      I'd go as far as to say underappreciated because most people know them only for One Week. I admit it's catchy (hell, I watched the Digimon movie religiously as a kid so I clearly can't forget it even if I tried), but they have so many better songs like Brian Wilson (which was the song that made me realize just how great they can be.)

    I've never been afraid of dying or worried about any of the dangers in this song... yet despite the fact that my problems are so different from being killed by a shark or hit by a train, this song is so reassuring and full of hope. It makes me feel so much better.
    Thank you, BNL.

    BNL, been a huge fan since the mid 90's. Especially hearing your song One Week in the English release of Digimon the Movie when I was a kid. This band along with a few others, always help to keep things upbeat even if some are worrying about the "what ifs". This is why we should live every day to the fullest by the ways we individually know best. This band has gone above and beyond in helping communities and other organizations to help others. May this band be remembered for all times as the Oddballs of Fun.

    But I subscribe to RoosterTeeth and they shared this with me (not just me) in a time I found very very dark.
    I was contemplating very serious things and I saw no way out, and sometimes I wonder how I managed, and I remind myself 'it was those ladies? The bare naked ones' ;) I thank you for showing me the way forward in life itself BNL.
