Default replacing shiina in tokyo jihen

hypothetically, if shiina were to leave tokyo jihen, and the member of TJ wanted to go on without her, who would do a half descent job as a replacement frontwoman.

ofcourse, noone can replace shiina etc -but in terms of the right sound, attitude, smarts, image- who might fit the bill, ie. be able to kick it with tokyo jihen

Maou or Lena.


EDIT FOR WHATEVER'S SAKE: (Humor me and assume its Jihen with Izawa on keys and Hirama on guitar just for easiness) No ones gonna say that the band isn't full of good musicians, so they can be fronted by anyone. Heck, slide Hirama over closer to center stage and even make Uki your second guitarist and I still think the band could tear through some. ...In fact, that could even be better...

that very thought ran over my head while i was thinking of examples. the idea of a male fronted tj kinda makes me think of radiohead with japanese lyrics

ideal TJ without SR:

main vox/guitar/leader: Hirama
main guitar/second vox:Izawa
bass: Kameda
drums: Hata
Keyboards/another main vox O.o: HZM

but me and maou could replace SR too XD
we will constantly change our places
one live will be maou, other live will be me
none will point the difference! (O.o ...maybe JR)

^hehehe Lena-chan.

I don't see how TJ could survive without SR. It's her idea in the first place. It'll be something like Apple without Steve Jobs...

Still, I'm intrigued by the prospect of Lena and Maou being in TJ. I think it might be the best TJ ever! Plus, imagine portuguese bossa nova TJ songs... woohoo!

Ahhh, I think your idea of Matt Bellamy would be great. It's likely that he can sing even higher than Shiina Ringo. His range is definitely wiiiiiide.

What a ridiculous post. Has this board already sunk to this level?

I think we were going to duct tape the both of you together and claim you're Siamese twins because it would so push more records.
