well, the first thing I think is the 1st word of Gunjou biyori's lyrics XD
I guess in Adult don't have any shinjuku reference, so is Gunjou the last song she did a reference?

I have a strong feeling that Uki-chan had an unhappy childhood.

Lil Uki: Look mummy I'm strumming!! *guitar strings snapped and whipped him in the face* Ouch!! Oh God I'll never stum again!!

Shiina: Ok Uki can you strum this progression?
Uki: What? strum? NOOOOooooooo *runs from studio*

Usually it takes me a few listens of an album to form an opinion on it, but I loved this CD from the very start. And it only took a few more listens after the first to convince me to order some of her other stuff. And it's still hands down my favorite of anything she's done. Some tracks here are better than others, but the whole thing's just so fantastic throughout that it's really hard to choose any favorites.

I don't know if I post ITT before but...
this album is the best among the bests
there isn't no other album that fits so well my personallity and my taste like this
I say personallity cause the main reason because I like SR is cause each song descript my personallity/soul/emotions, and SS is a complete and exactly description of what I am (but don't think that if you like SS you would like the real me XD)
I think is more deep
I said so many times that SS/GX/ZCS's SR is the best SR ever
I miss you my goddess i_i

AGREED! I can't think of an album that I feel is more "me".

Alright. I never understood this Shinjuku-kei thing. Shibuya-kei I know - Cornelius, Fantastic Plastic Machine etc. The sound is very distinct. But Shinjuku-kei? Other than the lyrics, what is it about SR's music that makes it Shinjuku-kei? Who else can be considered Shinjuku-kei (other than Tomosaka Rie) ?

Shinjuku-kei was actually just Ringo playing off Shibuya-kei. The term "Shinjuku-kei" didn't really exist. She was just kind of like "ha ha, I'm 'Shinjuku-kei'" but it wasn't a real term. It was just her XD

Have you read the unauthorized biography? It was in there. If not, I might have to put it up again, for everyone...
