Oh, good! I wasn't the only one that heard "pussy". I knew it had to be "bushi" after my initial astonishment went away. Easily the most throwaway track on the compilation.

Did anyone else besides me get the bluray box set?

Tell me that after a few more listens. Serious earworm/grower, you'll see. I wasn't keen on it on release but over the last few years it's become a major favorite.

It's one of those, eh? I'll give it more chances as I keep listening to the album.

Mitsugetsushou has surprisingly good quality for a collection of live songs! I'm always weary of live albums that aren't also video. My reasoning is that, if the sound quality is possibly going to suffer, I should at least get some visual stimulation to go along with it.

Gonna pass Mitsugetsushou. Good listen, but ultimately stuff I already own. 密偵物語 is my favourite here.

The full version of 熱愛発覚中 is maybe a bit too repetitive, but I still like it a lot. The music video is great, it's just really fun and Ringo looks amazing in it!

I really want to listen to Ukina now, but I also want to wait until I get my copy ;A;
And I'm considering picking up the first press of Mitsugetsu Shou before it disappears, even though I've already splurged on Ukina and Live...

[Maou]

Gahdamn Electric Mole is even more mind-blowing than ever.

Gahdamn the GX version of Aozora is as shitty as ever.

[Tokyo Jihad]

It's not "better" but I always liked it ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[Maou]

"Gee-taaah!" *sloppily plays the same note 500 times*

OG and Manabiya XTC versions 4 life.

I just realized this was a thing, and got excited. (and annoyed that I JUST made a CD order.) But after hearing the Nakata song, I'm not really feeling it. And Perfume and Ringo are the only two Japanese artists I'm really following anymore, so it makes me even more disappointed. :/

This isn't going to sound right, but.... You're still alive? Here I was getting out of the grieving stage and accepting that you had joined the ranks of EMF members to cross the Cocytus.

Welcome back!
