Sailor Moon And The Scouts: Lunarock (Anime Series)
The main complaint with the firstSailor MoonCD was that it lacked any Japanese music. The eight songs onLunarockinclude two from Japan: "Moonlight Densetsu," the original Japanese opening theme song, and "Ai No Senshi" fromSailor Moon R. There is also a new scoring of theBeatlesclassic "I Want to Hold Your Hand," as Sailor Moon's pledge to Tuxedo Mask. Of the five original American tunes, Sailor Moon (Jennifer Cihi) has another single, her peppy battle theme "The Power of Love" (one of the program's best).  Two other singles are Sailor Jupiter's "Daddy's Girl" (a gentle lament about growing up) and Sailor Mars's comforting "Nothing at All."  The final two are the three Sailor Scouts' yeah-yeah trio about boys, "I Want Someone to Love," and Sailor Moon and Mars's musical spat, "Who Do You Think You Are?" This second effort is at least as good as the firstSailor MoonCD, maybe even better.--Fred Patten
