re-posted from Shota's 1st thread

who seriously's the one that style/dress Miliyah ? she's always in the weirdest outfits everytime I see her D:

I don't think that Miliyah outfits looks that bad but it isn't the best outfits.
The sigle is still climbing in the charts. Today it is at the 3 with 4.194 sold singles.
Today I have get an e-mail that my CD's from and with Shota-kun are shipped to me. Ahhh, I can't wait to get them

EDIT:
There is a little typing error in the thread titel. The i between the A and the s is missing ^-^

awesome . HMV Japan shipped out my copy last night together with another single that I have gotten for my younger sister

I should get it either on Mon or Tue since they used EMS

4, 30,685, 30,685, FOREVER LOVE, , , 清水翔太×加藤ﾐﾘﾔ

yay :D

Love Forever's weekly debut position was #5 so woo hoo

The cover and the tracklist of Journey are available :)

I'm happy that Forever Love is in the top 5. ^-^

x-megumi-x thanky for the tracklist and the cover. Why did Family get a pv? I would love to see a pv for Kaze no You ni . It's a great songs and I like it more then Family -_-

Oh I have seen that Journey is on CD Japan now.

THIS

I also wanted a PV for Kaze no You ni & like you , I'm surprised that FAMILY got a PV like really ? o.o

boo that Love Forever's axed out T_T

Oh, thank you! :) Sounds good <3

is Let's Groove a hidden track ? o.o It's not listed officially on CDJapan's website o.o

I just have a feeling Journey will be an intro but I could be wrong about it

& oh the cover for the album's cool

I really hope the album will be something to look out for as I frankly was not impressed with Umbrella as I was so bored with it

hopefully Journey will be better musically . If so then this will be the 1st Shota album I wll consider to get

preorders links are up for Journey

CD http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/detailview.html?KEY=SRCL-7229 ; 1st press editions available but not much left . Only 2 copies are left & counting D:

CD + DVD http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/detailview.html?KEY=SRCL-7227

Bigger cover of Journey

http://i45.tinypic.com/23j3m3d.jpg

I hope this is good too, Shimizu has a great voice!

the concept of the cover is great, but there is something missing...

o.o

like ... airplane ? :laugh

I don't know , you can see a lot of luggages in the cover of Journey so yeah xD

2nd thread!

wow, the sales isn't bad.. how much did love forever sell?

and YAY! for new album!! :D :D

Love Forever sold more on the 1st week ie. 34,094 copies but it debuted at #5

i think airplane is a great idea...
hmm...if the background is more real...like in the airport or plane runway, i think it will be great

Thanks for the bigger cover! You know...a plane wouldn't look so bad :laugh.

xD

yeah I thought so too . Inclusion of an airport in the cover will be nice as well haha :roflmao

anyway I'm sad that only FOREVER LOVE is included in Journey T_T

they should have included Love Forever too . That will be for kicks to have both songs in the album

^^^ aha.. but the sales is okay so far.. :D

"If this album can be a companion on the listeners' journey (through life), and if my music can take them from place to place, even for just a little while, I'll be happy," Shota says.

I ripped it :)
http://www.mediafire.com/?uzm4nmgzww2

thanks Aurelie :D , I'm off to download it now

thanks for the discovery and sharing...

Thx for the link ^-^
Sakura sounds nice but it isn't something special.

Sakura easily become my fav shota song...!!!
i play it in repeat for about 50 times today...i like it, very relaxing, his voice is really soft and emotional, i like it...

It's beautiful <3

On a random note, I don't see Shota as hot or anything, he's just too cute, like a brother!

Yuki uploaded a few other songs from the new album on dailymotion :heart
Journey
Starlight
Kimi ga Ita Kara
Close to you
Let's Groove

O____________O

omg Aurelie can you PLEASE rip & upload EVERYTHING from those dailymotion links you have posted ? D:

Journey wouldn't be out til 3rd March but more or less the whole album has already leaked out .___.

