10/29/09: Shouri no Uta (Beast OP) Performed Live

**Ryouko**

Special thanks for Sai Hikawa e-mailing me this video. ^_^ Here we can see Dandelion performing the opening song to Rockman.EXE Beast, "Shouri no Uta". Only, it's a bit different! They sing it accoustically with guitars, and it's really beautiful. Enjoy!

A very interesting voice. It was kind of weird to hear it sung so fast and with acoustic guitars. Shocked

Neat!

....I always thought a woman was singing...my world has been turned upside down.

Yeah. J-music is a little odd about that isn't it. I guess they can sing like they can look. Androgynous.

to me it sounded like a males voice.

Really Sketch? It's a very masculine voice.

I can't ever get enough of Shouri no Uta.. I sing it practically every day while waiting for the bus.

I have always wondered why it would sound like it the song was sung faster, but I think I prefer the slower one. Still, really nice!

Uh, I also thought it was a woman singing. Sigh...... Was this common knowledge, or are me and Sketch alone in this?

I thought it was a woman, and honestly... I'm still not sure if that person is male or female. :S

Whoa, I thought it was woman singing the theme song as well. Now he does sound more masculine in this video, but he sounds like a woman in the theme song.

That is, if it is a he. I agree with Saito-kun, I can't 100% tell if its a male or female.

Now listen to Rockman. EXE theme song, THAT sounds like men. (In fact, that's probably my favorite Rockman theme song in Japanese.)

He sounds like a female singing? XD
I dunno, he sounded male to me right from the start lol.
Though I agree, there are a few singers that when I first hear them sing, I can't make out their gender.

Btw the original singer is male right??
But i don't know why in youtube is look like woman voice....

I seriously don't hear how the voice could be mistaken for a woman's. D: Maybe I've just been listening to Japanese music too long.

to mizu: that may explain it for me aswell. most of what i listen to is not even in english, most is in japanese. (it may also have something to do with being a choral student)

It depends on what kind of music it is I guess. ...Is there any Female J-Rock or J-Metal bands?

I like how it sounds and about the voice of the singer, it always sounded male to me, maybe because of the same reason Izumi-san or something else.

I don't its' there full female J-rock o J-metal bands but I know the baterist of Maximun the hormone is a girl, hope it counts for something

Revisiting an ages-old topic here--sorry!

Just wanted to ask if anyone could point me toward more Dandelion music. I'm not good at searching in Japanese, but I really love the sound, and wanted to find more! :D
