It has been a long time since the pillows have participated in a tribute album. I guess the last time was in 2002 when they covered the song "1.2.3.4.5.6.7 DAYS A WEEK" by The Collectors.

Well, coming out July 4th is "PUFFY COVERS"; a tribute to the duo PUFFY. The pillows will be covering the song "[url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9TMh-syVVng]海へと[/url]" (Ume e to).

Yamanaka has previously worked with PUFFY contributing the songs "[url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TCfVHIfGbbg]Sayonara Summer[/url]", "[url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cwNMszwm0uw]complaint[/url]" and "[url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oCI1nO4liRU]Twilight shooting star![/url]". (Here's a useless tidbit... Keji Ueda did the arrangement for "Twilight shooting star!". I smell a pillows reunion, man.)

Any PUFFY fans here? I guess they have somewhat of a following outside Japan, with that cartoon and all... I don't particularly like them myself, but some of the greatest musicians in Japan have written songs for them. I know a lot of their songs from "cover" versions by the original artists.

They're covering it because it has "oh yeah" in the lyrics right? I don't know about a reunion, Kenji pops up every once in while, but hardly seems to work with them. Atleast from what i've seen.

Spitz is covering the song that THEY WROTE for Puffy that they've ALREADY RECORDED themselves.

The album dropped a few days ago. Still waiting for an upload, but until then here are samples from HMV.

None.
No Puffy Covers. No God Game.
Mafu is unhappy. :cry:

I'm almost tempted to just by this album if we don't get an upload soon. It'd be nice if it were on iTunes or something.

I am not sure whether linking to Chinese dl sites is allowed, but here [url=http://115.com/file/dpuy7t7c#]here[/url] it is. Click the green of the four big buttons to dl directly. The speed can be slow sometimes, other than that it usually works fine.

Thanks man. It looks like it's asking for an e-mail address after you hit the green button. Anyone download it successfully, and would be willing to upload it to another file sharing site?

Got it. Awesome.
Thank you very much, shepherd_blaine. You're the coolest person on this forum for all of Summer.

I uploaded it to mediafire for those of you who couldn't download from the Chinese site.

I was too lazy to fix the file names. A lot of them have messed up characters. Tags are fine though.

[url=http://www.mediafire.com/?dukva2mh55mu983]Just the pillows' cover[/url](for those of you who want to miss out on the other great artists on this album.)

I deem this a good cover. Good job, pillows.
