Music in my veins

Hello blog.  I have not been listening to jrock for a while. Detoured into salsa for a bit LOL.  But I came back yesterday and listened to this old obscure artist that I still really like. Amano Tsukiko. And it still calls out to me so much! So I guess my soul is still gravitating towards my jrock/jpop after all this time.  Yay! She is not SUPER popular but I love her voice. Especially in this song. I have to say I didn't listen to all of her songs, but this one is definitely one of the classics for me.  Amano Tsukiko - Same (sa-me two characters in Japanese, it means shark . Not the English word "same")

It's Monday morning! Let's get mellow with old jpop. My old favorite jpop band Judy and Mary. She always cheers me up. I am in love with the guitar riff in the second half!  I wish the band would have lasted longer so that I could have seen them live. Oh well, that will have to go on my long list of small incomplete things in life.  Lover Soul - by Judy and Mary

Recently I have been way too busy... I have started acting and it is a lot of work. I am also feeling very tired. I need a break. How about some orange sunshine? Orange sunshine sounds good. not blue, not pink, Orange!! I am a little overworked my brain is sort of exploding right now. Hope you are having a good day!! Let's listen to this 100% positive vibe jpop by Judy and Mary -- "Hello Orange Sunshine" is the name of the song!!

Hello it's 2019 already! And February lol. Anyway, I am pretty busy recently, trying to make ends meet as I am still searching for a job. So I just found this song, it is not really jrock. But kind of jpop and strange. But the lady in the music video was super pretty! is it Aimer herself? Really pretty person and dress. And the rabbits were really creepy. So I am just here to play you a song with creepy rabbits and a pretty girl. Yeah if you are really bored....

Time to go back to Jrock? Someone told me about the jrock band The Back Horn. I didn't know about them until I checked them out recently. The first song didn't impress me. But I liked this song. I think the singer is singing with all of him. Not hiding anything behind. And very sincere and true too. And he doesn't care that his face gets distorted and not that aesthetically appealing to the audience. I do like that. He's not AKB47(name of a Jpop girly band) and so it's ok not to look beautiful and beautiful only.  I like true singers. Let's check them out:

Still straying away from jrock for a little bit... Yoko Ando is one of my favorite Japanese pop singers. One of her songs really means a lot to me. Maybe I will write about that later. Or not. I have to say this song is definitely not Ms. Ando's usual style. This song features the Afro guy in the video, Takafumi Ikeda, I think he is a singer too, but I am not familiar with who he is. I think this song was done in HIS style, as he seems to be a dancer and seems to have made Ms. Ando dance with him as well. Which is quite fun to watch.  It is definitely a light and happy song. And the cute dance! Definitely try to watch the video haha. Quite entertaining. The title of the song is "Ringo Satsujin jiken", literally "The Apple Murder". And I am lost at what they want to convey by this song. However, in the case of this song, I do not think it is too important to dissect the lyrics, but rather to just enjoy the listening experience and not think too much. Her...
