I'm so happy! |
hey - lets use this one.
i'll have to get the other 2 deleted. @_@ |
yay for another new thread :D
|
hot graphics :smitten
|
^:yes
the wall calendar is definitely full of sexiness! :smitten and i love the colors~ all the red made it even hotter. how's Believe/KnK charting? |
^ it was from #8 to now #4 :D
btw, at the end of this week's VS arashi, they show a CM for the AAA DVD. :cool |
|
i LOVE enhacing red on graphics in general, so that's why i'm a fan of Mika Ninagawa (the photographer of the wall calendar). her use of red is AMAAAAAZING. :D
nice to see "Believe" @ #4 today. :) |
First time seeing the calendar pics. lol Yeah, I'm late. xD But they're great. ^^
|
^lol better late than never!
you should check out the rest - Arashi's calendar was really great this year! |
I don't know about you but I don't really like their new calendar's pics that much , it's just all over the place , colour wise & my younger sister wanted to order it locally but she changed her mind after she saw the photos
+ it's so expensive too I prefer NEWS's as they're more simple & straight to the point & they all looked great in there ANYWAY before I get egged by Kaori & Lisa (joke :lmfao) , did you guys see the latest VS ARASHI ? the Falling Pipe game was :rofl & :roflmao at maximum capacity man , poor Aiba hit his head accidentally or not when he went up to try to catch a pipe or 2 but that failed HORRIBLY Lisa I don't need you to upload part 2 of the file for me now thanks :D |
^lol - the only calendar's i liked this year was Arashi's and Kanjani8's (even though I don't really like them). Arashi's had nice pictures and Kanjani8's were natural. I haven't even bothered to DL NEWS'. :bchuck :shrug
I haven't seen VS ARASHI in a while. =[ is it the one w/ Hiroki Narimiya? |

I hope Kumori Nochi Kaisei will be played later on here :grumpy , the local radio station just played KAT-TUN's On Your Mind -Please come back to me- as part of their weekly Sun night j/kpop segment & I went :thud on hearing it :smitten :D |
hiroki narimiya is SO HOT. his smile = :smitten
:laugh okay karen! glad you were able to watch the show :D |
Omg yes! Narimiya is the one who acted in NANA the movie, right? He's hot.
And kaori, I super love your avatar and banner set! I've been outta touch with the Arashi fandom lately, so sad.... It's only been three weeks and uni works are piling up. |
Thanks for understanding Lisa &

& YAY my 2 OS presses/ CD + DVD's of Believe / KNK will be mailed out by my Taiwanese friend Cliff tomorrow :D :D :D :D :D he said that he will be throwing in another photo surprise for me O_O :eyes :thud too bad he didn't said who's the person in question in the photo T_T .. I'm hoping for an Ueda one this time round but I don't think it will happen bah :( |
omg i just checked jpophelp's website, and my believe single is back to being listed on the site! which means they must have or will be getting it in, so it shouldn't be too long until i FINALLY get the CD :laugh before it wasn't listed at all, so i'm really relieved and i have positive hopes :yes

I can't wait to get the OS press when it's out & running in Taiwan in about 2-3 weeks time :D Nino in April issue of Non-no - http://community.livejournal.com/is_snowing/6553.html cute :D |
Pics of the AAA 2008 DVD - http://saragnayan.livejournal.com/8586.html
wow the insides looked even better than what I expected despite the otherwise boring cover |
omg. those performances!!!!! I love them~
i wonder if the AAA DVD came w/ a cool booklet like Time. |
AAA 2008 DVD Scans - http://saragnayan.livejournal.com/8713.html
& just for Lisa :mischief - http://community.livejournal.com/ara...02.html#cutid1 :D EDIT - I'm looking at the scans & correct me if I'm not wrong , they never included lyrics in the DVD sleeves pertaining to what songs that they did in the DVD footage ? Believe / KNK are at #4 this week :D & total sales so far - 587,554* just a bit more to crack 600K :D == Lisa's going to kill me for causing her to have another MatsuJun fit :lmfao - http://community.livejournal.com/boys_paper/598068.html Sakurai & Nino are ain't 1/2 bad either but my eyes are on MatsuJun at the mo @_@ |
^looks like Matsujun put on some weight.
maybe some muscle or something? :lech and Karen, there were no lyrics in my Time DVD. So I bet they didn't do the same with AAA 2. |
I wonder if they will take the #1 and #2 singles of the year again omg.
That DVD set looks good too, JE ones usually look amazing :yes |
ahh karen, you provide my jun needs! :laugh will look at everything now :D
|
i didn't watch it yet, lol. :3
i've been watching j-dramas, but i'm planning it for the weekend. :yes ...they totally lip-synched that "Love so sweet" performance on Music Lovers tho. |

