 Top 10 pillows songs 2000-2009
There seems to be a general trend that the people of IM love the older and "middle" pillows stuff, and are not disliking their newer stuff. There's already been a thread about the top 10 pillows songs of the '90s, and considering the top 10 of their whole discography is mostly fulled with pre-2000 pillows, I'd like to see, which of the "newer songs" are favourites. I'm curious how many MyFoot, Wake up!, Pied Piper and Ooparts  are in it. (The list may contain AMAP, and singles (Over Amp!). . . all their stuff, except Turn Back I guess) So what are your 10 favourite pillows tracks from 2000-2009?

1. Kono yo no Hate Made 2. Fool on the Planet 3. Thank you, My Twilight 4. Terminal Heaven's Rock 5. Walkin' on the Spiral 6. Good Dreams 7. New Animal 8. Scarecrow 9. 1989 10. So Long, Universe
Honorable mentions(AKA I ran out of spots) Tokyo Bambi The Third Eye Nonfiction Ladybird Girl
I just went down the albums year by year, for the most part. I mixed it up a bit toward the end. And I don't think I could get through this list without any tracks from Good Dreams. I love that album.

 Re: Top 10 pillows songs 2000-2009
Huh, I thought OVER AMP was a cover or something. I found an mp3 of the song by some band like "MuMu" on a Delicious Label CD or something. I could be wrong-- the pillows is weak in me.

 Re: Top 10 pillows songs 2000-2009
Over Amp was composed by Sawao for Mumu, and then the pillows "covered" it. So it's Sawao's song, basically. Or at least, that's how I remember it.

Beehive was composed by Sawao for Chihiro Yonekura, and then the pillows "covered" it. So it's Sawao's song, basically. Or at least, that's how I remember it. + What have I done? I mean, it's not hard to find 10 good songs or 20 good songs, even 30 very nice songs from the pillows post-1999. But only 10 songs?!  I only know Sono Mirai Wa Ima and Shiroi Natsu for sure.

1. Shiroi Natsu...---------mellow ambience, climax 2. Sono Mirai Wa Ima---pure rocking air guitar 3. Scarecrow-------------dramatic/serious one 4. Gazelle City-----------easylistening, one of the very first pillows song for me 5. Skim Heaven---------Sawao's voice fits perfect, silly ambience, creative use bass 6. Moon Marguerite-----ai wo moto! , typicall ubeat feel-good pillowness 7. Subhuman-----------Sawaoish English + great mood sketch 8. Chelsea Hotel--------just a nice acoustic song 9. Sonna Fuu Ni...------good example of the pillows' diversity. 10. Good Dreams--------powerfull, emotional voice

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5PzM446op1o^sums it up. Just put this on repeat. Also [b]AMAP doesn't count because most of them are b-sides released before 2000.[/b]
