Hi everyone!
Like the subject says, I just discovered these forums! I had no idea there was such a big Ikimono fanbase hiding somewhere. Actually, I made a LJ community for Ikimono, but there's not much activity on it, apart from mine~ (and I've neglected it!)

So for my intro~
I'm a girl from Montréal, QC (Canada), 25 y.o., a karaoke addict and a fan of Ikimonogakari for 2 years now. My friend sent me a few songs and I started following them from Ryuusei Miracle. Lately, I was getting tired of their songs sounding always the same, but since I watched the PV for Kimagure, my hopes have been revived!

My favorite songs : Tayumu koto naki nagare no naka de, Hinageshi, Nirinka, Hana wa sakura kimi wa utsukushi, Koisuru otome and SAKURA.
I've also bought two of their scorebooks, one for Sakura saku machi monogatari (I've been obsessed with this album!) and one that's a single compilation book, both for piano.

Other artists I'm a big fan of: Shiina Ringo/Tokyo Jihen, GO!GO!7188, Yamaguchi Momoe (I love old Jpop from the 70's/80's!), Halcali, AJICO/UA, Fuji Fabric. I also like most generic jpop to a lesser degree. And for non-Japanese artists: Malajube, M.I.A., Santogold, CSS, and more.

Also, I mentioned that I'm a karaoke addict! In my city, we don't have a Japanese karaoke place, but there's a place where they have a few Ikimono songs available, mainly the songs that were used in anime/drama.

2 disclaimers :
a) I have a deep lurker tendency, so I somewhat doubt I'll be posting much >_<
b) English is not my first language, so please be tolerant of my weird sentences ^^

Thanks!
