Mea culpa, mea culpa Customer Review Rated Bad 9 - 9 out of 10
Of all the things I review on this site, I find that J-Pop CDs by far are the most difficult. The nature of Japanese pop songwriting is the reason why. Like Western pop music, J-Pop follows the typical pop song structure: verse, chorus; verse, chorus; middle eight (or breakup strain); verse, chorus. However, with J-Pop, the verses -- and sometimes the choruses, too -- often are greatly elongated in a way that can sound aimless and meandering to Western ears. It can take many weeks and many multiple replayings before the song structures begin to click with me.

This is what has happened with Shibasaki Kou's "Kiki" album. Now that I have lived with it for several months, I have come to love it. Indeed, it contains some of Miss Shibasaki's best vocals and coolest songs. (Check out track 11; it is sublime.) There is only one song on the album that I skip; track 7 really does contain aimless and meandering songwriting.

I now can recommend "Kiki" wholeheartedly for all Shibasaki Kou fans.

Keep 'em simple Customer Review Rated Bad 7 - 7 out of 10
Shibasaki Kou's third album, "Kiki", unfortunately too often is sabotaged by lazy songwriting. The arrangements are sharp, the playing is tight, Miss Shibasaki's vocals have never been better, but too many of the songs just seem to meander in search of a recognizable melody.

My favorite songs are tracks 3, 4, 5, 8, and 10, all crisply written tunes. But then we find songs like track 7, which has a memorable chorus, but also possesses a verse section so convoluted that Miss Shibasaki seems to get lost in it.

Fans of Shibasaki Kou will want to own this album and there are some nuggets of gold to be found here, but Miss Shibasaki's previous two albums definitely are superior.
