I had recently borrowed the cd from my friend Mikey, and really like it. It&#8217;s pretty much like a lot of their older discs, fun and catchy. You can pick up bits and pieces of tons of other songs. Their &#8220;Teen Titans&#8221; song sounds a lot like &#8220;Secret Agent Man&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>I find it funny that in their American songs, they pronounce Tokyo just like an American: the &#8220;kyo&#8221; part rhymes with &#8220;neo&#8221;, while the Japanese pronounciation&#8217;s &#8220;kyo&#8221; rhymes with &#8220;flow&#8221;. I love when they sing in English! But my favorite songs by them have to be Pool Nite from Spike and Nichiyoobi No Musume because it&#8217;s got that surf music style.<\/p>\n<p>I was so happy that we got to see them play during SXSW a few years back!
