It was also my first time hearing the song ever (i hadn’t gotten too far into his solo discography at the time) and yet ended up being my favorite song of the show
@c000game I was largely referring to people confidently arguing that listening to western music is a niche experience in japan despite having zero clue what’s actually popular. A lot of it is just conjecture and way off the mark
It’s funny seeing people who have never been to japan argue about which western bands are popular in japan. none of u guys know what u are talking about.
@JonMasterChief Yeah popular western music usually takes a long time to catch on here. There have been some early 2010s hits that i’ve recently started hearing everywhere
@picopicogamer There have definitely been certain bands that have made their mark on modern japanese culture, especially older acts like the beatles or carpenters. I’d say most of the older people i know either like them or are at aware of their music to some degree.
