Toyota Uses Soundtracks in Commercials
How cool is this Toyota has used two pieces of soundtracks that anime fans will probably recognize in their Aqua commercials. Below you can watch the two spots from “maidigitv” YouTube channel.

Life Leone Releases the Music Video for “I Can’t Say No”
Life Leone gives us the music video to their single “I Can’t Say No”. For some reason from what I have heard of their music just hits me right. They have an almost ’80’s/’90’s Boss sound, but with an edge. The video serves the song well, but I tend to like the story videos than band videos. That’s just me…take a look at it through the band’s YouTube channel and enjoy – Richard
Naruto the Musical
I know that these types of musicals don’t usually do well in the U.S., but maybe it will in Japan. If nothing else that cast and their costumes look amazing! Naruto is played by Kodai Matsuoka, Sasuke is played by Ryuji Sato, Sakura is played by Yui Ito, and lastly Gaara is played by Kenta Suga.
“Invincible” Third Base Remix of Morgan Shaughnessy Single
Third Base gives us a remix of Morgan Shaughnessy single “Invincible”. I don’t always like remixes, however with “Invincible” it worked for me. Check it out through SoundCloud – Richard:
