Helen of Annoy Posted February 24, 2013 #712 Share Posted February 24, 2013 712 From Wiki: 712 is a 1991 album by the Japanese rock trio Shonen Knife. The album was named after the contraction of the Japanese words for the numbers 7 (nana), 1 (ichi) and 2 (futatu), which, when contracted, sound like "na-i-fu". Naifu is the imported word in Japanese for "knife" . I wouldn’t know what they actually sound because I’m not brave enough to try listening said album. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
