does anyone know where i can find the episode of papapapa puffy when ayaya was on it?!
I NEED TO SEE IT

[ItsudemoAibon]

^^ It seems like PaPaPaPa Puffy videos disappear shortly after being posted........I posted the links to an entire episode that had Tanpopo as guests from July '00 (3 months after Aibon and Rika joined MM) and it got pulled very soon after.

Anyway, revisiting the Spike Girls period...........with Ami and Yumi experimenting with hair color (actually, the first time I ever saw them was the Boogie Woogie #5 video from the same time period)............and with punk music. Two of my faves, their rendition of the Blue Hearts 'Owaranai Uta':

and then their cover of a classic '80s Jpop tune, Nantettatte Idol:
http://jp.youtube.co...h?v=gZM0BpF99Bg

In Yumi's MC before the first song I linked, she says "so, we're a band now!" indicating the transition from being Jpop singers with a revolving crew of musicians accompanying them into becoming a real rock-n-roll band with real band-mates.............this was in 2000, btw. They've been rocking now for over 8 years!!

I have to say...they were really the first J-Music artists I listened to. I always say that it's Aya Hirano, but I started listening to her at the time I actually started CARING. My original love for Puffy had just tagged along with my love for 'Hi Hi Puffy Ami Yumi' and 'Teen Titans', and I still like the fact that they would sometimes play PVs instead of those weird little coloured stick figures after the end of a HHPAY episode. I eventually stopped caring, and didn't listen to them again until a year or two after. And, I admit, they're really quite good But, they're not awesome enough to beat Gackt at video games =P ((I mean, seriously, is there anything that man CAN'T do?!))

Ringo Shiina writes new Puffy song

Over the weekend, it was announced that the pop duo Puffy are collaborating with rocker Ringo Shiina for their next single. "Hiyori Hime" is written and composed by Shiina, and will be used as the opening theme of the anime series "Genji Monogatari Sennenki," starting in January.

The single is scheduled for release on February 25. The CD+DVD version includes footage of four songs from Puffy's "honeysweeper" tour last December.

First Avril Lavigne and now Shiina. Hell yea!

i agree with phob
i didnt listen to them till hihi puffy amiyumi
when i found out they were a real band i started listening to them
that was like in...2005
so this is my 4th year in liking them
omg its been so fast

[Phob]

I had a short obsession with em when I was about 10 I had found a pretty good German Fansite around that time, but I completely forget how I found it. So, even I only properly got into J-Music about December '07, I've liked it longer than I thought, even if I had given it up. My sister has beaten it into my head that J-Music was rubbish, and for a while, that's what I believed. But, now, I completely disagree, and I like to talk about it with my other J-Music liking sister =D

[sailormari]

cant wait until their new song comes out feb 25th

it be called "Hiyori Hime "

This is fantastic news. I have to admit, I've become disillusioned by the direction they're heading, the songwriting seems to be lackluster since Honeycreeper (which had some great tunes). I knew they were good friends with Shiina Ringo and I'm glad to see them collaborating with someone so awesome......................I was watching the 'Dynamite Out' DVD today and she makes me just shake my head and go 'wow!'

Two things bode well for this: 1) working with Shiina Ringo and 2) being an anime theme songs.

Edit: I just checked the www.puffyamiyumiworld.com forum and the first comment made me realize that the anime is The Tales of Genji, the most celebrated piece of Japanese literature EVER. This is too cool.

Here's the promotional picture for the single:

Happy New Year (from Ami)


You guys really helped us get thru this year.
We're really really grateful for your support!
Thank You so much!

I think this year has been a busy but good year.
I had a good amount of days off, thinking that our manager T-ishi, Roki-O was wonderful...
It was a fulfilling year for Puffy AmiYumi.

Personally,
as a working mommy...the management was really understanding,
and I was able to go to all my daughters important events so it was a great year.
Last year I was not even in Tokyo on important days...

And next year, right away, we're releasing a wonderful single ...which makes me even happier.
Ringo-chan, Thank you!
Gonna do our best!

But, none of this would come true without your support
so I really really appreciate everything.
Thank you so much!

And I wanna show my appreciation to everyone that we've worked with.
We've worked on so many great projects and thanks to everyone we had so much fun.
Thank you!
and I look forward to working with you next year!

And to everyone in the Puffy team!
Thanks for listening to all my whines and requests!
You guys are always thinking about AmiYumi,
shaving time from your sleep to support us,
and acting stupid to boost the mood at parties...
Anyway, thank you!!
This year we weren't able to do the festa ...maybe in the new year.

And of course Yumi.
I love being with you Yumi, I have so much fun.
I really think so from the bottom of my heart.
Even if I see you everyday
I don't think there is anyone else that's as calming as you.
I'm so glad you always thinking about me.
Thank you.
Looking forward to spending next year with you.


I hope that next year
is a wonderful year for you guys too.
I know a lot happens
but it's all for the best.
My road is definitely not a clean straight road
but I think a bumpy road is fun too.
So sometimes you may trip and fall
but you don't always need to get up right away
so you can just lay down and hang around for a while.
That's what I think.

I hope everyone is happy and
has a HAPPY NEW YEAR.

PUFFY`s New Year Message
our cute little dorks<3333333333

[TurtleFu]

I have to say, I was rather surprised with them. I first heard them out of "Teen Titans" and I got used to their poppy-ness
Then I listened to their newer songs, and those girls ROCK. It was awesome how they sounded. Puffy are true pioneers. One thing I also think is bad-ass is their age! These two mid-30's women rock out loud!
Puffy is awesome, and I can't wait to hear more. I hope they decide to try out the US again. I feel so bad about what happened to them. I bought every one of their US releases I could, but I guess that wasn't enough.

[ItsudemoAibon]

^^ That was too cute. And here's another clip consiting of a short interview about the MOW CMs they did (since it's ice cream, I guess MOW is Engrish for MOO?):



And just to bring everyone up to date with the latest products they're pitching here's these:

MOW CM - Making of.......



The CMs themselves:

[sailormari]
