May 1st ; )

LOL i agree. :thud

Can't wait for May 1st lol!

GO GO GO alan^^

3rd week of kuon no kawa

24　3,873　alan

i love ALAN (named after the famous gardener ALAN TITCHMARSH)
she is so spiritual and i like to see that in a human being, especially a singer as it has been suggested before they have no souls
but ALAN brings us all hope

^Haha I love Alan Titchmarsh, he was the first person I thought of when I heard the name "alan" (cause I used to live near him).

Kuon no kawa is doing great, can't wait for her MS performance.

YOU USED TO LIVE NEAR ALAN TITCHMARSH!?
i am actually jealous
the closest i come to having a celebrity story is my friend's mum used to rent a house from DES LYNAM
ia it is a lame story

@_@ took me 10 minutes to find this thread @_@ :roflmao

<3<3 so when does the performances usually end up on JPS?

:roflmao

I don't know Jasmine it's hard to say , maybe at most earliest the performances & etc will be out over the weekend ?

her early chinese cover album is so goood o.0

but there are 2 different albums but both have the same songs.. lol *confused*


i never listened to them.. until today

:laugh

If I have a link in Nautiljon fastly than JPS I'll post it here because at tha moment JPS is very slow to upload stuff!

oh you guys, i'll starting my own alan gallery
http://pommy48.surge8.com/alangallery/index.php

so if you have any good alan pics, tell me!

Why does my dad keep telling me that alan is a soldier? @_@ He showed me this picture of her in an army uniform and kept saying that she is a soldier. @_@ And I wikipediaed it and it doesnt say anywhere that alan's been a soldier

^ well she was in military school(?) or some school that made you wear army clothing XD~ but she graduated

:roflmao

OK that's interesting :laugh

^ yeah, that's true... she was wearing her military uniform when avex audition was held xD she must have had look interesting xD

i wonder if she carried a weapon with her.. ;)

^ you killed me xDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

LMAO please no no :no

My dad showed me a slideshow with these pictures of her in military wear.

thanks Bryan

I don't know about you but I smell a future fashion trend with army wear in due time once again ?

lol what!!!!

ROFL!!! I hope alan never goes to war.... she's too cute for that! :P Besides, she doesn't even look scary holding a gun..

^:roflmao dont underestimate her! she probably has a ton of shooting skills she wont be needing anytime soon :P

:roflmao :roflmao

alan comes across as demure to me & NOT blood thirsty & etc :laugh

Whoa...

OMG, eeew the super thin eyebrows! NO, BAD!

she looks so damn cute in this uniform!!! <3 she had highlights!

alan moved up to #28. She was at #30 yesterday.

she looks a bit different in the first two pics

i doubt she could really operate firearms with those fake nails shes rocking.

her face looks so full in the first two pics.

:luv2 it's really great idea!



Is it really alan on the first pic Oo ??

^ ah thanks, gonna upload more pics~

i don't like her in the first pictures @_@ probably a younger alan before she went more of the natural route

Yes I think it too!

Her face is more fat than now!

it's probably baby fat as far as I'm concerned

Omg would she really have to fight in a war??

I was under the impression that she only went to a military school because of the music program they had to offer. Not to actually be a part of the military.

I... can't see alan shooting someone. It would completely go against like... most of her song's xD.

lol i think of it as just learning self defense :roflmao

ok here's the thing, she was at this vocal school when she was 16
it's in Beijing, and it's the People's Liberation Army Institute of Vocal Arts Division, well that's what I translate it as~

I'm more or less watching MS on Keyhole but its playing all choppy. :( I have no idea of alan performed yet. NEWS is performing right now. Maybe she'll perform near the end. Hopefully this stupid thing clears up by then.

------
alan just performed Kuon no Kawa.They had clips from the movie playing in the background. Seems like they want it to know she sings the theme song of RED CLIFF II.

:roflmao

yeah she's supposed to perform Kuon no Kawa which she already did so

EDIT - you can see LQ screencaps of alan via http://community.livejournal.com/news_jpop/4091868.html

Yamapi's in front of her & love that dress that she wore :luv2

Lovely picture of alan on MS

http://img5.imageshack.us/img5/3411/...4dddc4743c.jpg

The girl on the right looks like she's lost and the one on the right is looking like "-itch please". I know they're from Steropony I just don't know their names.

yay! alan and stereopony <3
can't wait to see it!

btw, do you know what is this http://alan-web.jp/gien/index.html? xD

EDIT

and what is that 'M+Seg'? a talk show?

Using my BFF aka Google translator this is what I got from it.

NOTE: This is about the part that could only be highlighted.

It talks about the earthquake of last year in Sichuan and the digital single she released. They thank the people who cooperated and say the earnings is going to be donated to the red cross.

wooo...alan on MS...i will download this week episode

LOL the 2 women behind look hilarious. XD alan looks great. :D

she is really nice. I think I prefer that haircut than her long long long hair! It's more pretty!

