I've been listening to Osaka Syunkasyuto (大阪☆春夏秋冬) quite a lot lately, in part because they actually do a lot of stuff with a classic rock sound (including some good covers), but also because I'm hooked on Maina's vocals.
This one starts out with about four minutes of very entertaining ultra-violence, then turns into a great retro-R&B ballad.
Such dramaaaaaaaaaaaaaa in the PV, but her voice and performance totally hook me in...



Edit: Oh, Youtube/Google ads... :mikihead:

While I was watching this, I kept thinking "She's like a Disney princess. She would be perfect for a Japanese version of the Disney Channel, if they ever had one."

And then I checked her other videos on YouTube. She is a Disney princess.

(the avex label threw me off.)

I found the song through a weekly Oricon video someone uploads on YouTube, so I went through more or less the same process once I started looking her up. :lol:

Though the avex channel did lead me to this, which confused me for a little bit.

Looks like a pretty entertaining one-woman show. That unicorn costume has me curious now. :lol:

Hmm, in some of her costumes she looks a bit like Yossi.

A much more entertaining Yossi than actual Yossi.


I'm sure I've said this before, but Shinozaki Ai has a way way better voice than the description "gravure idol turned singer" would lead one to think.



If anyone cares, it's on iTunes pre-order.

And she shot this PV in my neck of the woods too. What. I'm still hurting over missing Crystal Kay and Perfume (the latter for reasons outside my control.) I really gotta be more in tune with what is going on in the local Jpop scene.

I know some H!P members who would love this video from the Dutch new wave electronic Hip Hop group De Jeugd Van Tegenwoordig.

From the official BABYMETAL channel…



Damn. :blink:

Don't think they can pull it off? They just drew 26,000 at Yokohama Arena…
