I agree~ It'd make a gorgeous poster!
CDJapan still haven't got back to me when I emailed them about it.

^ That's what first came to mind when I seen that beautiful picture of Kanon! :yes
I'd love to buy it! :D

I'M PRETTY SURE THESE ARE THE LYRICS:
(I listened as closely as possible)


Hi Miss Alice
あなた　硝子の眼で anata garasu no me de
どんな夢を donna yume wo
見られるの？ mirareru no?
魅入られるの？ miirareru no?

またあたし mata atashi
こころが裂けて流れてる kokoro ga sakete nagareteru
繕った tsukurotta
隙間に刺さる sukima ni sasaru
記憶たち kioku tachi

Hi Miss Alice
あなたが実の anata ga jitsu no
口で誰に愛を kuchi de dare ni ai wo
投げてるの? nageteru no?
投げてるの? nageteru no?

もうあたし mou atashi
言葉を紡ぐ kotoba wo tsumugu
下の熱 shita no netsu
冷め切って愛でるを歌も same kitte mederu wo uta mo

歌えない utaenai
Still you do not answer

((BTW...did anyone UL the "still doll" PV? If not, I'll gladly do it! ^^))

Thank you Ayu_no_tenshi~
They sound pretty accurate.

I upload the PV, TV version, when it first came out.

ok!
well, i made some mirrors~

SendSpace MegaUpload

^ Thank you! :D I never did download it when it first came out.

Thank you Ayu_no_tenshi~ :3

NO PROBLEM!
i love her~
hehe

I made some Kanon icons today~

^ Those are gorgeous!

Pretty icons :yes

They are gorgeous, my favourite is the first one on the second row, I always love your graphics!

AWESOME icons!

Thank you very much~

We've been blessed with a new picture in Kanon's Picture Diary.
It's about Snow White, but a very unique take on Snow White I've never seen before.

^ WHOA! She's got an amazing imagination!

I like the scans!! ^^

Arigatou!! ^^

Another new update in Kanon's Picture Diary.
It looks like one of those doll cut out things that you'd cut out the doll and then the clothes and stick the clothes on it.
Kanon says something about finding clothes for the video and that the clothes in the pictures were some that were considered or tried.

Wow. She sure is updating a lot.

She is~ But I suppose it's better than her not updating at all, and it's nice that she shares her artwork with us.

LOL it's a Kanon catgirl! Wow, I think I finally found someone who loves cats as much as I do who isn't over 50! :laugh

I love Kanon's drawings, she's so talented!
I love her kitty characters ^__^\

WOW! I haven't checked this thread in awhile, and the last drawing I saw from her was the Alice one~ all the other ones she added are SO beautiful! She's very talented...

Hey those are cute! Thanx for sharing :)
Gah! I can't wait for this single to come out >.<

Picture Diary updated.
It's a woman who looks like she's been painting and she's surrounded by books and a canvas.
Kanon says that Books and Canvas' are her favourite motifs.

The single comes out soon!
I'm getting really excited~
I hope there's a leak soon.

UPDATE!
Kanon will be appearing in the June edition of CD DATA and the June edition of Kera.

Sorry for the double post.

Picture Diary updated.
She drew herself in the red dress from the still doll PV and a set of the room the PV was shot in and explains some of the scenes.

I love how she drew herself >.<;

That's so cute! I love how artistic she is :love

i want the single to LEAK~! lol >.<

Me too~
I hope we get a leak soon, otherwise we'll have to wait until the single comes out.
I still can't believe we haven't had a preview for black bird cage yet. I'm so anxious as to what it sounds like.

Picture Diary update!
This one is a girl, sitting, getting ready to eat, and there's a cat on her plate.
Kanon says something about school meals and liking cats~ But I don't think it's the intention for the girl to eat the cat.

oh wow..i should not watch still doll at night, well i just watched it, and i love the song! her cello playing is so amazing~hehe guess i'm a fan of kanon, can't wait for the single!

hi to all kanon fans

i just watch the PV of still doll and



since i'm playing cello too, kanon might be my model to learn harder!! she played it soo good~ i think i'm fainting now~~~~

and after i saw her drawing i'm in coma now... :thud she's sooooo great~ she's sooo artisic omg i admire so much~ i love gothic too but i cant draw 'em :headache

It's nice to see more Kanon fans~ :3

Apparantely, or what I can gather with my not very good translating skills, that still doll or another Kanon song (maybe black bird cage?) is going to be used as the ending for a TV Tokyo channel 12 animation called ヴァンパイア horseman. I can't really get any information on it though.

