This is Leah Dizons 4th single and was released on March 26, 2008. It reached #15 on the Oricon Charts and has sold 10,193 copies. Originally the CD only version of the single was set to feature Love Paradox (Bach Logic Remix) as the fifth track on the single, however before its release this was removed from the tracklist.
There’s one thing about Love Paradox that I want to talk about. (Well actually, there’s a lot of things). But mainly, Love Paradox is possibly Leah’s strongest single to date. Instead of doing happy bubble-gum pop songs, this time around, she opts for a much more edgier urban feel. The song is filled with a very addicting clapping/snapping beat along synth that gives this song a very strong American feel to it. But I think that most stunning thing about this song are Leah’s vocals. Even though for the most part, they are still digitally enhanced, they are still so much better than before, since she sings in a safer lower register (unlike in other songs where she struggles to reach those high notes). I guess that’s why I enjoyed the bridge most because of how it was void of the vocal enhancements. Oh yeah, and one final thing about this song to make it oh so better. This song is catchy, and I’m not kidding. It has already reached a play count of 116 for me, and as soon as you listen to this song, you’ll be singing along to it thanks to a lot of it’s English lyrics. There’s just one thing about this song I don’t like. IT’S TOO SHORT. D:< I want MOAR!
Surprisingly, even the B-side surprised, just not as much. Under The Same Sky is much calmer song, and it resembles Missing a bit, especially during the haunting chorus. However, the airy synth irritated me, along with all those alterations to Leahs voice during the chorus.
But hey, whatever, who cares about the B-side? This single still deserves this grade, despite it:
