How often do you listen to SR/TJ now?
I still play Shiina Ringo nearly every day (During my morning commute). KZK never fails to blow me away ANY time I listen to it (Although I don't really consider it as 'easy to listen to' as something like Adult). I'll go through phases of boredom and enthusiasm for the other albums until I eventually stop playing them, but I don't see myself getting bored of KSK. It's all about Shuukyou. Just puts you in the mood.
I'm in a difficult situation, because although I have a wide variety of brilliant albums from Japan/US on my ipod, there's just something about her music that just 'clicks' with me, and I can't find in any other artist so far (Even if they're technically better singers, etc.). There's no doubt about it, though -- I'm still young, and my musical taste will develop further, so I'm guessing that if she doesn't release more music over the next few years, I'll move on (Except the occasional KSK listen). |

I still listen to her every day pretty much but usually just her solo stuff up to KZK, I seldom listen to any Tokyo Jihen or post KZK music at all nowadays unless it's Dynamite out or some other live ? there was a point where I'd only listen to Shiina/Jihen music and nothing else but these days I listen to lots of other music! but I still consider early-career solo Shiina as among the absolute best of the music I listen to.

I still listen to them everyday, especially to SR's stuff. By TJ, I just listen to Kyoiku, Adult, OSCA and Killer Tune lol.

Pretty much what was said by Bingo and Orenji
I usually listen to her everyday, except when I'm into some new artist. For example, now I'm obsessed with UA and am trying to get to know her discography. After that, it's back to Ringo or listen to new things. I have a lot of discographies piling up on my HD, btw ^^; |

My SR listening comes in waves. I've been a hardcore music fan for 30 years, so there is a lot of other music I also love that competes for my attention. On average, I listen to one of her CD's about three times a week. No bias towards any particular era, even though I like her solo work best.

I've been an SR fan since 2002 or something.
I don't even have her music on my hard drive anymore. I guess I'm too disillusioned to even continue listening to her stuff anymore.

I had to wait 20 years for a new Steely Dan album. There is always hope! |

I didn't go as far as Justriingo, but I've been Shiina-free for a month now. I've had a steady stream of new music to obsess about. But sooner or later I'll get a craving for Jusui Negai again.

I listen to far too much music to listen to any artist every single day. I usually go through phases of listening to an artist. I haven't listened to Shiina in about a fortnight, but when I do next I'll probably listen to her a lot for a few days.
