Queen of KabukichoShiina Ringo
A track from the first album “Muzai Moratorium,” released on February 24, 1999.
The song was inspired by a time when, after moving to Tokyo from Fukuoka and working part-time at a record shop in Shibuya, she was persistently approached by a recruiter for an S&M club on her way home.
With “sex work” as its theme, the song focuses on Kabukicho in Shinjuku, Tokyo.
Unusually for her songs at the time, the lyrics are entirely fictional; most of her other lyrics from that period were based on her own real experiences.
Crime and PunishmentShiina Ringo
A track included on the second album Shōso Strip, released March 31, 2000.
The song was first unveiled at her hometown Fukuoka show on the opening day (April 1, 1999) of her first nationwide tour, Senkō Ecstasy.
During the MC, she told fans, “This song has absolutely no release planned, so if you want it to come out as a single, please write letters to Toshiba-EMI,” which sparked an anecdote-worthy development: fans responded to her call and actually launched a petition urging Toshiba-EMI to release it as a single.
Furthermore, the guitar on this track features a guest appearance by her idol, Kenichi “Benji” Asai (formerly of BLANKEY JET CITY).
umbrellaShiina Ringo
A track included on the self-cover album “Gyaku Yunyuu ~Kouwankyoku~,” released on May 27, 2014.
It was originally a song provided to TOKIO in 2008.
Each track on the album features a different arranger, and this one was arranged by Takamune Negishi, who produces Cocco.
The song served as the theme for the drama “Yasuko to Kenji,” starring TOKIO member Mr.
Matsuoka.
Notably, while the lyrics were in Japanese when it was first provided, the self-cover version has been changed entirely to English, which makes for an interesting highlight.

But being able to arrange a song in such a distinctive way is part of Shiina Ringo’s charm.
The vocals and Ringo’s personality are blended well, resulting in a wonderful piece.
It’s definitely worth a listen at least once.

Off-LineShiina Ringo
A charismatic figure in the J-POP scene: Ringo Sheena ventures far beyond pop, taking on a wide range of other genres as well.
Her rendition of “Autumn Leaves” on the cover album Utaite Myōri ~Sono Ichi~ is well known, but “Off-Line” is a pre-release track from the album Sandokushi, released on May 27, 2019, marking the 21st anniversary of her debut.
The song’s title is given in both Japanese and English, with the Japanese title being “TOKYO.” The piano trio backing brings out a jazzy element, yet overall it culminates in Ringo Sheena’s assertive, hard-hitting sound.
