I wonder why the people here is like: OMFG! I can't believe it! She really did that?

And others who try to poorly defend Kanno, like if she's some sort of japaneese Stravinsky. Get over with it, shes not 100% ORIGINAL. But even if I lost half of the respect I haved to Ms.Kanno as a compositor, I'm never tired of hearing her music, because thanks to her, she opened my horizons in tastes in music.

Thank you Ms. Kanno, you may not be the great compositor I once knew, but you inspire me.

Yoko Kanno should've written the soundtrack for The Matrix. That would've been cool...

そっくりでショックでした。えーー？全ての曲が根源が同じとは思­わないけれど、少なくとも数曲は影響受け過ぎ。ショック。

I don't even know where to start on these....

Why not with this:

Find an attractive chord progression that's never been used in a popular, or once mainstream song in any genre (Hint: You can't).

Now, once you've chosen a chord progression, you're more or less stuck to a certain group of notes for the length of each chord, with which to build a melody. Especially in songs where the melodies contain long notes and few transitions.

500 characters is not long enough to rant/explain this.
