Gubaba Posted June 23, 2011 Posted June 23, 2011 (edited) Okay...the 30th Anniversary is coming up next year. It's probably too late to work out a new anime, but I wouldn't mind seeing another Macross Tribute album (and maybe another FB2012-type OVA, but that's another topic...), so I started thinking about who I'd want to sing what, and ended up with this list... 1. Holy Raz - "Macross" 2. Yoshiki Fukuyama - "My Boyfriend Is a Pilot" 3. Gabriela Robin - "Do You Remember Love?" 4. May'n - "The Hush of Two Million Years" 5. Mari Iijima - "Santi-u" 6. Yuuka Nanri - "Tostsugeki Loveheart" 7. Megumi Nakajima - "Dynamite Explosion" 8. Hiroko Kasahara - "Arkan" 9. Tomo Sakurai - "What 'bout my star?" 10. Chie Kajiura - "Universal Bunny" 11. Akino Arai - "Nijiiro Kuma Kuma" 12. Mika Doi - "Starlight Natto" Whaddya think? Edited June 23, 2011 by Gubaba Quote
Xard Posted June 23, 2011 Posted June 23, 2011 11. Akino Arai - "Nijiiro Kuma Kuma" woah where did this come from? Surprising combination... I have very few ideas overall but I still want Nakajima's version of Voices recorded in studio and released goddamnit. If it would finally happen through something like this I would be one happy guy Maaya Sakamoto's Tenshi no Enogu would be fine too! Her voice and style would really fit that song, now that I think about it Quote
valkyriechild Posted June 23, 2011 Posted June 23, 2011 I would love to see another tenshi no enogu kind of video clip, with that good old animation style. Quote
VF5SS Posted June 23, 2011 Posted June 23, 2011 Yoshiki Fukuyama - "My Boyfriend Is a Pilot" why you do this Quote
Tochiro Posted June 24, 2011 Posted June 24, 2011 Gabriela Robin? Hehehe, comeon, just write Yoko Kanno. Its shorter ;-) There was a problem in your list tho.... 1. Yoshiki Fukuyama - "Macross" 2. Yoshiki Fukuyama - "My Boyfriend Is a Pilot" 3. Yoshiki Fukuyama - "Do You Remember Love?" 4. Yoshiki Fukuyama - "The Hush of Two Million Years" 5. Yoshiki Fukuyama - "Santi-u" 6. Yoshiki Fukuyama- "Tostsugeki Loveheart" 7. Yoshiki Fukuyama - "Dynamite Explosion" 8. Yoshiki Fukuyama - "Arkan" 9. Yoshiki Fukuyama - "What 'bout my star?" 10. Yoshiki Fukuyama - "Universal Bunny" 11. Yoshiki Fukuyama - "Nijiiro Kuma Kuma" 12. Yoshiki Fukuyama - "Starlight Natto" Fixed. Quote
Germán Posted June 24, 2011 Posted June 24, 2011 (edited) My version is a mini album: 1- "New song" Lynn Minmay starring Mari Iijima. 2- "Do you remember love? (acoustic)" - Mari Iijima and Mika Doi. 3- "Diamond Crevasse" - May'n, with Yoshiki Fukuyama in guitar and chorus. 4- "Remember 16" - Megumi Nakajima. 5- "Runner" - Hiroko Kasahara. 6- "Yakusoku" - Chie Kajiura. 7- "Lion" - Yoshiki Fukuyama and "Fire Bomber" 8- "Information High" - May'n. Bonus Track - "Tenshi no Enogu" with Mari Iijima, May'n, Chie Kajiura, Megumi Nakajima. Of course the cover of the CD by Haruhiko Mikimoto. Edited June 24, 2011 by Germán Quote
Renato Posted June 24, 2011 Posted June 24, 2011 Gabriela Robin? Hehehe, comeon, just write Yoko Kanno. Its shorter ;-) There was a problem in your list tho.... Fixed. I'm "plus-one-ing" this post. 6. Yuuka Nanri - "Tostsugeki Loveheart" Who's that? Quote
Gubaba Posted June 24, 2011 Author Posted June 24, 2011 woah where did this come from? Surprising combination... That's the ONLY one that jumped out at you as odd...? Fixed. I bow to your superior taste, sir. My version is a mini album: 1- "New song" Lynn Minmay starring Mari Iijima. 2- "Do you remember love? (acoustic)" - Mari Iijima and Mika Doi. 3- "Diamond Crevasse" - May'n, with Yoshiki Fukuyama in guitar and chorus. 4- "Remember 16" - Megumi Nakajima. 5- "Runner" - Hiroko Kasahara. 6- "Yakusoku" - Chie Kajiura. 7- "Lion" - Yoshiki Fukuyama and "Fire Bomber" 8- "Information High" - May'n. Bonus Track - "Tenshi no Enogu" with Mari Iijima, May'n, Chie Kajiura, Megumi Nakajima. Of course the cover of the CD by Haruhiko Mikimoto. That's pretty good, too...although I'm not sure about "Information High"...I love May'n dearly, but her English pronunciation isn't the best... Who's that? Mao. Also, the singer for Fiction Junction Yuuka. Quote
Robelwell202 Posted June 24, 2011 Posted June 24, 2011 And not one mention of Yoko Kanno... What a shame... Quote
Gubaba Posted June 24, 2011 Author Posted June 24, 2011 And not one mention of Yoko Kanno... What a shame... No, as Tochiro pointed out, she's there. Quote
soul.assassin Posted June 24, 2011 Posted June 24, 2011 This should really be a double-disc special, plus a special Drama disc where they're all gathered for the first time in decades, talking as if they're old friends. Quote

Considering how bad most of the drama albums are, I think I'd rather they didn't. Quote

Xard Posted June 24, 2011 Posted June 24, 2011 (edited) That's the ONLY one that jumped out at you as odd...? Hey, after Bobby did it having Basara singing watashi no kare wa pilot would not be that out there... Similarly I can see Kanno/Robin do Ai Oboete Imasuka in arrangement reminiscent of bless the little queen version with vocal overlays etc. a la . Iijima's current voice might go pretty well with Santi-U, actually. Okay, Megumi doing Dynamite Explosion in moe Neko Nikki/Stocking song "Ranka Voice" would be pretty weird but I can see her doing a pretty terrific version of it if she uses her lower, more natural pitch. Some live versions of Lion I've heard where she sings it closer to her natural voice were seriously rockin' (or sing it like on Sayonara no Tsubasa). As for Hiroko Kasahara, I haven't even watched Macross II so can't say... I'm pretty fine and curious for all kinds of wacky song/singer combinations here, really. As said before, only thing I really want is Megumi's Voices. Her version of Tenshi no Enogu is really good in my opinion but I still curse fans for voting for that over Voices! Even low quality bootlegs I've heard of it (like one from Tanasonic concert) were terrific so I still long for proper, good quality studio cut of the song. Speaking of wacky combinations, Fukuyama's Neko Nikki would be hysterical. Edited June 24, 2011 by Xard Quote
Germán Posted June 24, 2011 Posted June 24, 2011 (edited) That's pretty good, too...although I'm not sure about "Information High"...I love May'n dearly, but her English pronunciation isn't the best... It would be nice to send to Kawamori jajaj Edited June 24, 2011 by Germán Quote
Marzan Posted June 25, 2011 Posted June 25, 2011 I'd like to hear May'n do a cover of "For now a friend" from Macross II. And her and Megumi doing "Riding in your Valkyrie" would be pretty sweet too. And I'm 100% behind Gubaba's proposal for Yoshiki Fukuyama doing "My Boyfriend's a Pilot' Quote
