Vampire (Karin's cover):

This suits her so well.

Oh man this song is perfect for her.

I'm getting more Yoko Kanno-produced Maaya Sakamoto vibes, which I love.

Comparison :
Miyamoto Karin 1st Album "Hitori Toiro" (7,983 ; #10)

Imo the songs in the second half of the album are the best part. Polaris Compass is a fine song, it's drive time comfy like Mirai no Filament, but I thought Love Gravity or Unfair na Jijou would have been a better MV song.

I was wary of Vampire, back when I listened to a lot of vocaloid I didn't like Miku or how people used other vocaloids like Miku, but the song is pretty good and Karin nails it.

Another YT short with Miyamoto Karin, this time from M-line Music #144, singing Aishiawanakya Mottainai!



Karin just gives me life with that Showa vocal energy