you can download Music Lovers's performance & the talk that's raw which happened on Tue via http://community.livejournal.com/las...ays/46893.html the quality's not really good & I'm waiting for a much higher one to be up but why Love so sweet ? I thought they might do Believe anyway I shouldn't complain so much because I like Love so sweet btw can you take a pic of your One Love single ? I wanna see it Lisa :D |
When it comes to Japan, I don't really mind lip synching. :shrug
plus they lip synched their MUSIC LOVERS perfs last year too. :shrug and yaaaaay~ Lisa! I can't wait for you to get it!! this thread has been going slow lately. =[ |
yea, there seems to be a delay in news lately, lol. what should we post about in the meantime? :P
..ohh i know! let's all discuss how hot matsujun is! :smitten anything jun related always gets me posting, LOL. |
^if you asked me that 2 yrs ago...i would've talked forever XD
i prefer all members and all of their hotness. i can't really be specific on one member anymore. o: |
like i said, i don't mind lip-synching, but i don't like it when it's constant. i don't care if you're an idol, but you make music and you should do what other musicians do too, which includes live performing. if TOKIO, KAT-TUN, KANJANI8 can do a lot of their material live, why can't Arashi too, you know?
anywhooo...is Oguri Shun part of the "Smile" cast? or like one of those cameo roles? he had interesting hair in these pics i saw. :P |
looks like he really IS in the drama! :thud

