Shota's 1st overseas concert SHOTA SHIMIZU LIVE TOUR 2017 "FLY" in TAIPEI took place yesterday at Taipei's ATT SHOW BOX

He was surprised when quite a lot in the crowd said yes - Shota said 'I attempt to speak Mandarin , hold on' . Holding a dictionary , Shota said in Mandarin , 'I really like bubble milk tea' & 'To perform here in Taiwan , I feel happy' - Matzka attended yesterday's concert to support Shota . Both of them performed Hanataba no Kawari ni Melody wo at last year's Taiwan's Golden Melody Awards together - Shota said after the concert finished , he hoped to have another cup of bubble milk tea before he heads back to Japan . Shota jokingly said 'if you happen to see me at the night market , remember to shout out my name loud' haha |

I saw this guy popping up in places, so I decided to listen to him and he has a nice voice. ^^
That's all I wanted to say. haha |
Quote:
But I can tell you I'm not a fan of his recent music & image , too much auto tune involved which's a shame cos Shota's voice is nice , he doesn't need auto tune to conceal it :x |

Video clip of Shota which 17video posted on their Facebook , contents is in Mandarin with Traditional Chinese subtitles
https://www.facebook.com/17yourvideo...9342411735737/ Footages of SHOTA SHIMIZU LIVE TOUR 2017 "FLY" in TAIPEI are in the video clip where Shota performed Cream and Sorry Not Sorry And this's hilarious . In the video clip , the narrator said that Shota forgot to bring his electric toothbrush to Taiwan , LOL :laugh :laugh :laugh Despite this , Shota couldn't bring himself to buy a new electric toothbrush as he's so used to using it and had no choice but to live without it when he was in Taiwan haha Also , Shota once again talked about him loving Taiwanese bubble milk tea a LOT and if he could , Shota would want to drink 5-6 cups per day o_O but because bubble milk tea itself is so sweet , Shota said he will put on weight if he drank a lot of it and he also said he has no self control on this x) Lastly regarding FLY , Shota hoped that songs from the album can bring hope and courage to his fans who listen to the album |

http://www.sonymusic.co.jp/artist/sh...zu/info/490263 Not a fan of Good Life as auto tune is present again -_- Surprisingly I like the PV more than I thought & Shota's pet dog made a blink as you miss cameo appearance which's adorable |

Since this year is Shota's 10th anniversary , any chances of him doing a tour outside of Japan ? Not just going to perform in Taiwan |
Ugh. I'm so mad he autotuned another entire song. Why does he keep doing this??? :grumpy
I feel like I would've liked this song otherwise, but now it's just another song I can't listen to. :grumpy Spoiler:
|
Shota has been going overboard with autotune for the past 3 years which's really annoying :x
PROUD was really hard to listen , FLY was slightly easier but both albums are not what I will recommend if someone wants to get into his music Since Shota does everything on his own (from writing to composing to arranging) , he really should cut down if not cut out the autotune but looks like it's not happening anytime soon D: |
Shota will perform My Boo at next week's MUSIC STATION
2018年1月26日(金)20:00~20:54 <出演アーティストおよび披露曲> ・E-girls「あいしてると言ってよかった」 ・AKB48「予想外のストーリー」 ・清水翔太「My Boo」 ・JUJU「東京」 ・Franz Ferdinand「Always Ascending」 ・Hey! Say! JUMP「マエヲムケ」 I don't quite like Good Life but I thought Shota should be singing it & not My Boo |
Good Life single is now available for purchase online
https://itunes.apple.com/jp/album/go...-ep/1325436104 http://recochoku.jp/album/A200115243...ate=4350010198 |
Lol I like the new song but I don't listen to him that much.
|
Shota has a considerable number of good songs in his discography over the years but not Good Life
Even I wouldn't recommend that song to someone who wants to get into Shota's music , same thing with his recent albums FLY & PROUD which were autotune overkill I thought hearing Shota rap for the 1st time when I 1st listened to his debut album Umbrella made me cringe but not anymore |

Touyama Mirei will release her new single Dear My Boo on 7th March & the song is an answer song to Shota's My Boo
Dear My Boo will be sung by Touyama from a female perspective & the song will be 1st made available digitally on 20th Feb https://cdnx.natalie.mu/media/news/m...ixw_730_hq.jpg https://natalie.mu/music/news/266985 That's very interesting , wonder if Dear My Boo will sample My Boo's melody but I'm intrigued to listen to Dear My Boo , even though I don't quite like My Boo haha :x |

I requested my friend to help me buy Good Life online since the single hasn't leaked out
I'm in love really should have been the A-side as it's so much better than Good Life . No autotune is in the song & Shota's vocals really shine in it Remix of FIRE is quite annoying :x and I thought the original take of the song was something I couldn't stand but then again D: |
Latest Feb issue of Gekkan Songs magazine (which was released on 15th Jan) featured Shota and they did a 4 paged interview with him regarding Good Life
Here're some photos of Shota which Gekkan Songs uploaded online https://s10.postimg.org/o5bu49vw9/SASA0017s.jpg https://s10.postimg.org/vlb3q2z15/SASA0055.jpg https://s10.postimg.org/segk6g6vd/SASA0106.jpg http://songsnet.jp/06_shimizu201802.html Not so sure if the photos are included in the physical copy of Gekkan Songs |

