K.K.K.K.K.

K.K.K.K.K. (1998) is the second full-length album from cult Japanese singer Kahimi Karie, originally released in 1998 on the Cornelius-run Trattoria label. In 1999, it saw domestic release on Le Grand Magistery, along with four bonus remixes. It was the last Kahimi Karie album to be made readily available in the U.S., a year after the release of her well-liked self-titled compilation. Like most Kahimi Karie albums, the songs are predominately sung in English, though several are written in French. A song with lyrics by Karie herself is also included ("What Is Blue?"), rare in her early work. ハッピー度高い新作には,お馴染みモ-マス,カトリ-ヌら他ステレオ・トータル,堀江博久,神田朋樹らが参加。英/仏詞によるカヒミのウィスパー・ヴォイスが各々の個性あふれる楽曲を彼女色に染める。特に瀧見憲司編曲によるジミ-・クリフのカヴァーは見事。
