For all you Macross Frontier and Japanese music fans out there, Nakabayashi May (Sheryl's voice in all the songs) made an appearance last night on TBS's Live R-Zero program and sang Diamond Crevasse in its entirety. Even after listening to her CD ad nauseum, I still really like the song, so it was cool to hear the live version. She did a fairly good job with it too - much better than I've heard some more popular artists do (SMAP and Ayumi come to mind) anyway. My main complaint is that the audience and host Izumiya Shigeru didn't really seem all that into it, and that kind of took away from the atmosphere. Then again, this is an anime song appearing on a normal music program, so it might be somewhat understandable. Regardless, the video is definitely still worth a watch, if for just the song alone. Hopefully it'll be able to hold me over until the first Macross Frontier soundtrack is released next Wednesday (June 4th).
