Uh, in like the first episode, I think they said it meant to fool around with someone, like, to do naughty things with them. Which sorta fits 'cuz 'The Vespa Woman' hits people with her guitar, and if you're a pervert, you get a horn. (That eventually turns into a robot thingy) (Don't question the show, every answer you get just induces more questions). v.v

I'd have to say my favorite japanese music group would have to be the jazz group PE'Z. I'll have to check out the pillows and m-flo as well as all the others, and i have yet to see all of FLCL

Hey Erin. If you like Ayano Tsuji, then you might like Suneohair. When I heard the video you put into this blog, it reminded me of Suneohair. Sunehoair is really underrated and my favorite J-pop band out there.

I don't know any of them... sorry! My favorite singer is Utada Hikaru. I don't know a lot of Japanese groups/singers, just those who are kindda well known like Ayumi Hamasaki, Asian kung-fu generation, Flow... o, and look for Mizuki Nana on youtube, you'll see, she's so good!

Pretty enjoyable, but I think since I have such a short attention span, I need my music to be a little more... not "special", but maybe "different" for me to listen to it for long periods of time.

NATSUKAWA RIMI!! x3 I love Natsukawa Rimi!! My aunt in Okinawa made me listen to her when we were driving to the beach....I ended up liking her music a lot!

m-flo is pretty awesome, too!

Gaijin — Tue, 17 Jul 2007 08:27:13 -0000

Oh, I love Rimi Natsukawa's music, especially when she sings てぃんさぐぬはな. 島歌 is also very nice, she does it even better than The BOOM.

I also like The Pillows a lot :D
