[Kafka]

"Spreading disease so they can sell the cure" Man the goobers in the comments glommed right on to this lol. It's so patronizing and pretentious because history has shown us that governments will gleefully let people die if it's the "right" people and it keeps the money flowing. The scant amount of profit to be had from the weird ******** conspiracy of intentionally infecting and curing people does not even compare. That said. I guess it's a little different than from what they usually do. Basically pretending to be Judas Priest. But unlike a Judas Priest song, less bite and basically all bark. At least enunciate more if you're gonna spout such toothless lyrics.

JINTANA & EMERALDS - Love Again feat. Los Retros

Groucho Marx was meant to be on an episode of Welcome Back, Kotter but ultimately could not due to illness.

[Hydelloon]

Two ballet dancers in the wild pining for each other. Everything about the video was unexpected and in a pleasant way. The song itself was beautifully composed and performed. I'm terrible at placing music genres, but I did get the strong feeling this would not be out of place in an episode of Lupin III if not an ending theme.

DJ Cummerbund - Me and Coolio Down by the Schoolyard

The smooth, detailed medical illustrations were done with a method called the "carbon dust technique" developed by German artist Max Brödel.

[Godot]

It's almost always a good time when someone links DJ Cummerbund.
This mashup is certainly fantastic. Dj Cummerbund was on a mission to set Coolio's lyrics to "gentle frog" music, and he was completely successful. Oh yeah~!
For just a moment as I was writing this I caught a glimpse of the thumbnail of Paul Simon's video and thought he'd embraced the mashup. Alas, he probably hasn't even heard of it.



Golden Bomber - I'm human


Potatoes on the sea floor!
Well, not potatoes. They're just mineral lumps. There are a lot of minerals in the ocean water itself, and all they need is something to attract them in one spot. Over a large span of time, the minerals that gather around these nucleation points have formed into a very lumpy sea floor.
Now... the problem is how to harvest them without being destructive. Unfortunately it's not like they're loose potatoes that can just be scooped up. gonk We can't afford to destroy the oceans to extend the sustainability of the planet.

[Kafka]

I think I enjoy the comedy element of Golden Bomber most, but admittedly that wouldn't work without a whole team of talented professional musicians behind them. So I don't blame Kiryuin wanting to do songs like this sometimes. I don't think something like Golden Bomber would work without a talented musician like him at the helm. This is pretty typical visual kei fare but I feel like it's still crafted around Kiryuin's particular style of vocals. Not as addictive as some of the more hilarious Golden Bomber songs but not a chore to listen to either.

Fatoumata Diawara feat. -M- - Massa Den

There are thousands of species of moths, but almost none of them actually eat clothes.

[Hydelloon]

An absolutely gorgeous song that makes me wish I knew French. But even with not knowing what is being said you can get a feel for the sense of comfort being portrayed in the video. Fatoumata has quite the recognizable voice, too, as even forgetting the collab with Gorillaz for a moment I was able to recognize it pretty quickly. A wonderful share.

Cake - Comfort Eagle

There are more bacteria in the human body than human cells.

[Godot]

I didn't even realize Cake was still around. Though this song is over 20 years old now. But Wikipedia says they're still active, so I guess surprised
I don't think I ever listened to much of Cake in the day, I only ever heard them on the radio, or on MTV/VH1. So of course I know maybe two of their songs. But their style is immediately recognizable. This one... feels more sinister than the other two. But that's religion for you.

Funk No.1 - TOKYO GROOVE JYOSHI

There's at least one company close to release of vanadium flow batteries for residential use. emotion_kirakira Safer, more durable, and three times the energy density of a comparable lithium Ion battery. A little big, but they're intended for the outside of the house, so it won't take up living space. Combine that with a reversible heat pump and renewable energy, and there's far less worry about grid power outages.

[Kafka]

I'm pretty sure that this has come up in my recommendations and I've listened to it previously. Dun matter cos I always enjoy musicians enjoying music! The bassist is definitely feeling herself haha. As she should, as the backbone of the song. I think there might be a tiny bit of rhythm guitar in the backing track. Either way guitar is hardly missed here. I think a lot of bands don't know what to do without a guitar-heavy melody. But I've seen plenty that, like this one, excel where others would definitely struggle.

Suiyoubi no Campanella - Kongo Rikishi Statues

The Chupa Chups logo was designed by Salvador Dalí!

[Hydelloon]

Twerking to your art history lesson. xd The video is lovely and the song itself is quite catchy. Great use of bass and the plucked guitar bits really stand out. I can't say I've heard anything bad from Wednesday's Campanella.

