let's all love lamp
Another Lain reference lesgooo
I'm so grateful that Lamp is gaining all of the recognition and love they deserve, and I am also thankful for the audience and the fanbase including you (the author) that make Lamp's music widespreaded. I can not say that I found Lamp but to be correct Lamp found me. I was at my edge of my life experiencing the most stressful moments of my life. During 2021-2022, I had the most intense examinations forthcoming; therefore, any signs of mentally unstablity is unavoidable. I got so insecure about my grades, my appearance, my way of living and somehow got myself involved in a nihilistic way of living ( An philosophy that indicates that life has zero meaning. For that reason, there is little meanings for us to keep on moving ). Obviously, it was horrible for me, I couldn't trust anyone, my idealogy was deformed and my conception of life is also twisted. Fortunately, Lamp came across me and adopted me. During that hard time, I felt like all of my bottled emotions spilled out like an untangled mess, but at the end it was an nice untangled mess. Lamp's music contains a lot of unexplained emotions but pleasant, it;s just like when you stare at a perfect blue sky and you got an complicated feelings that you feel uncanny yet calm. Lamp is not powerful in giving you motivation but it is extremely influential in ensuring you can feel the beauty, the love and the peace in life. Lamp is totally a friend group that will lift you up while you're having a breakdown and say "Let's go and see the sunset", "Look the sky is very blue today""Woah the view from the window is lovely, wanna go and take a look?". Lamp makes sure that you value the little things in life. I love lamp sm
Well said
The Beatles + King Crimson + Japanese City Pop = Lamp.
i think they’re more beach boys then beatles but this is a good comparison
been listening to lamp since her watch album dropped in 2018, can't believe their new album is just 3 days away.
Right? Its crazy.
I’ve been a lamp fan for 10 years now ! back then internationally they were very very niche and extremely unknown (they weren’t even on Spotify lol) I’m so glad they are so well known now and there’s so many fans now
SAME
'Yume', in my humble opinion, is Lamp's best work (at least my favorite). It's more modern and it's a bit of an acquired taste, but every song there is a HARD hitter. 'Symphony' is easily my favorite intro for any album ever.
Yes! Totally seconded!
for me "さち子"
For me it's 'Genso'
Lamp blesses your ears at night
I'm happy that another person is obsessed with Lamp as I am. I got into them in 2013 and it was the happiest accident ever.
OHMYGOSHOHMYGODH ME TOO ME TOO
finally some video about lamp on youtube.
Lamp has literally changed and saved my life in so many ways and I can’t ever express enough how much love I have for them. I love being able to deeply adore a band with unproblematic fans and be able to discuss how much I love them. If it weren’t for lamp I really don’t think I would be where I am today and I’m rlly appreciative of that. Hopefully they tour the U.S someday! I think I would cry my eyes out if I saw them in person and would know every single song they play lol
Lampのすべての曲はすごくきめ細かく優しいから好きだ😊
私も!
Live Love Lamp
Man, I wish I could watch their live concert for atleast once in a lifetime
They are going live later this year tho, as an opening act for Mitski, so if ur in the places where they're touring you have a chance!
Thank you so much for making this video!
LAMP literally saved my life. Around 2017 I was having an extremely hard time, but I found some LAMP songs which helped me apeace myself whenever I felt I couldn't hold it any longer. Yokaze is still, to this day, a song that feels like pure honey going directly to my soul.
Man fuck I really wish I got to that album in this video, happy to hear that you're better though!
Fell in love with Lamp since the covid lockdown, hope they do overseas Live
they are now
Lamp é uma das minhas maiores e melhores* conexões estrangeiras que valorizam a bossa nova, simplesmente muito familiar e peculiar à forma deles. É perfeito! 🇧🇷
I discovered Lamp while I was in COVID quarantine during 2022 New Year's week. I was marveled by their sound and vocals and I love them so much.
w video
Amazing video! I first discovered Lamp when I was facing a rough time during the lockdown. Tho I wished you included Komorebi Dori Nite, Zankou, Poetry of August, Her Watch and their collab with Kaede, Stardust in Blue because they're all bangers!
