Special collaboration single HALLOWEEN PARTY to get (re)released on 16th Oct

Oh hyde what have you done ?!?! I can't believe that HALLOWEEN JUNKY ORCHESTRA will be (re)releasing HALLOWEEN PARTY this year .

Last year , the single was released on 17th Oct & this time round , it has happened again , in line with Halloween coming real soon .

The lineup of great musicians participating in HALLOWEEN PARTY is exactly the same group of folks :

HYDE (VAMPS) / Acid Black Cherry / DAIGO (BREAKERZ) / kyo (D'ERLANGER) / Tommy february6 / Tommy heavenly6 / Tatsurō (MUCC) / Tsuchiya Anna / Aoki Ryuji / K.A.Z (VAMPS) / Hitsugi (Nightmare) / Aki (SID) / RINA (SCANDAL) / Wakeshima Kanon

Tracklist wise , a comparison between last year's & this year's

CD Tracklist ::

2012 - Old

01. HALLOWEEN PARTY (作詞・作曲:HYDE) ; written & composed by HYDE
02. Penalty Waltz (作曲:HYDE) ; composed by HYDE

2013 - New

01. HALLOWEEN PARTY (作詞・作曲:HYDE) ; written & composed by HYDE
02. Penalty Waltz (作曲:HYDE) ; composed by HYDE
03. HALLOWEEN PARTY -feat. HYDEs- (作詞・作曲:HYDE) ; written & composed by HYDE

Wow at HALLOWEEN PARTY -feat. HYDEs- so does this mean HYDE will be the only 1 singing in the song ? o_o

DVD Tracklist ::

2012 - Old

01. HALLOWEEN PARTY PV

2013 - New

01. HALLOWEEN PARTY PV
02. HALLOWEEN PARTY -feat. HYDEs-PV
03. HALLOWEEN PARTY PV MAKING

This time round , the DVD contents is more 'meatier' & the (re)release of HALLOWEEN PARTY for this year will be only in a standard CD + DVD edition , unlike last year where it was released in a regular & limited CD + DVD editions .

Is it me or does the whole thing feels like an eerie dejavu feeling of L'Arc~en~Ciel re-releasing Hurry Xmas 4 times in a row ? D: (2007 , 2008 , 2009 & 2010)

Somehow or another I'm quite tempted to get this =___= as I already have the CD + DVD limited edition of HALLOWEEN PARTY but ugh damn you hyde xD

I just hope at most the song will be sung differently & there will be a new PV for HALLOWEEN PARTY . If not I will be so pissed ~_~

Preorder links for HALLOWEEN JUNKY ORCHESTRA - HALLOWEEN PARTY (re-released) single

HMV Japan so far only has the preorder link updated at their end . CDJapan & YesAsia to follow suit in due time :

http://www.hmv.co.jp/en/product/detail/5536888

anyway from what I've seen on HMV Japan's , it looks like the 1st 2 tracks are the same as last year's , except that they just added in a hyde version of HALLOWEEN PARTY & that goes for his solo version of the PV + making for last year's PV :x

somehow I don't think I will get this single as I already have the CD + DVD LE for it :no

Utena 30th August 2013 12:14 AM

so basically, what's different with this re-release? I don't quite see the point lol

KarenPang 30th August 2013 12:21 AM

I think basically everything's the same , just that hyde includes a hyde version of HALLOWEEN PARTY this time round , be it on the CD and/or the DVD

I could be wrong but I think for the re-release , everything's the same as last year , just that they included a hyde version of the main A-side & maybe it will just him appearing in a solo version for the PV + also including a making of the PV too

So yup it's like L'Arc~en~Ciel re-releasing Hurry Xmas 4 times in a row except this's the Halloween version since Halloween is coming up real soon

No wonder Aurelie feels so disappointed in this :x

adantatu2 30th August 2013 12:32 AM

Maybe they're going to change the cover too.

KarenPang 30th August 2013 05:21 AM

Will not surprise me if hyde plans to reuse the same cover as last year -_-

I know for the reissues of Larc's Hurry Xmas they just changed the colour schemes and kept the deer motiff intact which's so lame ~_~

Well only time will tell I guess :-/

musicjapanplus+ concert report on Kaette Yuku DAIGO☆STARDUST [26th July]

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2.../DS3008131.jpg

Once again musicjapanplus+ did a great job in writing about DAIGO & this time round , it centres on the concert report they wrote on 26th July's sold out Kaette Yuku DAIGO☆STARDUST that was held at Tokyo's Shibuya Public Hall .

