A Driving Rain in Darkness, Σ, Chastity at Midnight, and Stem

Yay time for catch up!



This is one of Shiina's main looks from her Yami ni Furu Ame pv. I LOVE this song. It's beautiful and amazing and wonderful. Also, the video has an overall sickly looking green look to it so I tried to imitate that in my drawing. Also, the video has relations with the video for Gibs if I'm not mistaken, but I am not sure about the story behind. It's interesting to say the least.



This is one of Shiina's main looks for the pv for Sigma which is one of the B-sides of the Gibs single. It is a whatever sort of song in my opinion though the lyrics do get stuck in my head from time to time since they are in English. Funnily enough this is one of Ringo's songs that a demo was released for and the sound of it is COMPLETELY different from the final product. I was pretty shocked when I heard it!



SO, this is Ringo as she appeared in the Mayonaka wa Junketsu pv...sort of. See, the thing is instead of it being live-action, it's animated. I heard it was because at the time Ringo was pregnant, but I am not sure if that is true. The only time you see her actually wearing this costume is in the Ringo no Uta pv. ANYWAY, this is definitely one of my favorite Ringo songs; I just love the jazzy orchestrated sound to it.



And lastly, this is Ringo as she appears in the video for her song Stem. Now I really don't care for this video even though she looks gorrrrrgeous in it. It's mostly because it's just a "oh look she's singing oh look clips from the movie this song was used in oh" type of video. BUT this song is majorly responsible for me falling in love with Shiina Ringo. It was the second song of hers I had ever heard and just the sound of it, the orchestration and her haunting and powerful voice. IT HIT ME THAT THIS WOMAN IS AMAZING.

and that's it for today. More tomorrow. Whoo!
