is the tenth album by Chara, which was released on August 31, 2005. It was released independently, and only 2,000 copies were produced. These were distributed between her online fan-club, as well as at live concerts. Chara describes Something Blue's style as much darker than her other work.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url=http://www.excite.co.jp/music/close_up/0703_chara?c=interview )〕 She self-produced the album, completely writing and arranging it, along with recording it in her own home.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url=http://charaweb.net/archives/106/ )〕 She created the album despite not having a music contract, as "music was her life, and something she couldn't just stop."〔 Chara describes that time in her life as painful and depressing, and re-listening to the recordings brought back such memories. This is her rationale as to why the album has not been re-released since.〔 Two months prior to the release of this album, Chara had released a digital single, . This was used as the theme song for the Japanese release of the movie March of the Penguins.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url=http://www.ongen.net/search_detail_track/track_id/tr0000104100/ )〕 While this was not included in the album, an extended EP of this was later released on iTunes. It featured three ''Something Blue'' tracks (''Love Me'', , ''Mirror Ball''). The EP has since been removed from iTunes. The guitar chords from the song were later used in her comeback single under Universal Japan, . The song is a self-cover of the song ''Mama Says'' that Chara wrote for Misia for her ''Singer for Singer'' album in 2004. ==Track listing== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Something Blue (album)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
