I forgot #JMusicFriday was even a thing.

WEEKS now I was curious if Fridays were just ignored for music stuff--maybe because people have THINGS to do and HOT DATES to go on--but I hadn't noticed anything!

At last, a thing on a day with a music!

...

Right, this will be the one I don't weeb up then? Maybe.

At least we'll start that way.

What to stat with? Favorite Zard or favorite Pamelah? πŸ€”

(I guess we have our answer.)

Can't seem to find an official music video of it, tho. Sads.

Welp, I'm'a take a stab at bringing #JMusicFriday themes back, though everyone is free to ignore them. 😝

We'll see how long I can stick with; I just need something for the Friday list! This is as good as anything.

I peeled back what I could find of earlier topics, and I'll look for more when I have time, so I can dodge them. (Or at least not bring them back for a while.)

For today...? The leaves by me are starting to turn, so I think #SeasonalChanges is nice, or specifically #Autumn or #Fall in this case. (Sorry Southern Hemisphere.)

And what will I specifically drop to start?

I haven't seen any Yumi Arai/Yumi Matsutoya (Yuumin!) around, and in here absolute landslide of albums there is one "Autumn Park" from ALARM Γ  la mode (1986)

In my quest to re-#JMusicFriday #JMusicFriday I started with a small list of themes after looking at the past ones, before I dropped last week's selection, and for today it was going to be #hiking / #trekking / #journeys . Hiking feels like a fall activity, but a bit too small on its own, so...

What I had NOT realized until looking at Yumi Matsutoya (Yumi Arai / Yuumin!) works last week is that she has an absolute banger and classic, which got a young witch named Kiki started on her journey to find a city to settle down in. A perfect fit!

So here's a weird video of Rouge no Tendon to enjoy! (This also gets a modern callout, starting the car trip in Suzume.)

Also, here is the Kiki ending music, sung live and with a suitcase! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l6LmGDD5vk8

I don't have stats on previous Octobers, so for #JMusicFriday for the rest of this month--and since we end on Halloween itself--gonna fill it with what October is known for, starting with... #Candy

(Any sweets known for begging door to door will do)

And do I have any other choice? 😝

Do not accuse me of just using it as an excuse! (Though it very possibly is.)

Good morning, good morning, good morning, my fellow weebonauts! What a lovely #JMusicFriday it is, too!

And as we continue to travel to the end of October, the #spooks have come out to play. I was considering #yokai or #mononoke specifically because--you know--but any ghost, goblin, or ghoulie will work.

And how best to start this engine rolling than a rousing bit of Babymetal?

One might interpret it as "a song about living amongst ghosts and not being afraid of them, being mischievous and stuff"

Yokai are mentioned in there SOMEwhere! 😝

This #JMusicFriday we shall finish off "monthly thematic" and indeed while considering them, I was questioning the order. But since it was ending literally on Halloween-Halloween, where we'll see people dressed up at work, around town, going to parties, trick or treating tonight, I felt obliged to end with #costumes

If it can be "costume-ass costumes" like kind you would SEE at parties and around town that's great, but a bit limiting. So feel free to lean into whatever kind of fancy dress you want, and the hugest-budget #costuming a music video can offer!

To start, I am going to lean on BRADIO's "Hotel Alien" which was used as the OP for Peeping Life, for reasons that will quickly become obvious

...and also their music video

Good morning, all, and welcome to the weekend... nearly! It is a sunnier #JMusicFriday morning than usual, because they have stolen the sunlight from our evening commutes!!

A shame, but we should still celebrate. So today, as part of partying climbdowns and simply enjoying the morning sun, let us bring #acoustic to bear

It is Mellow Yellow for me, but if you have your druthers, this whole playlist is well worth the while. Even if you are not in a position to go hiking with it!

Happy #JMusicFriday all, and welcome to nearly the weekend! I picked "wind/storms" six weeks ago, and this past week for me I've been experiencing a lot, so I'll try not to pick "earthquakes as a topic" (or tornados) and risk prophetic creation!

But #wind and #storms (or related) feels like it should provide plenty of options without risking anyone's homes. πŸ˜…

I hadn't even been thinking about what to start with, so in this case I'll just use what comes to mind first, and says "yes you can dip into hurricanes if you'd like" 😘

Also I didn't know Master Keaton had an eternal wind too! So here is that one.

But also "the proper one" from Gundam F91

Also some Shining in the Storm

Good #JMusicFriday morn, my friends. I am thrilled to announce, uh...

Hm.

I'm certain I had a topic!

Oh yes, let's go with #house or #home or anything that embodies the concept for y'all.

I have a busy morning and day and afternoon, so I'm'a just drop this for now, and revisit later.

DREAMS COME TRUE - ALMOST HOME (from 2009 ドγƒͺしてます? Live Ver.)

It is a bit of a strange #JMusicFriday this morning, as for many or most it's in the middle of days off and many live in terror of shopping madness.

Therefore we have decreed to be #lazy ! It is a day for warm and comfy. A day for staying in bed. Or setting up the kotatsu for the first time. A day for anti-shopping. A day for secondary food comas. A day for the most comfort with the least effort. Anything that fits any of the above is good. 😘

I shall start with simple purity of lazy.
