I agree with what you said , Jia Rong

see , sometimes simplicity is at its best . You don't need extra stuff like autotune to be included in a song which in this case , it kinda backfired for My Dear

Thankfully , World is yours was probably the 1 spark of fire I was looking for in One in a million . At least in here I feel Yamapi didn't tried so hard to fit in

The ever so hot Miura Haruma will become the new spokesperson of RUSS-K from Aug 1st onwards

お知らせいたします。
お楽しみに！！

so this probably means that NEWS might not be endorsing RUSS-K anymore once Miura takes over :O

I think their three-year contract must have expired and they did not want to renew their contract... Aww, that's too bad about it...

So, outside of Arashi, what has been going on with Johnny's artists right now!? Going in all kinds of different directions?

i actually love maki and yamapi together. i'd love if it if they would get married someday, LOL. i know, it's not gonna happen, but in my eyes, they make a good couple. keiko kitagawa also fits with yamapi, too. :tipsy

guess that goes our chances of having a new single? without RUSS-K, what other campaigns are NEWS associated with?

but honestly, i'm not too sad, cause it's.....MIURA HARUMA :smitten ugh he's too hot, haha.

NoooOOOOoooooOOOO I hope they don't break up because I just became a fan in like... March :weep

I have hope!!

I don't think they will break up just yet... let's wait till after the concert ^^;

Part of me wouldn't mind them breaking up if it means YamaP would go solo... am I a bad person??

As for YamaPi's CDTV perf, I think he was actually singing some of it. Especially since on the cd, it sounds like "baby ah wee ohvah" and on CDTV, it was like "overr" lol plus the auto-tune stuff... itz hard to tell...

i love NEWS alot, so i'd be heartbroken if they ever broke up and yamapi decides to just go solo instead. i wouldn't mind that though, cause for some reason, i love yamapi's solo music and i'm a fan of his as well. but i'd still miss NEWS cause i like all the members :yes i doubt they'd break up within the next year, though. hopefully we're not reading too much into this.

speaking of yamapi, i heard the whole single, and i love all the songs (my least favorite is Flavor Favor for you, though). World is yours is pretty nice and i LOVE My Dear :P that song could have been an a-side, but it's okay. one in a million is too catchy for me to hate it :laugh

New witness report about Kitagawa♥Yamapi

http://community.livejournal.com/ara...nt/986630.html

i read that earlier tonight :P i wish they'd just announce a relationship already if all these fan reports are true, lol.

D:

UHHH...i'm not saying anything.

but i do think contracts expire & end all the time, like Mika Nakashima with KATE, Ayu with Kose, etc.

NEWS's contract with Kose also ended last year or so , after Ueto Aya took over

I still can find the Kose Happy Bathday products being sold here at my end though xD

I just heard the new Yamapi's single and I must say I'm really disappointed :S The songs are awful, and that suprised me, because I really liked Loveless ...

Concerning the Kitagawa & Yamashita reports, maybe I am just another crazy fangirl, but I hope they aren't together...
I actually really like Kitagawa Keiko (not the case for other leading ladies with YamaPi) but hopefully YamaPi would pick a girl that knows her limits with alcohol. lol Especially since I hear he drinks strong stuff.
I love that he would sit in public instead of private rooms. I like to think that he is being chivalrous that way ^^
*watching YamaPi in Propose Daisakusen*
I got an email from cdjapan telling me my copy of One in a Million is on its way to me! ^^

lol honestly I feel there were just too many B-sides in Loveless which kinda downgrade the quality of his solo material

B-sides of One in a million are slightly better but to me nothing beats Daite Senorita overall , be it when comes to the A-side or the 2 B-sides Yubiwa & Himawari

DVD rip of Yamapi's SHORT BUT SWEET footages

one in a million @ HEY!HEY!HEY!:

I'm gonna hunt you down come day or night

LOL. wow. :laugh

i listened to the single & it's okay. but i think "Daite Senorita" is still YamaPi's best single.

xD xD xD

& agree with you Eirynne , Daite Senorita's still top notch :yes