OUUUU. well, i'll be watching this drama for sure! :D
OguShun's gonna play a bad guy, yay! xD |
Quote:
|
OMG OGURI SHUN! :smitten
The BFFs Reunite! :weep Arashi performs live most of the time. I was only pointing out their MUSIC LOVERS performances. Those are really the only instances that I can remember of them lip synching a lot. But even when they sing live it sounds great, since they've been out for longer, they're definitely much better at singing live than other groups. |
Quote:
reg Music Lovers , who would have thought that Ogura-san's in the crowd cheering for them ? |
well, i can't really say anything about Arashi just yet, seeing as i haven't seen a concert. however, the few performances i've seen of them have been lip-synched or heavily back-tracked, which prompt me to ask if their concerts were the same.
well, i'm gonna watch Time con on YouTube soon. & i'll post my opinions & observations. |
So far the Time concert's my fave of the guys , tension was even up there when Nino did Niji live on the piano :smitten
|
i have to say Time con is pretty entertaining (...thus far. i ain't done. xD). everything flows well & there's a high amount of energy from the guys. lots of group dynamics too. which is something i'll give them props for. :yes
but too much back-track/lip-synching. there's soooooo much of it. unless their live singing as good as their album studio recording....but i doubt it. the only thing live so far is like...Sho. i'll watch it all though. it seems more exciting than NEWS con, which i haven't finished, lol. & "Niji" gorgeous. NINO DOESN'T DISAPPOINT. xD |
Quote:
I think it helps that both of us really enjoy Time a LOT . The album tracks were totally kick ass someone once said that she's going to get the CD + DVD of Believe / KNK containing the Believe PV :innocent |
yeah, probably! but Time con is pretty entertaining nevertheless (...still not done, LOL.) "Time" isn't my favorite Arashi album though. it's "Iza, Now"...i probably should've started with the con for that album. :P but i heard great things about Time con, so i'm watching it.
well, money got tight & i'm saving for my priority artists, so i ended up not getting the single. but i'm gonna buy their next best album anyway... |
Quote:
I can't comment that much on the Iza , Now tour as I started to watch their concert DVDs from their 1st asian tour onwards I like One also . In a way if not for Kitto Daijoubu , I would say that ARASHIC & Time are my fave records of the guys Quote:
=== preview pics of Sakurai in April's Fineboys & H - http://cutetakato.livejournal.com/18459.html :smitten looking fine indeed |
NEWS cons = boring. :thud
And I haven't seen a KAT-TUN con yet, so I can't really say if they do back tracking and lip synching either. I just know that their lives (when they are live) aren't too great either. I feel like JE artists lip synch a lot - actually, I feel like Japanese artists lip synch a lot. :yes and Iza, Now! is my fave album too! that concert is seriously great, Irene you should def. check it out. :yes Everyone should actually! It was my first Arashi con, I love it! :weep LOVE SHO IN FINEBOYS! :smitten (is it me - or do all the cover boys have like - the same clothes? lol :bchuck) and i love his coat in the H previews! :yes |
bad live singing > lip-synching anyday anytime for me. at least they're attempting to do live. KT's most live con is QOP, however, it's not 100% live. more like 80%-85%. i know many japanese artists lip-synch, especially Johnny's, lol (...remember YamaPi's microphone stint for "Daite Senorita" on MS?) but i appreciate the effort of live performing nevertheless.
i'll probably borrow Iza con from my friend the next time i see her. wanna see it in HQ~ :) |
omg i totally loved yamapi's little incident on MS :weep that was so funny. i love "daite senorita" :weep

LOL. my friend sang "Daite Senorita" & copied the whole incident on Karaoke. it was pretty genius. :P it would've been ~EPIC PERFORMANCE~ if he actually dropped it. oh mannnn. :laugh
ouuu, nice singles you got there, Karen, :) |
Quote:
T_T |
tbh, i'd rather have a japanese artist lipsynch than deliver a terrible live performance. :shrug but if we're talking about korea....I'D NEVER LET THEM GET AWAY WITH IT! :lmfao Also, I can't watch Yamapi's lip synching thing. I tried to 3 years ago, but i get second hand embarrassment. :weep
80% OF YOUR ALLOWANCE?! X_X lol Karen! the single's look cool though! could you scan the covers? I don't know if HQ covers have come out yet.... it'd be a big help! :yes |
Quote:
HQ covers were released a while back ago on the ARASHI LJ communities . You probably have missed them out but it's ok I can scan them for sure :D I will upload them tomorrow because I'm doing something now |
ahhh my believe single finally came! :smitten it's so pretty :weep

