Ningen Isu - YuuRei ResSha (ghost train) Reaction

[@VinSkully]

Glad you’re still enjoying the Ningen Isu train! (pun intended) I think these are the only songs left from that original comment I made with a bunch of recommendations: Love Nirvana (has a MV with captions) Chou-nouryoku ga Atta nara (live): kzbin.info/www/bejne/a5awn319j8mAmbMsi=OYjoMmhYu8JgciSE Hell’s Mountain of Needles/Hari no Yama (live): kzbin.info/www/bejne/gomUZ6qJoZqlhJosi=blQEq8zAgSA5jg7b Odoru Issunboushi (live): kzbin.info/www/bejne/nILFeoqKi8lqp7ssi=IEsDFcUvrlr4GUxy If you’re still craving some more Ningen Isu, I have a couple more recommendations I can make: Neputa Go Home (live): kzbin.info/www/bejne/f3rHo61-o6mdhKssi=F0k-T0suLg_6SUYG - there is also an animated video for this song if you want to react to that Kumo no Ito (live): kzbin.info/www/bejne/m5aolpZqfdN7qLMsi=0PHclo1A474L2UXx Shin Seinen Maegaki (live): kzbin.info/www/bejne/imOriouVaal7f6csi=ufJs0tfCjiMuiD7p I added links for live performances because I know that sometimes it can be tricky searching on KZbin for songs in Japanese.

Thanks for another reaction to Ningen Isu. The drummer here, Masuhiro Goto, can be found these days in a band called Kinzoku-Yebis, which also served as the band for Damian Hamada's Creatures a few years ago.

No, Suzuki was NOT wearing a wig. This was his own hair, which he maintained at this length until he shaved it off around 2014 and assumed the identity of a Buddhist monk. I’ve heard several reasons why he shaved it - job required him to cut it short so he went ahead and shaved it all off, he had some sort of psychological trauma, he was sick of the grays showing up. Who knows? Wajima has played around with different personas over the year, as well as different hair lengths, depending on what his various jobs required. He finally settled on his current persona, that of a Meiji-era (late 1800s) literary scholar just about the time Suzuki shaved his head. In any event, this is one of my favorite Ningen Isu songs. Drummer Goto definitely has a different groove than Nakajima. Goto was also concurrently playing with a progressive band.