Shihou needs to lighten up. Giving alan the stink eye.

^ :roflmao they're just jealous

oo a mp4 rip is out~ downloading now~ do you guys want it?

edit: omg the performance gave me shivers...and she performed the full song!!! like 4 minutes~!!!! not those wimpy 2 minutes!!!!

I want the performance !!!!

And Is it possible to have a complete list of all alan's performance tv?

ok it's 124 MB

but it also includes the part in the beginning where she introduce herself~

thanks pommy

alan went from #28 to #25. I wonder how MS is going to affect her sales.

hopefully it'll help a lot now that more people are noticing her, it's good that KnK is doing so stable on the charts!

well I do hope that sales for Kuon no Kawa will fare slightly better since the weekend's already here

wee i'm so happy, 113 views for my gallery, anyone here already visited? cause i don't think i've even visited my gallery 113 times XD

I visited. Are you going to add more PV screencaps soon?

thank you~ and yeah i will :yes

i'm working on adding her blog pics @_@ and god she have a lot XD

lol the single has longevity... a ever-flowing river indeed. :yes

i love new alan's hair!

she looks so cute & pretty in the screencap =3

i just noticed alan's japanese blog is doing extremely well like she have an average of 200 replies on one post, while i just say hitomi's blog and the latest post had 28

if someone has too many replies, they are not likely to read all of them :O

so any new updates with regards to her 10th single ? :shrug

^ not really

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C1K8P9EQJhU
here is the MS performance and talk :D

the performance is so good, definitely one of her bests!

loved it!! she looked very gd too

I visited too. Thanks to you I discover a lot of beautiful alan's pics I never saw before^^

alan is still at #25. I guess tomorrow we'll see how much MS helped.

She did a wonderful performance at MS^^

she sang very well.. I really like it

yay thank you!!!! yeah there's probably still a lot of magazine pictures most fans haven't seen yet~

I'm addicted to Kuon no Kawa and I don't know why...

haha i'm planning on recording my own version of AENS and i'm rewriting the lyrics to it XD only got 2 stanza done...and they don't make sense :roflmao

^ I still have the tiny sound clip you did for AENS awhile back.

Great MS performance.

@_@ XD lol i don't even remember my link for that, but yeah finally got the "english lyrics" done >_> XD haha doesn't make sense at all, but oh well :D i love randomness and a good way to spread randomness is youtube :P

see the moonlight
see its beauty
do you know my pain
the voices call out to me on this endless night

so my voice is weak and hard to hear
but i want you to know
i just want you to hear my everlasting prayer
i call out in the silence of night
hoping for someone to care
but i can't seem to hold back the darkness of your heart

so i sing
that the demons of your soul will disappear
so i pray
to the boundless sky of mine
just one__ last time

the way of living is too hard
for your empty heart to take
as you wonder on in life
what do you plan to see
in this season of sadness
the world seem to overlook
that you are close to death
drowned in your own pride


so i sing
to the glorious moonlight just one last time
so i pray
to the ground that you walk on
that you will live once more

I will sing

sing in a whisper
listen to your heart
follow your dream
live once more for me

hear me
hear me

i saw KnK Musicstation performance she looked so pretty ! but i think her Music Japan perf was much better,

Pommy who is that girl in ur siggy she is very pretty

did you guys know she have a little beauty spot just on her left eyelid XD i saw that when i was looking at the screencaps~

and it's aiku maikawa

lol a beautyspot thats some close studying jasmine :P

XD lol well someone at alan-china took some HQ screencaps ;) XD

and oo my recording is done *o*, i titled the file as drowning cat :roflmao

kuon no kawa got #21 monthly
http://www.oricon.co.jp/rank/js/m/more/3/

A first for alan.

that's great to know that Kuon no Kawa has done wonders for her :D

great for alan! :D

and pommy, could you post some of these HQ caps? :D i'd be thankful ^^

alan jumped from #25 to #12.

O_O that's great for her

her maiden MUSIC STATION performance did helped after all

lol music station does wonders.

I think without MS she still would have rose but not so much. Kuon no Kawa always raises on the weekends, but MS help to get her at #12.

that's great!! :love

wow!! huge jump...MS is really workin...

@ newlook: oh yeah, i'll have it up soon @_@, i'll just put it in my gallery

<3 12 is amazing!!!!! MS really does help XD

I'm so happy for alan :).

I really hope her popularity stays up. It's good she's already announced a new single. Most artists would disappear after this and fade away without using their new popularity to benefit them.

I just hope this has proven to Avex that alan really can make it and all they need to do is make sure she has promotion. And I hope there are many more visits to Music Station.

MS works alwaysss!! hahha
