Why didn't you warn me that clicking on that link would scar me for life

oh god, my dad was in this room when i licked on that link too :dead2

the song is a bit catchy though I must agree the video is... :tired

Did the director have some substances before filming the PV?

^No, that's just Japan

tee-hee :innocent

omg the song they did with LISA is so catchy

sooo excited

I got through a minute before wanting to die, I'm so scared for this now.

OF THE SONG? :thud

Well her song is only going to be a b-side...so my expectations are somewhat lower. I think Maki's song will be more urban sounding though, she didn't take all those dance lessons in L.A. for nothing :yes

i'm happy for this b-side with maki and BoA! but when will maki ever release "hear me" as her own single? :weep

Okay, so just checking:

A-Side - BoA
B-Side - Maki

Right?

Man, it's been awhile since I last heard anything by LISA. Thanks for the video ♥ you!

:yes

I'm glad you like the song :yes

and holy **** there must have been a huge surge of new Maki fans. Pretty much all of her regular discography is sold out at CDJapan. I remember a few weeks ago most of them were still there... :shakehead

I guess thats what happens when you starve the fans. :eviltongu

Holy ****! The DVDs are like the only things that aren't sold out. No, wait I take that back. WOW! I honestly didn't think what ♥ you! said was so serious.

i can't wait...

the song sounds cool.

Yeah I seriously don't know what happened LOL. Not counting DVD's the only things in stock are MAKKING GOLD, Premium best, Yaruki! IT'S EASY and Ai no Bakayarou :eek


Um anyway I've been like checking ravex website every hour hoping for an update :weep I need a preview like right now, or at least the name of the song :tired

and I uploaded this song that some of you guys might not have heard before. Wayyy back in 2000 each Morning Musume member recorded a solo song w/ a message, and it was only released through their fanclub.

message from Maki
http://www.mediafire.com/file/yxzdcmqzl1d/12

^ what??? really???? i wanted to order 3rd station :weep

thanks for the songs ♥ you!, downloading them now :D

Now I have to wait even longer to order How To Use Sexy
Thansk for the songs!

Oh no that sucks :( Well you guys can still use YesAsia or HMV Japan I guess. I still need to get the limited CD+DVD of how to use SEXY. At first I wasn't going to get it cause the cover + dvd content aren't that great...but the album is just too good :luv2

So...
MERRY CHRISTMAS/HAPPY HOLIDAYS FROM MAKI AND HER FRIENDS IN PUCCHI MONI


there aren't too many of us that post in this thread...but that's what makes it so special :heart :yes

^ Is it sad that I listen to this song every Christmas? :D

I love Gomaki! When are the going to announce the stinking single already?!?!?! and that video is just the cutest, does anyone have a performance of her when she's wearing her penguin outfit...?

^ well she will be appearing on a b-side of a BoA single which is released in February. Still no news about her official debut yet :weep

and do you mean the chicken suit? I believe that is from the encore performance from one of her earlier tours. I don't have the DVD so I'm not sure if it's included or not.
The penguin suit is from

NO! I sometimes listen to it at random times throughout the year LOL Same with Tanpopo's x-mas song...

piiiiiiiiii~ she's so cute MERRY KURISTUMAS GOCCHINNNNN :heart

and yeah, i want to see that concert with the pinguinoutfit too :love

I knew the info about the single she's going to be featured in...and lol at that clip, so cute!!! She's just like Namie, perfect blend of Cute & Sexy with amazing music!!!

Haha, adorableness! The ending is so sad, Maki didn't get to eat the fish.

:roflmao that's so cute~
i found the other episodes too: http://www.dailymotion.com/relevance...n%2BMonogatari :luv2

GOCCHIN'S PROFILE@@@


:heart

At least she's doing something though I want some solo stuff!

omgshe looks really good :love but i miss her long hair :weep

Work that animal print!

yes she looks fab :love I want her to grow her hair back though!


I'm hoping her blog opens soon too. Also maybe now that she is on a radio show...there is a chance we will soon hear clips of new songs? :D

MAKI GOTO'S FIRST RADIO SHOW HAS BEEN AIRED...

J-Wave Sweet Black Girls #01 1-5-09 - Goto Maki
credit ampedchoz :heart

and here is a brief translation provided by mixi
so you don't really need to DL it...mixi basically summed up the interesting parts. Well I'm happy that she has much more control of her career now...but she sure is taking her sweet time :rolleyes

What is about those BoA / Maki singles

There will be three versions?

Goto version
with original feat song?

BoA version
with new a side and another version of feat song?

And BoA's cd + dvd

^No, the ravex single has BoA as the a-side, and Gomaki on the b-side, then BoA's single only has BoA's song on it.

and another version of Goto's futuring as tracklist says xD

^BoA's "Eien" single, which includes the a-side to the ravex single does not include Gomaki's song, since Gomaki and BoA aren't singing together >.>...

I don't know anything more about the ravex single though, but BoA's being promoted as the a-side last I read.

this is the goto single i think its named Belive in love feat BoA

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

and this is gonna be BoA single named Eien/Belive in love feat. BoA
another version
http://www.yesasia.com/global/eien-b...0-en/info.html

there is also cd only for both

I'm confused

Eien/Believe in Love is a BoA single. The "Believe in Love" on it is a different version, the single only has BoA on it.

The other single, Believe in Love feat. BoA is a single by an artist, or group, called "ravex" And the a-side of that single features BoA, and the b-side of that single features Gomaki

Yep, Believe is the a-side.

huh? i thought boa was in america =/

and that gif is so cute :luv2

^Last time I saw BoA she was in Korea. But that's beside the point, BoA and Maki aren't on the same song. Just on the same single so they wouldn't neccesarily need to be in the same studio to work on thier some.