Dance With The Dead - The Power (feat. Kristine)

Bug zappers don't actually attract and kill the bugs you want them to.

[Godot]

This... makes me feel old, but in a good way? At first I thought it might be a remix of a song from the 80's. Took embarrassingly long for me to find the info that no, these are 80's synth enthusiasts. Though part of that is just googling "Kristine" isn't super helpful.
Ah, yeah, she even has a New Retro Wave branded video in recommendations. And lots of results on their channel. orz well.
Anyways~ I can definitely see this being in the background while exercising.

88Kasyo Junrei - Saramazu

Bats are amazing~ emotion_kirakira There are bats that hunt their prey on foot. And only echo-locate for navigation purposes. Using their cool ear blades that make it easy to tell where that damned skittering noise is coming from!

[Kafka]

Excuse me sirs, your guitarist has malfunctioned lol. This song reminded me of how much of my life I've spent listening to "PALAMA・JIPANG". When Kenzoooooo was waiting to be picked up at the end, I wanted the song to start back up and keep going even though it's already almost six minutes long lol. Just some guys living in the desert with their minivan and their guitarist robot. It feels like part Journey to the West and part Wizard of Oz lol. Hiroi and Shimizu always have the coolest gear and play it better than anyone. But Kenzoooooo stands out here quite a bit too, with a heavy bass drum and tight vibrant drumming that shows why he's in a band with virtuosos.

Yaeji - Done (Let's Get It)

You can plant a bat garden, to attract insects that bats like to eat!

[Hydelloon]

A song that goes nice and easy with quite the message within it. Breaking cycles that you didn't mean to continue even though you may care about the people you learned them from. You don't mean to carry on the bad things, but some times they slip through without you realizing it. But it is obvious that the singer loves and appreciates their grandfather. Very nice song overall.

サカナクション / 多分、風。

The golden-crowned flying fox is the largest bat with a wingspan over five feet!

[Godot]

A strong start with synth and strings. But then it is sakanaction. Always really catchy and energetic while singing whistful songs.
Interesting setting for the video. For some reason Youtube's automatic subtitles thinks it's Spanish. A little more productive than the normal [Music] , but also absolutely wrong cat_scream
But yeah, the imagery is really interesting. Though reading the lyrics elsewhere immediately dashes the feeling that it might be about discarding old versions of yourself.

Hozier - Eat Your Young

There are four types of bat common to Wisconsin: the
little brown bat, the big brown bat, the Eastern pipistrelle and the Northern long-eared bat.
If I want to build bat houses, the Wisconsin DNR suggests painting one a darker color. The two species that'd most commonly use bat houses are the big and little brown bats, and the big brethren prefer a cooler house.
Don't we all? emotion_awesome emotion_dealwithit

[Kafka]

Darn you making me listen to music I intend to try but am too lazy to~ lol anyway. This guy is always in the news for being a decent human being. I'm not sure what I expected his music to be like lol. I kind of expected the strings though, somehow. Reminds me of both triphop and blue-eyed soul. Which is all intentional and a good thing, I think. Like I can totally hear Dusty Springfield singing this song. And there's something to be said when it comes to a glossy retro sound with raw lyrics. The message is there for those who need to hear it but the music suffers none for it.

Snakehips - Deal With It (with Kilo Kish)

Crows roost in groups that can number into the millions and span five generations.

[Hydelloon]

No video to comment on because visualizer. rofl A rather chill tune with an emphasis on bass complimented EDM. Easy to listen to and while the time away when you're feeling relaxed and just want to vibe.

U2 - Pride (In the Name of Love)

The International Lucha Libre Confederation (Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre) is the oldest professional wrestling promotion currently in operation, having been established in 1933. The promotion was originally called Empresa Mexicana de Lucha Libre (EMLL).

[Godot]

Baby U2. Were they already convinced that they were invincible at this point in their careers? 8 years in... Probably. I could never count how many times I've heard this song. But that's mostly because I listened to the radio so much as a teenager. I was never really a fan, so I only just stumbled onto the genesis of the song while looking for information on the timeline of their careers.

Tenacious D - Wonderboy

Sunflowers will dominate you!
Well, more they don't want competition, so they secrete compounds from their roots that make it harder for other types of plants to grow around them.
At the same time, birds are likely to scatter their seeds around your garden. So be very specific about where you intend to plant them, because that plot of land is THEIRS now. emotion_donotwant emotion_dowant