There're some light hearted moments in the concert report & also some touching moments , especially when they wrote that DAIGO was close to breaking down onstage during the MC portions of Kaette Yuku DAIGO☆STARDUST as when he was DAIGO☆STARDUST , he wasn't able to make it big even though DAIGO☆STARDUST had a great if not rather short discography lineup of songs .

That said , a particular moment came up was when DAIGO was joked onstage that he tried to make it big when he was DAIGO☆STARDUST but it failed big time & he became stardust instead LOL

It's 6 pages long from what musicJAPANplus posted on their website but I will copy & paste the whole concert report under the cut .

Preorder links for HALLOWEEN JUNKY ORCHESTRA - HALLOWEEN PARTY (re-released) single

CDJapan & YesAsia links are now up

http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/detailview.html?KEY=XNVP-34

http://www.yesasia.com/global/hallow...0-en/info.html

Looks like the (re-released) single will be a limited edition/limited quantity but still no excuses on re-releasing it just because Halloween is coming , hyde :eviltongu

It will be funny & not surprising if the cover for the (re-released) single will be the same as last year -_-

KarenPang 31st August 2013 03:28 AM

The cost of DAIGO's outfit that he wore on 29th Aug's episode of DAIGO P

All I can say is wow , DAIGO sure has expensive if not somewhat weird taste as what he wore in Thurs night's episode of DAIGO P O__O

What DAIGO wore , top wise as what VILLAGE (a clothes brand in Japan) wrote on their blog yesterday :

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...I/D300813A.jpg

It really looks like something DAIGO☆STARDUST might wear himself xD It's so ... flowery just like what he wore for Daisy haha

Separate jacket + T-shirt

【agr/シワ加工ネガイメージシャツ】 Wrinkled negative image shirt ; ¥17,640

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...I/D300813B.jpg

【KP generation】フラワースカルTシャツ ; Flower Skull T-shirt ; ¥9,450

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...I/D300813C.jpg

Those prices are ridiculous if not through the roof x.x although I must admit , the agr/Wrinkled negative image shirt looks good on its own but for DAIGO to wear it over the KP generation/Flower Skull T-shirt as a jacket last night , interesting x)

Tokyohive - HYDE's Halloween band to release single again this year

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...431_af_org.jpg

Quote:

HYDE's special band HALLOWEEN JUNKY ORCHESTRA will be releasing their Halloween song "HALLOWEEN PARTY" as a limited quantity single on October 16th.

"HALLOWEEN PARTY" was released last year to liven up VAMPS' Halloween event 'HALLOWEEN PARTY 2012'. Aside from HYDE, the band is comprised of Acid Black Cherry, DAIGO (BREAKERZ), kyo (D'ERLANGER), Tommy february6, Tommy heavenly6, Tatsuro (Mucc),Tsuchiya Anna, Aoki Ryuji, K.A.Z (VAMPS), Hitsugi (Nightmare), Aki (SID), RINA (SCANDAL), and Wakeshima Kanon.

The upcoming single will contain the title track, an instrumental number called "Penalty Waltz", and "HALLOWEEN PARTY -feat. HYDEs-" with just HYDE in charge of the vocals. The DVD will contain the PV and making for "HALLOWEEN PARTY" as well as the PV for "HALLOWEEN PARTY -feat. HYDEs-".

Furthermore, VAMPS will be holding their 'HALLOWEEN PARTY' event again this year. The date, venue, and participating artists will be revealed at a later date.
http://www.tokyohive.com/article/201...gain-this-year

Still think it's completely very pointless for hyde to re-release HALLOWEEN PARTY just because Halloween is coming up very soon ~_~

Wonder who will be taking part in HALLOWEEN PARTY 2013 but most definitely HALLOWEEN JUNKY ORCHESTRA will be in that's for sure .

KarenPang 31st August 2013 02:37 PM

On Thurs via DAIGO MOBILE , it was announced that a DAIGO MOBILE SHOP will be launched this coming Mon on 2nd Sept from 3pm Japan time onwards .