Friday is easily Shota's most auto tune over saturated single to date . All the songs including the B-side & remix are filled with auto tune which made me have a big headache
I feel like writing to Shota to tell him to stop using it since he writes & composes almost his entire discography cos auto tune doesn't do justice to his voice which's bizarre as that's not what I got into his music in the 1st place almost 10 years ago with My Treasure I really don't want to come to a situation where I stop listening to Shota due to this which's a big shame as I think he's talented but at this rate he's going , I might as well go listen to Hatsune Miku -_- |
Shota & other artistes will be covering songs of HY in a HY tribute album CHANPURU STORY ~HY tribute~ that will be released on 8th Aug

I think it os just a style he want to do right now - both visually and soundscape wise. Artists do know, that it will alienate a fanbase, but that only does not happen, when the label controls an artist - thus getting boring in the long run (like Kana Nishino)

I don't know if it's a phrase Shota is going through but considering that I've been listening to him pretty much since his debut , the last few years I haven't been pleased with what he has came up with
The last single of Shota I genuinely like was 2015's Hanataba no Kawari ni Melody wo and after that it has been non stop auto tune tracks that he kept releasing over & over again And when I start liking the B-sides more than the main A-side within the past 5 singles of Shota , that's not a good thing Also for once I think Shota should not release a studio album this year . He should have saved that for a proper 10th anniversary best album Which's why when Sony decided to release ALL SINGLES BEST 3 years ago , I thought that shouldn't have materialised , same thing with SHOTA SHIMIZU MUSIC CLIPS 2008-2014 It's not as though Shota can't sing well . This's the same guy that sung at New York's Apollo Theatre before he made his official debut so for him to now conceal his vocals with auto tune saturation , I don't understand why And if Shota really feels that he suck vocally , then he should have done this a long time ago during his early days & not within the last few years I don't want to come to a stage where I stop supporting Shota just like what I did with other artistes that I stopped doing so over the years so for this , I'm going to keep my expectations super low for WHITE |
^as I said before, you are stuck on an old picture of an artist you like/liked. 2015 is not that far away + if you like the b-side, you still like songs of him.
And you stating "to conceal his voice because he thinks he sucks" shows that you clearly did not understand what I said before. Autotune is not a way to conceal flaws in voice and was not created for the sake of it but is rather part of an more electronic sound. I haven't listend to much of him, but I guess he did RnB before ( a very vocal heavy style) and his style now seems to be more electronic. It is not that he can't sing well anymore, but that he probably likes the sound right now and it will change again eventually. You should consider to step away for a while and enjoy the songs of him which you love than constantly holding your hands open for new songs that sound like his old style. Musicians/Artists change constantly and that is the best thing that can happen and everyone should encourage something like that. Thats being said: sony is shitty with best of albums and terrible timing. This is nothing he decided, but his contract forced him to do. |
July 2018 issue of Gekkan Songs will feature a 5 page interview on Shota where they interview him about WHITE
清水翔太 *撮り下ろし5ページ ニュー・アルバム「WHITE」インタビュー July 2018 issue of Gekkan Songs will be available for sale next Fri onwards http://songsnet.jp/nextsongs201806.html |
^sorry if I came of to harsh. wasn't meant like that - just some advise to maybe enjoy him again. I guess people have to stop to keep longing for a "sound that is like this and that song". A similar debate takes place in the ayu thread.

I don't expect Shota would return back when he 1st started in the business , sound wise but just that the last few years I've been quite turned off by what he has came up with , aside from the B-side songs that came with the singles Perhaps I might enjoy WHITE . If not then I will just wait until Shota finally comes up with something I really enjoy from him |
Friday PV was uploaded via Shota's Vevo YouTube account sometime back

This's something I thought I never see it happen but Shota will be performing with / against UVERworld next month on 5th July at Tokyo's LIQUIDROOM , as part of UVERworld VS concert series in promotion for their upcoming ALL TIME BEST album
2018年7月5日(木)東京都 LIQUIDROOM <出演者> UVERworld / 清水翔太 https://natalie.mu/music/news/287400 Seeing that both of them are music polar opposites of each other , this bound to be something really cool |

I only skimmed through the album, since with his current style I can always tell pretty quickly if I'm going to dislike the song or not lol, but I was actually pleasantly surprised by Beautiful! I think it's very reminiscent of his older style, so that was actually a pretty nice track to listen to. :yes

Beautiful will be used as the ending theme for NTV's PON! in July
http://sonymusic.co.jp/artist/shotashimizu/info/496315 WHITE has just been uploaded online , going to listen to it later on |
haraiso is right . Beautiful is well beautiful , definitely the standout track in WHITE as it no doubt reminds me of Shota's older works
Surprised that Range Rover is short . The 1st 1/2 of the song is not bad but not the 2nd 1/2 |
