I'm quite excited to hear what LOVE has to offer especially since this time round the singles included are some of their best & let alone the preview for P・A・R・A・D・O・X is still wow even up to now

Matsumoto Jun invited to visit Ohno Satoshi’s home for the first time in 14 years

Quote:

On October 9th, Arashi’s Matsumoto Jun made an appearance in TBS’s program ‘Hanamaru Market,’ and he revealed that this year, for the first time, Arashi’s leader Ohno Satoshi invited him to his house. Matsumoto also got a glimpse of Ohno’s room.

Matsumoto made an appearance in the program corner ‘Hanamaru Café.’ Through a pie chart, Matsumoto described what he regularly did for fun in his private life. Within this graph, ‘eating with friends’ was 35%, ‘muscle training’ was 25%, ‘appreciating/admiring things by himself’ was 20%, and ‘sleeping’ was 20%. Matsumoto was then asked by the host Yakumaru, “Have you ever gone out to eat with other Arashi members?”

Matsumoto said, “This year for the first time, I went to Leader’s (Ohno’s) house.” He confessed that this was the first time in the 14 years that Arashi was established that he went to Ohno’s house. He then continued, “It was just the two of us for about an hour. We lazed around for a bit, then we thought ‘well then shall we go eat together’ and went out to eat. We also went out for a drink. It was just the two of us the whole time.”

Matsumoto had, until this point, gone by Ohno’s house, but it seems he never went inside. This time, when Matsumoto saw a picture of one of the figures that Ohno had sculpted, he had conveyed some feelings when saying, “Oh- this is really amazing. If only I could see it for real.” Ohno had replied, “Okay,” which seemed to have brought about the circumstances.

When he was asked about the state of Ohno’s room, Matsumoto divulged, “I had the wrong assumptions. It was clean. Leader is amazing. There was a clean/uncluttered feel about the room.” By the way, after eating out together, the bill was split evenly between the two.

Kouhaku press conference


KarenPang 19th October 2013 07:55 AM

Ayase Haruka & Arashi chosen as hosts for this year's Kohaku

Quote:

It was announced that Ayase Haruka and Arashi have been chosen as the hosts for NHK's annual New Year's eve music show, Kohaku Uta Gassen.

Although it will be the first time for Ayase, who will be supporting the red team, to participate in Kohaku as the host, for Arashi, this will be the 4th consecutive year to serve as the host on behalf of the white team. It was also announced that NHK announcer Udo Yumiko will be the general host.

At the press conference held on October 18th, Ayase who appeared in last year's Kohaku as a guest introducer for the artists' song, commented, "I am nervous. While getting advice from Arashi-san and Udo-san, I hope to be able to tell the wonderfulness of Kohaku. It is a big year event. Last year, I enjoyed it very much, but this year, I want to act flexibly and bravely."

Arashi members also left comments.

Sakurai Sho said, "I would like to send out the songs from the position of being the host."

Ohno Satoshi also added, "Until last year, our record was 2 wins, 1 defeat. I hope for the white team to win again, so that we could have a long lead against the red team."

Aiba Masaki commented, "It was Ayase-san who introduced our song performance last year. This year, we are enemies. We will give it all we've got.", to which Ayase responded, "You're quite obsessive about winning, aren't you?"

Ninomiya Kazunari also gave his own thoughts, "We've been getting support from people around us although we were inexperienced (as the host in previous Kohaku). It may be the first and last time for this 6 of us (with Ayase) to participate in Kohaku, so I would like to do our best."

When Matsumoto Jun was asked to give advice to Ayase, he humbly answered, "We're not good enough to give advice, but I hope for both red and while to unite efforts."

The 64th NHK Kohaku Uta Gassen will live broadcast on December 31st starting at 7:15 pm and run until 11:45 pm.

"LOVE" is a fantastic album! i love it! :heart

all the songs are just so amazing! my favorites are "Rock Tonight", "CONFUSION", "P.A.R.A.D.O.X", and "Starlight kiss". the solos are really awesome, too! i guess it's no surprise that my favorite solo is matsujun's, lol. :heart "Dance in the dark" is so fun to listen to, i just love it! and i really like ohno's solo, "Hit the floor", too. it's a very cool song. :D

i also just watched the full "P.A.R.A.D.O.X" PV & wow! :luv2 it's totally one of arashi best PVs ever! it's perfect! and the song is really amazing, too. i absolutely loved the dancing that arashi did in the PV. they looked so hot in their outfits, too! :love the whole PV is perfection, lol. seriously, the PV is amazing! i can't stop watching it! :laugh

i just love "LOVE" so much! :heart i love every arashi album, so it's no surprise that i love this album too, lol. it really is an amazing album! :)

KarenPang 23rd October 2013 12:12 AM

Honestly , LOVE is not an easy album to get into but I can understand why out of the 8 group songs , P.A.R.A.D.O.X was the only song that got a PV as it's easily the best new song in the album

Solo wise , Aiba's unexpectedly the best as he never had a solo ballad before but he pulled it off quite well & of course Ohno can never go wrong

Even MatsuJun's solo is tolerable this time round but yeah the singles are the ones that hold quite a big weight in LOVE

I don't think LOVE will be my overall fave album of ARASHI but it's a bit different from their past albums which I think is not necessary a bad thing
