A two hour break from jrock

OK let's take a break from jrock for a week.
I was just looking around and found this jpop song:
Nijikan dake no bakansu
by Utada Hikaru and featuring Shiina Ringo (I like the latter)

Watching this video, I just can't ignore their noses. Yes Noses!!
What happened to their noses? Both singers' noses look unnaturally high.
Is it a nose job? Is it just video special effect?
I don't want to mention Michael Jackson but it's sort of ending up like that.
I mean if you want to do the job, at least do the Asian version. White person nose does not look too nicely on Asian woman...
Anyway that was how much a distraction it was to my video watching experience.

I still get charmed by Shiina Ringo's voice and I think I always will.
Such a magnet voice. Love!

Nijikan dake no bakansu (I have no idea what this title is about)
by Utada Hikaru and Shiina Ringo

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")

Mellow Monday

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
