パワフルなハイトーン・ヴォイスが魅力のシンガーによる3作目。人気アニメのテーマ曲としてヒットした“IGNITE”“GENESIS”など突き抜けるような声が光るアッパー・チューンを中心に、壮大なアレンジで聴かせる“ずっとそばで”や、ピアノのみのイントロから始まるドラマティックなバラード“青の世界”など表現力豊かな歌声が胸を打つ一枚。ボーナス・トラックに収録の相川七瀬“BREAK OUT!”のカヴァーもカッコイイ!
[English Translation]
Eir Aoi "D'AZUR"
The third album from the singer with the attractive, powerful high-tone voice. Centering on upper-sounding tunes featuring her brilliant piercing voice such as "IGNITE" and "GENESIS" which became hits as popular anime theme songs, the album delivers her impressive and expressive singing voice as in the magnificently arranged "Zutto Sobade (meaning Always Beside You)" as well as the dramatic ballad "Ao no Sekai (meaning Azure World)" starting with a piano-only intro. The cover of Japanese rock and pop singer Nanase Aikawa's "BREAK OUT!" included in the bonus track is also cool!