And already a Kumapanda item has been listed on DAIGO MOBILE that will go on sale which's this super cute item

omg how cute's this ? xD at 1st I thought they're 2 separate Kumapanda items but it's the same thing & according to what DAIGO tweeted right after DAIGO P, it's a Kumapanda patch ? (whatever that's o_O)

If DAIGO didn't said what that's , I would have thought it's a bookmark but omg Kumapanda never gets old xD

It's not mentioned how much will this be sold for , only time will tell after 2nd Sept but not sure if I want to get it hmmm

DAIGO MOBILE SHOP was officially launched today this afternoon from 3pm Japan time onwards in which Musing has opened a 'door' for it , link wise :

http://musing.jp/daigomobile_shop/

And already the 1st Kumapanda item has been listed on DAIGO MOBILE that will go on sale which's this super cute item which they called it a Patch Kumapanda :

The Patch Kumapanda is sold for 1,500 Yen via Musing . However despite this , only DAIGO MOBILE members are able/allowed to purchase it .

※こちらの商品は、「DAIGO MOBILE」会員様のみご購入できます。

Some really cute pictures that Musing uploaded on the Patch Kumapanda

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...mb-01_img3.jpg

So adorable & they even included a photo of DAIGO wearing it on his wrist !

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...0II/020913.jpg

Aww that's just super cute <3 <3 <3 & seems that this photo was taken in July as it's the same outfit (let alone background) that was used for the July batch of DAIGO PHOTO(s) + DAIGO CALENDAR xD

Musing will only ship out the Patch Kumapanda from mid Sept onwards .

こちらの商品を含むご注文は、2013年9月中旬頃より発送開始予定です。

http://www.bgv.jp/shop/detail_shop.php?item_id=4470

I still think the word Patch is a Japanese word ? It's the same as Stole but man I'm quite tempted to get this as it can double up as a bookmark ... sorta xD

I don't know if I want to wear this or something o_O but let me think about it haha

pimenta 2nd September 2013 01:41 PM

So it's really a re-release of HALLOWEEN PARTY? Meh... it's been a year, why not releasing a new song? The only new thing is Hyde's solo ver. of the same song :eviltongu (Ok, I really like Hyde, but this release is pointless)


Oh, kumapanda stuff are sooo cute! ♥ And DAIGO wearing is even cuter :P

Have to agree with you on this 1 . I really like HALLOWEEN PARTY & I even bought the CD + DVD limited edition of the single last year but I'm not going to do that this time round

I thought at most it will be an updated version but something tells me it will not be the case & I'm not so keen in hearing a solo hyde version of HALLOWEEN PARTY either

If not why bother to get so many great artistes to collaborate on the song in the 1st place ?

Strictly for die hard hyde fans only to buy this :no

Ah yeah it's so cute :D & Kumapanda is trademarked believe it or not . It's an original design that DAIGO came up with himself !

And here're 2 pics of Kumapanda merch xD

small purple charm

large purple charm

My vote is on the small purple charm but both are equally cute !

Me too, I also have the limited edition released last year, it was a great collaboration, but this re-release one just isn't worth buying :no
It could at least have more versions, like a version with a duet of Yasu and DAIGO (I would reeeally like that :blove), and another version with Kanon, Tommy heavenly6/february6 and Anna Tsuchiya, and so on, then it would be interesting, but Hyde is just petty much using this whole collaboration thing just to release a solo song of himself, so, yeah, I don't feel like buying it (I don't collect Hyde's CDs)...

Its really cute! I feel like buying that Patch Kumapanda, though I'm sure I won't wear it :laugh

KarenPang 2nd September 2013 11:51 PM

It's the same thing as what he did for L'arc's Hurry Xmas where it got re-released 3 times which's really silly

Just because of cashing/milking in for all its worth :eviltongu

It will be amusing should the cover for this year's re-release single will be the same as last year -_-

===

YouTube streaming - DAIGO in Gokigenyou+ 2nd Sept 2013

Aired yesterday afternoon via Fuji TV & it's the 1 of 3 back to back episodes of Gokigenyou+ that DAIGO will appear in from yesterday til tomorrow :

☆フジテレビ『ごきげんよう』
9/2.3.4 13:00~13:30



DAIGO looks really good & hard to believe he last appeared on Gokigenyou+ was 2 years ago in March o_o

That said , it was so funny to see DAIGO got stumped when the Sugi-chan reject comedian mocked fun of him & of course with DAIGO , in comes another short term phrase aka OSSM -_-''' + towards almost the end of Gokigenyou+ , the host got stumped by DAIGO when he talked about his late grandpa again xD

The Prime Minster gag that DAIGO used to say before on variety shows still never fails to make me laugh even up to now xD
