6th Station ~Other Bands for H!P Fans~

I'm obsessed with this song:


RUANN is actually a Japanese singer-songwriter; this is her Korean debut. This song was written by Black Eyed Pilseung, known for many of TWICE's songs. There's a Japanese version too, but I actually prefer the Korean one.

Of her existing Japanese songs, I think "LOVE & HOPE" is the best tbh.

Live video for BABYMETAL's "Elevator Girl" [English Ver.]…



No Riho in this; like the previous video for "PA PA YA!!", they used the June 29 live at Yokohama Arena featuring Kano Fujihara.

Oh yeah, by the way, if you didn't already know: SU-METAL's English has gotten really good…



Traveling around the world every year for the last five years will have that effect.

^ Cute! I unfortunately missed their performance when they were at J-POP SUMMIT four years ago, but I did manage to get my picture taken with them.

This band randomly showed up in my YT feed with a pretty good song. Went through their clips and found one I like better, with a real late 90’s shoegaze vibe.



Moh, lordy Jorja Smith is gorgeous as hell, but why does she sound sooo much like Nelly Furtado
