Heard this CD the first time at the MASH TUN in Brighton, and wished I'd asked who it was by. Bar staff were dancing to it. A year later, went back to the same pub, asked the name, bought the album. Haven't looked back. A sixties/fun sound, the best track is My Baby Portable Played Sound. BUY THIS ALBUM IF NOTHING ELSE.

I hate that I love this
23 Jan 2000
Format:Audio CD
I like my music moody, and difficult to listen to. I loathe pop, and I never dance. And yet I found "Happy End of the World's" ridiculous cheerfulness to be irresistable. More than once I've caught myself singing, "La, La-la, La-la, LA la la," (those are actual lyrics) while out in public, and then I want to hide. Pizzicato Five does everything wrong: they use badly outdated pop samples, and sing in Japanese when they're not babbling complete gibberish. And yet you get the impression that they could skip merrily into Hell and make Satan himself giggle.

try something new already!
19 Oct 2002
Format:Audio CD
OK, well, my husband already thinks my taste in music is shall we say...unique. When I put this CD into the stereo and cranked it up he thought I had really lost my mind. Now he is begging me to put it on. I suppose it's not run of the mill. It's not like all the other uninspired, mindless bleck that you hear on the radio. Yes that is true. People may think you've lost your mind too until they are taken over by the catchy melodies and the way the vocals compliment the unusual dancy, loungy, martini in your hand kind of sound. You will suddenly feel superior, dare I say it, COOLER than everyone else in the world if you buy this! I feel that I am transformed into an ultra hip chick when I listen to this - sure it's in Japanese. Just take a chance and try it!! YOU WILL NOT BE SORRY.

Smile while you play this one
31 May 2003
Format:Audio CD
This was my first Pizzicato Five CD that I ever owned. About 4 monts before I got this CD for my birthday I had discovered Pizzicato Five. And I have to say that this was a good first CD for me. If you are curious about Pizzicato Five and want to try out your first CD, this one is a good one to start with (especially if you don't speak Japanese). It has a lot of great songs, and it is a good mix of English and Japanese Music. And for those of you who don't speak Japanese, the CD comes with a mini-translation booklet so that you know what they are saying.
The best songs on this CD are Trailer Music and Arigato We Love You. Trailer Music is sort of an instrumental part (the beginning they just introduce the album in the background) and then it is a catchy tune that I keep on wishing that they would have made longer. And then Arigato We Love You is more of the pop/dance genre that has a catchy toon and is in English. The only low point is the 10 minute Porno 3003, which I skip over. The rest of the songs are all different and they all are really good too.
This CD is the perfect thing to stick on a blue afternoon and then you can feel the smile run to your face.
