TOKYO TRASH

I have disappeared from my music hobby for a while, but I feel like I might like to play music again. In the mean time, please enjoy some of my older recordings

In my younger years, I was Guitarist/Drummer of my high school band Unforgotten. I got out of playing music for a while. But now I'm back and revisiting the experimental project I started under the name "Yuku-chan". I'm now TOKYOxTRASH. (This is at least partially because I've come to realize that my gender is not exactly what I assumed it was a long time ago....)

Story behind the song

This is kind of a weird little song. It came to me in a dream one night...you know, one of those apocalypse dreams with the man-eating hamburgers. Okay, maybe you don't know. Nevermind...
Well anyway, I was in the middle of Tokyo and there were meteors falling everywhere and buildings burning and people screaming. And in the middle of it all, was this geeky-looking dude with a fender acoustic, singing this weird song here! Go figure. I have really weird dreams. I admit I added a few lyrics cuz the dream only gave me 1 verse and the chorus, but the tune was all there. *grin* I should fall asleep more often!!!! Well, I figured since it had something to do with Tokyo in the lyrics, I'd just go ahead and add a few Japanese lines. I mean, after all, Japanese people put English lines in their songs. What's wrong with a crazy American girl putting a few japanese lines in hers?!! Oh and I actually do intend to get someone ELSE to sing the song one day, preferably a guy. That's kind of why I used "boku" (male "I") as opposed to something like "atashi" (female "I").
Okay so I'll go ahead and shut up now. The quality is awful, once again, but if you listen reaaaaaally carefully, you'll be able to tell that it's an okay song. Enjoy!
And good luck trying to figure out the subliminal messages. Even I don't know...
