That's hardly reason to disbelieve. Secret Rendevous only has two women in it, but it is NOT about lesbians. |
Yes, but they are supposed to be talking about their troubles with guys. Or at least that is what I figured when I read the lyrics for Secret Rendevous.

As far as DDR is concerned, you should both worry more about getting good at DDR rather than participating in his debates. If you think he isn't there with everybody else, don't dignify his debates by actually trying to prove him wrong. Just say you don't trust his judgement. If you really don't care about the subject you wouldn't be debating with him in the first place. The trick really is to care more about the challenge and competition of DDR rather than stupid trivial matters. |

...I thought I read somewhere that Tsugaru is a region in Japan from whence them song itself (before it was electronicized as it is in DDR) originated.

Bringing this to a stop because this thread is annoying me with its stupidity.
1) Tsugaru is a remote region in Aomori.
2) The shamisen is a three-string guitar-like instrument.
3) The Tsugaru region is the home of the Tsugaru Shamisen style of music.
4) The song Tsugaru, which uses a shamisen, is an ode to this style of music with this particular instrument.
5) This region is also famous for its apple crops, hence Apple Mix.
Now, please, stop talking about it being about apples, or sumo wrestlers.
In addition, I'd like to point your attention to the background for Tsugaru:
What is it those strange, shadowy Japanese men are holding? Swords? Trees? Telephone poles? No..
No, a shamisen!
For more information on Tsugaru shamisen, you can reference the helpful: http://www.us-japan.org/jasnm/tsugaru/legacy1.html page.
Consider yourselves edjumicated. |
