yeah, it's frustrating how little information is out there, I agree. the article itself mostly rings true but what do I know? most everything in there is new to me.

xp - who's that a cover of?
No idea if Hosono produced that track. it does sound a bit like his work with Miharu Koshi. I know Hosono wrote "Tamahime Sama". If you're really familiar with his work it's apparent right away. Interestingly enough Hirasawa produces some of her later stuff, mostly with Yapoos, who are perhaps not as interesting conceptually as Togawa's solo works (or Guernica), but musically sound a bit better.

oh, I did not know that. just the title track and not the whole lp, I'm guessing?
hosono did this one too, I'm sure you've heard it:

probably my fave togawa track, and again, great live performance.

oh yeah, great song off an album I'm kind of lukewarm about. that one's got YMO's fingerprints all over it (particularly Service-era YMO)

well, that explains what happened to her voice. so glad it seems to be coming back somehow.

Escalating feelings that far exceed common sense
A rose colored love that popped up like a sudden mutation
A love so pure that you could call it violent
A love so forceful that it's already been engraved into the Showa era
Kiss me as if you're punching me, until my lips bleed
Hold me until my ribs make a cracking sound and break
I like you, I like you, I love you
I like you, I like you, I love you
I like you, I like you, I love you
If you don't say you love me, I'll kill you
Eros takes shape and breaks down the everyday
Romance overlaps with instinct, creating an endless hell
An intuitive recognition of anti-nihilism
Triggers a tendency towards latent infantile violence
Kiss me as if you're punching me, until my lips bleed
Hold me until my ribs make a cracking sound and break
I like you, I like you, I love you
I like you, I like you, I love you
I like you, I like you, I love you
If you don't say you love me, I'll kill you
