Diddy's Asian Persuasion II - 1/1 12.00 GMT

[COB]

This reminds me of the virtual popstar SHARON APPLE from the much-loved anime series Macross Plus.

 

[Diddy]

By the way, if it's possible, it may interest some of you to turn on subtitles if you want to know what it's all about (and still be baffled). It's not on all the songs though

PERFUME 4TH TOUR IN DOME LEVEL 7

honestly their stadium gigs are OUT OF BODY EXPERIENCES

 

[Tisch]

Those three girls look very excitable.

This looks immense, can't lie.

 

[COB]

Please let me ENTER THE SPHERE I've never wanted anything more

Now I'm going over all the Fiona Apple tags (rip)

Penelope Kumquat dies at home

 

[ZenGiraffe]

Please let me ENTER THE SPHERE I've never wanted anything more

Don't tap it, WHACK IT!

 

[Diddy]

BLASTING EVERY SYNAPSE OUT OF YOUR HEAD WITH LASERS NEVER FELT SO GOOD

 

[COB]

Credits (please)

 

[Iguana]

ENTER THE SPHERE!

hmm what happens to me if I do please?

 

[COB]

The spheres were balloons all along!

Blitzball stadiums across Spira found AGHAST

 

[Diddy]

The first time I saw them was actually in London - they aren't doing stadiums or anything (for shame) but check them out if they ever come back

 

[COB]

This was on Christmas Day?!

Sakanaction - Tabun, Kaze

Following their roaring success in ASFM at the tail end of last year with Shin Takarajima (btw this means Treasure Island), this 5-piece from Hokkaido have had a successful career, celebrating their 15th anniversary in 2021.

This was the follow-up single to Shin Takarajima, I hope they make a comeback soon. Because the lead guy is FIT.

 

[ZenGiraffe]

THANKS SKYMODS

 

[COB]

Already bopping to this

 

[Diddy]

This song title translates as "Maybe, wind"

That's more of a GIVEN with my diet these days

 

[COB]

Please tell me the handsome drummer appears!

 

[Tisch]

BEAUTIFUL SYNTHS

[Diddy]

I am SO INTO the lead singer, he's 40 too. FUCK ME PLEASE

 

[COB]

Oh the band are appearing slowly, fine

 

[Iguana]

I like this one! Why do they look so miserable, are they not getting enough vitamin D?

 

[ZenGiraffe]

I LOVE HER SO MUCH

 

[COB]

Magenta Devine queen!

 

[COB]

What a LOOK!

 

[COB]

Cute drummer! OMG his HAIR

 

[COB]

He's even better in this one!

 

[Diddy]

Don't ask me why everyone's dressed relatively normal, but Magenta came as Poison Pokemon Gym Leader

 

[Tisch]

Love them shoving each other out of the way for the mike

 

[Diddy]

If ASFM all-stars had been other songs by previous entrants, I think this was going to be mine

 

[COB]

The way they fly off like balloons is very reminiscent of SOPHIE's video for Faceshopping

 

[ZenGiraffe]

Don't ask me why everyone's dressed relatively normal, but Magenta came as Poison Pokemon Gym Leader

I wasn't questioning at all, just stanning immediately

 

[Tisch]

I like guys who can pull off big comedy glasses. See also Jackie Cox and Su Pollard

 

[Diddy]

I want a lead singer skin suit for ... reasons

 

[Tisch]

Oh I thought this was the start of an ad break!

Generations from Exile Tribe – Pierrot

No I won’t shut up about these boys. I love them, but it was hard to decide what might be a good single to show off, since most of the videos fade out early (hi Japanese music). But this 2016 single, from their horribly-named “A Tearless Pierrot Looked Up at the Sky Without the Sun and Moon” album is a bop. And they’re fit too.
