The oldest KHJ release currently in my possession (hopefully not for too long).

#1 Twëtoraon Ipjôl 9

Quite chanty. Just something you'd expect between Kynjôwayi Ipjôl and Mông.

#2 Zajusônôn

The laughing start is so much fun. Schlagery chorus, simply good.

#3 Hunrjônso Aphesô 8

Not even a bad ballad.

#4 Siluet

Mysterious beginning, strangish chorus.

#5 Pjôk

It's seethingly hot in here for the second week running, which must be why I don't seem to get many words out of myself. Features the same kind of singing as in Twëtoraon Ipjôl.

#6 Mongzungin 7

Another ballad and neither this one very bad. Wait, this is actually quite bad after all.

#7 7ilkane Ipjôl 9

One more goodbye song. Or "thisstar", if you want. One of my favourites, clearly. Cheerful. Contains also nice-sounding lyrics, especially "hazi-mulle" or something like that in the chorus.

#8 Hanpôn Usôpwa 8

Good 90's kinda beginning but gets weaker towards the chorus. Many words that appear familiar, like that there seems to be one library ("hanpôn tosôkwan") or something.

#9 Rôpykeim 8

More good basic material.

#10 Nyzynkôja 8

I guess I should listen to these more to find the differences between them.

#11 Before and After 6

Now then a lapse into the lazy style more prominent on the next album. Reminds me of Spice Girls' Naked, which is not very good.

#12 A Sea Gull of Dream 8

And finally, the sims are going shopping for some furniture. In a way I've learnt to like this as well. After all, it's the title track.
