well, gee, that makes me feel old. :<
it was only like what, 3-4 years ago?
but yeah, i started noticing a wave of new JE fans around 2005-2006, so...i guess it's not that common to see people not interested in ~DRUNK DIVA~ & Notti.
but imo, they made NEWS more interesting. people complain about how they don't want those 2 back members, but say...oh, but "NEWS is boring". i'm like, "WELL...THEY COULD BE MORE INTERESTING WITH THOSE 2 BACK."
it's not like they're 2 completely new people. they
were part of NEWS but got into trouble. they're human.
...whoa, sorry, i'm ranting. xD
