XDD It's true though. I want a sticker. I still have my sticker from Journey album...

I don't think I watched New World's PV. I watched Truth just because it was the one I saw when it came out, and I was just kind of like... they were just walking around what I assumed was Hong Kong, since no one answered my question of if it's Hong Kong.

I feel like In The Red is going to be something like Devil and Urban Dance also. And somehow I can imagine like... alarms going off in the song or something. And I think Somemore will be a ballad also. XD

Sigh. I can't wait until March. ): It seems typical that they'd release near March 14 also. XD If it wasn't going to be January, it had to be March.

Ryuichi looked REALLY unusually good in New World. I was like /drool all over him and I usually hate his face. You should watch it and drool with me~

I can totally imagine alarms going off for In The Red too... They should have made a PV for it and like... had them dancing through lasers or something. /lame

XDD I'll watch it when I get the DVD... hahaha... (cough)

LOL @ the In The Red PV thing. It reminds me of like... Let it Beat!??? AAA's thing? Except with red lasers instead of green. If they even had green lasers. I don't even remember.

I used to be quite a fan way back then when w-inds just debuted.. It was quite sad back then.. I mean many of the fans knew that w-inds couldn't get as much exposure on Japanese TV as compared to some other giant groups *ahem* cough* (no offence intended)

Back then, there were LOADs of rumours saying that some "boygroup giant" company sort of "threaten" a few music variety shows that if they allow w-inds, flame or lead to perform on their shows, this "boygroup giant" will boycott the music variety show.
--> so if you are careful enough to observe, you will never find w-inds performing or promoting their songs on certain popular music variety shows
--> if there is w-inds, most likely you will not find any boygroup from that "boygroup giant" performing on the music show; unless it is just keita performing as a soloist.

Gradually, w-inds went to promote themselves overseas. They were really popular overseas back then! There were loads of fans organizing dance classes just to learn their dance steps, and their dance steps weren't easy to learn at all. :dead2

These boys really worked hard all these years! and They are really talented! Their dance steps are really cool!

P.S. : Back then I adored this group called FLAME, who is under the same company as w-inds, however, they disbanded due to various reasons. Flame had the most handsome pair of twins I have ever saw! trust me!

^ Yeah, I always heard that because of JE, w-inds. couldn't perform on certain shows and that definitely must have hindered their ability to become popular. But considering the circumstances they're still really popular, and their single sales are increasing again.

I used to love FLAME too. Actually I loved all the w-inds/FLAME/Lead groups, but FLAME was the one I loved the least. XD I still spam their music every now and then though. It's so cheesy but I love that about it. I was more of a Kyohei fan but the twins were pretty cute. I didn't know they officially disbanded. I thought they just unofficially died. :/

^ i remember back then i really hated JE, but now I love NEWS haha. Time really change things.

Yeah they are still popular now, because they are really talented and hardworking! =]

And I really liked the way they matured all these years, I mean their looks, at least it is not so much of cute/cool little boys =]

OFF track:
i feel so much like making a FLAME thread. LoL. Between did you get to watch the movie that the twins starred in? It looked so cool from the trailer, but I didn't manage to watch it that time =\

^ I tried to watch it but I never got past like halfway. I mean it was really dumb... and cheesy... And I had no clue what was going on half the time (even with subs) so I just gave up. XD

OMFG yay @ Don't remind me!

Edit: Oh yeah, here's the preview of Don't remind me for anyone who has never heard it.

the name of this track remind me so much of their "Because of you" back then, wonder whether this 2 songs will sound alike!

Off track:
really? its that bad.. ooo no wonder i couldn't even get hold of a DVD over here.

^ Yeah, I thought of Because of you too. o: That's like one of their poppiest songs ever...

^ yeah.. back then whenever I watched Because of you PV, I always think of Backstreet Boys... :laugh

^ Me too. XD It was my friend's favorite song by them too because it reminded her of Backstreet Boys.

It's so hard to dislike it though. It's so catchy. :yes

W-inds is awesome I love Tachibana in Ohitorisama too, his a good actor, plus for some reason his blond hair seems natural and not bleached to me...

Ogata and Chiba are also really great in the band too!.
I liked thier New World single last year!

LOL... I laughed so much when I saw Tachibana Keita's blonde hair for ohitorisama. I thought about watching that drama for him, but it doesn't sound interesting enough for me. ): I'd love to see his acting though. Probably I'll just watch Shrek in Japanese one day though.

ALSO. Some advertisement in this thread for w-inds.~