EDIT ok the only tracks that're not leaked out yet are

- CREAM
- DAYS

Oooooo, thanks!

I ripped the songs :yes
http://www.mediafire.com/?zzjdrmyc3nz

I didn't heard the full songs but what I hear sounds good. Can't wait till I can preorder the album. <3

Is it just me or did the thread title change? @_@

haha Temmy

I asked Zemus to change it that's why xD . I was using Ashiteru prior to the announcement of Journey so yeah :P

anyway what Aurelie has uploaded for everyone to download/listen , I really like the album tracks of Journey . It's frankly way better than Umbrella which I did not like in any single bit for some weird reason o.o

Let's Groove is hot <3

"Forever Love" sell 11,123 copies in the second week. With the first week it sold 41,808

^not bad...i think it can reach 45k in the end of the day

Nice :D
won't outsell Love Forever tho XD

not sure if you guys notice but on the Journey cover , you can see a stamp on it

http://i46.tinypic.com/ay52kh.jpg

if you look closer , it's stamped/dated 3rd March which's the release date for Journey

I knew it! XD

Anywho, I didn't notice that stamp dated March 3rd o.o

Some Shota news & he's coming back to USA to perform !

He will make a guest appearance at Gordon Chambers and Friends perform R&B and Soul Classic in New York City. This event will take place at SOB's on March 2nd 2010.

In 2007, Shota made his first appearance in the US at the famous Apollo Theater. There he received much acclaim for his performance and the next spring he went major with Sony Music. His third appearance in New York City was headlining JAPAN DAY FESTIVAL performing in front of thousands of New Yorkers. This will be his third performance in the US, the day before his second album Journey is released in Japan.

http://www.jame-world.com/us/news.html

ah so cool X_____X

omg, he's gonna be so close to me. 0_0

haha yes I notice xD

but wow he performed at the famous Apollo Theater , it's impressive & it's the same theatre that Ken Hirai once performed at too

is SOB near where you live ? D:

not exactly, but it's a short (kinda) train ride away.

yeah, to perform at the Apollo and NOT get booed off the stage is really amazing.

ah I see

what's SOB exactly ? is it a theatre just like the Apollo Theatre or it's a club/pub/bar ? :shrug

sorry I'm not sure as well I'm not living in NYC :laugh

haha, that's alright, how could i blame you. xD
well, i've never been there myself, but yeah you're actually right, it's kinda like a bar/small night club of some kind.

EDIT: take a look here. http://nymag.com/listings/bar/sobs/

i'm wondering, is there anymore info on this? like do you think there could be a chance i could go? i'm really considering missing school the next day (i'm guessing i'll get out of there late). i'm just wondering if there's age restrictions?

oh thanks for that

well I really don't know much more info about this . Hopefully more info will surface as time goes by

it will be cool if you can really see Shota perform in the flesh , that will be something great to look out for

wow...so lucky for american fans

Aw, why not Cali Shota D: I hate NY :grumpy They get all the fun.

@Karen: i think i'll stop by the place sometime this week soon and ask about the event.

Sakura PV :)

I like Sakura now much more. The first time I heard this osng I was thinking that it is nice but nothing speciel. But now I love it<3
And thank your for the PV. I kinda like it although it's a very simple video

thanks Aurelie , I'm going to see it now

argh why this's not included in the Journey DVD tracklist T_T T_T T_T T_T

the PV for Family feat. KEN THE 390, SHUN & COMA-CHI is included but not the song which's so strange D:

What a boring PV, bleh. I adore the song though.

lol yeah the PV for Sakura is boring zzz

no wonder it wasn't included in Journey's DVD LMAO

I wonder why a PV was made for it anyway o.o but the song's still good I'm not going to lie

yeah the pv is so simple and so boring...
but the song is a pure love

I think they should have made it interesting or made no PV at all, to be completely honest.

