Remember that when you derail threads with talk of "soul mates" and KamedaxKen Hirai gay hijinks. Off-topic happens when there's nothing new to talk about on a subject. This place would be pretty damn boring without it.

I'm actually going to pre-order this one based on the leading singles. I skipped Variety due to it's lack of quality, but I don't have that fear for Sports. Of course, it has to compete with the new FAKE? album being released on the same day. I'm curious how FAKE? sounds now after their second major lineup change.

I think it's one of the best songs of SR's in years, even if it takes a little while to grow on you.

What's the moral of "Sannin Kichisa"? Aren't the lyrics about, like, sleeping babies? How is it so super relevant to modern culture? Just curious here; maybe I missed something.

Maybe Entrynº1 was referring to the whole Pandora's Box thing (well, if that has something to do with Japanese modern culture) (?) XD.

Tamatebako...so that was supposed to be the song that followed Yukiguni on Adult. Or maybe it was originally part of the original song idea but was edited out for length? No its because it was stepping back into KSK!

huh

OMG, thanks for posting!!

Edit:
Okay, I think I don't really like it :\... It's so Jackson Five, which was a good thing in Roudousha but not in this case... I guess it will end up growing on me... maybe it won't. I don't feel like listening to it again D:... Bad thing.

Scribble R · 2010.01.25, 03:24 PM

First listen, didn't like it so much...thought the English was awkward. Liked it on the second listen. Actually this is making me look forward to the album.

ShadyNook · 2010.01.25, 03:48 PM

ooh yeah the grammar is awkward. but i'm used to it.

we can only hope she's practicing english so much so she can tour internationally!

the arrangement is really straightforward. thats a bit unusual for them. no fancy piano or guitar fills.

I liked the song from the 15 second clip. there werent any surprises in the full version. the commercial snippet captured the whole feel of the song quite easily.

im sorry but if we are passing time in a ringo forum waiting for the next album by talking about HF and hiraiken and kameda being gay lovers, I think it has a LOT more on-topic potential than Lady Gaga, who isn't even related to anything at hand.

kachiikusa is pretty bland, not a big fan, blech.
