The long overdue Seiko Oomori thread

[deadgrandma]

Some people may have noticed that the Amazon listing for the item has gone missing (yet my/your order is still there if you had made it already). I sent an email asking about this and the reply was that "preorder limit has been reached"...

Interesting, makes me wonder how small/realistic Amazon's preorder batch was... I mean it was only listed for less than 48 hours before the URL disappeared. And I doubt it would shift massive quantities. Nowhere have I read that it's a limited edition product either...

where is this song from?

That's "Fan Letter"- it's not on anything, just was originally made as a song to the fans.

Original video

Oomori- Fan Letter

[Kitty]

^ As far as I know, it has not yet been released on a studio album, and was first released to the public on youtube (1/19/2015) Since then, I've seen some set lists from lives including the song, so it wouldn't surprise me if it eventually ends up on an album.

According to her radio show on 1/11, she had published an address for fan letters at the end of 2014, and decided to release the song as a reply thanking everyone who sent her new years wishes cards.

DM beat me to it, but just wanted to add, that I really like the intimate feel of the video, just focusing on her guitar, likely just recorded at home with her iphone.

There's a one on one interview with KERA and Oomori in KERAs new book.

Also, for those interested in KERA, there's a live big band arranged No Lie Sense album just released.

On September 28, you can see Kanon Fukuda (from Hello Project) and Seiko Oomori perform together at the Hello Project Official store in Akihabara. It is a spin off of the "Harosho Thousand and One Nights" event held annually in Akihabara.

To go, you need to apply for a voucher for entrance that will be mailed to you. Costs 2,160 yen and as far as my understanding goes, you will also receive a copy of either the CD only version of Magic Mirror/Sacchan no Sexy Curry OR Kanon Fukada's latest single.

They have also warned to not be surprised if Oomori is not in attendance due to her pregnancy being in late stages (!- first time I've EVER seen this warning on a live set :-p)

She's really cutting it close -- performing so near to her due date. That girl is crazy.
