Hello, forum friends Here is my submission for Xtra Styles PAK 5 Song Contest. The category is Rock-Pop. This song was written about 10 years ago, I remade it with Xtra Styles PAK 5 for the submission this time. It is a story of Boy Meets Girl. Rock song. Any comments encouraged. Always welcome. Best regards. Shigeki Adachi Title: 天使のいたずら (Translation: Angel's Mischief) Vocal: Yoko K., my friend Link; https://soundcloud.com/animarorecords/angel-mischiefStyle is _FURIOUS.STY (Furious Classic Blues Rock) RealTracks in style: ~579:Bass, Electric, Blues Roadhouse Ev 120 RealTracks in style: 2635:Guitar, Electric, Rhythm CountryBluesRockHigh Ev 110 RealTracks in style: 650:Guitar, Electric, Rhythm PopRockBritHeavy Ev 120 (B:power) RealDrums in Style: SouthernPop8ths^01-a:Hat, Snare, b:Open Hat, Snare Additional Wurlitzer Piano Played with SampleTank 3 Additional Strings played with LA Scoring Strings Additional Elec. Guitar solo played by Yamaha teacher Scored by me Summary of lyrics: It seems like a child to believe a fairy tale But someone whispered close to my ear It was a little angel with small wings who still looked like an apprentice And he told me that he would give his help for me to get love I will fully dress up and go to the party tonight That boy who is my true intention is surely supposed to come. I'm good at dancing and both hair and makeup look perfect on me I will seduce him with this extremely short miniskirt But why did you make a mistake, my angel? You shot the other person The silver arrow you struck hit the boy Who was standing next to the boy I had aimed The boy stuck with the arrow soon came close to me friendly And he spoke to me frankly with a gentle face But he took a quick look at my legs He must be a bad boy, it’s your blame, my angel What a naughty angel Why did you deliberately miss the target? No, I am sure you must know properly That he would become a best partner for me My mischievous cupid of small wings, Now I want you to be the guardian for our love If he is looking at someone else but me Please tell me quickly with keeping it secret from him, my angel This is just between you and me

Shigeki,
Everything about this is so good. All of the instrumentation fits together and compliments each other so well. Love the melody and the vocalist has a beautiful voice.
I totally enjoyed this. Thx for sharing.

Excellent! Really expert use of style and the real tracks. Very solid composition, using the foundation of the rock style with layers of harmonic interest. I was especially impressed by the lyrics—There is a special skill when one can write a sensible-sounding lyric for the opposite gender—This can be very difficult! I also like the contrast between the music for the versus compared to the theme for the chorus. Beautifully scored over all including the use of the live performers. Outstanding, Shigeki!

Awesome changeup Shigeki. Very cool song. The backtrack was excellent. Super vocal.. I just love symphony music in rock songs. Brings up memorys of Procal Harem that played with the Edmonton Symphony. Guitar was very cool as well

Shigeki,
A opening that fits the "Furious" style, very good vocals as always by Yoko, and I think that`s the first time I`ve heard one of your band play lead guitar- nice!
The icing for me is the big string arrangement which takes a good rock song into Symphonic Pop.
Good luck in the competition!
Robert

The intro guitar solos set this apart. Classic tone & style.
The song is a wonderful piece of fun and the strings really sound just right for the hybrid style.
Cheers

Shigeki Adachi,
Very dynamic rock piece. The strings and lead guitar play against each other perfectly throughout. Nice movement all along.
Terrific arrangement and excellent mix.
Yoko's vocal is excellent.
This sounds like a theme song from a James Bond movie...

Like floyd said it sounds like a Bond movie theme.
The vocals, guitar, strings and arrangement are tremendous. It's hard to imagine the amount of talent and effort it took to produce this.
Congrats to everybody involved.
Excellent!!!!

Starts like any famous Bond theme. Then melody, chording and orchestration is like straight from France's Eurovision Song Contest entry in the 70's. And on top of this your superb arrangement, orchestration + rocking guitars is a great combination, the solo is excellent. Fantastic approach and great vocals, sounds like a big classic hit to me. good like to the contest!

Hello, Tom
Thank you very much for taking the time to listen and comment.
I am really glad you like this tune.
And many thanks for your comment to my lyrics.
Writing the lyrics for the opposite gender is certainly difficult, but as almost all of my songs are written for female vocalists, I must prepare such lyrics by all means.
I am always very encouraged by your kind words.
Best regards.
Shigeki Adachi

Hello, Robert
Thank you very much for taking the time to listen and comment.
I am really glad you like this tune, the vocalist and the guitarist.
I am always indebted to Yamaha teachers in our live recording, but since I do not often record rock-like songs, this guitar performance may have been unusual.
I am always very encouraged by your kind words.
Best regards.
Shigeki Adachi

fj Shigeki, Floyd said exactly what I was thinking. A James Bond Movie came to mind after just 10 seconds. The strings and guitar lead gave this a whole new dimension. And Yoko sounds fabulous (she always does). The mix is perfect. What a BIG SOUND! Kudos for as terrific song! Alan
