The Good: The Bad: The Ugly:
  • Childhood Memories, Shut Away
  • Those women longed for the touch
    of others' lips, and thus invited their kisses.
  • Three of Me, One of Someone Else
  • The Heady Feeling of Freedom
  • The cover pic on the CD booklet!
  • FMTTM (B-22A - TV Size Ver.)

 

  • FMTTM (Rei- Ep. 23 - TV Size Ver.)
  • FMTTM (Rei- Ep. 25 - TV Size Ver.)
  • FMTTM (Rei- Ep. 26 - TV Size Ver.)
  • FMTTM (Rei- Ep. 26 - TV Size Ver.)
  • Just about all 12 vocal tracks of FMTTM
  • The BGM, in general

(In this review, 'Good' doesn't really mean 'good'. What it actually means is 'Mediocre', 'Trying', and 'Someoneshootmebeforethenexttrackstarts.')

I'm disappointed. Aside from a couple of decent tracks, nothing else on this CD is worth listening to. For instance: one glaring detail you may have noticed are the "many" FMTTM tracks. Let's face it, by now we could probably recite the lyrics to this song while undergoing a vasectomy. I'm not the kind that enjoys harping on things in public, but this CD honestly deserves to be ripped.

To be blunt, this album ranks. Many of the tracks are rehashes of BGM from the previous OSTs. If you've got OSTs 1 and 2, you might as well skip this CD. Track 6, "Those women longed for the touch of others' lips, and thus invited their kisses", its a instrumental version of FMTTM and the best track on the CD. I think it says a lot when a rehash of FMTTM beats out the BGM. So spend your money on worthwhile stuff (e.g. lottery tickets) instead of this CD. This CD is really bad and it isn't worth your hard-earned scratch.

A note about the twelve torturous tracks of FMTTM: with the exception of the "4 Beat" versions, every one of the reiterations SUCK. All of them are bland, lifeless (especially the three "Rei" versions) and dull. Frank Sinatra is turning in his grave from this madness.
