One outta two ain't bad. 8) Have you tried George R.R. Martin's _A Game of Thrones_?
It's a doorstop fantasy like Jordan but far better written IMHO.

Well, they are 'kids books'.  Depends on how young you were.  Now, I suspect it'd
be whether you were willing to put up with the obvious Christian allegory - I know
a lot of people get frustrated with that, but

I managed to pick up the Pioneer 'Best of Best' at an anime con.  I also have
a CD
with the same songs, in Japanese.  No idea how different the lyrics are...

Talent for Love is on the Best of Best CD...not sure what Tenchi-specific CDs are
available but I'm CERTAIN there are some.

Pretty close!  The BoB CD has a lyrics sheet inside it...
