1. the pillows (ザ・ピロウズ) are an alternative rock band from Hokkaidō, Japan, best known outside Japan for their contributions to the soundtrack of the anime series FLCL (Fooly Cooly).
They consist of 山中さわお (Sawao Yamanaka) -vocals & guitar-, 真鍋吉明 (Yoshiaki Manabe) -guitar-, 佐藤シンイチロウ (Shinichiro Sato) -drums-.
The band officially formed on September 16, 1989 as a four-man group. The fourth man and original bassist, 上田ケンジ (Kenji Ueda), left the band in 1992 to become a music producer and do solo work. Since then, 鹿島達也 (Tatsuya Kashima) and later 鈴木淳 (Jun Suzuki) have taken his place as supporting bassists. Neither Kashima nor Suzuki have been named official members out of respect for Ueda.
The band name is intentionally left without any capitalization.

The Pillows Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
"Take that seriously because it's important"
"Please, don't lose your temper, don't get excited"
"I still have a great deal more to tell you"
I want to see you again someday
So, leave me alone. Away with you!
"You are rotten at inside and outside"
"Tidy yourself up! Shame on you!"
"I don't dislike you, but I don't make friends"
I want to see you again someday
So, leave me alone. Away with you!
I want to see you again someday.
So leave me alone. Away with you!
Everyone told me that I was wrong
I have nothing to do with it!
They gave me a lot of advice
I don't want to have anything to do with you!
Thank You...
The lyrics of "Advice (FLCL Arrange Version)" by the pillows seem to be addressing someone who easily gets angry over trivial matters. The singer warns the person to take that seriously because it's important and to not lose their temper, treating them gently but with caution. The phrase "I still have a great deal more to tell you" suggests that the advice giver has more wisdom to impart, which the person should heed.
The second set of lyrics follows a slightly different tone. The singer is addressing someone who they believe is good for nothing and mocks them by saying that they're rotten inside and out. However, they ask the person to tidy themselves up and express that they don't dislike them, but aren't interested in making friends.
Overall, the song seems to be delivering advice with a mix of caution, frustration, and sympathy. The caution is rooted in the importance of controlling one's emotions, while the frustration and sympathy come from seeing people who are struggling and needing help but ultimately not being able to do much. The lyrics end on a somewhat bitter note, with the singer declaring that they don't want anything to do with the person they're addressing.

I've been listening to this song while reading "Chainsaw Man". Fuck what an experience!
@shoddytatti
Excellent taste
@javirumi8739
Chainsaw man is a more gory FLCL. I heard the author used FLCL as a reference or som
@MilesMolasses
I could 100% imagine this soundtrack in chainsaw man
@ElLuchoAntes2327
¿De que trata "Chainsaw Man"?
Es en serio, apesar de que no se tanto como ustedes yo quiero saber porque me intereso el nombre.
@rodolandusp562
@@ElLuchoAntes2327 Es simple de echo. Trata de un adolescente que hace un contrato con el "demonio de la motocierra" y el cual después es "reclutado" por una organización gubernamental para ser un cazador de demonios. La verdad la obra puede parecer una completa locura por los escenarios que plantea y además de mezclar bien la tragicomedia. Te la recomiendo, además está completa.
@Loansome_
Searching this up on YouTube it seems like this song is HEAVILY underrated compared to the other songs, it's like one of the best songs I've heard