Perhaps I'll make a second part! Unlikely in the near future cause busy, but maybe smtime
@@whispii I really look forward to it if you do, thank you for replying!
gotta watch your vids
Lamp is too good
this is amazing! i love lamp so much and they have such an important place in my heart. although it wasnt mentioned, my favourite song is behind the moon shadow. it fills me with so much peace and calm. keep up the good work, whispii!!!
I was actually working on a video segment for that, but I dropped it at the last moment because I had other commitments
@@whispii it was still an amazing video regardless!! if u like lamp, you may like malice mizer. more of a rock vibe, but still so so good
Man can't believe I've only found your video now. I'll say that Lamp exists as one of the few bands that flew to the top of my list the moment I first heard their music, quite the feat for someone who takes pride in an admittedly obsessive attitude towards expanding my musical repertoire. Having dived down the MPB rabbit hole Yume appeared before me and you could definitely say it was like a dream, truly a brilliant group.
haven't even watched the video yet and i'm gonna cry.
growing up i played the song "heya no madobe" (from the window) on repeat from my mom's old PC. that song is now woven into my heart. thank you for making a video essay for such a beautiful and niche band ♡
Anytime man, I gotchu bro
I love you guys
Amazing video for an amazing band
Thanks man
Thanks for the video!!!
Lamp and their music saved me during my thesis years and even after, they have been my go-to when I need to uplift myself. I accidentally stumbled on Lamp as I was looking for Japanese songs to share in a small activity in my Japanese Language elective class. Their music instantly clicked with me as it kind of captured how I was feeling and at the same time gave me relief. I held onto their music as I was delayed for graduation and burnt out of 8 years in college. I began to love their music more when I discovered their Latin influence especially Bossa Nova and Samba which were my favorite genres of world music when I play drums or guitar. I've long wanted to cover some of their songs but couldn't find the confidence or time. Maybe because I was busy struggling internally with myself for quite some time. But now 3 years after discovering Lamp, I think I'm a better shape and state, I think I might give it a try soon. Dusk to Dawn is another gem especially Misty Town!
I this video was a lot longer as Lamp is severely underrated and undocumented. Thanks Whispii...or should I say Whisp from Lamp Discord (I'm a lurker member there from time to time) for making this video!
My favourite is probably moon ride, absolutely ethereal song
I can't really think of any other band that manages to put so much of themselves into their music. There's no other reason that nearly all international fans say that, despite the language barrier, they understand the themes of the songs and as long time listeners, have been able to draw this portrait of the members of the band that, at least for me, was only justified by reading their interviews.
I still remember hearing Hatachi no Koi from a jellyfish playlist (like, a playlist where you are a jellyfish floating in an open sea). Fell in love with it, then the rest is history.
Im so happy that lamp came out with a new album.Also great video
amazing video dude
appreciate that man
Great video, you should make a series covering different Japanese rock or shoegaze bands. Top picks are “My dead girlfriend”, “Uchuu nekoko” or “Mass of the fermenting dregs”.
i think I definitely will eventually get to something like that!
Thank you very much for making a video like this!! It's a really good video and an introduction for new Lamp fans(which i am i've only been a fan for 2 months and i've been listening to them everyday ever since i fell in love with Ame Furu Yoru no Mukou) and i think it's a really good video for long time Lamp fans aswell!
Lamp has gotta be my most favorite band ever by now. Ever since i listened to Ame Furu Yoru no Mukou i fell inlove with their music,it's not my first ever Lamp song that i listened though(That is Yume Utsutsu).Then ever since i listened to them more and more and at this point i know every song now,their entire discography means so much to me😭
Am i a moth? Because i love lamp
ahaha
Lamp fans should unironically be called moths
I love Lamp
Finding out about them earlier this year through some random video I found on tiktok using "Kimi Ga Nakunara" as the bgm. I was instantly hooked. For Lovers is their magnus opus indeed each song is a banger!
Lamp is my favorite music artist. Im glad there are more people loving their songs!
I love people talking about lamp, theyre music was part of my coming of age. Your channel is so nice
If you listen to Ichiko Aoba, keep your eye out for that video, it'll be out in a few weeks! Appreciate the kind words.
I found Lamp A few months ago and they have help me through a lot. I have recently went through a break up and they were able to cheer me up through it. Lamp has changed my life I love them, their music makes me so happy and relieved❣️❣️🫶🏽
Going to see them Aug 31st!
