I like this better than fujunbutsu

Plastic tree is a japanese rock band that to me they are famous for the song "Fujunbutsu". It was a good song, but I felt it was a little sad and desperate. So it is nice to find this little delightful song they have sang called The rain of June or "Rokugatsu no Ame". I was slightly surprised that the vocal was able to pull this off and sing it less garage-nirvana style and more alternative-remioromen style. Nicely done Plastic Tree! you are not plastic at all.

Rain into the Darkness

 Recently I am just obsessed with this song. It is Shina Ringo at her younger years. It is such a mesmerizing song!! Exciting and intriguing but not too much. Yeppp. I am in love with this song. Although I do like her as a band (Tokyo Jihen) better, I would listen to her solo stuff any day. Her charming voice has always been an inspiration to me. Let's hear this.

JROCK still calls me

Image
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")

Where have all the flowers gone?

This song called Where have all the flowers gone was done by Lara, singer from a Taiwanese group Nan Quan Ma Ma. She also has another new single out called "I didn't". Interestingly, both songs can be played together and a new sound is created. Her voice is very soft and pure. I really liked her other song "rainy day" as well. As a 22 year old singer she is doing a pretty good job producing her songs. The song reminds me of angels talking to each other in somewhere full of roses and sunlight. I am so going to sing this at my next karaoke visit.
