: The Garden :

I'm going to re-instate the whole occasional music download thing, but I don't think that I'm going to call it the Daily Download anymore. I sort of want to do this whole theme where music makes your panties wet, or something (based of course after the god of all movies, Detroit Metal City, where the manager keeps saying that their rock is making her wet.. which is completely masterfully done, especially since after that point, I keep trying to look up her leather skirt. (you can see panties, however there are these strange bicycle shorts too)

I digress.

Everyone knows that I'm increasingly disenchanted with japanese music, however there are a few songs that really just fan a spark of nostalgia in me.

Oda Kazumasa - Love Story wa Totsuzen ni

This song makes me think of autumn, of winds blowing in the breeze. It's a very 80s feeling, of the sorts that you'd only get in the series Ranma 1/2 or Marmalade Boy. (in fact Marmalade Boy had a song that was almost similar in style that also makes me think of autumn.) Hell I should've saved this for autumn, but then you know.. I'm of the opinion that you never know what happens tomorrow so you jus seize today.

I don't even know what the song is about, but I don't need to because I think that the way that the singer sings as well as the tonal quality of the song just conveys so much. (if anyone knows japanese and can tell me the general gist of the song, that'd be awesome.. I mean I can pick out words and all, but that's it.)
