I seriously liked Shouso Strip better among the 3 of her albums.
The songs in Shouso Strip just blows me away!
No no, not because of Gibs. *laughs* partly..

I hope they don't do too much change to Gibs!
Gibs sounds great as a rock ballad, i liked gibs because of that.
Something would be missing if they took out some parts of the heavy sound it originally had.

But marunochi sadistic is a really great song.
It says so much about her. From the equipment she used to just about everything her.
And in every live she did, well more or likely change some part of it, whether its making in jazz-ier, rock-ier or just playing the piano-trumpet thing she played in Dynamite Out!
She's just out to give it her all and satisfy all her fans!

my post is all over the place, *laughs*
I'm happy to hear that Kyogenshou from Shouso Strip is part of the Domestic Tour setlist!
Its really nice to hear that don't you think?
I was thinking of Byoushou Public, recently i'm pretty addicted to this song and i had no idea why? *laughs*
Yokushitsu sounds awesome, i loved how it connected with the previous track(Kyogenshou).
Isn't yokushitsu translated to become "bathroom"?
Interesting title eh? Nod

and btw do you have the english translation to Byoushou Public? Embarassed

here is the translation to english from romaji:

Artist: Shiina Ringo
病床パブリック Byoushou Public - Sickbed Public*

If there’s a German-colored taxi
Gunning for the east outer garden of Shinbashi
The Les Paul is completely black
In the opposite lane, a nice-looking Jaguar

Clever self-control, white blood cells
On the one hand, shaking up life with delusions – going so far as to digest dirt
Let's forget about going back to normal

I gave up on trying to stop biting my nails
The yon-chome is way too carefree
My feelings are about to explode
Y stain, looking like a reduction

Decadence, nudity, safety zone
Too late, I’ve already been born a woman whose thrives on exhibition, but even so,
I want to take off my clothes

Clever self-control, white blood cells
On the one hand, shaking up life with delusions – going so far as to digest dirt
Let’s forget about going back to normal

Fatigue, bluffing, honors students
Calling out to love somehow, not getting a response – even luring you out with the answer of a traffic light
that never changes.

i hope you enjoy it quite amusing lyrics aint it?
but then once again theres somekind of message here.
if i know shiina even lil bit. I like this part most:

*Clever self-control, white blood cells. On the one hand, shaking up life with delusions
– going so far as to digest dirt
Let's forget about going back to normal*

About the Shouso Strip, it has turned also to my favo. album from her. ^__^
Some say Kalk kuri no Zamen hana was the best album.
But i feeled this album more. And yes yokushitsu means *bathroom* as you said. Nod
one the most crasiest/uniquest song names i ever heard.
yes i was also happy/suprised that they are gonna play that song from Shousho Strip album it was good to hear. and i bet many fans like it like you and me.

And i gotta agree with you that. that i hope they dont modify gibusu
its bestest in the form it is in all ready so i dont think that jazz could fit in there it would lose it shine imo.

Thanks alot Kawai-no!
But i don't really get what the song is trying to say.
The first verse is about cars?
Oh my god, how typical of shiina ringo to come up with such lyrics.
Her lyrics confused me.

Can you please explain to me the song.
I seriously don't get it.
Sorry to cause so much trouble. Embarassed

No problemo, im glad to help and lend my helping hand for you.

But etto, seriously this song is a hard to me figure also.
I tryid to figure it out lastnight but i cant manage to get some sense to there....however
yon-chome probably refers to Ginza's famous yon-chome crossing
(note, it is one of the busiest crossings but about ist care freenes im not shure!).

Y stain is most likely refering to an eosin Y stain, used in science experiments Confused

Makes sense? well truth to be told i love the song but these lyrics eate my brain
i dont get what is the meaning in this song. I hope i helped someway =)
mayby we should try to figure these lyrics out together.

I got the chinese lyrics from one of the verse and it says,

"頹廢 裸體 安全圈
雖然已經發揮生為女人的才能
還是希望讓我自己脫"

This is from the,
"Taihai ratai anzen ken
sude ni mou onna toshite umareta
sainou wa hakki shiteiru no dakedo
nugasete hoshii" *edit*

I got some help from my mother and she said.
"Decay/bald*1 Naked body Safety device*2
Eventhough I already shown the qualities of a women
I still hope that I can take it off myself.*3"

*1 I think something like you said.
*2 I don't know whether its okie to placed it here but it means the C word. C _ _ D _ M. Get it?
*3 Take off her clothes? I don't know.

Sorry for my bad chinese and lack of english vocabularies. Embarassed

^^^^

2: I don't know whether its okie to placed it here but it means the C word. C _ _ D _ M.
Get it?

