(explaining Choosin Texas to a leftist) okay so you need to understand that American Country music has a Sunni/Shia split between Nashville and Austin.
@ChumHumCEO “Maybe you would like the sound of a band in a room if you wore earplugs that make it sound like it isn’t a band in a room” well yes!
But regardless of my snarky sarcasm, this is great advice. House shows got way better when I started wearing earplugs.
@aki7757r I’ve always been of the theory that Shibuya-Kei and Pico Pop was less of a genre and more just a bunch of people making a bunch of different kinds of music who happened to all work with and know each other.
@_ccxo You’re such a weirdo for this. “I’m not transphobic I like Kim Petras!” but you spend all day pitting women against each other because you clearly have nothing better to do, and you’re saying nothing to the people in the comments being transphobic. You don’t care. Don’t pretend.
@shibuyakeifiles 151 hours of Shibuya Kei is crazy but just wanted to let you know you included “Sometimes Feel Gloomy” by Cigarett in the playlist twice. Their CD Single labeled “Les Cigarett” only contains the song “Sometimes Feel Gloomy,” and is labeled “Les Cigarett” by clerical error.
What exactly are the ethics of covering a Japanese song that features broken English? Or has English words but is sung within the rules of the Japanese language? Part of me wants to cover heavenly star and another part of me wants to keep the lyrics “no border between the us”
@moneyjumpin I think this is awesome, like so extremely brilliant, and I do think it’s pushing the envelope.. but the style of production *is* extremely reminiscent of what Yasutaka Nakata was doing almost two decades ago and also heavily interpolates one of his songs (5ive Star by Capsule)
We are deeply saddened to hear the great Arlene Smith of The Chantels has passed. A pioneer of the Girl Groups, she co-wrote and recorded “Maybe” at the age of 16 and was a huge inspiration to Ronnie. May her soul rest among the angels. 🕊️
