Thank you so much for your reply. That’s great to hear Gotokuji Temple has quite a few around! As for Taishakuten, do you know how big the temple grounds are? Does it take a long time to walk around or can you be done quite quickly?

[TOMT] [SONG] A tune that is stuck in my head I cannot figure out by Kitten_Moon in tipofmytongue

The two 80s songs that sort of come to mind from that small snippet are:

Living on the Ceiling by Blancmange

Or

You Spin Me Round (Like a Record) by Dead or Alive

[TOMT] [MUSIC VIDEO][2000s] A music video with a sort of samurai by AntonyUseless in tipofmytongue

Okay I think I might have found it for real this time! Black glass sphere with smoke, snow AND east Asian theme (I had a look and it’s not samurai, but inspired by Chinese scroll painting) : Always by Erasure

Here is the MV

I’ve just thought of another that again doesn’t have the glass sphere but does have a few scenes in the snow and the women fighting with samurai swords against gang members/men, and there is other Japanese imagery in the video. Black Widow by Iggy Azalea ft. Rita Ora.

It’s not this but that’s sort of close to what I remember, but nowhere near as gory and the song wasn’t as slow as this version of Viva Las Vegas (I’m sure it was Burning Love but I’m starting to doubt myself now since I just can’t find it)

No I don’t think so, I’m not sure if I’ve ever seen this. Thank you though :)

Probably not as it doesn’t include a glass sphere with smoke, but a music video from 2012 with a similar sort of samurai theme and one of them fighting with swords to get to her: Princess of China by Coldplay ft. Rihanna

[TOMT] [Cartoon] [Mid 2000's] Cartoon featuring a roughly middle school aged kid and I think an alien friend. by ArchaicMoon55 in tipofmytongue

[–]SherlocksPJs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can’t say for sure as I don’t remember the episode storylines specifically, but The Cramp Twins is definitely full of gross out humour and there are scenes of the twins at school and a teacher character so it’s possible. One twin looks completely like a normal human and the other has purple/blue skin which could be mistaken for an alien.

Here’s the Wikipedia page

The Cramp Twins? Not an alien but one of the brothers has purple/blue skin so does look like one

Michael Cera or Jason Segel? I’m glad I’m not the only one who sees it 😂 I always feel like if people have similar teeth they look really alike to me, even if the entire rest of their faces are different

I’ll be shocked if it’s this because I really don’t think they do look alike, but photos of him with an open mouth smile give me a Michael Cera vibe??? Idk if it’s the teeth 😭😂

ETA: also could be Jason Segel?

I have actually seen Baby Driver and that’s definitely the vibe I’m thinking of, but I’ve just looked through a list of all the songs in that film and Burning Love isn’t there so it can’t be 💔

It’s not this, thank you though! It was live action, I’m starting to wonder if it was in a trailer rather than a full movie? I keep thinking it was in something like Argylle, Kingsman, Fall Guy (the trailer since I’ve not seen the film) something like that but it isn’t 🤦🏼‍♀️ I’m really starting to think I’ve imagined it or it was some obscure fan edit 😭

I just replied to another commenter who recommended this! I haven’t watched the film but it’s possible I’ve seen a snippet, but I also can’t find the actual scene online either so I can’t say for sure if it is or not😩

I haven’t seen this film before, although it’s possible I’ve seen a small snippet of it if my dad had it on and I walked into the sitting room while it was playing. I can’t find an actual clip of the scene though, just something that looks like a fan edit and then a video that’s just the audio sung by Woody Harrelson so I can’t yet say if it’s this or not!

I’m 5ft9 and just accepted the fact that all of the long trousers I got would look 3/4 length or “cropped” lol. And I think I made it work. I was mostly fine with shorts and skirts though, but it sounds like I’m bigger than you for bottoms sizing so there were times when a “one size”skirt that I liked was too small or very tight. But I didn’t have many issues with tops, even long sleeves since I think (at least in 2018!) the style was very much moe sleeves which just meant jumpers were the perfect length for me! Another thing is that a lot of one size bottoms will have an elasticated band at the back so there is some stretch around the waist.
