I do like this track yet feel like the vocal could have been a lot more. Maybe she can't do the vocal I'd have liked but it's a slight annoyance. Still like the track though.

I can't figure out the persona here.....

.....not sure if that's a bad thing or not.

Sounds like it should be the theme song for "True Blood."

Another Watering Kiss CM thing, it seems. The first batch is Dopamine, the other is Tengoku e Youkoso.

Dopamine is an Izawa song, I think.

She looks great but what is up with her singing in that one portion =X

After my first listen I have to say, I pretty much like it... reminds me of good old Utaite Miyori... =)

Utaite Myori? More like Variety. =X
I love her look though - I'm happy to see red hair again. <3
And the TJ/Watering Kiss Mint bus is lame!!!

http://www.glico.co.jp/kissmint/ preview of the song without narrator!!

http://listen.jp/store/album_5099990741951.htm Listen.Jp lists it as "tengoku e youkoso/dopamint!" single .. double a-side? i thought ringo hated those (as well as best albums :X)


edit: official english title: "Where's Heaven/DOPA-MINT" by iTunes! and it looks like tengokue yokoso wasnt cut at all!



it would be good if someone merged these posts into the tengoku product review thread, and rename its title to "tengoku e youkoso/dopamint!" =D

Well, I loved the new song. Since I am a huge fan of phase 2 (Izawa-Ukigumo), it has a lot of the elements that made me fall in love with Jihen, specially the mix of jazz and rock. The vocals sound really emotive to me, and well, I tend to like her songs in english.

There is a lot of good songs in japanese that when I read the lyrics translated I can't make a point, like 3min, for an example... That must be because of languages' philosophy standards, if you know what I mean. This new song, together with La salle de bain and Kachiikusa makes some of my favourite lyrics from her. In japanese, nothing can take the place of Tsumi to Batsu, to me.

Weird grammar? Not a problem to me, maybe because I'm not a native english speaker too...

About the possible new album focused on mental issues, it would be amazing!
