recently i went to a plastic surgeon who specialized in hair. i told him to make me look like a little swedish girl. this isn't a joke! stop laughing, god darn it!

the fender twin in our favorite studio (rinky dink ogikubo) had a blown tube, so the tone didn't sound so great.

we worked on "inori" and "love in the time of global warming, part three" a little bit. it was pretty good.

then i wrote this song right here. it's, uhh, pretty incomplete. we did another take which was maybe a lot better, with more of the neat little breaks near the end -- it was pretty pornographic, and less obviously improvised than it is here.

so yeah, there you have it. the only lyric i could think of while recording this take was "ore wo mushi shiro", which is basically the rudest way possible of telling someone "ignore me!" i got the idea watching a band a couple months ago, i guess. the lead singer was totally, like, copping this attitude like he HATED being on the stage. and all his lyrics were just cheesy stuff about missing a girl or wanting to be with a girl, or about his vaguely defined "stress". it was obvious that not caring about his lyrics or his stage presence was an irreplaceable part of the act. you just see it so much these days in young japanese bands, and quite frankly, it's a little disturbing. so i thought, wouldn't it be funny if there was a guy on stage scraping a guitar and screaming "stop looking at me! fuck you guys! fuck you! stop looking at me!" only doing it in less of a nervous-breakdown fashion and in more of a pseudo-super-melodic way. that would be really cool! -- is what i thought. so i remembered that while hooting and yelping in vain along to this newborn guitar riff, and . . . that's the one lyric i bust out more than halfway through this.

if we made this a real song:

it'd be about four minutes shorter.
