Oh... My... GOD!
I met a preview of the cd in early January, and loved it, especially "Zima"/"Winter", though "My heart has a light" was really great, too. But today, I managed to get hold of the whole album! Sooo, here's my final opinion.

First, Zima. The feeling was... well... angsty enough, with a silky voice to rival France's or Iggy's (and that'a a great word from me), although at first I thought the guitars were too dominant. In the end, I liked the full version as well- and when I listened till the end, I heard him kol'ing in a way that made me think he was right behind me! So, it was shiver, but in the good way

Second- My heart has a light. It was so adorably Russia I couldn't believe my ears! And it made me laugh hard. Why? Imagine Russia in his usual cute voice, singing to a happy tune: "All I want is the souther islands", "We don't need children who can't play nice", There's no such service as compromise in Russia", "Even the cursed chair gets blown to bits" and stuff, with his voice only changing (into a slightly hysterical one) when talking about Belarus.

On another note: I finally uploaded my first fanfic to fanfiction.net! I'm akane sarumara there, in case you'd take a look at it; the pairing is England and Hungary, it's right now at the fourth chapter.
