If you look around on there she's got the "Systems of Romance' butterfly under glass :D

MEMENTO / Moment Rare Beauty Mix
Lyrics by Yu~ki

Wandering in the path of many centuries.
Addicted to the drawn life of water.
When future can't be seen, Lost in the labyrinth of time.
The unconscious desire wavers continually.

The glaring color. Within the end, tranquility.
In the waves of light, close the eyes.
To concentrate for this moment.

Desire the light of truth. Look for the earnest wish
Wanting to be impressed.
Accept all the shadows which interrupt
Light and walk to far from the oblivion.

The miracle of the creation. The awakening of truth.
The eternal present revolves.
The breathing of lie goes down in stillness,
The sound of the bell ticking time, echos...
-Tells moment rings-

With no body existing, No awareness of one' own ego.
Try to forget the eternal light, endless fear,
worry and hate and the end of illusion which passes away.

Flutter of lights it keeps dancing,
Cherish each other, and set them free.
Transient light gather together.
Loss of hope falling from the sky.
Just recollect! It keep recollecting. It was recollected.



~i really like the last bit
~i seem to have alot of free time today -_-;
~Moment Thee Dance Mix is mostly japanese...but some of these same english lyrics appear in it

Dude.... it's a conspiracy! o_o I should have noticed that before, bah. <<. Maybe Klaha.... suggested her to Közi? o_o Or something?

And Mina, thank you very much for the lyrics; they're beautiful. ^^

I just got mine along with the poster! YAY! I also just got through listening to it and I love it. And I must say, I don't think there has ever been a song that gave me the urge to dance as much as "Honey Vanity - Retromantics Club Mix". I love this whole CD and the poster.

Közi fucking rocks!!!!!! ::dix::

In midnight ruins...
I received my copy of Memento on Friday and, having listened to it a couple of times now, I have to say I'm disappointed. It sounds like "Kozi lite" to me - very simple compared to some of the stuff on Katarushisu and generally just more of the same, only with less "oomph". I would have expected Kozi to have developed a little bit further by now but Memento seems more like a step backwards to me.

The Retromantics Club mix of Honey Vanity is lovely though.

Lol... I said it before but I like it as I do knowing that it's Kozi. Like I said elsewhere it holds more of a sentimental value since all the songs are familiar. But I agree, Memento is not breathtaking. It's a remix though, so I don't see it in the same way as his other work. If this was the first time I heard Honey Vanity I would have probably not been as impressed either. I wish we get an original.

That only works with fans that would be buying the next thing anyway? :P

If it was a marketing ploy surely there would be some kind of information concerning any possible release of original mixes or inclusion on an album? I must admit I was a bit disappointed with Memento but I'm glad I have it still.

BTW - when I received Memento from Third Stage I got a free mini magazine called "gab" which has a page about Közi and cosplay or something (my Japanese reading skills are rudimentary at best). Did anyone else see this, or receive it with their orders? I can scan it and post a link in case anyone is interested.

nice to be registered now instead of a lurker
