Tuesday Music



I hope you appreciate how much work went into this. It should be obvious when you see that these are not all youtube videos.

Google reliably informs me that's Tuesday Music in Japanese! It's probably wrong but never mind.

So. The Japanese. Crazy huh? Yeah, it's true, they're a mad old bunch. But that doesn't hinder them in making rather beautiful music sometimes. Especially when they use odd mixes of Japanese and English lyrics. And so today is a Japanese special.

We'll start with two songs by Secret Ocean. I've spent the week setting the top scores on Audiosurf for these two songs and I love them. So much so I'll be buying the album.

This first one is aptly named "Beautiful".


This second one is called Kokoro no Furyoku which translates as The Buoyancy of a Heart.


Next one is a song my brother threw my way. It's the opening song to the absurdist anime Excel Saga. The title is Ai Chūseishin. I have no idea what it is or what it's about. Just enjoy the weirdness.



And then something a little upbeat. Heat of the Night by Aikawa Nanase (Or Nanase Aikawa depending on which way you prefer to Anglicize Japanese names. :P).



Don't forget to click the dragons.
Arigato!
