I think of Lupin III (Which is predictable)

Vogue is creeping up my 'most played SR songs on repeat' list. The second part of the song when she sings in English is great.

Tokyo Jihen should really be making pop songs of this caliber. SG should be Phase 2's sound in general. Perhaps it would have been if Variety wasn't Ukigumo and Izawa-driven.

Am I hearing things, or does the "hoshi" guy laugh RIGHT at the end of Roudousha? It sounds really twisted as well.

(Only have laptop speakers at the moment)

Irokoizata reminds me of a Christmas song, somehow. I think it has a similar opening to Hurry X-Mas by L'arc or something...

I'm liking the album as a whole a lot more now. And it introduced me to Karisome Otome, which I looove. Where were you all my life, Shiina?! Or, more appropriately, where was I?

Ohh and in Futaribocchi, I really love how enthusiastically she sings, especially for "Do" and "Ra/La" and the link. It just sounds so cute.

s3r3nity, you haven't heard Heisei Fuuzoku?
Or you just didn't know the Death Jazz version?

I hear "honnouji" (本能寺?) in Roudousha (around 4:20).

People in this community (myself included) tend to assume that everyone here has already heard everything.

So all this time you've been a real virgin for the DEATH JAZZ version of.. Temporary Virgin? I suppose what this means for you is that you haven't already played it to.. DEATH.

Now in all seriousness, it's been out for nearly a total of 3 years now, starting from roughly half a year before it was ever tacked onto the end of any deluxe versions of Heisei Fuuzoku. We (the fanbase) got to hear both of the non-album versions (DEATH JAZZ and HITOKUCHIZAKA) of Karisome Otome near the beginning of the Sakuran marketing campaign, month(s) before the movie reached Japanese theaters and before the Kono Yo no Kagiri single even came out.

For awhile, Karisome Otome (DEATH JAZZ ver.) was an iTunes exclusive, and the only way to get it in CD quality was to participate in bidwars against other fans on Yahoo! Japan Auctions for a small handful of industry insider CDs that were never supposed to be available to the public. Often the bidwars would jump above 10,000yen. I have several of these CDs, and they are almost worthless now.

You should probably check our index for anything else you might have missed.
