30 days challenge by okusawamiikun || DAY IX - FAVOURITE ROSELIA SONG

Roselia is ... not actually the band that’s the most my musical aesthetic (we’re gonna be talking about that some other day) but it’s pretty damn close! they’re definitely the one I have the most fun singing and that’s important. I used to be on the boat that said their music sounded same-y (good, but same-y) and I still insist Determination Symphony is just what happens if you put all previous Roselia songs into a blender, but they’ve been getting so much better about that - they haven’t lost their core sound but they’ve given each new song more of an identity and now I can confidently say they have some of my favourite music in the franchise. I’d say it started ... with Opera of the wasteland?

but we’re not here to talk about that so favourite original is most definitely R. I mean, that song dropped and everyone rightfully lost it. that jazzy note to it, all while still being super loud and classy, the fact that everyone gets to sing a big fraction and they all sound so good together, ISHIZUENARU ONE’S INTENTION-- oh whoops this song activates my ‘if you can’t sing it immediately at least quote it’ response and that’s how you know it’s good

favourite cover would have been a tough one if it wasn’t for Charles. it’s in that weird void where I love Charles as a song but I’m actually not super fond of the original (don’t like the tuning), so the main reason I love it is actually Roselia’s cover ... and I’m so dang happy it’s gonna get a full version soon.

shoutouts to PASSIONATE ANTHEM for it’s spectacular second half and This game, mostly for making me super proud of Rinko with that piano solo in the beginning
