So I haven't thought about this in a while, and I'm sure a good amount of you guys haven't either. I did some snooping around on iTunes today, checking to see if Horn, Again was up. Stumbled upon a page for the Poison Rock n Roll Podcast hosted by Sawao. They have all 121 episodes up for free download, the most recent from yesterday. I went through a number of these and it's mostly just Sawao talking, but this recent one has him playing something on acoustic guitar. I don't know if it's a new demo or a cover or what... but it sounds good! Kind of reminded me of Lily My Sun just a little bit. He apparently did three takes of it during the show, the last being the longest take. I spliced a file with him "introducing" it and then skipped ahead to the most complete take. I left the intro intact so maybe someone can decipher what he's saying about the song:

The thing is, this podcast is really a wealth of knowledge for the pillows' fans. I'm sure a lot of the things we're wondering and questioning has been addressed on here. This is where I really hate the language barrier. Being my favorite band, I want to know everything about them, and here it is right at my fingertips, yet I can't make anything out. The podcast from 9/15/09 sounds interesting too. Sawao goes into something about his "Perfect Discography" and I hear him mention a lot of the albums names. Maybe if anyone has time, we can get some translations... or at least figure out if what Sawao is playing in the link above is a new song. I think I'm going to be listening to this podcast a little closer now regardless.

He got some lyrics sent in and made a song to them or something lol.

Oh, I was hoping it would be some new demo or something. Didn't give a title then, eh?

Heh, well this makes me think... if I send in some lyrics, Sawao will write a song for me? Well, if anything, it would greatly improve his English songs.

That actually sounds really good, particularly the chorus.
