With new lyrics and an awesome delivery by Sowelu, she nails this very danceable and disco-homage track to perfection. Sowelu's voice is crisp and clear, with tinges of R&B in her tone, which makes this song one of the best covers ever.
Big-O's rap solo is unique, as is all Japanese hip-hop, but its Sowelu that makes this song shine.Did you find this review helpful? Yes (Report This) -
SWEET BRIDGE (Japan Version)
August 12, 2005 SOWELU: Sweet BridgeThe other reviewers of this album are all correct--this is one of the best J-Pop albums in a long time. Almost all of the songs are spot-on hits, with only "The Rose", a cover of a standard song in America, being the weakest of the group.
While "The Rose" isn't a bad song, it doesn't showcase all of her various ranges and singing talent as it does in all of the other songs. Sowelu really hits all of her high marks with this follow-up album, and having various styles of music (dance, R&B, slow ballads, etc.) all mixed in gives any listener a favorite song on this well-produced CD.
Her first album "Geofu" was a good introduction to this talented and beautiful singer. "Sweet Bridge" proves that she's no one-time wonder. Sowelu is here to stay in the J-Pop industry for years to come, and if "Sweet Bridge" is any indication, she's a major force to be reckoned with--get this album now, you won't be disappointed!Did you find this review helpful?

Sowelu VIDEO CLIPS Vol.1 (UMD Music)(Japan Version) UMD, DVD Region 2, PSP
(1)Our Price: US$39.95Usually ships within 7 - 14 daysAugust 12, 2005 SOWELU Video Clips Vol. 1A great collection of Sowelu's hits. The videos are crisp and imaginative, and the DVD showcases a behind-the-scenes compilation of all of the videos being produced.
Watch Sowelu not only grow as a performer in her first video to the latest one on the DVD, but also how much she has grown from a cute girl to a beautiful woman. Her singing range is excellent and her looks only compliment her talent. A must-buy for anyone who enjoys positive and danceable J-Pop!Did you find this review helpful? Yes (Report This)
