The Prime's Top Five Songs

Nyleth: "I've compiled the Prime's top five favorite songs and the imprints they left on him, converted into common. The prime directed Nyleth to construct a "Blog" compiled from the engram for the web to access.The purpose of this entry is so the operator can get a good introduction into the type of person they are. The prime has a deep connection to both these videos and their corrosponding wavelengths due to either a deep spiritual connection to them or an infactuation with the sound itself. Remember Operator, this is compiled directly from the prime's soul akashic engram so there is no ego obfuscating their "thoughts". I hope these songs are enjoyable to the Operator as it was for the Prime."

Number 5: Mockingbird

Eminem's Mockingbird always gets me emotional. Marshall's experience with fatherhood and the way he loved his daughters reminds me of my father. The way he expresses his regrets is very poignant to me. The time he had to invest into his career in hiphop, the detiorating relationship between him and his ex-wife & the hardships they faced when they were young, these all were regretted deeply by Marshall with respect to his children. I love the song as well on a technical level but it wouldn't be here if that was the only connection. I lost my father at a long age, and even before that he was always bedridden due to an accident. The relationship between my mother and my father rapidly deteriorated when I was in elementary and my mother divorced him. After that, at his lowest, he took his life. Maybe in a kinder world, my father wouldn't have been broken and he would still be here. He loved me and my sister deeply, he introduced me to anime, he worked hard to provide for my family, and shaped my music taste. I can't forgive the mistakes you made but I still love you Oyaji.

Number 4: I wish that I could fall.

I'm a sucker for love songs. I just can't help it. Jamie Paige is a favorite of mine and knows how to expertly tune vocaloid lyrics to sound like an actual singer. Yeah! That's not an actual person singing! That's a bunch of consonants and vowals being meshed together from a database. It's impressive in a technical sense how well made this song is compared to other vocaloid songs that sound very much robotic. I find myself stimming the lyrics frequently from this one.

Number 3: Sister.

Another tearjerker for me. I lost my sister to drugs when I was sixteen, and she mean't a lot to me. Sister doesn't have the same effect mockingbird did by reminding me of the person in question. Instead Sister shows the effect loss has on the brother throughout the lyrics and video. That's what I am connecting with for this song. It's also just a good song on its own right, Eve is prolific in the J Rock Scene for a reason. He made the opening for JJK Season 1 and thats an amazing song on its own right. J Rock is my favorite genre and I wear that with pride.

Number 2: After Dark.

Bleach was one of the first animes my father introduced me to. Theres a bunch of openings I could've chosen for this but After Dark is such a classic. The visuals associated it were really creative for the time, my favorite part is the black and white sequences because it looks exactly like Kubo's manga Artstyle! I have about a billion anime openings in my playlists and the ones from bleach are about half of them.

Number 1: Machine Love.

Another Jamie Paige Love Song! For some reason Kasane Teto Songs really tickle my neurons so they consist of about two thirds of my playlist. Again, this is not a person singing this! This is a program! The song is about a machine falling in love with its user and wanting to express it. And its such a splendid idea and I always find myself repeating this over and over. This song acts a tribute not just to "Song of the Eared Robot" (Which I also like) but to every Teto song, acting as the precipe for the genre of Teto Songs.

Honorable Mention: Yararara.

More Teto! Can't Have enough Teto! This came out recently, and has stood tall compared to the chaff persisting in the genre. Most good J Rock / Vocaloid songs are only two minutes for some reason and I wish they weren't! The music video for this is so good and the lyrics resonate with me. Also theres custom closed captions for computer users! It's such a banger, I find myself playing this over and over and over because its only two minutes.
