neko

Here's the message from dodo about the release of his single "neko" in May 2024, translated into English:

Hello everyone, how's your survival going? It's me, Dodo-chan Mandeus, also known as the borderline child-man. By the time this song is released, it might be June, but don't worry, Mandeus. What have I been doing lately? In order to live with awareness, I got some supplements prescribed by ChatGPT. Yeah, I feel a lot better, but I've also got more pimples on my back.

When I was a kid, I had a cat. It was a stray tabby cat in a place called the Dinosaur Park in Nagano. The place is on a hill, so when it snowed, it was a cold place with snow piling up. My parents were concerned and took it in. We named it Fuku-chan and took care of it, but it seemed to have strong wild instincts and ran away from home two or three times before finally leaving for good. Maybe it couldn't help it since it was a male cat. I just hope it didn't get hit by a car in Nagano where there are many. It was such a cute cat, so I hope it's somewhere staying as a guest and living well.

Because of that, whenever I see a cat on the street, I try to call it by making a sound with my mouth, but they usually get suspicious and run away. My dreams are kind of like that too, always running away. I put that feeling into a song. Enjoy the rhymes and beats extracted from Dodo-chan Man.
