found, and loved, by anime

[biscuitless]

ok, i love the pillows. they r one of the best music makers around, and i would have never found out about them if it werent for fooly cooly (aka furi kuri, flcl). who else has found a singer or group that they just became obsessed, or at least really liked, becasue of an anime show?

Maaya Sakamoto, I fell in love with her voice when I heard the Escaflowne opening

[gravitation]

ooo yeah maaya sakamoto, same here! she is so great! ^__^

[Tboz]

Maaya Sakamoto for Lodess War TV, Escaflowne
Hironobu Kageyama for Dragonball, Saint Seiya
Humming Birds for Macross 7
See-saw for .hack//SIGN
Hiroko Moriguchi for Yoroiden Samurai Troopers, Gundam F91
Siam Shade for Kenshin (but I know about them before that)

All very nice... :D

[saku~ya]

I'm a real Tange Sakura fan ^.^ I have almost all of her songs. The ones I can find... imagine my surprise when I find a hard one to locate. I also lke Maaya Sakamoto.

Mmm The Pillows, makes me want to watch FLCL *again* :) Awesome stuff.

[Gaara11]

I've loved The Pillows since Berserk and recently FLCL. I checked out all their stuff and they wre all great. This IS Punk Rock!

Shinohara Tomoe, after hearing the 2nd OP for KnO (Ultra-Relax)

When I had replied to this thread the last time, I haven't watch FLCL yet. Now that I have watched it, I think the Pillows are really a great band. I really like the intro of Carnival.

Another singer I had discovered recently is Hiro-X, he sang a few songs in Prince of Tennis. :D

"FLCL has the best soundtrack of all" was what i thought when i watched it, and i still think so today :)

another one would be Yokko Kanno from Cowboy Bebop. Excellent stuff !

Naruto's second OP made me a big fan of Asian Kung-Fu Generation. Haruka Kanata is the one and only Japanese songs that I know the words to, by heart, from start to finish. Granted it's not the most complicated of songs, but it still impresses my nerdy friends. :heh: Their full length record Kunkei Five M is really fantastic stuff.

Oh and the Pillows rox city blox too. Those guys are incredible musicians. The FLCL OST's are amazing.