I'm seriously crazy for some new material but at least she's more involved in the development process and we'll hear something sooner or later.

OMG her official site got updated with new pics!

New video too!

I believe she'll do a digital single on the 21st of Jan called "Fly away"

:spazzed:spazzed:spazzed:spazzed




OKAY. Fly Away sounds pretty good but I'll need to hear it in full a few times. So far I like Hear Me better. AND OMG JUST YESTERDAY I WAS CURSING AVEX ABOUT HER CAREER :angel :heart

Maybe it's cause they heard you cursing they decided to update?
Fly Away doesn't sound bad but Hear Me is too hot to ignore~

:lech

I really hope Hear Me is the bside, but digital singles don't usually have bsides do they :o I need full song in hq, DO YOU HEAR ME AVEX? omg that was lame


Plus she still has that ravex single coming up which will be hot. I can't wait :heart

I HOPE that her digital single doesn't have Hear Me as a b-side...I think that would be a bad move, I think Hear Me deserves to be a PHYSICAL a-side single with plenty of promotion and lives. =] And Maki looks GREAT, wow.

PV PREVIEW FOR FLY AWAY.

http://jp.youtube.com/watch?v=vY1aGQ9Jtts

Watch out Namie, Kuu and BoA there is a new upcoming dancing queen~~ :heart omg it looks so good...and the budget looks more than like all her H!P videos combined :spazzed from what I can hear I think the announcer said it was filmed in Italy around Christmas time? I'm glad to see her training in L.A. paid off

OMG IT LOOKS SO COOL! :weep

Someone make me a gif from that plz? :eyes

omg FLY AGAIN sounds AWESOME!!!!! and the pv will be amazing too, im sure! :thud
and thanks for the pics howtousesexy~!!! she looks so fab :luv2

its too LQ too make a gif out of that :weep

Woot! Can't wait to hear the full song!

Oh damn. Still though the pv looks amazing. I can't wait until she gets a physical release and starts appearing on tv again :weep

The pv looks AMAZING already!!!!

OMG IA 200%!!
She needs to be the nail queen again :weep

I'm so happy everyone likes the new song too :spazzed

Never been a fan of her other stuff ... too young sounding. I really like the beat with the breathy sound. Good for her for having a comeback.

^ditto.

but wow I really want this whole song now, tis awesome.

I just watched the PV preview for Fly away...and I all I gots ta say is:

DAYUUUUUUUUUUUUUM!!

Maki-broke it DOWN!!! I don't mean any offense, but I have NEVER seen a Japanese girl stomp it out like that in heels before. NEVER!!!

It is official...Maki Goto is the official dancing queen of Avex!

^ :yes

English Tyokograph article about her return

Future physical release is possible.
Oh oh Maki is stompin' ass and demanding the dancing queen title. It's probably the 10 degrees C weather that's making her move.

Damn that girl can DANCE. I'm excited =D I hope it gets a physical release, cause I want that PV on DVD

I'm surprised that the digital release has a PV. Awesome! I'm really looking forward to it.

New songs sounds quite good! I agree it seems like she worked hard.

Well this sounds really good. Beyond my expectations. I'm glad that Maki's avex career is finally taking off. Might give me something to review!

I think what I like most is how avex seems to be experimenting with Maki, with youtube, her new image, her collaborations, etc. Also I like how avex polished her. She looks more grown-up and more of a professional artist now. If avex keeps it up she'll have potential to compete with the main avex girls.

I think avex experimenting with youtubeis omethingthey're going to do for other artists because they're puttig Do As Infinity's PVs up there and they're putting like 4 up everyday after a certain date.

Definitely loving her new image. Having the How To Use Sexy look while still being in H!P was weird. Now that she's at avex, it won't look so weird.

She should have left H!P a long time ago, I would say in 2006 after the release of her best album. UP FRONT is such a horrible agency and her career would have only gotten worse just like pretty much everyone in H!P right now :weep

Would Maki have fallen under the new rule of being over 26 I think?

She turns 24 this September. I always think she is a bit older cause of how long she has been around for, in September it will be her 10th year in show business already :shakehead

But what is this new rule? I've never heard of it before :eek If you're over 26 you have to graduate? Well doesn't really matter to me cause everyone I like from H!P is gone/will be leaving at the mass elder graduation D:

Avex and her seems to have done their homework well. 2009 looks like an exciting year for her.

she has certainly come a long way:

^ ah i love that video. I HAVE NEVER SEEN :love


she has definitely improved...and wow she is tan in that pink outfit. Mini gyaru :D

OMG OMG
I'm just too excited! Can't wait to listen to the full version of Fly Away! The 21st is almost here! *____*

WOW, didn't know she sang BE TOGETHER before. Interesting. ^^

I read something on nigihana about girls within H!P over the age of 26 would have to graduate. The rule was made this year.

Wow, 10 years already? Hoping for another 10.

wow i thought they already had a rule like that and it was a much younger age ... guess i heard wrong. XD

http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?mghtmmlgemg

credit to summerdaisuki!

This is her avex debut, right? I haven't listened to her previous stuff, but OMG, "Fly away" reminds me so much of a song that Koda Kumi would sing. THIS SONG IS AWESOME. WHERE CAN I DOWNLOAD IT?

...look at the post above you :bchuck

Yay! I wish I could download the PV, that way I could make a higher quality rip of the song, but that'll do for now. Thanks for posting the link <3 you!

Haha, I see. Silly 'ol me. Well, I was watching the PV while I was typing my post, then I refreshed the page and the link magically appeared. THANKS FOR THE RIP~~

These are the lyrics that were attached to the download file of the PV rip...they're not perfect, I'll work on them later and see if I can work out the kinks, but here's some of it so we can all sing along!

Anyway, the song is so fantastic. :heart
