Guess we'll just have to agree to disagree then!

I really like where you went with this metaphor haha :-D

My whole point was that a one night stand is fine if you don't do it every day...

But if we are comparing this to shallow/romantic sex, I think she is selling herself like a true queen of kabukicho.

Not at all into this preview, or the kuriyama collaboration. I wasn't that impressed by Sports though I saw it as a fresh way to start over. I guess it ended up being that but I haven't enjoyed a single melody that came after it.

I met Kuriyama's manager a few times. If anyone wants me to ask anything about that collaboration, I'd still be willing to try even though I am kind of nauseated by it.

Considering SR's themes and motifs in the past, it'd be surprising if this album wasn't Drama.

About the winter theme...hm...well, Kenka Joutou had a 'cold' PV and the whole kabuki theatre element with Hata and the JCHI performances. Then we had Yukigini (Snow Country), which transitioned into Kabuki.

Change of weather is a common metaphor for heightened emotions and stuff in plays, right? I'm thinking Shakespeare.

And we haven't actually had an album title that alludes to a fictional channel. Education, Adult, Variety and Sports are all non-fiiiiiiiiickshun. Saying that, though, the album could be 'Weather'.

Drama sounds more exciting though.

My expectations were low after their last album, but the new song sounds great. It bumped me out of a ten month EMF absence.


I think ドラマ would be such an epic title for their next album.

And we now have a basic idea of what it will be. The title is 'The Reverberation / Fly Me To Heaven'. Both sides are worthy of A-side status, so that's how they are being treated. One of the songs, "Any Girl Will Do," will also be used in a commercial for Shiseido's Maquillage, which starts airing Feb. 20.

Is "Fly me to heaven" the English name for "Tengoku e Youkoso" or are we talking about three different new songs here?

So, was Dopamine worthy of A-Side status, then? =P
