Looking for music that will put me in a diabetic coma.

Talkc

Title says it all. Im looking for sugary sweet, cutsie, and down right adorable songs.

Ill take it in any language too. Some cutesy Japanese or English songs would be appreciated.

I seem to have the hardest time finding cute songs. Cute animes like Ouran High School Host Club offer some opening and ending themes with this flavor but i cant seem to find much else.

Please help!!!

I downloaded the soundtrack to Azumnaga Daioh and it's definitely best described as adorable. It has about 40 short songs and instrumentals from the show.

And mostly anything else by Mika.

Draco_Auric

Sugar Sweet!

BlackbeardonGuitar

Apples in Stereo

The Go! Team

Jens Lekman

Lucky Soul

Rilo Kiley

The B-52a

Los Campesinos!

The Polyphonic Spree

The 6ths

Also if you search for the genre Twee, I would think its pretty much what youre looking for.

Makes me sick. Stop smiling so much!!

Mates of State.

Architecture in Helsinki (first 2 albums, not their latest; it's garbage).

Shonen Knife (Japanese all girl punk band. Most of their songs are in heavily accented English, but you can import a few of their Japanese albums. Their songs are usually completely nonsensical or about a random everyday object.)

Shonen Knife - Catnip Dream

Camera Obsura. Though a few of their songs carry an underlying melancholy.

The Concretes. Swedish pop, which is usually the sugary sweetest.

The Pippetes for sure. 60's style girl group power pop.

Malajube have some pretty poppy good times songs, they're French-Canadian, though.

Malajube "Montreal -40°C"

The Flaming Lips have some very dreamy, sweet songs. "Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots" would be your best bets.

The Unicorns have a very goofy, poppy sound. Worth a shot, 'cus they're great anyway.

Vancougar have the harmonized, super melodic girl pop thing going on.

Should be enough to get you started, no?

ApexMirage

Anything basshunter.

I'm not linking to it because that would involve me listening to it for a split second.

And then you'd have to play dota?

I loathe the very fact that dota has any association with this "music"
Please spare me -_-

I feel your pain. I really do.

As was just recommended in another music thread, look into Mother Mother

http://www.myspace.com/mothermotherspace

Arms Tonite is especially adorable, though macabre in a way

The_Glad_Hatter

The "still alive" song from Portal always cheers me up...

The Black Hunter

Mother Mother is wonderful and I cannot wait to find a way to grab the next album I can't find it anywhere

Talkc

Thank you so much for the reccomendations.

I already listen to Shonen Knife and The Apples In Stereo ( discovered both of them on cartoon network years ago ) .

But now i have so much more to listen to!!!

Again, thank you so much!!

Emanon

Crystal Castles!!

Insound has it on disc

http://www.insound.com/Mother_Mother_O_My_Heart_CD/productmain/p/INS48612/

unless you're looking for a digital or vinyl copy in which case I have no idea

I need to say that "sugar" is Crystal Castles' antithesis. They don't fit in this thread. Furthermore, I don't believe that they should be supported--they're assholes involved in lots of copyright disputes in which they are clearly guilty. In interviews, they consistently come across as arrogant and sanctimonious. Their sound is unique, but I don't think it's worth acknowledging here or elsewhere.

On-topic though, I think early capsule (NEXUS-2060 and earlier) is super saccharine.

Page-

This is OT, but you can get off that horse. All that stuff was handled a long time ago. I'll be the first to admit the Crystal Castles come across as unlikable, but there are no real legal or copyright problems anymore, and you should keep up with that sort of info if you plan on spouting off about an artist anytime in the future.

That being said, Crystal Castles isn't really happy good times music, but it's still nice.

I'll second Mates of State, also The Terrible Twos, Matt and Kim, probably at least half of the Juno soundtrack maybe Nouvelle Vague? It's really up to interpretation, i suppose :P

Burtletoy

Someone should have mentioned Of Montreal by now I'd think.
of Montreal- Lysergic Bliss
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NQThpUXrZWA&feature=related
of Montreal- Disconnect the Dots
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RxsTckF5C30&feature=related

And my old guilty pleasure band. No, I'm not 10 years old. Please don't judge me based on this band.
Simon & Milo / Prozzak - Get a Clue + Stupid fan made video of annoying.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rc9skFmfxAY


Simon & Milo / Prozzak - It's not me, it's you
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jV28aw1cNlk


Plus all those Twee bands that were already mentioned/should have been mentioned.
Mates of State, Architecture in Helsinki, Tilly & the Wall, Tullycraft, Orange Cake Mix, Apples in Stereo, The Boy Least Likely To, All Girl Summer Fun Band, Suburban Kids with Biblical Names...

Page-

Ah, can't believe I forgot Tilly and the Wall. That should do it.

It's just a jingle for Fruity Oaty Bars, but I think it qualifies as sugary sweet.

Yeah, those are very Twee bands. I would add The Ting Tings, Ok Go, and Cansei De Ser Sexy

The first thing I thought of was Eric Dolphy, a famous jazz musician who died in Berlin from being in an untreated diabetic coma.

But based on the recommendations in this thread, I don't think he's what you are looking for...

OremLK

Pineforest Crunch - Cup Noodle Song

Owl City and the guys other project Swimming with Dolphins

I'd say those three bands are far more dance-punk than twee

ApathyKills

parantheses by the blow is the cutest song ever.

BigBear

I know they've already been recommended, but yeah, The Flaming Lips, Apples In Stereo, and rilo Kiley are all good bets.

Also, I don't know if you're cool with pop music, but Ingrid Michaelson is also really cute and enjoyable, especially for her well done vocals.

cj iwakura

Funny, I was just thinking about this track:

Love Shine by Kosaka Riyu

Pretty much any of her songs would do the trick.

If you're going that route then I guess you could check out Puffy AmiYumi, too.
