Never heard of Air before, they're music is cool, very nostalgic and almost video-game like!

Their Moon Safari album launched them onto the scene with huge success with their irresistible retro vibe. I was DEEP into lounge core so if you want more lemme know.

Also check out these guys to start: DJ Dmitri from Paris, Kruder & Dorfmeister, Thievery Corporation, Fila Brazillia, I Monster, Morcheeba, Zero 7, RJD2, etc.

Masako is best girl was your comment from over a year ago and it always stuck with me because it's short, funny and realistic.

I totally don't remember. That makes it funnier. I looked up Masako and found her to be in the Japanese leadership, as in Empress.

If you use the highest honorific for her name, and that is proper, then you get a palindrome: Masakosama. [Oh, in English it's not a palindrome but in Japanese pronunciation it is.]

Good to know Hennaojichansama.

Thanks, but it doesn't fit for me although I have heard it a couple of times :), usually in jest. Oh, chan and sama are both honorifics. Chan is a term of endearment for a younger person or a loved one. So you can use either but not both. Good to know you too. I'm awake at 4:30 am but will go back for more sleep soon.

I do jest in fun, not to piss you off. I don't even know if that suffix is for females or royalty or what.

Oh, you won't piss me off. Sama is all right for both sexes but say for your CEO or royalty. Also chan can be used for both sexes and usually a younger oerson or child your particularly like. Maybe the names 4 chan and 8 chan we playing around with this term even though it means channel too. Getting sleepy again.

That's my jam!

Edit: Air - Mike Mills

One of my favorite instrumentals from the same album.
Low-volume road tripping tunes for taking the back roads.