I hope it's black bird cage, I really want to here it x___x

^^ Cool. I hope it's 'black bird cage' so that we get a preview :D

Is it just me or does it feel like this single is taking forever to come out? :thud
I know it's because it's coming out later this month...but geez lol.

It feels like it's been 7 weeks since we first heard the TV size of still doll

Oh wait... it has x_x

*Rough guess based off how today episode 7 of Vampire Knight aired*

Not long to wait now~
still doll comes out in a week!
But it does seem really long. I had no idea it was 7 weeks. It didn't seem that long. x_x

Not too much longer. It'll be leaked sooner than you know :)

^ Yeah only a week more...thank goodness lol.

Have they even announced the first press gift yet?

oh..is there a mp3 rip of still doll?
Edit: never mind, i found it~

I don't think so ;____;

so there's a single coming out soon?

omg, i need this single now!!! it's in my shopping cart with all the other hot new releases, but really i need this single, it's so gorgeous... i hope she doesn't end like alan, making gorgeous songs, but charting at like #100 u_u

The first press hasn't been revealed yet, and CDJapan never replied to my email when I asked if they knew what it was.

prussian blue - Yeah, Kanon's first single, still doll, is coming out on the 28th.

I agree fanmail, I'd hate to see such talent to go to waste.

i thought the single is out already =="

has she appeared in music station or any music programme?

No, still doll is her first single, she hasn't appeared on any music programme yet.

^too bad...

i want to see her playing cello... :cry

I hope she'll appear on a music programme, it would be nice to hear her live. We'd just have to wait until it's announced or something.

The release time is soon. I'm actually starting to get nervous about the sales. It would be such a shame if it charts low. I'm getting impatient for Black Cage, but I'm sure it's worth the wait.

^ I have a strong feeling it wont get low sales. I think she'll do fine! She has a great tie-in after all!

not all anime tie-ins are successful, unfortunately. :( so you never know.

^ Agreed :yes...in fact, there have been many artists who had special tie-ins and still got low sales. But we can only hope for Kanon's sake :(

True....there's also people saying that she will get low sales due to her style. I don't know exactly what they mean but eh, as long as the single leaks, I'm fine with it XD I know it'll be good.

they probbably mean she isn't mainstream enough. like pop and stuff. kanon is more of a rock-ish or classical kind of music, if i'm making any sense at all, lol. but you get the idea. :P

^ :yes Thanks~.
She'll do great in Europe though. They like styles like hers.

^they sell the Cd is europe too??

and stupid question here~ is she a japanese? she doent look like one~ or maybe her make-up?

^ Yup! :D

Er, that's my question too! She doesn't look Japanese to me. Maybe just a little bit but not too much. Maybe she's mixed?

I'm not sure either, now that you mention it~ It doesn't say anything on her official site about her heritage.

Apparantely the still doll PV was directed by Ryūji Seki. Anybody know this director? I can't find any information on them. I really like the PV so I'd like to see if they've done others.

I'm looking forward to Kanon's debut single :P

Just one week until the release!

LEAK LEAK LEAK!!!!
PLLLEEEEAASSSSEEEEEEE ^^
lmao

EEK! i don't think i can wait this long! *pary hard for leak!*

we are stressing >.<

I'm also waiting for the single ^^ I really love still doll

me too! still doll is amazing! my current addiction! the pv is so pretty and her cello playing is just WoW @_@

^same here ^^ every time I listen to the song I get goosebumps its so eerie - I LOVE it!! ^^

XD I love the bit of the PV where the old man's staring through the hole in the wall and it's like PERV! He was creepy~

I hope we get a leak, but a part of me fears that we might have to wait for the day/day after release.

The longer I wait, the more my anticipation for this single grows.

