i found yemon because of one million power, ive felt very lonely because i realized that people who arent japanese really talked about yemon (or atleast from what ive observed).. so i really appreciate this video format! ill look frward to new vides
Thanks so much, I'm so glad that you found out about them because of OneMillionPower! It'll take me a little while to close the gap on what I've written there already and get it into video format, but I feel very strongly about doing it this way!
thanks for the review and translations! huge western yemon fan here too, it's wonderful to hear you talk about them here and on your blog with such love! my punch drunkard tour t-shirt is one of my most prized possessions and it's been getting some wear since the new album release
It's always good to hear from other western fans of the band in particular, thanks for commenting! Definitely more videos like this for them to come! I never did end up getting the Punch Drunkard shirt, but I do have a vintage "Fix the Sicks" and a Shock Hearts one that will certainly be making their debut in future videos!
This music review is probably the closest information I'll ever get about the Yellow Monkey. I rarely found an english speaker talking about them, mostly because Japanese band are popular overseas through anime song and for them it was years ago with Tactics from Samurai X ed that introduces me to their song along with Holy Sea and Sunshine.
It's true that they don't have nearly as many western fans as they should! I'm glad you enjoyed the video! There will definitely be more videos to come about them, since they're my favorite band!
also a fan of the yellow monkey here review their album from the bunched birth just a suggestion .. it can't hurt can it? anyways more power to your channel man! already subscribe too
I'm absolutely going to! In fact, the next album of theirs that I do will be Bunched Birth since I'm the sort of crazy person who likes to start from the beginning on these things when I can 😅 I'm not sure EXACTLY when I'll do it, but it will happen for sure. Thanks for commenting and for subscribing as well!
do it now, i got your back .... i'll support you... as a fellow the yellow monkey fan ,we gotta show them how we love and how much we respect ,amd support the band,
Thank you for your detailed and passionate review in English❤ but you have forgotten to mention that the working title, 新理事 (Shin riji, new director) actually means Thin Lizzy😁
I am! I am very aware of this game and I actually have a book coming out soon (video for that soon too) that will have it and many other games featuring Japanese artists in it!

Thanks, I'm glad you found it!
ありがとうごさいます!
私は日本人です。私は逆にイエモンから洋楽ロックに目覚め、彼等のルーツを巡る音楽の旅に出ました。彼等自身が本当に多くの音楽をルーツに持つのでファンの我々も多くを吸収したり出会ったりする事ができます。このチャンネルそうですね!
吉井イズムのユニークな表現の原点には歌謡曲は勿論、日本のコメディアン「ドリフターズ」もあります。過去には何かのインタビューでデヴィッド・ボウイの「change」をあげて、歌詞の中の「ch ch ch chang」のところを日本語だと「かっかっかっ変わるんだー」って歌っているようなものと解釈して歌詞で遊ぶ事を学んだと過去の雑誌で語っていました。
これからも楽しく視聴させていただきます!
なるほど、逆の道に行ましたね!お互いの場合、外国語の魅力だったのでしょうか?
吉井さんがデヴィッド・ボウイに影響を受けたことはよく知られていますが、ドリフターズからもインスピレーションを受けていたとは知りませんでした。それは興味深いですね!たくさんの言葉遊びを使うという点では、確かに理解できます!
見てくれてありがとうございます!これからもよろしくおねがいします!
ありがとうございます。
英語というよりは、そのサウンドとリズムの探究の為だと思います。イエモンに出会うまでにビートルズやカーペンターズなんかをたまに聴いていましたが、ハマって聴くという感じではなかったです。
デヴィッド・ボウイの中に隠されたイエモンを探しているうちにすっかりと洋楽のハマり、結果「オルタナティブロック」の深淵なる旅路となりました。
吉井さんからは洋楽だけでなく、邦楽の素晴らしさにも触れる事ができます。
@@HT-uk2ey おもしろいことに、私が高校生だった頃に「オルタナティブ・ロック」が流行っていたので、よく覚えています。とても昔のことですが、とても興味深い時代でした。これまで考えたことはなかったけれど、当時その場にいなかった人が同じような旅をしているのを知って嬉しいです。それが良いことか悪いことかは別としてね!

Ahh, you're right! I went back and looked at the interview, and there it was! I missed have missed it the first time, thank you for pointing this out!
イエモン愛が溢れていますね✨
海外の方にもファンがいてとても嬉しいです🥳
歌詞の世界観もとても魅力的ですのできっと新たな発見もあると思われます。
しかしながら、ここまでリサーチされてるのは脱帽ですね🎉🎉🎉
見てくれてありがとうございます!長年イエモンのファンなので、今回の動画はまるで自分の使命のように感じました! ww バンドのみんなさんのインタビューを読むたびに素晴らしい情報がたくさん得られるので、それを他のファンの皆さんと共有できるのは本当に楽しいです!
次回作品も是非お願いいたします🌟キトラシカに関しては皆さんリサーチされたでしょうね😌僕もその1人ww
この手法⁈もJ-POPの先輩方からの影響かと思われます。
exhaustの現在・過去・未来のフレーズも渡辺真知子「迷い道」からきてると推測しています✨
タロットカードも引用されてるので🤭
by the way you're a gamer too right?

I am! I am very aware of this game and I actually have a book coming out soon (video for that soon too) that will have it and many other games featuring Japanese artists in it!
