That's probably not a good example, but I don't like the song as much anymore.
.....and you didn't even stop the car? that's some cold shit.

The one I'll never like is "Get It Up For Love", or whatever it is called. It is like she was trying to relive the glory days of being 11 years old, or something, dancing to horrendous disco.

Changed my mind about both Honou and Sharuba after hearing the lives from JCHI. Both amazingly performed on that, highlights from a very flawed DVD.

Hahaha, after feeling that thud resonate through my car, I was pretty convinced that the rabbit was dead. I then closed my windows to cut myself off from the rest of the world so I could be alone in my time of mourning.

Actually, I think something funny was going on, because when I drove back down that road in the light, the bunny was missing! Anyone remember that episode of Lost from season 1 with Jack's dad in the jungle? Yeeeah, I'm a bit creeped out. I hope the bunny doesn't haunt me.


Anyway, I was kind of joking about hating Crawl now. But it is true that I haven't listened to it since.

And about the Toumei Ningen adult version ordeal, I've tried to get myself to dislike it so that I can understand people's feelings for it, but I really can't get myself to do it. After listening to the Dynamite Out version some more, I agree that the use of guitar sounds pretty neat, but this one is still spiffy. So, I dunno. Sonderbar!

Because it doesn't sound like Ringo? Sounan is pure Ringo, while Gunjo Biyori isn't. (Because it's written by HZM anyway.) And that intro reminds me of that very annoying Tsuki ni Makeinu intro which gets on my nerves all the time. But the song actually gets better towards the end, and now that Phase 2 fucked it up real bad, the Phase 1 version is even more energetic and enjoyable in comparison.

(sorry Phase 2 fans!)

I can understand Gunjo. It's the most poppy sounding thing shes done. (Course, I liked it.)

What I don't understand is

I couldn't stand Akane Sasu Kiro Terasaredo for the longest time, but when it did happen to play for some reason I was drawn to the English part of the song.
At the moment I can't go back and listen to Kyouiku. Ringo's voice comes off too whiney and I'm like "uhhh my ears....must listen to adult..."

well, when I started to like SR, a friend record a "best SR selection on his opinion", and memai was in it...
and I was like "why this song is here?!"
when I heard it on a melancholic mode I liked sooooooooo much >_< now is one of my favorites

and in the begin I didn't pay attention to kyogenshou, izonshou, shuukyou and souretsu
...no need to say that now I just love these songs o.o
