 Re: One Characteristic
Its Manabe's melody+sound and Sawao's voice+lyrics that drive me to listen to them every hour of the day.

 Re: One Characteristic
nfc why pocky is so popular, but these Calbee potato crisps that taste like French Fries are the shit.

 Re: One Characteristic
Everyone back on topic now. We've had too much of this going on lately.

 Re: One Characteristic
[quote]I like how the music is happy, but the lyrics sound like Sawao cuts his wrists every night.[/quote]Yeah, I can see that. That's sort of what the "diversity" of the pillows means to me. Ladybird Girl is genuinely happy, but compare that to White Summer Red Hair Black Guitar (or whatever the title of the song was) which was genuinely morose. You'll see how genuinely emotional both pieces are.

lol @ sheer.
I agree with GR in that the pillows have a discography so diverse, but still allows me to put it on shuffle, and no matter what starts to play my ears feel happy. Other bands have songs that sound "cool", or songs that you can "rock out" to when you want something heavier, but at the end of the day, when you are driving home with the stars above you and the cold breeze at your fingertips, nothing beats putting on PML.

 Re: One Characteristic
I like em because to me their style and message is upbeat and lively yet disaffected and a little neurotic. Which pretty much was me in my teenage years.

 Re: One Characteristic
[quote="sheerheartattack"]Someone explain this love for pocky among Japanophiles. It has got to be the least interesting foodstuff that the entire country has to offer. I mean, shit, it's not even that different from what we have here in the west.[/quote]
^That. It doesn't taste good either, its like eating instant coffee.
