Well if it's any consolation to you, a few of my Obi's from my opened Shiina singles went a bit wobbly cause I left then near a hot scanner :/

I have nothing constructive to add to this thread other than Aozora is one of my all-time favorite Ringo tracks. every time I listen to it, I imagine a warm summer evening down by the river with the cicadas buzzing. that's the stuff of dreams, right there.

rinne highlight's title is in japanese and katakana. I'm not sure why it would be in english, but as has been discussed before, the lyrics are a partial cover of a song by Susanna Hoffs, No Kind of Love, which Ringo took sole credit for and utilized katakana and alternate writing systems with when printing the music to get around copyright infringement. it is possible she was denied permission to cover the song? or perhaps her label refused to pay the royalties? either way Ringo pretty much straight up took the lyrics.

See thread "Shiina Ringo: plagiarizer extraordinare" or something like that.

The sheer cheek of her. What's next? Her stealing a Petrolz song and passing it off as a Tokyo Incidents A-Side?

The nerve of it all >___________>