^ oo the old dude is creepy @_@...it's so near to the single, but it feels like forever right now!

Is there a avi version of the PV or just a mpeg version?

MEEEEEE TOOOOOOOOO
:luv2

~~~ I LOVE IT ~~~

Blah...the release date seems to be so close and yet so far away... So what's the speculation on what Black Bird Cage sounds like? I'm guessing it'll have that eerie sound still doll has... but it'd be cool to hear something different, ne?

I can't wait for this single!! I'm so excited!! Also, I've finally gotten the chance to look through her picture diary, and as an artist myself, I'm very impressed. I hope she does something with her artistic talents as well as her singing ones.

I don't know how it's going to sound but I'd kill for it to sound ManaRock xD
Well since Mana's producing her i guess that's not too far off? xD

CDJapan says something about "combination of classical music and French/electropop elements."

Picture Diary update!
It's a very nice mail woman with a lot of letters.
Kanon says that's she been receiving many letters and can't answer them all and that she shows her emotions through her art.

CDJapan have put up that the first press bonus is a wide-cap sticker~ I'm not sure what wide-cap means though. The first press has sold out now.

And a big picture of the still doll cover:

And an interview with Mana-sama about Kanon's music~
He is looking absolutely beautiful, but he's nothing short of perfection. <3
Down in the comments there's a nice person who has done some translation to to see what is being said you'll have to scroll down.
http://youtube.com/watch?v=GFn6VdrtSXE

A sticker?

;____;

Nuuuuuuu, I wanted a posterrrr @____@

The cover is sort of... boring... I wanted a new picture instead of one I'd seen before ;_;

^ The covers been out for a while~ That's just a bigger version.

Huh, I never even noticed the antelope thing in the cover before!

why Mana is so weird? >_< No offence, but I don't like him at all, and the way people treat him like if he was a god is just annoying (in my opinion)

Well... I still think he's a good musician and he's producing Kanon's music, so...
cool ._.

Okay, forgive me for I know nothing about Mana, but... is it just part of his character for him not to actually talk and just make dramatic hand movements instead? XD

Mana doesn't speak. He's always said he speaks through his music. I've only heard Mana's voice once and that was when he slipped up in an episode of Hot Wave years ago.

^ Ahhh I see. Thanks for explaining! :)

That's fine! I love talking about Mana~ <3 I've been a fan for eight years.

how does he live like that, though, without talking? maybe i don't know much, lol.

A sticker? How boring :(

I personally think the cover is just gorgeous.
The picture of Kanon and the detail is beautiful~

He doesn't talk in public, that doesn't mean he doesn't talk behind the scenes and to his bandmates and such. I find it adorable~ His hand movements are so elegant, and it's cute to see him stroke K's head.

ohh i understand now. anyway, kanon reminds me of shoko nakagawa in that interview, lol.

Mana is an interesting man. I find it cool that he uses mainly movements when spoken to. Also that he speaks through his music. <3
Amazing man.

@Sakura_Genki
Oh...thanks. Electropop should prove to be interesting. Mana's an interesting character, he sorta reminds me of...I dunno, but he reminds me of someone.

omg i never heard of him until i saw the video

0.o quite impressing guy~ really unique and i love his outfit and hand sign~ so elegance

:hi5

He's a very elegant man~ And he's looking a lot more younger lately. He's has a very good aesthetic eye for music as well which is why I think Kanon will do very well with his instruction and guidance.

Mana will be appearing on MUSIC ON! TV News & Clips, which is on from 9:00 til 10:00, on the 26th and will be commenting about producing Kanon.

There's also stuff on this animated episode thing that Kanon has the ending song for but I can't translate much of it.

i think that could be "still doll". it was used for the anime, "Vampire Knight".

No, she's apparantely doing another ending for an animated thing called ヴァンパイア horseman which is on TV Tokyo channel 12.

ohh. maybe it'll be her next single?

It'd be nice to hear the prospect of a next single~ Especially with Mana's releases being rather slow.

A new single would be good :)

We haven't even gotten her first single, and we're already talking about her second...?

I'd wait to see if the b-side is any good myself >.> There ARE such things as one-hit wonders...
