Awwww. I know that feeling. I work at a restaurant in NYC and I got the GM to put on 4 Jpop songs, one from Aya Matsuura’s recent CD, Nacchi’s single from last year (the one before Screen), one by Mika Nakashima and an electornic group called Girls Tape Store. When they come on, especially the Nacchi and Ayaya, whatever mood I’m in, it makes me happy.
But to hear it in a store, sounds mundane, but I get it. Good thing you’re in Japan! lol Doubt I’ll be hearing Momusu’s new single at The Gap any time soon, but hey, you never know! Times are changing…
It always makes me happy to randomly hear a HP song in a store. Even though before it was mostly just Kirarin and Buono because of their anime tie-ins.
I’ve noticed that even if it’s not the song there almost always seems to be a HP midi playing whenever I go into stores or one starts playing while I’m in there. Sometimes they are the most random songs too.
@Alita- I know what you mean. The grocery store by my work is always playing midi s of old Berryz Kobou stuff like 21ji made no Cinderella and Fighting Pose.
Hey! I got nanchatte renai- the 40th commemorative, and I got the little code for a chance to see the single Event. Did you want the code? I can’t use it since I’m not in Japan, but you might make better use of it. Of course, it may not be a winner, but I guess it’d be worth a try? I don’t know if you can access it by phone- but I tried going to the site and it says you need a mobile phone to access it. Let me know if you want it :O And I can email the code & website to you.
