Angel Rock'n Roll

I don't think I've ever given a CD "@_@" rating before, so an explanation is in order. I have not seen any of the Galaxy Angel anime (feel free to yell loudly and recommend it to me if you feel strongly about it), but ever since I found the "Angel Love" internet radio, I've not missed a single broadcast. In it, these two songs are kind of used as opening and ending.

Believe or not, it's the second song that I got hooked on. Both Shintani-san and Gotou-san do not have the exaggerated cute voice like Yukarin. In fact, they rarely sound cute. If anything, they sound like they don't care about being cute at all. And you put together this crazy cute and addicting song and let the two sing it. It's one of those cases in which unlikely combinations form the great art. The high-pitched sub-melody riding on trianglewave-like timbre flowing around their voices is so unbearably addictive, I just had to buy this. I can't explain it any better than that, either. All I can say is that I just LOVE "Jelly Beans."

Radio show is about to end, though, so if you want to check it out, you better do it soon. I don't want to put up a link to something that's going to go away soon, so you'll have to be clever about it :p