yeah if not do a short version of it haha xD

then again the Sakura PV's not going to be included in the Journey album

might as well

I'm interested to see the PV for Family now o.o

I still find it amusing that the song itself is axed out from the CD tracklist but not in the DVD tracklist

ehhh o.o o.o

Nice! He's back to USA again!

ugh ugh.. haven't listened to Sakura yet.. Both my PC & notebook got infected by virus -_____-

lol it's ok Flo

Journey will be out next Wed anyway xD :laugh

01 72.00 清水翔太 - Journey

ah good good good

I don't think album competition's that tough for next week so hopefully Journey is able to do well/nicely for Shota :D

I hope that he will got the #1 in the charts <3

^me too! how did his last album chart? and how good are his singles on the charts?

Umbrella sold 56,442 in the first week and after fifteen weeks it sold 120,771.

^ooh that's pretty good for a debut album. and a really GOOD one at that. xD did it get #1?

It ranked at #2.

^ooh that's still an accomplishment. especially for a debut album. :yes

yay you can preorder the OS press of Shota's Journey via HMV HK :D

http://www.hmv.com.hk/product/japanese.asp?sku=791239

doesn't look like Sony BMG is making the edition with the DVD o.o but I hope they will

if not it's ok xD

Shota was on this great show called Bokura no Ongaku yesterday & he performed some of his hits in line for promo for Journey

you can view all the clips here

^ Thanks! :luv2

The Forever Love live is just :thud:love And I love it when he sings song like Ano Kane wo Narasu no wa Anata . I think his voice fits very well.

Umbrella was released in both CD & CD + DVD's , OS press wise so yeah

that's really cool & it's #1 today on the Oricon daily albums chart :D

has the PV for Family feat. KEN THE 390, SHUN & COMA-CHI leaked out already ? o.o

^ I don't think so. KEN THE 390 has a new PV featuring Shota though.



And I'm glad he's #1 today :heart

YES, he is the number one today ^-^. Please hold this position for the rest of the week.
I like this promo Pic

#1? Go Shota :luv2

(lol i almost called him shita XD)

-- -- -- -- *2 *1→*1　清水翔太 「Journey」

*1　57,155　清水翔太

The third pointless award goes to Shimizu Shota, who reached #1 this week with his album "Journey," selling 57,000 copies. This makes Shota the first solo artist born in the Heisei Period (1989-) to have a #1 album. Shimizu's birth date of the 29th of February, 1989 means that he was born 50 days into the Heisei period, which began with the previous emperor, Hirohito (now posthumously known as Shouwa).

LOL I saw that on aramatheydidn't , it's a weird thing o.o

but anyway congrats to Shota's 1st #1 album :D

& oh it doesn't seem that Sony BMG Taiwan will be making both editions of Journey when it's out this Fri

but you never know

I work on my album review on Journey soon :P

57k, i think the number is so similar to umbrella number...
not bad..way to go shota
this album deserve more than that, i keep listening to it...

Umbrella's 1st week sales was 56,442 & it debuted at #2 overall in the weekly chart

Journey did better than Umbrella in small ways or another but hey it's Shota's 1st #1 album so yup :)

loled at the award though. Oricon does seem to make up new achievements everytime. But I guess how's it goes with every company like Billboard.

http://www.cosgan.de/images/kao/musik/k055.gif to your #1 album Shota.

lol yeah I think Oricon's running out of ideas -_-

How cute :laugh

Congrats Shota! :heart

Here are the numbers for the second week. This week Journey sold 24,133 and reached the #6 in the charts.

And I still wait for Journey to come to me T_T. I hope it will come next week.

I'm not sure why this time round Sony BMG HK & Taiwan didn't make a CD + DVD edition of Journey o.o

they did that for both editions of Umbrella though hmm

but it's ok , his PVs are not that great to begin with , the music matters more :yes

Nice sales!
How much did Umbrella sell at the end?

Could someone share Journey's PVs for me?
I think i only have Forever Love
