I thought the guitar work was adequate for the song, and not because I'm an Ukigumo fan.

I can agree that Ukigumo has improved a lot.
How many of these guitars does he own?



...I respect that he continues to use VOX even though he receives criticism for it, from both English and Japanese fans.

I know what's wrong with the song....it's too damn catchy.... not like that stupid Avril Lavigne song "Girlfriend", mind you (I HATE that song so utterly*can't properly voice her anger*), but still it's too catchy it's okay but overall TJ is a lukewarm band and this is a lukewarm song.

I'm trying hard to like the song.
I can't.
Why must that middle part be so aimless?
Anyone here with mad skillz at audio editing programs? Make a version that's the intro and the end only pleaaaase.

I feel like a effing stupid retard for not going online for the last few days and missing out a totally exciting discussion =D

I know, commenting like this will make me sound brainless and supeficial but I LOVE THE PV because

1) TJ guys rock!!!! All the guys are at their best look so far.
Uki is 100% manly with the shade.
Same to Izawa + some bonus point for drooling-like moment...what' wrong with drooling? It's just natural, insane and sexy. (once again, i stress, please don't compare him with HZM, his head-shaking is different from HZM =(. And I love both of them. So do many other people. PLS, don't hurt us )
Hata has proper hair and hot naked chest
Mr Kameda is funky as usual

All men look good in uniform
TJ guys are in uniform
They themselves are already hot
----> They are burning hot in the PV

2) Shiina's hairstyle is T_T...NO comment but I just don't really like it. She looks like my mom. But well, all for the name of arts. It looks suitable for the PV.

3) Shiina's expression is cold, if not expressionless..But her voice is awesome. Somewhat it screams "I'm back to ROCK!". Not to mention good guitar riff and funky bassline

4) Best moment: When TJ checks out those dancing-like-there-is-no-tmr chicks:...it's rare to see TJ act nasty and bitchy. SO OSCA is a real gold mine for fan services.

However, there is one minus point: focus is put wrongly on panties...Too many panties for a song >_____< Protest....somemore, they look like my grandma's ones.

Uki screaming like an old woman in the ending "fast part" is PRICELESS *laughs his ass off*
But to tell the truth, I'm sold on the song. I've listened to it several times now, and it just makes me wanna dance, which I think it's a plus in my book.
I think I'm seriously enjoying these more goofy, less serious, less extravagant (compared to "dynamite") TJ! A good adrenaline-infused-groovy-dance-pop song.

The only thing that slightly annoys me is Shiina in the video acting most of the time like a statue :p but I ripped the audio from the video, so lately I've been listening to the song just by itself.

I like the midsection and end. But not the intro :-)
This song makes me think about Load for some reason.

If your mom looks like Shiina (Ringo, I hope). Then your Happy.

You'd like to find your mother attractive?
