It's pretty good! Much more quiet than I expected. Most is very sweet summer bossa, no matter what the song originally was.
Yesterday was a nice and warm spring day, and this is the first thing I was going to listen to in the morning.
When I saw the first title come up ("Anarchy in the UK"), for a moment I thought "I can't start such a nice day with that song..." but after just a few seconds of listening I changed my mind, it was just fine. :)

Was sitting in a restaurant in Kumamoto with some friends, having the most delicious lunch, when I heard familiar songs playing over the audio system. The tune was familiar but I wasn't sure of the language. Then, one after another, familiar tunes softly eeked out. I chuckled at first, hearing songs sung in English with a heavy Japanese accent. On one song, Do You Remember The Rock'n Roll Radio originally sung by the Ramones, even after I read the liner notes, it was still difficult to understand what she was saying. But even with that said, it is a pretty good CD. Besides, do we ALWAYS listen to music for the lyrics? We often times listen to it for the "mood" it sets. My favorite cut, You May Dream, really ushers in a romantic mood. The clean, sultry voice, coupled with the classical guitar, makes it very easy to listen to. Overall, I give it an 8 out of 10.
