really like the ayu-mi-x acoustic orchestra version albums, but this is BY FAR way better than any of them. Instead of having simple piano's and string ensembles, this one was done with a much bigger full symphony orchestra (although a few songs are with strings only or smaller groups). A few of the songs are pretty similar to the original version, but some others are pretty different. The non-vocal tracks (wonderland, kaleidoscope, catcher in the light) are really worth listening to and are so different from the original ones. Overall, the whole thing sound SO much better with a full symphony, its just no comparison. I listen to this cd more than I listen to the original My Story album. My favorites are Game, Hope or Pain, Catcher in the Light, and Walking Proud.
If you are an ayu-fan and appreciate classical music, then YOU HAVE TO BUY THIS its one of my favorite cds.
