My search for feeding my insatiable appetite for pop music, some may find a little questionable, has continued. I’m loving the vast array of variables that can make a musical hit (in my eyes anyway).

Today we’re heading to Japan!

Do you consider fan dancing to be a rock ‘n’ roll thing? Passpo has definitely got the hard rock sound in their song Natsuzora Hanabi. What could be more rockstar than jumping in a pool fully clothed, throwing suitcases and wearing studded collars, and the fan dancing, don’t forget the fan dancing.

For fans (not the dancing sort) of Anime, you may recognise this slightly older song by ON/OFF called Futatsu no Kodou to Akai Tsumi, as it was the theme song from season one of Vampire Knight

I can’t say I’ve sat down to watch an episode of the show, but I am assuming the red wool and the chains mean something? I sometimes like a little grungy metal in my playlist and Reason for Treason by Diaura

fits the bill. Two tone mullets, and growling. Not to mention a very Garbage-esk (Shirley Manson etc not refuse) distorted effects to the clip add to the rebellious feel. Now if only I could understand what was being said…

Spending all my Time by Perfume

is an ear worm of the worst sort. It comes with hand dancing. See how long it takes you to get the moves down. This makes my dag dance look dated. I do love the little corset things on the dresses when they’re in front of the door. As for the socks with the high heels… that’s up to you to decide.

This one is called Candy Candy

by Kyary Pamyu Pamyu. She began her career as a model for Harajuku fashion magazines such as Kera! The interesting fashion sense of the culture comes through in this clip, and can anyone tell me the significance of the onion?
