I was in Kabukicho today and they were playing the Nagaku Mijikai Matsuri PV on a massive screen outside a shopping centre. I kinda don't mind it. Still not sold on the autotune but shit, at least it's not NIPPON, which I've heard like 10 times since I got here three days ago.
That being said, it's no big secret that the two artists are inspired by each other, and budddhist themes (hokotesama is right there in the title) and sex aren't exactly new ground for Ringo. She probably asked Mukai to do it. And the track certainly sounds more like her than anything Zazen Boys have ever done. I haven't heard the full version though, I wouldn't know if it turned into some kind of technical rock jam with weird time signatures in it. |

It's been confirmed not autotune, but a vocoder, just FYI.
What does that Zazen Boys line mean, anyway? I knew it had to be some sort of intro or something because I noticed it popping up a lot on every album. That JPS link to the video is dead, btw. |

Doesn't work for me, but JPS is just 404ing for me here. I assumed it was either the hotel or Japan as a whole that have blocked it.
And in the most general and simplified sense I think the line basically means "nothing lasts forever and I will come back from this", particularly in the context of a relationship ending. |

Not sure if it was available before you posted it, but it's already been blocked.

The more I hear these songs, the more I'm starting to think that Kamisama might have been something that's been around for a while whereas Coke song was slapped together in a couple days...
Who is girl in Coke song PV btw... she's stunning. Oh wait. Says at the end of the full PV... Saya from Elevenplay. Is this Ringo's new choice dance troupe? Both these PVs are better than the songs (just like Expo 14's visuals were better than the performances). Coke song one is quite good apart from the Ringo and Uki shots haha. Also, Coke song's concept/story is pretty damn similar to the story in Midnight Seijun Isei Kouyuu, just saying :-p

I really think this may be the best 1-2 punch of music videos she's done.
http://www.jpopsuki.tv/video/Shiina-...51579fd45ea7c1 I'm pretty certain in hindsight that it was totally intentional to show us the Ringo/Uki clips in full beforehand. Kamisama is awesome, obviously. Feels like a mini-movie. Pretty good tune as well. Cinematography in both is great. Last edited by thefro : 2015.08.03 at 05:48 PM. |

The choreographer is MIKIKO, who I believe also did/does Perfume's choreo.
