A Yoko Kanno composition interpreted by the genial Maaya Sakamoto. Platinum or Purachina probably is the most loved CCS opening theme if I were to be asked! Ah, those Cardcaptor Sakura days!

Ryvius' Rating:
7.5/10 Anything by Yoko Kanno and Maaya Sakamoto is synonymous to masterpiece for me! Ever since Yakusoku wa Iranai (their first collaboration for Escaflowne), I have been a huge fan of both Yoko Kanno and Maaya Sakamoto... I don't think I've ever heard even one bad song from those two together. Even if Platinum isn't my favorite YokoxMaaya song, it's still very good. What I've always liked about Yoko Kanno is her amazing orchestral and string arrangements. Both her J-Pop songs and BGM tracks have that in common, which is actually quite rare. Composers generally don't bother making complex string arrangements for pop songs anymore...

Look what I found! It's a younger Maaya singing Platinum live in a classic video! She really is oozing cool! :3

I'm a dreamer...
Hidden power...
My world
is made of dreams, love, and worries.
But there are still things lying hidden
that I can't even imagine
Facing the sky, like all the different trees,
I'm gazing right at you.
I want to find my dream... I want to make it come true...
There is nothing that I can't overcome
if I only believe.
Just like singing, just like miracles,
"feelings" can change everything!
Without a doubt... Without a doubt...
It's almost surprising!
I'm a dreamer...
Hidden power...
A world yet unseen...
No matter what awaits me there,
even if it's not the ideal,
I won't be afraid.
The birds travel on the wind
on a journey from today to tomorrow.
I want to tell you... I want to shout it...
I am but one entity in this world.
But like a prayer, like a star,
even with a small light, someday,
I want to be
stronger and stronger.
There are limitless possibilities,
right here in my grasp.
(It's gonna be your world.)
I want to find my dream... I want to make it come true...
There is nothing that I can't overcome,
if I only believe.
Just like singing, just like miracles,
"feelings" can change everything!
Without a doubt... Without a doubt...
It's almost surprising!
