hi! i'm actually the one who wrote most of the content on the wikipedia page, and i was really surprised to see you used my article as a source. thank you for crediting it, and i hope i was able to provide good information for your video! really well done!
dope video, totally missed all the interconnected motifs on first listen. all the imagery and context made my relisten so much better today. wish I was at the concert lol
I'm very happy to have found your channel. I've been a fan of Ichiko Aoba for almost 2 years now but learning more about her and her songs was really interesting! Thank you for uploading this and the previous video
I fucking love Ichiko Aoba’s music! I am waiting for the time where she will perform in Poland cuz I really want to go for her live concert without heaving to spend my monthly earnings as a student!
5:30 I want to help clarify these definitions: Shima Uta has historically been a term used on Amami Oshima rather than the Okinawan archipelago, to refer to their songs, literally meaning "Island Song". In modern times, this term was famously used and brought to broader discourse by the mainland Japanese band THE BOOM in their song, titled "Shima-Uta" which discuss themes of the tragic Battle of Okinawa. What makes this term very confusing is that the culture of Amami is quite distinct to that of the rest of Okinawa, despite having significant overlap and has historically been a strange transition area between mainland Japan and the Okinawan islands. Moreover, the term was rarely used on the "main" Okinawan islands but the use of it on the title of a song about Okinawa has led to Okinawans to begin using the term despite it being technically wrongly used, especially as the song began to receive widespread recognition. I've found that based off the research I've done on this topic, the impact of this band, THE BOOM, on Okinawan discourse is quite significant and very interesting. Perhaps that could be a topic you look into in the future!

chungus pulling up, thanks, I didn't know any of this lmao
What's interesting is Ichiko Aoba no longer performs "Adan Shima no Tanjousai" as its own name - she calls it "Luminescent Creatures" now.
That must have been teasing the name of the new album! You're a fortune teller
U.U.F.O.
thoughts about vansire??
Solid bro
I greatly dislike when RUclipsrs title music critique videos this way, I'll give it a shot later anyways, but it irks me a lot.