I know cos er I have it alongside with the other 2 CD + DVD's :innocent :dead2 I look forward to see a pic of yours with One Love :yes EDIT - Music Lovers performances download Love so sweet - http://shokim.livejournal.com/58679.html Believe - http://shokim.livejournal.com/59095.html Special medley of Happiness, Kansha Kangeki Ame Arashi , Sakura Sake & Beautiful days - http://shokim.livejournal.com/58597.html they should have done truth , Kaze no Mukou e , One Love T_T .... I know I'm greedy :lmfao |
sorry to double post but as what Kaori requested from me , scans of the guys's Believe / KNK CD + DVD's singles
Type A - http://sharebee.com/0dcb74aa Type B - http://sharebee.com/603e17cc The reason as to why the centre of the OBI's white & blue is because it's Taiwan press . A Japan press wouldn't have that & avex Taiwan spelt out Kumori Nochi , Kaisei in Chinese |
thanks for the scans Karen. i need one of those for my iTunes. xD
i kinda dislike the avex obi on the overseas versions. they could've made them pretty like the Japan versions. @_@;; |
Quote:
the funny thing's that it didn't happened when avex Taiwan printed the OS presses for both editions of NEWS's color in that both the Taiwan & Japan OBI's are the same no blue & white centre parting which's weird . I know cos I saw both OS presses of color being sold here at the local HMV but stock has left the buildling for both & the Japan press for both editions are the only ones standing T_T |
Aw ~ Karen you're so sweet!
Thanks a lot!!! :shughug Speaking of the single - IT'S AT NUMBER 5 TODAY!!! @_@ I'm so happy it is charting so well! and yes! HQ of the MUSIC LOVERS perfs! It is gonna be so nostalgic to see Lss performed again. :weep |
#5?! :cool
i always love seeing love so sweet performances :weep btw, you guys gotta see the "re(mark)able" performance from AAA :smitten i love when arashi rap :love |
^OMGOMGOMGOMG!! :love
I'm DLing this con right now~ |
omfg. :thud
i've been watching AAA2 and omg. it's amazing. i can't believe what i'm saying - but it PWNS Time con soooo baad!!!!!!!! this concert is seriously amazing! the open air arena just adds so much energy! the crowd and Arashi are going INSANE!!!! this concert is so awesome~ also, i know i'm late - but i was reading the results of the drama awards and wtf. how did kami no shizuku win number one? no offense to anyone who liked it, but the votes were totally rigged omg. how can a drama with single digit ratings win best drama and best actor. uta no onii-san wasn't the best - sure, but really? it lost to kami no shizuku? :rolleyes |
i didn't even get pass episode 1 with kami no shizuku. i just didn't like it :shrug uta no onii-san was very enjoyable, so it should have gotten some awards or something (i still gotta watch the last 2 episodes though, lol)
yea, i think i've practically seen all the performances from AAA, and it's just TOO AMAZING :thud arashi knows how to put on a show, seriously. :weep :smitten |
^it's a hell of a show!
everyone go watch/buy this DVD OK!!!! i loved the acoustic perf of Subarashiki Sekai! one of my fave songs by them! they all sounded so great w/ the live band!! and then they moved right into tomadoinagara, another of my faves! :weep this set list is killing me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :smitten also aiba played the harmonica! i was so happy omg! :D i guess that means his lungs are doing MUCH better! :yes |
there's a new preview of "smile" with actual scenes, lol. jun and yui are adorable together. but omg, they showed this one scene where jun is running in the rain at night crying, and a police car passes right by him (i think it was chasing after him). soooooo sad :weep jun looks extremely hot in the rain for some reason. same in HYD, lol.
|
FYI, no one takes the Nikkan Sports Drama Grand Prix awards that seriously since it's FAN VOTES. Maou won a lot of awards from that, but got nothing at the Television Drama Academy Awards (ROOKIES got most of the awards).
the Television Drama Academy Awards haven't been announced for this season yet. |
you're welcome Kaori & I'm not downloading/watching the AAA 2008 online for obvious reasons or else Cliff will go outta business :lmfao

:shrug
i realize that i'm happy as long as they keep releasing. what with KAT-TUN's new album and this new single, I'm excited! Too bad NEWS still isn't sounding interesting! |
for me, all 3 are doing good this year (with arashi being the best of course) but hey, that's just me and my VERY weird music taste :laugh
|
^lol - i wouldn't say WEIRD.
its just my personal opinion. i'm waiting for NEWS to release something interesting! at least Arashi and KAT-TUN are doing great! :heart I'm thinking we'll be getting the single sometime in May. :yes |
Quote:
somemore if the singles were to continue to sound great (imo) , then the album tracks might be overshadowed but yeah that's my 2 cents worth |
i think they're going to release a best-of (no original album), so there won't be any new "album" tracks...maybe a bonus track or something. it seems like they're heading to towards that direction, since they have 4 singles, with 2 of them being double A-sides.
...however, i don't know how they'll handle Ohno's solo song being a "single" in the album. maybe there will be a solo section somewhere with the others too. |
