Shun is one of my favourite tracks on the album. There are a few hollow songs on SG, but Shun isn't it.

I think, with SG, there's no clear cut 'greatest song' like with some of the other albums.

And Lustau, please keep posting, forever. That was a very insightful and educational review.

EDIT: Instead of SG, Shiina Ringo should have done a spy concept album for her Mayonaka spy album (And instead of a MaruSad remix bonus track, we'd have gotten a Mayonaka remix bonus track)

Shun is certainly, without a doubt, the best thing on that album. :{/

Well, according to fluffie the sock.

I take that back, then. Shun is awful and hollow.

Out of all the songs on SG, Shun is the one that will stand the test of time the most. I'm pretty confident about this.

random but I thought I'd point it out cuz I don't think anyone has yet

in togatta teguchi the kanji for mouth, which is the guchi in teguchi, looks like 口 and they wrote a square there for guchi. it looks like a square already, so it doesn't stick out, but they actually used the square charater instead of the the character for mouth to fit the symmetry with Maru Chiten Kara.

sorry, but somebody already did long ago (shortly after the tracklist was released I think?)
The "maru" and "guchi" are also darkened on the back of the CD case, so it's pretty visible...

wtf do we have a pedo icon?




edit: after Amai Yamai, Hayari, and Togatta Teguchi, part of me wants Ringo to quit Jihen, start a rap band and continue making music like she has been doing with Mummy-D. Maybe experiment with some new performers. But Ringo's voice, ironically enough, is really suited for this type of music in some weird way. I want her to release her rap/rock album, XD.
