I'm going to abuse the fact that I started this thread to go first XD
I love ALL MY LOVE. It's such a beautiful song, and it's the minus versions that really show that. There's such a depth to the music and so many layers to it - even though it's YFCz and the music wasn't written by GACKT, it kinda reminds me of some his older solo stuff simply because of how many layers there are.
The vocals are great too and they both pour so much feeling into it. Jon takes a more traditional approach to making the emotion felt (isn't the minus G version stunning?) whereas GACKT sounds like he's, at times, just screaming at the sky. It suits the personalities they present to us and contrasts very well

YOU ARE THE REASON: It's not just the synthesiser (tho it did make me jump in my chair the first time I heard it) the music is to loud compared to the vocals on the overall and it kinda just kills them and the song!! Which is such a shame since as you said they are really superb!!! Especially if you ever heard the live version (among it the a capella start).The music is just such a "mess" (not meant in a bad way BTW) it would need the vocals to connect it... And if you listen to them you can hear they were meant to do that, but like this it just doesn’t work!!:/
I might perhaps be too critical, but this was my favourite original YFC song from the lives so…
I haven't recieved my single yet, but on YesAsia this is the tracklist:
CD 01 ALL MY LOVE 02 YOU ARE THE REASON 03 ALL MY LOVE(Instrumental) 04 YOU ARE THE REASON(Instrumental) 全2曲4ヴァージョン収録予定
DVD ◆ALL MY LOVE -MUSIC CLIP- 約5分収録予定
I can't read japanese so I have no idea what 全2曲4ヴァージョン収録予定 and 約5分収録予定 means, but aren't the minus versions on this single? :S It might be a dumb question, do forgive me please xD I'm really looking forward to hearing the minus versions...
Absolutely the same about G and J version. Jon kills me, but you know that already XD I an still a bit confused that his singing blew my thoughts out of my mind. So far that only happens with Fragrance and Uncertain Memory .___.
