Interesting. I totally get that. But I've always thought Marunouchi Sadistic was about her career as a rock star, described through the metaphor of one exploring their sexuality. "Marshall no nioi de tonjatte," "Maiban zecchou ni tasshite iru," "Aokan de itte choudai," and so forth. So the jazz version sounds to me like the expression of a more more mature sexuality.
