Rina Sawayama talking about her ‘XS’ music video in a 2020 live stream vs on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon and how it landed her the role of ‘Akira’ in ‘John Wick: Chapter 4′.
any rina recs? i LOVE cherry & bad friend but i’m SO out of the loop on her other stuff!!
hohoho I’ve been waiting for this one
cherry is literally my favourite rina song everrr ur taste is impeccable
some recs:
tokyo love hotel - certified hit and definitely similar vibes to bad friend and cherry
paradisin’ - ok so imagine if ‘clueless’ ‘wild child’ and sofia coppola’s ‘marie antoinette’ combined their joint slay in an audio format along with British accents. That’s this song. It’s iconic and incredible and chronically underrated.
dynasty - I say every song makes me ascend but this song literally makes me ascend. It’s pop it’s rock it’s a little bit metal it’s the best album opener to exist. if u like it deffo check out snakeskin (the album closer)
holy til you let me go - queer angst, jaw dropping vocals, amazing production.
hold the girl - amazing vocals again, this one’s very uk garage (I’m aware some people hate that lmao)
frankenstein - pop perfection
cyber stockholm syndrome - very similar vibes to cherry but more melancholy???
I personally think her best project is ‘sawayama’ but all her albums/eps are made with such passion and care that they are all totally worth a listen
