Default Songs that remind you of SR/TJ!

Last night I was listening to "Mrs. P", a song by the Spanish musician Iván Ferreiro which I love, and I found myself humming "Mellow" by SR, so I came up with the idea of making a thread where we can post songs that remind us of our beloved Shiina Ringo and Tokyo Jihen. I don't know if this has been done before. If that's the case, I'm so sorry - delete the thread.

Well, this is "Mrs. P" by Iván Ferreiro, which reminded me of "Mellow":

Iván Ferreiro - Mrs. P



And this is Vanessa Paradis' "Be My Baby", which sounds a little like "Koufukuron" to me:

Vanessa Paradis - Be My Baby


Post songs that remind you of SR (apart from the ones she covered herself, of course )!

Well, there's a H ZETT M song on his Pianohead album which reminds me of Service, which would make sense considering he composed both. xD

When I first heard Kachi Ikusa I immediately thought of Acko - Hoshikuzu Namida. The intros seem kinda similar imo.

One phrase in the song Manteca (which I performed as a colorguard member with my highschool's marching band last year) really reminds me of the endoing of Kuronekodow.

Watch from 1:25 to 1:30 to hear the part I'm talking about. I can't find the phrase in the original song. :/
