The Pillows - My Foot
I listened to Hito iro yesterday. It's okay I guess...just that when the song was about to climax it kinda cut off cuz it was a radio rip(teh pek chekness!!!). The song's definitely more dramatic sounding than Glamorous sky, most probably complimenting the scenes in NANA2. As I predicted, squabbles are already starting in forums/bbs'. GAH. So what if Hito iro ain't punk, glam sky wasn't punk AT ALL please. If they really did punk it definitely won't sell at all(at least I know Singaporeans won't buy it lah okay?). SO, they want to make something which pleases the public AND something which has to fit into the movie nicely. People like to listen to things pleasant to their ears. Would they fancy stuff similar to Sex Pistols? I don't think so. Generally the public prefers saccharine lyrics over those which are cynical/sarcastic. Hito iro is in no way a pop song. It's a rock BALLAD for goodness sake. People just don't know their music genres, and they start to bitch on the forums, making a fool out of themselves. I'm not being biased, I'm not saying that I actually fancy Hito iro more than glam sky because of Takuro's participation. I'm just suckers for rock ballads. True enough, the new song really sounds like as though Teru could sing it if they kinda pitched it lower. Takuro was probably asked to produce the single because of GLAY's background. It's kind of similar to Black Stones' (BLAST). Oh! Most importantly, I do not dislike L'arc-en-Ciel. I love them actually. I'm not taking any sides here.
So for now, here's the overall ranking of songs by NANA starring Mika Nakashima:
1. BLOOD 2. Hito iro 3. My Medicine 4. Glamorous Sky 5. ISOLATION
That's my two cents worth.
BLACK STONES
 I seriously think Nobu rocks. =D BALDY RAWKS TOO. LOL.
...I kinda dislike Trapnest. =X