Yeaaa the world tour is super exciting! don't think I'll make it unfortunately
I love lamp so much !! I remember while listening to city pop 3 years ago having A都市の秋 randomly appear in my feed some other songs started to get recommended ! might not be the most popular choice but i would place ゆめ as my first album even if ive listened to 幻想 and 恋人へ way more (二十歳の恋や月の影に true blessings for you ears)
Lamp
Live Love Lamp
will never forget that summer of 2021 where i was really addicted to youtube channels creating their own japanese band albums then all of a sudden Rainy Tapestry from For Lovers played. Fell inlove with their sound immediately and the rest is history. For Lovers is my favorite album of their and will always have a special place in my heart. My top 2 album of all time under Mac Miller's Circles and above Khalid's American Teen. My favorite song of theirs is definitely Behind the Moon Shadow. it's what i imagine love sounds like. they've also been consistent being my top 1, 2, or 3rd most played artist every year when spotify wrapped comes along. man i love lamp live love lamp
great video dude
I love lamp! Will be seeing them in September
great video dude!!!!
Thank you, great video.
Thank you for making this video about Lamp!
this is such a dope video good job dude make more of these fr
I have been looking for a video like this since I discovered lamp around the same time as you. Really appreciate finally have one pop up in my recommended, as I felt really distanced from what I thought was a non-existent Lamp fanbase.
great video!
I've been a huge fan of this band! Thanks for posting this!
This is great, beautiful break downs and everything.
Listen to Elephant Gym, Yellow!, RUBUR, Meaningful stone, 800 cherries, and mitsume --- all insanely underrated chinese and japanese bands that are lamp-adjacent
AH! I love mitsume. Do you know ichika aoba?
@@whispii ofc im deep in j-music also recommend fermenting dregs
@@monkeydoesnotpaytaxes Next video probably on ichika aoba!
@@whispii windswept adan is def up there + her best studio album
Very cool video! I'm suddenly getting video essays on artists I really enjoy, so this is nice to see.
thank you ❤❤❤
im really appreciate that someone like you making video about this our lovely band . this band meant some large things to me

Its was amazing when someone has same taste in music.
I love from the window!🩶
I discovered lamp through TikTok and have loved them ever since ! I wanted to know more about lamp and your video was a perfect overview, I hope you make more lamp videos ! I’m also a huge fishmans fan and I highly recommend them especially if you’re into dream like songs :)
Also I rarely comment on TH-cam videos but the comment section has such warm and positive vibes I couldn’t help myself
haha fair enough

sry for spamming your account with comments but why are all your uploads so relevant to me- love lamp aswell. This video was super interesting. Keep it up!
lol why would I ever be unhappy about comments, I appreciate the kind words.
I LOVE LAMPPPPPPP
i heart lamp
I heart you and lamp
素晴らしい動画ありがとうございます！後1ヶ月で新アルバムが出るのが待ち遠しいですね
私も!
I found out about Lamp because of their collab with Kaede from Negicco in the album Stardust in Blue
nice profile pic 👍
hello! first of all, i want say that this is a great video about a band i really love and that it was fascinating to learn more about them.
then, the reason i'm writing this comment in the first place; i feel like i've heard your voice before. could it be that you participated in a german foreign language contest? if so that would be a huge coincidence, too huge to be probable so i'm doubting that it is actually the case, but I'll never know until i ask and it's just that you sound very very similar.
if not then this comment is a bit embarrassing but anyways, this is a great video, i wish more ppl would talk about lamp
No, I've never spoken German before haha
great video and use of editing, although the plosives are quite piercing at times
Yeah I agree, I gotta reduce that.
Opinions on Tokyo Utopia Tsushin? I LOVE that album
An excellent album of course, I don't dislike any of their albums.
Excellent album with all the Latin influence spread throughout the songs!
make a video on parannoul please if you can.Thank you
the first finger picking song i leanr is koibito he
pardon me with the white hat :")
Appreciate it
Thank you, Lamp live in Jakarta was a magical moment
Little strange that you stop after their 2008 album. Also, saying “Jimi Hendrix, a guitarist” makes it sound like you and your audience aren’t aware that he’s one of the most famous guitarists ever. Otherwise, I appreciated the info!
great video!