I never thought about that,
but i think looking at the chinese lyrics thats what it means afterall.

*3 Take off her clothes? I don't know.
well if the second line is right then i think this is the right meaning for it.
becouse it just blends better in the lyrics.

i started to thing mayby this song has the same message
as shiina has said that song Instinct was for women and the meaning of it was
that woman can have also etto...erotic fantasies. *sorry eyn if the word is against the rules*

And the first line about the cars she is comparing Jaguar to a guitar model called
gibson Les Pauly wth.

Aww this songs lyrics are so amusing Confused

ps . no need to be sorry by your bad chinese and lack of english vocabularies.
you write better english then me sometimes and i also lack of vocabularies and etc. not a big thing. Nod

So honnou and byoushou public kinda have their similarities in those ways?
No wonder honnou pv has that Nurse/Hospital theme.

and shiina ringo must have a thing for the hospital theme as the Gekokujyo Ecstasy concert has the hospitial as well.
Interesting and sexy! Love

what other song is connected to an another like honnou and byoushou public are connected
this mysterious way.
Love

yes, definitely very creative of her.
I really love her song writing style!

You have the Gekokujyo Ecstasy!?
Omg lucky you!
I saw some of the perfomance from youtube.
The nurse are filming or capturing Shiina Ringo performing.
IMO, its like shiina ringo is a psychotic patient and they are examining her. Tongue

I'm really happy that she had her short hair in the dvd instead of the long version.
If i'm not wrong theres an alternate to her costume for the performance.
One which is the long hair with the costume being very bloody.
and the other one is the one in the videos, short hair.
But please correct me if i am wrong!

Oh please the price, please drop!
*laughs*
But now does this dvd have a limited and normal one.
Example like the electric mole which the limited one was longer in length(the cover) then the normal edition.
Man, i really need to stop spending money on unnecessary stuffs! Confused

I remember somehow too that there is
alternate costume which was bloody and she had longer hair,
but i dont like the longer hair of her mayby when she wears kimonos like on some videos then its good but otherwise shorter is better.

But, i think there is only normal version for Gekokujyo Ecstasy
i cant remember that there would be some limited edition for it.

Electric Mole did have limited edition like you said. Nod

lolz you are just like me, i spend sometimes also money to things i really dont need.

Great news fellow Tokyo Jihen's fans!!
You can find some footages of the Domestic! Virgin Line tour on youtube!
3 performances,

Souretsu, an awesome performance if i must say. Especially when the children choir started to come out! I really like it! And i can really hear the power of shiina ringo's vocals! You got to watch it to believe it!

Kabuki, the kids are gone and you shiina with her loudspeaker singing the song. quite spectacular with the man if you pay attention taking this huge disc/disco thing reflecting the lights, shaking. Quite amusing! Note her language at one of the song's lyric.(fellow tokyo jihen's fans should know what i'm talking about.)

Service, can i say fan service? they did just what i wanted. They really love to dance don't they? The band members all in white had a loudspeaker and they SANG! Yes they all sang parts of the song. and of cos dance while they sang.(Forgive the rhyming done) And they change thier clothes behind a curtain and came out in a black outfit. Love Hata's sleeveless shirt... *nosebleed*
AND, FANS this is what WE had been waiting for.....
SHIINA wore her cat ears and did a short dance with it on!
But the cat ear's was placed on around the middle of the song and i think she took it off after awhile as well.
As the ending pose which she wasn't wearing it IIRC, but, the pose she did with the members are so adorable! dang, why did she remove the cat ears...
But overall it was very entertaining! Love Love Love

Everyone please go watch it. if you want the links i think i could post it can't i? i'm not sure really... Confused

p.s and i got a surprise(which i hope it will be) for everyone and will show it you gets once i get back my digital cam.

Souretsu: Tokyo Jihen - DOMESTIC! Virgin LINE - Souretsu

Kabuki: Tokyo Jihen DOMESTIC! Virgin LINE - Kabuki

As runawayschi stated this was an entertaining experience
and imo Tokyo jihen truly showed that they can work as a group/band.

Most if all i loved the Shiina-samas perfomance during Service were she weared
cat ears very kawaii! and most of all she is hot i cant take my eyes of.

Souretsu: oh my freaking god!
have to watch your self Shiinas voice! never sounded so good imo and the children choir thumbs up.

So if there is something that every Tokyo jihen fan have to see this this is it.

i know there are even more Shiina fans
in this site so please share the enjoy and watch
those perfomances out. and drop some comments here Nod
would be nice to see those other couple mayby even more)
