Eats shoots and leaves
or Funky Kung Fu Pandas Go Shopping
Puffy AmiYumi are back with a new album, Honeycreeper. It features Boom Boom Beat and songs from their latest CD single: Oriental Diamond and Kuchibiru Motion (Lip Motion).
The video for Kuchibiru Motion (song written and produced by Yellow Monkey's Kazuya Yoshii) has the girls lounging around on a bed, sexily dressed in fishnet stockings and a leopard print top. They are eating fruit. Once they have finished the strawberries it's time for them to sit on the toilet and put on makeup... sounds like it could be good eh? Well I'm not going to post it here.
Much more interesting is the video for Oriental Diamond. As Puffy PVs go it's quite low budget and simple, but it's still got their bizarre and original touch. Here Ami and Yumi appear to be visiting China, wearing Panda headgear and waving Bamboo shoots! Watch as they get involved in a bit of Kung Fu action and then shop! It's all good for Japanese-Chinese relations. This is a ridiculously catchy tune, driven by frantic drums and speeding guitars. Add on top some glockenspiel and a Chinese gong and it's damn near perfect pop.
