Never understood the appeal of that song or singer, is okey, is a nice song, but nothing special...
Its there a deeper meaning to it?

>>6549063
It's relaxing. Many people really like that aspect of songs.

Make city pop great again.

this bitch really got into NijiEN? crazy

>>6549002
Shouldn't we have a gen 1 first? I like irys but she's EN in streaming alone. Music wise not so much. Which is fine i like jp music

>>6549063
It's not that special. It was boosted by the YT recommendation algorithm and the general interest in vaporwave (and other nostalgic-sounding music) at the time. It ended up kicking off interest in the "city pop" genre

>>6549002
>only 135k subs on youtube
>9 years of videos
lol

>>6549002
Woh bro. We dont use the G word in Hololive English

>>6549443
She's dead anon...

>>6549063
I like Vaporwave-esque songs and 80s jpop.

70-90s jpop has gotten popular in the last 5 years. Youtube is recommending me song after song.

>>6550151
this art is from caitlin myers's cover and mariya takeuchi is still alive...

>>6549002
she auditioned for wave 1, didn't even get interviewed. auditioned for gen 2 same story. she cried her friends about not passing. considering one of her friends got into prism and has seen "big" success outside of the big 3, i have a feeling she will be prism unless she is trying for niji.

>>6549002
I mean, sure.

>>6551413
Prism hasn't made any indication they're adding more girls anytime soon.

See the pin comment, that story was shared around and many couples see this song as a lucky charm.

>>6549263
wrong bitch

>>6551620
yes, they have.
they have been joking about gen 4 as well as captain talking about artists. they are doing it by the end of the year 100%

actually one of my favourite albums ever, glad there are fellow fusion enjoyed on this board. I'm personally a really big fan of Jun Fukumachi https://youtu.be/6Dri2nvN7jo

>>6549063
i wasted a lot of time learning music theory instead of doing my college so everytime i heard a song with chord that is not using the common 135 formula it makes me so fucking hard, man. you cant believe how many times i masturbate everytime i heard a V#5 chord get resolved to a more stable neutral sounding chord. for you whi think that studying music is worth it, dont. you lost your soul. listen to your favorite artist and loop it instead. music isnt about learning, its about listening and having fun, and someday maybe, you can share it too. go watch eric clapton live performance, see how much he is having fun just using a basic ass pentatonic scale.

It's the first decent-to-good City Pop song to blow up in the west. That alone is why its the most popular one.

Pretty sure Gura said she liked City Pop but maybe she doesn't want to sing just that

>>6553152
>>6557094
Hello fellow cool guys. If you haven't already you should also check out Rainbow Goblins and An Insatiable High by Masayoshi Takanaka. Oh, check out Kazumi Watanabe's Mermaid Boulevard and Olive's Step, too.

>>6553152
Takanaka's albums are so fucking great

>>6549002
wtf Mariya Tekeuchi? isn't she like 60+ years old now?

>>6565217
So? Botan is still older

>>6564900
I try.

>>6565235
How old is Botan again? 62?

>>6549002

>>6549002
I unironically hate that song.

>>6567097
I guess it is pretty overrated after it blew up and became the gateway song for people getting into citypop stuff, I prefer Yume No Tsuzuki more than plastic love personally, mainly because Tatsuro has a nice part in it

>>6549002
I just realized this was a bait post because the VSinger also only sings in nip

You could say that about any art and that's basically life if you pay attention to the shared message

>>6549063
people wanting to go back to the 80's and forget the shithole 2010+ is. Just look at random clips of 80's people, everybody fucking smiled while if you looked at modern people, you can barely see any soul left in there.

You have no idea how badly the 80's sucked for the majority of people. Quit projecting and be the change you want to see.

>>6549063
I think everything went to shit after 9/11 is all.

>>6568531
THIS is what you fags keep calling the best singer of Hololive? She's mostly on pitch and her voice is pleasant to listen to but nothing more. She might not even make it in top 10 Holo singers.

>>6572055
Never

>>6565657
SUISEI PLAYS THE FUCKING BASS?! HOSHIYOMIS I KNEEL.

Holy shit. That sounds amazing. I think I have the actual instrumental and it sounds like she's mostly on beat with it. Give me a few minutes.

purease undastand, t. retard that just slapped this together in Audacity in like three minutes.
You really want it done right?

>>6549063
It's the same reason so many people on the west like hololive, since it's their first contact with a media they act like it's the best one ever made

>>6588430
Yes, make it sound like the original.

The "born in the wrong generation" hipsters are very into it.

>>6573075
The 80s sucked for anyone that was in NA (excluding Mexico) and western Europe.
In fact, anyone that says any of the 19th century's decades was "the best" is most likely an American.

>>6588478
I have no fucking idea what I'm doing. Audacity sucks dick, I'll try again later at a machine with Audition and all of my VST plugins.

It's not that special, it's a very comfortable and inoffensive 80s city pop song. It's city pop at its most accessible. It's a lightly melancholic ballad, drenched in reverb and a cute idol singer with a nice voice.
It's important to recognize that city pop isn't really a monolithic entity, city pop started in the 1970s and lasted until the early 90s, with heavy variance between the styles. What most people recognize as city pop today is just the 80s portion, which incidentally is the most straight forward of the bunch.
The 70s and 90s both saw a LOT of experimentation, the former to figure out what the genre even is and the latter to figure out where to take it. Early city pop had a LOT of jazz and yeye influence and both of them were subsequently reduced for a more electronic sound (largely championed by YMO in 1978 with their release of Pacific), while also being streamlined to be more pop-oriented.
There's a LOT more to city pop than the few songs the youtube algorithm spams at you, especially at the fringes.

Also, on a note that is completely unrelated, except that it's also Japan and the 1980s, go listen to Togawa Jun.

The shibuya-kei influence really sells what would otherwise be a fairly forgettable neo-city pop album.
