Wanted to drop this last week but been a lil sick…I hope you enjoy the video though and hopefully advantage Lucy will gain some new fans!! Also, let me know who you want me to cover next!
channels like this make me feel like we're entering a new age of internet discovery, like much of what was obscure in the 90's and early 2000's is finally coming to light after what seemed like none of it ever would. Advantage Lucy is also finally on spotify, here's to hoping we get the full discography!
Yo, awesome video! Could you make a video on Luminous Orange? They're one of my favorite bands, but I have no idea what happened to them or where they've been.
Brilliant video! Their catalog really is fantastic. I’ve seen them many times live. Don’t forget they also have a 7 track EP after Echo Park called Sept Papillons which is also excellent.
In the summer of 1998, when the name was changed from Lucy Van Pelt, the Wimbledon Championships were being held in the UK. The term "advantage Lucy" originates from "advantage server."
plz plz check out their ep oolt cloud it might be the tightest ep any band ever dropped advantage lucy is one of my favorite bands so glad to come across this vid
As a musician aiming to utilize the shibuya-kei sound in my music I'm loving how in depth you go for your topics; I can't wait to see whats next I'm in several niche groups facebook/ reddit boards dedicated to it, which makes me confident a resurgence can come soon. You should do something about Cornelius and his masterpiece Fantasma and how it truly defined the genre
Thank you!! Yeahh but only Fanfare and Station is up at least for me, which makes sense since those were released by Toshiba-EMI so my guess was they just threw those two up on streaming
Glad to have found your channel and a video covering one of my favourite groups ever, whose music always puts a smile on my face. Also great to find out there is potentially a new release soon. That's something I will look forward to. Japan was producing so many good bands around the 90's-00's period but one group maybe worth doing a video on in the future is Swinging Popsicle who had many similarities to Advantage Lucy and another band you covered in an earlier video, Cymbals.
thanks for the video! i love 90s music and sometimes it's hard to get to know japanese bands because they didn't hit mainstream before the internet was acessible as is today. Because of Tim Rogers i got to know Number Girl, and because of your channel now i know advantage Lucy and hopefully many more to come!
Lol i just left a comment about how "cymbals" deserve a video too and i saw that you already made one. Absolutely amazing. I'm happy i found this channel
I've always thought Advantage Lucy sound like if Spangle Call Lilli Line stopped being progressive and just played simple happy songs. That bossa nova track on Station is my favourite of theirs. But the first thing I've heard by them, like fifteen years ago or more, was Echo Park and it just sounded like clear sunny day. Amazing band.
Another based video. This band brings back so many nice memories. It makes me happy seeing them get love on RYM. Try covering Plus-Tech Squeeze Box next!

Holy moly, somebody made a video about advantage Lucy in 2024 !? Instant subscriber !
ive been so obsessed with this band for 2 weeks now since i caught wind of their first mini album "in harmony" thank u sm for making this video!!
Some of their best, most underrated work is on the oolt cloud EP imo. Great video!
echo park was the first album i loved enough to import as a kid, so glad people are talking about this wonderful band
Yo, awesome video! Could you make a video on Luminous Orange? They're one of my favorite bands, but I have no idea what happened to them or where they've been.
You need to delve more into the Neo-Acoustic scene in Japan as a whole. B-Flower, Gomes the Hitman are recommended!
Brilliant video! Their catalog really is fantastic.

Ohhh Interesting I couldn’t really find the reason behind the name, thanks for sharing!

I'm tryna make a song inspired by these guys, I love the vibe, and his music grew on me, specially smile again, great video❤
