Found this in a thrift store in France.. I don't know much about it—just took a quick look on Google... Would you have bought it? Any fans here?

Hii!!

I don’t know if any of you have run into the same problem, but since I’m in France, there are sooo many Japanese links that aren’t available here, and I can’t post on Japanese forums either because my IP is outside Japan 😭 Anyway, I came across this photo and I really love it, and I’d love to identify as many of the people in it as possible — especially the girl in the yellow dress.

I’m pretty sure it’s not Yukiko, since I believe this event took place before she started her career (if I remember correctly), so I’m wondering if she could possibly be Chiemi Hori.

If anyone can identify the girl, and even better, provide me with links to different angles of the same event, or other photos from the event where we can see the girl in the yellow dress, I would be so incredibly grateful. I’ve literally been searching everywhere and I just can’t find anything about it :(

AI is absolutely terrible at this and keeps identifying a different girl every time 😭 It’s driving me crazy. I’m really hoping one of you might be able to find a link to this specific event, especially a video where we can actually see them!

Thank you so much in advance for your help! (⁠◕⁠ᴗ⁠◕⁠✿⁠)

Can't access it for around a month and checking on sites like downforeveryoneorjustme to confirm, the website is indeed down for everyone. Gonna miss this website. Frequented that site many many years ago.

Their music sheet website is still up at least: https://gakufu.tunegate.me/

And for an alternative Japanese music guitar chords website, very fortunate that http://www.ufret.jp/ is still alive.

School me please.

Curious re; ambient, psyche or, more experimental genres.

Hi! I'm a guy from Portugal who's tired of generic music from around the world, so I started listening to Japanese music, and I have to say, I'm absolutely loving your music style! I've been listening to a lot of Asian Kung-Fu Generation, Sakanaction, and other bands, but these two are definitely my favorites. (I think I like Asian Kung-Fu Generation so much because of the nostalgia from some of their songs, since they remind me of the anime Naruto and Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood, which I used to watch when I was younger.)

I just wanted to say that I really love your culture, and one day I hope to visit your country! :)

P.S. I already have a playlist with over 100 Japanese songs XD https://open.spotify.com/playlist/1jQwYhIYxTWvzvFDA9s8Vv?si=53da2478654744a8

こんにちは！ポルトガル出身の男です。世界中のどこにでもあるようなありきたりな音楽に少し飽きてしまって、日本の音楽を聴き始めたんですが、皆さんの音楽スタイルが本当に大好きになりました！

最近はASIAN KUNG-FU GENERATIONやサカナクションなど、いろいろなバンドをたくさん聴いていますが、この2組が特に大好きです。
（ASIAN KUNG-FU GENERATIONが特に好きなのは、昔見ていた『NARUTO -ナルト-』や『鋼の錬金術師 FULLMETAL ALCHEMIST』を思い出させてくれる曲があって、懐かしい気持ちになるからだと思います。）

ただ、日本の文化が本当に大好きだということを伝えたくてメッセージしました。そして、いつか日本を訪れてみたいです！ :)

PS：もう日本の曲だけで100曲以上入っているプレイリストを作っちゃいました XD
