Best of WVR #139

Heart Disk Drive The story of my life. T_T World’s End Dancehall continues to dominate the Internets. It was #1 again this week. I call hax.

Genesis A Miku/Luka duet done right. Very nice. In related news, the Vocalogenesis album, which this song appeared on, made it to the top of the weekly Oricon music charts. That’s quite an achievement, and I hope more Vocaloid albums follow suit. In other news, ranks 30-11 were virtually devoid of new songs. On the […]

Flightless Bird Kind of an “eh” week, actually. Well, in regard to new songs anyway. There were a few old songs that I like on there, (CMB went up to #5!) but they are ineligible for my column.

Dendrobium Phalaenopsis Miku sounds lovely here. The Appends were put to good use. In unrelated news, I have another complete semester of college under my belt. Summer is here, and that means that a certain other weekly column of mine will start appearing again…

Chains and Candy As a perfect counterbalance to last week, only 7 songs featured in #133 are in the top 30 this week. The other 23 have never been seen before. Holy cow.

Coward Mont Blanc This is the best song I’ve heard from GUMI in a very, very long time. …Actually, It’s the ONLY song I’ve heard from her in a very, very long time. She hasn’t been in the rankings for quite a while, so having this great song suddenly appear made my day. And for […]

Sakura no Zenya The beginning is too plinky, but it gets a lot better after that. And it’s as if someone was actually reading me last week and listened. (Not that they were actually. Nobody ever reads me. :( ) Anyway, Magnet dropped out this week. I cheered. Now just get JBF out of there, […]

Mugs This has a very different sound to it. I don’t quite know how to describe it, other than it’s different from the songs I’m used to. This week was also notable in the fact that Double Lariat, a staple of the WVR for over a year, was pushed out of the top 30. But […]
