I'll stick with Meikyoushisui if I want some jazz or big band that wasn't on The Weather Channel.

And as far as Tengu goes, I feel it was a really bad song as it was basically HH until the chorus-y part which is the same 3-4 beat phrase over and over, lather, rinse, repeat. It would've done well as maybe menu music, I guess. I'm not saying that all the other GFdm artists are so varied and never stick with a sound that works for them, but even Asaki and Kozo can radically change it up once and awhile.

Regardless, I'll always love Jimmy far more more than Thomas Howard (I'd say a million times more, but most people realize that a million times zero is still a big fat goose egg). Okay, a bit harsh but I think it's time for THL to, I 'unno, get fired or something.

Kinda agreeing on this since Tengu and Icicles sound alike.

I kinda agree on these points as well. In fact, I personally believe that other than Centaur, cockpit and a few other songs, everything else from Jimmy are just like same old stuff from him.

Indeed, nothing new here
