I hear funk and disco in there.
This is very strange...

I'm liking the song, but I'm wondering how it fits with Sports. I hope the album sounds more like this than what I've been envisioning.

for those of you who can't use the site. I think they just ripped it off the site and put it here because it isn't in particularly good quality. in another day or so someone will have a high quality space shower rip, so we have this to tide us over. interesting video. it isn't particularly amazing, but it is certainly a lot better than the Variety era videos. what is with the moonwalk? seriously.

um I'm not sure when I will be in boston or if I will go to the Honolulu or Boston shows, but I'm from there originally and I go back quite a bit.

Does anyone else think...or feel strange about this? Something does not feel right about this, seriously!

I need to process this...Lmao.

This is really cool. The video is pretty simple, I could give or take it. It's a bit boring, but it makes me curious what the significance of all the random switching of settings/lighting but SR staying the same is all about.
But I really like the sound of the song. Definitely not what I was expecting for a Sports theme, but that's okay, I think I like this better. Maybe the album will be more sportsy, because I dunno if she could do a whole album like this and keep it interesting.
I really like all the different ways she uses her voice here though. Especially 2:57 when she sounds like she's scatting or something for a second.
Does the background music seem to fade around 1:58 for you guys? It's weird.
She's saying "Raise the dead on your turn tables" around 3:00, right? Sounds cool.
Okay, gotta stop listening now. Don't want to kill it.

EDIT:
Scribble: It feels weird to me because this is the first TJ new song release I've ever witnessed! I feel like I'm dreaming. Also feels weird because no one is complaining (yet)

That's what I've been saying that Variety was influenced by. And thus, I really don't see how it's strange. :X

yes. its like, everytime ringo releases something, either solo or with jihen, its like approaching an ex-lover you had feelings for. its like AHHHHHH but then you remember why you left eventually.

s3renity she is indeed saying raise the dead on your turntables.

And mizer, I agree. She's been influenced by all kinds of music from day dot.

This is a Shiina song, though (I think it's that it sounds better than any similar song on Variety) People are going to say it sounds like Adult, but I think it just sounds different, even for a Shiina song. Combined with the PV and moonwalking and Shiina beating up Izawa with flowers, it feels odd!

Well, I wouldn't say exactly that! XD

I finally got a chance to hear the whole song, and omgoodness I adore it. If the album sounds like this I'm going to be ecstatic.
