I know that is a cover song and all, but I swear America isn't making any interesting music anymore and we sure as hell don't appreciate a lot of the greatness that has been born by us.

 

Example: Jazz. Big in Europe and Japan, but we don't give a fuck.

Mellinoe --I like that track but a lot is lost in translation for me. Another problem I have with a lot of "acid jazz" is that it sometimes sounds too polished, especially live. I like it, but it's not something I can listen to non-stop, it needs to be mixed up with other styles for me.

 

IOU --America still is making interesting music, especially when compared to other countries. Europe and Japan have their share of mainstream pop and crap so it all kind of balances out equally. We just have a huge nation of people who like to consume crap.

 

Off topic, but one of my favorite Japanese exports of recent years is Toe's RGB DVD.

Ohhhh manI have some friends who are OBSESSED with Toe.

 

I guess I'm just weird. I'm more about music/voices in terms of sound that I just don't listen to lyrics. Probably why I've been into Japanese for a long time now. I love that song though.

 

That's Tokyo Jihen btw. They blend in a lot of rock with jazz. It's so damn good.
