    I guess surely that Kimiko Takeguchi was inspired by Seiko Matsuda (松田 聖子). I think the airport scene was also inspired by the Japanese programme "The Best Ten (ザ • ベストテン)" in the episode that Seiko's song "Ao i Sangoshou (青い珊瑚礁)" was ranked in the programme for the first time in 1980.

    曲もストーリーも日本の80年代のシティポップや、意図せずスターダムに突然登り詰めてしまったりする状況を的確に表現してる。

    The idea of imposter syndrome rings true not just for Ginger Root but also for Kimiko in this video. This sense of whether something is destructive or benevolent. Passing on a possible opportunity because it feels like a cage, and then seeing someone else thrive in that environment, resulting in FOMO. There's so much happening here. It's wonderful. I mean, it's sad and tragic, but it's amazing.
    And that bassline.

      I have to agree I'm excited to see if the other song plays along with the storyline of this one because I love how the themes are applied. Also the fact that the new EP is called Nisemono or 偽者 in japanese means impostor or liar ties in really well.

      @@garrettc4435 I've been watching this video at least once a day since it came out.
      I kind of hope things work out for Kimiko as well. She left her label hanging, which isn't cool, and outwardly it seems like her motivations were selfishness and ego. But maybe the moment just felt too big for her. She wondered if she could handle success, if she even deserves to be successful. In other words, maybe she has some imposter syndrome as well. So if there's more to this story I kind of want her to be OK too.

    Loneliness Lyrics - Ginger Root
    You said I know what the seasons bring
    You said it goes with those children sing
    Oh wait it’s only half-past noon (stay tuned)
    Till the time gets quicker
    How to stand the wait
    It’s time to change your pace
    Loneliness
    Gone with your lying
    Sayin’ it ain’t it
    Oh, loneliness
    You know why
    Loneliness
    Find it out later
    Tryin’ to be slick
    Oh, loneliness
    Say goodbye
    Well no one told me when would things get real
    Just walk on by and whisper, “What’s you’re dealing?”
    Oh wow, it’s now half past two (so soon)
    ‘Cuz the time gets quicker
    How to stand the wait
    To stop and change your pace
    Loneliness
    Gone with your lying
    Sayin’ it ain’t it
    Oh, loneliness
    You know why
    Loneliness
    Found it out later

      80年代って三十路の私から見ると古くてダサい時代にしか映らないんだよなぁ。むしろ70年代のほうがノスタルジーを感じる。
      そんな私から見ても映像のくすみ具合、少しこもった音質、化粧の古さ、どれを見てもお見事としか言いようがない。

    Something about the manager in the red power suit is cool, even when panicking about her star quitting out of the blue she scrambles to figure out a solution, that's so 80s/early 90s.
    EDIT: Just noticed in the video that during their success story interview her name is subtitled as "Manager-san" from "Acrophase Company", which happens to be the name of the label releasing Ginger Root's records, amazing attention to detail. 😆

    "GINGER ROOT IS THE BEST BAND OF THE 2000'S. IM NOT JOKING"
    ↑こういう面白いコメントは微笑ましくて好きだし、水を差すつもりは1mmも無いけれど、2000年代の日本は既にこんな雰囲気ではありませんでした。
    KIMIKOちゃんの喋り方は、1970〜1980年代のアイドルや女性芸能人に特有のイントネーションです。彼女を演じる女優さんの演技はとても素晴らしいです。
    GINGER ROOTのMVは、経済的にバブル期だった日本の芸能界の雰囲気を上手に表現出来ていて面白いですね。
