Notice how karaoke didn't make it to the women's list. 'Karui' men go to karaoke on dates. But more to the point, how many men and women wish to hear what the other sound like on a date?

Cold medicine: was using ru-ru (gold)but I think I developed resistance to it. Then I got kanpo-based med at a local drugstore. It worked.

Yakusho looks normal as usual, the other actor out of it and the director, bleh - that's what drinking does to you. Get rid of the tan pleeease.

I didn't need it but i tried it just for fun: a friend's grandmother 'blessed' me by praying and crying her eyes out for my soul. I felt lighter for a moment, then the next day I felt the same. Then another time i went to a psychic center which held 'color illumination/aura' sessions in which you sit down in the middle of them and the practitioners prance about under various shades/colors of lighting. I felt lighter for a while, and the next day I felt the same.

I'm not attempting superiority and I don7t wish to write a successful novel. That song, like many Beatles' songs, is very special, to me. If I were to buy a book making references to it, in whichever context, I think I would welcome a book with an original title, not an obvious one and see it unfolding along the story, rather than revealing it on the book cover. I can't explain too well. I enjoy learning the Japanese language, it7d be nice to read more books but banana yoshimoto was disappointing.

thanks, nemur.
yeah kyushujoe, you know your music! That7s exactly what irked me abt this article, the director's opinion of this song. and Murakami using it like he did (ok I get it but dont like it). In my country that would be the same as a Pakistani (random choice) writing a book entitled 'Ela e' carioca'...weird!
ah well...

I like Jim Carrey, but The Number 23 wasn't what I expected. Yeah, it was bad.

of course he does, thats not the point. I would be glad if that was all he did, not put the song title as the book title, thats lame. IMO

thats too bad, this is one example that they should. Goes to show how lack of originality capitalizes on the success of others, to me it is a form of plagiarism. I would never read that book or watch the movie. If the author would make a reference to the song in the book I would have more respect for him. How blatant and arrogant of him. And the director is the same. How dare he categorize the depth of the song, it has and will be around for longer than his movies ever will. :b

Hancock. It didn't need W. Smith and C. Theron, who are great but a bit wasted on that one.
