For a while there, you thought that ‘song of the week’ had disappeared forever. Well, I’m glad to say, it’s back! Sometimes, music just brightens your day that much more, so I am super-extra- happy to welcome two songs in one week to make up for all the lost songs in the past.. month or so.
The singer’s name きゃりーぱみゅぱみゅ・Kyary Pamyu Pamyu does not sound like a name at all, I must admit. Nevertheless, her songs are very addicting to watch, and they do, as by my all-music-must-do-rule, brighten up your day.
Some quick background info on the singer – her real name is actually Kiriko Takemura (I am very humbly sorry to shock many people that ‘kyary pamyu pamyu’ is not her real birth name. Imagine writing that during Kindergarten.) She is also a model and blogger, often featuring in the Harajuku fashion magazine ‘Kera’.
Oh, and she is 19 this year.
Here is a lovely picture of our singer with some ketchup on her face.
PonPonPon – Kyary’s first single. Please do enjoy this psychedelically challenging ride of a MV. It’s amazing how you don’t get bored while watching, and at the same time, the music is so catchy♪ It actually topped the music charts internationally so I’m so proud of her!
Candy Candy – Kyary’s second physical single.
la la la~ Hope you love Kyary Pamyu Pamyu’s bright and bubbly music as much as I do!

Ganbare Genki! 頑張れ元気！ 
I has a question I’ve kept hidden for a long time… how do you pronounce Kyary?
そうですね。きゃりー would translate to kyari so i think just read the romaji of the Japanese.
Oh gosh, its the Ponponpon song D: It’s like the Japanese version of rick rolling 😉 I enjoyed Candy Candy a little more than her first single, but “chewing”(?)…
