Joe Hisaishi: Island Song
I wrote about this song last night and I found the result to be more lacking than usual so I decided to see if I could do better today. The result is similar but it reads better I feel. There’s … Continue reading

Joe Hisaishi: Silent Love
I think I was trying to find a balance between describing the song and the imagery I was getting from the listen and I think I did a better job than the last few times. However, once more there was … Continue reading
